I love the Aqua Terra, but it is overpriced. White Dial Speedmaster Professional, I really want to see one in the flesh. The Tudor FXD GMT, that is a great watch. Home run there.
@@richardburns9772Mostly all I hear about from Hamilton owners is problems. The watch forums are filled with horror stories about Hamilton watches. I find Hamilton's vintage pieces way more appealing
Seasons greetings. Speaking of Grand Seiko, would on oldie like the SBGM247 still cut the mustard when compared to more modern releases that have the Spring Drive ? Thanks Matthew
The only brand on this list because it is the only watchmaker in the world who makes a watch that: Perfectly smooth sweeping seconds (not even steps like mechanical watches). Maybe my personal Grail
Really like the Longines GMT, except for the stars on the dial. There may be a historical or legacy reason for them being there I am unaware of but it adds fluff IMO.
I held the Pelagos FXD GMT today. It's such a utilitarian watch and an amazing field watch, but felt and wore very big. If you don't have a big wrist, and won't wear it over overalls, it might look like Captain America's shield. It was also incredibly light in weight, which could make you forget you have it on, so it's good that it's a FXD.
I tried on the Ceramic Blancpain Bathyscaphe fume Blue dial today…. It’s beautiful!!! And the engineering on the ceramic bracelet is insane…. As it folds the links seperate which is amazing to see….. but the ceramic bracelet alone is £7,000
I really love the new Conquest. I just hope they bring out a 43mm variant like with the previous model. I tried on the 41mm, but with a bit over 8" wrists it just looks tiny to me.
i want to buy a watch for my son who turns 28 this month. I has narrowed down the IWC Mark XX IW328202 AND the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra41mm 220.10.41.01.002. Which one would u recommend ?
Nice list! Enjoyed watching! Only one I question is the Conquest. Don’t get me wrong, I really like Longines and what they’ve been doing (own Heritage Chrono and me Legend Diver, sold Spirit which I miss) but the conquest is a bit of a snore,IMO. Would benefit from larger indices akin to the Seamaster.
Love your content, I’m a fairly new subscriber and glad I found you! Your style is fluid and filled with excellent content. I love that you suggest some watches that others may scoff at so you are absolutely original in your content. My one suggestion is to try to work on removing,” to be honest.” I have used that same type of phrase before and got called out on it not even realizing that I was using it….lol. After saying,” to be honest,” he interrupted me and asked if I was going to lie to him at some point. Ok, he is a wanker, but after thinking about it I worked to remove it. If you see this comment and think I am a wanker, it’s all good. I will still be a subscriber, “to be honest….lol…your content is too good to pass up.”
Hahahahaha no don’t be silly, thanks for the feedback mate. I used to have the same issue with saying ‘Ehhh’ before I caught it so I’m glad you pointed it out! 💪🙌
Great video with some nice watches like the Breitling and the Blancpain outstanding quality. The Black Bay is very nice. I love the way Tudor has worked so hard to create some beautiful works and kill the stigma of being the poor man's Rolex even though they still are and always will be. In the end, what you love most is what's most important. Generally because you're the only one who gives a shit about it. What you love is not always loved by others and what others love is not always loved by you. So just enjoy what you like. I've worn Rolex, Blancpain, IWC, Ulysse Nardin, Oris, Cartier diver, for like 10 years now and probably had 10 compliments.in those years. Probably once each for each brand and a few on the Cartier diver. Again. Buy a watch for yourself and not for other because no one else cares about what you got on.
The Longines Spirit Zulu time would be the perfect watch for this price point if the dial and bezel weren't so crowded. There is too much going on in my view.
@ he’s actively destroying my country, so yeah, he hurt my feelings. I take it personally when a person wants to put their own billionaire interests ahead of hard-working Americans. Sure. I’m secure in my masculinity to not have a problem saying that.
I don't understand your fix idea with smaller watches, you should know as a "watch youtuber" that sizes in watches are determined by their complications, design and purpose. Your preconceptions and preferences in watch sizes do not help in your watch reviews. People are not getting a little bit smaller.
I've gotten completely sick of Speedmasters. Nobody shills over their own history like Omega both Heuer and Breitling went to space before Omega so someone should tell Omega to get over it already. That was over 5 decades ago
What are the best watch launches of 2024?!
Grand Seiko SBGX355 for sure! Never gets mentioned anywhere but it’s a killer release: 37mm quartz titanium zaratsu snowflake ❄️
@@ChisholmHunterOfficial Omega FOIS is pure 🔥!
I’ve purchased many watches this year, but my favourite (controversial) buy was the Islander/gentry RM2.
Solid choice. Very industrial and architectural, yet Genta-esque.
I got the white dial one and regret not getting the black dial. The white dial is low key hard to read
I love the Aqua Terra, but it is overpriced.
White Dial Speedmaster Professional, I really want to see one in the flesh.
The Tudor FXD GMT, that is a great watch. Home run there.
@@jeffee1933 just read it in the dark…the lume is insane!!!!
@ I love the AT too and picked up an immaculate 2012 golf edition for £2500. That’s a lot of watch for sensible ching.
Great video as always. My favourite the Breitling
"Hamilton listens to it's fanbase"
Fanbase: Can you use AR on your crystals please?
Hamilton: lol, no.
Hamiltons are not durable at all. They trash IMO.
@@richardburns9772Mostly all I hear about from Hamilton owners is problems. The watch forums are filled with horror stories about Hamilton watches. I find Hamilton's vintage pieces way more appealing
My thoughts as well. My Hamilton is my least readable watch die to the reflections.
First omega in Space was the best release this year ck2998 homage with vitage vibes and a beautiful blue gray dial with the domed crystal
Agree!!!
Disagree, seemed too dainty and feminine when I tried it on.

