Hello and welcome to another episode of the Gray NATO, a hoodinkie podcast. It's a loose discussion of travel, diving, driving gear and most certainly

watches. This is episode 89 and it's brought to you by Gear Patrol in their upcoming

stock to product culture conference. You can stay tuned for more on that or you can visit

stock 2019.

For all the details.

Hey Jason, how's it going?

Great. Yeah, boy, it's been a while since we talked.

I did my Nim's interview last time and I think before that,

you know, we both had a lot of travel and so yeah good

to be back yeah I'm I'm in a recording in Toronto HQ in Toronto and this is a just

just recently closed the loop on what would have been you know 14 or so days on the road.

Yeah lots of one-way flights I remember you were.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, so yeah was San Francisco where we did this event with Likka and a meetup and Stephen

Pulverint, a managing editor at Hodincki and I, did this kind of fun day-long

kind of class on watch photography the Hodinkey style of watch

photography so that's kind of like fast run-it-gun shoot anywhere but get what you

really need sort of stuff so we had we had a handful of guys come out to that it was it was great we had a really good time was that was that filmed or anything I'd love to see it it was not I mean it was the first time we've ever done it and the people who very kindly came along and

participated, paid a considerable amount of money to be part of the course.

So it wasn't something that we put online. I think it could it could conceivably become something online but a lot of it was hands on. We spent about half the day

Just just working through sample problems they could put a watch down and'd kind of show them how we would set it up and how to operate the various lighting, whether it was constant lighting or daytime lighting or even a flash, and we'd all sorts of awesome like a gear there so a lot of it kind of

of translates more to in the scene sort of thing yeah but certainly there's there's

some of that would translate okay as far as a video presentation and maybe that's the future of something like that.
