James StaceyGUEST
But yeah, you know, my goal is al- or at least when I was a writer, my goal would be to start the day as late as possible.
James StaceyGUEST
Uh, that's doesn't really roll around anymore 'cause your nights will always go late.
James StaceyGUEST
Um, you always have a, an event or, or if you don't have an event, you have stories to write by the time you get home, images to edit, that sort of thing.
James StaceyGUEST
So a day, a day in the life, uh, for me would be, you know, get up and see where, what the kind of ending status was of the day previous in the New York time zone, how the stories are doing, if the website needs anything scheduled, if, you know, if it needs another set of eyes.
Episode 53: TGN and Hondinkee's James Stacey is here!

one at a time?
James StaceyGUEST
I do believe, especially when you're starting something, I'm very junior in my woodworking phase.
James StaceyGUEST
So I want to learn how to do things the most laborious way where it's perfect.
James StaceyGUEST
No corners cut, no skill set that someone who's done it for 15 years gets to use.
James StaceyGUEST
And if I was teaching someone to drive now, I would want them to learn manual.
James StaceyGUEST
I'd want them to learn, you know, without the without the the computers that can keep you in your lane and all that kind of stuff.

And has the industry gained something from that evolution, maybe lost something? And is there anything that you genuinely miss about the old days?
The Business of Watches [030] Q&A Episode - Your Business Questions Answered By The Hodinkee Team
J
3:58James StaceyGUEST
One, I would say we aren't at the tech scope of 3D printing, certainly not household 3D printing where you could print a movement.
J
4:05James StaceyGUEST
You know, with Barrelhand's most recent watch, you have the ability to print that watch.
J
4:11James StaceyGUEST
But it's, you know, it's like a blank that you could put a strap on and have an idea of its size and that sort of thing.
J
4:16James StaceyGUEST
And it's, you know, the idea is that it's part of a collection of CAD possibilities that could help them evolve the watch through the community of people who need or love the watch or possibly both, depending on your ability to go to space in the future.
J
4:30James StaceyGUEST
I think more specifically, like the idea of... movement manufacturer being democratized.

It's a great time for lacrosse right now to join up because all the men's players are in build-up.
J
88:37James StaceyGUEST
So we have some great athletes, some great players, so you can go watch and learn from them.
J
88:46James StaceyGUEST
There's only four teams, so Ponsonby Ponies, Eastern Chiefs, Harbour Hawks or Western Wildcats.
J
88:52James StaceyGUEST
So I'll just put that into Facebook and find a club and Everyone's very welcoming.
