The Grey NATO – 201 – Windup Chicago With The Worn & Wound Podcast
The TGN boys are fresh back from an incredible trip to Chicago for the Windup Watch Fair and this week’s episode features the second half of our extended live recording with Zach and Blake of The Worn & Wound Podcast. That’s right – the second half. If you want the whole chat you’ll need to check out the first half on Worn & Wound’s feed here.
But that’s just the main topic for today’s episode as Jason and James dig into a couple of recent watch additions (Citizen and a certain Seiko GMT, no less), Jason’s pre-Windup dive trip with a few buddies from Chicago, the merch scenario, and a whole lot more. It was such a blast being in Chicago and getting to meet so many of you.
We hope you love the episode, and thanks so much to everyone who stopped by and said hi – don’t forget to listen to the first half, which is linked above and below.

James, Jason, thanks for everything. Such an absolute pleasure meeting, hanging out, and diving with you. Cannot wait for CHI ‘23, or whenever our paths may cross next.
Also thanks for the humbling shout re: the TGN “expedition flag.” I think this could be great fun! We definitely need a hashtag... Who has ideas? I’m thinking #TGNexplorer. Works in the backyard as well as on an 8000m peak.
Also, Miyota have a new flyer GMT movement out, the 9075 - so there are going to be some awesome GMTs from microbrands in the next little while.
