Thank you for this! Having been into watches for several years, my collection was once worth $10,000 and now it’s worth under $1,000. You really don’t need to spend a lot for a great watch.
@@younusimam-thesalamproject6340 not really. I've still got expensive pieces, but I've stuck to sub 1000$. The amount of value you can get in that range is more than enough for me.
You have some great videos I’ve been watching for a couple years now. Please don’t assume because someone only wants to spend $1000 one is only getting into watches though…I’ve been fascinated with watches since I was a kid in the 70s, and while I don’t have the budget of Mr Wonderful, I enjoy a great value…your videos actually prompted me to purchase my first (non-smart) watch in over 10 years, and a brand I paid no attention to, the Citizen Fugu with green dial. I’ve been wearing it for the past month, and am extremely happy with this under $500US watch. Most of my other watches are Tissot (which, I also think can’t be beat for bang for the buck), and I think this Citizen might even be a better deal. Thanks for all your videos, I’ve definitely learned a lot watching them!!
A lot of nice looking watches . Week after week i become a HAMILTON fan and my second choice will be a SEIKO . After dreaming about watches from 5 k$ to 50 k$, it is difficult to come back to reality . Down to earth . Thank you so much to share your passion.
If I had to start over again with 1000$, my first pick would be a Glycine Airman GMT: brilliant movement, etched in watch history and looking gorgeous along with a casual or dressed up outfit. Wait for a good promo and grab one, then spend the rest on a Citizen Promaster automatic diver's 200 titanium. Bought that one to be my beater watch but love it so much I wear it almost daily. Light, tough, beautiful... titanium for 300$. Regulated it, now runs at +-2sec/day. Same for the Glycine. For
Good to see the Seiko love, and a little Citizen love, too. I ❤ my Citizen Orca. Great for fans of G-Shocks, and a good retort to those who think Citizen watches are boring.
I started my collection with two watches under $1500. I'm really excited to get them in the mail! Hamilton Khaki King - Champagne dial ($725) Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 - Ice Blue ($625)
A maximizer/sci fi movie nerd duo: A Hamilton Khaki Murph + a Casio CA53w calculator watch. You get a nice dressy GADA watch with the Murph, and a quirky casual beater with the calculator watch, and they're both tied to sci fi movies.
Citizen Promaster Diver Orca! Underrated watch, so glad to see it! 200M WR, rotating bezel, eco drive, screw down crown, cool dial design, AND stunning lume on it as well. The orca’s spots (indices) and both the hour and min hands all illuminate. Only miss is it’s a mineral crystal and not sapphire, but all in all it’s a stellar watch, and I’m happy it’s my go to beater.
I guess I'm that Seiko nut. 5 of my 10 watches are Seiko. My SSK005, and SPRE43 are a pretty great "under 1000 dollar" Collection on their own. Altho If i didn't already have a black dial driver, I would have gotten the back GMT. I paid about 700 for them together, that leaves 300 for my Wired (a Seiko JDM brand) Solidity AGAM701. Any I'd says you'd have a really well rounded collection. ANd you've still got 100 bucks for some spare straps, which will fit all 3 of them!
Hadn’t heard of Sternglas. Looks great! 40mm with thin bezel and white dial will wear big for a dress watch, however. Unless you’ve larger wrist >7” They’ve similar models in 38-39mm
I would do a Hamilton khaki field mechanical bronze for having a classic option with some intrigue and then a Seiko 5 gmt for a diverse sports option. I see them as complimentary opposites that would both be quite appropriate in most situations!
Mr wonderful's first watch and Teddy's first watch were Tissot's and it was the brand I had on the top of my list . Bets bang for buck brand for decades.
Honestly, these videos showcase a pretty good mentality for a beginner to think about watches: Know your budget, and then think about what purpose each piece in your collection serves. As someone who works in an office, I'd follow the "Maximizer" route: A beater like the Duro or a G-Shock, then go for something nice with the remainder of the budget.
@@wonderwatch2239 I had no/zero issues ordering on their website and the watch arrived in a timely manner. I only have a single watch from them so my experience is a sample size of one. It was a flawless experience.
By carefully eyeing sales and offers I have a fantastic collection for €1000. G shock 2100 Quartz PRX Seiko 5 Sports Orient bambino. Well aware that these are quite popular picks but it covers sports, dress, dive and utility and every scenario I could find myself in.
Man that Casio Duro! We live in awesome times, such a sharp looking watch for that price! Amazing. Was surprised of that. Maybe because I don't liek to look at Quartz generally, but it's so cool to have that option.
If I went microbrand only, then I would go with the Brew Metric and the Astor & banks Fortitude with the blue dial. My personal choice would be the Astor & Banks coupled with the Seiko PRX.
Teddy mine is the SSk05 boy seiko orange GMT and then the bulova surveyor blue. I call the combo the affordable contrast!!! Hehe hope you like my combo!
Orient Kamasu on a strapcode bracelet and that SRPF53 I suppose. $1000 is a bit short for me for a two watch collection though, I really like lots of options in the $750-1000 range.
"seiko fanboy". Lol thanks for the laugh Teddy. Lot of nice picks. I particuarly liked the Mido, and agree the Presage dials are very appealing. For me the cocktail dial might look better on a black leather strap. Agree it's sad that Seiko can't put sapphire in for that price. Their latest GMT diver series is tough to beat.
