The Worn & Wound Podcast

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Garrett Jones and Ricardo Sime to the show to talk about potential alternatives to some of the most popular luxury watches. This idea, over the years, has proven to be one of the central questions and debates among watch enthusiasts. If you started your watch journey on the forums before Instagram was the central hub of the watch community, you no doubt came across countless threads asking for advice on alternatives to the most iconic (and often expensive) luxury watches. We look at two watches, the Rolex Submariner and the Cartier Tank, and come up with a handful of alternatives for each. We also discuss the merits of thinking about collecting in this way, and if an alternative can ever really scratch the itch for the “real” thing. We’d love to know your thoughts. Have you ever picked up one watch as an alternative to another? What do you think of our picks as substitutes for the Tank and Submariner? Let us know in the comments or find us on Inst
