A Day With Andrew Morgan aka "The Talking Hands"

They say you should never meet your heroes - but after spending some time with the "Talking Hands" himself, Mr. @AndrewMorgan from @watchfinderofficial I can safely recommend you tell those people to take a hike! This is my recap of the Watchfinder Seattle Watch Event! @Max was also in attendance and he makes a guest appearance in the video as well ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘

I was lucky to meet Andrew during the New York stage of his trip. And I agree, meet your heroes... If they are Andrew Morgan ๐Ÿ™‚

It is a LIP Mach 2000. A vintage quartz version. Designed in the 70s by Roger Tallon who among many other things designed the French high speed trains. The "classic version" would be the mechanical chronograph. LIP still sells reissues.

What are these guitar photos doing on WatchCrunch? And they're the dumbest guitars I've ever seen. They're missing three tuning pegs. And look at those tiny frets. What's the purpose of having the clock face on a guitar, so you can time out your widdly solos? Even my Seiko SMW006A metronome watch thinks this is stupid.

Oh wait, that actually is a watch. That's very distinctive. Never mind.

I used to like Andrew and Tom's commentary, but I was really annoyed by the 'this microphone, that microphone' format. It was a big improvement to be able to see them, and now Andrew has his own show too.

I'm a fan of their work, so the more avenues and the more topics they explore, the better (for me) since they're proper watch nerds like us ๐Ÿค
