Thank you for watching The Urban Gentry channel, home of the #wristwatchcheck ! Check out my other videos for more watch and lifestyle content.
Can’t live without Hugo. He represents innocence, happiness and purity.
What, who and why is Hugo? *Never mind it's the T-Rex
Hoorah!
Dear Gentry,
I hope this finds you all well. I am currently out at a special location shooting footage for your viewing pleasure, so I won’t be able to immediately respond to your comments as I usually do. In my temporary absence, please feel free to help others in that true Gentry spirit of goodwill and positivity. I will check out your comments and respond as soon as I can. Onwards and ever upwards!
Best regards,
TGV
Bloody hell, you've become more British than the Brits. I was surprised a bone china teacup wasn't part of your EDC. 😁
When you have an opportunity to respond I was curious about a collection of automatic Seiko watches I have from the 60’s. I’m taking them in for service and I’m unsure whether to have the dials cleaned and the patina removed or leave the dials as they are. Do you have any thoughts on this? I’m not concerned about the $ value as they are family pieces and I won’t be selling them, should I just have them cleaned and redone or leave them with the patina, scratches and weak lume?
Love the show, really enjoy the passion and knowledge you share: it’s infectious!
Enjoy TGV.
Perhaps something to ponder whilst you commute :
Woody! Good grief the YT algorithms must be in a state if using such a word is of concern.
In any case, I (as a coffee roaster) often have to find words evocative of... less tangible qualities, the elements of smell and taste that are immediately recognisable yet difficult to vocalise.
*'Forrest Floor'* is a good one for the general woodiness of which you spoke, one picks it up in everything from whiskey to wine, from fragrances to coffee.
Maybe worth a note with your Parker?
Dear TGV, I recently discovered you while shopping around for a new watch, and I "absolutely adore" your channel, even though I'm not by any stretch a 'watch collector'. You're going to think I'm a heretic when I tell you I finally ended up buying an Invicta Pro Diver, and being the heretic that I am, I really like it. I've loved Submariners since the first time I saw one as a kid, and I finally decided I'll never live long enough to afford a Rolex, and this is the next best thing.
But that's not really what I'm commenting to you about. About the greatest watch I've ever owned was a Casio Tide Sensor Module 3206--a black-face, A-B-C, tide and moon phase, solar-powered, and set by the atomic clock. I surf, so it's a great watch for me--HOWEVER--this is my problem: The liquid crystal display has got blank spots in it where the crystals don't work anymore. I can barely tell what time it is! And it appears Casio, for some inexplicable reason, has ceased producing these amazing watches.
How do you prevent the LCD from fading on your G-Shocks, or is there even a way to do that. And would you have any idea where I could find another 3206, without the degrading dial problem?
My goodness this is too long--sorry.
Highest Regards, and I hope you have time for a reply, but with almost 400,000 subscribers I honestly don't see how you could;>)
Loved the video! Always look forward to seeing the latest urban gentry uploads. Mediations I'm planning to read this one. Are you planning to give one away? All the best.

I never in a million years would have thought that's what TGV's laptop looks like. 😄 You are full of surprises sir, keep it up!
I was surprised as well.
me either, but i love it! I smiled ear to ear, makes me regret taking all the stickers off of my laptop
There is even a Hello Kitty one. Absolutely love it!
I'm dying!! "In vitro" hahahaha. Love your mistakes TGV and when You forget a word. Makes me laugh at loud. Love your videos :)
Remember the episode with you in the kitchen showing us your coffee making skills The reasons I like your channel so much you so passionate about just about everything you do it’s refreshing Pens movies jewelry etc. You take owning something to a whole new level a lot of thought goes into everything that you have again very refreshing
Every time I hear "Ride of the Valkyries" I can't hep but yell "CHARLIE DON'T SURF"
Amen! Lol!
"I love the smell of movie quotes in the morning!"
Remember: Matter. How tiny your share of it. Time. How brief and fleeting your allotment of it. Fate. How small a role you play in it.

'Woody' is a perfectly acceptable term when it comes to perfumery and refers to the base notes of a fragrance.
You also hear it a lot in 'wine circles': "Woody notes with hints of chalk and chocolate..."
My favorite is “earthy” ....so it tastes like dirt?

