    Apologies for being late to comment on this one. LOVE LOVE LOVE the collection and your explanations behind them. My faves has to be that Tag, the Casios and that Seiko 5. But the Omega really is top. Pure class. Happy new year and keep up the wonderful videos. O&U!

    I think that tag is a great example of how important personal fit is for enjoyable wear. It looks like the perfect bracelet fit and case size for you and it’s so thin while still being robust.

    Tag Heuer was an iconic brand for me as a 90s teenager, because of the strong relationship with formula1 as an official timekeeper for many years . Recently I managed to buy a vintage midsize formula 1 watch, you know these colorful little watches with the plastic bezels I always wanted and I'm super happy. I even bought a second one 2000 series midsize. Yes, TAG Heuer is an icon for my generation what can I say!

    @jordanporter5833 6 месяцев назад +1

    I've built a decent collection over the past two years. I've focused mostly on smaller brands but I noticed that as my collection grew, I didn't need or want certain watches anymore. I've given watches to my best friend, my nephews and even donated watches. I do have two watches in my collection that I haven't worn because they're gifts and I don't wanna be A dick and give them away (one being a Tissot Classic Dream with a black dial). But I like my collection. My most worn watches are my Orient Neo70 Solar Panda, Seiko 5 SNXS73K, Tissot PRX Green Dial, and G-Shock (I've had this watch for the past 12 years and I've just replaced the battery for the first time since receiving it. Very reliable watch)
    Also, I bought my wife a tag heuer 2000 just so she can have a decent luxury watch.

    I really like Phoibos but I want my watches with a serious logo - not something that is more suited to a kid's toy... but maybe that's just me. Anyway if they ditch the logo and improve the clasp, I'll give them another look.

    • @TopTierTicker

  • @brian6290
    @brian6290 5 месяцев назад +1

    Your collection is really varied in styles and colours. Often in someone's collection, you'll see a particular favourite brand or style, but it's difficult to see that in yours. (Maybe military watches?)

    • @TopTierTicker
      @TopTierTicker  5 месяцев назад

      It's a bit jumbled because of all the review pieces. Once you start making reviews it's hard to keep a watch collection that is fully my own. This will be something I look to change in 2024. I'm hoping to develop a 6-8 piece core collection that's separate from my review watches.
      I value vintage, historical and original design pieces. So, hopefully next years SOTC will reflect that.
      Appreciate the comment mate, thanks for sparking my enthusiasm!

      It's really not that hard to understand... I don't like homage watches that are completey stolen desings. I don't like watches that are a 1 for 1 copy of another model.
      You and others seem to think that ANY element that even resembles another watch is a homage. This is not the case.

      @drdesign6886 6 месяцев назад

      @@TopTierTicker dude I am not fussed on what is or isn’t a homage. If a watch is legal then it should be end of conversation. To have some personal subjective rules on what makes a homage is somewhat gatekeeping (when you keep stating it online). If you need to make a video on it then it’s clear it’s a very subjective thing.
      We can all agree fakes/replicas are bad form. Nothing subjective there. Stick to that and let everyone else enjoy what they want without criticism.
      Ironically I don’t actually buy homages myself - I did early in my collecting - a Steinhart or 2. Not so much because they are somehow morally questionable - but more I started spending more money on my watches (big mistake!!!). That’s why I’d never be critical of them - because it’s essentially gatekeeping what ppl can buy and own who cannot afford certain brands. If you like the look of a sub and can’t afford it then go nuts and buy a Steinhart or a San Martin. All above board. If you can afford the Rolex then also go nuts -but don’t tell others they can’t own the look for less - they can.

    @jaydub9509 4 месяца назад

    Sorry for the late response. That is a well considered collection! Your preference for lightweight slim watches mirrors mine. I was thinking you might get more wrist time out of the Tissot if you upgraded the strap. While you might be attached to it for sentimental reasons, I suspect that a high end leather in a dark color could make that watch feel more elegant and special.

