Talking Watches With Jason Heaton, Denizen Of The Deep

[@BarkandJack]

Possibly the best talking watches yet. That black dial Doxa is amazing.

[@lexidium8278]

This is Hodinkee at it's best . . . The way it used to be before the corporate monster got it's teeth into them . Let's have more like this.

[@WH-hi5ew]

Well said ! I agree 100%.

[@Judah.Rosenthal]

And it shows the “corporate monster” can live side by side with an enthusiast site.

[@YoureTerrific]

Great to see this. I’ll watch, read, or listen to whatever Jason puts out there. Interesting dude, good writer, and seems like a kind human.

[@ZachLeon]

My favorite Talking Watches by a mile. Jason is so humble, and his "collection" is just a testament to the life he's living. Great work, guys.

[@Triniboywonda]

Hope this is the beginning of Talking Watches with the entire HODINKEE staff!

[@PhilipBeresford]

Whilst I've been a little jaded with Hodinkee lately, Jack, Jason, and James with content like this keeps me coming back. Great stuff!

[@artemface]

Came back to this after getting into the Grey Nato pod that Jason hosts with James Stacey. So happy I did, so awesome to see, hear and learn about his collection as well as conservation.

[@giannmilanista]

I love Jason. He seriously is one of my favorite people to listen to. One of the better Talking Watches in a long time.

[@thediton]

Taking Tools with Jason Heaton. We need more like this - thank you for giving this Hodinkee team.

[@andrewjames9963]

Love listening to Jason on the grey nato, so nice to see him on talking watches

[@Judah.Rosenthal]

He doesn’t look like I thought he would.

[@birthdaybatter815]

Any day Hodinkee uploads a Talking Watches is a good day.

[@rfgf72]

Hard to beat Jason and Jack. Throw James in there. Great episode. More of this please. No hype, no steel bracelet,...just passion, function and a nice informative chat.

[@JJchin306]

Saw this title and immediately got WAY too excited for this...

[@headbanginTILLitHurt]

An awesome interview. I’m a Grey Nato devotee and this is an amazing insight into Jason’s past and passion.

[@VinceWatches]

Jack is back....quality is up!!!! this aquastar is amazing

[@willdeanauthor]

Great episode, great watches. I like Jason’s attitude towards watches (and life). A good man. I’m also halfway through Depth Charge and it really is excellent.

[@Awre18]

This guy was super interesting and well spoken one of the best talking watches yet

[@Watch.Hightower]

PLEASE INTERVIEW OTHER STAFF MEMBERS HODINKEEE!! They deserve it!

[@robhaley802]

If only this was an hour long with Jason’s entire collection…

[@Robert.Dickson]

What a great episode. Did anyone else look on eBay for a Citizen Aqualand???😂😂

[@Watchugoton]

Yes 😂🤷🏻‍♂️ and I’ve been Thinking of getting a cwc for couple years and being from wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Uk I’ve gotta get one soon.

[@Idk-dd2gn]

JASON THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEND! Can't wait to watch this

[@willholman6124]

Does anyone else pull out there watches and pretend to do an episode of talking watches with your Casio’s, Timex’s, and Seiko alone in your kitchen?

[@tobiasbloecher3605]

One of the best episodes of Talking Watches - so pure joy in tool watches and the personal stories / history behind. Love it!

[@robertschmidt9584]

Authenticity at its finest and with two wonderful and experienced people in their respective fields.

[@boozedancingtv]

Two cool guys having a laid back and interesting conversation. What's not to love? The only thing that could have improved this is some whisky or other fine spirit to go with those watches. Great stuff!

[@GaryGiffin]

Dive watch fan this in now my favorite "Talking with watches"!

[@mikec3454]

Let's have more of this format ... If doing it virtually allows more interviews, continue to do it. Expertly done!

[@ElPlantPapi]

I’ve been following Jason for many years now on IG and he always talks about his watches and adventures. He always describes them in his captions, but to hear first hand the stories of his watches, was something else! Great interview!

[@jaskey]

I have noted that the talking watches fall into either collectors with watches that are just interesting in their own right or amazing people's watches that are interesting due to places and event that it has been in. This was one talking watches that I felt had interesting watches and they have been in cool places and events. Kind of best of both worlds!

[@gabefore]

Awesome 👏 Jason is the coolest -- love his style, taste in watches, and writing

[@jeffreynolds8167]

I love these videos where not so much spec reviewing goes on but stories to go along with some history of the watch

[@seanpie5481]

Goodness I need to get my dive watch wet. Scurfa Diver One 500m with helium escape valve. And I feel better about having a diver on a bund strap. Fabulous interview. Cheers.

[@wnylibrarian]

Excellent interview. A reminder that we all come to a passion for watches from a multitude of different perspectives of life experience. 👍

[@dcc2176]

Cracking episode, one of my favourite for sure. I have listened to every TGN episode (perhaps on several occasions) and every time Jason talks I find him so charming to listen to. Fascinating, genuine and very passionate. It’s a pleasure to watch this episode. Many congratulations on Depth Charge also. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. Bravo gents.

[@m.e.p.r]

Wow, best episode yet! What a really interesting, thoughtful and immensely likable guy!

[@Ravin76]

Thoroughly enjoyed this interview and stories behind each watch. I will be picking up a copy of this book.

[@garagelife4981]

This is a perfect example of what will your watches say about you in the end? The collection came from a need to tie in to what loves and not from what others think is cool to have.

