The Deep Track, Ep. 16 - Diving for Rolex & Hollywood Stunts with Tom Place
Description
This week we welcome Emmy nominated stunt man Tom Place to the podcast. Tom has been doing stunts and coordinating stunts for the film and television industry for over 20 years, and has worked on films such I Am Legend, The Dark Knight, and many others. In the watch world, we know Tom as Expedition16610, so named for his continued search for a lost Submariner ref 16610 at the bottom of a lake in upstate NY.
Tom is lifelong watch enthusiasts and we discuss his early exposure to the hobby, what kinds of watches he collects today (as well as his own modifications to them), and how the search for that 16610 is going.
