@@SARTORIALTALKS It's interesting when Teddy talks about how a mechanical watch can last more than a lifetime but, at 48:30 mentions its hard to get parts for a 1960s Omega. 🤔🙃
Loved the chemistry between Hugo and Teddy here. It reminds me of how fun it is to meet up with fellow hobbyists or when you invite your friends to try out the things you like. I mean this as the best of compliments but Hugo is like the hip uncle you can get along with!
It’s wonderful to see those two worlds come together ! Wow ! Two different channels but amazing chemistry. Merci Monsieur Jacomet pour cet épisode original et très pertinent.
Great video 😊 I’d add that there are some spectacular high-end quartz watches in this range via Grand Seiko. Even with nice mechanical watches in your collection, it’s a treat to have a lovely quartz option on your dresser. It will ticking away and telling the right time when you are in a hurry to get out the door!
I can't believe it, with Teddy! I'm a huge watch collector, been watching both of your channels for years in fact Hugo you really made one of the absolute best watch-related videos where you showed Phillipe Dufour's Simplicity and your watch if I remember was a Laurant Ferrier, my favorite brand of all. Those are not well known watches, you are clearly a true collector and its GREAT to see you two get together. Cheers!
Thank you so much! Finally we can see you in another video. A month felt so long without watching a video of yours. Best regards, monsieur Jacomet and Sonya.
Superbe échange entre 2 grands passionnés et surtout 2 créateurs de grande qualité sur youtube. Teddy est sans aucune doute un des meilleurs youtubeurs dans l'univers de l'horlogerie. Heureux de voir cette vidéo en commun et de pouvoir vous écouter échanger sur des sujets passionnants. Encore une belle vidéo et une belle interview. Merci Hugo. Cheers. Florent.
What a great nexus or confluence of meetings. What a wonderful exchange and have been a fan of both Hugo and Teddy for awhile. I’m sure a dinner and spouses were involved, as both men have great women behind them!
Hugo, your comment is so correct. In America, the culture is to de-emphasize a person’s name, to try to reduce a name to a single syllable. But i really like your view point, maybe the old world view point, of savoring the pronunciation of a name. One can say, by paying attention to a name, by taking your time to pronounce it correctly, you also give respect to that person. It's a very nice and pleasant way.
I love my An Ordain and was lucky enough to visit the studio in Glasgow ,Scotland to make my selection. A thoroughly unique watch from talented, and friendly people.
I'm on the list for next April. (Approximately) I wish I could see the options, in person, prior to making a choice. I don't think online does it credit
@@thomashelm6931 Having seen au grand feu dials in person, I can attest. They are spectacular in life. Moser has a few nice dials as well. Hugo had an instant attraction and it's charming to see

It's wonderful to see your recent collaborations with other knowledgeable people around the classical style sphere. Good selection from Teddy as well; a bit left-field, wide selection.
@@SARTORIALTALKS Out of all the RUclips Watch-influencers, Teddy probably was the best fit for a variety of reasons; from his thematic focus on anything from very affordable to mid-range luxury watches to his friendly and modest demeanor, he and you just seemed to get along very well. Keep up the good work, Hugo (and the rest of your family as well)
Great content! If you get an Orient you are good. I have the Orient since 5 years ago, looks and works perfectly. There was some talk about movements, but this one works perfectly. Spending ten times as much to get some other kind of movement makes no sense at all. The only possible negative is that it would be slightly too big on a less than average wrist. Then you really cannot wear it. Still, the fact that so many more expensive watches look gaudy, and unbalanced, makes the Orient better than almost any watch regardless of price. I gave one to my brother who loves it. I also got a gold colored thinner smaller version for dressing up.
Very interesting episode connecting the sartorial and the horological worlds. Nice conversation between the two of you. An idea for another collaboration would be to take a subset of the watches reviewed by Teddy Baldassare and have Hugo Jacomet discuss how and when he would use them. Also how he would pair them with different straps.
Thank you for nice video, and for the explanation of Presage! I happen to own that Presage with blue dial and steel bracelet, but have to say the variant shown in video is also beautiful.
I am 60 YO. When I was around 12 I saved some money and bought an Orient. Today I would consider it horrible but back then I was in love with the watch in the window of this store. The watch said “water resistant” and it fogged the first time I washed my hands. Back then (48 years ago) Orient was a Mickey Mouse Brand.
