But considering there's a long waitlist for that watch, maybe they priced it correctly since obviously tons of people are willing to buy at that price.
It really is a shame about prices. My Mark 16 was £2500 this year. The new ones are more than double. The same can be said for older Omega compared to newer ones... yep , this is an expensive hobby
Any time I hold any of the Breitlings, they have good weight and heft to them and they feel so high quality. Rest I have handled rolexs, cartier, omega but none match that feel
This was my first year breaking into the world of the watches and you were a massive part of my education and excitement, Teddy. Thank you so much and I can’t wait to see what 2024 has in store for us all.
But truth is in order to afford luxuries such as cars or wristwatches like this, you’ll have to be involved with a multi dynamic platform capable of growing your money interests. People mostly downplay the role of a good portfolio manager until they’re burnt by their mistakes.
I don't think I need a portfolio manager. I can manage my own money and investments. I don't want to pay someone else to tell me what to do with my hard-earned cash.
That's a risky attitude, My friend. You might be missing out on some valuable opportunities and strategies that a portfolio analyst can offer. Also a portfolio manager can help you plan for your short-term and long-term goals, optimize your tax situation, diversify your portfolio, and avoid costly mistakes.
I agree with You. A portfolio manager also provide you with objective and unbiased advice, especially when you are facing emotional or stressful situations. They can help you stay on track and avoid making impulsive decisions that can harm your financial future.
I bought the Longines Spirit 40mm SS Blue dial 40mm time and date and man is this watch going back! Being a watch enthusiast I inspected the watch through a x10 loupe and although the dial was good enough the upper lugs had just terrible finishing. Imagine taking a metal file to the lug ends and flattening two angled surfaces into the lugs. The bottom lugs were perfect but the tops ones were just unacceptable. Plus the clasp on the leather bracelet had three dings in it. Unacceptable production quality on a brand new piece. My first good watch decades ago was Longines and I certainly won’t be buying from this brand again. I have a Tissot finished better than this. So disappointed it’s a lovely looking watch just very poor quality finishing. Longines - forget about it!
The Tudor Black Bay Burgundy METAS is an obvious one but for me it was rhe best purchase i made all year, just the perfect natural evolution of the Black Bay 41 slimming the case down and adding that Jubilee bracelet. It's arguably the safest/ most boring pick but they just nailed it with that one.
Awesome content Teddy. I can’t help but be tremendously impressed with PF. The GMT Rattrapante is probably the most unique and well made watch I’ve seen. So simple, yet so innovative. I know this is a high horology brand, but even if their prices were 10% to 20% lower, it would find itself on several watch collector’s list
Hey Teddy, would you recommend a good aftermarket watch band company? Was looking for a good everyday rubber band. thanks, your vids are great help in my slowly increasing watch collection.
My favourite video every year from Teddy! Thanks for a great 2023, and looking forward to another great year with you, Teddy! Cheers for all the wonderful content!
Teddy another great video. First I will go on record to say I don’t have a Rolex on my collection. However the puzzle watch is intriguing to me. Partly because the Puzzle is universal symbol for people with Autism. My son is autistic so I do feel a level of connection to the watch. It’s bit out of my price range but i do respect what Rolex is doing and will have a special place in my for it.
It was because of Teddy that i fell in love with Longines as a brand. Just got the Longines Spirit Zulu time gmt 39mm Green dial in Singapore. Beautiful timepiece, just love it!!! Thank you, Teddy!!
Here's a quote from The West Wing: 'Unique means “one of a kind.” Something can’t be very unique' - and I'd like to add: 'Neither can it be most unique'
Really COOL watches teddy, but why didnt you put the citizen tsuyosa😢 on the list, thats a great watch too.😅by the way really like your videos, thanks for the info😅
Just the work you put into this videos is astounding! It’s so organized and one of the only RU-vidrs that I know for a fact will have a structure time line in their videos Thanks
That Parmigiani Fleurier is one of the most exquisitely beautiful and tasteful things (not just watches) that I have ever seen. It is just absolute class to me. Outstanding!
Your watch content is the best on RU-vid… not robotically giving us features or talking about prices at resale… and most importantly a genuine feeling of excitement for watches. Thank you
In my minds eye i see the Vulcaine Cricket which I find utterly gorgeous and just that bit slightly quirky being on the wrist of someone like actor Terry Thomas back in the 1960s. Also really liked the NOMOS AHOI. Looks partly dress watch but built strong like a dive watch.
