From strong updates to core lines like the Riviera and the Clifton, through to 190 years of history, Andy gets the inside scoop on everything B&M.

• IWC’s Chief Design Officer, Christian Knoop, on updating the Ingenieur in 2025

  Christian Knoop is one of our favourite IWC people to speak to, and this week, we flashback to Geneva when Andy caught up with the talented Chief Design Officer to get the inside story on how the brand managed to sensitively add new sizes and complications — not to mention materials — to its popular Ingenieur while staying true to the values of the brand and the integrity of the watch. Before that, Felix and Andy pondered why the watches we forget about are sometimes the best and why the latest MB&F is so surprising.  This week’s episode is sponsored by IWC.

• IWC Museum Curator David Seyffer on the hidden history of the Ingenieur

  Continuing our exploration of IWC’s 2025 collection this week, Felix chats to IWC Museum Curator David Seyffer, a walking encyclopaedia of IWC history, who gives us a lesson on some of the lesser-known Ingenieur models which provide a precedent for the new materials and complications added to the collection this year. He also offers some insight into how generational shifts lead to changing tastes among watch collectors and the brand’s legacy of purpose-built instruments. Before this, Andy and Felix chat about Crocs and G-Shock, among other things.  This week’s episode is sponsored by IWC.
