aBlogtoWatch Weekly Podcast #59: Perils Of Collecting, Is In-House Worth It?, And Watches & Wonders

The Perils Of Collecting Advice, More Watches & Wonders Predictions, The Return Of Daniel Roth, And Is In-House Actually Good For The Watch Industry? On this week’s episode of aBlogtoWatch Weekly, Ariel, Rick, and David are joined by Sylvain Berneron from Breitling.
