Not sure what's better, your collection or the story behind your Wittnauer. Awesome.
Thank you so much, Reed. I hope people stick around to hear that one. I think it really demonstrates the power watches can have in telling a story.
Teddy Baldassarre great story behind the Wittnauer, not gonna lie, I cried a little inside... Great Video Teddy
@@TeddyBaldassarre We call my son Theodore despite his first name being William. He is named after his grandfather, my dad, who in turn was named after HIS grandfather. So my Teddy (now 22) is the 3rd... I have my grandfather's pocket watch from the 1920s which I have serviced and plan on giving to my Teddy when I pass. I'll also pass on my 1910 IWC and the rest of my watches. Love your story about the Wittnauer. Watches and clocks are the best for keeping family heritage alive. I really enjoy your videos, keep them coming.
You all probably dont care at all but does anybody know a way to get back into an instagram account??
I was stupid forgot my login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me!
@Lian Kyson instablaster =)
Last year I posted a video of my watch collection and it honestly changed my life. Now after looking at my watch box, I think it is time for a collection video update. There have been so many changes since last year and I am excited to hear what you all think. Thanks again to all of you for your continued support. Being able to speak about my passion for watches is a dream come true for me! What watch was your favorite?
Teddy Baldassarre that Tudor sub,🤤
Have to say, that NOMOS is stunning and by far my favourite watch of your collection as it is one of my favourite watches of all time. Can't wait to get one in my collection.
Teddy Baldassarre Hi, what's the lug to lug height on the Tudor Submariner?
Everything has a leather strap. Why don't you like bracelets?
I have the same size wrist as you. I was surprised when you announced that you sold most of your dive watches in favor of smaller, slimmer dress watches. I have been struggling with the same issue. I have found most dive watches to be too large to wear or if the case size is smaller (The Seiko SKX 0013 for example), the thickness of the watch is the same as the larger version, so the proportions are off. The 1990's Tudor Submariner is one of the few examples (I see that you own one) of a 36mm diver with nice proportions. I am a little dismayed about the ever rising price of the Tudor. (I hope you found a good deal on yours) So, in conclusion, I am sticking to dress watches for the foreseeable future. Thank you for sharing your watch journey with newer enthusiasts like me. Your latest conclusions have been very confirming, and inspiring to me. Thank you for your channel.
As an Italian, I really do understand the “name” thing to be carried on. It’s such a good feeling to have something that belonged to someone in your family, especially one or two generations before you, and then passed on to you. Cherish that watch and wear it proudly. It’s part of your family heritage. God bless.
Carlo, I could not agree more! Learning of that story sealed the fate of my love for watches. God bless you as well, my friend!
Absolutely great collection. Most important of all, you have genuine passion and insight as to WHY you have the pieces that you have. Anyone can tell that you are not showing off but are genuinely immersed in the love of horology. Each piece has a story, an emotional value and a reason to be in your collection. A lot of what we do has a level of subjectivity. That's where insight for each piece justifies its place in a collection. You have all that. You are a true watch enthusiast my friend. Congrats on your collection, Teddy. And thank you for sharing your love for horology.
Amen! Excellent comment.
Andres, this means a lot man. Story, style and value. That’s what I look for in my pieces. Having others show interest in my passion for watches brings me great joy. I am happy that this managed to show in the video. Much respect and appreciate brother!
Next video idea:
Talking watches with teddy’s girlfriend
Hahaha I like the idea man!
If the comment gets some love I will do it.
Teddy Baldassarre hi it’s little Pirc
Steven Pirc what’s up Steven?! Awesome seeing you here.
Thrifts and Tricks this video already featured all of Teddy's girlfriend's watches. 😝
Love the editing on this one Teddy. And a great collection, love the Junghans Chronograph. I recently added my first Rolex (Air King from '73) to my collection and since I bought it two months ago, I hardly haven't worn any of my other watches :) Keep up the great work!
You really got me into watches Teddy , its really fun to see such an old video of a really early phase in your journey .
thank you !
