In this inaugural episode we baseline our expectations and goals for the podcast and then dive head first into Grand Seiko, the fastest growing luxury watch brand in the US.  What's attributed to their meteoric rise, what will it take for them to continue to grow, and why do collectors love their watches so much?  Troy, the "grump" reviews a few in his collection, what first attracted him to the brand, and some mistakes he feels Grand Seiko has made along the way.
