I've updated the description with some fresh links to buy the watches features! (best prices I could find) 🚨
Seiko Presage consistently has beautiful designs, in so many models. Whoever is working in their art and design department should be proud.
if only it would be 38-39 cm with sapphire
I have the Edifice Casioak (cost me 110 USD) and the Kamasu (first gen, green dial/green bezel, cost about 220 USD) and they both look twice more expensive than what I paid for them. I did get them during summer discount sale, so bear in mind they are usually hard to find at the prices I mentioned.
A very good list. Beaucroft are well worth consideration. It's great to see so many British based brands bringing good watches to market. OK they have to source most parts elsewhere but there are some very innovative designs going on that make them special.
Great detailed informative video 👍🏾, ever considered using labelled chapters?
That mint blue Beaucroft looks fantastic! Dig the Maen too…
Thank you my friend these are mind opening. İ learnt because of you some perfect brands and models
Thanks for information sharing.
The Citizen NH8390-03X is also a really great and awesome looking watch for below 200$. Especially in green with the sunray dial.
I looked it up on google like you said. And it's so beautiful
Where did you get the strap on the presage on the video headed it looks super clean together
I love the seiko cocktail time range, stunning dials. You're absolutely right though, its hard to just pick one! Im still thinking about getting a SNKL23, it just looks so classy. Great list Kieron, cheers 👍
Don’t
Do you know where to buy an SNKL23? 🤔
@@marvinbrich1580 I think Creation Watches have some 👍
@@rikdriscoll2160 thank you, but I think they ship from China or something 🤔
@@marvinbrich1580 I think they ship from Thailand. I haven't bought anything from them but I believe they can ship reasonably quickly.
All beautiful watches. Now i have to add these to my list. 😅
Merkur looks really good - thanks!
great choices
No watch beats my $13 Casio Enticer MTP-V005 with Blue sunburst dial !
I disagree. I picked up a Lionel train watch for $5 at a garage sale a couple of years ago. It still runs and never fails to entertain!
Im a Seiko lover. Really like the Seiko presage green dial.
@TopTierTicker Where can I find the exact same bracelet used on SRPE45J1? green with the yellow/white line in the middle.
Can you please share the model and possibly a link for the Seiko in the thumbnail? It’s beautiful and the nylon strap very unique.
I second this!
Seiko Presage Analog Watch for Men, Automatic, Green Dial, Brown Leather Strap - SRPE45
Totally agree, especially with the Seiko Cocktail and older 5 range. The Star Bar Cocktail limited watches have some very unique dials and look at least twice more expensive. The Seiko 5 range have very good detailing for such low price. They were of course even way cheaper couple years ago, but still amazing bang for buck!
I'm selling my cocktail time for an Alpanist which second hand worked out at just over £400. The cocktail time is still lovely but it just gets a bit boring after a year or two. I wanted something that was more wearable in the days as well as nights. Cocktail time is so well priced though either way.
Very nice video!
some nice looking watches there , alot of them ive not heard of , but i di like the look of the seiko & maen ones , very nice , i also love my seikos & i also like bulovas, & longines too .
3rd watch is gorgeous
Thanks a lot..
What is the watch in the picture on the lead in to the video.
again, very interesting. thanks
The Orient Bambino line should have made it on this list. Also, if we're including microbrands, the Helm Vanuatu dive watch looks like it costs 4x what it actually does.
Like your watch choices...who knew would like a Rolex however Everyday wear think these are smashing going to probably purchase Orient thanks for information appreciated....good luck hope your well..stay safe have super evening!
So with the Maen is it better to upgrade the £300 for the Sellita movement or go with the Ronda R150?
If you have the cash, upgrade, but the Ronda R150 is just fine.
@@TopTierTicker what exactly is the difference though?
@@jayden_2954 I know this is from 5 months ago but: The upgraded movement gets some really nice finishing and decoration as well as an exhibition caseback to show it off. I think it might also have a tighter accuracy tolerance but don't quote me on that.
But which one is the Seiko from the thumbnail?
Citizen NH8390-03XE with beautiful green sunburst dial.
I love the look of that Salmon Merkur. I just wished it would come with a sapphire crystal. Also I wish that Maen came with a salmon dial option.
The Maen does come with a salmon dial 😜 yeah the mineral does suck!
Amazing list! My wallet is now sweating
I really don't know where you found the Citizen NH8350 at this price but more importantly with the leather strap, but I'm obsessing over it badly, damn😝
Creation watches & Jomashop my friend. Also, the strap is from Vario, and I highly recommend them!
No, can't find iit either!
Meh..... i give you the right ones!! Seagull 1963 chrono, Pierre Paulin Jumping hours, Sugess chrono (the one that looks like zenith), Sugess Tourbillon, Tissot PRX quartz or Mech (depends on your budget), Vintage Bulova accutron spaceview, Zodiac Olympos, Zodiac Astrographic, Bulova Super Seville day date. If you want more just ask !!
