The Deep Track, Ep. 60 - Richard Mille in Paris, Racing Sims, & More with James Stacey
Send us a textThis week I'm thrilled to welcome James Stacey back to the podcast. James and I have just returned from a trip to Paris with Richard Mille and Ferrari to get a first hand look at the new 43-01 Tourbillon Split-Seconds Chronograph. In this episode, we react to the watch, and chat about some of the other highlights of the trip, including time in a racing simulator set up (and how we might go about replicating such a set up in our own homes). Additionally, we look ahead to Watches & Wonders and ponder what's in store for us, including which Rolex watch would make the most sense in RLX titanium.

The Deep Track, Ep. 58 - A New Seiko Marinemaster, King Seiko Vanac, & Collection Inspection
Send us a textThis week we take a look at new divers from Seiko celebrating 60 years since the 62MAS, which includes a new monobloc Marinemaster. Seiko also introduced a new King Seiko Vanac collection, recalling a short lived name from the early '70s. Additionally, I talk about pairing down my collection recently, and how I'm looking to bring my focus to the watches I buy moving ahead, and remove redundancies in the process. There's also a commentary about bonding with a few watches rather than hoarding many. Finally, there's an update on my small form factor PC build, and what is motivating the process.

Send us a textThis is a solo episode featuring my thoughts on some of the new releases from Leica, Sinn, Audemars Piguet, and more. I also take a look back at my time with the magnificent A Lange & Sohne Lange 1 ref. 101.027 and ponder its meaning in the context of my own collection. Finally, I've got a new PC build project in the works, right in the midst of a new generation of GPUs being introduced.
