I paid my college for classes while they tried to fail me my entire time there. Why would anyone donate money to them afterwards? Best Buy never asks me for donations after I buy a TV.
You sucking in class is not the college’s fault. Not saying they get to ask for donations, but if you can’t pass a class, it has nothing to do with paying for it, unless they didn’t teach well
@@kart182I agree but having finished an engineering degree I can confirm that if you cross a teacher at any point they can make things very difficult for you To the point you have to take things to department leads That being said, there is only so much they can do without you being able to get them fired
I totally agree with this. I spent 4k on a Tudor BB58, and then 300 on a Kuoe dress watch, and another 400 on a PRX for everyday as a beater. Having said that, I will add a Longines or Grand Seiko Dress watch this year.
Good choices. When he said "$5000", I immediately said "Tudor". Of course, if you're a dress watch guy, Tudor's not a great choice, and in that case I would actually encourage you to look at Grand Seiko, they have a surprising number of watches (quartz *and* automatic) that retail under $5k, not to mention the gray and used markets.
Fantastic video guys. Such a pleasant surprise to see another Q&A up so fast. I also wear things that aren't popular and I love that Christian does the same. We are cut from the same cloth my friend. Looking forward to the next one👍
1. The Traditionelle is a different line than the Patrimony for VC 2. The Patrimony is ludicrously large for a dress watch 3. The Lange Saxonia is better, imo.
There are some 42mm Patrimony, the watch he featured is 40mm, that’s large for a traditional dress watch, but hardly ludicrous and not uncommon in the industry these days. The also offer smaller watches within the line. The Starry Night is spectacular, but in terms of design aesthetic, Patrimony is a beautiful dress watch across the board. Personally, between the two examples shown which are good representatives of each line, I’d take the Patrimony, the curvature of that dial does it for me, particularly compared to the Saxonia. Completely subjective
@@waterfordrs22 I was only aware of the 42 mm version, my apologies. And I do like the overall aesthetics of that particular line, but would opt for a Lange. Now vintage VC dress pieces are a completely different story altogether
I enjoyed the video, but Christian... why 3 ads? One mid video ad about straps, one ad as your outro and your squarespace sponsorship. I use YT Premium but if you are not and YT adds 1-2 other ads, this video gets to the edge of viewable.
I like the Ferrari California. Good pick! My grail car is a Ferrari Dino. I’ll realistically never own one, but I’ll love my dog (Dino) which I named after it far more:-)
I’m a 50yr old British guy that’s into watches and I really enjoy watching T&H’s videos and listening to Christian and the guys talk watches, cars, clothes etc etc and I’ll tell you why. It’s great to see a young team doing well and strive to better their lives and reach for the top. Are there bigger problems in the world?? Do these guys care about these pressing world issues?? Of course they do….. But I come here to get away from all that and just listen to someone talking passionately about something else. I have learnt a lot from these guys over the years. Good job all round with the channel guys.
Catholic Studies major? Damn Christian, I like you even more now. Between you and Britt the WatchGringa being people of faith, I'm finding a lot of commonality with some of my fav watch personalities. Keep up the great content!
If you want a great polo coat look at Spier and Mackay out of Toronto. Great cut with fantastic fabrics and an overall great value coat. Much of my closet is devoted to them as they source leading industry fabrics, but don't break the bank.
Seiko was the first to release the first. Still i cannot get my head around how many of releases commemorating older watches look nothing like those. Still quite a nice watch. Priced a bit high for a solar imho. Thnx for another nice video. Stay humble!
You unfortunately confused the Patrimony and Traditionelle which are separate watch lines and look not alot like eachother. They separated the model lines like 10 years ago. I assume the OP meant to compare the VC 82172 with the Saxonia.
I bought a Jean Richard dress watch. It was about $1K. And I am so happy with it. It came up at Bonham's auction, and I had never heard about them. But it felt good. So I trusted my feelings. There are so many excellent watches out there.
I find the reverso without a subdial to be incredibly boring. In fact, I think any reverso or Cartier tank emphatically needs precious metal to be interesting. With precious metal, they really catch the eye
My dream is a tiger eye Santos medium with grand Seiko finishing. Imagine Cartier, with its flowing ergonomics and classicism, combined with GS attention to detail. One can dream.
California T sports a twinturbo newer generation ferrari engine. Chop off the T and the statements holds more merit. black California is definitely not an eye catching ferrari choice but a great car nonetheless. Truth be told there is nothing about it to make it better then any other great sports cabriolet. A much more respectable and cooler car would be a 991.1 turbo cab 911. Why own a ferrari with all the headaches and potential service issues and not own a "good" one. The porsche will look better and come with less headache (and more speed)
The California just looks too much like a Maserati to be a respectable Ferrari. Now, the 360 Modena F1 is a great car and much more attainable…. And doesn’t look like a ‘bitch’s car ;)
Fun video! Now for likely an unpopular opinion, but modern supercars are douchy and ugly, lacking true style. Give me a GTB 4 cam, Daytona, or 250GTO any day over the hideous modern Ferrari.
I never understand the college/alma mater while paying 10s or 100s of thousands and they still want donations. Like didn’t you make peoples lives hell and then expect loyalty? It’s like you have to lick boots to become a Rolex customers. F that! Also Cartier is starting to be a little too pricey. More value other places.

@Brade0 you paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to have a feud with your professors? What a fucked up world.
This is the simplest realization that I have never considered. You’re 100% correct.

Mute
‘Duh-no’
„Right?!“

Agreed and the movement finishing on the Saxonia is a higher tier than VC. The market for both are soft so you can get them at a tremendous discount

Glad you enjoyed my man
If New Harris passes away mysteriously will Harris Classic come back? Just asking questions.
Interesting video but I did lose track of the "ya knows"

Love the car talk!!
Christian, you should look at the GTC4 Lusso. Black with tan interior is a classic. V12 4 seat tourer.
Regarding the Ferrari, the F12 is the one ☝️ if you like that grand tourer vibe. Less racy. And the V12 is unbeatable.
Waiting for that longines legend diver 39mm green dial bronze version 🤤

They are in the Same collection linked together online. Patrimony seems to be a subcollection…
I took a loan out for college and still paid for it. Never gwve me a dime when I was there. Told them as much when they asked for a donation.

What can you say about the Hamilton Intramatic Chrono?
This is not an anti Sam post. I like him off camera though. Kind of like a narrator.
Cartier's greed seems evident, thoughts? 💭💎
Nope. Saxonia Thin is better.
Great watch!
I'm ❤ talking Michael instead of Christian
Just kidding 😂
period end
great vid apart from the obvious mistakes
The California just looks too much like a Maserati to be a respectable Ferrari. Now, the 360 Modena F1 is a great car and much more attainable…. And doesn’t look like a ‘bitch’s car ;)
I can only buy vintage Cartier. Feeding the current corporate machine is wrong.

Christian's mind is blown when someone tells him that $5000 watches exist😂

Like didn’t you make peoples lives hell and then expect loyalty? It’s like you have to lick boots to become a Rolex customers. F that!
Also Cartier is starting to be a little too pricey. More value other places.