I think the seagull 1963 looks pretty cheap, the Pierre Paulin jump hour was released after this video was made, sugess chrono is just a straight up copy of another watch, Yes the PRX is, but that's a super obvious pick that everyone already knows about. As the for Zodiac and Bulovas... Sure, bit niche, but sure.
How do you do this list without a tissot prx?
All I buy are Seiko and Citizen.
I got a great looking affordable Seiko, but my one gripe is the second hand doesn't line up with the marks. If they ironed out that kink it'd be perfect.
What is the green and tan nato strap on Green cocktail time on the cover picture for this video?
It's from CNS watch bands
4:28 great !
The biggest problem with Casio in a list about expensive looking watches is not the build quality but how well known the brand is for really affordable watches.
The watch itself looks more expensive than it is, but the moment they see the casio logo most people will know it's very affordable.
That doesn't matter to me but I understand what you mean. I'm a Casio fan but maybe they ought to create another sub-brand like G Shock for their more expensive watches.
There are only few watch brands that when the average person sees they'll think it's expensive mainly just rolex, cartier and maybe AP.
@@zhixci958 I would disagree, at least what the average person would call expensive for a watch.
Sure when we are talking about watches that cost over 10K or even 100K most people only know Rolex and maybe a few more, but for the majority of people "expensive" for a watch starts way below that.
A lot of my friends, colleagues and family members think the 420€ i spent on my Seiko Cocktail Time is way too much for a watch.
The Beaucroft wbsite has nothing under 375 Sterling.
Maen is so good looking is stupid. I'm just scared it won't fit my wrist
It had a fairly long lug to lug to it should work on a large wrist, and with the 37mm Case, it should work on small wrists too. Universal dimensions!
My salmon no date came in last week. More copper/bronze and bank salmon. It’s a beauty. The blue and salmon dials are tops.
These are on sale at the moment, but I’m going to wait till there’s one of those hectic dial designs is on sale.
Amei todas as bolsas lindas e de muito bom gosto.Parabens #mamacoo 😘😘
Where can I get the nylon strap featured in the thumbnail?
CNS watch bands, at least you used to be able to. Not sure if they have that colourway anymore
One tiny correction : The Casio Edifice is EFR-S107D , not AFR..if my memory serves me well, all Edifice watches start with an E
Whats the watch in the main thumbail ?
I stick to my JUNGHANS Max Bill, designed in the early sixties by BAUHAUS Künstler Max Bill. JUNGHANS re-introduced the watch in the early 2000's. I bought mine in 2010. It's the only watch I have. I've payed €625.00 back then. I like all my things to have a story. Otherwise it's just an object...regardless of the price.
Seiko on the thumbnail. Anybody knows the ref number?
Where can I buy the Seiko SNKL23? 🤔
Jomashop, it's about $105 at the moment.
"Usual problem with casio is build quality".....I wish 😅😂
Good one mate! But include the prices
I do occasionally, but then people moan when prices change... Like it's my fault 😂
@TopTierTicker hahahaha I get it mate! Great video again and love your content
Logo on crown looks as if it intends to say "Hey, I am a ZENITH El Primero"...😅😮
Bro
0:20 Citizin Hidden Gem
What your opinion about zeppelin watches?
They're alright, I've handled two in the past. They do a job for the low price.
Wouldn't bother with casio too small and cant see even the tine
For this to be only 3months ago almost nothing featured here is remotely close to the prices stated.(sans cocktail time and Beaucroft) They are all 30-80 dollars more or sold out.
I've left some pretty sharp prices in the description. Yes, most are slightly inflated, but it's holiday season... This happens.
Prices were accurate as of the time of recording
What is the watch in the picture as a lead in to the video??
Seiko Mojito
It features in the cocktail time section of the videon
9:30 "EPSON" is stamped on rear case.
Yes? It's the brand that owns Orient... Seiko Epson.
Seiko cocktail are no longer $100 dollar,.. they have become above $300
Which watch is the one that is put on the humbnail? It's kinda f ed up that it's not in the list but is used for thumbnail
It's the Seiko cocktail time, it does make the list. 'Mojito'
@@TopTierTicker my apologies then, and thank you for the clarification
@@TopTierTicker bought the watch, waiting for the strap found the same one you had. super excited
What watch is that at the 17 second mark? Beige dial w/ the Asian characters on it.
Hasn't the seiko5 out of production, and can't be hacked or hand wound.
Nice watches. As I am over 50 I dont need a watch with date! Can´t see without glasses but everyone would see wrong date.
A Seiko presage at £380 with a hardlex crystal is definitely not bargain budget.
Every watch has its flaws. It's a dress watch, why does it need a sapphire? Those beautiful dials more than make up for it.
@@TopTierTicker It is a beautiful watch but hardlex is terrible and no way should seiko still be ripping people off by using it on not cheap pieces!
They used to mean quality for a fair price a long time ago.
@@seanhickling7340How is hardlex terrible ?
