Luxury watches from Rolex, Omega, Patek Philippe, Tudor, and Audemars Piguet feature on today’s curated luxury watch safari spectacle! Sports watches, dress watches, chronographs, high complications, and simple watches animate today’s presentation for watch buyers, watch collectors, and watch enthusiasts!
Rolex watches always anchor the “Weekend Watches” video lineup, and today’s episode is no exception.
The Rolex Daytona in stainless steel and ceramic proves equal to its legendary reputation; this chronograph has incredible wrist presence. The GMT-Master II or Rolex “Pepsi” GMT hit the airline scene in 1954 as a pilot’s watch for Pan Am aviators; today, our white gold Rolex GMT offers a tantalizing prospect for collectors of significant and discontinued Rolex models. And for those who prefer a sports-casual aesthetic, the rose gold ceramic-bezel Rolex Yacht-Master “Oysterflex” combines rich Everose 18-karat alloy with an Oysterflex strap (rubber-coated bracelet).
Patek Philippe watches represent the ultimate aspirational purchase for many watch buyers, and Tim selected a few of his favorites for this episode. A one-year Patek Philippe 5960/1A-010 ebony dial, stainless steel, full-bracelet annual calendar flyback chronograph stuns the host himself. The Patek Philippe 5235G Regulator is a handsome white gold annual calendar that Tim has declared as his inevitable “first Patek Philippe.” A yellow gold cloisonné enamel dial Patek Philippe 5231J Calatrava world time is ideal for travelers who fly first class. Finally, the Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time is ideal for world wanderers who need to keep track of far flung business partners, family, and friends.
Only one Omega watch appears on this program, but it is a great one; the Omega Speemaster Moonwatch Dark Side of The Moon. When launched at Baselworld 2013, this 44.25mm black ceramic chronograph created a sensation. Today, the landmark Speedmaster Dark Side remains a stunning statement of uncompromised design vision and execution. Its automatic caliber 9300 co-axial chronometer movement remains a world-class power plant and a point of reference for rival watchmakers.
Additional luxury watches from A. Lange & Sohne, De Bethune, Panerai, Longines, Jaeger LeCoultre, Tudor, and Vacheron Constantin assure an unrivaled window-shopping experience for collectors of all luxury watch brands and styles!

Tim, your command of the English language and descriptions of the watches is unbelievable. I often have to rewind and listen a second and third time. You are. Best!
That Patek Philippe is the best traveling time piece you can get in the market - juts amazing!!!
The Aquanaut TT is a special watch. Its utility is hard to match, and I appreciate that Patek was able to increase the capability of the core Aquanaut platform without adding to the size.
Best,
Tim
Very enjoyable presentation! You are so good at this. Thanks Tim.
Thank you Sir for another wonderful watch presentation and history lesson. Continued support in all your endeavors and travels for yourself and WatchBox. Your are the best on the net and industry. Stay safe and warm.
Thank you, Dave. This made my day.
Best,
Tim
Happy to see a couple great Vacherons on the show today! Would love to end up with an Lange 1815 chronograph one day. Thanks Tim!
Thanks for watching, Joseph! I love Vacheron and Lange, so I strive to feature at least one of each on the show. For my money, those are among the best buys in preowned watches and offer more for your money than equivalent used Journe or Patek models.
Best,
Tim
Another good show, Tim. I love seeing all the Jaeger LeCoultre watches. Like you, JLC was my first horologic obsession.
Mine too. I still enjoy the brand and its sensational back catalog of glory.
Best,
Tim
Oh my word, that JLC Duometre. Great show today Tim, and many thanks for drawing my attention to this model.
That's probably my favorite piece from the show. If I had to pick one, it would be that or the 5960.
