7 Reasons To Wear A Watch | Why You Should Start Wearing A Wristwatch 

What do you think of TW steel watches?

+funbucket09 Fashion watch. Nothing more.

+Sean Oneal what are you 10 years old please keep your brain farts to yourself

Gag and gas attribution p "

Marine Comm The watch must be good looking for people to wear them out on special occasions the watch that you have is obviously something that a person who works in the trade or something like the story you told us that you do what you did which might not be true but nobody gives a rats ass

Micsmit 45 lol same and i have a tan line there

Pepper Shaker same here

Micsmit 45 Absolutely. On the very rare occasion I leave the house without it I have to turn around and go and get it. Feels very strange to not have it on.

I haven't taken my watch off since March

+Matt Schwartz same, weird isn't it?

+Scott McDermott Cell phone is kind of like a pocket watch, but without a chain.

+Andrew Piatek haha I just realized that, you're right! never thought about it, you sir deserve more upvotes.

hundreddollarbiller Come on, isn't it like the first thing that come to one's mind? I only hope cell phones will once go obsolete same as the pocked watch.

+Scott McDermott doesn't have a clock in his car either! haha

+Paddyslippers I use my chronograph watch to time things at work, time my Rubik's cube times, etc. I won't be bringing my car to the office to do that. Watch is really best for that.

+Mike Hunt exactly!

Watches are now banned by my exam board due to the smart watches

Tom Spencer A few of the 'top' level exams have banned watches in my country as well. But for a student, wristwatches help a lot where phones are not allowed. And here 98% of the exams still do allow watches.

star999nine I have never once seen an examination take place in a room with a clock.

star999nine Indian. No there isn't any practical reason to do so. But they never find a reason to put it there in the first place. We take our exams in normal classrooms. They don't have clocks either. So the invigilator just reminds us the time every 15 or so minutes. All the state level or national level exams have clocks in the hall but majority of the exams don't.

Most classrooms in my experience had wall clocks so meh.

Agreed.

+Jordan Schlansky what are your doing here Jordan, shouldn't you be wasting time in your office?

TheRitzNE That's what I'm doing.

clocking a e

Is this really jordan schlansky?

+John Wick No Shit Sherlock

+Lars Dahl It adds style too.

I thought the same thing lol

+Lars Dahl you will never understand it. thats what makes you and him different

+Rafay Tashkeel Hahaha!

the only. wat

I agree. You could tell people you're just checking the time on your phone, but it's neater to check your watch, in my opinion. It's a sign of a neat personality. Like someone who takes pride in the little things such as a janitor or when a cashier wraps your bags up nicely. It's a nice feeling to others and you. The culture of wearing a watch is so intriguing to me.

I used to check the time on my phone a lot,and now having a watch definitely limits my screen time on my phone and it doesn't make me look like I'm always on my phone when I just want to check the time, especially in a professional setting where you're not supposed to be on your phone or when being on your phone looks rude, I.E.checking the time on your phone during church.

I would say he will wear them more often now

+Luis Martin Cuz they are sponsored :)

He's gonna start wearing one in every video because you pointed that out

+Luis Martin Not true - I have a lot more videos coming where I do wear a watch BUT I batch process my filming an in some cases you are watching a video I shot 3-5 months ago. My newer vids have me wearing a watch :) But good eye for detail!

+Malaquias Alfaro I will!

You may be asking yourself, "Antonio, why the fuck am I watching this?" I know I am.

Shit there goes my sides.

Plamen Vasilev Strange... It's merely four minutes away from then for me and I'm just now watching this.

+signore del tempo Except a broken watch is more often further away from the correct time x)

+John Wick How could it ever? We just have a _wide_ approximation of the current time. Even the most accurate clock ever created cannot keep it (it's esteemed to lose 1s every 15 billions years), let alone commercial watches. Just consider the time between reading the time from an accurate source (which will anyway be behind) and setting it on your watch: seconds and seconds lost!

Jesus calm down... No need to be so exact

I imagine that the Seiko GPS watches or the Citizen satellite watches are probably milliseconds out of sync considering they use atomic time.

If you want to be that exact, then it goes the other way too. After billions (of trillions) of years, all those one-second accumulations will eventually coincide with the correct time, exactly.

Awesome! Which style are you going to buy?

I look for diesel watches, because of their design and outdoor characteristics. And because of your videos i can decide a way better.