@@dgdave2673 Scratches easily and is purely a money saving exercise by a massive company who don't pass on those savings to it's customers.
@@dgdave2673scratches easily.
Baltic Bicompax is certainly a lovely watch but not quite a bargain budget... 600+ EUR?
It's a bargain for someone who's considering buying a submariner... If its not a bargain for you, there's others that are more affordable.
Whats that bracelet on the SNKL23?
😅
Love this channel.. but need to discuss what "budget" really means 😂😂
I tend to stick around the $500 mark. It's hard with it being such a subjective matter. But generally speaking, I think for most, $500 is affordable
@@TopTierTickerill take your word for it my friend.. ive tried to get a few of the mircobrands youve mentioned... hard to get em! .. keep up the awesome content my dude
Budget means different things to different people. An airline pilot's budget will be different to the budget of someone working in a sandwich shop.
@johntate5050 that's true.. im more "my wife controls our finances" kinda budget lol
Casio could saved time and effort by leaving out the screws on the Edifice and had a better looking watch, are they real or milled, hard to say from the video
I quite like them, it finishes off the look for me
This first blue citizen watch NHA350 ? does not exist on internet.
I looked for it too. It does not exist. What non sense
NH8350. It says it on the screen.
6:42 Is this watch good quality for the price?
I honestly read the thumbnail like: "Expensive. Looks bargain budget." Was momentarily confused.
Haha, I should've maybe used a comma
@@TopTierTicker I think my brain just malfunctioned 😂
Mate, where is the watch from the minature? Clickbait? ;)
Luxury watches with a mineral crystal! My foot! This is just a trap to keep the buying cycle for ever...
You may have overlooked the new 38.5mm Casio Duro. It goes for around £60. The older 44.5 mm watch can be had for around £50 or less. This is the watch Bill Gates wears!
Why don't they make an analog watch that just gives the day of the week, instead of the date? With the date, you have to re-set your analog watch 5 times a year. And quite frankly, the day of the week (Monday, Tuesday, etc.) are what I care about, not that it's the 1st, the 7th, the 23rd day of the month.
My guy things 400 is afordable... My affordable is 40 tops... jesus :D
The Maen is flat out sick. They need to be arrested....lol!
Watching from india 🇮🇳
Now don't know what to do 😅
Now make a video “expensive watches that looks cheap”
Apart from the Cocktail Time, the rest look like supermarket watches, (
That's an interesting take 😆
I've gotten more compliments on my $59.95 Invicta Pro Diver (gold) than any of my expensive watches! It just catches the eye, what can I say?
U know what ur budget watch is my expensive watch
Cant find that Citizen for less than $100.
Creationwatches & Jomashop. Still around the $100 mark.
I really liked the watch that was in thumbnail. Unfortunately, it wasn't one of the watches discussed. I'm really not a fan of the bait and switch, and for what it is worth, that's a quick way to make sure people avoid your content.
It's a Seiko cocktail time, which does absolutely feature in the video.
3:53 it features...
@@TopTierTicker My apologies. I missed the 2 seconds it was in the video.
Yassss queen😈😈@@TopTierTicker
Can you do 10 expensive watches that look affordable
😂
Just 10? I can already think of atleast 100 🤣
What's the citizen reference number?
NH8350. I've put a link in the description for it :)
the beaucroft senate is $469. US. Nope.
living in a third-world country where a dollar is worth tens of thousands of our currency, all these watches are luxury watches to me. not even slightly affordable. I really hate my country's gov for making us so poor. :((
Which country?
@@cw8611 Probably a Southeast Asian country. Like mine. 😅
Cleaning plaster off floorboards
Actually Iran (it is a middle eastern country)
@@pichazaiI really wish to visit Iran someday. But news always says you guys hate non Muslims . What do Iranians think of Indians?
Invicta !!!
I can't convince myself to buy a microbrand watch. The concept appeals to me but at the end of the day they're just Chinese parts bin specials masquerading as independent watch brands.
Near enough every watch brand buys parts from China. The phone that you're watching on is made in China. It's just how the world works. To see it as a negative is very selective thinking.
@@TopTierTicker But for the same money you could have a Seiko or an Orient that are made to Seiko and Orient standards. Who knows what standard the microbrand watches are made to?
SNKL23 has bad QC
Mine was absolutely fine. I did get a big dirty scratch across the crystal... But that was completely my fault 😆
You need chapters in your videos
Whats up with the weird music lol
Wearing that salmon dial MAEN Manhattan 37 today 😊
niiiiice! Enjoy my friend
With watches expensive often looks cheap. Too much bling in this industry.
too much fancy words, so the points get blurred.
In what world is a 400$ watch affordable to most people.
In my world
500 dolar watches are affordable? wtf
First
Indeed you are! Very quick today mate 😆
Shocking you even recommend a Chinese brand watch ?
I don't have anything against Chinese watch brands, there are some great ones. I just prefer original designs to homage watches :)
What's wrong with that?