9. my wallet ( I have this compact carbon fiber card hold/money clips and it contains all my cards and cash I need )
10. a cutting tool ( anything that cut would be fine to me )

My top two life mantras I'd like to share are:

I half expect him now to make an intro playing «Θα πουλήσω το ρολόϊ και θα πάρω κομπολόϊ» Right? 😁😁😁

My study (where I work) is the same-- I like it that, no matter where I look, there's something interesting (whether my books, a framed map or a die-cast P-40F Warhawk model) to grab my attention and make me happy...

This was terrific TGV. Have to get that Italo Balbo book! What a man. What an aviation legend!
tristano, you are cracking me up 😆 one of the most entertaining videos you‘ve made so far 🤣👍🏼 just a pleasure listening to you talking about random things. thanks for the show and please keep it up.
best from a friend abroad ✌🏼😁🇩🇪
Your video showed clear signs of being a display of *punctilios,* but your *Dionysian* attitude balanced it out well...
(Did I get that right? 😆)
Btw, I am currently going through the series *Westworld* for the first time, and can't wait to get the next season-- I highly recommend it.
As a writer, my opinion is that it's highly entertaining and well-written without *insultng the viewer's intelligence!* (A serious pet peeve of mine...)
Oh yeah, the 10 things I cannot live without (especially when I head out the door) are...
1) Wallet
2) Money Clip
3) Keys
4) knife (currently a Camillus, but I also love my Kershaw Leek)
5) Watch-- lately my G-100 G-shock has been my 'go to'
6) Bushnell Pocket-clip Flashlight
7) Lighter (of some sort)
8) Phone
9) A paper novel of some kind... Batteries may die, but a book will always stand vigil with you...
10) Coffee-- preferably a dark roast of some kind
11) Fisher Space Pen-- the 400 Chrome Bullet
12) Small, un-lined Moleskin writer's notebook/Can also be used as a sketch pad
*O&U!*
Ok, as you asked......in no particular order......1, I agree with you, Lavazza coffee - I’ve been drinking it for 30 years, and nothing comes close, 2, The Beatles - still the most uplifting, inspiring and original band of all time, 3, Alfa Romeo - my favourite cars, 4, Sheaffer No Nonsense fountain pen - I have 3 or maybe 4 - been writing with them since I was 11, and I think they’re perfect writing instruments, 5, CAT dealer boots - rugged, comfortable, well made - can be worn with jeans or a suit, 6, Levi’s jeans - to me, the classic jeans, well made, inexpensive, 7, Harris tweed - I have several tweed blazers - they’re smart, warm, timeless, and work equally well with smart attire or jeans, 8, automatic watches - ok, so I can’t yet afford a high-end watch, but intend to wear automatic or mechanical watches, by Hamilton, Seiko, Bulova and Orient - I love them, they feel special to me, and I love them, 9, vinyl records - I have around 500, and a vintage Thorens turntable - they’re just lovely, finally, 10, my retro Blacks Crystal ‘keyhole’ spectacles - part of my identity, and really good quality. Honourable mentions - Sony PlayStation 1 (as a CD player), Apple IPhone and IPad, Trickers brogues, cuff links - preferably onyx, Fender Rhodes pianos.......
Top ten of a working man
1. Multi tool
2. Flashlight
3. Good knife ( buck 110)
4. Reading glasses
5. Parker pen
6. Notebook
7. Lunchbox of good quality
8. A decent tool watch ( Casio duro)
9. Good quality clothing ( carhartt )
10 . Jesus
Things I can't live without. My dignity for one.
On the topic of Gentry,
For myself, being a gentleman has nothing to do with what one owns or wears and more to do with how one
carries oneself and treats others.
Quick wrist check. Not a Rolex nor an Omega. Rather my new made in Japan Seiko Padi Mini Turtle.
I admire it as the waves on its dial dance in the morning sun. Superb!
Thanks for the horological vids with a philosophical twist!
Love the fact that a knife is apart of you needs... Now with your appreciation of higher end designed horological apparatuses, I think that you need just a small step up in your knife game. I would recommend the Grimsmo Norseman for a bit of eccentric carry, the Rask if you’d much rather a bit more traditional style of carry. You can fall into a pretty deep hole following how these knives were developed and how much craftsmanship goes into them. Incredible works of functional art.
