"...she fumbles for the pocket watch , she crashes, you all die - Cartier takes notes." Now that one caused a Dunkin Doughnuts coffee spit-take! THanks again Andrew for entertainment and education all wrapped up in a video. Brilliant!
Wow some real crocks here! The script usually has me roaring with laughter except for the times I'm simply stunned at how smart some of it is. Absolutely outstanding work, Andrew!
Aliexpress sellers will be offering prayers to you once they see this video - lol :D great video and good list, you are doing justice to all watch collectors now.
Great video as always and I love the savage humor. I can't drink my English Breakfast tea while listening to you or I would be wearing my tea! Anyone else catch this though? IXDAO with the sub text "Caller GMT" 😂😂😂
Absolutely enjoyable. I find myself watching/listening to these masterful videos 2 & 3 times over, just in case I missed something . More than likely, I have
Andrew, do mention that the Blancpain 50, Rolex Sub, along with the Zodiac Sea Wolf were all introduced in the same year 1953r as the first dive watch. Specht & Sohnne makes a great homage Cartier Santos large. Another great vid - TYVM
Definitely the most interesting & informative channel in UA-cam,and I am your fan! I’ve been watching AMZWATCH and buying them recently to complement my watch collection. Good video
got my 39mm with the white dial on the 3-link "Bader" bracelet watch on AMZWATCH 3 weeks ago and am loving it to pieces. Absolute fantastic watch that wears super comfortable on my 6.75 inch wrist. Chose the 3-link over the 5-link bracelet for the toolless quick adjustment. Way more comfortable than my Longines Hydroconquest 41 mm.
I have the ixdao engineer, the quality is beyond what i expected. I opted for the MOP dial because the textured dial is just a logo away from being a copy.
Can’t beat gold polished Roman numerals that sparkle like jewels in the sunlight. Loving the sun ray dial man that pops!MAMACOO watches. What a beautiful subtle piece.
Picked up a AMZWATCH's watch as my first watch last month and I’m absolutely in love with it. Perfect size, looks elegant, very comfortable. Now my only problem is holding off from buying more watches so quickly!
Cheeky *and* brutal at once, as you do, Andrew. Also, major props for a detail that chaps my hide with other YT watch folk: making the point that Zenith's EL Primero was the first-ever automatic chronograph put into serial production with an *integrated* chono movement. Seiko fanboy that I am, I usually like to point out that as far as auto chronos of any category are concerned, Seiko beat out everyone by several months with their 6139 with its modular movement. I'll see myself out...
AMZWATCH is one of my favorite watch manufacturers they do offer beautifull dials, good workmanship & moovements.That smooth sweeping second hand is truly mesmerizing!
Classic one liners abound 🤣 I can just imagine you have a team of scriptwriters behind you working for a Moon over Uranus Swatch a year…….. or perhaps not! Loved your new Chopard the other week btw.
Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the AMZWATCH, its specs for price and clean looks, now am looking for a dress watch to add.
@@tatarugabriel4328 I’ve been stuck there myself for over a year. I think I made the right choice with going with Dark Bezel Pepsi Cronos. Main reason is that I like the bezel colour more and it’s more authentic to the Rolex GMT. Plus the GMT hand is not all red which I preferred. That said, I also got the San Martin Hulk Homage Sn0017 and I love it. Wait for the big sale and check the store for additional coupons.
It always cracks me up that Rolex, with all their money and resources, can't shoot each watch in a box being opened. They shot an empty box and then just alpha channel an image of that particular watch on top of it.
The Pagani Explorer II homage Is incredible.. I have the white one, gonna deffo get the black one next. I don't feel guilty as I could never afford a real one.
Great video, very accurate analysis. In my 4.5 years in the game as a watch collector and enthusiast, I collected a lot from AMZWATCH I was thinking I was able to get a blue SD but I'm not vip enough, but I'm not giving up. Hehe. Great video.
