This isn't a watch-review...this is cinematic brilliance. Well done, Sir!
A Franco Zeffirelli’s production !
Couldn't agree more went and got myself a beer just so I could enjoy it and relax.
The guy is amazing as are his vids would love to bump into him on my travels and buy him a beer keep up the good work pal
Love that fact that you have a couple 100 grand in fine timepieces and you’re humble enough to enjoy a more basic low budget piece in a high dollar environment. Very cool
even if i was loaded i would still prefer wearing my Seiko's over Rolex
The Seiko is a work of art and in that respect superior to the Rolex which in all honesty is as classy as a rat with a gold tooth. As watches are the worst long term investments just buy them because you personally like wearing them as works of art
Wear what makes you happy. I never care to impress. My collection is all over the board. I just bought the Seiko because it appealed to me.
@@keithrjoseph9528 you have no idea of what you’re talking about sadly...
@@keithrjoseph9528 work of art?! Just got me a LE Alpinist and for a thousand bucks I got a nice dial with a wobbly compass. This is poor quality that should have cost max 200. Not a fan of Rolex but at least their quality is good.
I feel like your vids get closest to the essence of the romance and dreams of horology and the beauty of desiring and owning watches and how time is transcendent like the places you visit and the music you use to soundtrack it all and we try to apprehend time in mechanical and beautiful symmetry with a watch that is a piece of art
Jay Paul I was just about to say that! Lol. Well put my friend!!
Absolutely well put JP!!
Exactly that! And I’m sure I’m not the only who is massively grateful for the thought and effort that goes into these videos!
The lyrical choice of music is nice, The Moldau by Smetana, though thematically odd since the Moldau is a lowlands river in the Czech Republic, and your location is in the high Alps.
Feel the same. This guy gets it. These things we admire, these beautiful and functional watches, are examples of when humans are doing good, when great technology meets great art, and how that makes us feel about the world we live in.
On every level this channel is sublime. Nearly missed the ending... so glad I didn't. You guys cracked me up.
Dear god, man! The quality of this channel is outstanding! Great watch content wrapped inside a cinematic, approachable and mature presentation. By far the highest quality watch channel on YT.
Archie Luxury has higher quality watch content...said no one ever
@@wagsbass I gave up on that ignorant man-child a long time ago. As an adult, I can't respect a "man" who whines about how hard life is and blames everyone else for his situation. We all have what we have because we do what we do.
I always make time for The Timeless Watch Channel.
Like your Channel as well👌🏼🙌🏻 why you deactivated coments under your 15500 Review?
Dear Mayor of Cortina, kindly make out a big fat cheque to this incredible Irishman. This is National Watchographic material!
haha!
Your videos are next level, don’t know what i like more the watch content or the stunning locations in which you choose to make them. Great ending
Once again, absolutely stunning production quality. You’ve created one of the best watch channels in the game.
I said it once and I say it again. It is a pleasure to watch and you don't dissapoint with humour! Hope you're by now feeling better, with this said Cheers from germany
Thanks man.
The Timeless Watch Channel You're welcome!!!!!🏁😎
As soon as I get a TTWC new video notification I immediately pour myself a glass of wine
now that's what i like to hear!
You and your daughter have earned my like and sub, and i don't dish'em out often. Her filming skills are great,and the fact you guys use eachother's hobbies and interests to create something and,at the same time, spend quality father/daughter time together that's just heartwarming. Best of luck for you both.
thanks so much!
I am not a Seiko fanboy but........ your videos are simply on another level. Simply superb.
The music at the start of the video automatically plays in my head when I wear this watch. 😄
I don't know how, but I completely missed your daughter the first time I watched this. I'm considering picking up an alpinist, and figured I would give this another look beforehand. Love that ending!
I am so WOW'd with the video. You pulled it so beautiful for a Seiko Sarb. Really excellent video production . Not everybody can come up with your effect.
I like it when you daughter sneaks at the end. Very cool spoof ! Hahaha
I was drinking coffee 6:00am watching your video. Nice way to start my day.
Cheers
The only watch channel that I can sit down and watch with the moth.
Apologize to her on my behalf!
The best watch channel on the planet.