    • @TopTierTicker
      @TopTierTicker  4 месяца назад

      I did think about that. But, if I drop £50+ on a 19mm strap for it, and I still don't find myself wearing it, I'm stuck with a random 19mm strap 😂

If I was you, with your wrist, I would have just saved for as long as it took, and then bought maybe a Tudor Black Bay 58. One and done, but half decent. Don't get me wrong, there a place for affordable watches - I have a Casio AE-1200, and I bought a nice Vario strap for it, it cost peanuts, and I do like really it. But I also have proper hard hitting watches, like for example, the Polar Explorer II and a 15500 Royal Oak. The Explorer will put up with anything, I never have to worry about it getting damaged, and anything bad can be fixed. The AP is a delicate thing of, frankly, immense beauty - it's for special moments when I can take very good care of it. The satisfaction level that these watches give me is off the scale. Yes, they are expensive, and I had to wait for them, but I'll get my money back - all of it - and more, if I ever need it. There is an heirloom quality watch for every budget, and we can all join a list and save for a couple of years. It's really worth it if you love watches.

      I get you, that's how the watch game works. It's a ladder.
      I'm taking it slowly. I had the opportunity to pick up a speedy in 2023, but decided to wait. What's the rush!? I'm 27. Hopefully I have another 40 years of enjoying watches.
      My collection will eventually evolve into some bigger pieces. But I'm not going to force it. I'm enjoying the journey, slowly making my way through what's on offer.
      But I certainly won't be buying a BB58. Incredibly boring. I'll almost certainly go with something vintage, even when I do decide to take the next jump up in value. That's what I value and appreciate with the hobby.

      @@TopTierTicker I respect that. We are just not the same. If you were given a chance to buy a speedy, in good condition and at a fair price, and - crucially, if you could comfortably afford it - then I don't understand your reluctance to buy it. It might have been a game-changer for you. To me, the only downside of you being young - I'm 64 - is that you might not be ready to protect your good watches from theft. When I was you're age, I had a Cartier Santos I bought when I was working in Saudi Arabia, and being well paid, and I bought a Tag Heuer on a visit to Hong Kong. They were both stolen because I was young, inexperienced and made bad decisions. I have better watches now, but I take care - I even have a safe deposit box at the bank. My message is this: Stretch yourself, every time you buy a cheap watch you are losing money that could be better spent on real quality, on watches that - if you are patient enough to join a list, and if you choose wisely - will gain in value, as well as give you so much pleasure. Don't go too slow - you could be hit by a bus tomorrow. But I do wish you good luck, and a pleasurable watch journey.

      I appreciate the advise. I will remember when when I do get something big.
      Regarding the wasting money part, that's actually completely incorrect. I've made profit on almost every single watch I've purchased. I'm a northerner, I'll always find the bargains.
      I also appreciate the don't go too slow comment, I do sometimes feel that maybe I am. But I'll be picking up something big this month, to celebrate my birthday, 20k subscribers and a full year of making these videos consistently. Likely a seamaster professional 300.
      I'll never turn my nose up at affordable pieces though. There are some real hidden gems out there that offer something no big brand can do. And that's the area I try and explore with my affordable reviews.
      Anyway, appreciate your time and advise. Take care for now

    There's no such things as a 'Royale' - Casio don't hang nicknames on their watches ok.

      @@TopTierTicker LOL, nah, I'll just try to erase my memory about that aspect of the watch, it looks gorgeous in red so I'll stick with it. I'm not into football, so it's not as if I'm associating the colour with a team that I am actively opposed to! It is as you quite rightly say, one of the better looking red dials out there! The only comparable one I think is the Seiko Cocktail Time 'Negroni'. Now trying to decide between a Kamasu OR a German World War 2 vintage DH watch......Can't afford both right now.

      I ended up going for the German DH watch......Saw a really nice Doxa example from 1945, it's had a replacement crystal, and possibly a replacement crown, but other than that it's apparently all original, and works like a dream. Less than Plus 20 seconds per day, which in my view absolutely bloody amazing for a 79 year old watch. Even got the name of the previous owner scratched onto the caseback which is a nice extra touch......Nothing obviously fake (doesn't say H Göring LOL).

    You have a couple of “inspired” homage watches in your collection.. I think it’s time you stop ragging on people who buy homage watches. If it tells the time and you like it, it a good watch!

    • @TopTierTicker
      @TopTierTicker  6 месяцев назад

      I don't rage on about them, I've talked about how I prefer original design watches.
      I'll say the same thing I always have, I see why people collect them, I respect what they offer.
      And I'll even dabble myself now and then with them. But I do think there's a big difference between a genuine homage and a clomage. I'll never like a 1 for 1 submariner 'homage'.
      Watches that take a popular design and change something, even as little as the colours, passes the test.
      I will say, I have softened to them over time. I just think that watches with an original design, brands who invest in research and development, take risks with designs, deserve our attention and money. That won't change.
