Yea true, going out in general is expensive. I remember just last week, shouted my colleague breakfast at a coffee place, cost just north of $50 for 2 people. I got pancakes and a cold drink. Probably the last time I am shouting anyone anything. So for normal dinner $100 is pretty easy spent.
Kevin: For $300 dollars, instead of going out for dinner, just buy a watch. Teddy: Yeah, you really could, if you got a budget for food, but I mean...." is a very funny statement. The back and forth between these two is awesome.
I just “resurrected” my dad’s old Tissot (automatic circa 1950) a quick wind and the watch came to life. Took it to a watch repairman to have it tested and his eyebrows went up, he said it is “spot on”. He placed a new band on it. I have been wearing and it is keeping time beautifully and every time I look at it it reminds me my dad.
God bless you, brother. What a wonderful gift to remember those we love so much. I have an Omega given to my by my mother, who inherited it from my grandfather, who inherited from his dad. It's not running right now but I wear it on special occasions. We have a massive family, so being the one to receive that watch was an incredibly special moment.
Teddy and Mr. Wonderful complement each other's perspective and knowledge so well, and I could (and have) watch them for hours on end reviewing watches! The dynamic duo of watch collectors!
Great salesman at work. How many of those watches you think Teddy got a truckful of. Teddy needs to come up for air. He;s been going down on Mr. Wonderful for too long.
For me, my gateway was an Orient. The value for what you get is INSANE. I was able to afford it as a broke college student. Now, I have Grand Seikos, and it's all because of that initial Orient watch that got me hooked.
I'm so pleased that Mr. Wonderful liked the Hamilton. It is my favorite watch in that price range, and I'm so glad Kevin pointed out the little bit of red on the seconds hand, that detail really pops.
I love the tissot PRX! It’s such a beautiful design and like teddy says it’s got an oyster-Quartz vibe about the case which is amazing. I hope they release a smaller version soon
@@llstrixkk.calamity103 I have the PRX Automatic in green and I love it. The movement is awesome and the green is very subtle unless it hits the right light. I'd also check out the Tissot Gentleman before locking in the purchase.
I'm just a Teacher. All of this is out of my personal reach but I love watching your videos about watches. It's all about the love of the engineering and the appreciation of someone literally taking the time to push the limits and do their best. Fascinating, positive, uplifting videos.
What I do like about Teddy is his courage in his conviction. Having Kevin sat next to him would be a frustration to say the least, but he keeps his cool and I like that!
I would like to add to what Teddy said about Tissot, that it truly is a gateway into superior watches, but together with longines, I think these two brands are a really nice place to go for the first "real good Swiss" watch. I indeed own a fabulous longines flagship that was gifted to me at the age of 10, and it is stunning.
I know very little about watches but some of my favorite videos are with this duo. The quality and dynamic is really great. Thanks for the content, please do more with Teddy
Always love these great open and honest side-table conversations. That “Anordain Plum Fumé” watch is a great discovery. Teddy & Kevin; the “Dynamic Duo” of watches. Keep ‘em coming 🙂👍🏻
@@shadiahmad4848 if you want an affordable watch go buy a glycine. Really nice movement and finish for the price range. But in general nice watches are going to be expensive. Instead of complaining save money and spend smart and invest. If you can never afford to spend $1000 or more on something that makes you happy I feel bad for you.
Thanks to some decisions I've made in the past I can now afford 5-7K tier watches (I own 4 for now). But affordable will always be associated with the sub $300 category for me. That's what it was when I just started my watch journey with my beloved Orient Tristar (that I still own btw) and stayed like that ever since. I consider affordable based not on what I can afford but what the vast majority of people can and that is certainly far from 1k zone.
As a PRX 80 owner, let me tell you how true Teddy's statement regarding it being a gateway-drug was. Was never into watches but ever since I'm wearing this piece on my wrist, I started dreaming about wearing even more classy things like JLC's master control or cartie's Santos. I now consider watches or more specifically watch collecting as one of my major interests.
I love how he buys a bunch of cheap watches, then makes a video on them with an expert saying they are great pieces and undervalued/under appreciated, which gets a ton of people to buy them, thus raising the value. It’s genius.
It promotes Kevin O'Leary brand and Teddy. He probably also like talking watches you will find that among many collectors that they love discussing different watches.
It is more likely Kevin is an investor in Teddy's business and they are advertising watches you can buy from him. UA-cam pays them ad revenue while they promote watches, win win!
@@calmck2 Finally someone who called it for what it is. I watch for the interesting watches, and I like O'Leary's personality. TB - take him, or leave him.
So subtle are the matching chairs and shirt/pant color. Makes the whole shot very harmonious. Not sure if this was an accident or purposeful. If the latter, kudos.
These two guys have a fantastic chemistry. I could watch the 2 of them all day. Thry should incorporate traveling to interesting destinations together to shop for watches in cool cities.
