In this episode of The Watchlist Club, I sit down with Nirupesh Joshi, Co-Founder of Bangalore Watch Company (BWC), to go deep on every single collection they've ever built — from the Peninsula outdoor diver to the space-qualified Apogee Karman Line, the aviation-inspired MACH 1, and the cricket-celebrating Cover Drive series.
