Can we see video series on what tool watches professionals love to use in their fields? Firemen, soldiers, police, mountain climbers, snowboarders, survivalists, surfers, divers, etc. etc.
G shock: Mudmaster, Frogman, Gravity Master, Rangeman (New), Rangeman (regular). Those would be my go to picks for professional tool watches. Not much else that can really beat that tbh.
When I was active duty, in my profession we were issued watches for the field. They were mechanical but not automatic. They were designed without parts that would trigger an IEDs. But you had to wind it every day. I can’t remember the brand. Most other guys just wore G-Shocks of varying styles. Some higher ranking offices would have high end pieces like Rolex, but that’s their personal preference.
Interesting! I live near Wal Mart headquarters and I have noticed that as long as Sam was around, the executives lived modestly. Once he was gone the big houses, watches, boats, etc. showed up.
Toyoda Kiichiro the founder of Toyota once wrote or said how winding a watch everyday bring you into a harmonious connection with the watch, and that being able to care for your car should generate the same harmonious connection with it. This was reprinted a couple of years ago in 'Toyota Magazine' (the free magazine they have in dealerships or send out if you have a service plan) when talking about why even today you get a toolkit with every new Toyota. So perhaps that is why his grandson wears a mechanical watch. Perhaps the Patek even was his grandfathers. btw the current Toyota emblem is three ovals, once representing the customer, one representing the company inside a third representing the two existing together in harmony. To go back to the founders analogy.
I noticed a few guys are surprised that are surprised that the Japanese CEO is not wearing a Seiko but not surprised that all the America CEOs are not wearing Hamilton’s or Timex’s
American watches are rubbish as all of their products like phones, cars, food, etc. Japan/swiss watches are the only two countries that make serious watches
Here is the summary. :) Morgan Stanley CEO - Rolex Daytona 116520 Toyota CEO - Patek Phillippe Calatrava Microsoft CEO - Breitling Colt Automatic Walmart CEO - Citizen Skyhawk Amazon CEO - Ulysse Nordin Dual Time
found out your channel a couple months ago, immediately binged watching almost everything. love the content. you deserve far more recognition. keep it up, brother.
Expected that as well but on the other hand rich German guys don't only wear Lange & Söhne and rich guys from Switzerland can wear an expensive French, German or Japanese watch as well.
The publicist of the company also recommend what kind of watch they should wear - it is all part of board of directors coaching , styling and projecting a certain image, especially in official capacities. Thank you
There is a good reason for this. They have high status, and so don't need to wear watches to promote and advertise their status. It is the status seekers, who want to project an image higher than they are, who wear the more expensive watches.
Hi Teddy. I'm enjoying this series. How about what CEOs in the arts wear? The heads of museums, galleries, orchestras et al. Have you done famous artists yet? What did Dali wear? Warhol? Pollock?
@@TeddyBaldassarre I wonder if those kind of minds would just pick a watch out of convenience or put thought into the watch they wear.. It is known those kind of people are into hidden messages...

