    I have seen this video at least 8 to 10 times on different occasions, every time I watch it, I enjoy the versatile and wonderful collection Mr. Alan Maleh has, the colors the aesthetics, everything about this collection is awesome.

    This is my favorite collection in the series and the guy I'd probably most enjoy a beer with. That blazer is pretty great.

  • @tedis0n956
    @tedis0n956 2 роки тому +2

    I've watched almost all the episodes of talking watches now, and this is by far my favorite. His collection is truly diverse, incorporates very interesting aesthetic elements, and focuses on pieces that are genuinely accessible to a lot of people. Please, more like this!

    I genuinely love the fact that he is actually wearing his watches !!! U can se scratches on the glass on the case, u can see passion! It’s not all about the idea of owning a watch but also WEARING IT living with it

  • @5schavez
    @5schavez 9 років тому +14

    This episode is by far my favorite I've seen. I like his taste. I'm an aesthetics person as well so I would say we have somewhat the same kind of taste. I liked his collection very much. The roulette dial really stood out to me!

  • @jonbower8053
    @jonbower8053 8 років тому +6

    For me, this collection was all about the enjoyment of wearing a watch every day. A beach watch, an outdoor watch, something hipster cool vintage and all with eye catching style.

  • @jarrodgill7576
    @jarrodgill7576 9 років тому +84

    Another interesting instalment. As valid as any other. He's a watch nut that collects what he likes. End of story. I enjoyed it.

    I think it's funny when they're talking about the bubble back, Alan says, maybe wearing 'purple sweater, white shirt, army green pants', switch the pants to jacket and it is exactly what Ben is wearing. :P

    @maksuree 10 років тому +21

    "you can have style under a thousand dollars"
    this is a fucking surprise to some people?
    Seiko SARB, Melbourne Flinders, Orient Mako XL orange, Cobra De Calibre, Victorinox, Vostok, Sea-Gull, the list goes on and on and on and on... and only 2 of those were over 400 USD

    • @ryanli1644
      @ryanli1644 10 років тому +1

      Honestly. Yeah. I'm sure there are those who enter the hobby not knowing exactly what their doing. Some may not understand movement finishing and the whole "90% of the price goes into the last 10%" so it's an important point to make.

    • @normellison5347
      @normellison5347 10 років тому +3

      Collectors love obscure watches to show they are unique individuals. God forbid you wear a Victorinox.

    • @1Reddd
      @1Reddd 10 років тому +1

      I own a very elegant yet somewhat cheap Fossil. People still love to look at it, they tell me i'm a fool for wearing that in public because of the fear that it would be stolen. Although i only paid $200 for it. Plus it gives of many beautiful reflections which also catches people's eye.
      Point being, you don't have to pay for a Rolex, Patek, or a Audemars Piguet to get attention.

    • @iaperina306
      @iaperina306 10 років тому

      OfficialEpic222 I completely agree, i own a fossil and a seiko and people notice them and ask about them, always questioning the necessity of something that they think is expensive.

  • @matts9484
    @matts9484 8 років тому +126

    All these watches were/are for sale on his magazine website lol

    • @JudoDogMD
      @JudoDogMD 8 років тому +46

      exactly, which made this video seem disingenuous to me. it's basically a sales pitch.

    • @w4r7
      @w4r7 8 років тому +14

      Many watch collectors also have the habit of "flipping" pieces to fund for and try new watches.

    • @harrisonguaranteetv5574
      @harrisonguaranteetv5574 8 років тому +50

      wow you are right, literally every single one of these watches is for sale on this guys site. I understand that many collectors flip to gather funds for a new purchase, but don't come on talking watches and say you have a connection to each and every watch. I entirely doubt the validity of his stories now. very surprised to see this happen actually, I know Ben is very genuine and I don't think he would be ok with this, I doubt he knew. because of this it is my least favorite episode.

    • @indiefruit
      @indiefruit 6 років тому +13

      This is a sales pitch.
      "Lovely sky blue" (faded af)
      "Details on the bezel" (scratches on the bezel)

    • @gingeralejones7340
      @gingeralejones7340 5 років тому +1

      And if you had bought that Certina you'd have a great ROI. Just saw one for sale for 3500. Also, almost every watch I've bought and sold I had a connection with, all I read here is people that don't want to spend a premium to not have to scour online for months or years even to find something special.

  • @Justmyopinionlol
    @Justmyopinionlol 10 років тому +9

    random people at my firm still look down on me for wearing a grand seiko spring drive...they didn't know it costs more than many swiss watches. now I need lexus LFA car to complement my watch.

  • @michaelperry2018
    @michaelperry2018 9 років тому +10

    i like that he took the alternative approach to collecting watches. his watch collection shows his unique style. some are cheaper and others are not. he was drawn to them all the same. the oriosa is a beautiful piece. i just looked up a similar one black and bronze. it might be mine if i get to it in time.

  • @takutatanga
    @takutatanga 10 років тому +2

    It's taken me a while to understand what Mr Maleh is all about, but I think I get him now. And although his aesthetics are not for everyone, he offers a compelling perspective on watches.

    • @1989osu
      @1989osu 2 роки тому

      Yeah bro, me too, Mr. Maleh is all about that $$$ as all of these watches were (and maybe still are) posted for sale on his website.

    I think that Mr. Alan Maleh has got some great colection of time peaces that makes the jaw slide down. I like each and every one of the watches, and it seems that he is in to colorfull watches. I wish I could have such a colection of my own. Respect.

      do you mean the Heuer? This was before the Tag part showed up and ruined the name of the brand. I'm not surprised he doesn't have any Tags in his collection

    ''Im purely aesthetics driven, thats why I have some watches here that are under a 1000 dollars!''.... as I weep into my Ramen.

  • @michaelhoward4520
    @michaelhoward4520 9 років тому +2

    Great taste and he makes no apologies for buying on his personal taste as opposed to some that don't seem to have such a passion. The others seem to be investment oriented, not true watch lovers. He buys based on a love for the beauty. He mentions a personal connection and the fun of having watches he loves.

  •  8 років тому +22

    What amazing taste..

  • @SpydieFan
    @SpydieFan 10 років тому +34

    Cool video, however, it's not really his collection though, but merely the products he sells
    In his web store.
    And even then, the watches are very overpriced.

    In the beginning, the interviewer states how Alan Maleh even has watches under a $1000 dollars in his collection and wears them all, as if that's so magnanimous of him. What is it with these interviews where you have to wear an expensive watch or it just doesn't fly . . . ?

    Great Video! It's awesome to see that he owns hundred dollar watches and more expensive pieces as well. This is what it's about, what YOU want to collect. I own a few vintage watches, paid anywhere from $100-$180 and I feel like a million bucks when I wear them. Someday average joe me can hopefully get a hold of a nice Speedmaster or Roley.

    I don't know how seriously I can take a guy when he groups lange with the other 'high end swiss watches'. Also, oddly enough, he speaks about these watches as though they are part of his private collection yet most of them are for sale on his website.(quite overpriced may I add). Don't get me wrong I enjoyed almost all the other talking watches episodes. They were great. This one, not so much. It just seemed like one big ad for his website and if you actually visit his website and click timepieces you'll see what I mean.

    @ph1lo 10 років тому +3

    I know that swiss watches are the finest quality and style etc.. But i personally prefer Japanese, Chinese (and around that region) watches. Watches like Citizen, Casio and Seiko are great to me and they have a massive range of style (from rugged military, to elegant and everything in between) with features like atomic (radio controlled) watches that are the most accurate watches in the world. So if you want to collect a few watches and appreciate good quality and accurate timepieces then these are great. Even for the rich people like this guy.
