Hello and welcome to another episode of the Grey Nato, a loose discussion of travel, adventure, diving, driving, gear, and most certainly watches.

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

James, back again from yet another trip. This was the big one.

0:33.1

Yeah, this is the big one.

0:34.1

It was a long, a very long week in Geneva, a lot of long days to get as much online as possible. Just thrilled to be home. It was a very successful week as far as, as far as some, you know, announcements of new watches and all the content therein goes. But, you know, this is where we really synthesize the stuff that kind of appeals to me and maybe to you and hopefully to

Yeah, we're into the final four. You know, big, big thanks to Jackson for spearheading this.

1:42.2

I think it was a really nice thing to

1:44.6

offer to our audience since we took the past couple of weeks off for Watches and Wonders

1:49.9

and Defender Trophy. And, you know, of course, we're going to talk about all that shortly

here. But hopefully this tied it some people over in it. And just I didn't dip in as often