There's a lesser known diver in the Casio range, the MTD-1053D, with the same specs and in the same price range. To be considered now that the marlin is gone.
How about a video on budgetwise picks of dial designs. small seconds dial, compass, roman numerals, arabic, power reserve, skeleton dial, no bezel, duel crown, etc
I have a $1k 3 watch collection: -Orient Bambino 38mm -SKX033 pepsi (40mm is a little better) -Seagull 1963 All watches with a little history, and can still be had for a decent amount of money.
The white all lume Tissot PRX is really speaking to me. I am not usually a white band kinda guy. I prefer steel or my current favorite color and type is black or brown leather bands on the dressier side. But, this one, I like a lot. And the Duro, what can you say, I mean classic to me that’s all.
Hi Teddy, how come you almost never feature the Marathon GP/officer mechanical in these lists. I ordered one from you about two years ago (it just needed strap swap out e.g. neo-vintage Haveston Canvas Series M-1944C Watch Strap and its a knock out). In Feb I walked 5th Ave and stopping in the Grand Seiko store, even the clerk there admired it saying it was neatest pieces he'd ever seen.
Great watches mentioned. And keep up the amazing content. Always waiting for more such affordable watches video I would love to have a studio underdog watch plus a prx (maybe quartz) to fit the budget
I think a better fight is the f77 vs the CW 12. Integrated stainless steel, very similar design, almost same movements and prices. I think CW may have relegated the f77 to only the buyers looking for historical brands.
@@KC-bv9kf Just became aware of the CW 12 today while listening to the latest "The Grey NATO" Podcast. Would be good to see that comparison as well. As for "I think CW may have relegated the f77 to only the buyers looking for historical brands" I guess I'd be in that category. Don't own any CW and while they look nice, I have a watch problem already. Would rather expand to another Nivada Grenchen as they have history and I just love them, but that's me.
Great video! My $1000 2 piece is the Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical (38mm) Black PVD & Seiko 5 Field Sport SRPG35. And the Seiko looks great with Teddy's Olive One Piece Nylon NATO Strap!
It was good to see so many choices that weren't dive-style. I bought one of the first batch of Sternglas Naos automatics and still like it but the white dial and very narrow bezel make it look huge IMO, even though it's 38mm. Sadly they continue to introduce even larger watches instead of making a 36mm in neutral colours.
I absolutely did not expect me becoming a SEIKO fanboy. But I became one. Their offerings wipe the floor with many Swiss watches at the same or higher price point. I import mines directly from Japan to have that all important made in Japan on the dial.
I’ve a physical job which involves working in environments where a nice normal watch would be beaten up. I got a Hamilton khaki Scuba which isn’t really a dive watch but is built like one. 2 years and that watch is one tough piece of steel. It’s my daily wear & I’ve a Tudor BB & Railmaster which stay in watch rolls.
The Baltic MR01 is showing on the Baltic website with a hesalite crystal. The graph in the video is showing a saphire crystal. I assume the Baltic homepage is correct?
Currently at the start of my collecting journey, and at 2 watches now for around 1400 USD. I have a PRX Powermatic for dressier situations, and have the Bronze Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical. I wasn't planning on getting a 2nd watch (the khaki) so soon, but the bronze khaki is still pretty rare where I'm at, and I ended up pulling the trigger since I wanted an everyday watch that I loved and wouldn't be worried about scratching.
I'd like to get a word in for Vostok as well in terms of attainability. They have some funky designs and are generally very diver oriented, but they also have some more reserved options as well and are basically impossible to beat for the money. For under 100 bucks at times you get an automatic movement and 200m of water resistance. Case sizes and designs are equally varied and should harbour something for every size and taste. As for the precision, specs say minus 20 to plus 60, but my two amphibias run at plus 15 and the other one at around +8 seconds a day, which I think is exceptional for the money. So if you want something robust, attainable and mechanical, you only need to spend double of the Casio Duro's price and you get exactly that.
@@wonderwatch2239 yeah I understand... I just like their watches too much not to and if I may play devil's advocate a bit, I don't think a purchase or two on meranom will substantially finance the Russian war effort. But I do very much understand why it has become rather quite in regards to that brand and I apologize if my advocacy for Vostok was in any way insensitive to anyone. I just really wanted to highlight the watches above all.
Happiness is a Seiko diver. I would go for a quartz PRX and a Seiko turtle
Definitely covers all the bases
Poor fck
agreed
Killer combo
Personally srpe99 and a cocktail time probably the brown dial silver case one
I was worried Teddy was departing from his "affordable" watch video roots so this is a welcome return to form!
Hamilton khaki, seiko presage on bracelet, and a gshock is probably ideal imo
Thank you for this! Having been into watches for several years, my collection was once worth $10,000 and now it’s worth under $1,000. You really don’t need to spend a lot for a great watch.
Would love to hear about your journey!
I've been there. Mine is worth somewhere around 5k. At one point it was closer to 15k. I'm much happier with my collection now.
@@MeTaLISaWeSoMe95 that's amazing. You never miss the more expensive pieces?

