TVH - @vintageseiko about... vintage Seiko!

Enter The Vintage Hen-House, pick a perch, and listen to Benoît (@Petitesecondes) and his co-hosts chat to vintage watch collectors from all over the world about their collection, the vintage watch world, and many other things. Let's talk about the good, the bad and the ugly stories that we can all share about collecting vintage watches! Host: Benoît @Petitesecondes Guest: Paul @vintageseiko also known as: @seikobusters, @aussiepogueand co-founder of @two_vintage_seikos In this episode, Benoît takes a sightseeing tour of what the vintage Seiko watches have to offer to the aspiring and eager collector. He doesn’t have a clue about Seiko watches. Paul (@vintageseiko) is the perfect guide, as he walks us through his collection, his experience, some personal stories, and the vintage Seiko community. We also get to know what the perfect vintage Seiko watches are for “not so usual” watch collecting profiles. Get ready to take a very deep dive: have a pen and some paper ready to take some notes, and open an internet connection (if you can) to see the watches we talk about in this episode. It’s a long chat but don’t worry: Benoit and his dog provide an intermission, and Snow the hen is never far away to keep you entertained… Theme music by Jotunn @picodon_conan Special effects free of copyright thanks to the following websites: Zapsplat.com, fesliyanstudios.com and freesound.org.
