    Any watch video Kevin is in, it exudes snobbery. Gives the watch community a bad reputation. Thats why i really enjoy your content. No snobbery at all, just love for watches. Keep it up my man. Created an account on WC a couple months ago and i absolutely love the app. Ive learned so much. Keep going!

    A great dual but I have to say the store guy crushed it. So great to see someone selling watches who actually knows his stuff. Nice :)

    Gabe is the best! Glad to see him and the Timeworks crew getting some attention. It's true, the crew there really do know watches.

      Most watch places I would feel uncomfortable going to because of my appearance but I feel like I would be right at home in this place

    I’d have to say the sale person crushed it. I’d love to have a store like this in my area. Great duel in a 4 watch budget.

    I was there in May and I can say the staff were watch people. I wore a vintage Omega watch and it was a pleasure discussing a wide range of watches.

    Wow, being close to Seattle, I think I'll need to put this place on by radar. This is quite neat. Also the staff member's pick for the globemaster was stunning!

    Gabe definitely won, but im shocked there was not a single rotating bezel on either collection.

    Great video Max. This Shop is 5 minutes from my house which is trouble. I almost left there 2 weeks ago with the Longines GMT and the GS SBGA413 Four seasons Spring Dial in pink. You're right, the entire staff are huge watch nerds. Love that place. Great video. Also, saw one of your coworkers M. Preston about 6 months ago. Great guy but not a watch geek like us.

  • @rodsalvador3608

    Love this. My home store! I've been here a half dozen times or so. Have my eye on the Oris Big Crown Roberto Clemente edition. The SBGM221 + the Speedy for just above 10k is such a KILLER 1-2 watch combo. Personally I give this face-off to Max.

  • @scott7841
    @scott7841 Год назад +5

    I agree, I would have to pick the store guy's collection 1)IWC Mark XX 2) Grand Seiko SBGE285 3) Casio Mudmaster and 4) Longines Flagship. Btw- I learned something in this video. It appears the IWC Mark XX (green dial) is now available at ADs (versus a boutique item only). This must have just happened.

    • @evillead1989
      @evillead1989 Год назад

      Literally just happened a few weeks ago. Let's hope the Ingenuir (sp) does the same

  • @derosa1989
    @derosa1989 Год назад

    Fun video! I'd really like to see some close ups and wrist shots of the IWC Mark XX silver dial, the one they're calling the 75th anniversary. Everywhere seems to have the same PR photos.

    I'm gonna go with Watch Crunch option. That Omega White dial pops and had my eye at my AD. I can't buy anything for a while though. Just bought a Vacheron Constantin and Rolex Datejust 41 Mother of Pearl before Rolex quietly took it off the website.

    Sorry Max but you got beaten! A beautiful mark xx, the mistflake a crazy tank of a Casio and the smartest pick which was the GS quartz. Amazing pick
    You should add the red g shock to your koleksyawwn

    Great selections by both! I'd go with Hamilton 38 Murph: $870, Omega Seamaster 300 Heritage: $6,700, Grand Seiko SBGY011: $8,100, and Longines Spirit: $3,050

    • @waynesellers4078

  • @michaelniemer4449
    @michaelniemer4449 Год назад

    Both great efforts, but I am a sucker for dive watches. While the Gshocks will get’er done, they lack the satisfying click of the unidirectional bezel. So, my vote is that you have to do it again!

    Starting with your collection, I would exchange your G-Shock square with the Mud-master, and your Grand Seiko with the IWC Mk XX 👍😊

  • @thegorn
    @thegorn Год назад +20

    The store worker won for sure. The red Casio wtf - fashion nightmare. The Grand Seiko dress piece has a ghastly maroon strap and just looks bad. The Hamilton has a ghastly greenish fungus color and the speedmaster with its sunken hand-wound crown is completely unusable from a practical standpoint. Chad store worker vs virgin WatchCrunch

    • @khazelnut
      @khazelnut Год назад +5

      I think having something out of left field makes it more interesting. If everybody's collećtions are just mute and conventional it's gonna be fairly boring. If I see someone has a speedmaster or Rolex sub, I wouldn't look twice because that's always the safest choice.

    Utilizing this store’s options, I would go Hamilton Intramatic Automatic Chrono Panda $2K retail(Chronograph), Longines Zulu Time GMT 39mm on the bracelet Slate gray/green bezel $3150(GMT), Omega Aqua Terra 150m blue face crock strap 41mm $5400(dress), Grand Seiko Spring Drive Diver SBG461 steel and steel bracelet $6100(diver).
