Nick from DC Vintage joins Matt for double duty as guest and cohost. Nick has been on with us before, and it's interesting to reflect on the changes in the vintage Seiko landscape over the past 2 years; the Pogue is still cool, but the latest hotness is definitely the MACV/SOG aesthetic of the Vietnam-era field watches worn by the recon teams of the Studies and Observation Group.

Matt is joined by "Fratello On Air" cohost Balazs Ferenczi to catch up over a quick chat on the new white dial Omega Speedmaster Professional.

This one might've been titled "The Long Hello", as it took a minute to get through the wrist check! Matt is joined by Buzz from "The Whiskey and Watches Podcast" to discuss their respective collecting plans for 2024. We wade into the topic of the Breitling acquisition of UG, and speculate on which archival watch will be launched first. Finally, is everyone sleeping on the best and

Watch Enthusiasts may know about Vortic Watch Co, and their business model of upcycling some amazing American pocket watch movements in modern wristwatch cases (seriously, these movements tend to be absolutely beautiful by modern standards!). Did you know that Vortic is branching out, and venturing into serial production with the new Colorado Watch Company enterprise? We sit down a
