Congrats Christian, loved this video. Fantastic collection. Here's to another 1000 videos!
Best regards,
TGV
P.s. That Santos!!! OMG Pure class.
Youre the man, TGV!!!
The Urban Gentry has
I read this in your voice. lol
TGV and T&H. My two most favourite UA-cam channels 😍 More power to the both of you, and many, many more videos to come! You are a catalyst in this watch industry, and you fuel so many watch passions. Salute!👏👏👏
Carlos Atkins I so fucken agree
My dad's graduation gift to me was a 30mm vintage Cartier that he'd received as a wedding present - and I don't wear it nearly enough. You, sir, have convinced me to put it on my wrist again at the next available opportunity.
A person who owns a swatch and is proud of it = 1 pt.
A person who owns a black on black omega seamaster or a black rolex submariner and considers his watch collection to be unique or different = 0 pts.
I love it when you go on tangents. It's when you thrive!
Thanks so much for that - it means alot!!
Dude, don't stop anything you're doing. You relate with the audience like myself in ways I'm sure plenty of people can agree on. Cool people with a sick business and a passion behind it will drive success. Thanks for sharing your collection and mind set behind it. Awesome episode.
Thank you SO much for your time, Alejandro!! It means the world to me that you, and the rest of our fans, care to follow along!
Congratulations on your 100th video! I enjoyed seeing your collection and hearing about your personal watch collecting philosophy.
Congrats on 100! Such a refreshing, classic take on watches and your collection in a modern world of really large pieces.
Thanks so much for watching, man!
I love how you say you don't wanna pick a favorite but then go to explain how the date just is your favorite
Enjoyed it Christian. Love hearing someone young going for it and sharing their passion.
Boooom! 100 Eps! Congratulations on the milestone. Keep em coming. T&H constantly producing quality content.
Can hardly believe it!! Thanks so much for following!
Congrats on 100th episode Christian! I wish you many more and continuous success! Bravo!
Thanks so much, Mike!!!
I have only one watch in my collection right now: tudor black bay 36mm black. great video.
Terrific watch!! Thanks so much for watching!
2 watches on my 5-month collection so far: Seiko 5 SRP667K1 and Casio Edifice EFR-544DY 1A2Y. Looking forward to get a Sinn or Hamilton for a reasonable price, or even another diver Seiko. Great collection and a great video!
Great video Christian I'm sure many people thought you would have a large collection but I knew that a watch would have to mean so much to become personal to you. Keep going love the Channel
Happy 100! Here's to the next 100. Great to finally see your personal collection.
Thanks so muhc for watching, Michael!
Date window placement:
Swatch: 1 point, Patek: 0 points
Bhahahah bastards
Nice work Christian. That Cartier does indeed suit your wrist - excellent!
So glad you enjoyed, Neill!
Great collection Christian.
After a shipping SNAFU that was in no way the fault of Christian or Theo & Harris, I finally have the JLC that Christian sold. It looks smaller than I was expecting, but I'm loving it.
Ralph, so sorry about the issue again! I'm glad youre enjoying it - it's the BEST example of that watch on the market!!
Congratulations on making it to the 100! I've enjoyed the 'ride' all the way. I much appreciate you being bold, sincere and passionate in your videos. Keep it up!
So kind of you, Petro - have a great night!
Well worth the wait! That's a rather beautiful collection. I really dig that Cartier Tank. I'm a big fan of smaller watches (for many of the same reasons you have listed). My Favre Leuba Sea King is the same size. Smaller watches feel great on the wrist. Congrats on 100! Looking forward to the next 100!
Thank you Christian. This was awesome and an important mile stone for T&H! Keep it coming.
Youre the man, Jacob!!
kinda off topic but can i know what is your eyepiece/glass.. broke mine a while ago and need something to replace with.
wow at 19 you already bought your rolex.. it takes me my 35th year to own an omega spacewatch.. and first was a gshock 3229 piece which was my dads.
