Watch U talking' about? - Episode 6 - Shock & Magnetism

Recorded 23rd, March 2024.
In today's episode we discuss the evils of magnetism, the consequences of living in wi-fi soup, and 'Will the airport x-ray machine ruin your watch's timing?'.
Ever wonder why watches have 'Jewels' as shock absorbers? What happens to the movement when you drop your watch? And exactly what is this 'Gauss' thing you keep hearing about?
To answer all these questions and so much more join us in today's talk, hosted by the Roldorf Cafe Podcast ‪@roldorfco‬
