Every year, we look forward to the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève event! While there are many interesting categories to win in, today we're diving into the the Challenge category, a category that requires watches to be equal to or under $3,500. We take a look at all the past winners, and give our thoughts and opinions on each one. Who needs the Oscars, when you have the GPHG baby!

Sam is really blending into the conversations now. Substantial improvement, great insights, and entertaining, nice work Sam! Love the videos.
Thank you really appreciate the comment!
Keep it up Sam…. Relax be yourself!
Long long time fan. Always loved your videos and takes. Thank you for making bad days less bad.
That laptop looks like it’s made of vantablack
You guys should do a video where you each vote a watch for the best of a certain category that came out in 2023.
That would be fun to watch. Include Ana, Christian’s dad, etc.
Can't believe I watched a 20+ minute ad.
I love your videos guys, and I make videos myself, so I get your motivation behind this. But an undisclosed ad that's 20+ mins long isn't cool.
If you think this is a 26 minute ad, you’re the dummy for watching till the end
Keep up the good work Sam!
CIGA Designs: Can you guys come up with some content to help us move the rest of these watches?
T&H: WE GOT YOU DAWG!
I own one and I still agree that this is a paid advert from Ciga…SMH
@@mastermindmanagement6190 I really like these guys and the channel, but how little they seem to give a shit about how their choice of sponsors reflects on the audience's perception of them is kind of strange, especially considering how savvy they seem to be in general, media-wise. Maybe I'm just old and stuff like that matters to me more than it does to younger folks.
rethink where you put the laptop on the table.
for 3500 I bought a vintage Piaget Altiplano, now that is a watch!
This felt like a ciga was the subject and the rest was the narrative scaffold counterpoint crafting
Just want to thank you for your constantly interesting content. I enjoy these long videos a lot, thank you!
Now that I know Sam is an 8AMer at SPACE from the last video, he's my kinda guy. #teamsam
Another great vid!! But who else is seeing Jon Snow and Samwell Tarly??
Great conversation guys
Raymond Weil has been killing it for years. Their watches are literally as good, if not better quality, than a lot of the players in the 3-6k range. Go hold a Maestro or Freelancer (diver or skeleton) in the flesh. The quality is so apparent.
Maybe rethink the laptop placement - it kind of obsures what's going on on-screen :)
The Ciga looked way better than the Patek Worldtimer shown after
Brands understand that if they can create a little bit of hype and artificial scarcity, they can leverage consumers’ desire to participate in conspicuous consumption. That’s the ball game.
I think the Behrens rotary was in the running in 2020. The Black Bay feels like another piece of swiss cheese to the rotary's burrata.
Saw the RW in flesh yesterday and its a lot better than it looks in photos. Clinical execution. Not my thing but way better than 1st impression online.
The Tudor BB58 is at 4k MSRP currently. You can get them under 3500 used for sure. Was the BB58 under 3500 msrp in 2020?
yes
Yep
Yes
I just got the Oris Pro Pilot Bronze... #1 watch in this price range
To be honest within such budget vintage is the way to go. There are plenty of vintage breiltings, tudors or even full gold Piagets.
Where’s Anna
The black laptop case looks like the video is blacked out in that section. Just FYI. Might want to change the color.
My watches are called "watches of Oscar" 😁😄
I have a MAD1 Green coming sometime this year 😊
Do you really have no idea how Chinese “company” can sell this at such a low price?
Because they are not gouging you with 25000% profit like the Swiss
@@divertiti I find your naïveté about what China is like a little sad and scary
Ciga was a business decision for GPHG. Who do you think funds a large part of the Swiss watch industry?
What proof do you have
This video is an ad within an ad within an ad.
What else was in contention for that award this year?
CIGA sponsored this vid LOL.
Where’s Anna?
Christian, please give Sam his jacket back. It's clearly too big for you, and not everything on the set is there for you to take home.
If ciega makes one with the USA on the globe, I’d buy lol
America is on the back side. I think China is saying that America is the "bottom" of the World.
What do we want? MICHAEL
When do we want him? Now
This dude better imo
Michael is best. The other dude just smiles like an idiot
@@kross123damn, calm down, sounds like you have something for michael.
Where did Christian get his flag sweater? Love it!
maybe ralph lauren?
Yes. Ralph Lauren. It's made in China.