Sir TGV: The Cobain reference: Suskind novel Perfume inspired “Scentless Apprentice” second track of “In Utero” released in 1993. Great video and great stuff as usual - keep it up!
I'm glad you use a Benchmade knife. That company is from my home sate of Oregon.
Really enjoyed the video TGV one of my favourite you have presented, I'm in the process of creating my own home office and have been inspired by your great taste!
One request is please do a more videos including clothing as your wardrobe is so varied.
Cheers!
Kurt Cobain wrote the song Scentless Apprentice after reading Perfume. It was on In Utero.
Very cool video tgv I also have things I can't live without (of course watch is in the list)🙂👍
"My Lagiole or Lagiole depending on what part of France, wichever way i pronounce it, the other half has a go at me"
XD
Greetings from France!
An stoic mindset is something every man should embrace.
The book has a medititatative qualalitatally. 😂
Things only in no particular order: HCSB Bible, Ruger SR1911 in 9mm, Wagner 9" cast iron skillet, wedding ring, jazz iTunes collection, CRKT Ken Onion Hootenanny knife, Springfield Armory 911, LG Stylus phone, Scotty Cameron Newport putter, Casio GBA-800.
Can’t live without my GS and Tudor ... lol
Man, if i only knew that you were here in Istanbul. I would be delighted to keep you company throughout your time here.
Next time, hopefully...
Thanks TGV for this very interesting video!
Your list contains a few things which invented into my life cause of your videos: watches 😎👍, coffee (Lavazza & Hausbrandt - from Trieste), knifes (thanks for the recommendation of Opinel years ago, i wear a Opinel No. 6 + a Leatherman), Notebooks (had my big hunt for a suitable brand last year, found Moleskine), Ball Pens (Parker Jotter!! I love it so much! 😀).
In a list of priorities:
1. Watches
2. Coffee
3. Parker Jotter + Notebooks
4. Knives
Adding all obvious things like:
5. Money (should be no. 1 😂)
6. A place to live
7. Family
8. Health
9. Sleep
10. Smartphone
TGV has gone further up in my estimation as someone who is to be admired for his taste, or should I say lack of it.
I have great respect for people who have a healthy disregard for fashion and in this instance, I refer to those white shoes.
Entertaining, as always! TGV, I tend to think of your show as being more Apollonian. But the allusion to Ducktails and “swimming in watches” is a bit Dionysian. So bravo, sir!
1. Joy Division
2. Football (that’s soccer btw)
3. Watch
4. Notebook and pen
5. Swiss Army Knife
6. Olight torch
7. London A to Z
8. Carharrt Chinos
9. Plain Black Sweatshirts
10. Nespresso machine
I love your style Steve,
VERY cool, thank you for sharing.
Best regards,
TGV
Another great presentation. Nice to share a glimpse into your life. It certainly brightens my day. Hypnotic almost.
Excellent video TGV.. Simple but good idea.. Mine would be Hairbrush, Good Coat , Loafers, Rings, Watch, Music, A Woman, Car, A Purpose , Friendship 👌🏻 BMJ ENGLAND 🏴
Wish I lived closer to Philly: we'd get along swimmingly and have a ton to talk about (Certainly the Wagner and the Meditations!) :)
Outside things, I actually can't live without, like oxygen, maybe:
1. PC computer.
2. Music playing equipment, first and foremost record player.
3. Books
4. Guitar
5. Woodworking handtools
6. Camera
7. Induction stowe
8. Motorcycle
9. Headlamp
10. Gore-Tex
And a dog. "All you need in life is a dog and a diver" -teeg
What about oxygen?
@@PanAM88 and steak
One of the best vocabulary books I've ever been exposed to is "Word Power Made Easy". My high school English teacher would drill us relentlessly using this book. Only years later (when in college) did I discover the source of our "college prep vocab nightmares".....but those words are still with me 35 years later. Great vid, sir!
I can't live without knowing I haven't watched a TGV video!
I too, carry a knife on person 24/7. But I picked up the habit as a consequence of a decade in prison. Never had to use it, thank God. But I always say, "better to have and not need, than to need but not have". A bit psychotic, I know, but iam working on it.
