Yessss! I have the Longines Record Heritage Chrono and agree it is one of the most beautiful chronograph executions in recent years. The pride and joy of my collection.
Congrats on the GS update! I also appreciate the love for the Longines Record Chrono. It's my first luxury watch and it really sings with the brown leather strap. Having said that, I quite enjoy that it has flown under the radar.
Congratulations on Grand Seiko. Well deserved (surprised it took you this long :)). I would have thought you would have the Tudor Chronograph on this list, based on the B01 movement and price point.
Congrats on becoming a GS AD, Teddy! Out of the 13, think my favourites were the Longines Record Chronograph and the Breitling Premier B15 Duograph. And is that the first time you've features a Hermès in these lists?
Thank you! And it was probably one of the few times I have mentioned Hermès on the channel. I liked what I have been seeing. Their H08 monopusher was one of my favorite unexpected pieces released this year.
Nice! Just what I needed to know when completing my perfect grey dial collection. Got a field watch, dive watch and looking for a chrono before I move on to a new dial color.
Been watching your videos since March of this year and love the videos, what I'm finding is you usually talk about the same brands over and over and never mention any of the other great brands out there. I would love to hear your input on Raymond Weil and other brands like this.
Great experience purchasing my Seiko Prospex SSC813 from Teddy Baldassarre. I’ll be visiting the site soon to check out the GS brand. Congrats on becoming an AD for GS!
Congrats on GS Teddy! 100% agree with the Longines Record Chornograph. I tried it last week, almost bought it but it looked too small for my wrist. It looks definitely high end compared to the price. I ended up buying IWC Portofino 42mm Chronograph, maybe that could also be in this list ;)
Wow, Teddy; Congratulations with Grand Seiko!!! Your trip to Japan and the clip on that was outstanding with Joe showing you around to the people and departments of their horological wonders. You have a very comprehensive portfolio for your store and should be extraordinarily proud. I've been following you for some time and joined your UA-cam group when it was about 3,000 subscribers. You are at the top of horology and now of the foremost in the world in knowledge and understanding of the industry!
I have and love the 39mm Seiko Speedtimer on a NATO strap. Excellent piece. I NEVER see/hear this piece talked about but I love my Phylida Chronograph Mechanical. It's an obvious Speedy homage but has a display caseback with the Seagull ST19 handwind mechanical. I LOVE this watch; it's a stunner, super accurate and unbelievable quality for $200. The bright white pencil hands and the recessed sub-dials scratch the itch for me as I'm saving for a real Speedy. Microbrands like Lorier use the ST19 for their mechanical watches and you've reviewed the Seagull 1963 many times. Maybe the Phylida is worth a look? There...I said it! Oh...and congrats on becoming a GS AD!
Hi Teddy, can we get a full review of the Longines Record Chornograph featured? Not much out there regarding it since it was released in this format. Ty!
Congrats on becoming a Grand Seiko AD!!! Amazing and beautiful pieces in that line but they are out of my reach for affordability and will never see one in my collection.
Agree on the Breitling Duograph! Also, not many people give people Breitling as a watchmaker credit for developing the first two-pusher wrist chronograph that the vast majority of modern chronos use
Congrats on being a GS AD! Your videos on Grand Seiko in the past really kickstarted my fascination with watches back in September after I purchased my first watch. Do you do deliveries overseas? Will def take a look at the watches after this vid!
9:10 agreed that it is very underrated, and almost no one talk about that watch. But Teddy, you know what other chronograph that are underrated by them? The Longines Tuxedo Chronograph, a breathtaking example of excellence being written off by their new releases each months, which I think applies to both of them that no one talk about them (record chrono and tuxedo chrono) enough.
Congratulations on the Grand Seiko partnership and thanks for showing off the JLC Polaris chronograph. My two favorite brands, and my next watch will either be that JLC or the Tentagraph.
As an owner of BOTH the BigEye and the Record Chronograph from Longines, seriously folks -- If you're even considering being on the fence, look closer, try one on if you can. You might not love both, but I'd be very surprised if you didn't love either!
Very well done! The class and neutrality of your reviews are so revealing of a league of your own that you are shaping through time. A true inspiration to say the least. Please keep going and thank you for being so careful in your details!
