Thank you for watching.
The Toilet Paper on the wall is F'n epic! Stay safe!
I spotted that too.. hilarious!
7:30 handling a gshock with gloves? ... we are living strange times indeed. Stay safe Mark, I really enjoyed this one!
Lol. Containment!
In 1000 years G-Shock will have the same value as Submariners in the 60s!😂
That Sinn is so freaking handsome. Simple, to the point, easy to read, and yet beautiful. Epitome of German design.
Digging the new art! Must have been an expensive piece, very rare nowadays 😄
I commissioned it to Mr Charmin.
Lol it’s the new way to flex and flaunt your wealth
@@islandwatch Cottonelle is much better and doesn't stick to you. :-)
I'm taking the first Patek I can find a zombie wearing. Just think of all the watches of which we'll be able to choose.
lmao Im with Darrell lets do it
Gotta say the good old G-shock 5610 has seen 100% of wrist time in the past couple weeks and will be on for the foreseeable future. Nice to have something I know will handle anything I throw at it. No worries about various cleaners getting on it, and wash it along with my hands every time. Plus, this way I never even have to pause to think about what is on the wrist before doing any cleaning. Sure I guess any of my divers would be fine too, but the G Shock is just made for this.
Stay safe all.
Thank you, same to you.
I think I would take my amphibia and gshock gw7900 solar. I have a gshock g510d similar to the one in the video. Very tough watch but sadly not solar. Finally it would have to be the Inox I bought about 6 week's ago.
I have a Citizen titanium Nighthawk, that my ex bought for me while we were in Italy, 6 years ago. I figured I’d beat the shit out of it at work, and I’d just toss it when it looked like crap. I can’t put a mark in this watch and I finally decided that it loves me and I’ll keep it forever.
Here are my 3 watches for the apocalypse:
Mechanical: Damasko DK11
Quartz: Victorinox I.N.O.X. Titanium
Solar: Casio G-Shock Frogman GWF1000-1
Nice choices!
Mine would be:
G shock mudmaster
Tudor Black Bay 58
Panerai 112
great choices , just found out about Damasko I think their watches look pretty nice
Had to be a G Shock in there. That would be my choice for the apocalypse. Unless it was a more formal affair then perhaps my Oceanus. 😁 Stay safe Marc and thanks for keeping with the videos!
Thanks. You too
Great choices. Nice, big and chunky, and perfect bludgeons for the zombie apocalypse...
Marc, I now have a roll of T.P. on the wall of my hobby room. It's temporarily in the spot that will one day be occupied by a very cool poster. Perhaps a signed poster by a GIANT in the watch industry. Thanks for the light-hearted humor during these times. Be well...... Peace ☮️
Thanks for giving me a chuckle as well
@@islandwatch Marc, are the L.I. field/military style watches in stock yet? When they are I'm buying one. Can I get on a waiting list? Or just check site everyday?
I've name my roll T.P. Journe.
WOAH the U 1 is one my favorite of all 3 thanks Mark great looking pieces....
Just needs to be a “sterile” dial right?
Lol. I get it
Interesting video and topic, Marc! I looked at my collection and I would pick only 2 watches for the apocalypse!
1. Citizen Promaster Diver with Eco-Drive. So, it is 200m ISO certified diver that is solar charged and I think it has the strongest lume of the bunch. I think Jody tested it on Lume Wars and light lasted longer than Rolex Submariner. My definitive choice.
2. Seiko 5 - snk805k2. Green, field like watch that kinda lasts forever.
I could pick third watch: G-shock, but it is powered by battery and I'd rather not take simple battery quartz that would die in 2 or 3 years. I imagine it would be pain to search for batteries...
Thanks for the picks!
I would only want a mechanical watch for the long-haul. I agree with the Sinn, but I’d have a Marathon GSAR, and a Damasko for the other two. All theee are extremely durable timepieces that should last a long time.
Thank you for not just making a video of your own brand watches. This was very well done.
Oh....What an unusual watch winder Mark! .....I don't think I've ever seen a wall mounted one before!
Ha! Would be perfect
I knew one of them had to be a G-Shock.
That toilet paper roll in the background replace "the math clock"?
A great video. I love the U1: so clean, so simple. Submarine not included. The other two aren't too shabby either. Did I say great video?
Toilet paper with every Long Islander you buy! That roll on the wall though..🤣🤣🤣
LOL!
For some reason I like all my watches, to be where I'd never have to replace a battery. Has to be Either automatic, or solar for quartz
Solar batteries don't last forever.
