Well, it's the final season of Succession and we're all wondering what is going to happen to Logan Roy's empire. Will Roman take over? What about Kendall? Shiv? GERRI?! CONNOR!?!?!?!? Who knows. Either way, there are some truly unreal watches in the show and who are we if not the ones to talk about them!

Succession has one of the strongest watch games of any recent show and I’d been waiting for someone to make this episode. Great work guys!
One little titbit on this - Logan leaves Colin (his security guy) a Rolex Daytona Lapis in his unsigned will in S4E1 - it's not mentioned, but fans found it by zooming in on the note that's shown on screen. That's a 3 million dollar watch, so I guess he does have a watch that makes a Patek a bit unimpressive
A $3M watch? Well, I never.
And probably this is the reason why Roman wanted a blue dial watch (Mark 20) in the final season!
you sure it was a daytona lapis? i havent seen the show, so i dont know, but thsts a very rare and uncommon watch. White gold+blue dial daytona looks fairly similar from a distance so maybe thats what you saw?
@@sylviabennett7787 it's written on the note, and go see the show. Plus it's Logan Roy
I disagree on Gerri. The reason she wears an AP precious metal is because she is a woman fighting in a man's world. She needs to use all weapons to appear more powerful. Shiv doesn't have to prove anything. She can be feminine if she wants to; she can be anything if she wants to. And that's the point about all the Roys' watches. They are merely 'cufflinks' to complete the outfit.
Logan Roy wore an IWC in one episode but consistently wears a Jaeger LeCoultre. Best show on TV and awesome for watches. Bobby Axelrod on Billions is also great for watches and Ray Donovan wears some cool pieces on that show.
What model JLC?
I think JLC is the perfect choice!
@@walkerb1734 Agreed! Flew under the radar but it was mentioned in Season 4 episode 3 I believe that Logan leaves a watch for his grandson, which was sneaky cool.
@@brownmcpherson5724 A Rendez-Vous. He's also been seen in a Brequet Classique and possibly a Hermes.
The article I read from Boss hunting said Billions used alot of fake watches on the show but on Ray Donovan were actually Liev Schreiber's personal watches. The Seamaster he wore on the show was actually on his wrist in a few film's
Makes me appreciate the costume designer on this show so much!
Perhaps the best episode of your channel that I’ve caught so far. Fascinating to consider what the watches convey at different points of character development.
👏🏼
Well done
This might be the rare video that could get people who don't give a shit about watches (but care about Succession) to actually spend 30 min on a watch video.
Awesome video ! Well done. Succession has turned into my new and favorite show of all times. The writing was so beautiful and in-depth not many shows can compare to the quality of succession. I myself was trying to figure out each and every watch each character would wear during the show.. all very interesting you did a wonderful job on this episode. 👍
Where has this show been all my life!! I'm so behind, but I'm streaming it now it looks awesome & great to see different watches on each character. Great analysis T&H, great upload. Keep 'em coming..
Great chat on the show Succession. It’s definitely interesting to see how certain people navigate life. They don’t waste time.
“A brutalist watch.” The watch as architecture. I like the concept.
I think you guys missed a point, The Roy family are new money. They are new to the lifestyle, this is why we see them thinking money is everything and acting as if they are more important than say the helpers around the house and such. This is drastically contrasted in the Pierce dinner where we see what actual wealth and old money looks like. Where they treat helpers like family and have so much money that non of them work but instead do literally whatever they want, which by how they were raised is to study and learn and not just party and splurge.
This to say the if the PP was given to a Pierce they would have been thankful for the thought and not so much the item instead of having the need and insecurity to undermine others
"The Datejust is a great watch. People like to forget that." This is SO TRUE. I only bought my Datejust after owning many other watches, mostly much more expensive. It's a great watch. I get it now.
Agreed, but an oyster and smooth bezel isn’t the best version
You guys did a fantastic job in your analysis of Succession watches, and the personalties behind each.
Great job on the watch breakout!! Love this format, hope to see more!! Great show, love the VCs!!!
I think it’s fascinating that Roman wears 36mm on both watches. The IWC is the baby pilot and not the Mark 18 or XX.
I haven’t watched the show so I’m not sure if the context fits. But, in Asian culture it is very bad to gift a watch particularly to an older person. Watches symbolize the passing of time and in a way symbolize death. It can be interpreted as waiting for a person to pass. In Chinese specifically the word for “clock”, not “watch” specifically, also sounds a lot like a word associated with death.
