The article gives readers a glimpse of what was on their wrists—but keeps the wishlist picks for the episode itself.
What is this Fratello Talks episode about?
It is a conversation about the vintage and neo-vintage watches the three Fratello contributors have been eyeing and hunting for online. It is a personal wishlist discussion, not a ranked list or a buying guide that compares models on shared criteria. Fratello’s episode article, published August 29, 2024, does not disclose the selections.
Which watches are named in the article?
The article identifies three watches in its wrist check. These are what the hosts were wearing, not the wishlist watches they discuss in the episode.
| Contributor | Wrist-check watch |
|---|---|
| RJ | Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo 11 50th Anniversary LE |
| Thomas | VPC Type 37HW in Dove Grey |
| Nacho | 1961 Omega Seamaster ref. 14762, described as having a caramelized dial and its original beads-of-rice bracelet |
The article says that a Seamaster ref. 14762 could be found for well under €1,000 when it was written in August 2024. That is a dated editorial observation, not a current price guide or a verified valuation.

Does the episode reveal the hosts’ wishlist picks?
Not in the available episode article or public video listing. The video listing repeats the broad premise—that Nacho, RJ, and Thomas share vintage and neo-vintage favorites—but does not provide a transcript or name the watches. The public video listing therefore does not resolve which models made their wishlists. The wrist-check watches above should not be mistaken for those picks.
What can a listener expect?
The episode is best approached as a look at the hosts’ individual interests and online watch hunting, rather than as a recommendation of particular watches. Fratello’s invitation to readers is: “What vintage watches have caught your eye recently? Is there one specific model you’ve been on the hunt for?”

One reader comment on the episode article offers a personal example: a 1954 Tudor Oyster-Prince ref. 7809 with a Greenland Expedition dial. That is a commenter’s stated interest, not a wishlist pick disclosed by Nacho, RJ, or Thomas, nor an independently verified account of the watch.
