Thanks mate! Orient and Seiko are prettu much the kings when it comes to affordable automatics😎 Nice, have you been in Finland? I’ve been to Italy twice and absolutely love it!👌🏻
8:08 That’s the reason why I’d never get an Omega Seamaster diver. But outer AR coating on a pilot watch makes sense to me because I assume that visibility is more important than scratch resistance for the watch. Idk about the resell value but if I’m gonna be sure in my heart that I’m not gonna sell it, I wouldn’t mind a few scratches on a real pilot watch that got its priorities straight.
Nice to see your collection! I recently bought a watchbox for 12 watches. So far I have 7 watches: 3 Seiko solars and 4 Citizen eco drives. My plan is to fill the box and then be satisfied with what I have. And maybe letting two other brands share the box with the Seikos and Citizens. Of course: because I always carry a watch my total amount of watches will be 13.
Thanks for sharing! What models do you have currently? Which two brands are you planning to let join the Seikos and Citizens? Haha only time will tell if you'll be able to be happy with what you've got... I thought that when I filled my watchbox with 10 watches (or maybe I didn't even think so haha!)
@@NordicWatchChannel My current collection is: Citizen: AU1043-00E, BM7251-53L, BM7430-89L and BN0191-80L. Seiko: SNE530P1, SNE525P1 and SNE529P1. I am leaning towards getting an Orient Bambino, I really like the design. And I will probably get my first automatic, some of the Seiko 5 Sports but have not yet decided which one. Models I am interested of: SRPE51K1, SRPE53K1 and SRPE77K1. By the way: within a few days I am actually waiting for a very special watch. My intention is to post a video on youtube with my collection, including that watch! And it's not a Citizen or Seiko. I suspect you are right about the difficulty with being satisfied with what you have and not get any more model. There are just too great watches out there! And the more I search the more watches I start to lust for...
Cool collection! You really do have a lot of solar watches! I really like the color of that SRPE77 you are thinking about. It would be something very different from the rest of your collection! The bambinos have nice designs yes, only problem could be the size. Never bought one myself but I have handled several. Just too large a dresswatch for a wrist like mine (6,5 inch). But that's a matter of preference! Very cool, I'm looking forward to seeing that video of your collection!
Great collection especially the sinn. They really do make great watches. I'm going to check out the Invicta review next, I don't own one but it's a Brand I have been thinking about purchasing from. Thank you for sharing your collection. Peace Out!
Thanks mate! I really love the Sinn. Goes great with any kind of strap. Oh yeah do that! Hope you find the Invicta review useful :)! I should get around to a new state of the collection again soon.. many changes lately!
Thank you very much! All I can say is: great choice. It is hands down my favorite watch I’ve ever owned after owning about 40 different watches over the last couple of years. It gets the most time on my wrist by far😎
Haha yeah! It’s a good looking piece. It’s a bit on the larger side.. but Seiko has done a re-launch of that model with the new Seiko 5 series and I think it’s a bit smaller than this one and it looks great too!
Nice collection, buTful Sinn, I have 2, a discontinued 956 Chrono Klassic with no AR coating on top, and a U1 which does and I agree with you. Back to Sinn for refinishing or new crystal. Don’t know that many 3rd party’s that do AR resurfacing.
Thank you! Those are 2 really nice watches! Never heard of that first model before, interesting color on the dial. Almost resembles a lumed dial :D Yeah I have no idea what that would cost but I'm pretty sure that it's not worth it for me.. The scratches are not large and they remain hidden in most lightings.
I am also building up an collection. But I am really not interested in movement of watch, that is why I buy quartz. I just like the design and beauty of watch. Nice collection
Nice to hear that! Nothing wrong with that my friend. We all appreciate and prefer different things. The only thing that matters is that the one wearing the watch likes it :) Design and beauty is a really central thing in a watch. The movement is arguably just a small detail compared to that!
Nice collection. I had never seen that seiko snx245 and it is small. I have the 4 colors of the snk800 and my wrist is 7 inches and it looks small, the 34mm one will look smaller, but still I think it would have a Vintage style because of its size.
Thanks mate! Which color of the snk800 so you prefer? Yes this one is even smaller, but it has kind of a cool ”functional” military look. Reminds me of authentic old field watches, which used to be really small!
@@NordicWatchChannel Black is the preferred one, followed by beige and blue and finally green. Each one has its own but black looks better. I forgot about red, although that is already very rare to obtain. And it has another number SNKM95.