Two people, a couple of drinks each $40, an appetizer $20 two main courses $80, and desert $25. So like $165? Maybe he just sprung for the $200 bottle of wine. Or he could mean for a whole family which will pretty quickly add up. I somehow spent $85 at red lobster last night and that was without desert Maybe California really is that expensive.
I agree. I snagged the bronze/ steel bico for 1700 new, and I think that’s about what these should be at MSRP. Too bad because I really like the colors!
@@NK-ib7qh Ok that’s what I thought it was. Well, honestly all I did was ask “what discount can you do on ______ model.” and that worked for all my watches except my Tudor Black Bay 58. That one was absolutely no discount
If your interested in the accutron I'd look at a vintage accutron spaceview, it's the real deal, actually has an accutron movement and is just way better looking, that thing is wayyy too busy imo...like many modern watches
Affordable is relative but i don’t think the average UA-cam viewer considers a watch over $2,000 as an “affordable” watch, most would consider that a luxury watch. They only had one watch under $550 and I didn’t like the one they showcased. So here are a few watches I like that I consider affordable, good quality, that look great too. Two are automatic and one a unique mecha quartz hybrid. All are available brand new directly from the company and all are under $400 brand new. Orient Kanno $235, Dan Henry Automatic Diver $270, Brew Retrograph Technicolor $375.
Amazing review of the collection that you have there. I like the Accutron the most. Please make more similar reviews like that at a lower price point. Thank you!
Surprised to see no love for Ball on here. IMO they’re very tough to beat in the $1,000-$2,000. The finishing is top notch and they have that watch making heritage around them.
I bought and returned the Seagull unfortunately. I caught it "frozen in time" on several occasions. If my wrist tilted a certain way, it would freeze up and stop ticking until I shook it. It may be $300, just beware it might not be able to tell the time...
Mine has done the same thing a couple of times, the start stop pusher also stopped working. However, this only happened after i had smacked the watch on a wall or something. My local watchmaker fixed it for free, was only one part in the movement that had to be wiggled! All in all very happy with the watch
This video is gold for someone like me who enjoys watches and does not know much about them. Thank you so much, I appreciate this video a lot, I am honored, thank you!
Always interesting to see what people consider as entry level or what they choose for their first purchase. My first “big”’purchase was a £45 Ricoh Medallion which was and still is stunning with a chocolate dial and original bracelet. Meanwhile I’ve seen folks asking what £10k watch they should buy as a gift for their father in law. It’s truly fascinating to hear opinions from multiple financial stand points. Now I’ve a Breitling 808, a few £1k+ chronographs and divers and I am always excited to see where my collection ends up. But I find it much harder to appreciate many watches I once aspired to buy. So it’s very interesting to hear what folks that spend tens if not hundreds of thousands on watches think on pieces that cost as much as their loose change 😅
“Instead of going out for food, you can buy a watch” (watch price $300) I think Kevin is slightly out of touch which what the average couple will spend on a meal out 🤣
@@JW-db8bz average date night meal out to a fairly nice restaurant for my girlfriend and me will cost about £40-50, which is like $55-70ish so way off 300
@@maxswatchbuilds8129 I'm from england bro. You aint going to that nice of restaurant and spending 20-25 quid a head. Especially if you're drinking as well. Well not in London anyway
@@JW-db8bz not in London maybe but here in Newcastle you can go to a pretty nice restaurant spending £18ish on a main (standard restaurant main is like £11 here) and £7 for a cocktail which is about £25 a head. Of course you can go more extravagant, but no chance does the average person ever get above £50 a head here unless they're going to the fanciest restaurant they can find, or they get like 4 cocktails with food. So that's still way off $300/£250 for a meal.
@@maxswatchbuilds8129 fair play mate. Yeah I think it depends on what sort of restaurant you're going if in London. Can easily go to a nice restaurant in London have two or three courses get a couple of bottles of wine and spend 80 - 100 quid a head
Two things for me. That Nomos has gotta have a better strap for that amount of money. And wow, that Zenith El Primero is dead sexy. When I was deciding between chronographs, I ultimately went with the Speedmaster over the El Primero because of servicing. If/when that El Primero needs a service, it's gonna cost a pretty penny. Servicing costs and the costs for parts for these niche movements is something that should be talked about more by watch collectors.
@@deansusec8745 not being rude but is English your second language? Can you please convey to me what you are trying to say? Are you saying the zodiac is “arguably on par” in finish and design to a Rolex?
Tissot is a great gateway - I would argue the Gentlemen Powermatic 80 Silicium is a more classic timeless choice (like Rolex Datejust) then a PRX but it’s personal choice.
