Join Accutron for a journey into the life of a living legend that has changed the face of music and to explore his thoughts on today’s music industry including music education.
The Accutron Show is the first full-fledged podcast by a watch brand and is a series of approximately 40-minute conversations hosted by Entertainment Reporter Bill McCuddy (Fox News), Journalist David Graver (Cool Hunting, New York Times, Vogue), and Editor Scott Alexander (GQ, Playboy) about Americana culture and its evolution and expressions through time.
To celebrate Accutron’s 62nd birthday, a true music icon joins the conversation, the one and only Nile Rodgers. Rodgers is a Grammy-winning composer, producer, arranger and guitarist who’s been inducted into both the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. He is the co-founder of CHIC and the Chairman of the Songwriters Hall of Fame, Rodgers pioneered a musical language that generated chart-topping hits like “Le Freak,” (the biggest selling single in the history of Atlantic Records) and sparked the advent of hip-hop with “Good Times.”
“I don’t remember going to the same school for more than a few weeks. But all schools had standardized music education, they all had school orchestras and each school assigned to me a different instrument I had to learn to play. By the time I grew up I became a self-contained band, doing all my orchestration, writing every part of every instrument myself.”
The Accutron Show Podcast, available to listen on Apple Music, Spotify, Stitcher and other major streaming platforms including YouTube.
Embodying its tagline, “It’s Not A Timepiece. It’s A Conversation Piece.” Accutron reignites another chapter of conversation with a third season of The Accutron Show podcast. Reaching #42 on Apple Podcasts in the” Society & Culture” category in the U.S., the podcast continues its exploration into American consumer culture with an outstanding line-up of influential guests.

Closing With Confidence: How Bailey's Fine Jewelry Achieved Outstanding Results With Wilkerson
When Trey Bailey, President and CEO of Bailey's Fine Jewelry, decided to close the Crabtree location in Raleigh, North Carolina after 15 years, he knew the decision needed to be handled with intention and professionalism. The goal was clear: exit the location while maintaining financial strength and honoring the store's legacy.
Having worked with Wilkerson successfully in the past, Bailey understood the value of their comprehensive approach. "They understood both the emotional and financial sides of the store closing sale," Trey explains. "Their reputation for professionalism, results and care made it a very easy decision."
The results exceeded expectations. Wilkerson helped Bailey's sell through significant inventory while maintaining the dignity of the closing process. "They don't just run a sale, they help close a chapter in the best way possible," Bailey says, strongly recommending Wilkerson to any jeweler facing a similar transition.
