Listen "EP43: What Does 'Flight Qualified' Mean Anyway?"
Episode Synopsis
Our final pod of 2024 is here, and we're tying one off with a few of our favorite watches of the year, including a breakdown of Omega's epic new Speedmaster Pilot – a reference illustrating the Bienne maker was really saving the best for last.
All of our picks from this episode are pulled from our Top Ten roundup here on the site, so click through to see the full breakdown. Oh, and don't forget to RSVP for our final event of the year: our Holiday Party Presented by Oris, which happens on Saturday, December 14th at 5:30pm. This event will have refreshments, special gifts from Oris, and even a pop-up gift shop from IRL 'friend of the pod' Wesley, of Standard H. The list is almost full though, so if you haven't already, be sure to RSVP and we'll see you there!
