When I worked for Goldsmiths there was an old guy there who was 1 of the Rolex team. He wore a Tudor 79260 I asked him why not a Rolex he said “everybody knows Rolex, people who know Rolex know Tudor” and so began my fascination into watches and understanding the difference between customers and enthusiasts.
I equate Tudor to the scene in Gone in 60 Seconds where Nicolas Cage was talking about too many self indulgent wieners and eventually they get to Eleanor, “you wouldn’t be self indulgent sir, you’d be a connoisseur.”
Interesting to note, Rolex is registered as a Charity under the Wilsdorf Foundation as a Non-Profit; part of the reason why they are able to receive massive Tax-Cuts.
@@Alias_Anybody Point I was making is this, if you ever want to piss off a Rolex owner. Tell them they got their watch from a charity. However, technically I do believe Rolex is registered as a Non Profit to avoid paying larger sums of Taxes; the foundation being Privately held prevents auditors from regulating them to a severe extent. The nature of being a Swiss Business, much like Swiss Bank - Privacy of the utmost levels. Who knows what they do, apart from sponsoring Sports events.
You can do even more crazy stuff in Switzerland. You can build a Club, for instance a sportsclub or self-development club and this Club will not have to pay taxes at all. For instance FIFA is one of them. However, in Switzerland you pay income Tax. Your company is usually taxed very, very low = but when you get your paycheck.... Ok, to be honest, it’s still very low. Usually between 8% to around 35% of your income. However, if you would pay more then 1 Million in Taxes annually in Person you can always negotiate with the tax office about other forms of payment.
@@Alias_Anybody The Hans Wilsdorf Foundation actually does amazing work and continues the legacy of the man himself. It supplies scholarships for education and provides social assistance to those in switzerland (mainly). If anything this is an example of a company that is run as the flagship of national identity, for the people. Not saying i would give it all away if i owned it, but an honorable thing to do!
@@Em-nf3nt Hah, hah. I love my North Flag* on a bracelet but it's definitely a marmite watch. *It's the first watch I've owned with a power reserve indicator and I'm surprised at how much I look at it - gotta keep it wound up!
It is something monotonous that they always talk about the same watches "Rolex, Cassio and, yes, Hublo", it is refreshing for me to look at another type of watch brand I hope and you continue producing more videos like this to know more about watches
The Black Bay 58 was my first real introduction to the watch world.... Today. I commemorated a trip with my son to Paris and picked up the Blue 58, which I have wanted since 2021. I would love to have a date, but I'm also just so glad to have finally pulled the trigger on something I can hand down to my son. I'm a huge fan of Nico and have been researching and waiting for years to get my first watch and today was the day. I made $4k on Monday from a trade that had I not executed would have been gone. I was already looking at Tudor ADs here in Paris when Monday I woke up to a massive jump in stock price and I said, I'm taking profit. The amount I cleared was just enough to buy the watch and pocket another $1k. Very nice, I shared this moment with my son, he learned a bit about investing and not that this watch is an investment because it is not, but I definitely think it will hold its sentimental value and I hope to give it to him when he turns 18. And he loves it.
the editing has me dead (Grindr)!! I like this change up in the content where it is more educational, thank you Nico and team for this great video. I hope you have more of these (including your usual stuff)
Dear Nico, as always, fantastic review and thanks for it. Today I was very interested on the GMT, and becoming aware of your thoughts on it reafirmed me how much this is a Value Vs Money marvel of watchmaking......... The best regards from Colombia in South America. PD: Thanks for cheering us up so much with your fantastic attitude. Your channel has become a great cure for lockdowns.
This video is amazing! I am actually impressed by everything, the editors are really good. Overall best Tudor review like Nico would say: “The dogs bollocks”; keep it up with this quality content! 🔥🔥🔥
I’m a proud owner of the leather version. I think the brown goes well with the bezel. However I will be getting the steel bracelet at some point so I have both options.
I came here since I'm buying a Tudor soon & wanted to see what Nico had to say & boy it really showed me how much Nico's RUclips channel has massively grown & improved! Especially if you compare his latest upload video editing style, personality & comfortability on camera today compared to 2 years ago. Well done Nico, let her have it!
Absolutely love the new style of video Nico. Really informative, whilst maintaining your classic descriptions and personality. Definitely make this into a series! Also I understand your audience is probably American based but I feel including the valuations in euro would be great for us Irish and europeans!
The Blackbay GMT is the watch that my grandad had but got lost after he passed away, and ive made it my goal to get one as a reminder to a great man in my life
Been waiting for a video like this from you Nico, Loved it!!!! Just started my "real" watch collection with the God status in the mighty G-shock..... Would love to see a series on this as their are so many different types I was a little overwhelmed. Love you work as always mate!!!!
I have a few watches in my collection that don’t get enough fanfare.... Glashutte, Zenith, Ulysse Nardin are all excellent watches and they fly under the snob radar. Granted I love my Rolex 16610 and my Omega Seamaster PO but maybe showcasing lesser known brands could be interesting 🧐
Watched the video even before your story on insta. Great stuff. Loved the new style! Yes, please, make it as a series! Also, the editing... Absolutely bolocks! Well done editor 1 and 2!
@@matthewtanner5808 I ended up buying a 34mm Tudor Prince Oysterdate after looking for a Datejust, Honestly, the quality of the case / finishing is identical. If it wasn't for the bracelet and the logo, they'd be indistinguishable. Its kind of crazy that you can pick them up for well under £2k atm while an equivalent datejust will run you 3-6 times that.
Nice video Nico! I love to see variety of videos on this channel your personality makes everything more fun and I am much more attentive! Keek it up! Maybe for next video TIssot?
Can you make your content accessible by formatting the auto captioning to closed captioning please? I am Profoundly Deaf and it very hard to enjoy your content having to rely only on the dreaded auto captioning that for lack of a better word; shit.
Love the style of your vids Nico....funny, opinionated, concise and exhaustive. And rare for watch videos.....some actual passion instead of the usual mediation app voice. Subbd!
Hey Nico, great video mate, I’ve seen a lot of best and worst Tudor watches but no one mentions the Tudor prince date collections, what’s ur thought on that collection and perhaps if you are reading this comment you can do a video about the prince and oyster prince date models.
I’m not even here for the watches I just love watching you , I really do hope u grow quicker so more people can enjoy this pure real content best content on RUclips facts 💯✅

