Thank you so much for WATCHing my video and I hope that you check out all my other content.
I release 3 videos per week, all watch related, including reviews, first impressions and general watch related topics.
I try very hard to diversify my content. Featuring known watch brands, microbrands, Aliexpress. Some I have purchased new, others second hand.
The majority of the watches that I feature I have purchased. I buy them to enjoy, wear, have in my collection. I then also feature them on this channel.
Being a smaller channel it is challenging to cover the cost of all the watches that I buy and partly because of this I have become an affiliate member with a number of companies including Aliexpress and Ashford.com.
If you are looking for watches from well known brands then it is worth checking out:
www.ashford.com
If you are looking for great strap options then definitely check out:
vario.sg/
and
artemstraps.com/collections/s...
As an affiliate member I may leave affiliate links in the descriptions of videos. These links will direct you to the watches that I’ve experienced, reviewed and would certainly recommend. If you choose to use those links I will earn a very small commission.
Thank you very much if you choose to use those links.
Below are affiliate links for my absolute favourite watches on Aliexpress. Each of them I have owned and had positive experiences with the stores that they are linked to.

I definitely match my watches to my clothes most of the time.

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

It is definitely noticeable 😄

@LTBallurio 19 дней назад

I am building a small kit with extra watches for my jeep ! Mostly to hide them from my wife!

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

Hahahaha.

@donnymac575 19 дней назад

Before I got into watches, I only had one watch for the longest time. Only having one watch made the decision easy on what watch I should wear for the day. Now I have various watches, with various bracelets, and with various different colored bands. For instance, If I'm wearing a black belt for the day, then I'll either keep the watch on the bracelet or switch the bracelet out for a black colored band. I use quick release spring bars so making the switch is pretty easy.

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

That is a good way around it.

@adk7962 19 дней назад

Oh man. I’ve doing it all wrong. I need more colorful dresses. Thank you Sophie! 😉 But yes, I do pick my watch first and then my clothes to match it. Although most of my watches are white, black, or gray so they go with anything. I have two blue dial watches, and I do pay a little more attention to what color I’m wearing that day. And of course after ALL this, I have to realize NO ONE cares about what I’m wearing. 😆. Thanks James!

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

That is very true. Hahahaha

@chriscon8463 19 дней назад

Sophie was awesome & a great addition to your video! You know you have a watch problem when you pick the watch for the day, then choose clothes to match the watch!

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

I’m very aware. Hahahaha

@brunops1 19 дней назад

Hahaha. Must confess I've already been there, mate. Since then, I've managed myself to return to the basics: choose the watch (amongst a 21 pieces collection) according to the outfit for the day (clothing, shoes and belt).

James, I do the exact same thing! Sometimes, I even match the watch dial to my wardrobe. My wife looks at me like I'm from a planet unknown. It took me a couple of days to pick 3 watches for our vacation. About your polo, shouldn't it have a kangaroo or no,no,no, a crocodile! Loved Sophie as well. Thanks for another great video James.

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

Hahahaha that would be great. Would make more sense

@respectablylate3081 19 дней назад

I completely agree as I coordinate my watch with outfit and purpose. As a teacher I change up my clothes depending on season and choose my watch depending on shirt colour, tie design/colour etc. Having over 200 watches helps... or doesn't! I'm in Sydney, hope to talk soon!

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

Wow 200. That’s awesome

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

Thanks again to Sophie

@dunderhay9169 19 дней назад

She was brilliant 😁 I will check out your link 👍

@steaknzp7855 19 дней назад

I almost always pick a watch based on the shirt I’m wearing that day and what I’m going to be doing. Earlier this week I added a second green dial watch to the box so I went out and bought a new green shirt to go with it. I have a few ‘junk drawer’ watches that I wear when gardening or doing anything that has a higher chance of breaking a watch.

