Love this! Being an average person, it's incredibly comforting seeing a watch UA-camr focus on affordable options. I feel like some watch UA-camrs forget that not everyone is made of money.
No doubt. The luxury brands were more accessible before the quartz crisis so now they intentionally market themselves with insane prices relying more on name currently.
@@מימוןבןאברהם seriously. I did a quick calculation on the Rolex Air King when it was first released. In 2023 currency, it cost about as much as a Seiko SRPE37
@119fatty Omg!!! That is outrageous! Also, I have heard too Rolex watches are no longer truly hand-made. They intentionally limit the units per year and hype it up to people who are more into a brand rather than having a quality product.
These past two weeks I have been looking for a decently priced gerald gents watch, this video couldn't have been released at a better time. Keep up the great work!
I just ran across the F77 and wanted to see if anyone had reviewed it. To my delight, you produced an excellent review that provided the insight I needed to possibly purchase this watch. Thanks so much.
Great review, as always. The Nuun caught my attention the most - slender, ease of bracelet/strap change, Arabic typography. These days, I am into quartz much more than I used to be. A winner for sure!
Great video as always! All 3 are a great alternatives. I personally closed this Genta itching with quartz prx, as for me it's about the style and shape, not the movement
Agree with you 100 % man , Tissot it’s much more fun watch than all these 3 affordable “options” even that said what’s the point of review just these brands a Casio should be mentioned ok it was near the balance weight 😉 buy me , pay me …
Well my man, I have watched them all, but you remain where others have fallen. I so enjoy your show. It is so much different and above the others. Thank you for what you do. I have no idea why, but I love to watch your shows on Friday evenings. Very special to me. Press on regardless.
Nivada is slowly starting to become my favourite brand! I really love their designs and the story behind the brand. Awesome video TGV, the F77 is on my wishlist✅
I'm scrolling through UA-cam for watch videos, and my brain told me to click on TGV! Tristano, I love the beginning of this video... The seventies nostalgia is amazing and very much appreciated! Please, do videos like this again. I absolutely loved it! And by the way, your suggestions were on point!👍
Thank you Joseph, I very much appreciate it. Onwards and upward! Best regards, TGV Ps. If you enjoyed this intro, check this one out if you missed it 😉 ua-cam.com/video/GjEA7lYWuwE/v-deo.html
Very nicely done. Brands to look for as an alternative to something worth a small mortgage. Thank you, TGV for making this video and suggesting some additions to the collection.
Totally unrelated to this video, but I tried on the Black Bay 54 today and I have a feeling you will love it, TGV…looking forward to you getting your hands on it!
Woah as someone who lived j In Bahrain these Nuun watches are amazing. I feel like I have to get one just for that connection alone! Love the Arabic numerals, very well done!
Great show! They always are! I love all 3 watches and I really like the Maen Manhattan 37. I’m just about to turn 50 and my loving wife has bought me a Zenith Defy Skyline! It’s stunning! Yes it’s expensive but no where near the price of the holy trinity watches or the new IWC but I think it’s real class! It is without doubt the greatest gift I have ever received and o feel that I’m the luckiest man alive that my wife bought me such a magnificent gift and timepiece!
Wow, you certainly are lucky, she has great taste. I recently saw one, amazing watches. Absolute class as you say. Thank you for sharing that, enjoy 🥂😎 Best regards, TGV
Good evening TGV! With Watches & Wonders behind us, I think it's fair to say that 2023 we're having a Genta-revival! With the watches in the video I'm torn beteeen the Maen and the Nivada. The Maen reminds me of an old Junghans-watch that was passed on to me. Great video, nicely executed! Have a great evening!
I don't blame you for being torn, both pure class in different ways. As for W&W, wow, over already?!?! Thank you as always my friend, have a great evening and weekend too! 🥂😎 Best regards, TGV
@@theurbangentry Just realised there are two days more left for W&W 😂 I was maybe a bit metaphoric in the sense that all the big brands have announced their new releases. And there are some really nice pieces this year, like the BB54. And the 1908, what a classy piece! I find it very remerkable that Rolex release one of their dressiest watches in years, whereas Patek Philippe goes sporty with the 6007G.
The Nivada is a beauty but for me the Maen is probably the most interesting of the three, especially because of that beautiful dial. Also, the editing of this video is, as always, as gorgeous as the watches that are presented.
Wow that strap on your Dan Henry looks class sir. Great video as always. One thing about the 70s that can be said is it gave birth to some stunning watch designs. Bold, occasionally in your face but definitely distinctive to that decade. I love my early 70s Ricoh automatic with it's transitioning gold to black dial. Thanks for the video and have a smashing weekend 👍
VERY VERY true what you say about 70s design. Thank you Chris as always. As for Ricoh, yesssss, they had some really crazy stuff back then, much more adventures than Seiko and Citizen at the time, however, how the tables had turned by the 80s. Have a wonderful weekend too! Best regards, TGV
The Nivada in blue, no date, is a total slam dunk! My favorite dial of the three, and that double domed crystal really brings the dial to life. A cool alternative to the now-ubiquitous PRX, too. The F77 would also look great with a sashiko fabric jacket of some kind... I'm doomed! Great episode - I've been daydreaming about something Genta-esque that won't leave me wearing a barrel.
Thank you TGV. I really like the F77. I would consider adding it to my collection. I do have a Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 blue dial variant. To me, it is a cracking watch. I understand the concerns about servicing. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
I just bought a 1982 omega constellation quartz marina black “port hole” ref 396.0879 designed by “Gerald genta !! Possibly as they say but definitely” fits better than any watch I’ve ever owned and I’m 43 years old. Grab them when you can cheap as chips they made a white dial with out the horizontal lines only in 1981 which is on my radar. Again love the show TGV #1
Can I also add, I bought a 369 tropical dial NIVADA GRENCHEN 38mm and it was shipped from Mendrisio Switzerland a month later than stated and when I finally got it the seconds hand fell off 4.5 days a ee I was wearing it. Emails later and zero response so I had to fix it by my local jewel ee watch repair really bad service worst I’ve had in all my life. Warning ❗️
Bravo TGV! What a classy and distinctive group of fine classic-sized, well made and affordable watches that stand on their own. Forget the Royal Oak and the Nautilus! 😅
I have the 35mm PRX in quartz, and I have to say the value is incredible. I absolutely love it. I haven't spent much time with a Powermatic, but I get the impression that - at nearly twice the price - it doesn't pack the same punch in terms of value.
I don't know how I'd put a value on the pleasure I get from frequently just staring at the beautful textured dial of the automatic version, but I do know I'm glad I paid the extra. It's not the phenominal value the quartz model is, but its still bloody amazingly good value for money.
@@alexbusson4414 Luckily (or in some cases unluckily) for me I've got big wrists and hands so its perfectly proportioned. My only regret is I went for blue and now I wish I'd gone for green.
Thanks for the video. Been looking for more images/videos and insight into the F77. Pretty much plan to get the blue dial with date when it comes out in about a week from today.
Being a Natostrapguy, I‘m totally hyped by the Integrated-bracelet-trend.. love the new IWC Ingenieur.. or the Yema Wristmaster Microrotor… still thinking wether I should preorder it… probably I‘ll buy a PRX first, to see if it’s suits my style… BTW, the Nivada looks marvellous!! Great Video, TGV…thank you so much!!
Nivada is stunning. I recently modded my tough solar square G-Shock G-5600UE with metal case & bracelet. The first impression of the effect is a steroid version of Nautilus with its ears and brushed square bezel. So in a way, Casio has both RO (with 2100 series) and Nautilus (with 5000series) homage watches in retro-futuristic version.
The Maen is cool, but I'm really intrigued by the F77. It's the first attainably priced integrated bracelet watch to catch my attention since the PRX. I almost ordered a PRX Powermatic in ice blue recently, but ended up making a big purchase so that will have to wait. The I appreciate the heritage of the F77 and the dial and look are just so good. I would probably get the blue with date as well, if I were to get one. I'm definitely keeping it on my consideration list, but I must hold off on purchases for a bit. Maybe one of these will be my ask for my birthday later this year.
Your production adds artistic flair to presenting watch-focused content. Entertaining, engaging, and informative. Perhaps to add to this eclectic and attainable options --> Michel Herbelin's Cap Camarat which comes in both automatic and quartz options. Speaking of which - a suggestion for future content: French watch manufacturers (outside of Cartier) such as Yema, Lip, Herbelin, etc. It would be interesting to hear your stance on these. Thank you for your work. Fantastic as always.
If not for TUG I would never know about these three exquisite brands and their retro collections. I'm particularly interested in the Nuun Montre at its price point and looks. I may pull the trigger and get one from their website. Thank you so much for this wonderful video!
@The Urban Entry , If it was you, would you pick the F77 or the CW 12? Or maybe to make even less of a reasonable comparison, or lastly the Nivida Antarctic? All good looking watches, so I think it can be helpful to hear your own impressions given how I respect Your outlooks on watches I have heard you talk about in the past. Thanks and love the vids 🤌.
Another great video, I must admit I have always steered towards field watches, only when i saw your Santos from previous videos did I think, 'now I like that', not sure why but the Santos just ticked a lot of boxes. I must revisit this style of watch. Good to see Get Carter among others in your fine B Roll.
Thank you, I totally get it about the Santos, I was the same way about square-ish watches, after the Santos I grew to love them. As for Get Carter, one of my all time faves, in fact I have the poster on my wall.

