      No one but watch people notice watches. Some people might "clock" a well known high end brand name like Omega or Rolex but even then they won't care. Just like me and trainers, you could have £1,000 shoes on and I'd not know or care!

    Citizen and Casio are my favorite two watch brands. Tissot I like, but I have to send my Couturier back in for a sticky date wheel… Same quartz movement as in the PRX Quartz. I love what Citizen is doing, got the Unite the Blue Promaster with a Jubilee braclet from Long Island Watch. I wish the bezel was a little better aligned and I wish the second hand hit the markers perfect. Casio Edifice is seriously really really good, polishing, steel, sapphire glass, accurate quartz movements, and the markers hit perfectly on both of mine. Definitely getting the Citizen 365 as soon as I graduate a truck driving school and get a paycheck under my belt. 👌🏼

    Looking down at my Tissot PRX, the only watch I own haha. I do agree with the criticisms people make about the brand though. I've got the mother of pearl dial, something you don't see everyday. It's a versatile piece, easy to dress up or down and can tick quite a few boxes. You could say Tissot function as a gateway brand into watch enthusiasm, worked for me. Would I buy another Tissot? Probably not, but I'm not sure I'd be watching this video now if I hadn't bought one. 9 months on the wrist I'm happy with my purchase, great place to start, no reason to stick with the brand though haha.

    Appreciate your takes on watch brands, I kinda think your own journey influences this. My first watch was a tissot wind up watch in 1979, when the world was turning digital( still got it) I got a Longines for my 21st( dress watch) which I still own. A citizen ecodeive saw me through 20 years of raising kids and is indestructible. And then my sub 14060m from the birth year of my fist son. My dads Omega speedmaster which he has passed down will always be special. The personal story can be as important as the brand story, and create soft spots for brands. I have nothing original in the line up, just personal.

    great Q&A love hearing your thoughts, can't understand why anyone buys a watch for someone else's opinion or attention. love the fact you are true to your own likes and dislikes. I'm sure I have a couple of watches that I have bought that I no longer like, so why would I be unkind to someone else wearing something that doesn't float my boat. I love talking to people about watches, particularly when its a brand or a model I don't fancy, I then at least understand what others see in that thing.

    THANK YOU for bashing Citizen, as I honestly do not "get it" about them anymore, because my actual Citizens BOTH failed after no more than 5 years of use, and of my quartz watches with Miyota calibres HALF of them failed as well! Meanwhile, ALL my Seiko/TMI calibres still run, some as old as 35 years!
    You also got it right about Timex. Thanks to Snoopy on the dial, I have 2 Indiglo watches now, plus a Waterbury GMT, but got them on sale for 60 dollars a pop, and they are NOT worth a penny more! At the low sale price, they have a certain charm, and I am keeping them, but they are absolutely not worth the up to 200, that Timex wants for them, whether it is the 60 click bezel on the white dial GMT model TW2U99100, that makes lining up the GMT hand impossible for any time zone not on a 2 hour increment, or the cheep and cheesy look of the Snoopy face watches!

    Omega... i just find them boring and a bit fake. I mean, James Bond is cool, but its a fictional character!! Leave it be, stop milking it. The basic seamaster is soo expensive too. And that stupid helium valve. Ugh.
    Tissot were one of my faves, still have a square ana-digi i was gifted for my 21st back in 2003. Love that. But totally put off by them using plastic parts in their powermatic movements, and their tendency to use non screw down casebacks.

Take the logo off the dial and apart from the cool turtle shell on the caseback , there’s no signature there that reminds me why I bought into the brand . For me , Certina need to be sold to someone that can take them out from the shadow of Tissot! In my opinion the brand should be a step up from Tissot with far more iconic looking watches from the past .

    You should REALLY look at the citizen NB1050-59E !
    ITs everything and more the SARB used to be! I am a seiko aficionado! I have 3 grand seikos and a bunch of presages and proxpex! This citizen and the blue variant the -12L are what i loved about seiko decades ago! Its so well done! Thank me later!
    Btw the pictures give it zero justice! Trust me! The case is just insane in hand.

  • @richardlocke7264
    @richardlocke7264 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Lol: one thing that I have noticed over the years is that I rarely like other peoples watch collections as much as my own- I think it boils down to memories, family history of the watch, tastes or preferences ( why I choose that watch in the first place). I have many vintage or family heirloom watches THAT I LOVE OWNING and almost never ware.( I have watches from 4 generations of both my and my wife's families!). I also have some very nice dress watches that I LOVE, but almost never ware. So, I disagree that if you haven't warn a watch in several month you should get rid of it. My grandfather's Hamilton Ventura gets wrist time once or twice a year for mother's day brunch kind of events.

  • @Zotrax1946

    You know, I put a lot of thought in the “what watch would I pick in a case of an apocalypse”..
    And yes, at first I made the choice of a solar powered piece- it makes sense. No?
    Ahh, I think there’s a catch! In some ‘realistic’ apocalyptic scenarios (not zombies and such), in most likelihood-
    we will be blocked from the sun🤷🏼‍♂️.
    So, if I don’t want to be dependent on an outside source, any source, I will choose a mega robust automatic ☝🏻.

    I bought a Citizen 660 watch 5 months ago. It has a perpetual calender , chronograph, alarm, eco drive, sapphire crystal, radio control, and 200m of waterresistant rating. Still i only use it for setting my other automatic ( Seiko) watches...😂. Should i sell it? 🤔 Than again i still have my Citizen titanium chronograph that i bought in 1993 ( titanium was a bit special back than).

    My issue with Citizen is that they insist on making large watches, there’s little to none in the 38mm size. I have a Tsuyosa but I won’t buy another until they can bring the sizes down.

    I understand your take on Tissot, as apart from a few of their models they occupy a funny space where they're trying to compete with fashion brands. Surprised on your Certina take though, some interesting heritage there and they're not meant to be up with Longines, so I don't get the comparison.