Very enjoyable film. As a BBC self shooting director I do a lot of this and your production value and creative design is excellent. I do hope your daughter stays with it too. Best Gabe
Damn. That's high praise! Thanks for watching!
Having just gotten into watches and binging non-stop the last 6 months....I think you are the first person to actually explain proper use of that "compass"....thanks
I absolutely love the format of these videos - the combination of a watch review and a stunning travelogue works superbly!
Wow - what a great channel. I've been watching for a few months now. I never comment on UA-cam channels but hey, it's time! I'm a watch guy, but I also LOVE Italy. You capture both and I that's part of the draw for me ... oh + wine and music! I'm making my 5th and 6th trip to Italy in April and September of this year ... just started going in 2016. Cant get enough. September's trip starts in Cortina d'Ampezzo! We are doing 7 days hiking through the dolomites before coming back down into civilization for another week in northern Italy. Unfortunately, I cannot buy a watch on this trip, but I did buy one in 2017 & 2019 ... both on the Ponte Vecchio in Firenze. Great memories captured in time pieces to be cherished. Keep putting up the content and we'll all come along for the ride.
Sorry Rick Steves, I'll be watching The "Traveling Watch Channel" from here on out. Keep making these and I have found a truly binge worthy channel. Incredible video.
Then you should check out my other vids in Venice, Siena, Bassano & Padova. Thanks for watching!
Always look forward to a new video. Just superb!!
As a great wine and watch lover I enjoy your beautiful videos much! Always a perfect composition of music, landscapes and of course watches. Grande complimento...
Thanks Markus!! New one dropping in the next couple of days!
still come back to this video now and then. Still in awe at the wonderful cinematics and presentation, well done sir
These video's are the best. I poured a cab sab, wound my SARB017 for the viewing. I live in Houston and this reminded me of what I am missing of my home, skiing in Alberta.
Your videos are at another level. Beautiful, passionate, funny. Man, you've found your calling.
Visited Cortina in 2018. Loved it. My father worked there in the 50's.
Another stunning video, glad I stayed right to the end for the craic!! (You big bully )👍👍😎
My first automatic watch, and the beginning of my love story with Seiko ! Beautiful video, thank you sir !
We aren’t getting watch reviews here. Well, we are, but more importantly. We are getting fucking ART! This is beautiful, man. This is why your channel stands out FAR above the rest. Top o’ the World, O’Malley!
Two years ago you introduced me to the Seiko Alpinist with this video. I couldn't stop thinking about it and half a year later I bought it for myself as a graduation present. I absolutely adore it, thank you so much!
I must say your videos are refreshing and the images of the watches with the scenery in the background are outstanding
It just gets better and better .... Bravo 👏
Watched this again because I just picked up a Sarb017.. I never saw the very end of the video before.. hysterical 👍🏻
Pure class gets better every video. Cheers 🍻
I bought mine for £350 and absolutely loved it until I just looked at it one day and thought you'tre beautiful but you have no role in my life, bye bye, It's lovely and someone in Argentina is now hopefully appreciating it. Good luck SARB017
The music gets me every time
Best Seiko Alpinist review so far. Well done. Italy is beautiful.
Spent many times hear skiing with my daughter years ago absolutely love this place. Keep up the good work fantastic video doesn't get anymore refined than this. Pure class.
Love the ending. It Cracked me up
Thoroughly enjoy everything about your videos, music and scenery are masterful, stories genuine and fun, and your thoughts on the watches always interesting and informative. You obviously enjoy making these vids, as so many others have said- they are truly art.
These are going over $1,000 now. One of the most beautiful watches there is. A legend and classic.
Stunning place, production quality and let's not forget the watch. What a beauty! Cool that you visit this place together with your daughter. Sláinte mhaith!
I believe this watch has the perfect dimensions, feels really good on the wrist
Keep up the good work
Your time-lapse videos are better than TGVs... bravo.
People says they buy a good quality watch to be able to handover to his next generation and you have handed over your channel to your next generation!!! Congratulations... I must say she has a good career in UA-cam. It was one of your best combinations of amazing location, excellent filming and incredible orchestra. Truly mind blowing.