I wonder how many of these billionaires made their own choices of watches??? probably they got them from friends or business associates. Just wonder that who really are watch addicts and knows what they are wearing.
Probably the Walmart CEO with the watch for 300-600 dollars. I personally understand him completely. You may have a 200 dollar wtach but jump 40 years latter and that cheap model will be known as the watch of(insert name here). If you have such a high sentiment for an object you got from your first scolarship, or the first money you earned, it will stick with you even when you become succesful. The expensive 50 000 dollar watches will be awesome but they won't be your watch, the watch that helped you not be late for that crucial exam in your 4th year, and latter the watch which helped you not be late for your first date with your future wife. Such things add important sentiment.
nice segue, Teddy 😂 enjoyed this video and the live one in the group, too! hope you'd do another one because I missed out on asking some questions earlier 😭 haha
U just can’t beat RUclips. I’m sitting here on my toilet dropping a Duce and learning this interesting watch knowledge. 20 years ago this would of been unheard of. What will we be doing in 20 years?
Hey, Teddy. I checked out your straps on your website. They look gorgeous. A concern of mine is I didn't see any information as to where the straps are produced. For those of us concerned with buying ethical products, that information is essential prior to a purchase. If only the Teddy's Guarantee included a commitment to ethically produced straps in addition to your commitment to high-quality products.
Totally understand this. The straps are either manufactured in France or in China. I am working with a few different manufacturers on these original releases and tried to balance quality and affordability with these initial products. Happy to answer any other questions or concerns regarding this.
@@TeddyBaldassarre Thanks, Teddy. As a consumer I'm just looking for some sort of assurance that the straps were produced ethically. Any kind of transparency would be helpful. Not sure what ethical certifications there are for products such as watch accessories but some stamp of approval that ethical standards were followed or disclaimer about measures taken by the manufacturer etc.
Pretty sure He could get Patek to do a limited one of one piece for him , but he doesn't .. or maybe he has but isn't wearing that one on public occasions
This is a good video. Almost never watched it. Would've lost a million dollars betting on Toyota's watch. Figured it would be a Seiko. Was humbled by Doug McMillans choice though. Thumbs up for Walmart. Nice job Teddy
i love most watches,except the diamond encrusted stuff..each unto their own i suppose. but with the Walmart CEO watch,those busy watches are often used by people who do actually use them. not ALL....but a lot do,especially divers(who do light recreation diving for eg)speed guys who time their cars for various reasons,pilots (not saying his watch is used for that reason)but chronographs are also known for their hardiness as well,here i am with a Timex,19 years old and as a motor mechanic,i work with it on all the time.wash grease off with grit handwash and just doesnt stop!!!!!!!!!!! only one light scratch. hit it with a hammer once or twice or more by accident,swim with it on,still keeps chugging along. but love seeing the different watches out the...love them, great video and just subbed.
Thank you for being more informative of the individual as well as the size, movement, and price of the watch. I really would like to see more of these. Possibly celebrities, athletes and other public figures. Maybe even powerful figures in the early 1900’s who wore the vintage watches we love so much before they were vintage.
Great livestream, another possible content expansion plan could be going to events like Basel World (or other events that are more realistic for your current situation).
All of these people are business people and they understand the power of their own brand. They buy quality and value. Too little watch would raise questions about their commitment to personal appearance, too much watch would be off-putting to their shareholders, customers and employees. They are practical people. The Richest man in the world, Bill Gates, wears a Casio. He's making a statement that he's so rich he doesn't care what you think. Dragon's Den Kevin O'Leary wears quality watches with a Red band, because that is his brand and he understands that he is in the entertainment business. That business requires high profile, instantly recognizable branding and his red strapped Rolex Hulk, garish as it might be, is a fantastic testament to his marketing genius. It is bold, garish, unapologetic, and instantly recognizable.
Like the one on presidents, this was an interesting video!! I'd love to see another video about higher end pilot watches---like the Zenith Pilot Type 20!!
Hi Teddy - Can you do a video on timepieces of famous authors and writers? For example, we've all heard of Hemingway's Rolex.. How about the others? Thanks!
Hey teddy, can you make a video about Rotary watch? I heard they make great quality watches but i never hear watch enthusiasts talk about it even though its a watch with history
Hi Teddy, as you asked for feedback, although the video is an interesting idea, I’d like to have known a little more about each watch, rather than a whistle-stop tour. Just my opinion though 😊
Really pushing the "like, comment and subscribe" stuff lately, Teddy. Got it, and the additional ways to "connect" with you in other social media platforms. Ease up, please.
Is this due to lack of content. What is the connexion between their watches and their wealth. If I was a rich as them I will employ someone to tell me the time whenever I needed it.It is incredible how far we are taking this watch discussion malarkey. It is just something to tell the time.Pure and simple.
Aaron Marino, CEO of Tiege Hanley Skin Care, wears MVMT. Or so I've heard.