Love the functionality of the Yes Cosmo (?) Cheers for the cheerful video, sray well 👍🏻
Thanks, you too.
Thank you for entertaining us during these tough times! Please, Mark, if you can, could you make us more videos, like... daily??? Thanks!
Hello from Madrid. We are now entering the second week of lockdown. I Wish you and everybody the best of luck.
Thank you, same to you.
Keep it up man! Nothing lasts forever, we latino's are irresponsible in all fields of life. So keep yourself safe even the other won't
David hope all is well !
Thanks for a fun video and a welcome
Distraction. Very kind of you to make the time.
:-)
Cool picks, I've never seen a Yes before. All the best to you Mark.
Wall clock reads: it's loo o'clock... love your sense of humour
On the G-Shock hold the light button for 3 seconds for the automatic function.
With a little TLC, I would bet on the Sinn outlasting all of them. Especially if there is ever an EMP event. Great choices, all.
When I saw the thumbnail for the video, I knew it would be one to brighten my day, thanks ! 😆👍.
You are welcome.
15 sec. into your video I saw the TP on the wall. (The writing on the wall?). You are so cool. You made me laugh and that's a good thing. Great video. Yes, Sinn is a MONSTER!
Thank you for this, Very Inspiring. My Apocalypse watch is a Marathon.
I will trade you a huge roll of toilet paper for your Sinn. Its 2 ply....😉
I got the TP. Will trade for a watch ;)
A Daniel Wellington for 3 sheets of that waxy stuff?
Haha :)
@@timeandnourishment1961 deal
I was wondering what kind of content we’d be seeing from the watch community after this week. What a perfect video for this moment!
Thanks!
Maybe we'll see the reverse Quartz Crisis coming - LOL.
Nice watches Marc, love the U1, great Casio choice and that Yes watch, wow it does a lot.
That would be awesome!
The Sinn U1 is definitely a watch I will own in the future. I do want it on the bracelet though.
I would recommend the bracelet highly.
I have had a Sinn U1 SE for three years now; wear it 24/7. Terrific watch.
10:18 the problem with the tilt-activate automatic on light for the g-shock, it can kill the battery if you do not shut it off
As usual great vid.
My apocalypse watches:
:Gshock DW5600
:Citizen BN00885 can also be used as a weapon!
: Long Island Sundial. (You'll be minted!)
Thanks for sharing those. The Yes watch is fascinating, I now want that Sinn and the G-Shocks always crack me up. They are ridiculous looking but I know people love them. Please show more from your collection!
Thoughtful and upbeat presentation in difficult times. Thanks, Marc! 😎
You are welcome.
I’d definitely take one or two of my solar atomic G Shocks, Tag Heuer Aquaracer titanium, and a Deep Blue auto 500m diver. Nice picks Marc! Thanks and stay safe. 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Nice. Thanks and you too!
Thanks for keeping the Longilan spirit, everyone else is thinking transistor radio, food, weapon for protection, important documents, we think watch, car, shoes and phone, don't forget the toilet paper...😦🤗🤔😆
Never forget the TP!
Love the Sinn U1 👍😉
Thanks, it's a fave of mine.
Id take ANY solar powered watch with some water resisitance and can give you barameter readings. You can use Barameter changes to tell if the weather is giong to change in the next few hours. G shock is fine but too many people overlook protreks. Also loom don't do shit for you at 2 in the morning so get something with a backlight.
A roll of tp on the wall, gives a whole new meaning to wallpaper.
Ha, funny to see this. I was thinking this back in January, wondering what watches would be best for the apocalypse. My collection for the same:
Mechanical: Sinn 104
Quartz: Casio Royale plus a spicy red jelly G-Shock
Solar: Citizen Nighthawk and G-Shock Rangeman
Hey Mark, just got my Seiko SKX007, LOVE it! Thx for great store.
You are welcome!
3 cool watches. I really like that Yes Cosmos watch. Looks like a lot of fun and conversation from that.
Found the day date function on my damasko essential this past couple of weeks.....easy to lose track on lock down
If everything else fails, my manual winding Vostok Komandirskie will still be there. Take that, EMP! After that the Citizen Blue Angels. I agree with the g-shock
When your image popped up on my phone. I immediately thought of Apocalypse Now when they pleyed The End by Jim Morrison.
All the best to you and all.
Thank you, same!
I was thinking "the end of the world as we know it .. and I feel fine" by R.E.M.
@@karlsenula9495 perhaps that the song we should wash our hands too.
...aaaaaaaaaaaand I just picked up the Marathon from your website AS my Apocalypse watch!