Happen to be wearing my SARB017 now. Fun, versatile, and no fears about babying it.
Stunning video (and watch of course!).
A visual feast and certainly the finest-produced video I have seen for a watch review! Pure class.
Smashing end to this! Killer!
Excellent video, once again. I loved that bit at the end with your daughter, too. Great stuff!
Best episode. Ending was excellent. You trained her good.
I'm glad I found this channel. This video was a pleasure to watch. I just ordered my SARB017 and it should arrive on Friday. After viewing this video, I absolutely can't wait to receive it!
This message makes me very happy. Congrats!
I have been watching this gentleman's videos for a while and today i realized i was not even subscribed to his channel, his videos are amazing, watching them makes me feel less guilty for loving watches so much, I guess we are too many in love with horology around the world, these videos transport me to beautiful places in this planet, I just subscribed here, thank you for sharing great videos Sir.
Thanks Zeus!
So glad I finally got around to watching this beautiful video. Kudos to your daughter the budding cinematographer! Makes me want to take my SARB017 out for a hike!
I love my SARB017 even more now.
Thank you Oisin.
Just picked up the brown dial one half price and it’s a beauty! My first Seiko and holds its own with much more expensive pieces in my collection. Love the channel, fantastic cinematography, and refreshing compared to lots of other vids top down view analysing nothing but the specifications of a watch!
good videos, this video made me buy the sarb017 and it became my favourite go to watch despite having much pricier pieces in my collection.
What achingly beautiful scenery. As someone that grew up in Europe and the US I hope to God I do not just grow old and never be able to return back home to Europe. Your videos bring me back home. Keep up the good work!
Your opening sequences are truly inspiring to own a luxury watch, you carry us even further into your videos to share your experience
in purchasing a time piece with not a hint of boastfulness but appreciation in your choice of purchase and scenery to match is outstanding,
truly makes me want to purchase my first luxury watch in Italy (Rolex) Venice would be my choice as for a few years my family
and I always stayed at the San Clemente Palace Hotel on its own Island with their own luxury wooden boats ferrying guests to and fro from
St Marks Square, nothing can beat the memories of going past The Cipriani Hotel in the evening and then seeing Venice lit up in the darkness ahead.
Good to see your involving your daughter with your videos.
Yeah Lidia!!!! Your famous now! Love the ending....thank your mum for telling me about this....by the way, I was there that weekend as well! Heading back this weekend!!!! Lovely place...(Piper's dad).
I loved this video review for several reasons. The opening and closing of the video used the opening of Swan Lake by Tchaikovsky, one of my favorite numbers. The reviewer also put in significant effort to show context of the types of settings the watch can blend in to. I also really like shots of the watch at the ends with various backgrounds. In particular, the one that had the watch sitting on the snow with the Alps in the back reminded me of that part in Lord of the Rings when Frodo dropped the Ring as they were going over the Pass of Caradhras, and right before Boromir picked it up, it laid there on the snow, very similar to how the watch was displayed in one of these shots. The review reminded me of these sorts of things to the point that now I have to have this watch. Seiko should pay you for this review. It overall at minimum was well done and I really enjoyed it. Keep making these videos.
The music and and the pictures are INCREDIBLE. Very well done.
The most well-rounded horoligical video I've ever watched. Very nice!
Gosh darn it, I sold mine a few years back and now you made me want one again.
You should do a travel channel, these location shoots are amazing.
Another absolutely top class video. You have of course just made this watch change from being difficult to find to bloody impossible 😄
That ending, is the icing on a superb video,, lol,,,
Thank you so much,,,,,
I used to not be a fan of the Alpinist, but as the year go by it grows on me more and more. I definitely agree that after a certain point you can enjoy the finer things in life... But as for Ed Norton's statement, I don't think you're ever too high class to have a servants heart. In fact serving others is probably the classiest thing you can do.
Best video yet! Nice one.
Lovely video. I am glad I stayed to the end to see Lydia. She is a total mini-me, breathy voice and all. I like to think I would have guessed she was kin just from the voice.
BREATHTAKING scenic shots in this video!
