Can I just say, you are officially my fav watch youtube channel?! You guys have such a good thing going on right now! So dang entertaining
Britney you give them a run for their money. You da best
Exactly! Loving this. So funny, easy to watch and just plain crazy.
How about the Timeless watch channel !
@@juniorjohnson5961 in my top 3 for sure
@@juniorjohnson5961 funny because TWC, Gringa, and the boyz are my go to. I think we all just have a similar sense of humor. As well as taste, obviously.
The banter has gotten so good, consistently cracking me up. Who thought I’d be saying that about watch videos?

I'm with Christian - this year I bought what I would consider my first luxury watch (Hamilton Interstellar) and it too was to celebrate a successful year, and also to signify entering a new stage of my life.
There's something special about wearing a watch that reminds you of good times

Yeah, most people don't notice most watches. The only 2 watches in my collection that have gotten noticed from random folks are my 2020 Spaceview and my Tissot T-Complication. They're big, have a lot of wrist presence, and definitely stand out. Nobody ACTUALLY notices a Rolex or anything else unless they're a watch geek, and even then it's actually really hard to identify a watch in the wild.

I asked my wife to buy me a watch for our 1 year anniversary. I think this should be a common practice as men typically have to buy an expensive engagement ring and get nothing in return. It's 2021 not the 1900s

my wife bought me a wooden watch for our 5th year anniversary....i'll be buying my own watches from now on.....
I particularly love the discussion at 15:00. Made this mistake myself only to learn the hard way that nobody know or cares what brand(s) you wear. No one gives a thought about the name on your watch dial. What brand of shoes you wear. Anything about a woman’s handbag. Etc. It will only lead to frustration if you throw down big money to buy a Rolex, Patek, AP, etc if you think others will be impressed. It will NEVER happen.

I think the Breitling was alright on your wrist. I have a 16.5cm wrist but it's more flat rather than round so fortunately my 45.5mm Planet Ocean Chronograph still somehow works on it. I bought it in Hong Kong when I lived in Asia and it's connected with lots of nice memories. It is mine and I will never let it go.
5: Thinking you can snipe an 'overlooked/underated' auction watch for cheap.
6: Speculating about which watch you want to get will be "The Best Investment" 🤦
7: Thinking 'In-House' is always better. 🧐
5 you certainly can do but you have to get lucky. It doesn't happen often but when it does it's absolutely sweet.
Love your videos and the chemistry you guys have. Thank you!

I love that Patek, and how it doesn't matter that almost nobody notices what an extraordinary watch it is. You get to enjoy it your self as something like a mini-museum on your wrist of the highest level watch-making craftsmanship and materials can attain. I'll take that over compliments any day.

Christian really hit home wit the idea of buying a watch during a monumental time and that moment for me is, Now! Lol
As a jersey dude I'd like to get in contact 🤳
I started out making the mistake of Swiss or Bust. Decided to get back into watches, and only wanted Swiss mechanical. Got one. Then I got an Orient and a Seiko from Japan and a Vostok from Russia, and looking for a German watch now, and loving Zelos, which is from Singapore. Once I started looking, I realized the country of origin isn't always important.

That scene and goodwill hunting🤣 I love that movie so much
Totally agree with the relationship with the watch even if you don’t wear it often. I have a 1961 Rolex OP in 14qt gold. It was the first “high end” watch I purchased. I’ve worn it to two of my best friends weddings. I would never sell that watch, it holds such a special place in my heart. Your relationship with a watch means so much more than just owning the watch.

Just discovered your channel, very enjoyable, well done. Good advice to buy what you like and don’t be persuaded that watches are an ‘investment’, the market will change at some point and you will need to like your collection whatever arbitrary value is placed on it. At least when the speculators leave the market, enthusiasts can benefit once again.

That was a good video. Make me another.
Hahahaha I see what you did there
Excellent first tip. I'm selling my second Speedy, because I love that thing, but on my wrist it just doesn't work! My most comfortable watch is my little Casio f91w. So now I'm saving for the Explorer 36... much better fit. Good vid guys

Does anyone know what size reverso Micheal is wearing in this vid ? Great as always guys. My favorite parts are the back and forth banter, you guys genuinely make me laugh.
Looks like the large one (47 x 28mm - 3848422). The same one is also available in a medium size (42 x 26mm - 2458422).
Could watch you two goofin and chatting about watches all day. I just love the format of your guys’ videos, solid content and commentary between two hilarious friends. Subscribed.

