Hello and welcome to another episode of The Grey Nato, a loose discussion of travel, adventure,

diving, driving, gear, and most certainly watches. This is episode 347, and it's proudly brought to you

by the always-growing TGN supporter crew. We thank you all so much for your continued support,

and if you'd like to support the show, please visit thegraynado.com for more

details. My name is Jason Heaton and I'm joined as ever by my friend and co-host, James Stacey.

James, we're back to being remote from each other here after our exciting weekend in Toronto.

Yeah, I feel like I've spent the last week just kind of recovering from it, kind of laying low and sitting quietly at night and reading books. It was, you know, it was a pretty social weekend. A couple of introverts. Yeah, right. Yeah, exactly. I can't tell you how many people I talked to at the marathon evening event that were like, we'd go over as far away, you know, into a corner on that sofa and sit

and we'd talk and be like, they're like, how are you doing? You know, I know you're an introvert. Is this hard for you? It's hard for me. You know, and I'm like, well, it's not hard, but it's, you know, I'll have to go into the cave for a few days when I get back home. But it's also worth it to to meet everybody and I'm still kind of flying high from some of the interactions.

Yeah, no, it was a great time and, you know, it plays out into watches. also worth it to meet everybody and I'm still kind of flying high from some of the interactions.

Yeah, no, it was a great time and, and, you know, it plays out into watches and future content and even I was just editing a Q&A, which ideally would go up before this episode, if you're not

already confused enough about our Q&A schedule, where we were actually talking about some stuff that,

you know, conversations had uh during the

toronto time piece show so yeah that was uh that was great and uh and at the same point you know now

i would think like for me that's now fall has started as far as the the season of work and you know

there's a lot going on in the watch industry in the next couple uh next couple of months as we

push on towards kind of gift giving season yeah and that sort thing. So I think it'll be pretty busy, but it's nice to have had that show and have it be a success. And the response to the episode, you know, thanks largely to our many guests, has been great. So a huge thank you to everybody who was on the previous episode, the potluck episode from live from the show.

Yeah.

And on top of that, we have some other new news stuff that people waited a long time and we've hinted at for a while. Why don't you bring people up to speed on the new fall merch? Finally, you know, we've been talking about this for months. And I think it was worth the wait. I think we needed to kind of take our time with this one because it's a big drop.

We have a lot of products.

There's a lot of really cool stuff,

things we haven't done before in terms of different styles of hats and lots of T-shirts. And

I hesitate to even announce what the kind of the fun surprise, you know, what we're saying
