The Deep Track

Send us a textThis week, watch editor and producer Devin Pennypacker joins the podcast to chat about new releases from Omega, VPC, and ponder what Tudor might do for their 100th anniversary. With these new releases, there are some deeper issues brought to bear that we get into in this episode, from releasing an LE colorway into regular production, to tackling a tricky sophomore release. We even confront the current state of dive watches through the lens of the new Type 39VM, and narrowly avoid an existential crisis. Show Notes:The Deep TrackDevin Pennypacker on InstagramJDM Casio Timber CruiserCertina DS SuperSpeedmaster 3861Book A Room On the MoonSpeedmaster Black & White VPC Type39VMStudio Underd0g Field Watch 02 SeriesClemence WatchesPaulin MaraBell & Ross MultimeterTudor Turns 100Tudor North FlagTudor P01Tudor RangerTAG Heuer x New BalanceSupport the show

Send us a textThis week, sneaker industry veteran Nick Engvall returns to the podcast to discuss the state of the enthusiast community. The sneaker world has seen plenty of change in recent years, and there's plenty of similarities to the world of watches, including a few lessons to be learned. In this episode, we chat about the state of enthusiasm across both watches and sneakers, and how might grow beyond the hype driven culture that once dominated. Additionally, there's some car talk thrown in for good measure, so fair warning. Show notes:Nick Engvall on InstagramThe Sneaker NewsletterSneaker History on InstagramSneaker HistoryBest Sneakers of 2025Keith HufnagelKickingItMove InsolesEverrati Porsche 964Honda Heritage WorksSupport the show