Best,
Tim
Great show Tim, the Patek that you closed the show on with that bracelet may be my all time favorite PP, it's just a beautiful eye catching watch that really has a distinct look of it's own, the model stands out from any other from the brand, what a beauty ⌚
I like the new Winter trees background...soothing 🙂 Anyway, that Offshore was actually quite nice. Also like the subtle styling and accuracy of the JLC platinum tourbillon. And I prefer this green dialed steel Panerai to the bronze version, with a handsome in-house movement under that display back too.
That JLC is a beast. I still love the brand, so I try to highlight its best on a regular basis. As for the 999, it's one of the few Panerai models that I'd like to own. The brand isn't for me, but certain models are appealing. That's how I feel about quite a few brands.
Best,
Ttim
Good morning Tim! Love that VC retrograde! Love that intensity of that black dial.
Another selection of amazing pieces. 👍
You are a beast, Tim! Keep up the great work and thank you.
Another amazing show! Bring back "Versus" please!!
Hi Jonathan, thanks for supporting the show. I'd love to add a high-quality feature in the future, and comparisons are an obvious candidate. I want to revive some version of "Versus" for this channel as an occasional feature.
Best,
Tim
Wow, that first watch looks 😍.
Well look at that, you should do some live selling too. 😊 I'm sure many watch lovers would be happy to buy whichever they like.
Tim... fantastic...thank you.Passion brother !
Not a huge fan of silver dials in general, but tbh it is the best option for the 1815 chrono. So legible with the blue hands, and the package so amazingly proportioned and simple. Incredible watch
I love to play what three if for your show's! So...... Pam 999, Lange 1815 Crono, Patek 5231J. Thanks Tim.
Excellent choices! I'd probably choose the 5960/1A, the Duometre, and the PAM 999 so I have one watch that can get wet.
Best,
Tim
Another mouth-watering watches, Thanks Tim :D
I have to say the De Bethune DB25 Starry Sky DB25L and the Jaeger-LeCoultre Duometre A Quantieme Lunaire are awesome both in their own way.
I think the Patek Philippe 5960/1A-010 Annual Calendar Chronograph might be my favorite watch from Patek at the moment.
While I love the 5235, the legibility (minimal) and lame (none) limit its utility and appeal as an actual watch. After experiencing both firsthand, I prefer the 5960/1A ebony.
Best,
Tim
Tim you frequently talk about vertical clutch or horizontal clutch chronograph. Could You do a video discussing differences and reference great examples the pros and cons. Assuming one way is cheaper etc. Such a beautiful watch when hand wound be nice to understand the differences.
Nice to see some Longines on the show 😉 love that Legends Diver although I think it’s nicer with the Milanese loop. A true budget option to the Polaris and one I’d use as intended
I was extremely pleased when that watch became available for the show. We don't see too many Longines watches in the business due to our client profile, but I enjoy them as an excellent example of a value brand that knows its strengths.
Best,
Tim
Stunning! and the watches weren't bad either!
Tim, you just ‘killed’ me with that ebony dial 5960a which Thierry showed at the NYC Exhibit, when I wore my white dialed one to introduce myself 6/16/17...
I love that watch. Ebony 5960 over a Nautilus every day of the week...
Best,
Tim
I agree the ‘les historiques’ is the handsomest VC ever made. The only platinum watch I ever owned, kept advancing the date when checking the time. Sold it for my first Lange 1...
At least that leaves you with a Lange 1! I'd have qualms about making that trade unless the incoming watch were superb, and the Lange surely qualifies.
Best,
Tim
WatchBox Reviews This was back in2004-5...sold that Lange 1 and got a Grand 1 ( not the yellow dialed) with over lapping dials years later...bought the VC when I was actually looking for a 42005 régulateur...now I’m VC-less!!!
Ah, finally putting a face to the voice. Fantastic show as usual.
Great as always Tim! That Rolex 116719 BLRO in Gold, how many of those do you estimate they made/are out there? Thanks!
