Talking With Eric Ku And Justin Gruenberg From Loupe This | Hodinkee Radio

We're thrilled to have two legendary collectors and dealers, Eric Ku and Justin Gruenberg, join the Hodinkee Radio podcast. In today's episode, we discuss the most recent auctions and the market more broadly, what dealers and auctions can do better, and get into the nitty-gritty with vintage Patek, Rolex, and Cartier. We also have a little fun – Tony gets both of the guys to tell him what watch they'd love to snag from the other's collection.
