The Worn & Wound Podcast

Welcome to the 4th episode of Time On Track, covering round 3 of the 2023 Formula 1 season: the Australian GP at Albert Park. This round offered plenty of drama for Blake and Ricardo to dig into, from red flags galore, to a champion studded final podium. Lewis Hamilton matched his best result of last year, but it still wasn’t enough to reel in the Max Verstappen in the RB19. A strong showing from...

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, the team has returned from Geneva (and Blake has his voice back) and they’re all set to discuss what they saw at Watches & Wonders. From new Carreras that TAG Heuer absolutely nailed, to an Ingenieur that was hotly debated on the show floor, there was a lot to see, and much of it is still sinking in for the editorial team. Be sure to check out the show notes...

First is a duo of Christopher Ward’s featuring their underrated SH21 in-hous...