Never knew you had a thing for Komboloi. A friend and I've been playing with those for ages. Way better than a fidget spinner
TGV, you need to do another of the old chap what! Updated for 2024 naturally
Verify the Fontenille-Pataud Gilles Thiers knifes sure you will appreciate, a good mix between old style guilloché and miror finishes with some edc style...
Might suggest :
- a tiger eye bracelet.
If you have European/Italian roots then you must be forgetting :
- the birth/baptism medal, mine never quited me since I was baptized....
- a dupont lighter.
- proper leather soled shoes (Lobb, church's, john's...)
1. Computer (Dell)
2. Phone (Samsung)
3. Watch (Seiko 5 SNXS77K, Citizen BD 2001-e (I think) and a G Shock)
4. Pen and notebook (Fisher Space Pen Bullet)
5. Glasses
6. Pinky ring
7. Headphones
8. Bracelet my mother made for me
9. Water
10. Family photo
Simply double espresso in the morning. Unadulterated black of course. Wine and single malt preferred if available or a good blend.
it seems like the lady behind the camera is the brains of this channel. TGV is just the pretty face haha
Regarding the fragrance, other words that may replace “woody” are “sylvan” and “arboraceous”.
Actually, "woodsy" was the perfect word in this context.
Well here in Miami, Fl aside of my watch, signet ring, Mont Blanc fountain pen , matching pocket square on my jacket my Ruger LCP .380 pocket pistol is an essential piece of my daily kit.
1 coffee 2 iPhone 3 iPad 4 watch 5 whey protein 6 silver chain 7 Bible 8 drum kit 9 guitar 10 last but first, my beautiful wife!!! Fun video. Who was your helper? Mrs. TGV? SEIKO IS KING!!!
Ticking all the correct boxes TGV, your very well spoken sir 😊👍🇮🇹
I missed the art screen savers, great collection.
This video is eerily applicable to my passed couple of days... I've been expanding my EDC collection with a new mini torch (I regularly work night shifts), a Spyderco Para 3 and a G-shock GA-2100.
Looking forward to the next one.
Regards,
Koen
Awesome video. Keep up the good work.
13:50 the word is actually "aura of wood", so rather than saying it has a "woody" smell, you can say that it is earthy/ has an aura of wood to it.
T, Looking good mate. Nice lil vid. Best as always. Matthew
Thank you number 1.
I hope all is well.
O&U!
Best regards,
TGV
Hi TGV
Thanks for all your great videos.
We followed your recommendation to read the book Meditations by Marcus Aurelius and met physically in a small study group just before the corona lockdown, after which we switched to online meetings that works well and provide the opportunity to meet more often and talk about the book.
The book surprises with how much Aurelius already at that time knew about humans and the universe about 2,000 years ago. He writes, among other things, about death, and what role it plays on a universal level. In our opinion these are thoughts that would be beneficial for every modern human being to read and think about.
Aurelius' thoughts on the human soul and its place in the greater cosmos are magnificent. And from that he provides advice on how people can best interact with each other on a daily basis, both in thought and in deed. It is truly a coherent and usable worldview.
Thank you very much for your book recommendation and we also encourage others to read this gold nugget of a book.
Greetings from small Denmark in the big universe :-)
Meditations is brilliant.i bought it randomly years ago and found it amazing in its ancient yet still applicable knowledge..the navi on a bracelet is graaaaand
Hi TGV. I have to say, I always enjoy your EDC/ GQ videos, given I find them inspirational and a lot of fun. It’s quite obvious to me that you enjoyed filming this one which makes it even more entertaining. Those items we all hold dear to ourselves really do make life more enjoyable. I’m now marking down on my list to purchase a paperback version of Meditations. Seeing you speak so highly of the benefits of it on a number of occasions has convinced me of its value. Good to see you so happy and well. O & U to the Gentry and your good self my friend. Keep up the great entertainment and inspiration.🙏🏻
A block of good formaggio Parmigiano, a tin of Darjeeling tea and a watch I enjoy are luxuries I like to have. DiscoFalcon listed what all people can't live without. BTW, who was behind the camera?
Can't live without....Lord, Wife, Liberty, the pursuit of Happiness, and the Blessings I've received.
I should really get to reading Meditations. I have it in audiobook format, but after several attempts of listening to it before I go to sleep, I realized that I would absorb it better if it comes in written form.