Tissot Gentleman and Orient Kamasu. Done.
def the gentleman or the seastar.
This Mido Multifort Patrimony is beautiful.
That 556i is perfect. What a watch.

Buy a prx... I'm in love... I didn't know if buying a watch was worth it. Went quartz (same bracelet) and now I'm ready for more
Same. I bought a quartz PRX that was barely worn for 250 usd, best choice of my life.
Tough call for just two watches. I’d probably go Hamilton Khaki field automatic and a Seiko diver.
Suggestion for video: best made in USA watches or best non-swiss European watches ie UK/Germany
I went with the Hamilton Khaki field as a daily driver now, absolutely spot on. Looking forward to shopping for my next dress watch.
This is my mood today. Seiko "tank" (dress), tissot gentleman (every day), dw5600 gshock (or maybe a casioak)(beater).
All great options. I would totally want any of these in my collection.
Would love to also, see the Hamilton Murph or even the Alpinist/baby Alpinist
I would go for a quartz Tissot PRX as a casual watch and a Seiko Presage Cocktail Time with a leather strap for more formal occasions.
lol
Thanks Teddy, definitely going for the Seiko route.
Gotta LOVE that Presage series 😍
I’m not a Seiko “fan boy” but your two picks are spot on!! Thanks for sharing.
The Mido looks stunning!