Even though I haven’t seen the show. Another parallel that I love about the watch symbolism, is that at the end of the day it doesn’t matter what watch the character wears, the time passes equally for all of them. It’s just a facade covering up the vulnerability and mortality of all of every character. They can spend as much money as they want on watches, but no matter how much money they have, they still cannot buy more time.
Wow, that’s deep..
Brilliant. In the U.S., many years ago, it was customary for a man to spend fifty years with one company. The traditional company retirement gift was a gold watch. When I retired, I decided to give myself that gold watch: a Cartier Tank Francaise.
That's weird, I'm also Chinese and I know for marriage it can be customary for parents to gift nice watches to the bride and groom. Longines was a popular choice a few decades ago but if you're better off you'd probably gift Rolex or something. I also just gifted my mom a Cartier and she didn't say anything about that 😅
In Mandarin “gifting a clock” and “making funeral arrangements” sound exactly the same. But it only applies to clocks, not to watches. And no one actually gifts clocks unless deliberately meant as an insult or a joke.
The reason budget problems never come up for characters in Succession is because the message is money is only real for poor people
You nailed the Datejust, two billionaires I know both wear 36mm Datejusts
Outstanding episode, HUGE Succession fan and loved your insight!
"I have a watch" also implies that despite his wealth, watches are just functional for Logan Roy. If he has one already, why would he need another?
Oh lawd… this was your best episode ever fellas! So great 🎉
Next up we need to discuss Christian's L.L.Bean collection.
Nah it's Eddy Bauer
I’m amazed by your analysis of Succession. Hands down
Theo & Harris Drinking Game:
"Its a phenomenal watch!"
(Drink)
"Just phenomenal! "
(Drink)
"Really, really phenomenal!"
(Drink).........
ER Doctor: "Im calling it. Time of death?...halfway through the video."
I always thought the Tom thing was more simple, he had the Cartier in earlier seasons because he was less senior/rich, he gets the AP to go with his greater status
Rom is getting more powerful in the latest episodes and started wearing RM
Such a great episode. Also...The Zero...the Hundred...Is there a connection? He who controls the spice, controls the universe!
You indulged in your analysis fantasies a bit, but surely there was some sentiment of what your saying behind the watch choices. We were all spotting them through the series too so that’s cool
Cousin Gre was wearing a Vacheron Constantin 5500 Chronograph with a "panda" dial in the last season. Awesome watch!
When I first saw Logan‘s watch in season 1 I thought Breguet (marine, classique..?)
I don't know if you've noticed it, but even in the promo photo for season four Logan is fiddling with his wristwatch, which is further underlining the importance of this piece of jewellery in the series ;)
I've really enjoyed the entire video you guys have made, but there's one gripe I have with it, meaning: you could've provided better shots of some of the watches as it's difficult to identify them by names only, and especially when they're foreign and pronounced differently to their original versions.
what an incredible idea!!! I always wondered about this. Well done as usual.
Have you noticed Kieran wears the same watch on Hot Ones, I think the DJ is just his watch, or maybe he just got to keep it after the show.
Two favorite shows... Succession and T&H ❤
Brilliant brilliant episode! And proof none understands watches from a technical and cultural perspective better than T&H!
I like how you interpret the Royal Oaks, I've noticed a trend with older guys buying these 😂
Just starting watching the show, on season 1, will be back to watch this when I catch up, brb.
The Hodinkee piece on Succession watches is a great companion to this video and a must-read for anyone interested in Succession.
Link it
I'm not really much of a watch guy, but as a Succession fan, this has been a fascinating bit of analysis/symbolism.
I think Greg receiving a gift he had to pay for is the same reason why Logan didn’t except the watch from Tom. That lesson happened to Logan. Greg is becoming Logan and Tom is becoming Jerry. I agree that theses watches have life lessons.
Very interesting break down. Well done gentlemen.
Great hat Christian, I wear the same one with my club logo (members only crest, when you know you know) worn around the world. I don’t wear a show watch. Just a watch. Excellent episode.
@Theo and Harris -- the RM is a 67-01 platinum that is relatively new, but definitely not unique!
I keep telling everyone about watches on Succession - finally someone made a video that I really wanted. Can you do one for succession and also if you can peaky blinders
One of the greatest episodes gents! Now I have to watch succession 📺
Great episode! Do white lotus next!
