On this week’s super-sized episode we have our first interview!  I first heard of Olivia Briggs through Grand Seiko’s GS9 Club’s newsletter.  We talk about just a few of the things she collects and is passionate about… There’s a lot of watch talk (we go deep into Grand Seiko) but we also talk about Japanese lacquer, the idea of intentionality, fountain pens, the food and coffee scene in New York City, and her love for custom keyboards and keycap sets.  She’s even designed some of her own custom keycap sets under the moniker, Olivia++.
