After many requests following my video on building a perfect 3 piece watch collection for under $500, today we cover the same topic, but for under $1000. To make this extra special and fun, we are joined by Marc from Long Island Watch, an expert with extensive watch industry insider knowledge, and a friend of the Urban Gentry channel.
In this episode we pick our top choices from Hamilton, Seiko, Orient, Lorier, Laco and many more, as we put together the best selection we can for the money. We also chat about watch trends, what we love about these watches, what we dislike, what is needed to complete a collection, our own collecting habits, recent acquisitions, and an initial reaction to the new 2020 Rolex releases. So, get your favorite beverage ready, get comfy, and join us for a laidback chat about all things watches.

Mark has a true humility about him that makes me want to buy his watches and it is a treat to see you guys again together on a video. Friendship is one of the keys to a happy life. And a nice watch or two never hurts as well. Take care and stay well. The world needs good-hearted people in all walks of life. --Michael

The great thing about Seiko is that they managed to produce cool watches beyond the 1970s. Only Omega with the Seamaster 300m in the 1990s can claim anything new. Just around the time Seiko comes out with the modern Alpinist. And then in the 2000s they came out with the SARB line, which I personally think is peak Seiko. Beyond its time, shame they were never sold in the West.

You two bring a smile to my face, and I really enjoy your videos. Recently I acquired the Rangemaster mechanical, and it has become my on duty watch. Thank you for the smile I get when I watch you two. Oh , say hi to hugo

Great video TGV, and I'm already looking forward to your next collaberation. One thing I think is awesome with Marc, is that even though he's a dealer he comes off more as a presenter of new watches that are available. And he also can be critical on some detail of his own products. AND then he also has his incredible helpful Watch and Learn series from quite some years back now, which is of course totally not promoting anything, but just sharing knowledge. Hearing how a mechanical movement works from an engineer's point of view is damn interesting. Great personality as well.

Great and informative discussion. I will play along and list my $1,000 list : (Coincidentally, all available from Long Island Watch) 1. Seiko SARB-035: $350 (at least when I purchased several years ago!) 2. Orient Bambino: $160 (specifically 2nd gen cream dial/blue hands) 3. Islander Diver : $300 (take your pick!) 4. Islander ISL-054 "Sinn 556A/Rolex Explorer type": $200 (my newest and one of my favorites) If I could up the budget a bit I would have to add a Casio G-Shock, specifically model GWM5610-1 solar powered quartz: $130 ( a great and dependable "beater" watch).

I also have a Longines 1945 arrive on Monday - something I've wanted since it came out. PS - live your colabs with Mark. Good work.

Thank you guys - this was a pure joy. Wearing my Orient Star Seeker (white dial) that my wife got for me for my 40th birthday four years ago from... Long Island Watch! Thank you Mark for everything you do. I've got my eye on a 42mm B-Uhr from Laco, for all the reasons you stated (black dial for me). TGV, give yourself another pat on the back. Your interviewing style is so excellent and laid-back, and you don't get credit for your production, which has always been A+. (As an aside , why am I wearing a GMT? I'm not going anywhere...) Currently waiting for my Citizen Sailhawk to land, so there's something to think about - Yacht Timers! Personally I HAAATE things like the Frédérique Constant or TNG mechanicals (because I actually race sailboats) so re-synching on a gun is quasi-impossible unless you have a quartz - My go-to was a Casio yacht timer (early 90's) which would let me recalibrate on the next minute of the sequence but the gasket's gone and I had to epoxy the bezel back on so it's retired (389 AW-300 - genius watch!). Now that I think of it, coordinate discussion of yacht timers with 2021 America's Cup - those boats are insane, so it'll keep, but I'd love your take because they are such a cool niche. Thanks again guys! Stay safe!

I’ve owned the flighty for a year now, the domed hardlex is gorgeous! It’s quartz movement doesn’t miss a beat and I set all my watches to it. Never had to reset its time except when changing for daylight savings. I am a bracelet guy and the bracelet is a bit of a let down with only a few micro adjustments and the hollow polished middle links. For the price it’s crazy. Bought mine for under 190. I am selling it and I will miss it but I’m glad to have owned one and can’t wait to see what I decide on next!