Christian, I take exception to your comment regarding the Ciga Design watch, I sent you a message a long time before you knew it was coming. I demand respect, after all, I am a watch lover and I did tell you.
I demand respect, although I would never wear the Ciga Design,( I don't like it) , because I'm an American and as an American I only would buy a.....wait for it....Swiss or Geman made watches, lol.
After all, I was born in Germany and raised in Italy (mom is Italian). But I am American!!
And I demand respect!!
In all honesty, I would never ever wear a watch made in China....except the Ciga Design, lol
I demand respect, I did tell you about the Ciga Design.
Wait; you do have ESP....right? I did send you the message mentally. ☺
Did you eat paint chips as a kid?
@@ChrisKellyPrime
Lmao, I was just joking around with Christian.
Did you read the complete comment?
@@ChrisKellyPrimeAre paint chips a thing? That doesn't sound at all healthy. And why would someone want to eat them? Do Americans like eating paint? Is it tasty? Do you cover it in red coloured sauce?
@@verynormalman Did you hear a whooshing sound as the joke flew over your head?
@@ChrisKellyPrime Nothing flies over my head ever.
To message a sent ever you person smartest the I'm
46mm Panerai? 😂
AGAIN, Sam is fine. Michael has both a life and profession outside of this channel.
So, stop whining.
Tudor BB - Meh. Don't make me laugh and dont kid yourselves. It is desired by no one that doesn't really want a Submariner.
Ciga Blue Planet- Nice work other than the case, but engineering and manufacturing credit where it's due for mere the price of a Grand. Lose your xenophobia and grow up. The Chinese know what they're doing and they're just getting warmed up. Watch.
Max Booster MAD1. A monstrosity that serves little purpose other than as a limp flex or conversation starter. Oh, and there's nothing brilliant about it, Theo. It's clever at best. See, it is possible completely dislike something (insert ANY Hublot here). You don't have to always find something you like about it.
Raymond Weil - I like vintage too! A nicely realized, thoroughly unoriginal knockoff of Longines & Omega.
GPHG awards are pay-to-play. This isn’t something that GPHG hides, but the awards don’t consider every watch that came out in a particular year, only watches from companies that pay to compete.
This commercial for CIGA is not cool Christian.
Yeah lack of transparency in advertising hurts the brands and brand promoters. I found this frustrating
How do you propose one talks about a product (and aren't scathing) where people aren't going to think you are sponsored by them? You better get yourself off RUclips.
This clip was seemingly produced for the entire purpose of promoting CIGA, because they paid for the privilege. That's fine, but it should be labelled differently. Assuming the Theo and Harris video brand is something they want to protect. I want to spend time with Michael and Christian and the new guy is okay and will get better. And I may watch and enjoy a 20 minute commercial for CIGA too - but not when I feel tricked into it or that they are trying to slide in commercial content by deception. Makes me want to tune out.@@proctermorris6657
Dump Christian and keep Sam and Michael
Love Sam. Bring back Theo too
Theo is next to him. Harris is gone
I was kidding as the names are made up and predate Michael. 😂
@BWen3 I do understand the joke but thanks for slowing it down for me.
@@cardinalj you’re, welcome!
Why oh why dont you show the watches more than your faces??? The whole time or at least half the time you could be showing the watches. We can hear you ya know. Honestly would make these infinitely more tolerable and I wouldnt need to arrow key you out of the way.
This is giving off paid advert vibes.
More of a biohazard symbol
Good content
Get him out of here
Dear Theo
I noticed that you are a genuine American patriot ,but still in love with Italy . Will you dare to revew hidden great watches from Venice? Pls give a chance to the booming Italian brand Venezianico . I believe that they deserve your unbiased great reviews.
With great admiration and appreciation
Nizar
Israel
I have the Ciga, it only ok. How much are Ciga paying this pretentious #%^
In what world is the black bay 58 3500 dollars? It’s more like 4500 dollars. You’re wayoff the mark with this video.
Oh God. This smiling dude again.... Please bring back regular couple
Bring bqck Harris!
Yo we get it They already addressed it Stop the hate Enjoy the content
Get a life!
Yeah Theo really lost his spark back in 2022
Pff. College graduation watch? No, that's Nomos' territory. Actually, I'd be so happy, I'd probably get my kids at least Omegas.
Im sure he’s got to work on his own enterprises
