I know this is a crazy pick but I love my green Cartier santos large. A lot of people think it’s a little too fancy but it really is a perfect everyday, every occasion watch. 10 bar, simple and straight forward movement with date, and the green is perfect for a pop of color. It’s also a strap (albeit expensive) monster. I feel many people just overlook it because the brand name screams snooty. I have decently taken it swimming!
I wanted to like the aquaracer but the piece I saw (which was a "for sale" and not "demo" unit), the seconds hand didn't line up with the indices when ticking. Not something you expect at that price point. Love that Bvlgari though!
We've had nothing but good things to say about the Aquaracer, but as always, things can go wrong - but they're also easily fixed! Glad you liked the Bulgari as well, its not something you see everyday! - Martin
Really great picks. Martin's approach leaned more on versatile sport/ "practicality" watches, but had great picks due to all titanium watches. More like a weekend active person. Bernard for me wins, he went all out in terms of sport type watches - carbon case with the FXD and mostly rubber straps. More ideal if you really are more on adventurous side. Really interesting approaches on both sides overall. I like to wear my Explorer 40 and Polar Explorer 2 on Nato when I go hiking, climb mountains, cycling, and even play tennis. And then I like to wear my blue Zenith Defy Extreme diver on the rubber strap when I'm out in the water.
Martin's not gonna be happy to hear that I won out in the end! You've got a couple of great active watches yourself! Thanks for watching, and stay tuned for more! - Bernard
@@AdityaKhorana It’s definitely worth trying it in person. When it was released, it didn’t really resonate with me, but I was in Watches and Wonders this year and got to try it in person and I was surprised the it became a day one purchase for me. It’s wearable due to being titanium, but some are conflicted with the thickness. I do notice it more when I wear it in the nato. The overall design is definitely divisive - too loud for some, but overall it resonated with me. It’s not really intended for desk diving - not super versatile and intended to be outdoors.
Gentlemen, I had never heard of your channel, RUclips just basically selected this vid based on my likes. However, 5 1/2 min into this video and you haven't shown a single of the 6 watches on the table and you have mentioned 3 times you are wearing a Breitling Endurance...I really wanted to like this video but lost all interest...
Same they did everything they could to not keep out attention on the topic. Seemed like they much rather just have a conversation between themselves then talking to us
Yup not one single watch that actually good for an active lifestyle. These are all choices for people that want to look like they are trying to fool people.
Enjoying these videos....keep them coming!
Thanks mate! Stay tuned for more!

Great to see watches used everyday! Thanks for watching, stay tuned for more! - Martin
Neat to see some less seen watches! Thanks for showing them. Looking forwards to more
Thanks for watching, we always try to show stuff off the beaten track! More to come! - Martin

@@Kbo513 how do you like the zenith? Been wanting to pull the trigger on the black dial variant but can't justify it at present.
Thanks for your kind words. I've been lucky to enjoy quite a fair bit of the watch world hence why I went more wilder. Thanks for watching us!!

This video is awesome. My only recommendation is learning the names of the Swiss watches, as they are not pronounced "Brightlieng and Howar".
Thanks for watching! Maybe its our Aussie accents, but we'll keep that in mind for next time! - Martin

Very good feedback. Will take that onboard for the next one. Thanks for the detailed input, and honestly, thank you for those tips!
Hey mate, thanks for the feedback! We'll take that on board for the next one! - Martin
