After nearly 80 episodes, it’s the next installment of Collection Inspection as Jason and James each pick a watch from their collection and dive deeply into what they like about it, what they don’t like, how it fits into their lifestyle, and why they might have picked this specific reference over something else. It’s always a blast to do a Collection Inspection and Volume 10 features a funky regatta racing Omega from Jason and an English dive-GMT from James.
From the get-go, Jason is getting prepped for a weekend both on and under the ice of a local lake, and James is all set for a trip to Geneva to get his hands on some brand-new watches from a major brand. Stay in the mix for some insight on the OODA loop and a great new album from a friend of the show.

“Clutter in its highest and most organized form is called collecting.” - Ada Louise Huxtable
The OODA loop remains one (if not the best) methods for understanding the outside world. There are tons of books/articles on Col. Boyd. Well worth digging in!
Anyone know the strap on James's S302 pictured?
