    Really cool collection. A lot of weird watches which isn't my style personally but thats what makes this hobby so cool. Also one vc is enough for most people and you get to own 3 which is so awesome.

    Now this may be the most diverse, eclectic watch collection I have ever seen. This was a very fun video to watch. I get tired of watching the same boring watch collections. I also like that you have a lot of Titanium watches. Those are my favorite, I love Titanium.

    You sir have earned an instant subscriber, this is the first video i’ve seen of yours and what an introduction to the channel it is! You’ve got some absolute gems in your collection, extremely diverse and a joy to watch in comparison to the monotonous,predictable and boring SOTC videos that that floating around on YT. Keep up the great work and will stay tuned for your content in the future!

    Just want to say, thanks for saying "travellers GMT" and not the silly "true GMT". Teddy Baldassare - take note. Also - mad respect for having a "no Rolex" collection. Rolex is for status seekers, not watch enthusiasts. I can't respect anyone who begs an AD to sell them a mass-produced and overpriced piece of machined metal.