Another very enjoyable and beautifully made video TGV! If you still have your SARB bracelet it’s worth trying it on your 1962. The fit is close enough to work well and it transforms it into more of a modern sports look (the Uncle Seiko jubilee for the SARB also fits it). Thanks again! 🍸
Man I really like all 3 watches very sleek looking but by far the Manhattan by far love how clever hands love the dial and blue is my fav color what ever watch people decided to get one thing is for sure they well be happy.
Suspiria and Dressed To Kill in the montage! ❤ I’ve been so close to pulling the trigger on the F77, but the messy end link area bothers me too much. Maybe I’ll get over it.
I was seriously considering the PRX, but it left me a bit ho-hum, but the Nivada F77 just has so much more of that "wow factor" for me. I am on the waiting list.

@tgv: Fun fact, the Maen Manhattan is the homage of the Vacheron Constantine Royal Chronometer of the 70s, not the infamous RO

The 1970s was quite the decade. Incredible.

Love that Nivada Grenchen. Also big fan of the Yema Wristmaster Traveller in this category
YESSSSS!!! I was considering getting one. Not sure after experiencing the F77.
Yema did an amazing job with the WM,
Thank you,
Best regards,
TGV
I was looking through the comments for the Yema WM. Bought it a few months ago, love this watch!
Bonjour !. Sur la Nivada Grenchen F77, sur la version no date, il n'y a pas de position fantôme !
Fantastic video!
I was seriously considering the PRX, but it left me a bit ho-hum, but the Nivada F77 just has so much more of that "wow factor" for me. I am on the waiting list.
Awsome intro and overall excellent work
The Maen wins it here for me. Now I just need a comparison to a PRX.
The Nivada looks great, very nice.