I actually picked the same Certina for the 5K Giveaway before even watching the Video, really a great Watch for the 1K price point, I already have a Tissot PM80 Seastar, I think they're probably very close, but you get the Titanium with the Certina for a few bucks more...obviously I would of just picked a Tudor Black Bay as my 1 watch if I could of!
I'm happy Longines was on this list so often especially the Longines Spirit Zulu Time GMT. Seems you missed Christopher Ward, they have smashed it out of the park with the Bel Canto, The Twelve and now the C1 Moonphase.
How you felt about the Hank Aaron is how I felt about the Roberto Clemente. If I was braves fan I’d get the Aaron too. I love every aspect of the Roberto, even to the back out of /3000 (for his 3000 hits) to the 21 being black and gold. It’s just impeccable.
Please make a review of Tissot Le Locle Open Heart! It's to me such a beautiful watch at a reasonable price and I am interested to hear your thoughts about it. Thanks!
For me, it was the first expensive watch I bought. The Oris Aquis New York Harbour. I had no intention of buying a watch at that time, but when I saw it, I knew I had to have it and pulled the trigger the next day! Still after wearing it a lot in rotation with other pieces, its still my favorite! It is now accompanied with the Oris Wings of Hope!
hi tedd, im your big fan from PHILIPPINES. LITTLE BIT SAD NOT TO JOIN IN THIS RAFFLE, but im happy to watch and learn more from you about watch... God bless
Hello, good evening, I hope I'm not disturbing you. I have been looking for information about this collectible Breitling watch, but I haven't found much information about it. What little I found was that it is a watch created by the company in 1986, the "Breitling Navitimer 3300 Jupiter 'Blue Angels' Chronograph L.E." I was just wondering if you could make a video about this excellent watch? Thank you very much.
IWC Engineur was my favorite, but as you iterated , it's rrp is too much. The Oris Big Crown is on my wish list and it punches well above it's weight division for the price.
Teddy and Team, Thank you for a terrific year of watch education. Stopped by my Omega AD and tried on the various 75th Anniversary watches. Very impressed with the Seamaster 300 (Heritage) and the Planet Ocean models. I purchased eight watches from your team members (Jon & Will) and they are superb professionals. Keep up the great work in 2024 and wishing you and the team a Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!
Sorry Teddy but I can't agree with your statement that Certina makes the best dive watch for about $1,000 because it is hopelessly, even hilariously out-specced by another diver at around the same price. I'm talking about a certain Tissot with specs that rival those of that Planet Ocean in your list.
I've recently began my obsession as a watch collector. And i must say- out of all the luxury brands I've been researching, for me the MaMaCoo 's watches are the most intriguing.
The Lorier is certainly appealing in many ways, but that acrylic crystal is a deal killer for me, as I can only imagine how many scratches I would put on that thing in a short amount of time.
Ah yes, marketing and timing missteps, which love them or not Rolex excels at and Blancpain does not. I like the brand but they really do fail to capitalize on their history and potential (aren't they the oldest operating watchmaker or is it Breguet?).
Does anyone know the reference number of the Certina DS Action Diver Titanium 38? In the video the bezel looks almost brown or plum, but when I search for it online I only see grey. I want that watch!!
The BB54 should have gone white gold on the hands and markers. I know it's historically accurate, but I don't like that the dial doesn't match the biezel.
Teddy, I’d like to get a Seiko Metronome for my musician son-in-law, but don’t see it on your website? It doesn’t seem to be widely available anywhere. Can you or anyone on your team help?
Great video! If I could add one watch to the list it would be the Citizen Tsuyosa. Bought the Tiffany dial version after I saw your review earlier this year. By far my cheapest watch in my collection, but ultimately the one I love most at the moment! It's just such amazing value for money and the dials are just stunning!
Teddy, great wrap up for 2023. I too like the PF Tonda GMT, but suspect you didn't remember the JLC Q1628420 which had the same elegant approach without the use of two extra buttons.
teddy please can you speak with longines so they can remove those stars on the dial ...im really considering that spirit 37mm but the stars kinda really mess everything for that little tool looking watch ...i dont mind if they want it on luxurious diver but on a tool watch to have those is a bit cringy😅
The IWC is not worth the price difference over the Baume riviera, it’s a very very similar watch yes the finishing is better, but no way is it more than a thousand dollars better.
Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the amzwatch, its specs for price and clean looks, now am looking for a dress watch to add.
Really wish Teddy would be slightly less bias towards small watches. Im a bigger guy and these watches that are less than 40mm just aren’t on my radar.
