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).

Resembling a certain movie poster, this image was the result of practice, patience & a hell of a lot of luck. Situated in the Pacific, 240km off Mexicos Baja California peninsula, Guadalupe is one of the worlds premier locations for observing great white sharks. Approx 200 people reside on the island, most of them abalone and lobster fisherman. @sonyalpha #a9 #bealpha @sealegacy #sharks #uwphotography A post shared by Andy Mann (@andy_mann) on Oct 29, 2019 at 7:42pm PDT Show Notes: 1:00 Andy Mann5:20 Cory Richards TGN Chat7:50 Paul Nicklen12:28 Red Cameras12:33 Nauticam Housings20:50 Andys Line With Mountainsmith Bags23:52 Sixgill Shark Tagging Project With Ocean X28:15SeaLegacy33:34 Zodiac Watches40:32 The Zodiac Super Sea Wolf 68 Saturation x Andy Mann Limited Edition46:05Sardine Run South Africa