Such a simple, but accurate quote. You may love a watch, but do you love the watch on the wrist or in your life (paraphrasing). It’s so true though. It’s why online purchases are so dangerous if you never tried the watch on, or physically can’t like with some micro brands.
I just ordered the Santos de Cartier medium two-tone watch. It’s going to be my first luxury watch in my collection!

Friends, you are so correct on your first. I have a 7.25 wrist and purchased a Longines Big Eye because abargain priced beautiful chrono. Wore it twice, felt like a brick on my wrist. That's why I will never consider Tudor. Traded the Big Eye for a Carrera and love it.

I love all my four manly tool watches. a Diver,GMT,Chronograph & Field.
Hey Guys! Awesome video as always. Great point about the Chronomat, I have the older 39mm version from Seinfeld, which is a perfect fit.
I wish Omega and Breitling would stop making these gargantuan sport watches. I believe the size and thickness of both brands sport models have prevented both companies from eating up, to a greater extent, the available market share Rolex is leaving through unavailability. If you guys are working with Omega, and if it feels right and appropriate, please petition them to make some smaller and thinner models of their sport watches.

For small wrists, the Breitling Chronomat works very well with a rubber strap, looks much smaller than the bracelet

The only thing that kills the Chronomat for me is the date window cutting into the sub dial. I can't stand when they do that 😒 it just looks cheap. Either put it somewhere else or don't put the date and alot brand's are guilty of this. Imop chronographs don't need a date window the dial is already busy enough

I am going to be honest here and say it; most of the watches today are too big! I keep saying it, when you create a watch with a 43mm diameter, what do you expect the lug to lug to be? This is the issue, the diameter sets the watch for failure.
I keep hearing that N.America is a big market for swiss watches, hence why the watches are large but you go online and all the wrist shots say the opposite.

I'm assuming the Reverso isn't yours considering the price tag is still on :)
They have a partnership with London Jewelers. As you can tell they're shooting on location instead of their studio

I have the same problem with all the modern Tudor watches, they look amazing and are built really well but for some reason when I buy them I don't use them...
This is the reason why I don’t buy them. I just can’t get behind the brand
That Reverso really suits Michael. Sorry for your bank account but you gotta buy it.

Nearly EVERY watch I own was obtained to celebrate or mark a significant occasion in my life. My next purchase will be when my Dad passes.
Hey, that’s morbid as hell.
People notice ur watch and jeans bros. It’s nyc. New Yorkers are too cool to acknowledge ur cool shit.
personally I think that Chronomat fits your wrist perfectly. I have the same one in copper and wrists probably around the same size. fits so comfortably it's amazing
I think you guys need more hair gel!

My problem with Grand Seiko is they're boring. I know they are great watches but can't get over the ho hum. I have two watches everyone hates, JLC Reverso Squadra Hometime and Glasutte Original Sport Evolution Pano Date. I have big wrists and love both of these. As a matter of fact, I have still have every watch I originally purchased. To each his own.
I love the Reverso, GSs and Glashutte. A GS has so much to offer, and don't know which model you are referring too, but in comparison with a basic CNC guilloché dial, white, basic hands and case, a GS has so much more to offer. IMO it's not boring at all, in the contrary, it has so much to give and discuss about.
@@TheJonCruise My problem has always been the case. Almost Rolex looking. I'm not saying they're not great watches, just that they seem too derivative.
*Boring to you. Which is why you absolutely shouldn’t own one. I find the GS ‘White Birch’ utterly beautiful (especially the dial) and so far from boring and that’s why I bought one for myself.
@@Madmanmarque did you see the GS44? ROLEX has nothing like that, and the finishing is way above the simple case of the Rolex.
No one compliments your watches, but I guarantee they see it. For better or worse, people are conditioned to notice expensive watch brands. When I wear some of my pieces, I see people looking out of the corner of my eye. Thats not why I buy my watches, but it definitely feels good!

The whole meet up thing is true. I went to Bal Harbor in Miami with my Omega Seamaster 300m and I might as well have been wearing a Swatch Watch. Everyone had Patek Philippe, Richard Mille watches.
Main thing is that you like it. I couldn't justify over 5k for a watch no matter how much I make.
Better wear an Omega than a Richard Mille.
