 The Grey NATO - 131 - Film Club Vol 5 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:26:25

After a six month hiatus, it’s the return of The TGN Film Club! Now in Volume 5, Jason and James reprise their roles as would-be movie critics to bring you ten varied films to add to your winter watch list. From cycling in hell to canoeing into the unknown, learning to be a spy, saving the world, and taking on a neo-nazi played by Patrick Stewart, it’s safe to say this may be the most wild list ever to hit a Film Club. Aside from their movie picks, the TGB boys have a lot more for episode 131, including Jason’s new Land Rover Defender, a new (and great) NATO strap, and updates about both Jason and James’ watch discomfort zones (new watch alert x2!!!). It’s an action packed episode that’s proudly brought to you Seiko – thanks so much for listening. 1:40 Jason’s new Defender 110 https://bit.ly/2UE4aQZ 6:40 anOrdain Model 1 https://bit.ly/2UE4gYR 7:07 Jason’s write up about getting a dress watch https://bit.ly/3kJmhPU 16:14 Submechanophilia https://bit.ly/3kHVrrk 20:39 Bremont MB-II https://bit.ly/2RUOBCV 20:45 Crown and Buckle Matte Supreme NATO https://bit.ly/2IGldz3 21:00 Aquastar Deepstar https://bit.ly/3khqL0G 26:00 Seiko’s New SPB Prospex Divers https://bit.ly/seikoTGN 30:12 Deliverance (1972) https://imdb.to/3ntCdaI 36:28 Prisoners (2013) https://imdb.to/2UDHKiS 38:59 A Sunday In Hell (1977) https://imdb.to/2IQzyZF 43:02 The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014) https://imdb.to/2KcZjnH 45:45 Spy Game (2001) https://imdb.to/36KdkRp 51:12 Edge of Tomorrow (2014) https://imdb.to/3kJnkzk 56:13 The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013) https://imdb.to/35CfvXX 1:01:13 Green Room (2015) https://imdb.to/3kJnyqa 1:05:30 Arctic (2018) https://imdb.to/36Dy8tK 1:08:55 Good Time (2017) https://imdb.to/3kDKqHx 1:16:13 The Wristorian https://bit.ly/3nzNarm 1:19: Sunblaster Grow Light Large https://amzn.to/35HDAgd

 The Grey NATO - 129 - So Many New Watches | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:32:14

This week Jason and James have attempted to fill in some blanks concerning new watch coverage on the show. As the past few episodes have been busy and in-depth, the TGN boys wanted to make sure they highlighted some of the great new watches that have come out since the summer. From Rolex to Breitling, Bremont, and even some microbrands, Jason and James have a long chat about some of their favorite watches from the second half of this year. Once that wraps up, stay in the mix for a Final Notes that brings you deep into the arctic and on the search for Superman (don’t skip this story, Jason and James are obsessed with it).

 The Grey NATO - 128 - Aquastar, Doxa, And Hayabusa Swaps With Rick Marei | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:25:20

This episode features an extra-long interview that has been in the making for a very long time as Jason and James have an in-depth chat with the man behind the re-launch of brands like Doxa and Aquastar – Rick Marei. From the early days of online watch retail to how Rick’s watch collection helped set him on a path of bringing us all some of the best vintage re-issue dive watches ever made. Along with watches, Rick chats with the TGN boys about some of his wild cars, almost losing Clive Cussler’s watch, and how he came to own Jacques Cousteau’s own Doxa. After that, stay in the mix for a set of final notes that sticks closely to the diving and car themes brought up in this episode.

 The Grey NATO - 126 - Watch Discomfort Zones | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:23:54

This episode the boys are digging into their watch discomfort zones – those types of watches that simply haven’t worked for them in the past. For Jason, it’s dress watches. For James, it’s chronographs. From special examples to wild blind spots, the guys know they are in the wrong and chat about how best to frame these genres in a way that might work in the future. From the top, Jason and James are talking Speedmaster bracelets, bronze watches, and the never-ending sagas of vintage Land Rover repairs and project property updates. Sit tight for Final Notes for historical deep dive on NATO straps, the calamity of building a remote cabin, and a brand new album James can’t stop listening to. Finally, a huge thank you to Seiko Watches for supporting this episode via their Built For The Ice Diver US Special Editions.

 The Grey NATO - 125 - How We Fall | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:22:08

For episode 125, the guys are talking about one of the top four seasons - FALL! With a meandering chat about the best bits of fall, how to make the most of the shorter days, gear for the cooler temps, and even some grill envy, this is an episode that will have you oiling your best boots, considering a vest upgrade, and wondering (like James) where to get a tiny funnel suitable for filling a flask. From the top (and at the end) the guys also chat about new overloading platforms (Jeep vs Land Rover), Jason’s recent road trip, new watches, hard-fought legal battles, and a whole lot more. Whether you want to live in your car or simply want to relax by watching someone else living in theirs, this episode will have you covered.

