Episode 5 of Watches and Politics explores one of the most fascinating intersections of horology and diplomacy: the watch as a political gift.
From monarchs gifting exquisite timepieces to visiting dignitaries, to presidents and diplomats sealing alliances with engraved watches, horology has long been a tool of soft power. These aren’t just tokens of appreciation—they are symbols of loyalty, legacy, and national prestige.
We’ll uncover stories from royal courts, presidential palaces, and international summits where watches spoke louder than words. You’ll hear how a single timepiece could embody an empire’s values, a regime’s message, or a nation’s cultural strength.
Stay tuned for Episode 6: Globalization and the Watch Industry—Trade, Sustainability, and Smartwatches in the 21st Century.
