Aaron Beale, is a husband,  a dad, a craftsman of fine furniture and the Vice President of Student Craft at Berea College, but what he really wants to talk about is watches.  We discuss  his love for beautiful and functional timepieces and the origins of this passion. We delve into deeper questions about the intersection of form, function and aesthetics, and even muse about the role of time keeping itself in this digital age where seemingly everything—except for maybe a mechanical timepiece—is disposable. We also touch on the notion of the watch as a marker of status and the keeper not just of time, but of a legacy. And, oh by the way, does anyone really know how all those gears and springs work anyway?