Congratulations on GS! Two others are Carl F. Bucherer annual calendar chronographs and the Montblanc series of chronographs. Especially their Nicholas Rieussec one.
Congrats on being named a GS AD. Well done. You have every right to be proud of your accomplishments. I recall your earlier, less polished efforts. Even though your production quality has improved, your passion for watches remains pure. Don't rest on your laurels, my friend!
I agree, on Longines. I admit when I started this hobby, I had no clue about them. Tried a cowowrker’s on, the Legend Diver. I realized how impressive they are. People should just get them on wrist and see in person. The specs they have are usually impressive too, for the movement
It's an ETA movement in a metal case. The guts of them aren't very unique. Can't see anything special w the line. Would rather have a Riviera or something with some sort of uniqueness. I think they look cool, though.
So many nice time pieces !!!! Longines, BREITLING, ZENITH ..... I am surprised that HERMES come back to chronograph . Thank you so much for this video and Congratulations for GRAND SEIKO approved dealer .
Breitling chrono is amazing. There is also one watch that I think deserves its spot in this video, the Tag Heuer Carrera chrono. You have done a video about it before. Absolutely a beautiful watch
What do you think of the Leica watches? I think they're way overpriced, but they look well made as far as I can tell. Would be interesting to get your perspective on a camera company getting into watches.
Some really great picks here! Glad to see GO, Breitling and JLC represented. GO also makes the Sixties Chronograph with grey dial and the Panogroph in rose gold. I heard the latter is being discontinued. I would love to get my hands on the stainless steel version that was discontinued years ago. Nothing quite like it.
Congratulations on becoming a GS dealer. Fantastic watches for the money. I have boxes of divers, sports, dress, but not really any chronographs. Never really had the appeal for me. That is changing a bit now. Started having fun collecting citizen bull head watches. Thanks for the great video
Wow, that Hermes looks amazing! At my budget I would never be able to afford something like that (even if one day I could, it would not be a Hermes) but it’s great to see a well known fashion brand not make something embarrassing to the watch community!
I've never been the biggest chronograph fan, but two pieces here seem to of changed my mind. The Hamilton, very nicely done indeed, nice little touch of 70s style, and the Glashutte. Absolutely mad about TV case watches. I have a Straumann TV case automatic from the late 1960s.
Congrats on Grand Seiko! Do you think you'll ever do orders to Europe? I wanted to support the channel when I bought my first mechanical watch last year, but unfortunately you didn't accept orders going to Denmark. Would love to be able to support the channel and work for my next buy 😊
Congrats, young man! Grand Seiko is a brand that epitomizes superb quality without being pretentious or elitist. They chose an excellent partner in you as an AD.
I considered both sizes on the Seiko Speedtimer and I ultimately decided on the 39mm. It’s a beautiful designed and it has some character that the 41mm is missing . If Seiko had theoretically made the exact same design for the 39mm and 41mm; I would have picked the 41mm. So yes, I think it has more to do with design than size .
Not always in agreement w/ the recs on this channel, BUT, you know it’s a good vid when you start searching each watch before the segment is over. Title nailed content perfectly on this one-I’ll take the Duograph please 👌
Congrats on becoming a GS dealer! So awesome! Regarding the Hanhart picture, the 417 ES in the photo is 42mm, the 417 ES 1954 is the 39mm and it has two lines of text on the bottom. Anyway.. minor stuff.. Btw. Fortis should be in here also. Keep making these videos!
IWC Pilot's Chronograph 41 in racing green on brown leather strap would be great see. I have it and love it and there is far too little coverage of it on UA-cam.
Great subject but you missed ones that you extremely familiar with and thats the Junghans Chronoscope and Telemeter and one you don’t mention much at all if ever is the Baumé & Mercier Capeland 😊😊😊
A long time ago, I thought. Why would I buy a name brand watch when I can get all the features we require in a name brand watch for less money in a microbrand. I love the 7750 movement. It is in some Omegas and many others. I bought a Xezo chronograph for 600 and it has 300m wr. plus an internal bezel as well as rotating external bezel. Tell me where I went wrong please.
Well done Teddy on being a GS dealer!
Our boy Ted has come a long way! 🥃🤙
Thank you, my friend! Couldn’t be happier to have them available.
@@TeddyBaldassarre👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍

