As a spiritual follow-up to TGN 195 – which was all about the big watches we love – this episode is all about our favorite smaller watches. Jason and James set a physical limit of 38mm and put together a list of the smaller watches that stick out in their memory. From Rolex to Timex, Breitling, and Hamilton, small watches are not just for those of us with smaller wrists.
From the get-go, Jason has designed a new way to drive his boat around town, and be sure to stay in the mix for a Final Notes that will have you considering an Ineos Grenadier allocation while you roam a foreign countryside with a bargain on roaming data.

Hi guys,
When talking about Omega you totally missed the Aqua Terra in 38mm.
The new pieces are great size and come in fantastic colours
One brand I'm surprised you guys missed knowing TGN's preferences is Marathon. The General Purpose field watches are tiny (34mm I think) and there are quartz and automatic versions of the GSAR/TSAR diver with 36mm cases. They're tall and blocky, but about as capable as it gets for a small diameter tool watch.