+Maxwell cough go for seiko😏

+Maxwell Nothing wrong with diesel watches, go with what you like. I do recommend that you look over other options tho. Since diesels main thing isn't watches. If you want a watch that whit stands much and have a high quality i would say seiko or victorinox. Not to expensive and good quality. Victorinox did a watch called inox, it says to with stand much pressure. Its a nice looking watch. Go with whatever rocks your boat but the watches from companys that doesn't care about or have a passion for just watches may not hold for so long. Have a good day :)

try casio watches

+OmaMansou it does say a lot about the wearer's personality

"What happens after a few hours with these things? Or maybe 8 hours if you've got a good one?" Is he seriously implying that smartphones die after 8 hours or less? Maybe if you only stream videos with your brightness on max for 8 hours straight. And the second point, about how it takes ~1.5 mins to get your phone out of your pocket. Again. Are you kidding? Or just seriously mentally handicapped. If it really takes you over a minute to get your phone out of your pocket then you probably shouldn't be carrying one at all. What are you going to do if someone calls you? Your phone only rings for 30 seconds. That's it. Also, with the danger that he was talking about checking the time and driving, on my droid turbo I created an activation phrase, and when I say "droid, activate," it turns on. From there I can ask it anything from "what time is it" to "how much is the tuition for Stanford" and it will annunciate the answer.

As an addition to my last, in the event that it was not clear enough, all of that can be done while it is still in my pocket.

+COLLABERATORZ Ouija Able interesting points

@P A nah gen z is super into fashion because of social media, and watches are absolutely a fashion piece

@P A I agree that Apple Watches are incredibly ugly, so I'm not sure what we disagree about there.

@P A I said that "watches" are a fashion piece. All watches. Yes they are functional and useful but ALL watches are undeniably an accessory/fashion piece as well.

@P A Crazy to me that you can afford a Rolex when you couldn't even comprehend what I was saying until I clarified it 3 times. Must be a hand me down from a more successful relative.

+calamper it's called an agenda :-P

+calamper its called gittin that $$$$$ i would do it

+Ellis Frost .. or he approaches a watch company and asks if they are interested in him promoting them? You almost make it sound like these people are putting advertising at the bottom of their list, when it's at the top, and then speak of integrity? Open your eyes.

+John Wick Yeah ... right.

Ferdian Tanjung Mandahiling Koto you can't find that becuase it's not bad. Watches are usefull.

+tmz85 Appreciate it - and good to see I'm not the only one!

+J Johnson Great to hear! :) Really pricey.

+J Johnson attracts compliments? what a simp you are ... who gives a shit what ppl think! holy shit, people with real money and real intellect don't wear watches or if they do they just wear something simple and don't give a shit. holy shit, i feel like i went to a timewarp to 1982 where men are watching Miami Vice and thinking how cool they'd look in a Member's Only jacket. such tools you all are

+David Beecroft So why did you bother to click on the video and then troll my comment? Besides, I never cared for Miami Vice nor trhat culture.

Lol!!!!! Awwww c'mon now, don't get so mad, kid. Go home to mama. Oh I forgot, you're straddling that fat ugly pig right now. LOL!!!!!!!LOL!!!!!!BWA HA HA HA HA!!!!!

+David Beecroft Guys who emphasize the beta status of other men are about as beta and pathetic as you can get, and far from alpha.

+Joe M well said Joe!

+Mayank Bhattacharya ur videos too are good woul like to meet u soon

Will I see you at style con?

+Malaquias Alfaro Time will tell. I have plans. But only time will tell. :)

+Prabhanjan Kulkarni Thank you so much! Means a lot. We shall meet soon.. :)

+Mayank Bhattacharya You are VERY welcome! What would you like to see next?

+Jake Groet sticking to a classy style is your best bet :)

A $2 digital quartz watch tells time more accurately than a $20,000 Rolex with an automatic movement. Being into watches is great but no need to be pretentious about it.

@@lloydirving6209 Good point! I didn't mean to come across as pretentious or elitist, but as a 3 time heart-attack survivor, I have a heightened respect for time. Agreed, an inexpensive digital IS more accurate than a $20,000 Rolex mechanical and I wouldn't buy one even if I could afford one (Trust me, I can't). My meaning was, for me, I now have more respect for time than I did before. Wearing a watch, any watch, tells me that person also respects time, theirs and other people's.

@@akeeperofoddknowledge4956 That makes a lot of sense, thanks for the clarification. It can be hard to discern tone over text sometimes. Major props and respect to you for surviving 3 heart attacks as well, my dad suffered a nasty one in 2017 but he pulled through and is doing great today. Scariest day of my life. Much love to you, enjoy retirement.

@@lloydirving6209 Thank you, sir for being a gentleman! Hope your dad is doing well and he is keeping active. Very important!

I know your comment was 6 years ago. But you are absolutely correct. I recently bought a Casio A168. A cheap 20 dollar watch. Not bad looking either. And its been noticed far more than my more expensive watches which cost me 100s of dollars more.

