Join us in another Unplugged show! No editing, no deletes, just pure unadulterated watch talk. Oh, and for the first time, the CP7 boys are enjoying a beer (or two!) live on air.

With all the uncertainty in the watch world right now, the hype looks to have well and truly died down; is it finally safe for us enthusiasts to have some fun, and not have to worry about the investment-inspired "hype-class" polluting the hobby?
That question has inspired this show... don't judge a watch by its cover, can we have fun and wear the watches we want… irrespective of what anyone else says?

So temporarily tear up your Rolex or Patek Philippe waiting lists, and let’s get into some other brands, for our fix of horological fun. MB&F, Bell & Ross, Maurice Lacroix, Franck Muller, and even Ulysse Nardin all get put to the test CP7 style!

So buckle up and enjoy the ride, as the boys get into another fun filled, and thought provoking CP7 Unplugged show.

A very special thanks to Alon Ben Joseph from Amsterdam's legendary Ace Jewelers for loaning us the review watches.

Summer is here and it's holiday season! But which watch do you take with you on your vacation? Is one enough?
Inspired by Parm’s recent trip to Singapore and Malaysia, where he had three different holiday experiences on one trip, the boys decide which watches would fit in for each stage.
Listen in as they discuss which watches to take on a holiday for (1) travelling and sights, (2) a city break, and (3) the ultimate summer holiday, the beach vacation.
To make this a challenge worthy of the CP7 boys, the usual suspects like Patek Philippe, Rolex, Tudor, Omega, Cartier, or IWC would NOT be counted. This challenge allows them to highlight brands or models that aren’t as high profile but carry some serious watch credentials, particularly for a summer holiday. So forget your Submariner, Speedmaster, Black Bay, or Santos, and let’s take a refreshing look at something different for the most fun time of the year.
We also find out what the boys have been up to, which includes an exciting merchandise collaboration with Totte from REM Straps, and a catch-up with listeners of the show, and top guys, The Watch Brothers Neil and Mark.
So Buckle up and enjoy the ride in this special summer show which should heat up your summer holiday watch choices for the season ahead!!!

Back by popular demand, CP7 goes unplugged and unedited one more time. With it being halfway through the year and inspired by a review watch, the guys talk about their watch goals for this year and maybe the next. We get some real open conversation, and some reflective thinking in seeing how their habits have changed, over the course of time.
So what is on their wishlists? Has Andy got a new itch for Tudor, is the Rolex at risk? Talking of Tudor did Parm really say he's warming to the new Tudor Ranger?! There's only one way to find out.
Budget, plays an important role in any watch purchase, and where can you find a good price and high quality in one go? Could it be Seiko? It is a brand loved by many and looked down on by some but nobody can deny its versatility. Find out the boys' take on that most posing of questions.
Is vintage Cartier another genre worth looking into and why is the Omega Speedmaster said to be the most important watch ever made?
So buckle up and enjoy the ride, and most importantly enjoy this very special unplugged edition.

Gérald Genta is a name that needs no introduction to any watch enthusiast the world over. His designs have shaped the luxury watch world over the last few decades with iconic watch designs such as the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, Patek Philippe Nautilus and the Omega Constellation, amongst many others.
This show was inspired by the recent reissue of the Credor Locomotive to mark the 50th anniversary of the luxury Japanese watch brand usually associated with Seiko. But did you know that it was Genta who designed it? Ironically for one of the brands that had led to the quartz crisis which had crippled his beloved Swiss watch industry. So, as it says in the title was this his guilty pleasure? Find out as the CP7 boys give their thoughts on this very polarising design, and what it really meant to Genta.
Of course, it's not a CP7 show without a challenge and today the guys pick their favourite 3 Genta pieces outside of the obvious Royal Oak and Nautilus.
Brace yourselves for an exciting announcement too as the podcast evolves into Phase 2 of its roadmap which can hopefully take the pod to a whole new level.
So buckle up and enjoy the ride for an unforgettable show about the Maestro himself, Gérald Genta, and our own very special news.

Join us as we meet and talk to the dapper and charismatic CEO of Fears Watches, Nicholas Bowman-Scargill.
How did this former city banker, PR Executive, and Marketing man end up becoming a watchmaker for Rolex and eventually end up reigniting one of the UK’s most historical watch brands, Fears?

Take and inside look at what it took for Nicholas to not only restart his great, great, great grandfather’s watch brand which had to shut it’s doors in 1976, but also live up to the company’s historic heritage and turn it into a modern and exciting watch brand in it’s own right today.

Is British watchmaking back with a bang? In what way is the US market so important to British watch brands? Why is mallard green the best named dial colour ever? Buckle up and enjoy the ride as Nicholas speaks with a determination, ambition, passion and of course that witty English sense of humour, which is certain to impress, amuse and most importantly, inspire you.
