Reaching 100k Subscribers & The Best Mechanical Watch Under $50 - 1968 Timex Marlin - Mini Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 апр 2017
- In this episode I celebrate reaching 100k subscribers with the acquisition of a new watch, what else did you expect?! With real watchmaking heritage, understated class and a real mechanical movement, the Timex Marlin is hard to beat at a mere $50. With only a limited amount still in good working condition and made in the UK, this robust vintage 60s forgotten classic is one of the best value propositions out there!

Greetings and congratulations from the UK. Well done on 100k. Well deserved!
congrats tgv! i love your videos. you put the same effort into reviewing a 10k rolex as you do a $50 casio, which really proves that you respect and admire quality workmanship regardless of price. thats the mark of a classy man. keep up the great work. you're an inspiration! :)
Congrats! I remember subscribing to the channel when it "only" had 10k subscribers, now I see one more zero :D Thanks to you I fell in love with Squale, first 50 Atmos, later 60 Atmos... And today I spent 4 years worth of saving on a blue SqualeMatic and the only thing I can say is - perfection. I've never experienced such a feeling putting on a watch on my wrist. So, thank you for that, I probably would never appreciate Squale so much without this channel :D
WOW, so glad to hear, a die hard Squale fan like myself, what can I say?! You have impeccable taste sir! ;-)
thank you for the support over the years, deeply appreciated.
Best regards,
TGV
Tremendous respect for your unbridled enthusiasm closely coupled to total acceptances other watch people. That your main focus on this channel is enjoyment of life through watches is refreshing and laudable. Last but not least the richness of your video presentations and obvious care taken is both uncommon and greatly appreciated.

How perfectly timed, I just won a vintage timex on ebay, it's actually my first ever mechanical watch, really looking forward to getting into this sort of thing, and best of luck to you and your channel.
May the force be with you, your watches and your channel.

Congrats on 100k. Amazing feat. I think one of the success factors is consistency. Not many channels do that. Well done, TGV.
Congratulations! You are the reason i change watch every day!!!Best regards from Greece!
Great to see one of my favorite channels on RUclips reach such a magnificent milestone. Keep up the good work!!!
Heck I think I'll buy a watch to honor this occasion too. Great idea. Love this place! In fact my U1 arrived today from France and so I will forever connect it with this milestone for the Gentry channel.
Congrats for 100 000. Wow it's happened fast since 80 000 when i subbed. What's it been a few months or 1 or what?! Love your passion for this awesome hobby and iv'e gotta say you've really inspired me to start my own collection; but not only that, just simply inspiring me to get involved with new things and hobbies and too enjoy and appreciate things. Got my watch goals now up there with everything else so it just ads and motivates me. Appreciate ya!
Congrats on the subscriber milestone! By far the best watch channel around. Love the new piece!!!
Thank you Joseph, extremely flattered.
Best regards,
TGV
I am glad to be a part of this community. I never knew anything about watches or even gave it a second thought the mechanical genius of engineer and timeless technology. It's a wonderful work of art that guides us every day, and all of that in a small metal case, it's brilliant.
Congratulations, TGV, and I raise my glass to you and everyone at UGWC. Here's to another 100k! Cheers!
Congratulations TGV! I have always enjoyed how you present the subject matter and how you use proper English unlike certain other obnoxious watch reviewers!
Congratulation TGV! Its certainly a important milestone, whats better way to reward yourself than getting a new watch. haha! Thank you for all the videos, enjoy every one. Keep it up!
You've created a monster out of me... Bought a Hamilton Khaki Field and Seiko Sarb065 today.. thanks for the great content and congrats on 100k! Love your channel!
Your true passion for watches and charisma is what keeps this channel growing. British accent sure helps too. congrats mate. Cheers
Congratulations TGV! You totally deserve it. Keep up the good work.
Thank you Daniel :D
