The Grey NATO – 239 – The Watches You Asked Us To Talk About
This week the boys are back to chat about several watch brands and models that the TGN Slack Crew requested as topics. Since Jason and James can’t possibly cover everything that’s of interest, we asked the Crew what watches have been missing from the show and dedicated an episode to filling in some of the blanks. From Christopher Ward to Tag Heuer, new Rolex, Ressence, Longines, and Damasko, it was a blast to discover some new watches, and we thank the Crew for helping to shape this episode.
Christopherward
The Twelve
Christopher Ward doesn't do luxury. Tool watches, yes. Innovative complications, of course. Value for money, most certainly. But luxury - with its show-off implications and forced scarcity - we've largely shied away from. If we were to approach this world at all, it would be on our own terms. Well, we did.

(+41) 22 557 41 41 9am - 6pm Tuesday to Friday and 2pm - 6pm on Saturday The Antarctique combines sophisticated style and look with a genuine in-house power movement bound to stake a major claim in the popular sport-chic segment.
A-13a
A-13A Quartz - a-13a
The A-13A Pilot Watch is a tool, it serves the sole purpose of telling the time in the most accurate, reliable, legible way possible. Both as a timepiece and as a chronograph. It is designed to be robust and to keep out dust and water; it's made to last.
A-13a
A-13A Automatic (Flyback) - a-13a
Because the A-13A watches are aimed primarily at the aviation community, I thought it made perfect sense for us to entrust the field tests to actual pilots.

Tag Heuer Aquaracer WAN2110 Review - WatchReport.com
In our continued effort to find thin and versatile sport watches we were quite happy to see that the recently refreshed Tag Heuer Aquaracer line up still had a 300m model that retained the classic good looks and modest sizing seen on Tag Heuer's of the past.

Ressence Watches
Ressence Type 3 | Design Swiss Made Watches
The TYPE 3 engages with physics like no watch before. The refraction of light as it moves from one substance to another can distort perception. The TYPE 3 cancels this effect through its upper half being flooded with 3.75 ml of oil.
Ressence Watches
Ressence Type 5 | Diving Watches
LIGHTNESS AND PERFORMANCE Rather than protecting the TYPE 5 against the pressure of water depth by using a heavy over-sized case and thick glasses, we used our oil technology. Since the laws of hydraulics state that a liquid cannot be compressed, the oil will compensate for underwater pressure.