My personal 2 watch collection: DW5600BB & blue Tissot PRX Powermatic 80!
Great video!
Just ordered my prx from you I’m super excited 🎉
Casio F-91W for everyday beater and Casio MQ-24-7E for dress and casual
lol
id rather not buy a watch
Hadn’t heard of Sternglas. Looks great! 40mm with thin bezel and white dial will wear big for a dress watch, however. Unless you’ve larger wrist >7” They’ve similar models in 38-39mm

Aristo is a brand that should be considered as well. German made with many models using a Selitto movement starting at $550 (US)

G shock 2100
Quartz PRX
Seiko 5 Sports
Orient bambino.

Love your content. Thanks teddy!
I'd go for the Hamilton Khaki and Tissot PRX. Nice!
I already have a Seiko 5 sports so for me, I will choose brew matic and prx
sometimes when i think about my watches im like man i love watches!

Man that Casio Duro! We live in awesome times, such a sharp looking watch for that price! Amazing. Was surprised of that. Maybe because I don't liek to look at Quartz generally, but it's so cool to have that option.
I just wish they'd made a 42mm or smaller version
The Mido Multifort Patrimony similar in looks and dimensions to VC FiftySix.
If I went microbrand only, then I would go with the Brew Metric and the Astor & banks Fortitude with the blue dial. My personal choice would be the Astor & Banks coupled with the Seiko PRX.
I have two Seiko Turtles, and a 6 1/4" wrist. They doo look big on me (especially in photos), but not at all ridiculous.
Teddy mine is the SSk05 boy seiko orange GMT and then the bulova surveyor blue. I call the combo the affordable contrast!!! Hehe hope you like my combo!
I'd have to go micro brand I think. Lorier Falcon 3 and the Nodus sector pilot - phantom. And I believe I still have enough left over for a f91-w 🤔
Hey Teddy nice video! I'd like to see your take on Seiko Prospex Night Vision Collection :)
That Mido Multifort… gorgeous
I'm wearing the Sternglas at the moment. Understated and elegant, just love it.
Orient Kamasu on a strapcode bracelet and that SRPF53 I suppose. $1000 is a bit short for me for a two watch collection though, I really like lots of options in the $750-1000 range.
Seiko king turtle and g shock 5600. I know it’s not 1000 but that’s my dream
Cocktail Time and PRX ❤

Casio Duro one of the best bois out there
Pound for pound, it's probably the best watch on this list
There's a lesser known diver in the Casio range, the MTD-1053D, with the same specs and in the same price range. To be considered now that the marlin is gone.
Get Orient Star Moonphase Open Heart (blue dial) and spend the last $30 on a blue leather strap 🙌
How about a video on budgetwise picks of dial designs. small seconds dial, compass, roman numerals, arabic, power reserve, skeleton dial, no bezel, duel crown, etc
The Mido is a beautiful looking watch but it would look even better without the date function, the date window breaks up a lovely clean dial.
I have a $1k 3 watch collection:
-Orient Bambino 38mm
-SKX033 pepsi (40mm is a little better)
-Seagull 1963

Tissot power attic 80 and an Orient Bambino version 7
You never talk about single-hand watches such as Meistersinger. What are your thoughts on those?
Well thought out vid, thanks for that, Teddy! For this collection, at least 1 watch has to be a Seiko. It's a no brainer. Thanks again.

For the perfect Seiko pair, I'd have gone one of the GMTs too, but paired it with the SSC813P1. It probably takes it a touch over the $1k
Best watch reviewer on UA-cam, hands down! I own some of these already because of your recommendation videos. Btw what is on your wrist in this video?
I’ve a physical job which involves working in environments where a nice normal watch would be beaten up.

2 years and that watch is one tough piece of steel.
It’s my daily wear & I’ve a Tudor BB & Railmaster which stay in watch rolls.

@@TeddyBaldassarre Thanks for confirming. Whished it was a sapphire crystal though as I really like the design of the watch!

- Sporty : Yema Rallygraf
Ordered a khaki auto with a nato strap recently. I think that and a tissot prx would be my two choices for under $1000.
Great video. Do this for $2,000 or $3,000 as well
Scurfa Diver One and Nivada Grenchen SuperAntarctic. That's pretty much all I need.
I'd definitely go for two CWCs, a classic G10 and one of their Quartz RN or SBS Divers.
