The Grey NATO – 236 – The High/Low Watch Collection Challenge

For this episode, which will be published while Jason and Gishani are touring around Scotland, the TGN boys came up with a fun new challenge. The “High/Low Challenge” offers $10,000 hypothetical dollars for a two-watch collection with the highest possible delta in price between the two watches. So, if you spend $9900 on one watch, you need to find a second watch for $100. While we aren’t going to spoil the picks here, Jason came within $1 of the budget and James spent 98% of the cash on his “high” pick. It was a fun thought exercise and we’re excited to see what you all would spend the cash on, so let us know w in the comments on Substack or in the TGN Slack.

From the top of the show we have an incredible discount on Giant Mouse’s amazing knives (hit the notes below for the details, only for this coming weekend) and then a Final Notes that will have you laughing along with a great new stand-up special while also considering the possibility of murders during the Apollo missions.