My watch choice for the Apocalypse would be the watch James Coburn wore in the Our Man Flint movies.
YES! Please
EXACTLY you can be good as dead yet the watch will start your pulse, LATER when it`s the right time. Might as well pick up the matching gold lighter, or is it really A DEADLY GUN!!!
The T.P. was hilarious Mark! :)
Thank you :)
Hi Mark: l I really enjoyed the presentation on the three apocalypse watches. Particularly the Sinn. It's nice to see a watch where the minute hand actually goes out to the chapter ring. The multi-function Yes watch is also of particular interest to me. It is definitely a watch for the cognoscenti. (Italian for "knowledgable avid enthusiast").
Hey Mark, the atomic clock hangs out in Boulder Colorado at NIST, the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The name of the clock used is NIST-F1 and it is the primary standard for time and frequency in the USA. It’s accuracy is within +/- 1 second in over 100 million years. Fort Collins is north of Boulder about 1 hr drive.
Thanks much!
No marathon on an apocalypse list!?! I'm going JDD all day.
Practicality /functionality and a perpetual calendar , solar G-shock all day long .
not a perpetual calendar, just an auto calendar until 2099.
I will send you 12 rolls for the Sinn U1 . Hurry before we get wiped out
Lol. Nice, I see what you did there!
Hey Mark, just when I finally got the clock on the wall behind you figured out, you change it. Now it'll take me another dozen or so videos to figure out the new one!
Lol
Cool pics, keep your chin up mate, we'll get through this. You can count on it, 😉👍⏳
Mark,..that Sinn U1 is over the top. I just ordered an SRP779J1 last night,...and it's on the way to the VERY remote Alaska location where I work as a pro contract firefighter. My quartz chrono (Isobrite 401 T100),..just decided to stop telling time. The stop watch function, including all the hands, work fine, but the second hand won't move in time keeping mode, nor will the hour and minute hands. I ordered batteries that will hopefully arrive in two weeks, just to see if batteries will solve the issues with the quartz watch, but I've got a bad feeling since the stop watch functions all work fine, but the time keeping does not. If I"m lucky, my new Turtle maybe the same plane that will bring the batteries. If batteries solve the problem,...I'm gonna sell it, as it's been recently serviced and documented as passed. Aug of 2018,...had my Isobrite Chrono serviced....and here I am, dead in the water with a watch that is SUPPOSED to have a 54 month battery life. I hate not having it on my wrist, but now it's basically as useful as teats on a boar. Having an automatic will solve that issue for me, and also give me a chance to learn more about them. I've spent a lot of my spare time watching your videos and those of others who are modding these Seikos,...and it gives me something new to learn about. I really like your channel and presentation style and have learned a bunch from you. Stay safe.
You stay safe too, thank you.
Carrying a watch in the apocalypse, I see you’re an optimist.
Press and hold the light button on the G-Shock to turn on/off the auto light feature.
Solar g-shock is honestly all you need. I love collecting watches but I ain't toting 3 watches around me when I'm living a nomadic wretched life.
My 3 picks among the ones I have right now:
1. Auto - Orient M-Force "Beast" Lefty
2. Quartz - Victorinox I.N.O.X. - I would really want to take this but since it needs a battery change I would probably take my Casio Gulfmaster GWN 1000 instead.
3. Solar - Casio Rangeman (GW-9400)
Awesome, thanks.
Hold the G-Shock button for about 3 seconds to turn off the "wrist flick" feature. Mine beep when I turn it on and off. Not all of them do.
thank you for this cool and entertaining video Marc!
Mark's Apocalypse priority list:
1. Grab watches
2. Watch repair kit
3. Toilet paper
4. Kids (Maybe)
LOL on #4 !!!
Definitely made me smile, thanks. :)
Eco drive ! Thanks for giving us a break from the news
Welcome
Best thumbnail ever! 🤣🤣🤣 Love your sense of humour! 😊👍
"Today's gonna be a fun video"...the end of the world haha (love that Sinn)
Lol. Thank you
Today I’m wearing a Seiko SNK809 that was my first automatic and a G-SHOCK Rangeman. The Rangeman is my go too SHTF watch but I’d always rock 2 because 2 is 1 and 1 is none.
Haha, true statement!
excellent selection and thanks for a little levity.
You are welcome.
Mark, I was surprised a Damasko didn't make this list.
I am participating in a challenge to wear a different watch every day in March. Coincidentally, I had selected my Casio G-SHOCK MTG-M900DA-8CR, an updated version of your Casio, to wear today.