Damn, I wasn't expecting feels watching this.
Haha I am glad you did though man. I was catching the feels while shooting this one 😂
Bruh I though the same thing.... lmao
Recently came across your channel and have been enjoying the videos. I can appreciate your current collection and like your mix of vintage dress watches and contemporary, clean/minimalist dial examples. I suspect we will see an even greater emphasis on classic, vintage watches in your collection down the road. Love the Wittnauer and its personal connection to your family. I just picked up a birth year watch (59 Bulova Sea King) and feel like it adds an interesting element to my small collection. Keep up the good work!
I'm not one to binge too many videos, but yours are an exception. I've been slowly catching up on a lot of your videos and I'm never disappointed. The way you talk about you grandfather's watch is why I started liking them. Although I never got to have one handed down, I first got into bulova watches as thays what my great grandpa wore in his day and you bring the same feelings out when you tell your story. I am very glad to have some great info from you. 🙏🤝👏
Great collection! Love the vintage watches - especially the IWC!
I have a fairly substantial collection of modern (1995 - present) watches, but my vintage game is seriously lacking. Really my only vintages are an old Zodiac astrograph, a Movado/Zenith Defy and the 14K Lord Elgin my dad got when he retired from Chevrolet in Toledo in 1950.
Wonderful collection, Teddy! Congratulations, and thank you for the last part of the video, really moving and inspiring.
What a cool, very authentic collection. The backstory behind the wiitenauer was epic. It’s really neat to hear the commentary around each piece. Thanks for these videos Teddy!
Awesome video, Teddy! It's been inspiring to watch you grow and broaden your video styles and so it would be really interesting to see an updated collection video. Keep up the great videos!
After watching countless of your videos, I looked back at your previous vids and found this gem. Crazy nice collection and what a touching story. So great that you’re honoring the family name in fine fashion. Thanks for all the hard work and thanks for inspiring me to dust off my love of watches and start my own collection, which…..started with a Nomos. 👍🏼😊
One of the best watch collection videos I have ever watched. I really enjoy how you present each watch, with a little explanation behind why you bought it and your thoughts on it, also not no mention that awesome camera work. And to top it off with that incredible Wittnauer story, wow. Keep up the good work man.
I was hoping to produce one of the better watch collection videos out there with this. I think beyond the camera work, it’s the story behind the pieces that makes it. Thanks for watching brother!
Awesome video Teddy! Loved seeing your amazing collection but even more so the heartwarming story of your Great Grandfather and the passing down of the Wittnauer Heirloom.
All you videos are educational and fun. I just turned 60 years old. The kids are on their own and I’m finally being able to follow a passion and actually purchase some fine timepieces now, instead of simply window shopping my entire life. I’m using your videos as education for my selections and I greatly thank you for sharing your knowledge and guidance. 😊
Blessings and warm regards,
Christopher Pierce
Teddy, this is a nice video :) The last section was beautiful. By the way, one thing that caught my attention was your strap collection. Could you post a video one day on the review of the watch straps in your collection please?
You have impeccable taste, dude. The diversity in this collection is refreshing and tasteful. Each watch serves a clear purpose, and I get the feeling you do in fact wear each piece regularly (except the Wittnauer, of course) since they are all very functional. I'm sure this collection has changed a bit since Summer 2018 but hopefully not too much. Really fabulous job curating these pieces. All the best in 2020 and beyond.
Amazing collection Teddy! I loved the story about the Wittnauer!!
Is there a possibility of getting a collection 2021 video? Great content as always Teddy!
Really touched by the story of the watch passed down the generations to you Teddy. Great videos and content all round.
The story of your late grandfather is one of the reasons why I love the stories behind the pieces of history we have. To cherish, to hold, to pass on, it's stories like that which hold so much more value than anything else. Thanks, @Teddy Baldassarre for sharing with us that little bit of history.