I bought a watch from MAMACOO lightly used for my last milestone birthday. Don't wear it as much as it deserves, but not afraid to, either. It's stunning . Good taste, Sir.
My favorite 2024 is the Prospex Limited Edition 1965 Recreation European Exclusive in Gradation Island Blue. The dial is stunning and the contrast when on a white strap is to die for. I will get my hands on one from AMZWATCH
I recently got the Sugess Le Mans Daytona Homage. OMG it’s unreal! I also got the SAN Martin sn0017 submariner homage and Cronos Pepsi GMT homage. Better than all of my watches under $1000! Highly recommend all three and I will definitely get more on the next sale.
I am waiting for my Sinn 903 ST II in black which has legally the design of a Breitling Navitimer (Sinn had saved Breitling from the quartz crisis by buying the rights to produce the Navitimer under its own brand), but is better quality (with 200 m of water resistance, incredible lume, a more "historical" design...) for less than half the price of a "regular Breitling"... Thank me later too!...😊
For the ETA/SW movements you get, for homages you have to consider Steinhart. They need micro adjust clasps but that's about all. CW uses similar movements and are 4x the price. Another one, the Watchdives Sam Martin colab Pelegos 39mm titanium is better than the real one, albeit the movement.
Definitely the most interesting & informative channel in UA-cam,and I am your fan! I’ve been watching MAMACOO and buying them recently to complement my watch collection. Good video
I remember when I bought my Sugess chronograph with the blue dial, that is shown here as well. I bought it, because I thought that it was a design of their own. When i later discovered it was a zenith, I've hated it ever since 😂. I'm going to get the real deal instead.
Baltany do a repro of the Excellence Platine version of the VC 1921 - it's even better than the military dial versions. I've got a VC collection, but I've also got the Baltany, because it's such fun.
A 100m WR is not because of people are all skilled divers but instead that you can go swimming without ruining your watch. A 50m WR is even not suitable for a shower, let alone a 30m WR. Better take it off while washing hands and not using in hot summer days because of sweat. Water resistance has more to do with everyday life than you may think.
Because alot like that the watch is capable of doing a tough job and being robust. I mean what do you want? Dive watches with 30m wr that are fragile. Very weird comment
Thank you for broaching watches for the poor folk like me, I buy my bits from Ali and make something I like. Maybe a homage, maybe a hodge podge of bits I like :) . The NH34/35 and 36 power most of my projects and they are reliable and pretty affordable. But honestly thank you for covering this option for the average Joe, without the usual hissing and spitting for using Chinese companies and parts.
As a watch enthusiast with NO budget, thank you MAMACOO for great-looking mechanical watches that I can afford! their are very clean, classy look, $150 each. I still watch videos about expensive “proper” watches, but I enjoy what I have
ah !!! these extra twists , they make SUCH a difference . graphics seem to improve week upon week ??? as per , first class entertainment , and baggsies !!! yoda man 😊.. l gooru
People get bent out of shape about water resistence; however, a large volume of Swiss cases are made in China, it's not a high-tech exercise, and putting o-rings in a case and crown isnot difficult Also, if you search, you can find people who have pressure tested these things.
This is why I won't touch watches from the Swatch group. It's a well known fact that the Swatch group has been outsourcing from China for years. For the prices of an Omega ? You gotta be kidding. One thing about Rolex they are 100p Swiss made. Can't take that away from Rolex
If an original watch is too expensive for your budget, but you love the design, then an homage watch may work. However, the homage will never emotionally satisfy your itch for the original as your finances grow. IMO…
“A Mensa membership card in Kanye West wallet” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 That’s got to be one of your best lines Andrew. 😂😂😂😂