I am 1 year ahead of you. My uncle was in Vietnam. I loved his field watches, but I was always breaking plastic crystals. It was has hard to to imagine how a 12 year old could destroy Hamilton military watches. 😬
In a future presentation you may mention these watches. Pitsmann from Korea , powered by a Selita SW 200. Another is Kuoe , iether Royal Smith variant powered by Miyota 9035, the Old Smith 007 is powered by a Miyota 82S0.

Je ne vous connaissais pas, Hugo... c'est grâce aux vidéos de Teddy que je vous découvre et j'ai été conquis par votre approche et réactions équilibrées, intéréssées et intéressantes. Je vais suivre votre chaîne. (oui, ce message est en Français ^^).
Teddy speaks so clearly and well expressed. Love how his passion and knowledge has made him. Very admirable how much he knows and how he shares his knowledge
Anordain produces some exceptional watches, with dial that feel almost 3-dimentional. Great choice. As someone who loves Seiko Presage watches, I wanted to say that the Presage Cocktail watches start at the low end of the Presage series, with prices going well north of there. I seriously desire a Presage Sharp-Edged watch, which has a dial that has a design based on a 1000 year old textile design of hemp leaves. The design reflects light from many directions, producing a mesmerizing play of light across the dial. I particularly like the white, the emerald green, and the blue dials (they also offer a beautiful burgundy red, a brown, and a black dial as well). The watches takes quite a few design and finish details from Grand Seiko. Prices runs from MSRP $1000 - $1400 USD. But this is not the end of the Presage line. They also offer some that have very traditional Japanese enamels and another that has a dial made of Arita porcelain (spectacular dress watch). They also offer several with the Grand Seiko Spring Drive movement. The Presage series tops out about $4500 USD, so slightly extend beyond the lower price quartz Grand Seikos.
Hi, very much enjoyed your watch program. I have a small collection, namely Rolex and Cartier. However one of my favourite watches is Hamilton thin o magic circa 1950 with a solid gold one piece case a great dress watch but could be worn with every style, difficult to find good at £1500 + l
Off topic a bit, it would be interesting if it were possible, for you to have a conversation with Ralph Lauren. He would appreciate your understanding of menswear.
Great video. I like the AnOrdain. I was lucky enough to pick up a green fume Model 1 in the original size. The new multiple sized Model 1’s and Model 2 should greatly enhance the desirability of the brand. Though unfortunately this will probably exacerbate the issues with waiting lists.
Absolutely loved this episode. I would love if you guys got back together (perhaps you could fly to France Teddy!) and maybe do a 3000-8000 USD range series. Perhaps for the person who has watched this video and gotten into watches and wants to get into something a bit more up market, etc. I'm not sure if it's in the wheelhouse but also, another option would be to do a series on more casual watches rather than staying more in the dress watch zone?
@@SARTORIALTALKS I guessed as much. Not anywhere near my pricerange, unfortunately. But this latest pair of yours is very nice indeed. If sometime in the future can afford indulgences of this kind, Maison Bonnet is very much on the list.
Awesome to finally see you make a video with teddy! That's wonderful. Sprezzatura you two have an amazing chemistry together on screen. I love that. I knew from the start you both would get along and nerd out in such a way that highlights your passions and finesse. Bravo!
This was a fantastic episode!! I have followed both channels for quite a while now, and seeing you all work together is just a treat to see (similar to when you collaborated with Trent and Heath on shoes recently). That said, the AnOrdain watches are absolutely amazing!!!!
The Oris Rectangular and Raymond Weil Maestro surprised me. I'm more of a field watch kind of man--I prefer the functionality of them-- but I've recently discovered the joys of a dress watch with an Orient Star Classic. I will check these watches out when I get the chance.
My English is not very good not to say zero but that does not prevent me from enjoying this episode with a nice selection once again!!!! Thanks to you two and to your guests 😉 I also thank Google translation which helped me a lot for the comment 🤣 I'm going to look at the rest.
I also have a preference for smaller watches. That's the most disappointing thing I find with modern pieces, it is so incredibly difficult to find something in the classic 36mm size. To me, smaller watches are more elegant.
*Hugo* - off topic - You need to watch the movie "The Outfit (2022)". It is about a tailor (calls himself a cutter not a tailor), who makes suits for gangsters in Chicago but doesn't want to get involved. Trouble comes to him, so there is intrigue involved, with twists & turns.
Since you mentioned some of the wonderful bespoke japanese cobblers, there are also some fantastic japanese independent watch-makers like Kikuchi Nakagawa and Hajime Asaoka
To be precise, his surname in Italian should be pronounced Baldassàrre, with the tonic accent on the last syllable. Fun fuct: Baldassarre is also the name of one of the 3 biblical magi in Italian, so a really beautiful surname indeed.
