Top 7 Toughest Watches For The End Of The World Or Zombie Apocalypse - The Best Options $50 To $10K
In today's video I round up the 7 toughest watches that would serve you best in an end-of-civilisation scenario. No matter the budget or end of days event (alien invasion, rampaging Godzilla, giant asteroid, nuclear war, or zombie apocalypse), these choices will have the Gentry keeping time in any situation!
We start with a look at my favourite mil-spec watch, the TSAR & GSAR from the legendary Canadian brand Marathon. Next I discuss the useful practicality of the Casio Protrek PRW-3000 series that could save your life. I then share my personal choice, none other than the trusty ceramic Submariner by Rolex. I follow up with the Sinn UX, perhaps one of the toughest watches ever made and the pinnacle of German ingenuity.
The German theme continues with the sun powered Nomos Sonnenuhr, followed by the ever relied upon and Japanese invented G-shock. Tough as nails as these timepieces all are, there can only be one winner and that title goes to the Swiss with the Victorinox INOX, the only watch in the world that can survive being run over by a 64 ton tank and much, much more!
What would your end of the world horological choice be? Share your selection with your fellow doomsday preppers in the comments below!

Just got home from my 3 week adventure in Australia. Didn't take off my Sinn 104 once. I wore it while skydiving, scuba diving, surfing, hiking and exploring the rainforest. It's a bit scratched up now but boy does it have character!
@theurbangentry
@theurbangentry 6 лет назад
I love that, best comment so far! Thank you so much for sharing that. Gotta love the 104, may you keep enjoying it and keep adding to that character! Best regards, TGV

@thepatientcollector3769 6 лет назад
It's such a versatile watch.. If I wear it on my bracelet (Super Engineer 2 with an adjustable ratchet clasp) it wears like a diver, if I wear it on the Sinn leather strap it looks very elegant yet sporty. On a Bond nato it just looks badass! I love love love the 104! It made me become a one-watch-person.

The Patient Collector I’m in Florida right now, I just purchased a freestyle ballistic dive watch with 200 meter waterproof dive depth. I wore it today in the ocean swimming and it got completely submerged and covered in sand but after washing it off for 10 seconds in fresh water it’s completely fine! I love having a watch that is so durable. My father also has a Timex Expedition watch that he’s has for years. It’s completely water proof and everything with a nylon band.

Still amazed at Casio for making so many watches that are incredibly tough for such low prices. The Gshocks value just deserves respect and all the praise it gets. I definitely appreciate it every day by thinking: "I spent a hundred on this and if I jump from a mountain, I would die horribly, but this little thing would tick on happily"

I pulled out my Solar Gshock the other day (that I got for Christmas when I was 12) it was covered in dust, hasn't been touched in years and has been heavily abused, I took it up to my window and held it in the sun for about 10 seconds and now its working fine. They are indestructible.

Tbf, a strong enough emp will cause damage to mechanical watches as well unless it has a faraday cage built into the case. Maybe won't destroy it but will definitely affect it's ability to keep time

Like the program, good review, only one I’d sub out out is the victorinox for the citizen promaster tough with the eco drive, 80% battery life after 20 years, 6 months on the power reserve and monocoque case with front load and sapphire. 200m water resistant, simple, plain and reliable. Perfect watch for the end of the world.

Wouldn’t need to worry about the battery running out. However, if i knew i wasn’t going to make out out alive, or that zombies upon me and going to rip me apart and eat me as an horderve (nice zombie feasting clip btw), I’d want a watch like James Bond had in Spectre...to use on myself💥😁

That would be a great place to be when doomsday comes, down at the bottom of Patagonia, and far from Manhattan, where it seems (by the movies at least) to always be the epicenter of Armageddon. LOL. Great intro. Keep up the great work. I am a huge fan.
