The Deep Track Podcast: Ep. 5 – Matt Farah

This week we’re excited to welcome Matt Farah of The Smoking Tire to The Deep Track podcast. Matt has just released a new collaboration watch with our friends at Nodus, a second iteration of their Canyon watch, this time with a sunset orange dial. We chat with Matt about the design process of this collaboration, including many of the important details that make this watch unique. Of course, there’s plenty of car talk along the way, and even some of Matt’s thoughts about the new Porsche 911 S/T and how it compares to his own custom 718 Spyder. 

Matt provides his insights on collecting in both the watch and automotive spaces, as well what kinds of things motivate his personal enthusiasm for each. There is a refreshing level of honesty here from Matt, who is happy to confront true motivation, and accepting the things that drive it, whether fashionable or not. It’s a healthy approach that we celebrate around here.
