This is a tremendous & well balanced collection. I’ve gone as high as 16 watches & now down to 10. I’d like to drop down to 8 watches for a solid rotation, but each person must find their own “sweet spot.” 😁 The Oris is probably my favorite from your timepieces; excellent representation of luxury, value, style, & quality. 👍🏻 Greetings from 🇺🇸
Wild collection. In a good way. You went for what you liked and sampled ownership. That's great. I'm not so brave. I'm taking time to decide what watches I want to own. Great vid!
Hello, and thanks for this video. It's great to see watches from some brands that are not so usual to discover into collections like Tutima, Nomos or Maurice Lacroix. As, also, some not so usual watches from more usual brands, like the ones you've got from Sinn or from Cartier.
Great collection. I had this dilemma before, and personally reduced from 14 to 4 watches and from last two month to 3 and never look back. Feel more happy with my 3 watches then before with 14 stock.
What a great collection. I love the way you put the time in the collection as a data point for each watch discussed. I’m have the same dilemma with my watch collection to reduce the size to a manageable four-six piece collection or an embrace the variety of a larger 20-30 piece collection, even though the 4-6 watches get 90% of wrist time.
I love your collection, its colorfulness, and its span of price points. I love the Nomos and the the Tutima for their colors, but for me the Sinn Arktis would be my favorite. (I do think the Explorer bi-color looks fantastic on your wrist - don’t sell that one.) Less sure about the skeleton - maybe consider letting that one go, if you’re going to downsize?
I like having variety in my collection, but I do think you should limit yourself to your box (1 in, 1 out), probably need to try some non Rolex higher end brands, and maybe get a GMT? I Love having 4 or 5 higher end watches and some other cheaper favorites for variety and weekends.
@Leonardo for the transparent plastic of your G-Shock, you can try hitting it with a heat gun, depending on type of plastic it will clear to factory....
I really like your video and I also like your collection. You gave enough time and info for every piece and all those watches look wonderful. My eyes lit up when I saw the Club Campus. I really like this watch and am thinking of getting one for myself but perhaps with a less striking dial colour. I also really like the Tutima but didn't realise it is quite a chunky watch at 12.7mm (the short lug-to-lug would accentuate this imo). The Baltic is also a gorgie i really like that the movement fills out the whole case but like yourself, Im not sure I'm entirely on board with the flat bezel. You have some very nice Seiko. I have a few myself but they are mostly entry level 5's from the older line that included the Urchin and Fathoms style models. Brave choice picking up the two-tone Explorer. To me, it has too many similarities with your OP, and personally, I would keep the latter if one had to go. Once again great watches and great presentation style. I will be looking forward to more videos from you 😊
I think you have an awesome collection and it was interesting to hear the story behind your watches! I do wonder why you (as someone who is clearly into watches) ends up buying two rather simple Rolexes as your high end pieces. You describe the OP perfectly as a 'simple and classic everyday watch' but then say 'you struggle to find the right occasion to wear it because its a Rolex'. If thats how you feel, then I think there are many alternatives that fly a bit more under the radar. Also love the watch roll! What brand is it?
Agreed you got too many watches, but I would suggest you have too many watches that look the same. I would look at those watches that look similar and keep the watch that makes you feel something special. A totally personal thing, don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.
Strange take - I’d argue that was one of the more eclectic and interesting collection reviews I’ve seen on YT. Bar the bland OP almost every watch was really different and had personality.
Sell the cheaper ones and have a group of 3-5 higher end or sentimental pieces. All the money spent on cheaper watches could have been invested in better quality. Always buy quality