I have long been a fan of Orient and Orient Star (their slightly more expensive brand). Beautifully designed high quality watches at a very reasonable price.
great MR. JACOME you and teddy looked great and your trying the watches in your hand gave us a good example of how it looks on bespoke suits quite great choices especially dress watches. Please can you even mension your wrist dimension it is easy to get an idea as how it will look on my or others wrists. Why don't you look in some Indian brands like Titan ,Fastrack. Especially nebula series of titan offering 18 karat gold watches at affordable prices and other dress watches in the same. I hope you would consider my suggestion. Thank you so much for making such great videos you helped me deepen my interest and knowledge about the sartorial world great job continue doing it. Apologies if I misspell your name. one of your subscribers, KAUSTUBH JOSHI.
Ha, just as I was looking for a quality watch to compliment the rest of my style. Right now I only have a 50 year old watch my grandfather left to me, and it sparked my interest in watches. Excellent timing and thank you, Hugo.
A superb video , Hugo. I’ve come from a Teddy Baldassarre direction, a singularly impressive man in how quickly he’s turned into a go to guy for watch reviews since 2017…..remarkable! I just loved the interaction between you two guys, thank you.
Maybe I am going to commit a sartorial crime but I am only 23. What do you all think about smart watches? As a younger person I think it is something more of these brands that you have talked about should get into and has lots of potential.
Dear Bailey, Swatch watches are fun and of decent quality (for this type of casual / sport watch). Of course they didn't correspond to our selection (mechanical dress watches) but honestly I have nothing against Swatch for casual settings. Cheers, Hugo
Really great video Hugo . I don't like these Apple watches when you are wearing a nice suite.The $150 watch will look far superior. What are you views sir.. Greetings from Glasgow Scotland .. Are you going to put a Scotch Whisky review out ? Night cap .Beautiful suit on . Bossing it ..
I have been waiting for this episode since you posted it on Instagram last month that you are doing a collab with Teddy. This episode is so good, i hope to see more collab please.
I love these two guys who are clearly bright with a genuine love of watches, who expound the benefits regardless of price point. I loved it when Hugo picked up the Bambino and marveled at it for what it was! The Rolex for those in the trenches.
I do not know this channel, nor the French gentleman hosting the show, however, he's got impeccable taste. Of all the watches there, for pure 'Dress' function, the two Japanese watches were standouts, personality with subtly enough for a true dress piece, and that beautiful AnOrdain (the Plum is MY favourite of their dials too), is just so....refined....in it's beauty, that even if one would imagine that a Plum dial might be a little too ....'loud' for a dress watch, that one just spot on.... it works, even for a dress watch, in ways someone else, even Seiko with some of their louder Cocktail Time dials, could not pull off. That the host could instantly be drawn to the AnOrdain, despite it perhaps not being traditional, and in a colour many dress watches could not manage to pull off without becoming too loud to remain so, could immediately feel the 'Japanese Magic' of the Seiko Cocktail, knew and appreciated how amazing the Bambino was, make it evident this gentleman knows his stuff.... well having Teddy on his show said that already, but the aforementioned just confirmed it. Those were the three standouts, and he knew it right off. I am far from a Satorial kind of man, but I appreciate people who have both passion, and knowledge, as well as natural feel for their subjects, and this fellow does, so I think I am going to have to subscribe to this channel.

You're right Riccardo, I was too enthusiastic that I forgot I was just French 😂. Cheers, Hugo
I have long been a fan of Orient and Orient Star (their slightly more expensive brand). Beautifully designed high quality watches at a very reasonable price.
I agree 100% Michael. All my best, Hugo
great MR. JACOME you and teddy looked great and your trying the watches in your hand gave us a good example of how it looks on bespoke suits quite great choices especially dress watches. Please can you even mension your wrist dimension it is easy to get an idea as how it will look on my or others wrists. Why don't you look in some Indian brands like Titan ,Fastrack. Especially nebula series of titan offering 18 karat gold watches at affordable prices and other dress watches in the same. I hope you would consider my suggestion. Thank you so much for making such great videos you helped me deepen my interest and knowledge about the sartorial world great job continue doing it.
Apologies if I misspell your name.

Dear Joshi, many thanks for your comment. I don't know this brand but I will take a look. All my best, Hugo
Good Ol Theodore Bulbasaur.
Thank you Hugo and Teddy ... a wonderfully enjoyable and educational experience. 🌺
Thank you my friend for your kind and encouraging words. Cheers, Hugo
Ha, just as I was looking for a quality watch to compliment the rest of my style. Right now I only have a 50 year old watch my grandfather left to me, and it sparked my interest in watches. Excellent timing and thank you, Hugo.
