Scarlett Baker
Scarlett Baker is a writer and editor, specialising in fashion, watches and social commentary. Committed to championing a space for women in the world of watches, she got the hots for haute horlogerie at the airport, aged six, lusting over a fruity array of FlikFlaks.
Scarlett previously sat as the Editor of Man About Town and Editor-in-Chief of The Next Hour, campaigning to bring watchmaking to younger audiences. Currently, she is serving as the managing editor of heist-out, and watch editor at large for Wonderland and Man About Town, as well as continuing to contribute to GQ, Esquire, The Times, Oracle Time, and Something About Rocks Further on a freelance basis.
DAVID VAUCHER
David Vaucher is a Paris-based energy consultant who has had an interest in watches dating back to when he was eight years old, and a true passion for watches that took hold well over a decade ago in Saskatchewan, Canada, while he was waiting for a field operation to begin. He is now The Real Time Show’s “Resident Provocateur”, writing the words for our Audicle series.
This passion has taken the form not only of much buying and selling (of course), but also several larger projects in the watch space, such as attempting to start a micro-brand, and to raise funds for a bankrupt French watch company. When he's not excavating Chrono24, you can find him retro-gaming, or trying to learn the guitar by mastering John Mayer's song catalog (if he could meet the man himself one day, he'd ask him about his most favorite Seiko in his collection).
