The Grey NATO - 93 - A Chat With Andy Mann

To most watch enthusiasts, the name, Andy Mann, might be familiar from his association with Zodiac watches, in particular, the recent Super Sea Wolf 68 Saturation collaboration that he helped design. But his work goes well beyond sketching out dive watch dial designs. He’s a National Geographic photographer, a senior fellow at SeaLegacy, and an award-winning filmmaker. He’s also an avid rock climber who makes his home in decidedly landlocked Boulder, Colorado. In this episode, Jason talks to Andy about how he got started in his enviable career, his travel and packing hacks, and what is on top of his adventure bucket list (it’s a good one).

This interview was recorded remotely and includes some strange audio qualities as a result of the equipment available onsite. Our apologies for the less than incredible audio quality and we thank you for your patience as we work out a solid solution for recording these remote interviews in dynamic environments. Thanks to Zodiac Watches for facilitating this interview and to Andy Mann for taking the time to chat with The Grey NATO. Enjoy the show.
