Hello and welcome to another episode of The Grey NATO, a Hoodinky podcast.

It's a loose discussion of travel, diving, driving Gear, and most certainly watches.

This is episode 127, and it's proudly brought to you by, well, you.

It's the September Q&A.

So thank you so much for everyone who sent in their questions with these sort of

Q&A format shows. We don't do the normal chit chat. We don't give you an update on

what the weather is where we are. We're not doing any of that. but of course I am joined by my illustrious

co-host Jason heaten Jason how you doing good good ready to dive in these are a

good crop of questions this time as usual yeah yeah always and we're going to do our best to get

through as always as many as possible this will be a little bit longer

episode than maybe we normally shoot for because we are trying to work through a

bit of a backlog all of you have been so kind in sending in great questions.

So Jason, what do you say?

We start off with this first one from Dan about getting his SACO5 serviced. Great, let's do it.

Hey guys, it's Dan from London. Huge thank you for all the work you do.

I absolutely love listening to TGM, have done from the beginning. I have a

a question regarding Seco Fives. I have a Saco 5 which I absolutely love but the cost of having these serviced

is significantly more than buying a new watch and in a world which is

becoming a lot more sustainable and trying to produce a lot less waste.

My question is whether or not these watches even have a place in the market anymore when it

doesn't incentivize you to have them fixed if they do go wrong.

Would love to hear your thoughts.
