After taking a week off for James to attend to some business in Switzerland, the TGN boys are back with an episode all about the latest and greatest from Watches & Wonders and beyond! After a quick trip download from James’ time at the new Tudor facility in Le Locle, Jason and James dig into the recent announcements from IWC, Rolex, Tudor, Tag Heuer, Doxa, Oris, Sinn, and even a few recent developments from Timex and Seiko.
Stay in the mix for a podcast about a legendary governmental cover-up and the latest issue of a great magazine. Also, if you might happen to be in Glasgow, Scotland on April 23rd, Jason will be hanging out at The Finneston Pub from 6:30 pm. If you’re planning to attend, please be sure to send Jason a note to thegreynato@gmail.com.

It’s good to have you guys back with a watch-packed episode. Indeed the smaller sized BB54 is for the vintage and small wrist enthusiast. It baffles me when I read complaints how it’s too small, I mean people with large wrists are already spoiled for choice. And like you James I get really obsessed with size and wearability, the BB58 wears good but for me the lug to lug is a tad mm long for me and we both know that makes a big difference. Looking forward to the 38mm new Seikos--would love to see their GMT with that size, hopefully soon.
Absolutely adore the Cover up podcast. Thank you so much for the recommendation!!