 The Grey NATO - 123 - Diving Deeper With Ocean Explorer Extraordinaire Laurent Ballesta | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:43:29

It’s as easy as one-two-three for this episode of The Grey NATO which features an in-depth (accurate pun) chat between Jason and the wonderfully talented and very adventurous Laurent Ballesta. Widely known for his Blancpain-supported Gombessa projects, Ballesta is a world-class underwater photographer and has created several projects that pushed the very limits of diving, photography, and our collective knowledge of several key aquatic species. From deep dives under Antarctic ice to living at pressure for nearly a month of incredibly long and deep dives, his films are nothing short of TGN required viewing. Before that fascinating chat, the guys are catching up on end-of-summer camping plans, project property updates, Land Rover maintenance, and some excellent outerwear. Keep your fingers away from that pause button as James is sporting a brand new bag and Jason has a special report from a Royal Navy diver. Finally, a huge thank you to G-Shock and their Master Of G watches for supporting this episode of The Grey NATO.

 The Grey NATO - 122 - A Summary Of Summery Dive Watches | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:08:33

In this week’s episode, Jason and James look back on an amazing year for dive watches with a breakdown of several watches that they haven’t had a chance to talk about. From Ocean Stars to SUBs, Mokarrans, Superman, and even Holsteins, it’s hard to remember a better summer for enthusiast dive watches and the TGN boys wanted to take a few minutes to cover some of those that didn’t seem to get their fair share of the limelight. From the top, Jason has been diving and James has been working on a new photo setup with some new gear. Stay in the mix for a bird-themed set of final notes and please remember to send in your voice memos for the upcoming Q and A episode that will be posted in the coming week (subscribe to the feed or you’ll miss it!).

 The Grey NATO - 121 - Proteus, Dive Watches, And Fried Chicken With Fabien Cousteau | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:26:15

Get your red cap and your Aqualung! This is not a drill, people, we've got Fabien Cousteau on the show! In this extra-long chat, Jason reconnects with Fabien to talk all things under-the-sea. From his latest project Proteus to classic undersea habitats and water-powered watches, we even learn about how a birthday request for fried chicken ended up starting this Cousteau's prolific career under the water. Before we dive into the interview (sorry), Jason and James chat about Jason's first time watching Predator, one of James' most Vancouver-themed watches, watch-themed t-shirts, and the mechanical problem that saw Jason's classic land rover taking a trailer to the shop. Stay in the mix for Jason's Cousteau-appropriate final notes and James' ramblings about the latest supercar from the man that made the F1.

 The Grey NATO - 120 - July Q And A | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:34:05

It’s the end of the month, so it must be time for another TGN Q+A episode! A huge thanks to everyone who sent in a voice memo question. We get into everything from straps to cameras, how to care for a NATO, naming your watch after a problematic historical figure, Shadow Divers, "what ifs," and a whole lot more. One quick note to those reading this in advance of listening: While we have loved making weekly episodes since March, the time has come to rebalance the schedule, and we're going to move to a format that will be three episodes per month. Thus, starting with the next new episode on August 13, we’ll be going back to an every-other-week format, but we're going to continue doing a monthly Q+A that will come as a surprise drop sometime towards the end of each month (so be sure to send in your questions and subscribe to the feed!). A huge thanks to all of you who have been enjoying the weekly episodes and sending in your support. We think this new format is a good middle ground that ensures that TGN remains the best show possible.

Jason is back from an amazing camping and diving trip on Lake Superior and James is dropping expensive camera gear and has convinced himself he can fix it. Also, we’ve got a great chat with Analog Shift’s James Lamdin! Want to go deep on interesting vintage watches, how to wear gold, and the new Ford Bronco – you know the drill – just press play. James and James take a beat to unpack Mr. Lamdin’s start in the watch industry, the impact of his Grandfather on his taste in watches, and why the sunroof on his E39 M5 has been giving him some trouble.

 The Grey NATO - 118 - On Paper, On Wrist // The Seiko SPB143 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:57:15

Hot Dive Watch Summer continues with Jason taking delivery of a strapping new ana-digi Seiko as James continues to work through review units by spending some quality time with the latest and greatest from Sinn. If you want to talk about sport watches, this is your episode. For the main topic, the TGN boys revive and old show format called “On Paper, On Wrist” in which they team up to review a watch that one of them hasn’t seen and the other has on wrist. For this installment, Jason and James are offering some in-depth feedback on the new smaller line of Seiko Prospex dive watches via James’ new SPX143 (SBDC101). After that, keep the tape rolling for a dive beneath the pyramids, the black market of bourbon, and a look at how giant ships are built. Just press play and thanks for listening! 3:47 The Long Return Pt.

 The Grey NATO - Ep 117 - Summer EDC With Kyle Snarr | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:34:43

Fresh off of a week of vacation, the TGN boys are back with plenty of dock jumping energy. Jason kicked back cabin style and reports on the trip’s frivolities while James has become a shepherd to a flock of excellent new dive watches. From Tudor in blue to Seiko, Sinn, and Oris, too, this is an episode most summery and we haven’t even hit the main topic. For a wider chat about some great TGN summer EDC options, Jason and James called upon their buddy Kyle Snarr who used to work for Gear Patrol and has recently started his own company Cantonment Co and launched their first product - a nicely made and very well considered kerchief (like a bandanna). Kyle chats about the origins of the new product and Jason and James report on their experiencing of using these handy swaths of colorful fabric for all sorts of uses. After that, the trio deep dive on some of their fav EDC gear, and there is certainly a little something for everyone. Stick around for a varied Final Notes that brings great automotive history lessons, volcanic eruptions, and a new mini-series that is not to be missed.
