The little quip at 4:24 where Michael subtly questions if Christian knows what cockfight is and Christian answering 'what?' is the great comedic timing we all love from this duo

@croco1968 Год назад

I remember very well the AP tourbillon you had, a special Japan edition with a black dial :) Great watch!

Reminds me of my gold Patek Nautilus 3700 I sold in 2005 for $15,000 and pleased that I'd made a couple thousand after wearing it for 14 years. Now over $200k.

I don’t like tourbillons, just don’t like the look of a gaping hole in the dial. I’d much rather have an grande sonnerie

@ryanjofre 10 месяцев назад

That was back when it was priced @ what’s it’s really worth.

@theonewson1987 Год назад

Lovely AP however imo there’s a lot going on - the dial, the bezel, the tourb, it looks better when the dial is simple and the tourb really pops

and of course you have the success of the Casio G-Shock Casioak and now the new kits you can buy for modding. I think taking design inspiration from other designs is fine as long as it is not just a straight forward copy.

@dBsdecibels Год назад

Still pretty new to the watch world, and Breguet is probably my favorite brand. Their guichet and enamel dials are incredible. I wasn't aware of Daniel Roth, but now I am, thank you! They have a similar artistry. Don't know that I'll ever afford one, but I will appreciate them from afar! My mom doesn't do the watch thing. Probably for the best too, because she's a little badass. She has a black belt, scuba dives, chops wood, goes hunting, all in a petite 5',

@diavalus Год назад

If you’re new into the watch world but already know of Breguet, then you had a good start. There is a female (the one living in the UK) with a channel here on youtube which had no idea about Breguet till recently.

Are they still called AP, or do we just say Royal Oak Watch Company

@dimman77 Год назад

Problem number one with Zenith is that their designers seem to have a great looking watch 90% finished then screw it up in the last 10% of their work. There's always some little "off" thing that screws what could have been a great design. I think part of the design problem with Zenith is that they relied too much on the Elite and El Primero movements. And when those used subdials (El Primero usually as a Chrono, Elite often with 9h sub seconds) in their design they are WAY too close to the center and on anything bigger than 36mm look incredibly pinched together. If the style cycle swings back to very small watches for men Zenith is well positioned there if they hire a new design team (or whichever manager is "tweaking" it right before production).

@richardolmos6908 Год назад

Hidden tourbillon is cool.. hidden chrono is next level!

@bradmaytum5309 Год назад

I have a Unimatic (LE with Massena Lab) that I bought ~2 yrs ago and have NEVER worn it. In fact I was thinking about selling it recently. Based on Christian's comments maybe I'll put it on the wrist and try it out for a bit.

@dukes70 Год назад

I actually like Unimatic a lot. I have several. Which one is it? They’ve done several with Massena Lab.

Are you guys sure that the AP tourb was being worn by the clerk or was it the owner maybe?

@frankpentangeli7945 Год назад

That's exactly what I was thinking ... there is ZERO chance a guy working at UPS owns an AP Tourbillon. That was clearly a fake. And are there UPS store "owners"? They're just offices with managers, aren't they? In any event, unless it was another customer I seriously doubt the legitimacy of that AP Christian saw in the UPS office.

I’m paraphrasing here: So you say to guy, hey nice watch. He says thanks, you like AP? You say, yeah I had one those but got rid of it. Sooo who let their manhood swing first? Cmon Christian, that’s such a I’m so cool that I got rid of the watch you’re super proud of maneuver, even if you didn’t mean it. We’ve all had someone do that, whether it be in person or on social media. Doesn’t feel great, but I’m a thin skinned baby man that super really cares about what others think. 😬

@Mthusiast4life Год назад

I think while the dial is Grand Seiko-ish, the rest really ain't. We also need to bear with the poor manufacturers, as every year they got to bring up something new and it started to really become an super tricky task to deliver everytime. Sometimes our guys go the slippery route ( not saying any names ) but yo 50mm in diameter is very ambitious😅

Tag Heuer is the working man's Rolex. I hope that isn't too offensive to people that think that Rolex is the working man's Rolex. I've been surprised to find that Tag has a Relex-esque notoriety among the blue collar professionals that I know.

Calling the AP "Audemars Piguet Tourbillon Grand Seiko" A person in Japan and Switzerland are watching Theo and Harris at the same time. The Grand Seiko dial designer starts laughing at the same time the AP dial designer threw up in his mouth. Hilarious. Grand Seiko owns that dial design language.