Congrats on 100 and thanks for showing us the collection! I think you get a better overall picture with a small watch. I mean you get to see the watch and strap better because its a flatter, more complete, picture. But that's just my opinion.
Damn, rockin a blue datejust at 17.
Hahha I knew it was THE watch!
Rockin a 16803 two tone sub at 18. Gift from fiance.
Well rockin a 114060 no date sub at 17
Akuma's RSNL my son has a datejust 41 at 16 only
2016 Air King at 15
I love that you still own that Swatch watch. I also still have my Ruhla I got for my first communion, as well as the first watch I ever bought with my own money (a quartz Tissot), my uncle's Seamaster quartz and my grandfather's Rodania. Modest as they are, they're the only 4 watches I'll never sell.
That was well worth the wait. Thanks for sharing your collection with us.
Thanks so much, man!! It was a ton of fun!
Nice collection! I really like your selfawareness about what style of watches you truly like. I think it is indeed very important to only buy watches you really love! Congrats and keep going
Thanks so much, Jakob!!
Great video Christian, and that Cartier is incredible.
It's cool listening to you talk about your philosophy and appreciate your thoughts on sizing. As for me, until I tried on the last two divers I purchased, I never thought I'd wear anything over 40mm, let alone a PAM 312. It's a beast but I'm enamored with it. Goes back to elementary school, when I saw a picture of one from WW II, and trying it on brought back those emotions I remember when I saw that really cool picture.
Great video and advice! Your collection is amazing! Congratulations on your 100th! Looking forward to the next 100!
Thank you so much - I couldnt tell ya how much appreciate it!!
Really great vid mate. Enjoyed hearing the story behind each purchase.
Thanks so much, man!!
Another great video, Christian! Love your channel and totally agree with you about watch sizes.
Hi Christian:
You nailed No. 100, kudos to T&H. Love your stories behind the watch collection which drive the association on wrist. Keep up the good work young lad. Best wishes!

Great video man, your channel is growing on me, keep it up!
Awesome video dude! Btw on tje website, are the watches on the watchshop tab all you have because when i went on archive, it didn't show me the proce for any of the watchs
Exactly. The archives are watches that have already been sold! Thanks so much for watching!!

Congrats on #100!! Keep up the good work, cant wait for the next 100!!!!
Big congratulations to you and your team for reaching 100!!!! Keep up the great work. Love the vids.
Love n support from Toronto, Canada BOOM👊🏼
Thanks so much, man!! it's means the world!!
Congrats bro!! Loving the stuff with your Pops as well!!
Love the fact you still have your first watch, wish I still did.
Thanks so much for watching, man!
Absolutely love this video! Your Cartier Santos surely is to die for!
Thanks so much!!
Hi Christian. I too like the Cartier Santos Dumont however they all are listed as Ladies watches as far as vintage is concerned. Did you ignore this or was there a certain size that you searched for?
Great question. I beleive they were actually produced in 3 sizes but I'm not sure of the dimensions. This example was a mans model - the female models were super small at around 23mm!
Theo and Harris That is what I was thinking. It seems in the vintage market the smallest 23 mm I believe are what are offered. I am guessing that is what their best seller was at the time. The tank is another one I am looking at.
Great video. Your passion for watches and self-style is inspiring.
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch, Andy!!
Congrats on your 100th asktnh, great video.
Thanks so much, James!
Congratulations, always great to be part of the watch community. Cheers
Thanks so much, watch geek!!
Great vid, awesome collection and congrats to the 100th episode!
Thank you, Andres!!
Congrats on 100 eps. Collection kick ass! 👍🏽👊🏽
Thanks so much!
like you theo I just love love love love small watches maybe because I grew up wearing a Casio f 91-w but probably the reason I like small watches because 1. it's classy and sophisticated 2.small watches last longer....less surface area.....you bump it into things less.....hence its last longer 3. as it is long lasting....I mean part of why we love watches is that it's supposed to outlast us this piece o micro mechanical art.....and these watches will look good on me weather I am 21 or 81. Yups and I love your watch talk.