That was the coolest intro ever made
Did anyone notice that Greg appeared to have switched up his Rolex Sub for something different in episode 9? I couldn't quite identify the watch, but it appeared to be rose gold? Did he maybe 'upgrade' to an AP ROO?
I watched the whole series in less than a month just to watch this episode!
Great episode!
Had CC's enabled from a previous video and discovered Christian always starts with "What's up watch fam?" - I previously thought he said "What's up watch fan?" Always seemed a bit on the nose 😅
Hey guys, I really enjoy the show! Can you guys do an episode why you don't like Patek Phillipe, specifically discussing quality concerns and lack of innovation ? Thank you!
Keith Richards wears a Panthere, and wears it real well.
Greg upgrades to a Pepsi in season 4
Great content. Thanks.
Ohh not the usual intro music "tiw tiw titiw tiw tiw tiw tiw"
That was awesome!
The Murdoch family is certainly more interesting than Succession and when Rupert shuffles off, it will be stranger than fiction. Wonder what they wear is watches?
I thought I saw Connor wearing a Hublot. Makes sense for this character. Kind of a joke.
Well this was way fun and I don’t even watch TV like that but fun story telling
More content like this. loved it
Logan also wears a Breguet classique in season 1
Bodyguard/Driver Colin was willed a Rolex Daytona Lapis from Logan.
This!! He had a lapis in the vault that he willed to his bodyguard. Pretty cool.
Pretty sure that Roman mostly sports a silver dial OP.
Great episode.
Many thanks dear therapists
Nizar
😂
Watching this makes me FEEL like I’m on coke
What kind of watch would you choose for Matsson?
Great video!
Any thoughts on Matsson wearing a JLC Polaris in season 3 (the lakeside scenes in Italy)?
I see Roman wearing the blue Datejust doing press, so I suppose he either just kept the watch he got, or it was his before he got the role and just chose it for his character. I always thought the Datejust wasn't "enough" for his character's wealth.
Oh my goodness what a yapping session thought y’all was reacting 🥱😐 just keep yapping and yapping
I always wondered what kind of watch did Naomi gift kendall when he said he had a watch?
Yeah that was fun
What was that Patek in the pilot episode?
BoiZ! Y’all forgot to do wrist checks😮
Christian can you do a video on your clothes. Your jumpers are app epic
You couldn't have designed a show better to product place high-end horology 😂
Tom went from Panerai to Santos than Santos tt and then AP
I read Hodinkee helped with the watches in Succession.
Patek drops all ADs and goes Boutique, just like Lange.
you should do an update when the series end!! The election episode was crazy
Best. Intro. Ever. 😎👍🏼
“Hello, is this Christian? I’m calling from MGM Studios and need a Horology consultant for a film we’re producing…”
It’s a Breguet
Where did Michael get that fleece from?
I’m only 1 season in and find it hard to tell what anyone is wearing because there arw no closeups. Only Shiv’s Cartier and Rome’s Datejust on an oversized bracelet, which seems like a very odd choice for a guy like him
Good video
Set designers don't choose the watches. That would be costume designer.
Logan’s watch is a JLC Rendezvous Classique
What about the Richard Mille for the final season ?
Logans watch is Jaeger Le Coutre Rendezvous
Lol at Roman being the humble one. Do these guys watch Succession?
my usual reminder not to use masterworks
Idk if I agree with the characterization of Gerri. She seems like a beaten down old woman who has dedicated her life to the company but is overlooked, but has this kind of motherly presence even when using Roman’s proclivities to make her feel alive and wanted.
cool
The reason why KENDALL doesn't care about Naomi's watch is that at that moment he is paranoidly invested in finding what his kids got him and I think btw RAVA lied abt; there was no gift from kids, Kendall doesn't really give a shit abt anyones gift at the moment cause what his kids got him was the most valuable thing for him . If there is one thing other than the CEO gig Kendall really cares abt is his kids.
and ROMAN doesn't care abt watches cause some people don't care abt watches regardless of money and also he doesn't get off on normal stuff
BOAR ON THE FLOOR!!
Guys, the Art Mkt segway, worst ever! OMG...
Many of the watches especially early in the show are fakes, some quite bad fakes. In later seasons though they appear to be real though they may just be good fakes.
Logan definitely wears a JLC Rendez-vous in the first episode which is the watch often misidentified as an IWC.
