    You produce the best watch content on YT. I can't stand the Rolex clickbait videos anymore and your channel offers the best quality videos on every aspect of watchmaking. You visit the coolest brands' headquarters and factories and showed us how the watches are actually made, you present watches from every price point from $50 to 5M, you make the best fun watch shopping videos, the best comparison videos, you provide all the useful info on watches, you were the guy that teached the watch community to not judge the wearability of a watch just based on the case size and how that lug to lug measurement was a much more important thing to consider for that matter. I respect you for all the hard work you've done for the watch community, you're the guy that's really making the watch world a better place. Thank you Teddy, thank you a thousand times, you're a real one. ✌🏼

      Teddy is superb. I would also highly recommend the Mad Watch Collector. His style is very different, and highly entertaining, but he's very well informed and also never stoops to clickbait. He's also certifiably insane, which is nice.

    The Longines Calendar Chronograph is another one of those watches that I did not like from photos or videos but in the flesh it's simply must be one of the best value watches with these complications for the cash from a Swiss brand. In the flesh it really is food for the brain. Although it's far from being the best at a glance watch for reading the time some thought has gone into the readability. The time telling hands are leaf shape while the chronograph hands are sticks. Day, pointer date, month, 24 hour scale (AM/PM) dial and moon phase are all present. The textured dial and heat blued hands are the icing on the cake. I love it. A column wheel movement can be seen through the display case back showing a modified and decorated Valjoux 7750 is also a bonus at this price. One minor gripe would be that it's not that easy to wind with the small crown on the 40mm version.

    I'll throw another watch into this discussion, although it's not quite in line with the lesser known brands you put in this video. Among the heavy hitter manufacturers, I would argue one of the best values for money is the JLC Master Grand Reveil. Made from 2005 to 2012 (I think), it combines a mechanical alarm (with ring AND vibrate functions), a perpetual calendar, and a moonphase of N and S hemispheres, all for roughly $15k at current pre-owned prices. The fact that it's offered in steel helps with the price (there's a LE platinum version as well), but all in all I was hard pressed to find anything more horologically impressive than this for the price, so I'm the very proud owner of one!

  • @GenoBady2738
    @GenoBady2738 Год назад +5

    I bought a vintage Tudor Advisor (alarm complication) from 1958. It didn't run right, so I brought it to the local watchmaker. He gushed all over it and talked about what a special watch it was. Since then, I've gotten great service because they know I'm serious about horology. I wouldn't trade my Advisor for anything.

    I love this video. I like to collect unusual complications as well and own quite a few of the ones you stated. Trilobe is one that's been on my radar but I haven't really been willing to sink that kind of money on it yet.
    For Alarm, my choice of watch was towards the vintage side with the Seiko Bellmatic. There is one by Citizen actually that is louder and still great looking as well from the 70s.
    For Jump Hour and Regulator I got the Universal Geneve 825.125 Jump Hour. It also features a regulator dial with jump hour at top and minute hands and seconds hands on their own.
    The C1 Bel Canto, I couldn't resist, so I'm looking to receive mine as well :)
    The rest, I haven't gotten to, but neat all the same!
