There is no better watch for $300 - Tissot Luxury Automatic
Просмотров 17 тыс.2 года назад
The Tissot Luxury Automatic watch with Powermatic 80 movement is, in my mind at least, the absolute best value in current matchmaking. At less than $300, nothing else can offer such a solid Swiss made movement, sapphire crystal, and such a fantastic original design. Yes, you may argue that it is lacking the hand finishing and refinement of an Omega or Rolex. However, I believe this watch offers...
Hamilton Khaki Field Auto vs Vaer A5 Field White - Best Sub $1k Automatic Field Watch?
Просмотров 23 тыс.2 года назад
Here are two of my favorite field watches and two of the best field watches south of around $1600 (that is where Weiss Field Watches start and those seem like a significant step up from these two though I have not had any personal experience with Weiss Watches yet). Both of these watches are amazing and I hope this comparison is helpful and entertaining.

VAER A5 Field White USA Automatic - Initial Review and Brief History
Просмотров 10 тыс.2 года назад
A fantastic field watch with real American roots! Vaer may be rather new to the scene but I propose that they should be strongly considered as solid tool watch options in the sub $1500 price bracket. If the A5 and A7 were around when I got my Hamilton Khaki Field Auto, I may well have ended up with this watch instead!
Orbita Watch Winder Thoughts - Short Ramble
Просмотров 9352 года назад
Just got my first watch winder! I would not have bought a watch winder myself, but it came along with my Grand Seiko and I am quite glad I have it. Pretty sweet accessory to a watch collection. Big time saver if you want to keep a watch wound and always ready to go. Plus, I think it looks super cool.
Seiko 5 SNK807 - Best Mechanical Watch Under $100? - Long Term Review
Просмотров 20 тыс.3 года назад
The Seiko 5 SNK is the best value mechanical watch available today. It is enjoyed and appreciated by both people who are totally new to watches as well as to seasoned collectors. As such, the SNK has built up a huge following and is a top recommendation for those looking for their first mechanical watch. I have owned mine for over six years now and still consistently wear it in my rotation of w...
Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 - Full Review and History
Просмотров 94 тыс.3 года назад
Well known to watch enthusiasts as the "value proposition" watch, the Tissot Gentleman does indeed offer a fantastic array of features at a great price including great looks, an 80hr power reserve, and silicon balance spring. I do really enjoy this watch and always recommend it when people ask me for ideas on what their first Swiss automatic watch should be. However, it does have one arguably m...
Tissot Carson Premium Lady - Best Women's Watch Under $750
Просмотров 25 тыс.3 года назад
I would highly recommend this watch to any women looking for a high quality timepiece that will look fantastic in a variety of settings. Between the looks, build quality, Swiss automatic movement, and classic design language, the Tissot Carson Premium Lady is one heck of a watch. In my opinion, it is easily the best entry level Swiss made automatic watch on the market. My mom, sister and I rece...

Hamilton Khaki Field Auto 38mm Full Review and History
Просмотров 81 тыс.3 года назад
I have owned my Hamilton Khaki Field Auto 38mm for 6 years now and thought I would share my experiences with this watch! What a phenomenal timepiece indeed. It is without question one of the best if not the best Swiss automatic watch under $600. Very thankful for my parents who kindly gifted me this watch many years ago. It will always be very special to me. Back when I was given this watch, Au...

    I was torn between getting the Gentleman or the Open Heart Gentleman. I think I've settled on getting the Gentleman (blue dial), the open heart is interesting but a bit too flashy for me.

  • @nicholasmilne2908
    @nicholasmilne2908 13 дней назад

    They're both basic time and date steel sports watches in the GADA category but that's it. The dials are very different up close, hands, the type of indices, the lume etc. If you hadn't mentioned the OP I wouldn't have entered my mind when I was looking at the Gentleman.

  • @MegaF1guy

    That's a nice watch if it didn't have the Powermatic 80 in it. Buying a Tissot with a beat rate of 21,6 00 beats per hour (imo) defeats the purpose of buying a Swiss watch. The unmolested ETA2824-2 has a beat rate of 28,800 vibrations per hour. that makes the second counter sweep so much smoother. I do get why they dropped the beat rate, it was to get a higher power reserve. My other problem with Powermatic 80 movements is the escapement wheel and the pallet fork are made from plastic. using plastic in a movement that cost a fair amount of money seems a bit wrong. I sure can't argue that. It's a very beautiful looking watch though.

    I have the exact same watch - and I love it! I agree the dial is so mesmerizing and the fine details really shine through a variety of ways. I messed up (lost) the pin & collar system when adjusting the bracelet so I was forced to throw the silicone strap on and I love it even more! So comfortable I think I’ll keep it on!!

  • @annekedebruyn7797
    @annekedebruyn7797 4 месяца назад

    Finishing and dial aside. I honestly prefer the case design of the Gentleman better than the Oyster. The bezzle design of the Oyster makes the watchface feel a bit cramped. On the Gentleman, the watchface looks a bit larger than it is. I don't think anyone would confuse the gentleman for a rolex for that reason alone.

    Being in the service for many years I mainly used gshock; however, now I'm starting to get into watches. I recently bought my first automatic watch and am really enjoying learning about other brands. This was a great video! Very informative. I'd have to go with the VAER for being less expensive and having better features.

    I've watched quite a few vids about Tissot and no one has explained their history and innovations as well as you. I have been contemplating buying the Gentleman, recently. Your information might contribute to whether I do or not. PS. The kicker at the end put me off. If someone else thinks its a Rolex, it might get ripped off my wrist. So, I'm out!
