The Grey NATO - 156 - All The New Watches We're Watching
After a few busy weeks with interviews, the TGN boys wanted to devote a show to some of the great-looking and recently announced watches that manages to catch their attention in the past couple of months. Ever heard of Tuseno? What about Clemence, Arken, or Dietrich? This episode covers the latest in interesting new watches from brands both old and new.
Stay in the mix for a strap recommendation from both Jason and James, Jason’s first impressions of the Seiko 6139 Pogue, a cable to power that sweet little Seiko Marathon clock, and a great set of Final Notes.

“Maybe that’s enlightenment enough: to know that there is no final resting place of the mind; no moment of smug clarity. Perhaps wisdom... is realizing how small I am, and unwise, and how far I have yet to go.” – Anthony Bourdain
Episodes like these are my favorite TGNs. The causal conversations about watches where it feels like I'm just listening in on two guys chatting. I also never tire of James getting fired up (people complaining about the Brew being sold out). Keep bringing the heat. The real moments of conveyed passion, whether about watches, straps, movies, conservation or (even) Hodinkee comment trolls is what makes the show awesome. Another great episode for sure.
Loving the weekly format guys! An absolutely fantastic line up of watches and brands you've covered in today's episode, it's a real honour to have Clemence Watches mentioned alongside them! Thanks and take care, Tom