Unless you changed your car battery the time is off. Lol.

+Inspector Gadget The time isn't off for my 2000 4runner limited.

Except my hands-free cellphone holder covers my dashboard clock. HA!

Christopher Inductivo mine's brokebn

Yeah but no idea how to set it. Currently says 01:30 but it’s still daylight.

+Joshua Bracke Very nice!

shadowstorm545 Preach!

shadowstorm545 I got a G-shock ga100 1a1. So convenient and looks very nice. Gotten many compliments from friends and family.

Osama and Obamas watch.

I love Casio digital watches.

I love Casio digital watches.

+awildtomappears it might happen - people are getting into wearing watches again

+Hereford Johnson I get video suggestions from you guys

+Dinesh S.P. thank you sir!

+da Bob It really depends on one's preference - but if you still want the classy watches. It's still available. And there are certain rules about wearing the right size for your wrist.

+da Bob It's partially the current style, but it's also tied to function in many cases. Kinetic / self-winding watches are often larger due to the additional moving parts inside. Satellite watches, watches with multiple hands/faces, etc. etc. As many modern watches have added functionality beyond simply keeping time they've trended larger in order to accommodate all that functionality. I suspect adding features is how most watch makers are attempting to maintain relevance in the smartphone era. Being a rather slim man, it can be frustrating.

First, I have to agree with the frustration as a man of fairly thin wrists. Finding these pie-plate sized things to put on my arm feels crazy and looks even worse. Second, and as much as I appreciate your comment, watches ARE NOT bigger due to the kinetic/self-winding mechanisms. I am wearing on my skinny wrist - as I type this - a very attractive, very SLIM watch from +/- 1962 called an Omega Constellation. It was my grandfather's, then my fathers, and now it is mine. Its is maybe 36mm in diameter and quite slim to boot. Oh, and did I mention it is self-winding?!? I used to think that watch was amazing as a young boy, back when you had to WIND UP watches to make them work, but the point here is that kinetic powered watches have been around a long, long time -- well before the "pie plates" came along in recent years :) ALso many years ago were multi-function watches - - nice, smallish watches called chronometers. Maybe its cheaper to make them with big parts, but certainly not necessary. Look inside those huge watches and you will find LOTS of open space. Most watch mechanisms are tiny and take up very little space (in any dimension). Its all about style, not a need for more space, that these monstrosities exist. (Ever see an Apple watch? Do you know all those things can DO within 38mm?!!). By the way, you failed to mention my own theory for the larger watches which rings true with me and my generation: You can SEE them more easily with older eyes!! Best regards, Bob

+da Bob Thanks for the info. I wound up looking into them further; I had no idea self-winders actually date back to just after WW1. Part of what actually got me interested in watches was that I remember my great uncles and grandfathers having old heirloom timepieces but by the time I reached adulthood they'd all passed away and the timepieces had been long lost, sold, or broken. I have a self-winding Seiko that's about 40mm diameter and that's one of (if not the) smallest of the type I've seen. It's a heavy thing (weighs twice as much as even similarly sized watches do.. so, imagine a barbell) and doesn't appear to have lots of spare room in it, but perhaps they took a cue from McDonald's and supersized everything. ;-) I suppose it was just optimistic rationalization on my part, but the ugly truth will only make finding decently-sized watches even more frustrating now.

Oh well, didn't mean to go down a depressing route :) I wrote out of frustration, finding watches I liked on Amazon only to find they were much bigger than I wanted. Saw your comment after only having just pulled out my dad's Omega, so it was fresh in my mind and I had to say something. Its amazing the "micro-technology" there was so many years ago, isn't it? I just ended up with another Seiko (solar this time!) that I'm trying to get accustomed to at 40mm. Looks nice but a tad big for my taste. If it lasts 20 years like the last one (still working), I guess I'll be happy. I'm not a jewelry wearer per-se, so its all about telling time and reliability for me :) Cheers! Bob

+Оfficially Mе (Gallifreyan) Appreciate it! I work hard to balance promotions (that I believe in) with great content that is useful!

+Keith Burke yes! exactly

+Mike Filippello That and 6 more reasons on my end - www.realmenrealstyle.com/7-reasons-wear-watch/.

David Broughall Mine doesn’t last 6 hours to be honest.

What good will your phone do you if you're on a cruise ship out at sea or in an airplane over a desert or over the ocean?

If you take 1 minute to check the time on your phone, then you suck LOL.

+aperson22222 Love it - so did you agree with my point number 7?