You should do one on Hublot, origin and why the hate 😂😂😂😂.
As the Pheonix was born from fire Hublot was born from shit, literal shit, the hate comes from it being a Hublot, thats all mate
If I'm not mistaken there's a video on the channel called "Why I hate Hublot" but it was too long for me to watch in one go.
i am dead LOL!
Bcs its founded in 1980 and they sell watches for 10k€ while they actually worth around 2k...

I absolutely love this format. Please do these for all watch brands. So badass.
Wanted a video about Tudor for a long time, but never expected it to come from you!

We need more videos like this one Nico. Informative, very well-produced, and funny. You even look half decent in this video son #nofatshaming
So I was thinking about getting a Black Bay GMT but was a bit skeptical. Thank you Nico for the assurance

Definitely keep doing these specific brand “history” lessons by Niko. 👏
Oh my god the quality of this video is outstanding!

This video is well put together from the lighting to the soundtrack playing in the back to everything else.
My question: how in the world are there 34 comments with only 9 views.
Nicos Answer: the Casio and Rolex gods have blessed the comments
The cinematography, dude 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
this makes me want to buy a Tudor
Yeah, it was a great review who knows maybe in the not so distant future Tudor will hook him up as an authorised dealer
The production quality of these videos is incredible. Well done guys

I love my 79730. I feel like it doesn’t get enough recognition. It’s just so functional and still had the right looks!
Totally agree. I love mine. I think it’s the best Black Bay available.
This style of video is so high quality - big up the boys
Thoughts on the Tudor royal because personally I love it
Thx for making me feel better because I am sick and this is the best part of my day so thx

Tudor Pelagos: allow me to introduce myself
Just picked up a 79730, super happy to see how well you speak of it.
More like this, maybe rotate between high mid and low range brands.
I expect Casio next

He just talks loud while actually saying nothing. I bet he doesn’t even own a Tudor and no pelagos mention? Which is by far the brands best watch.
