It was great spending time with Skip @watchingsrq https://www.instagram.com/watchingsrq/?hl=en and having him on the podcast. Skip and Ernesto have known each other for many years. In fact, they’ve know each other before Ernesto had an Instagram account. These two met many years ago when Ernesto was searching for a mirrorless camera and was doing his due diligence stopping by various camera stores throughout the state of Florida. Ernesto noticed Skip’s watch, they ended up having a great conversation about watches, and the rest (as they say) is history. Skip is a true gearhead who has been fascinated with watches and photography from a young age. He has quite an eclectic watch collection with 133 timepieces. Please tune in to this episode to learn more about Skip’s unique collection and his thoughts as it pertains to photography and watches.
Skip, thank you again for joining us on Bezel Banter! I look forward to meeting up with you the next time I’m in your area for a coffee and a fun conversation about watches and photography!
