    This is why I love this channel. Brilliant video production with high quality shots. Perfect music selection. Short, yet potent content, with a perfect blend of subtlety and emotionally piercing messaging. Literally teared up thinking about setting my GMT before leaving my family and looking at the GMT hand while traveling and wondering what they’re doing right at that moment. Bravo 🙌🏻

    My cat was freaking out after a storm and I played this video for her and it totally calmed her down. And in other news, I’m picking up my Batgirl GMT today from my AD. Can’t believe I got the call after 2 months on a list.

    We love it because such elegant beauty was never made for the wrist before this watch.
    “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?” Not with this watch. Because it compares only to all the beautiful days in every season.
    Just gorgeous. As this video.

    God I love the music in these videos.
    The subtle sadness and "calling home" of the music is a perfect juxtaposition to the GMT Master.
    Great job, Oisín, another banger.
    Edit: to all those asking for the song, it’s Je Te Laisserai Des Mots.

    From the dulcet tones of the voice over, twinkling piano accompaniment, close focus photography all intertwined with emotive storytelling. A masterclass in why we love our watches. One can only imaging how long it took to produce this. Well done and thank you!

    This is the Oisin we loved long ago, walking the streets of Italy, thoughtful, contemplative, and ever the romantic. Carrying on a love affair with timepieces to spend our lives with, in prosperity and wealth, in hardship and loss, at rest and at play, sharing the richness of life and this gift of time.

  • @nicholaswilbur2113
    @nicholaswilbur2113 Год назад +8

    As one that travels extensively for work, you hit the nail on the head. My gmt collection began with the forgotten 42mm polar explorer II that I adore and has now expanded to the marmite sprite and hopefully the Batman on jubilee and rootbeer soon. One can hope. This is the content i enjoy most. Thank you.

Thank you yet again, Oisin, for another masterpiece, and for bring that experience to life.

    One of the most beautiful backdrop s for a video showcasing those peices. Spending over 35 years of collecting has paid off for me dealing with AD'S because it allowed me to aquire the Pepsi, batman, rootbeer, black and the Skydweller all in 2018.

  • @watchwarrior8597
    @watchwarrior8597 Год назад +4

    Oisin, this was one of the most perfect laid back but invoking videos you’ve done.
    A combination of old and new but hitting on the mystique behind the GMT design and function .
    The music, scenery and use of color, lighting and shadows is as always amazing.
    What I like best about this video is that you handle the latest iteration of the 40mm GMT from the 116710LN to the 126711CHNR and just how everything about this class of GMT is just the perfect watch, be it the Espresso, Batman, Rootbeer or the iconic Pepsi.
    I only hope that you can continue with your amazing Watch and History Videos as they are true works of art, each and every video that you meticulously, edit and produce are just outstanding and amazing.
    Thank you Oisin for everything that you have done for all of us who are subscribers to your channels .

    My first GMT was the TUDOR M79830RB-0001 BLACK BAY GMT, I got it a few months after the Basel fair. And the following year I received the call from the AD: the ROLEX GMT MASTER II - REF 126710 BLRO had arrived… I wear the TUDOR GMT on holidays, for the beach, swimming. The BLRO I wear it 5 days a week. The jubilee is very comfortable! Love how the colors on the ceramic bezel change with different light! Bought the TUDOR tax free and paid full retail price for the ROLEX, not one cent more.

    The GMT Master, 16750 was always my work watch. The office was 60 feet underground and we live local time and Zulu time. It made sense because it had dual time and was tough as hell. Another great video, I do appreciate your art. Please, keep them coming.

      For years my office was at 25,000’; I was a C-130 navigator. That black-bezel GMT master has always been my grail. I retired in ‘20 & I don’t have a need for a GMT anymore…but I’d still love one!

    For me, my espresso was my first ever Rolex in 2009. I’d begun traveling extensively for my career and the second time zone made calling home to check in with my wife and kids a true partnership between me and my watch. It’s those connections that make this the one. I’m now able to afford whatever Rolex I can get from my AD, BUT this one will always be the favorite and will never leave my collection!

    I just watched the Interstellar Video you made. Beautifully done Sir. Space Odyssey and Interstellar are my two most favorite Sci-fi films. Saw Space Odyssey when I was 11 years old.

My family has kept a subscription to National Geographic Magazine since the first release, I always noticed most of their photographers wore the GMT Pepsi. So I looked at a Pepsi GMT as a watch for adventurous, well traveled men. Plus Magnum PI wore one.