My list (please note that these are "comfort items" and are in no way crucial to my existence :))
1. A watch - for time keeping. I tend to check my watch when someone asks me the time, even if I'm holding my phone and could easily check the time widget. (my curent collection is somewhat limited and made of gifts, so I does not necessarily reflect my taste in watches, but the gifts were well intended, so I cherish them )
2. Slim fit clothing - I'm tall and slim... other tall and slim guys know my plight.
3. Cologne (Hugo, Montblack, or Str8...) - people treat you different if you smell good ... troubling, but nonetheless a fact of life... at least where I'm from.
4. Shoe polish of some sorts - same as above, just switch the smell factor with the look of a well kept shoe
5. Badger hair hairbrush - try it... trust me... you will thank me.
6. Mouthwash or mints - because that garlic sauce tasted great, but my coworkers don't have to smell it.
7. My French press and/or Mocha Pot - when brewed properly, coffee is a great pick me up. Same goes for tea.
8. Understanding and patience for the human condition - because sanity is important.
If you like Marcus Aurelius' Meditations, then you might also like Massimo Pigliucci's book (a Roman by the way), "How to be a stoic" which will fill out more of ancient Stoic philosophy in a very approachable way. Modern Stoicism is taking off world wide (just Google it).
Tristano, do not miss the Deutsche Grammophon Robert Schumann Box as well if you enjoyed the Wagner one! There you will find the full Dramatic poem by Lord Byron, Manfred, with Schumann´s music at his peak. Pure XIX century. Regards!
1. Bally Messenger & Man Bag.
2. Watch Collection.
3. Family.
4. My Dog.
5. Coffee & Coffee Gadgets.
6. Porsche Collection.
7. Photos.
8. Pen 🖊 & Notebook 📓.
9. Wine 🍷 Collection.
10. Book 📚 Collection.
Hey there! I'm Greek! And it's so cool that you mentioned the komboloi! I never thought ide see it anywhere in a video! That was fun to see you enjoying it! Youre a great host!
My favourite edc and UrbanGentry video of the past 12 months. I think every gentleman should have a “top 10 essentials” list. Great video.
Still waiting for that cameo from the wife. #mrsTGVwatch2020
Is this the illusive Mrs TGV in the background? You should do a full Q&A with Mrs TGV asking the questions
the 4 watch collection though .. man.. hehehe.. 👌 I remember flying Delta in the 80s as a kid, customs officer finds a victorinox in my pocket.. just laughs, shakes his head and hands it back to me ... mom and dad lighting up on the plane.. visiting the pilots in the cockpit and getting your own set of wings .. now the TSA collects mountains of pocket knives every year..
That coffee making video was how I discovered your channel 😄
Wow, swimming in bubble wrapped watches actually seems like a lot of fun lmao
I think putting the watches inside clear ball cases would be the way to go if you plan to swim in them...
I would like to petition the release of your list regarding what makes a gentleman. I have made a similar list in the past, and would be very interested to see other perspectives.
Tere's no mention of color-coordinating your pocket pen(s) in the Gentleman's etiquette books., but "Gold" is mentioned.
TGV: "shoutout to Capoplaza"
me: *inizia a pensare a TGV trappando*
AHAHAHAHAH oddio ugualeeeeee!!!!
😂😂🇮🇹
You say to dress your age, that's a tough one if you look really young. If you are more mature than you look, what do you do in that case? Oh and thanks to you TGV and your great passion with watches! Just added a new Seiko to my small watch collection. My current collection is: Casio Protrek PRG 250B, Casio G-Shock 3229, Citizen Eco-Drive/Chronograph and my new Seiko Prospex Solar/Chrono (SSC761J1) 👌 ( A vault of watches wrapped in bubble wrap would be awesome hahah)
Fantastic video!. Was wondering, have you done a video on the world of custom Seiko watches? If not, could this be on the cards? It's something I'm eager but sceptical to get into.
Loved this video. Back to the roots! Thanks TGV
Thank you Zachary, I am glad you got it!
Onwards and upwards.
Best regards,

The new Thielmann Lohengrin was a grammy nominee. And if you like Wagner, you should read Nietzche's book on Wagner and the other one on Dionysian and Appollonian, since you like the word Dionysian. (The birth of tragedy)
