This week, Jason and James sit down to chat about a growing list of watches that have been on their minds over the past couple of months. From Bremont’s latest releases and new dive watches from Seiko, to Nomos, ZRC, and the possibility – hope, really – that we are on the edge of a golden era for GMTs, this main topic features some exciting new watches, movements, and even a small rant from James…
If we missed any of your favorite new watches, be sure to let us know in the comments.
From the start, Jason has a recap of his final days and amazing dives in Bonaire, and James is prepping for another extended run of travel through Europe and back to the US west coast. Stay in the mix for a Final Notes which promises to have you efficiently charging all your gear while digging into the history of music from James Bond.

Thank you for the GMT rant James! It has bugged me as well when I see “a true GMT”! 👍🏼 No one GMT is more true of a GMT than the other.
The Sound of 007 was great fun! The music is beyond iconic and that guitar intro to the 007 theme always puts a smile on my face.