Take the U1 to the apokalypse because your G-Shock, although solar powered, contains a battery that will eventually loose charge. I just had to change mine and it sucked beause of three little springs hopping out of the case. That got me thinking of TGV, who made video where he basically said: "No more Casio for me, i'm casioed out."
Last but not least; let's hope that this is not the beginning of a real-world-living-dead-thing! Stay safe and well.
Mine was a casio Protrec altimeter, barometer, compass, alarms (with snooze) timer, stop watch, solar powered, atomic time.
It doesn't have the cool factor of being a mechanical but I have the seiko bottle cap (which I got from you and love ;) for that.
Thanks for sharing.
Maybe a casio Protrek PRW-2500
The news gets depressing so thanks for the video. Definitely take the U1 and your current legacy islander. Stay safe and enjoy the family time.
Dig the U1! Thanks for the wishes
Love from India , stay safe Buddy we are still at stage 3, but I will take my G-5600 to the grave if it comes to this over these three watches!!
I will time the apocalypse with my 3 GX-56 G-Shocks.Quartz, solar, G-Shock tough. And the calendar is good thru Dec 31, 2099.
I've thought about this time and again, what would I grab in an apocalyptic scenario. I wouldn't grab anything automatic or battery quarts, so it would have to be something solar. In my collection I have 4 solar watches, 2 citizen eco drives, a seiko 'Arnie' and a gshock GW-6900. Out of those 4, I would most likely take the gshock, because of its durability and functionality.
Hey there Mark.. Frank here from Boulder.. where we also have the atomic clock at the National Institutes for Standards & Tec. I lived in Fort Collins.. an hour north of me for many years.. and Astoria where I was born.. worked at the wonderful Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corp. Proud of my heritage.. Hey, do you carry the correct battery for my Casio MDV-102.. and the case back opener?
Best! May I borrow that TP??
Frank Bruno, boulder, Colorado
My choice for an apocalypse watch is my Casio G-Shock GW-B5600HR-1ER.
I'm not sure how usefull blutooth and multi-band 6 will be in the end times. But being solar powered I'm sure it'll last longer than I will.
And my Seiko SKX013 too.
LOL. My thoughts exactly on the solar.
If the world is coming to an end, the only watch you need is an Islander! Cheers from Denmark the Stig
True! Thanks
I believe if you hold down the 'light' button for a few seconds on that Casio, it will then work when you turn your wrist, which is really neat!
Thanks for that! I do believe you are correct.
@@islandwatch You're welcome! I'm new to your channel, and I've been binging on Watch and Learn, and enjoying your stuff very much.
Interesting content. Regards.
Thank you John.
Hi Mark, I realise that you have not reviewed every watch on the planet, but can you advise. I normally do my own bracelet link adjustments and have just purchased the Casio Edifice ECB-800D-1AER which has the link adjustment on the inside of the bracelet. How do I tackle this one? Many thanks. Terry Davis
Love my Sinn U1, my favorite watch.There are casio gshock with solar, multiband 5 and moon phase.
Cool!
Toilet roll is the official currency of Britain right now ! you have about £100 on your wall HaHa.
Stay Well Mark!
Lol!
My choice....my JLC Geophysic 1958 Limited Edition. Robust, dead-on accurate, 100m WR, versatile, packed with the latest technology, ceramic bearings for years of service-free use, and can be sold for a decent buck in a pinch. It’s been a trusty companion for many years.
Great choices!
I really, really, love the Sinn. Great choice. Myself, I don't own expensive watches, out of my collection it is going to be a G-Shock DW 5610 and an Orient Mako II. Very happy with these watches. Stay save Mark!
You too, thank you
Love the post, Mark!
Watch two is so unloveable but I like the moon complication and the S.O.L. reference!! Stay safe and happy and healthy, dear internet dude! ✌️👍
Thanks Joe. Same to you!
Lots of respect from Brooklyn man! But, would you sincerely take a mechanical watch with you if the world was ending?
As one of them!
@@islandwatch I assume for emotional reasons though. Right? How would you have it serviced after a couple of years? Even a non solar quartz one doesn't make too much sense as it would need battery replacement.
solar g-shock with a compass ( I own one) and if I had my pick a solar g-shock with the triple sensor
I've never ever heard of a Yes Watch... Very interesting. Thanks! PS. You have to include a dress watch for formal occasions...even during the Apocalypse because we're not animals... LOL. Just having a flashback to the movie Omega Man, with Charlton Heston having a formal candlelit dinner with his statue of Caesar. I'm sure TGV would agree. LOL Onwards and Upwards! :-) Thanks, Marc!
Thank you! Good point.
