What is it about dive watches? Once a tool for an actual sport, the sport of diving, dive watches were born to keep us alive.

But now, nearly 70 years later, are dive watches anything more than reminders of a bygone era, nostalgic totems to an adventurous

pastime that we dream about from the comfort of our desk jobs, or a top-side lifestyle flex for those

with prolific

thelassophobia.

You know what, the water's warm and the visalix good.

So let's dive in and see if we can't sort it out. Oh, Hi it's your host James Stacy and today we're chatting on one of the core niches in the world of watch enthusiasm and that's dive watches and as much as I love desk divers I've got a panel of certified divers to chat about dive watches,

diving, water resistance, and presumably a whole lot more.

So to go over it with me, please welcome my panel

of esteemed coworkers, coworkers is a strong term in this one because in this case Nick is the

Hodinki's SVP of content and he's also very very much my boss so be nice in

the comments I could always use a bonus to buy more dive watches Nick

welcome to the show Nick Barino how you doing good thanks for having me

James to treat to heavy here it'll be fun you know we said that we'd

start casting a wider net with this and and I'm thrilled to have you on.
