In Conversation With Phil Toledano And Mike Nouveau | Hodinkee Radio

Our guests this week are Phil Toledano and Mike Nouveau. Phil is no stranger to Hodinkee, having been on Talking Watches and this podcast previously. Most recently, he’s the co-founder of Toledano & Chan, which just released its first watch, the brutalist B1. Mike is a vintage dealer and the king of WatchTok – he’s got hundreds of thousands of followers across social media who tune into his daily updates on life as a dealer in New York City. The horological odd couple are friends and collectors, and they just love watches. We talk about vintage Cartier, Breitling, Patek, and pre-Daytonas, as well as the first release from Toledano’s new brand. Along the way, we all get in a few friendly jabs.