@@Javysayajin I was guessing black would be the preferred one! I wish my snx model would be the black dialed version too. I didn’t know that red version existed! Interesting😁
Haha it doesn’t! That’s a good question. If anyone has an answer to this, tell me! Personally I can have a watch sitting in the box for one month straight without being used. I just choose my watch according to my clothing and errand. Then usually if I use a watch that has been out of rotation for a while, I use it a bit more for a while😁
Hai, I looked up the sinn and it was listed as 38.5 mm in diameter, does it wear smaller or larger than it actually is? What is your wrist size? I'm 23cm and I want that sinn, just kinda worried it would look comical on my wrist 😅
Hi! Well first of all pilot watches generally wear larger than their size if compared to other watches because the bezel is usually narrow and the dial is thus a large portion of the diameter. The 556 is still a small(ish) pilot watch, which is one or the reasons I got one. My wrist is 16,5-17cm and the size is pretty spot on for me with approx. a 46mm lug to lug. Searching for pics I saw that it looks fine on some 20cm wrists but didn’t find pics of it on larger wrists. Might take some getting used to but it all depends on what size watches you like. What watches have you previously owned?
@@NordicWatchChannel Thanks for replying! Gshocks mostly gx56bb and a mudmaster. Bought my first seiko couple of months back, a flightmaster with 42mm case diameter. It looked a bit jarring (understatement) on my wrist, but I love the watch. Wanted the sinn so I can sell all of my other watches and just have a set of sinn. I looked up this sinn model online and they were mostly reported as tough watches, but none of the reviews shows the sinn on a larger wrist. The sinn looks so good that I'm contemplating losing weight just to have a smaller wrist, hahahaha.
No prob mate I always answer😊 If you are used to G-shocks it will def feel small at first. There are a lot of very cool pilot watches that are usually too big for wrists like mine and the Sinn 556 is one of the few that is not. You could for example look at Damasko they make very rugged and durable watches in 40-42mm I think! I’m sure you would get used to the 556 as well but the shock might be smaller with a watch that is a little bit larger..
Damasko is not available where I'm from, but they do look good. Thanks for the info, might hunt one down if the sinn doesn't pan out. You're right, I don't think I can handle more shock than when I put on the flightmaster. I love the darn thing, but it looks like a penny on my wrist. Anyway, thanks for the reccomendation man. I appreciate it. Subbed. Looking forward to more content from you. Cheers!
Yeah if the flightmaster looks small I can guarantee that the 556 will look tiny. I’ve tried a flightmaster and it’s borderline too large for me to wear😂 glad to have you along for the ride! Hope you end up with a great watch, let me know what you end up with!
Haha! I noticed while editing that all my watches happened to be on bracelets on this video. I do like them and use them often, but this video maybe gives a bit of a wrong impression😁
Why are you embarrassed about owning an invicta? You were curious about the watch. You bought the watch. You like the watch. Who cares what the “standards” to a watch collection. You worrying about what people think makes you look weak here.
Hi! Believe me, I’m not embarrased about it at all. Might have come accross in a way that made it sound like that. Fact of the matter just is that I pretty much bought the watch for the purpose of reviewing it. It doesn’t really matter to me if someone likes or dislikes my collection. I like my collection and that’s all that matters.😊
Being a watch youtuber myself, I acquire some watches in order to review them and generate traffic to grow my channel. Personally I divide my collection in two sections: my personal (long time) collection and then watches that are interesting and I want to review for channel growth. Every now and then, my personal collection gets changed. But that’s not nearly every time I get a new watch in 😊
Valid point. One thing that influences this is the fact that many of my watches are in my collection in order to make a review video, and since my channel is so small, I pick watches that will produce search hits. Once my channel is larger, I’ll probably start to make more oddball additions :)
Very nice collection man 👌👍! I'm a fan too of Orient and Seiko, among other Brands... love Finland! Cheers from Italy 🖐🍻
Thanks mate! Orient and Seiko are prettu much the kings when it comes to affordable automatics😎 Nice, have you been in Finland? I’ve been to Italy twice and absolutely love it!👌🏻
I had the snzg13. Movement randomly broke after barely 2 years. Never damaged it or anything. I don’t buy cheap watches like that anymore
That’s a bummer.. hasn’t happened to any of mine yet. But I have heard of that happening every now and then👎🏼

Yeah.. I have this Sinn for the rest of my life (I think). It doesn't really bother me anymore since you barely ever see the scratches.
