    A Russian watchmaker, in his English workshop, makes a signature watch with a German name which to me feels Mexican, love it.

    Wow, I’ve just discovered your channel, and I can’t believe that this shop is in my local town of Bristol!! I’m definitely going to give them a visit. I’m also fascinated by your music, and have taken the plunge and bought super sexy,heartbreak album on 💿 cd. Can’t wait to listen to it. I was only watching brave beaters, then the algorithm pointed me to your channel. then the rest as they say is history!

    Top job Mary. I have heard of the Kopf before and it blew my noggin. I've known about the shop for a while but I've yet to visit as my wallet isn't heavy enough and like you I would likely walk out after buying something. Music and watches, these have been two of my favourite subject for some decades. Maybe one day I'll get to see you play live and yes I may well be the one clocking what you have on your wrist while mouthing the lyrics to one of your songs.

    Mary, this new channel is wonderful! As a subscriber to your music channel (and now this one), I was excited, but perplexed when the thumbnail for your first watch video came up. I hope you are allowed access to all sorts of watch places to make your mini (and maxi) docu-videos. The next time you are in the States, you might want to visit the National Watch and Clock museum in Columbia, PA and the RGM watch company in Mt. Joy, PA. These are both near Lancaster, PA which is the ancestral home of the Hamilton Watch Company whose beautiful factory building still stands (though it is apartments now). All three of these are less than a two hour drive from Martin's headquarters in Nazereth. Thank you for doing what you do!

    Mary, I think you should call up Attenborough, volunteer your services to do narration or audio books?
    You have a heckuva voice. It’s captivating. I know you’re a singer-songwriter, but your speaking voice, it has something that I can’t quite put my finger on that sucks the listener in. Smooth? Siren-like? That’s not quite right, but it’s as close as I can get at the moment.

I unfortunately will not subscribe to this channel. I am not a huge fan of watching videos having to do with things I can never possibly afford even if they’re about things that I enjoy. But I wish you all the best I hope this proves to be another success for you. Take care of yourself. Keep the advice for musicians coming.

    If you want other UK based watches to check out, Fears is based out of Bristol and has a distinct style. Christopher Ward is doing some cool stuff though much of their manufacturing is swiss. Bamford is London based - official customized for TAG Heuer but also a line of fun snoopy stuff.