Loving the vibe of this video! Keep it up bro! :) Lovely watches
I just wanted to say thank you for showing me the world of watches, I came from a guy with a bad fashion watch(almost unreadable), now a have Tudor GMT and a Omega Constellation pie-pan(got that one from you). You are a great creator with a positive attitude and you’re getting more people into watches, which is great! Good luck and cheers on the awesome collection
Regards from Sweden :)
Pulling my heart strings with the story of your grandfathers watch! Stunning collection - I have loved watching it grow. xo!!
Thanks Courtney :))
Ngawww guys.
Very warm and personal. Thank you.
I love how your style has develloped in the last year, love your watch collection Teddy. Even though your collection is pretty solid I think a guilloche dial watch would compliment it nicely ;) Keep up the good work.
As always, love your channel! And great, beautiful story about your family's Wittnauer!
Thanks for sharing your passion.
I found your channel with your recent AC3 interview ! I’m loving your content nice vid
Wow, great collection. I'm new to the channel and definitely love the same style of dress watches (especially the IWC). I do notice the lack of any bracelets or rubber though. Nothing wrong with that but leather and water don't always get along too well. Love the Omega Constellation. In 1982 my father and I were walking across a street and he looked down and found an Omega Constellation in the middle of the street that had been run over a few times. He had it repaired and gave it to my grandfather for Christmas one year. Think my Dad still has it. He was also nice enough to give me his Datejust that IBM had given him for giving them 25 years of his life. It came to me upon my college graduation. I've added to it since with a Seamaster America's Cup, Baume & Mercier Hampton, Tag Heuer Monoco, a Raymond Weil my wife gave me about 18 years ago that I just re-found and a Victorinox Chrono that I use with multiple straps. And of course, my G-Shock for camping or pressure washing the driveway. I'd trade all of them (except the Rolex and Omega) for any one of a few of yours. Keep collecting now. It becomes harder as life gets more complicated..
Bro. Teddy, very good collection-I recall that first “collection” video from last year...you’ve grown your channel tremendously-congrats! Your Junghans w/ that vintage strap is my favorite; but I miss that outstanding Zenith you had...wish I had collected vintage pieces before the prices skyrocketed. Greatest part of the video, for me, is the end regarding the watch passed through your lineage-absolutely priceless! God’s speed.
What a solid collection. Keep up the great work! I always appreciate your videos
Absolutely loved the collection! Loved the story about your great grandfather and family!! Thanks for sharing!
Can't wait for a 2019 collection!!
I know it's late but really enjoyed this episode. I covet a lot of the watches in this collection. Love your style and on- camera demeanor. And thanks for sharing the story about your great grandfather's watch. Cheers.
Great Video as always Teddy! Amazing watch collection and I'm proud to have three watches in common with you.
Thanks for sharing your latest collection pieces Teddy. I especially liked the story that goes with the last piece originally owned by your great grandfather. Now that’s a piece you’ll always cherish and ensure is handed down to the next generation in your family.
Love the video, as I was finding inspiration for my own collection, looking at your entire collection there seems to be a consistent language. Maybe an update video in 2020?
Great mix of old and new watches. A lot of great designs on vintage and a big fan of Nomos. I have a small wrist myself and love seeing you and others on UA-cam post their collections.
Thank you, Ron. Well all my watches are 40 mm and under so... haha
Hey Teddy, love your videos. Keen to see an updated watch collection video?
Love it Teddy 👍. I've been looking at some vintage Omegas and love the ones you showed here.
Timeless.
Thank you Teddy
Love your passion for watches and thanks for sharing your family story.
Lovely collection, kudos ! Thanks for sharing 👍👍
Very exquisite and tastefully selected collection! Well done! I especially liked your first Nomos.
Excellent video and collection - thanks
I still love your Constellation! It just looks so unique to me
I love that piece. Constellations are awesome. Thanks for watching, JP.
Cool video! Loved your interview with the Pontiff, by the way! Keep up the great work!
Appreciate it brother! Thanks for checking out this video and the interview with the govnah! Lol
A fine collection. Thank you for sharing.
