      Haha thanks mate. I think my favourite is Hesili on this one.
      Yes, France is next. Then I'm thinking of maybe China after that. China gets a bad rep for watches. I think I'll set myself a mission of finding some cool Chinese Microbrands.

    The fact that you don’t have RGM on this list is a travesty. And, if you’re going to put Ball on there, why not Hamilton? Myrick Keaton is also a beast, building his own amazing watches. Also left off Weiss and Shinola. Bone up before you post videos, bud.

    • @TopTierTicker
      @TopTierTicker  Год назад +6

      Okay Ross it seems that you're new to this series of videos so let me fill you in.
      I mostly feature affordable and lesser known brands. RGM and M Keaton is extremely pricey, Hamilton is one of the biggest brands in the world.
      Weiss and Shinola were close to featuring but did not.
      If you thought that I just whipped this list together on a whim and don't know anything about watches then you're very mistaken. Although your comment is extremely condescending. I thought I'd educate you on the videos that we make here.
      Bone up before you post comments, bud.

      @@TopTierTicker Okay…
      1.) Thank you for replying to my comment.
      2.) You put out a video every 3-4 days. I’d say you’re “whipping them out” - trying to work that algorithm.
      3.). If you’re going to be a RUclips content creator, you need to develop a thick skin… you’re going to get criticism, and you’re going to get condescending comments. Do you think Archie Luxury became Archie Luxury by getting mad at constructive criticism. Let it roll off your back.
      4.). Your video is titled “10 American Watch Brands you should Know.” It mentions nothing about “10 affordable American Watch Brands you should know.”
      5.) If you’re going to mention Ball, you should have created an entire category about brands like Hamilton, IWC, etc. Shoot, make a video about how America used to be the epicenter of watch making before it switched to Switzerland.
      6.) RGM, dude. Just admit you fumbled on RGM. They are THE American watch brand right now.
      7.) In all seriousness, I apologize for my condescending comment. I’m sure you work hard and try your best.

      ​@@rossfryer3902Jesus man, he's NOT forcing you to watch his videos or asking what you think. If you think you can do better, then go right ahead.
      I've been into watches for almost 40 years, but I still learned about a few new companies from this video. And I don't have to agree with everything he says, but I don't have to attack him because we disagree about something.
      And this is only the 3rd video I've watched of his, so I'm not some butthurt fanboy. But I've been in the live audio recording world for almost 30 years and been online for even longer, and there's ALWAYS at least one person spreading negativity. So I guess you're that one guy for this video hahaha 😂