With great joy Regis! Best, Hugo
Orient Bambino - the legendary watch with basic problem. Why 40mm? A watch of that kind should be 36mm, 37mm and at max 38mm.
I can't disagree with you my friend. Hugo
Such an interesting video, the hour flew by. Thank you.
You're very welcome Graham! Have a beautiful weekend, Hugo
Didn't expect you to bring up Baltic , a very underrated French microbrand. I personally own two of their sector dials and really love them alot
Yes Thomas, I agree with you, Baltic is one of the good surprises of the last years. All my best, Hugo
What's up Hugo...welcome to our hometown!! And Teddy is one of us. I watch both of you and rock on!!
Thank you Sir, Cleveland is a nice city indeed! Cheers, Hugo
A superb video , Hugo. I’ve come from a Teddy Baldassarre direction, a singularly impressive man in how quickly he’s turned into a go to guy for watch reviews since 2017…..remarkable! I just loved the interaction between you two guys, thank you.
Maybe I am going to commit a sartorial crime but I am only 23. What do you all think about smart watches? As a younger person I think it is something more of these brands that you have talked about should get into and has lots of potential.
Dear Bailey, Swatch watches are fun and of decent quality (for this type of casual / sport watch). Of course they didn't correspond to our selection (mechanical dress watches) but honestly I have nothing against Swatch for casual settings. Cheers, Hugo
Really great video Hugo .
I don't like these Apple watches when you are wearing a nice suite.The $150 watch will look far superior. What are you views sir..
Greetings from Glasgow Scotland ..
Are you going to put a Scotch Whisky review out ?
Night cap .Beautiful suit on .
Bossing it ..
Dear David, we are planning a whisky review but not alone, with a specialist. Cheers, Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS Looking forward to it .Kind regards to you and your beautiful wife.
Sonya and Hugo... brilliant move to collaborate with other people... keep going this way
Thank you for your encouraging messages my friend! Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS i also watch the video with the Trenton..
English also has the word "presage" (borrowed from French) but it sounds better pronounced the French way, haha.
😅
Thanks for the amazing content Hugo. You continue to be an inspiration for many like me.
With great joy my friend! Hugo
For sure Anordain will have more production troubles. I’m gonna order one
2 years of what is not that much after all. Cheers, Hugo
I have been waiting for this episode since you posted it on Instagram last month that you are doing a collab with Teddy. This episode is so good, i hope to see more collab please.
Thank you Georgie for your enthusiasm and your support. All my best wishes, Hugo
This was very good. Thank you, two classy guys. Oh, I just subscribed as well. Excellent content.
ÓTIMOS RELÓGIOS DE QUALIDADE 👍👍👍 🇧🇷
I love these two guys who are clearly bright with a genuine love of watches, who expound the benefits regardless of price point. I loved it when Hugo picked up the Bambino and marveled at it for what it was! The Rolex for those in the trenches.
I do not know this channel, nor the French gentleman hosting the show, however, he's got impeccable taste. Of all the watches there, for pure 'Dress' function, the two Japanese watches were standouts, personality with subtly enough for a true dress piece, and that beautiful AnOrdain (the Plum is MY favourite of their dials too), is just so....refined....in it's beauty, that even if one would imagine that a Plum dial might be a little too ....'loud' for a dress watch, that one just spot on.... it works, even for a dress watch, in ways someone else, even Seiko with some of their louder Cocktail Time dials, could not pull off.
That the host could instantly be drawn to the AnOrdain, despite it perhaps not being traditional, and in a colour many dress watches could not manage to pull off without becoming too loud to remain so, could immediately feel the 'Japanese Magic' of the Seiko Cocktail, knew and appreciated how amazing the Bambino was, make it evident this gentleman knows his stuff.... well having Teddy on his show said that already, but the aforementioned just confirmed it.
Those were the three standouts, and he knew it right off.
I am far from a Satorial kind of man, but I appreciate people who have both passion, and knowledge, as well as natural feel for their subjects, and this fellow does, so I think I am going to have to subscribe to this channel.
Thanks a million for your kind and encouraging words. Yours, Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS No, thank you Hugo for the great workl, I'm proud to say I'm a newly minted subscriber. Who knows, a little of your knowledge might even rub off on an outback bum like me. Glad I found this gem of channel.
Junghans and Nomos for the win
Good choice Scotty! Cheers, Hugo
Seiko présage cocktail Negroni , fantastic red dial.
I agree. Magnificent. Hugo