Nice show as always to end the weekend guys. Lets play 'spot Tim's shades'.... In my opinion, this vid is a bit on the bright side. Those Yatch-master are really growing on me. Have been saving up for a diver that are most likely be a sub but those Yatch-master sure look fine... Ride safe Tim and have a nice weekend guys. It is a hot and sunny Sunday here in Kuala Lumpur. You can bet I'll be back next week.
Hi Tim,
What do you mean by "OCTAGON" when talking about watches?
7:21 - Ultra OCTAGON pieces from JLC.
27:18 - This is OCTAGON finishing.
Thank you!
I’ve left critical comments in recent past about audio quality, so I want to give a shout-out to the team for the progress made for this episode. Volume seemed much more balanced and no noticeable clipping on louder words. Good work!
Thank you, Kevin. I asked that we prioritize the elementary stuff that suffered when we moved the studio. This crew has done a laudable job of improving our production values in about a week's time.
Best,
Tim
The pride of Argentina is amazing. Truly a grail of grails.
malthus101
Cmon it’s a men’s watch. For example I don’t wear anything smaller than 45. So for me it might be even too small.
malthus101
It’s about 9 inches (23cm)
Another great show, but quite undermined by the lighting. Could you please fix it so that we don't have these systematic light reflections on the watches?
Tim, what is the advantage (if any) of using soldered/welded lugs vs forging, machining, casting (or some combination of those)? It clearly started with modifying pocket watches, but why do it now?
Perhaps you could discuss this in a future talk. Cheers
PS - After further thought I guess maybe I can answer my own question in that it allows you to create lugs that look visibly separate from the case ("stepped out" as you say) as a stylistic point. And thinking about it that might be almost impossible for a forging or casting, and actually more expensive and time-consuming by machining. Interesting topic though...
That's correct. Creating lugs that read as separate is hard to do without mechanically assembling the parts and fixing them with screws. Incidentally, that's how Lange assembles its lugs, and it's a step behind Patek, JLC, and Vacheron products with true welded lug construction.
Best,
Tim
That Royal Oak looks as though your're wearing a Panzer tank on your wrist , crazy !
Mercifully, it's fairly light in titanium. I've never been an Offshore guy -- and this doesn't change my mind -- but I give credit to AP for creating a sensation with this POA variant of the watch.
Best,
Tim
Obviously my favorite was the AP 🇦🇷
Had a steel black Neptune which is the under the radar Patek...
That and the salmon dial model are watches I recommend often. There aren't many full-bracelet steel Patek Philippe models that sell for less than a used Daytona.
Best,
Tim
Wow not an omega guy but that darkside of the moon looks incredible
32:07 If it was initially a single time zone watch then the bezel would be calculating a second time zone, not a third, correct? I think that's what you meant because then you go on to say how, with the GMT-Master II, the 24-hour hand is the second time zone and now you can use the bezel to calculate a third time zone. I have several GMTs. I love them and their history, so I want to ensure I'm understanding correctly.
damachine3 Correct. A rare but slight slip of his tongue. He’s still the best there is at this.
@@williamumbach592 Totally agree. Tim is from another planet. My jaw drops every time I hear him effortlessly rattle off this stuff nonstop from watchtto watch. It's nothing short of amazing. I even told my wife about it. ;)
Any thoughts on solar powered watches ? Do any of the companies on the table have any plans to enter that field ?
Probably not. That's a sub-luxury marketplace focused on radio and quartz-driven products. It's a segment that's getting killed by smart watches and phones, so I suspect that luxury brands have good reasons to stay away from solar-powered electronic watches.
Best,
Tim
The DB is thick. How much mm is it?
Why are all the pateks with stickers on the casebacks?
Haven't been keeping up with the show for a bit but what's up with the suit man? Where's the Tim with the casual wear and sunglasses? I miss him
just before the rolla
The PP 5960: There seems to be quite a difference in market price between the black dial and the white one - the black almost 50% pricier than the white. How come? Different production years? Just popularity? I think both of them look good; the white pops out while the black could pass as a dressy accessory. This from a guy who 'hates' chronographs. Maybe Datograph could meddle me into the game.
that pride of Argentine AP might be the only AP watch i actually like.