Walmart CEO - Citizen Skyhawk
Amazon CEO - Ulysse Nordin Dual Time

If you like or are interested in watches, Baldassarre is the best channel.
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT. Definitely keep this going. I’d love to see the watches of more CEOs and senior executives. Keep it going for sure.
Also the Toyota ceo surprised me, I was expecting to see a Seiko Snowflake or some high end Seiko on his wrist! Keep the good work Teddy!
There’s nothing wrong with a beautiful Seiko. Hater
@@rallyrockss You're an idiot. He was expecting the CEO to be repping Japan, not Switzerland. He didn't diss Seiko; he was complimenting them.
reeser you don’t have to call me an idiot . You’re very rude and don’t understand my comment
He must but be a watch fan
Expected that as well but on the other hand rich German guys don't only wear Lange & Söhne and rich guys from Switzerland can wear an expensive French, German or Japanese watch as well.
The publicist of the company also recommend what kind of watch they should wear - it is all part of board of directors coaching , styling and projecting a certain image, especially in official capacities.
Thank you
I like this series! I would like to see more videos like this! A part two video with watches of other CEOs would be really cool.
I'm impressed seeing CEO's wearing more humble watches, good to know
There is a good reason for this. They have high status, and so don't need to wear watches to promote and advertise their status. It is the status seekers, who want to project an image higher than they are, who wear the more expensive watches.
Yes, I would enjoy a part 2. I really enjoy the concept of "Who is wearing what watches". Perhaps a hollywood glance, or Quarterbacks of the NFL.
Hi Teddy. I'm enjoying this series. How about what CEOs in the arts wear? The heads of museums, galleries, orchestras et al. Have you done famous artists yet? What did Dali wear? Warhol? Pollock?
Another awesome video! Knocking it out of the park Teddy.
I am surprised the Japanese are not wearing the Grand Seiko as I am right now.. This is my latest and might be my last. I love it 100% The End
I was surprised too seeing Akio wears a Patek.
All seikos look the same that's why
@@БојанПавловић-е3й +I doubt that gs has something at 36mm , also gs tends to be a little thicker .
So true! GS all the way!
Are you sure about that?! Ridiculous, GS is just above it.
I was totally expecting the CEO of toyota to have a grand seiko
There is waaaay too much going on on that Citizen dial if you ask me... individual elements are hardly legible anymore.
It’s not for me either. But I applaud the more humble pick
His taste in watches reflects his taste in companies to run
that is my problem with Citizen. Many of them are extremely busy.
The navihawk is busier than that even. I have it lol but I like watches like that
The watches of notorious serial killers... Is that a video idea or too raunchy?
Love the idea. I did dictators so let’s do this.
@@TeddyBaldassarre I wonder if those kind of minds would just pick a watch out of convenience or put thought into the watch they wear.. It is known those kind of people are into hidden messages...
Not at all raunchy.Great suggestion.
I would watch it!

Video idea: Affordable moonphase watches

It would be dope but if I’m not mistaken the Time Teller channel has done that video or a real similar one.
Yes please!
Please!
Frédérique constant
FC335MC4P6
Moon phase and Date
40mm and 10mm thick (not much)

It’s 1500€ wich is “inexpensive” for what you get
I bought if for my 21st birthday
I wonder how many of these billionaires made their own choices of watches???
probably they got them from friends or business associates. Just wonder that who really are watch addicts and knows what they are wearing.

I like the Skyhawk choice. Citizen has the best bang for the buck in cheap watches - design, features, construction.
That Citizen Skyhawk has been my only watch for 7 years! It's a great watch and sits perfectly on my wrist (19.5cm).

Why should the CEO of Toyota wear a Seiko? Should Bezos have to wear a Timex just because he is American?
He can wear whatever he wants. Just having fun with it
Matthew Lamb - Seriously? This is what offends you?
William Coolidge Yep.
Yeah man i agree with you , seiko for Asian business man
Of course he is not wearing a Seiko! A man leading a top quality car manufacturer, prefers top quality brands himself. 😎
@2:14 I've felt the same way. I always thought Toyota is like Seiko, where as Lexus, is like Grand Seiko.
Great job! Like this video.
Interesting video! I would have bet money on the Toyota CEO wearing a Grand Seiko. Hoping to see a part 2!

Do one on past & present film directors’ watches. (Peter Jackson wears a rectangular 1980s Seiko analog-digital. Perhaps from when he was young?)
i agree with Teddy- Akio should look at Grand Seiko or even Credor models too
