    As you might know from his published work at HODINKEE, Gear Patrol, and elsewhere, and from The Grey Nato podcast (which he co-hosts with HODINKEE's James Stacey) Jason's take on watches is a bit different. Most of us who own dive watches will probably do nothing riskier with them than go snorkeling, but for Jason, a dive watch is a tool of the trade. A samurai sword is a beautiful object but to this day, the acid test for one made by a master artisan is still tameshigiri, or test-cutting. The first question is not, "is it beautiful?" but rather, "does it work?" and that's the question every watch Jason's dived with has to answer.

    Possibly the best talking watches yet. That black dial Doxa is amazing.

    This is Hodinkee at it's best . . . The way it used to be before the corporate monster got it's teeth into them . Let's have more like this.

    My favorite Talking Watches by a mile. Jason is so humble, and his "collection" is just a testament to the life he's living. Great work, guys.

    The only thing that could have improved this is some whisky or other fine spirit to go with those watches. Great stuff!

  • @jaskey
    @jaskey 3 роки тому +1

    I have noted that the talking watches fall into either collectors with watches that are just interesting in their own right or amazing people's watches that are interesting due to places and event that it has been in. This was one talking watches that I felt had interesting watches and they have been in cool places and events. Kind of best of both worlds!

    I’ve been following Jason for many years now on IG and he always talks about his watches and adventures. He always describes them in his captions, but to hear first hand the stories of his watches, was something else! Great interview!

    Cracking episode, one of my favourite for sure. I have listened to every TGN episode (perhaps on several occasions) and every time Jason talks I find him so charming to listen to. Fascinating, genuine and very passionate. It’s a pleasure to watch this episode. Many congratulations on Depth Charge also. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. Bravo gents.

    When I got my submariner I had never worn a watch in the water. After getting this watch I went on my honeymoon and did some snorkeling in the Florida keys and wore my sub for that adventure. It was the most beautiful thing I’ve seen in nature. Seeing all the different fish and life under the water and being able to keep track of how long we had been out there and seeing the watch under the water was completely different than it being on wrist for daily life.
