- Thank you so much for WATCHing my video and I hope that you check out all my other content.
I release 3 videos per week, all watch related, including reviews, first impressions and general watch related topics.
I try very hard to diversify my content. Featuring known watch brands, microbrands, Aliexpress. Some I have purchased new, others second hand.
The majority of the watches that I feature I have purchased. I buy them to enjoy, wear, have in my collection. I then also feature them on this channel.
Being a smaller channel it is challenging to cover the cost of all the watches that I buy and partly because of this I have become an affiliate member with a number of companies including Aliexpress and Ashford.com.
If you are looking for watches from well known brands then it is worth checking out:
www.ashford.com
If you are looking for great strap options then definitely check out:
vario.sg/
and
artemstraps.com/collections/s...
As an affiliate member I may leave affiliate links in the descriptions of videos. These links will direct you to the watches that I’ve experienced, reviewed and would certainly recommend. If you choose to use those links I will earn a very small commission.
Thank you very much if you choose to use those links.
Below are affiliate links for my absolute favourite watches on Aliexpress. Each of them I have owned and had positive experiences with the stores that they are linked to.

A slightly different video today. Thanks for indulging me by WATCHing
Stunning scenery, when your experiencing views like those, wow!. Really enjoyed your different format video.
Thank you. I really enjoyed putting this one together.
Thanks for taking us along. Your wife is a lot more supportive than mine would have been on our vacation. Ha! I look forward to more travel/watch content!
She is fantastic and very supportive. Which I know is not always a given when it comes to these types of interests
Love the vid & love the watches. Most people don’t understand a person’s love for watches. We’re different. In a good way. Can relate to your experiences & loving the content.
Keep it up James.
Thank you. It was great to combine two of my favourite things. Watches and travel.
Glad I didn't miss this one. Beautiful landscape shots, and great watches. This one may be tough to beat. great job. 👍👍
Thank you. It was a great holiday and was fun to put together this video
Great video! Thanks for sharing the great views and good looking watches!
Thanks for WATCHing
Looked like a lovely varied and active vacation.
It was nice to be able to do a number of different things all on the same holiday
Some beautiful nature sceneries and a Ballon Bleu. Nice video!
Thanks for WATCHing
I'm a big fan of those GO watches, they're gorgeous! Soft spot for the PanoReverse in green. But I have a Martin Design Regulator watch coming later this year from the kickstarter campaign, which I think will scratch the itch for a good while.
Thanks for WATCHing
As long as there is no photo of you in a budgy smuggler i'm looking forward to the vacation photos.
Hahahahaha. Thankfully none of those
Brilliant video James, great to see such amazing places and lovely watches to boot, cheers mate 😄
Thank you very much.
Hi james great video one of your best it's so good to see you out and about it doe's make the content better.and what a place to go it brings back great memories of new Zealand (not been to Australia yet) and how beautiful this country is and to see all the watches on your travels 👍 thanks John from UK
Thank you. I enjoyed putting this one together.
Hope to improve upon it in the future.
Loved the video James. Very sporting of your wife to assist with some of the camera work!
Thank you. It was a fun video to put together and also a great holiday
Cool stuff James. It's amazing how similar New Zealand is to parts of Scotland. I have some relatives who have been and had mentioned that.
There are some definite similarities.
You can understand why the LOTR was filmed there.
Wow! NZ is gorgeous! A bit like mixing New Foundland and British Columbia.
It is one of the most beautiful places I’ve been. And very easy to travel around.
Your Dad's place in Queensland is gorgeous too.
It is stunning. Amazing views.
That Glasshutte Original is one of my grails ... Used to be the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 1 ... but the GO is much more realistically attainable.
I prefer the GO too. There is something about it that really grabs my attention.
You sir, may be a bigger watch nerd than me. What a great video, and three great watches. I was waiting to see your dad, and where is Amy? I kept expecting her to pop up and say "A dingo stole my Rolex!" I live in Montana, and I thought we had some cool scenery. But wow, NZ is drop dead beautiful. I enjoyed this video James, thanks.
Thank you. Yes. A certified watch nerd. Hahahaha
New Zealand is a beautiful country. Amazing to visit.
That Rado looks fantastic! Congratulations.
I am really enjoying it.
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for WATCHing
Wow! Queenstown is gorgeous
Agree and I've been to the Alps often ... Looks stunning.
It is gorgeous
First time making a comment, have watched a lot of your videos. Really enjoyed this one. It was refreshing to see something different from all the watch channels I follow. Good stuff. I enjoy all your work.
Thank you. I really enjoyed putting this one together and plan to do more whenever I travel.
Bloody Hell, James stop showing people how beautiful our Mainland is! Everybody will want to come here.!
Seriously though., looks like a well deserved break. Riverton girl, huh? Quite a change of pace for your wife .
Hahahaha. It is a beautiful place.
She moved over her when she was 10 and had not been back.
Was nice for her to see it again.
The Rado is great.
I am really enjoying it
This was a great watch 👍
Thanks for WATCHing
Great watch vid. Thank you!
Thanks for WATCHing
Love the Rado❤
I’m really enjoying it
👍
👍
Loved it.
Thank you
Great video!
Thank you
Like the change of pace video
Thank you. It was fun to make something a bit different
Vacation sounds good
It was a great trip
Collins Street in Melbourne has all the big named watch brand stores. I just wish I had more money 😂
I was staying basically next to most of the stores. It was good spot to be.
Fine vid Bud!
Thank you. It was a fun holiday and interesting to make a different type of video
Next question for James, do I want a holiday with the wife…..or a luxury watch.
Why choose 😁. Both sound good to me
@@WATCHingJames Well, if you’re going out somewhere at least the Watch will be on time. 😝
Great video James - I'm curious on the patience of your wife as you drag her to all these watch stores? I know mine gets tired of me just talking about watches all the time! lol
I’m lucky to have such a supportive wife. Of the watches and my channel.
quality content!
Thank you
Haha good Stuff👍
Thanks for WATCHing
I always feel a bit conflicted about the Chris Ward Dartmouth.
On the one hand its a nicely executed watch.
On the other, having served 18 years as an RN Officer including around a year of training at BRNC, I actually cringe whenever I hear the word Dartmouth. Verging on PTSD. The place is basically the worst traditions of the 1863 Royal Navy embodied in a building designed as a school for 13 year old Victorian era boys and applied to 21 year old 21st century university graduates. With a massive amount of forced woke slapped on top just to really destroy combat efficacy.
I would love a well executed RN themed watch, perhaps taking after the CWC diver watches. But something without 'Dartmouth' in the name would be great. So that said I am not sure why anyone would buy this CW offering rather than a genuine CWC Royal Navy Diver Automatic...
Oh no. Thankfully there are many other watches to choose from.
Thanks for WATCHing
You know your wife has a wrist as well 😁 interesting video and a reason to start a second channel?
Hahahaha. She will definitely feature in future versions of this type of video.
I will never take anything else than a beater on my holidays
That would be a very sensible thing to do.