Can someone tell me the name of the third "graduating" watches. English is not my native language that's why I couldn't catch it... Excuse me for such a complications.
Congrats to the 100's
Love your taste and understand your gravitation towards non masculine pieces. Keep it up
thanks so much for watching, Alec!
The Cartier Santos is absolutely incredible.
That Cratier looks amazing on your wrist. Man, finding the right watch for yourself is a lot harder than I thought.
So hard!!
Please tell me, how did you buy a Rolex at 17? I'm 16 and I need to know!
Skinematic Films Buy vintage ( A secondary market offers huge discounts), and save your money for a few months from a part time job. It's not easy, but definitely possible and you'll feel so accomplished because you worked your a$$ off for it
Save up and don't get tempted with buying something else that can be obtained right now. Buy some Seikos and orients if you want some variety until you get the Rolex, but don't buy that Tudor or omega or Breitling. Buying one of those means you'll blow 2000-4000$ and you'll start from scratch for the Rolex (depending on which model you want).
It’s harder now as Rolex prices have gone through the roof and this raises the prices of older ones too.
20 years back you could get a new 11634 datejust for £2350 in the uk. Now they’re about £8000! You could get a pre owned vintage back then for £800-1200 easily but now that’s unlikely.
Having said that, if it’s your passion as it is mine then it’s a priority and I put watches above cars and other things. I have to have a nice watch. 😁
His mother bought it
@@MrPeteragent lad should have been given a slap to shut his yap
congrats on 100!!!. I have loved them all.
Thanks so much for following along!
Great collection. Very thoughtful. Thank you.
Hello Christian, first Video I write a comment because I think you are great guy. I like your attitude and the way you think about watches. Very real and honest. Do not worry about people telling you are talking fast, I mean yes you do, but that is just you, and everything is alright with that ;). Keep going, great channel. Btw. nice watches, especially the Cartier. Greetings, Alex
Congrats on 100 eps! Liking the way you think, especially at 21! Subbed!
I'm so glad you enjoyed!!
I think you have a really classy collection. Talk a lot of sense too. Good vid.
Thank you for sharing. You're very lucky to have your parents. I enjoyed all videos so I also like to thank the people behind the videos. Btw, when are you going to have your mom in the video.
Made it to episode 100 😀 Epic video, great to see your collection. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for watching!!
I seriously just can't get enough of your Cartier Santos Dumont and it has been bugging me as i've been trying like crazy going through the most of your uploads that i've watch but i can't seem to find the one which you mentioned that you wear a lady size Cartier santos dumont which is the one in the video, would you happen to know which one was it? also would love if you let me know on the reference for this AND is it possible maybe just maybe that you could do a lug2lug on it cause i seriously just cannot get enough of it, you're a big influence on getting me so into Cartier and not looking at it on a view of "Fashion Watch" it ridiculous come to think that people do think of it that way as they have SO MUCH horological history behind the brand.
Thank you Christian!
Christian, beautiful collection. I'm filled with envy. What exactly was that watch you received for your graduation? Stunning, can't figure it out I must know. Btw I'm 21 also T&H huge inspiration to my watch geek-dom. Keep'em coming.
Thanks so much, man! It was an anonymous jump hour watch - I havent been able to find another! And I cant tell you how much your support means!
Santos is effing awesone, pure class as tgv would say.
I think so too- a real beauty!
Here's to 100 more! 🍻
Cheers!!
Just became a subscriber nice videos. Love the insight and honestly. Vintage fan here as well. Keep up the great work!!
Thanks so much for taking the time to watch!!
I think it's pretty cool that you still have your first watch. I'm sure that makes your parents proud.
Sometimes its the small, relatively inexpensive gifts that mean a whole ton!
I agree with the size argument but i love my Enicar Super Divette it looks classy with a steel band imo. On the other hand(no pun intended) my Croton Chronomasters they are very sporty looking no matter how you cut it.
