#28: On a Quest for Nivada, and Other Stories
Welcome to Episode 28 of the Time 4A Pint Podcast - This week I caught up with James Vincent, who was the very first guest on the show, to talk about the watches that didn't make it in last time around, and the ones he's bought since.
He may have developed a bit of a thing for Nivada Grenchen... no judgement.

Omega Constellation
Seiko 6139-7070 Chronograph