It looks amazing, will have to wait for grey market for those...$7 bracelet is insane
If you prefer smaller watches why not go for the 34mm Aqua Terra?
I really love the new Conquest. I just hope they bring out a 43mm variant like with the previous model.
I tried on the 41mm, but with a bit over 8" wrists it just looks tiny to me.
Great list. Now I want a Conquest. Triple
i want to buy a watch for my son who turns 28 this month. I has narrowed down the IWC Mark XX IW328202 AND the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra41mm 220.10.41.01.002. Which one would u recommend ?
Seamaster

Bought my first GS a few weeks ago. I am now a bit of a “Fan Boy” now. Lol
Glass Box TH is a beauty. Own the reverse Panda.
For me the TAG Hueur Carrera Silver Panda is the best release of the year. Also, the white dial Speedmaster!
All great choices. Surprised the citizen tsuyosa titanium didn't make this list or the seiko 5 field gmt.
AT black lacquer 41mm has the 8900 and the 38mm has the 8800 movement. The 41mm is the way.
I love the simple design of the Omega Aqua Terra
I like the Moonwatch with white dial, but why don't they just draw 3 little circles like Rolex Panda? That would make the sundials pop a lot more.
Speedmaster 🔥🔥🔥
Omega❤
My favourite watch is the Casio MR-G. Amazing watch, so different from all other traditional watches.
I thought Tudor bb58 gmt was your top pick? You said this in your video with the pink Tudor Chrono .
So good thank you
Beautiful watches . N.1 Breitling
Nice one, thank you 🙏

The date window on the Blancpain turns me off. Shame, as the rest of it is very nice.
Omega for the win.
Black bat 58 gmt was the best Tudor release
Hamilton titanium 36 simple but perfect
The Longines titanium is possibly perfect. The hit the target.
I like the new Longines but they have to lose the ***** star review on the dial, why is that there?
In furious agreement re black lacquer dial Omega Aqua Terra.

Sadly for all its heritage no one is buying Blancpain. Swatch group needs to do more for the brand.
For the AT, I think the smaller sizes are better, the larger ones have to much blank space, and the depth is too much...
The Longines Spirit Zulu time would be the perfect watch for this price point if the dial and bezel weren't so crowded. There is too much going on in my view.
You have great taste.
The Casio costs about $50 to make. All those suckers paying thousands to own it! SMH..
You've obviously never had one in hand.
Let me think. Do only suckers purchase Swiss made watches for tens of thousands?
Most things cost a lot less to make than they are to purchase.
What a great review, and unusually for me, I would be happy to have most of them in my collection. Thanks
This was a fun video. Thanks!
I do like the blaquaterra … (apologies that your “black stallion” moniker had not stuck for me/us…)
Longines ❤
4.3k for a Casio is wild
Tesla and Elon can take a long walk off a short pier. All I have to say.
He hurt your little feelings?
@ he’s actively destroying my country, so yeah, he hurt my feelings. I take it personally when a person wants to put their own billionaire interests ahead of hard-working Americans. Sure. I’m secure in my masculinity to not have a problem saying that.

They don’t claim to be the first watch in space though (Sturmanskie). They were however the first watch on the moon.
Good video until I saw that Hamilton dial again. Then I fell asleep thanks to the sheer boredom it exudes. Happens every time
The most garbage Pelagos.
Where are you getting your false information that people are getting smaller?😂😂😂
Aquaterra - still with that in built problem. Lume fail.
NO IT DOES NOT WORK!! ...you weren't listening then, and you're not now.
All thrse rehash videos. Meh