Finally a collection video! :D
Hahaha thanks for watching!!
+Theo and Harris always ^_^
A great honestly personal collection. Love it.
Nice collection, it really shows your character. And that Cartier Santos is beautiful!
I agree - such a stunning watch! Much better looking than its owner hahah
Really enjoyed this video and listening to your thoughts! Lovely watch collection wishing you all the best!
You have very interesting collection and I really appreciate your emotional connection to some of your time pieces. I simply have to disagree with you on watch sizes and approach to this factor. Guy who is 2.5 times your size and has much larger wrist, simply can not wear watches that you do and vice versa. Size is main reason I gave up on vintage time pieces. Thanks for SOTC.
Wow, you've converted me to vintage Cartier Santos. Excellent video and beautifully curated collection!
I think it;s just so beautiful! Thank you for watching!!
Only recently began my watch addiction and I began with a swatch XD
Hi Christian,
Congrats on the 100th vid.
Also, who made the leather strap for your Rolex? Thanks
You went from a swatch to a Rolex wow that's a huge leap
Hahah it is!
How would a ref.1603 date just with a blue dial compare in terms of rarity?
Great video! Keep up the awesome work, good sir!
What strap did the 1601 come with, Christian??
Great video and great points about being secure about your own style. "Popular culture" is destroying Western culture. That Cartier is pure Elegance.
What do you think of the Cartier Santos Galbee? i've got a pre 2000, two tone, I think it's beautiful :)
Killer watch!! Definitely a beauty.
So Proud happy 100 episode 🎉🎉🎉💥🍷
Thanks so much for following, ALex!
You have great taste. Loved seeing your collection
Congrats T&H for 100 great videos. You now I love a lot of them, but this is my favorite so far, because it's so personal. What a great way to celebrate the 100th video. Great collection you have. It amazes me the knowledge you have on vintage watches and at your age it seems just impossible ;) quick questions, where do you see your collection go? do you ever think you could get a modern model a chance, if so, do you have anyone in mind right now? Congrats once again and now we want Hanna back!! hahaha. #whatisupwhatchfam?
Thanks so muhc for folliwng, Pedro!! And a great question - I'd love to own a Glashutte Original and a reverso ultra thin but I dont see that happening at the moment! Maybe a vintage quartz 36mm Royal Oak as well!
I enjoyed this episode a lot.
Congratulations and nice to see some Cartier love in the collection.
Thanks so much for watching!!
Great video nice collection one of, if not your best vid I've seen.
Big congrats Chris! Really love this channel. Nice Santos BTW
Thank you so much!!
Congrats 100 videos! Well Done!
Thank you!!
Great Video! Which exact Ref. is the Cartier Tank?
Congrats! Keep it up Christian.
Best,
My first watch was a tissot chronograph Quartz given from my dad, then about 12 years later. My father gave me his Rolex explorer ref. 114270. I only wear just that watch.
I really enjoy your collection, besides these two watches I have a 1898 lady pocket watch that I personally fix the latch, but the beauty and art of the pocket watch is amazing, like almost embellished, French fleur de lies style . It still ticking time! Maybe I'll give it to my future wife, haha. Anyways, I think omegas are amazing for the price, the sea masters are amazing, and I still have mine.
This was an excellent video. Loved it.
So glad you enjoyed!
Great video. I to don't have a problem with small watches. I have a massive wrist. So much so that I have to use the last hole on a nato. I wear small vintage watches all the time. Once you get use to it. Going to a 40mm feels ridiculous
Hahah right?? so relate able!!
Nice collection. That Santos is great!
Fantastic, cool collection. Great video!
Congratulations on 100!
I was hoping to win the JLC for this milestone, mainly because it fits my personality. 😂
hahahahaahahahh too funny, man!
what's the brand of the strap on your graduation watch again? John Rizzo? Thanks.
So sorry! It's Jean Rousseau!
