    I saw some of the comments on the last video you narrated and they were just downright unfair. It was nice for Tom to do the last few, but I can already hear you improving your narration with each video, I imagine you're still finding your voice - keep at it Jack! (oh, and nice watches too)

    This was the first Watchfinder that I watched from start to finish since the departure of Mr. Hands. It kept my attention for the full 7 plus minutes! As for the constant drone of complaints, I get it. But here's the funny thing. When Mr. Hands started showing his handsome face, everyone complained. When Tom and Mr. Hands did the podcast format, everyone complained. Now we are back to a format that is most like the original Watchfinder videos: macros, music and manos. This is what people said that they missed so much pre-FaceTime and podcast...and now I understand why watch brands ignore you jackwagons.
    Keep going. You guys will get your riddim, hit your stride. I'll be here to watch.

    Hi Jack , always interesting to see someone's collection and the history behind it. Nice one here !!
    For your next watch .. maybe a dressy one with a little extravagance that sets it apart. A moonphase complication (Longines or JLC) or a cartier tank. But an ORIS big crown pointer date could easily fit as well (in bronze would add diversity to the materials as well in this collection).

    This first few videos were a bit shaky, Andrew definitely left some big shoes to fill. This video was already a lot better, we'd like to get to know you Jack, and we don't expect you to be Andrew, just lean into your own style. Don't worry about the watches you sold, it was for a good cause. Who knows, they might just find their way back to you.
    Also for anyone complaining about the difference, I feel like you either forgot some of the early videos or weren't here long enough, but Andrew also grew into his style and way of presenting. Give Jack room to do the same and be his own.

  • @michaelgunney1183

    P.S I think you should add another diver and a modern field watch. Suggestions would be a Doxa Sub. And for the field watch, maybe SWC Ark. or something from the Boldr range. I’d also recommend the Citizen Chandler which is a cracking little solar field watch I own personally.

    Ofcourse, watching this chanel was the magic of the voice of Andrew, the talking hands. His face and identity was a mistery. It was a big hit for many years, but you can’t continue the same formula for ever. Now Andrew has his own channel, still great to watch, but a little less magic than before.
    It think Andrew is gifted with a great, almost hypnotic voice, and im not even a native English speaker but a Dutchy. But when you keep doing the same thing over and over again, that magic will be lost anyway. So, welcome the new, and stop wining about the past!!!

    Nice gathering of ticking gizmos. Forget the IWC and the Rolex and do your best to get another Polaris. That is a hell of a watch for a reasonable price preowned. And, if I may, considering the various price range, a Maen Manhattan 37 would do a great impression amongst the others. I have one and I must admit it, for that price it is really a stunner. Or any Studio Underd0g, for what I am concerned. Climbing a little the price stair I do genuinely think a Paul Picot Yachtman is a great bargain. Beware of dimensions: 43 mm in diameter but a proper diver, chunky and opulent, and the best eye catching bracelet I've ever seen.
    Edit: Yes. I do wrote opulent. 😊

      @@mrparkx2 I do own a Maen Manhattan 37 and what I wrote is real. For me at least. Light, elegant, thin, a perfect integrated dress watch but that doesn't hate to be dressed down, the case finishing is really good (for the price) and gives that premium whiff that the PRX struggle a lot to get, the dial is well thought and the stripes catches light with a nice effect yet remaining readable. The only downside, is the bracelet, well done and finished, but a little bit on the too much slim side for me. To be honest it blends perfectly with the case, but I would have liked to be a tad beefer. Accuracy is good, but please note I keep it in rotation with others so it doesn't bother me if it lose or gain some seconds per day. For what I am concerned it had never disappointed me, runs smooth and reliably. After all, the Sellita 200 inside is a proven workorse. And if you are patient enough you can do real bargains on the second market. I wrote patient because there are not so much for sale, who has it will keep it or sell it for near brand new prices.