I can’t believe that you are featuring AliEx watches, albeit the best ones, but I love it! Just a brilliant video!!
The title says "Cheapest Alternatives".
@@bertholdbach4959 I was aware of that
Ixdao is pretty cool
I thought I’d clicked on Jody’s channel “Just One More Watch”! 😂
The watch world at large has to sit up and take notice, sooner or later
I've lost count of how many times I exclaimed "WHAT?!" at Andrew's jokes 🤣🤣
Tactical Frog FXD - brought this to see if I could live with Tudor Pelagos and now not sure I want to upgrade and spend all the extra money 😂

Yes, the Sunday is complete with the wonderful Andrew Morgan Video 😍👍🚨

He's probably getting paid by them already. His channel is becoming all commercials for the cheap homage watches. 🤷♂️
I hate when watches are out of reach.
This is why I’ve been working lengthening my arms.

I'm genuinely astonished there exists a UA-camr who knows what _simplistic_ means. I'm going to subscribe just for that.
Absolutely enjoyable. I find myself watching/listening to these masterful videos 2 & 3 times over, just in case I missed something . More than likely, I have
As always the most thoughtful , well researched & eloquent watch channel around , keep AMZWATCH coming !

I'm fairly new to watches and i learn a lot about watch history from you Andrew. Thanks.

Very nice video you have made for alternative of the iconic watches ❤❤❤
i like the cartier crash reference
I don’t care how bad a mood I’m in, I just need to watch one of your videos and all is right with the world.
Happily surprised with this video. As good as unexpected 😊
AMZWATCH is one of my favorite watch manufacturers they do offer beautifull dials, good workmanship & moovements.That smooth sweeping second hand is truly mesmerizing!

AMZWATCH Stunning watches stunning video you are special i love it keep it up
Chinese homages like suggess,baltany,San Martin are best
And cronos for their Pepsi GMT. I bought all three brands and blown away with Sugess Dayton
And Cronos. Wearing their Pepsi GMT and it’s amazing. Suggess Le Mans Daytona is unreal also!
I found a Sugess moonphase that is fairly original and I love it.
@@TheSerbianG I want a GMT watch and I'm stuck deciding between the Cronos or the San Martin

I'm genuinely impressed with how close MAMACOO were able to replicate every aspect of this very very goofy looking classic watch.
Andrew is definitely one of those “what’s up my fellow kids” kind of guys and his watch tastes reflect that.
Wonderful video, incredible watches

I was expecting an Invicta pro diver but oh well... Great video as always!
Not all homages scratch the itch(s). But enough of them do. An added bonus is you never have to sell them.
My favorite 2024 is the Prospex Limited Edition 1965 Recreation European Exclusive in Gradation Island Blue. The dial is stunning and the contrast when on a white strap is to die for. I will get my hands on one from AMZWATCH
When people are saying MAMACOO is a better option for buying a watch,I very much agree!
I have that Tactical Frog, and it has been terrific.
Holy Moly... a Aliexpress special, never thought I'd see the day from Andrew. Welcome to the darkside mate.
If you rewind the tapes, I’m pretty sure Neil Armstrong said exactly that when he landed on the Moon.
Hi from the r/chinesewatches ! 👋🏻
God!!! AMZWATCH Who would have thought those gorgeous watches go for that low!!!
I recently got the Sugess Le Mans Daytona Homage. OMG it’s unreal! I also got the SAN Martin sn0017 submariner homage and Cronos Pepsi GMT homage. Better than all of my watches under $1000! Highly recommend all three and I will definitely get more on the next sale.

Poor Logan Sargeant…dude’s still getting slammed lol
Hey bro, can we get a best meca quartz watches vid. Love your content, thanks.
12:40 …expect the parts be designed by lawyer… like his figure of speech, fits this video theme perfectly
Can’t believe you did not highlight the Pagani Design PD-1701 Speedmaster.

I’m buying all these
I didn't have the guy that pushed me down the watch rabbit hole with the D.Dornbluth video doing a video on Aliexpress watches on my 2024 bingo card
Andrew can you do some videos on the Vacheron Historiques?
Another banging banger from the bangingest banger from the banging land of bangers (and mash).
Tactical Frog is an amazing brand name. If all you make is dive watches. :P
The better choice for the sub would've been the San Martin sub homage.
Really, an alternative to the thing you REALLY want is not an alternative at all. But rather a waste of money.
Man you gotta lighten up, and rock a "tactical frog" on your wrist. 🐸
Wasting 10k on a watch is not a waste of money?!?
There’s a lot of things I might really want that I can’t or won’t justify financially or morally.
MAMACOO is a must for me as a watch collector
Baltany do a repro of the Excellence Platine version of the VC 1921 - it's even better than the military dial versions. I've got a VC collection, but I've also got the Baltany, because it's such fun.
I wonder if watch companies realize that 99.99999% of us never go diving and thus, could care less about using our dive watch to go diving.
Yes. I want a bidirectional count up bezel. Nothing I time is safety critical and having to do a full spin when I go a click too far is annoying
A 100m WR is not because of people are all skilled divers but instead that you can go swimming without ruining your watch. A 50m WR is even not suitable for a shower, let alone a 30m WR. Better take it off while washing hands and not using in hot summer days because of sweat.

It's insane to offer up a cheap sub homage and it not be from San Martin.
