In this episode we sit down with Daniel Sum, one of the founders of the famous Shanghai Watch Gang, to discuss how this group of collectors came about, how different Asian collectors are compared to their western counterparts, and if watch brands have the right approach to connect with them.
We also touch on the Shanghai Watch Festival and we bring back our previous guest Lung Lung Thun to talk about The Waiting List Podcast, which the pair recently launched along with their friend Alex.