Wow. That story about your great grandfather. Beautiful (clearly still bingewatching 😂)
Great thoughtful collection, loved the Omegas and the wittenauer.
Great videos in general, very informative. Really liked the great grandfather story.
I've been watching your videos but this one made me subscribe. ❤️
Just came across your channel. Nice collection! Great story at the end! It’s all about the story.
Wow that IWC is a real winner! Never seen that before. Definitely going to hunt around for some IWC vintage dress watches now.
It is a stunner.. carful with the redials on those. Great value though!
Timber Wolf's Den Hey, it may be a little late, but I highly recommend looking at an IWC Portofino Reference 3731. It’s a gorgeous vintage chronograph that hardly anyone (except IWC enthusiasts) knows about. The fact that many don’t know about them also means you can get them for a great price.
I love your collection. Great to see a young man from the digital era appreciating the analog aesthetic. Your grandfather is proud I’m sure.
Complimenti signore Baldassarre! You have an awesome collection, great balance between vintage and modern. Love the Rolex DJ, currently looking for one myself and I have to add, you made a mistake selling the grey dial version! You also have nice straps to compliment your watches. Not looked through all your videos, but have you done one on straps and where you get them? Love what you do, keep it up. Ciao
P.S. Love the story of how you came to inherit your great grandfathers watch, beautiful.
I love the last watch you shared. Such an amazing story
Your collection is pure class and I’m sure it is the envy of a lot of your subscribers (myself included). Like many people who have just gotten into watches, I was really focused on just divers. But you’ve really opened my eyes to dress watches and the German minimalist designs. I don’t think I can afford a Nomos yet, but the Max Bill and some of the Junkers have really caught my attention. Thanks for another great video! Always entertaining and informative.
Thank you so much, Steve. I am glad I could help in raising your appreciation for dress pieces. In my opinion (unpopular one) they are the best.
We love a great vintage story! Quite the piece and story!
Best, IC
Hey Teddy, I found your channel recently and have been amazed by how quickly it's become the first thing I click on when I open up UA-cam. All your videos are so interesting and informative so keep up the good work! I was wondering what the blue strap is on your Tudor featured in this video. Love the color and material.
Hey Teddy, love this video so much that I came back to it just to ask where you got that strap for the Nomos Ahoi. I have the same piece and can't find a good brown strap that pairs with its modern aesthetic. I currently use the Nomos grey suede with deployant clasp and the Nomos blue two-piece nylon strap. Thanks!
great video. really enjoyed the story - thanks for posting.
Awesome stories Teddy.
I love your watch strap selection with each watch! And the way you stick in the overlapped nato straps. I always struggle with long straps due to my small wrist...
Awesome listening to the story of your grandfather's watch. I love your collections.
Literally just discovered your page an hour ago with your 2017 collection, then I refresh and you've just uploaded a 2018 collection lol. Crazy.
Hahaha that is wild. Well welcome to the channel!
Thanks Teddy for keeping it real and providing great content as usual.
Thank you, Eric. Not enough real in the watch world! I hope to help change that.

Love you collection! Your grandfather's watch is amazing...I love the texture on the dial & the story behind it makes it priceless.. I enjoyed the video!
Thank you so much Chris.
You have a great aesthetic. The watches and the strap choices are just beautiful. Keep it up!
This is some real high quality content friend! Hope all is well!
Really appreciate your passion...
Yo Teddy. Thanks for the video. Massdrop had the junghans chrono today! Thanks for all the videos you put out. I really enjoy them :)
I heard about that actually! I feel people just associate me with max bill now lol. Thanks for watching as always Todd.