[@howcanimiss]

“I got to learn how to dive if not I feel like a poser”

[@gagz117]

Immediately dons diver and heads to the swimming pool - Me

[@IansModRite]

I think I’m okay with feeling like a poser, personally

[@grale78]

Sad but true for us who are using divers as cooking timers and parking meters 🤔

[@UGA.D]

Hope this doesn't apply to every kind of watch. Speedy moon watch owners would be screwed.

[@Tone_Jammer]

Nice diverse collection. The tudor is stunning!

[@carter1212ify]

Been waiting years for this

[@Udiver]

A real guy and a real collection! one of the best to date! Great work to both!

[@robertcrenshaw8790]

Saw the title and tripped out with excitement. Yes!!! Well done Hodinkee. Jason is a class act.

[@Talkitout0]

I don’t care who the guest is, if they’re a true enthusiast the content is gold. This is the proof in the pudding!

[@coronetmag]

Very good. Guest and host - both very eloquent. Thank you!

[@josephpatar9827]

Very inspirational people and stories and of course all the watches.... one of the best talking watches ever

[@BeaudiereLabs]

Talking watches is very therapeutic

[@alexchu8434]

Bravo Hodinkee production team! Going above and beyond to make a Zoom call engaging to watch. P.S. Power move by Jack rocking that Bulgari Aluminium!

[@OLofwenius]

Love it! Yet again a far More interesting episode because of interesting choices of watches rather than just expensive ones.

[@IamJoppe]

Love seeing Jason in the spotlight, this is something i’ve really really wanted to see. The Grey Nato but visual!

[@edjack1993]

Lovely collection. Love dive watches that have actually been diving!

[@TheGunDude]

When I got my submariner I had never worn a watch in the water. After getting this watch I went on my honeymoon and did some snorkeling in the Florida keys and wore my sub for that adventure. It was the most beautiful thing I’ve seen in nature. Seeing all the different fish and life under the water and being able to keep track of how long we had been out there and seeing the watch under the water was completely different than it being on wrist for daily life.

[@Rosay__]

Great interviewer…equally great interviewee. Starting into Depth Charge this weekend!

[@dominicrusho]

When is Hodinkee going to interview me about my travel clock collection? C’mon guys

[@robertschmidt9584]

I haven’t woken up with mine yet.

[@RUSHx51]

Just ordered his book. Can’t wait to read it.

[@stevenplayford8223]

That Doxa. Oooft. Also, nice reference to skorzeny style duelling scars. :)

[@Burritosarebetterthantacos]

And this is why you buy lifelong pieces. Whether it’s watches, cameras,cars…one day you will be older and these items will bring back memories. At least that’s why I tell my wife I need a submariner😂 Book ordered.

[@fpoynton1604]

Really spectacular diving experiences w Awesome footage , pure naturalism and adventure. It really doesn't get any better does it. 👍

[@SwissWatchGang]

Jason rocks!

[@adriantorrres6759]

This was excellent! Jason is the man! So much passion!

[@timgreen6952]

Such a legend. Enjoyed that immensely

[@faizalmydin]

Nice. dont see him as a collector rather a person that gets something he likes to be used and remembered + create memories.

[@jolness1]

Diving with vintage dive watches is very cool and super rare (understandably) This is a great talking watches. Agree that Jack should be *the* talking watches guy.

[@choond]

One of the best interviews I've seen in a while. Keep it up! 👍

[@mikerodriguez4608]

Enjoyed this one. Noticed a SPOT device on his chest in the mountain climbing photo, that is a neat tool with its tracking feature.

[@D6EH]

This was outstanding. Jason is a good dude.

[@thomasadventurelife7014]

great collection and stories. Very refreshing from the usual big brands

[@BrittPearceWatches]

Oh that Doxa is absolutely CLASS!

[@AbdallahMassoud1]

Man that sub without the bezel looks so cool. I probably wouldve kept the bezel off.

[@benjamin8899]

It's fitting for Heaton to get his own Talking Watches now that he has hung up the watch review gloves. Thoroughly enjoyable as always.

[@yasha8951]

One of the best talking watches!!

[@orismj]

I've been waiting for this episode! Two very fine gents - great interview.

[@timemoney2775]

Vintage diver watches are great to collect. Great episode.

[@EAMayer]

Great conversation with a thoughtful collector.

[@clavos22]

This was fantastic! Happy to see a Citizen in a collection and I love that his watches are fit for his lifestyle

[@utsovdhowan9611]

Such a lovely interview.

[@mookrage]

I've got a 1983 cwc diver in my collection. Really underrated watch

[@pilotstyle123]

How can one not give a like for such a collection

[@colomboluke]

Truely inspiring! Great collection Jason. The No-date Sub is my unicorn watch.

[@gambee_]

Love Jason and TGN. Great video

[@oyster_3694]

Great interview! Just bought the book!

[@arlopoetiray5534]

Great content again 😍😍😍👍🏻 So much to learn just from watching this

[@Brajin1]

Another great episode!! Had to pull the trigger on that book last night!

[@johndailyva]

This is such a great video - well done !!

[@MrThekikster]

I want to be like Jason Heaton when I grow up

[@kongmw]

Such a great episode of TW. Best one in a while for me.

[@paulsymonds820]

A really interesting and educational video. Very enjoyable thank you.

[@SoCalWatchReviews]

Great episode 👏

[@snapfitness1]

Great collection! And I purchased the book as well, excited to read it.

[@blomps9442]

Really enjoyable to hear from, and about, a watch "collector" who has their watches for tool and true passion reasons.

[@andrew78219]

Best thing on Hodinkee for some time!

[@thegraciefighter102]

Phenomenal episode.

[@JogieGlenMait16]

This is a more familiar Hodinkee kind of video for me. Well done.
