Hidden Gem Watches

April 24, 2022

Can you name a watch that just never really got its fair share of the limelight? Or has faded from attention but likely deserves another look? I asked Jack, Logan, and Danny the same questions to help form this episode all about "hidden gem watches". And boy, did they deliver.? From deep cut Langes and oddball sporty JLCs to super-accurate GMTs and watches born in the shadow of more famous models, we each brought a list of three watches that we think are worth some renewed attention. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to drop by the comments if you have a suggestion of any other hidden gems that we should all know about.?