Congratulations on Grand Seiko. Well deserved (surprised it took you this long :)). I would have thought you would have the Tudor Chronograph on this list, based on the B01 movement and price point.
That’s not “underrated”
Congrats on becoming a GS AD, Teddy!
Out of the 13, think my favourites were the Longines Record Chronograph and the Breitling Premier B15 Duograph. And is that the first time you've features a Hermès in these lists?

Congrats on Grand Seiko!!!! Really happy for you, may you continue to grow.....
congrats Teddy on finally being a GS dealer! a long time coming! i still remember your amazing video on how spring drive works.
Slightly obsessed by that Glashutte. Beautiful, easily combining dress smartness with sportiness. Grail watch that one.
Nice! Just what I needed to know when completing my perfect grey dial collection. Got a field watch, dive watch and looking for a chrono before I move on to a new dial color.
Huge congrats Teddy, huge well-deserved recognition that is long overdue!

Being an AD for GS must be a dream come true! Congratulations Teddy! I know where I'll be buying my first GS in the future.
Man you had some great picks in this list and so true! These particular models deserve more attention
Congrats on becoming a Grand Seiko AD!!! Amazing and beautiful pieces in that line but they are out of my reach for affordability and will never see one in my collection.
Congrats Teddy! what a news on GS!
Congrats, Teddy. Loved seeing the team, on this video.
Teddy and team, Congratulations on gaining GS and hope to hear in the future when you will be an Omega and Tudor AD. 😀
Agree on the Breitling Duograph! Also, not many people give people Breitling as a watchmaker credit for developing the first two-pusher wrist chronograph that the vast majority of modern chronos use
Excellent video, the Longines Heritage Tuxedo Chronograph is also worth looking into. Stunning piece.
Great video!
Worth to mention. Alpina Alpiner Chronograph. Union Glashutte Belisar. Farer Elvington 2 and Chrono Classic. Superb watches. 👌🏻

Excellent selection Mister Baldassarre.Very tasteful! Greetings from Madrid. Thanks very much.
Congratulations on becoming an AD for GS!

Bell&Ross V2-94 heritage! I absolutely adore this watch
And congratulations on being a GS dealer!
Congrats on becoming a GS dealer! The SBGA413 is definitely a grail watch of mine!

Love your channel with so many stellar watches! For me the AMZWATCH’ watch is my favorite. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.
Congratulations Teddy I think you retuned at least a little the favor with that really cool intro 👍🏽
Congratulations on becoming a Grand Seiko AD! Amazing!
Very beautiful presentation love the informations about the watches thanks Teddy for one more time…
Wonder if Longines would reissue the beautiful 13ZN & 30CH chronograph watches. Those movements are stunning!
Congratulations for you and Grand Seiko. Great move 🎉🎉
Nizar
Congrats on becoming a GS dealer! I know where I’ll buy my next GS from now!

Absolutely a beautiful watch
That Glashutte is beautiful. And congrats on the Grand Seiko auth!
Amazing work on the GS. Can't wait to get my first!

Amazing on the GS! Now I can't wait for a factory visit! that would be sick and epic.
Wow ... Fantastic news Teddy!!
Congratulations on GS Teddy!🥳
Congratulations Teddy! You deserve it! Bravo!

It would be great if you can get Christopher Ward too..

Teddy now a GS AD? That's crazy, congrats!
Congrats, young man! Grand Seiko is a brand that epitomizes superb quality without being pretentious or elitist. They chose an excellent partner in you as an AD.
Congratulations Teddy!! You should be very proud of the company you built! You are living the dream!
A congrats from a GS owner to a GS authorized dealer. You earned the right.
Can’t believe you didn’t include the Tissot 1938 telemeter! That aside, great vid.
Huge congratulations on becoming a Grand Seiko dealer!
Well done on becoming at GS AD 👏beautiful watches.
Teddy needs to come to Japan and give us a GS factory tour now. (I live in Japan now and would love to visit the factory lol).
TEDDY BALDASSARRE GRAND SEIKO LETS GOOO
Any and all watches that employ the Agenhor Agengraph - Moser, Singer - simply fantastic movement
Congratulations on the GS announcement!

Congratulations! If I can ever afford a GS, I will visit your store.
Congratulations Teddy!
Hope you hit 1,000,000!
IWC Pilot's Chronograph 41 in racing green on brown leather strap would be great see. I have it and love it and there is far too little coverage of it on UA-cam.
Great subject but you missed ones that you extremely familiar with and thats the Junghans Chronoscope and Telemeter and one you don’t mention much at all if ever is the Baumé & Mercier Capeland 😊😊😊
Congratulations on GS ! What is the entry price of the A. Lange & Sohne 1815 ?
Congrats on GS!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
A long time ago, I thought. Why would I buy a name brand watch when I can get all the features we require in a name brand watch for less money in a microbrand. I love the 7750 movement.

Heyyy grats on being both a Seiko and a Grand Seiko dealer
Look forward to you being a Credor AD
I love the content Teddy Bareass
Woohoo! That's quite an achievement, feeling very proud 🙂👍👍👍
I'd never seen the Hanhart before and I really like it. For me though, the Longines Record is one of the nicest chronos at any price.
Would love a Video about seikos new prospex automatic chronographs!
Have you ever hear of Bravur? Just acquire their Bravur Grand Tour Chronograph edition, 38mm, great buy !
I love much of the Grand Seiko line. Maybe suggest to them that they offer bracelets that exhibit quality equal to their watches.