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

Hahaha. That’s fantastic

@dwayneclayton6364 18 дней назад

It's a must!!! I pick my clothes to match the watch I want to wear.😇

@seangallagher4997 19 дней назад

My approach to which watch I wear is less based on fashion and more based on the idea that all of the watches in my collection should for the sake of the movements be used on a regular basis thus making sure that none of them are sitting idle with their gears in one position for long periods of time. I, therefore, have devised a schedule whereby the watches that are my favourites are paired with those that are not. The ones that I like more are worn 4.5 to 5 days and the others 2 to 2.5 days thus equaling two watches per week and allowing me to rotate through my 16 watch collection every 8 weeks. I, however, will break the cycle for utilitarian reasons (weddings=dress watch) or (rough work= old beater watch) but mostly I stick to the schedule and I enjoy seeing a different watch every few days and at same time I can look forward to the return in the schedule of my favourites.

Pretty much what I did do ...but er , 1 blue diver for 'summer' (selection of colurful natos); 1 black diver for winter ( smart casual office ) then 1 day each for solar dress & solar field ,unless I get a new watch ( 3 handers: 34 - 36mm CW63'/ Hamilton Jazzmaster) or a similar seiko 5 - the last type I also wear going out/weekends or my sarb.

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

Hahahaha. She was very nice and agreed to help me out.

@limehoff1 19 дней назад

I’ll do both, pick a watch first and then my clothes or pick an outfit first and then match the watch. It just depends on what the plans are for the day.

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

@kerryjgee 19 дней назад

Thanks for the kool video you two. Love that oris! As far as matching the watch etc goes, I dont wear divers with anything formal after seeing an estate agent in a suit with an oversized diver it kind of looked wrong, in my view.

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

Thanks for WATCHing

@dunderhay9169 19 дней назад

Not being very fashionable, the only time I matched my watch/strap to my clothes was on my daughter's wedding day. I do choose watches for activities though, sun cream and leather straps is not a good mix! I'm not a bracelet fan and not keen on rubber straps, my go to in the summer is two piece nylon straps, breathable, washable, tough and cheap as chips. Both my G-Shocks are on nylon too.

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

@RampartPh 14 дней назад

yes i do some matchy routine. especially if i'm wearing brown belt and brown shoes w/c means it's the brown watch or brown strapped watch i would be wearing. also i never do g-shocks when i need to dress up.

@WATCHingJames 14 дней назад

I do like to try and match strap, belt and shoes. But mostly when I’m dressing up a bit.

@johanvandersandt8904 18 дней назад

Sophy seems awesome! I generally pick stuff that matches my other stuff. My problem is that I can literally take half an hour to pick a watch. Australia seems a lot like Africa. The Karoo in particular! I don't do leather often either. I don't have an expensive collection so almost everything can be a beater if the need arises. I am a bit of a practical person and prefer function over aesthetics. Take care James!

@WATCHingJames 18 дней назад

Hahahaha. Sometimes I catch myself staring at the collection wondering which one to wear.

@johanvandersandt8904 18 дней назад

@harryno 14 дней назад

Of course, you also have to match the strap/bracelet to what you wear as well! Can make for a lot of fuss...lol

@WATCHingJames 14 дней назад

Hahahaha. Yes it can

@claycox5285 18 дней назад

I'm guilty of this! Fortunately, changing the strap usually does the trick!

@WATCHingJames 18 дней назад

A good way to get around it

@christopherhilton2539 19 дней назад

I will normally match my watch to what i am wearing unless I am doing work where the watch could get damaged and then it is one of my G-Shocks.

@EdwardViaTomato 16 дней назад

I'll wear a shiny/flashy "nice" watch with super casual (like athletic or "house clothes") outfits, but I probably won't wear my bulky sporty diver with a preppy look, unless I changed at work or something. That said, my flashier watches fall short of being explicitly formal.

@mariog7213 19 дней назад

Unless im wearing a suit or tux, other than that matching colors, my choice of watch has more to do with the occasion than with the style of clothing. I mean I’ll wear a solid 14k gold Longines estate tank with a chocolate lizard strap with a white t, jeans, and a nice pair of brown boots.

@clintonmccool2330 19 дней назад

If it's maybe a formal occasion, then a dress watch seems appropriate. Other than that, I absolutely pay no heed to what I'm wearing or colors or whatever. I wear the clothes I want and then wear the watch I want. Seriously, 99.999% of people don't care or even look at or notice your watch. And even if they do, who cares? I don't dress according to what other people want.

@WATCHingJames 19 дней назад

Agreed. No one else is really paying attention