That’s a impressive collection and u just gave my so many impressions to what to watch for! I also got a 6.5 inch wrist and it really gets hard to find cool watches! Great work!👌🏻
That Wittnauer has an incredible story! Thanks for sharing, Teddy :) I wish I had a relative that was into horology or just a watch enthusiast, but I don't. I don't feel sad though, I see this as “being the first one in the family” (even if being the first one - or the only one - doesn't matter all that much). Many people don't understand the value of a watch, which has little to do with money, status or telling the time. Let alone a watch collection. I certainly know for sure that mine will evolve dramatically over the next few years because I just got started a 3 years ago and my tastes evolved quite dramatically. I wish I was less impatient with my acquisitions, because I want to get back to a leaner collection. But I have experienced new watches, new designs and - this might seem strange for some - new emotions. And this is what matters ultimately. In that regard, even if I'm more of a modern / sports watch guy (blessed with 6 inch wrists), I really do appreciate your collection :) Thanks for sharing and if you want to check my collection, be my guest! I posted it 2 weeks ago. Keep up the good work! Alessandro
I will check out your collection man. And every well said! Thanks for watching!
hey Teddy, congrats on the one year. I really do enjoy your videos and your prospective.
I too have a 6.25 inch wrist and have been crushing on a Nomos Orion. I know that you enjoy your 35mm have you ever wondered what a 33mm Orion would have been like?
I haven't been able to decide.
Looking forward to the near year's worth of videos!
Edit P.S.
Good job single handedly be fighting and bringing back dress watches without having to dip into haute horology with each piece.
Thank you, Max. I think the 33 mm would work for me as well. The 35 mm fits perfectly on me though. And believe it or not. I posted the original video 9 months ago!
Thanks for sharing the love for the dress piece. I hope they don’t become too cool because the deals are amazing on them.
Great video Teddy!! Great collection!
Love the story behind the last watch.
I was just wearing my grandfathers gold Concord today. I think of him every time I do.
Keep up the great videos!!
Nice collection, you have excellent taste young man! And a great story at the end!
Love the channel Teddy keep it up brother. How did you find that IWC it look amazing? Thank you
Man way to show and speak about the collection, great insight and knowledge about all the watches, but thanks for kicking us in the nads with the Wittnauer heirloom story, mad props to you Carl "teddy" that's an awesome and inspiring story to have for a touching piece!
Hahaha nothing like a good hit to the nads to remind yourself that you’re alive lol. Thanks for watching bro!
Beautiful collection, always love your content. Keep it up my friend!
Thank you so much, Nathan! I really appreciate your support.
what an elegant collection of watches. You have chosen well. I really enjoy your videos and feel I am learning about how to make more informed choices in my own collecting. Many thanks.
Very nice collection Teddy. I especially love the story behind the family heirloom watch. Keep up the good work brother.
Boy what a beautiful story about your great grandfather's watch. It honestly choked me up a bit. It's wild to me that your name, your family name, and the watch are all linked together throughout time which the watch is both a symbol of and a actual component to your journey. Amazing.
amazing story.. thank you for sharing it
I realize this is 5 years old but I appreciate your down to earth persona and good hearted sentiments! You, like myself enjoy minimalism, Omega, IWC and vintage watches! Great video!!
Very nice watches & story!
Thanks for sharing!!👍
I like your vids.. and really appreciate you sharing your personal story with us! Thank you
Savage vid bro! Keep it up..
That Omega constellation is pure class on your wrist Teddy. Stunning.
Nice collection. What a great story about your GG's watch. It has to be such a nice feeling to have that connection with him through that time piece. Cool stuff.
Good stuff! Love Love Love Your Omega Pie Pan. The Tudor Sub would be my 2nd favorite. Thanks for sharing the great story about you Great Grandfathers Watch.
I aspire to have a collection as meaningful to me as yours is to you. Starting my journey and trying to learn, so I’m glad I found your channel!
Very well done!
Fantastic collection and very good taste sir
Great collection, especially your vintage pieces. Your passion, the history behind, in particular with your "family watch" - just awesome 👏
Thank you so much my friend. I truly love the story behind these things...
That Omega with 30T movement though! It is in such good shape,love it
What a unique collection! I enjoyed seeing each one. Thanks!
Thank you so much my friend. I am glad you enjoyed it!
You have a fantastic collection! Love the 40's Omega and the IWC. I agree with your comment about vintage Omega. Excellent vid Teddy!