Real Men Real Style Yeah, I think so. No idea whom I'll leave it to when the time comes. I'm kind of thinking I may just leave a note saying that all my loved ones are free to go through my stuff and take whatever.

+The Smart Budget Channel Cool!

Jaskn Da somebody Hahahah that's right

Jaskn Da somebody not all cars

This channel isn't for the average person it's for 'real men'

+Taylor Bowman I'm not really into watches yet here I am with a cheapo casio digital watch because my phone's battery is horrible. That and looks would be the only reasons for me.

+Taylor Bowman I find it quite sad you have to save money to be able to go to college :(

I wholeheartedly agree with this advice. Right on the mark with all 3 points.

+Michael Herman Hey I have a question on your 3 point. Im looking to get a pretty inexpensive watch for my first. I was looking at the Bulova Marine Star, but you say dont get Quartz movement watches? could I ask what is wrong with them?

Quartz movements - especially cheap quartz movements - are not built to last. If you want something disposable, quartz is fine. A mechanical watch, if cared for properly, will last a lifetime. Plus, the second hand has a smooth sweeping motion instead of the 'tick' associated with quartz watches, which looks pretty cool. Having said that, finding an automatic chronograph - which is more complicated than a regular automatic movement and therefore more expensive - in the same price range as the Marine Star might prove a challenge.

Ahh I see, thanks for your insight!

Michael Herman Just felt like letting you know that I've decided to go with the Orient Ray Automatic Watch

+craik Haha just stay focused!

+Vishal Mody it does help create a relationship with time and being considerate of others instead of paying attention to your watch's notifications

Same!

Me too!

Anirudh Parthiban Is it true you guys believe in cows?

What does that even suppose to mean?

@@anirudhparthiban1560 well he said "Do you believe in cows" so I think he is asking if you believe in the existence of cows, like one would ask "do you believe in aliens". Basically, he's a barely literate dolt who's unsure about the existence of cows. Much love from your brother across the border in pk ❤️

+Abraham Blea Thank you sir!

+flanker white for sure!

Totally agree with this. I wear G Shocks, Toughness brah

+Davidow1 Thank you!

I feel you too man. something about that slight movement of the wrist just astonishes me

+JP Sheehan I feel the same way. There's just something classic & cool about that motion that I just can't explain. And yeah, fumbling around trying to check your phone conveys a bit of disorganization.

+JP Sheehan I have to agree with you on that

It’s not silly. It’s truth

Archie would only call it a POS and then scream MAN ON THE MOON!

alter3go ROFL you must know ArchieLuxury =) I would love to see him compare it to his Calatrava that he sold.

Dog shit fuckers!!!!!

+rm2kdev lol that's good

+rm2kdev still have to be charged every day

+rm2kdev Understandable but I bought one and returned it in a few days. Not worth the money.

It's all personal opinion, I love mine, some people hate how you have to charge it, but who wears watches to sleep anyway?

Toms Tech someone that sleeps... and if you need it for time you can put it in low power mode, which will only show you time, and can last weeks.

+Imran Becks One word. Broke

+John Hackett One word save! Well it's meaningless without context, so save your money and get yourself pre-owned when you've earned it.

Moon watch ftw

+John Hackett you can get them for like 500, that's not that much

John Hackett If you want an iconic model like the Man on the Moon or a Bond style Seamaster, then yes, they're expensive. If you just want the brand, you can easily get Seamasters, Devilles and the likes from the 70's at very reasonable prices.

+joey floyd Good for you!

What phone do you have?

lol i was just thinking the same thing

+Dominic Lobban Not even a little bit?

+Dominic Lobban I haven't worn a watch for about that long too. I didn't miss it at first until a friend took me along for a watch shopping. I bought an Adidas sport watch on sale for cheap. Started wearing it and than realized how much I missed wearing a watch.

datsunmadman even when you sleep?

+JT Manuel For sure - it's definitely a must have for on-the-go people

+naser thmaide :)

+shelleyinthecity exactly!

shelleyinthecity 100% agree. I myself to pride myself on being early to every appointment. No matter what it maybe.

+Weston Powers I own both Automatic and Quartz watches. My Vostok Europe Limousine GAZ-14 Chronograph is a Quartz, as is my Tudor Monarch. Nothing wrong with having Quartz watches, especially if you use them as your everyday beater watch and only on occasion wear an Automatic/Manual winding watch.

+Maximus Decimus Peace

+Maximus Decimus Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

+Hulk Hulk smash!

+Maximus Decimus Why? Whats wrong with that? Its called being a good business person. If youre that sensitive to things like that that you must be a nervous and upset person.

***** "hulk" you must be 5'5 120 lbs and when you get angry you turn into a little girl.