My personal list : - Timex M79 automatic, gold dial, rubber strap for that 70's feel - Timex Waterbury flyback chronograph, absolute banger - Swatch speed up chronograph - Kuoe Old Smith 90-001, especially the green dial with the lychee leather strap. Most impressive finish I've seen in a watch of that price and best green dial I have ever seen (seriously).

@@AnthonyHernandez-qg5qx Thank you and wish you the same.
4:39 The way he puts away a $570 watch is some true respect to watches.

Always interesting to see what people consider as entry level or what they choose for their first purchase.
My first “big”’purchase was a £45 Ricoh Medallion which was and still is stunning with a chocolate dial and original bracelet. Meanwhile I’ve seen folks asking what £10k watch they should buy as a gift for their father in law.
It’s truly fascinating to hear opinions from multiple financial stand points.
Now I’ve a Breitling 808, a few £1k+ chronographs and divers and I am always excited to see where my collection ends up. But I find it much harder to appreciate many watches I once aspired to buy. So it’s very interesting to hear what folks that spend tens if not hundreds of thousands on watches think on pieces that cost as much as their loose change 😅
Having smashed one to bits, I will never spend more than $500 usd because then it's just a vanity purchase.
These videos are really great! Keep them coming!
This is the video we all want. My favorite will still be him ranting about Apple watches
Kevin just makes me laugh so much with his little personality quirks, these 2 together are brilliant!
“Instead of going out for food, you can buy a watch” (watch price $300) I think Kevin is slightly out of touch which what the average couple will spend on a meal out 🤣
It's not too far off that surely
@@JW-db8bz average date night meal out to a fairly nice restaurant for my girlfriend and me will cost about £40-50, which is like $55-70ish so way off 300
@@maxswatchbuilds8129 I'm from england bro. You aint going to that nice of restaurant and spending 20-25 quid a head. Especially if you're drinking as well. Well not in London anyway
@@JW-db8bz not in London maybe but here in Newcastle you can go to a pretty nice restaurant spending £18ish on a main (standard restaurant main is like £11 here) and £7 for a cocktail which is about £25 a head. Of course you can go more extravagant, but no chance does the average person ever get above £50 a head here unless they're going to the fanciest restaurant they can find, or they get like 4 cocktails with food. So that's still way off $300/£250 for a meal.
@@maxswatchbuilds8129 fair play mate. Yeah I think it depends on what sort of restaurant you're going if in London. Can easily go to a nice restaurant in London have two or three courses get a couple of bottles of wine and spend 80 - 100 quid a head
This was fun. I look forward to more videos like this
Great Video but BALTIC was missing for sure!
Kevin O’Leary’s best investment to date: collaborating with Teddy :)
I love how Kevin was fascinated at the fact a 300$ dollar watch actually worked 😂 as if to say a watch doesn't work unless it's 10 grand or more. 😂😢😅
Two things for me. That Nomos has gotta have a better strap for that amount of money. And wow, that Zenith El Primero is dead sexy. When I was deciding between chronographs, I ultimately went with the Speedmaster over the El Primero because of servicing. If/when that El Primero needs a service, it's gonna cost a pretty penny. Servicing costs and the costs for parts for these niche movements is something that should be talked about more by watch collectors.
I love that Candy Blue (and pink) with the bronze. I'd rock that on a casual day
Loved when it came to Rado and hearing the experts opinion
Literally laughed out loud when Kevin thought the zodiac was $17K 😂
🤣
Well, the Rolex would be. Arguably, looks on par in finish and design.
@@deansusec8745 not being rude but is English your second language? Can you please convey to me what you are trying to say? Are you saying the zodiac is “arguably on par” in finish and design to a Rolex?
@@Billeh556 yes and yes. I said it looks arguably like Rolex in finish and design. I'm writing on my phone, so there are mistakes sometimes.
@@deansusec8745
There are mistakes indeed, because it doesn’t look anywhere near Rolex in finish, let alone design.
Tissot is a great gateway - I would argue the Gentlemen Powermatic 80 Silicium is a more classic timeless choice (like Rolex Datejust) then a PRX but it’s personal choice.
the term affordable is far too relative haha
Agreed lol
That Zenith is gorgeous, Teddy.
My personal list :
- Timex M79 automatic, gold dial, rubber strap for that 70's feel
- Timex Waterbury flyback chronograph, absolute banger
- Swatch speed up chronograph
- Kuoe Old Smith 90-001, especially the green dial with the lychee leather strap. Most impressive finish I've seen in a watch of that price and best green dial I have ever seen (seriously).
I know damn well Kevin doesn’t wear those cheap watches 😂😂 someone correct me if I’m wrong lol
I can't imagine how many Kevin might have to choose from - anyone know how many are in his collection ??
@@andrewgedman1214 He does not disclose how many, and the location of the watches. He had 2 thefts before that stole multiple pieces. One he thinks was an inside job. He did a 3 part collection video with ProducerMichael and he talked about that
