The GPHG should have awarded TheWATCHES.tv a prize for the best horology channel in TH-cam -- not only for this year, but for the past few years. Marc, thank you for the quality and passion you devote to your videos. Keep up the magnificent work!
I dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know a way to log back into an instagram account?? I stupidly lost the password. I would love any assistance you can offer me
Marc, I absolutely love this kind of video! I particularly like the new categories to bring heretofore unrecognized watches and watch manufacturers. Great job!👍
My TOP for 2018 is the Grand Seiko manual winding SBGW231. For all seasoned watch collectors, no matter how many watches they owned, top of the their list would be manual winding watches, and this has to be what the connoisseurs called the True Three Hands mechanism. For those who are new, the True Three Hands has a long minute hand, and an even longer second hand. You have to see the SBGW231 in person to see how wonderful the watch is. The zaratsu finished hands and indices sparkle like diamonds on the equally beautiful custard dial. It runs more than 3 days and only off by a second in that 3 days. We can even take Patek for comparison. The Patek manual winding watches are mostly either with 2 hands or have a sub-second hand. They reserved their Three Hands mechanism for their top most range, and they cost a fortune. The vintage inspired SBGW231 only cost 3,000USD new. That's why it's my TOP watch!!!
Fantastic coverage as always, Marc André. I didn't know you were neighbors with Akrivia, that's awesome :) Looking forward to the amazing videos you are preparing for the future. We are not worthy
Great work. I really like the part where a new entrant to the world of watchmaking is handed over an award from a guy who won a similar award many decades ago.
Bovet deserves this price for sure. Congrats to them and I am very looking forward to the next timepieces. For me , bovet is the brand of the Year.. period
I knew that Bovet would win! Look at that stunning piece, it’s dedication... it’s art and it absolutely deserve to win. They’re not trying too hard to create something unique and new, they just tried to do better. Plus, the way mr Raffy delivered the message and philosophy in every piece of Bovet makes it even better.
Great video. I can only dream about most of the watches that won - only the Nomos is attainable for me. That Van Cleef & Arpels is just spectacular. Amazing technology and artisanship. Looking forward to the coming videos. Well done to Marc and the entire team.
I like your video's very much. Not only are they very inspiring, but your narration is extremly passionate. I am interested in your robot friend next to you. Is it possible to give him some stagetime?
Ok, this will shortly be done and in the meantime here's a video we did about it a little while ago: th-cam.com/video/cEuXXqzi_dM/w-d-xo.html Best to you
Thanks for the link and intent. I thought i saw all your video's but obviously didn't. I am in awe of the MB&F scifi clocks. Never knew these existed. They are simply stunning and inspiring!! Thanks again and already the best wishes for 2019 you and your (youtube)family!
Must say that so many watch brand exists on this planet...it wud take long time to remember just the names ;) Loved the concept of some of the awarded pieces..kudos !!!
What an awesome video ! Marc Andre, as promised earlier this year, you’ve brought out the best in the world 🌎 of watchmaking with all the videos you’ve made so far. I suppose they’ll also come up with a category in GPHG for the best journalism in the field of Horology
Hi Marc... thanks again for this video. Great coverage / summary. Some great pieces and unknown brands... wow, bovet really went out of the box - quite “Harry Winston ish”
Merci Beacoup Marc for the great video. I think they should make a separate awards for time pieces under 1K, 2K, --10K and have maybe awards for best new comers (new micro brands).
Nice time pieces and all Congrats to all winners...Where is Patek.?.Where is Jaeger le Coultre...Where is Mr. George Kern with his New “Breitlings “...I really miss Schneider Family how they run their Breitling Company and yes it was Big Bold Thing however they weren’t Cutting Quality rather Kern’s Quantity.. Cheers
there are lot of watch lovers among general public, meaning people that are unable to afford luxury watches... it would awesome if they would introduce few more categories dedicated to low price ranges.... this show only perpetuates notion that watch lovers are snobs, which is shame
I understand your point and it's a pretty tricky question, I mean where to place the line between art and obviously much more affordable watches, but has to be done.
A few were really nice majority not my cup of tea. However technically I feel quite amazed for most of the watches that won... please don't let any digital watch make into any categories
Seiko should have never gotten award for the fake limited edition 1968. Fake because the watch uses the same old movement Seiko uses in their cheapest watches (SARB033 for example). Organizers just wanted to include Asian brand without caring one bit about anything else. Seiko makes amazing watches and true limited in production, but I am guessing Geneve cares little.

Would be nice, but will never happen, unfortunately... But I like your idea!! Thanks
This channel is so fantastic and seemingly everything is done with such detail. Highly regarded yet forever underrated

Bovet is the king over all. One the best pioneers ever. With authentic designs , own soul and very very exclusive. . Holy life to the king. Greatness.
Super well deserved award for them!

@@watchestv-com pardon, a Thewatches.tv video can't be long enough
Speaking of the general public: The exhibition of the competing watches at Geneva's MAH is an absolute treat. But pssst...
That's very true!
Singer just so happens to build the most beautiful Porsches ever to exist.
Incredibly sexy cars for sure!!!!!
What about the one you liked the most?
a video of unobtainable grails.....for now. Good one, Marc!
That's right, one never knows what could happen!!
Nice time pieces and all Congrats to all winners...Where is Patek.?.Where is Jaeger le Coultre...Where is Mr. George Kern with his New “Breitlings “...I really miss Schneider Family how they run their Breitling Company and yes it was Big Bold Thing however they weren’t Cutting Quality rather Kern’s Quantity..
Cheers
All these brands are not participating... and understand your point of view!
Хорошие часы. Не для простых смертных. Элита сама себя любит, сама себя награждает.
Who would had thought that someone from Luxembourg would be the one to do so much for the industry.
Switzerland is a big melting pot ;) All the very best to you!!
Where is Patek? Good Award functions for new brands and encouraging more brands.
They don't participate any longer at the GPHG unfortunately... Best wishes for 2019!
VIVA WATCHMAKING !!!!!
That's right!!!
Where are the end of the robot's legs in the background?
Will do a special soon ;)