That intro was masterful
Loved the review ... Fantastic scenery, it was a real journey .. Fabulous music choice ... Sweeping and majestic .. But I really enjoyed the end scene ... Yes it's your channel ... For now at least ... Your girl done good :) .... and I learnt about a seiko I knew nothing about previously. Cheers both . Well Done.
And I was thinking already, where the heck is this guy😎?!? No video uploads recently, nothing... And then this one... Gotta say, it was definitely worth the wait. Awesome video in any way. Enjoy Cortina, the Wine and the Alpinist of course 🍷👍
Glad to see a wider breadth of watches to be reviewed. Best part was the last minute. The connection you have with your daughter - thumbs up.
Great video!!!!!! Hats off to your daughter ! I am going to purchase this watch tomorrow - Thank you for showing me the beauty of this watch.
Belissimo!!! Thank you for a wonderful episode! One aspect I like in particular about this channel, it is done with style. Hope to see many more.
Anton Hartman thanks so much! If you wanna help me make more of these, please consider becoming a patron. Info under the video! Thanks!
Another great video, they seem to get better each time out! Nice change of pace featuring a Seiko. I own a SARB035 and they are great watches for the money. They’re not without their weaknesses, which is to be expected for a $400 watch, but overall the finish and proportions are outstanding for the price. Well done as always!
PS - great sweater and loved the little “post credits” scene! ;)
Beautiful video. Well done as always. Cheers! 👏
Had the Alpinist, bought the Breitling, will be buying a Rolex. Hell saw a bottle of Barolo in Tesco and bought that too. This is the best watch channel by far. Pass me a cigar!
Finally got around to watching this one. I’ve seen so many comments last couple years about “the Alpinist” video being their favorite.
I’m about half way through and see what all the hype was about. Simply stunning. The music, the scenery… I’m just immersed.
My guy youre on to something really good with these great locations and watch presentations. Cheers from NYC.
This is the best watch video that I have viewed.
Dude, you just set the benchmark for watch channels. Absolutely brilliant!!
Wow your daughter has amazing videography skills, if that's the word. Blown away, well done
Greatness. I bought the very last one on Amazon on New Years Day 2021. Because of the compass, I feel it serves more for explorers than the Rolex Explorer.
Just incredible, absolutely phenomenal
Setting the bar for innovative reviews. Stunning scenery and the watch wasn’t bad too. Love that you reviewed lesser known models. Oh, and Tchaikovsky’s score was perfect 👌 Bravissimo 😊
bravissimo great video,soundtrack,scenery. i was enjoying that glass of wine with you up in the mountains i almost forgot you were doing a watch review. you and your daughter keep up the good work, cheers my friend.
Nice touch featuring Smetana's The Moldau.A rare treat. Thank you.
Well spotted!
That green colour on the face of the watch is divine!
Sea-Dweller ? Ha ha ha . I can't believe you are doing Seiko watches now . I like this one. I have a Seiko sarbo33 and love it . Beautiful mountains . I was a climber when I was younger .
just watched this, amazing cinematography and photography, coupled and synced to swan lake...Wow! Nice cameo of your daughter at the end! She does amazing work.
This is easily one of my favorite watch reviews!
Great pleasure to see this beautiful video....thank
you very much!! 👍
Wow!! What a beautiful video!! The quality and content are BEST that I have seen in UA-cam.....congratulations.
Thanks for this beautifully put together review of the Alpinist. The mountain town of Cortina reminds me of the Ford Cortina of the early-mid sixty's when I was barely a teenager which was the years that I started to become aware of watch brands the likes of Omega, Rado, Enica, Cyma, Tudor, Rolex, Seiko and Orient.
The setting of the Cortina mountains reminds me of my days in the Province of Alberta in western Canada. The Towns of Canmore, Banff and Jasper. The blue sky and beautiful white-capped mountain tops and passes. Simply breathtaking...
Thanks again for putting together this wonderful and classy video. Many thanks to your daughter as well for her contribution.
What a beautiful city and scenery. The watch is striking! I love how thick it is which makes a very bold statement. The lack of anti glare on the sapphire crystal could be used as a rescue alert device in case you get stuck somewhere in the mountains. Awesome job on the video, enjoyed every minute of it. The ending was hilarious!
