After a week off, the TGN boys are back to chat about some brand-new watches from Omega, Tudor, and Monta. A lot has been released since the last episode, including a full line of “summer blue” Omegas, a pair of hot new FXD models in carbon composite made as a nod to the Red Bull yacht racing team, and a third generation of Monta’s well-loved Oceanking diver.

From the start, Jason and James are back from some recent travel and couldn’t be more excited to head to Chicago for WindUp! Stay in the mix for a Final Notes, which will have you exploring a very deep wreck and streaming a great new military thriller. Finally, just a heads up that we will be taking a summer break for the weeks of August 10 and 17.

Excited to see what Citizen has in store with the 9075. I've been hoping for a 24 hour bezel version of the Promaster Challenge Diver since the movement was announced. Also excited to see the Lorier Hydra and Hyperion coming up soon with the 9075 as well.

It’s funny, I just heard a podcast that mentioned the USS Samuel B. Roberts (DE-413). Adm. James Stavrids in his book To Risk It All: Nine Conflicts and the Crucible of Decision talks about the captain of Sammy and his brave decisions on that battle.