That one impressed me. Titanium, blue, and rose gold looks stunning in these proportions, and 100 seems like a truly "limited" edition considering AP has offered thousands of units in previous "limited" production runs.
Best,
Tim
love the strap on the Longines
It's a good piece. It reminds me of the embossed textile-style pattern that IWC uses on some of its calf skin pilot's watch straps.
Best,
Tim
Eric Gorter you should see it with the Milanese loop....they even do a DLC version now
Mosso and his watch fetish.... The audio is improving. How about some macros? Up close and personal is also improving. 🥃
Tim, when did you experience an Aquanaut in it's "natural habitat" (swimming)?
Remember, we used to be based out of Miami!
Best,
Tim
@@the1916companywatchreviews You took an Aquanaut (you didn't own) into the Atlantic Ocean?
It was a friend's watch, so technically yes. But no, it wasn't a company-sponsored joyride.
Best,
Tim
@@the1916companywatchreviews I need friends like yours haha. Great line: company sponsored joyride.
Are your glasses in the back meant to be a find Waldo ?
Yes.
Best,
Tim
I worship the house of Mosso, and was here through the sunglass era. So now the jacket era is here I suggest getting a tailor fit that shit!
Would add a DB in a New York second if there weren’t concerns about long term brand viability - that starry sky is just a grail among many!
Even the best independents are questionable in the long term. What happens to all the Kari and Akrivia pieces 30 years down the line? They have quite a few bespoke parts of their own in each case. DB is on a better financial footing than in the past, so survival isn't a concern for now. I suspect the watches will be serviceable no matter what as long as master watchmakers are employed and nobody tries to service a DB28 Digitale with a local ETA guy...
Best,
Tim
WatchBox Reviews - RR is quite young and KV has his dtr all in the business atm so I worry a little less about those - although DB has some private financing does it match the huge war chest Chanel does ? Though of course modern Roger Dubuis shows you can have funding but a terrible succession plan which sinks the brand 😂😂
Love that DB! Tim you're the ONLY exception to my new rule: no clicking ANY video with the word Rolex in it. So sick of their business model which is to say, money laundering.
Thanks, Eric! Of course, I only stick Rolex in the title for indexing on Google and RUclips. It's unfortunate, but it helps me sell more De Bethune, Laurent Ferrier, Urwerk, and Sinn -- all brands that mean more to me than Rolex.
Best,
Tim
Fuck you. Rolex has a great business model as it keeps working class yobs from buying their luxury SS watches.
Where are the sunglasses? :)
JLC!
he forgot the $62 Pagzni Daytona Homage on AliExpress. :-)
FIRST TIME IVE EVER SEEN YOUR FACE!! LOL
You need a better suit. Try Brioni.
I have to say that the new back-drop is not as good as the previous studio one. This is just sterile and lacklustre.
Content is just as good as always though. I guess this is progress!
A little constructive criticism if I can... I made it through 15 minutes before I had to stop watching due to the lighting. The constant light reflection off the sapphire crystals was extremely distracting and took away from actually seeing the watches in detail. Seemed like you were fighting the lighting as well. You guys did not have this problem before the new set and I am hoping you'll address it. Thanks.
Royal Oak while beautiful design will go off the boil at some stage and people will get burnt.
I was put off by the thumbnail and title, but I can never NOT watch one of these shows :-))
The value of these watches would pay off the dept of a small country.
Still a shame that the Daytona is so damn small..
Small??
Who actually buys a De Bethune? I can only picture it on a Saudi prince or south american president. No?
I actually have the Db10 Reedition in white gold. amazing piece, even though very different from the more "star trek"-esque models
I THOUGTH YOU LOOK A WAY MORE OLDER....
