Independent Thinking - Talking indie watchmaking with Minhoon Yoo & The Open Caseback

Another episode of the Independent Thinking Show for @FifthWrist Radio.

This is a place dedicate to showcasing the great people doing interesting and cool things in the world of horology.

In this episode, hosts Roman (@TimesRomanAU) and Michael (@woodswatchmaking) sit down for a chat with Korean independent watchmaker Minhoon Yoo (@minhoon_yoo) and horological commentator Mike from a terrific website we all like here - The Open Caseback (@theopencaseback).

Join us as for an open and honest conversation about independent watchmaking; Asian watchmaking culture; discovering your voice and design language as a new watchmaker, and the importance of cultivating collector communities (particularly when it comes to independent watchmaking).

As Minhoon is just beginning to make his watches (and Mike is one of his early customers), this episode should help inspire both makers and collectors to connect and collaborate.

If you are into collecting or learning more about independent horology and watchmaking - you will find this discussion interesting.
