    Brilliant video, super cool content and I'm sure more to come with the same approach, in different locations, Ireland and Europe. Can't stop watching it!

    Love the views of sunny Venice.
    The Willard has a lovely case shape. I’ve been fancying the Olive Green version recently. Very nearly went for one.
    That Omega World Timer looked great. Maybe it was a tad large? Those Bvlgari Octos though. Just amazing how thin they are with the micro-rotors being made even thinner!
    Another great instalment in your holiday video diary here Elton and Ben. Can’t wait for part 3!!! ✊

      Cheers Tom, Octos are amazing. Willard is definitely a level up from skx / turtle, unfortunately it’s also priced accordingly. The worldtimer is just too big, sadly. Hopefully there will be a part 3, tour of the watch shops

      @@WonderofWatches By the way, I must say what a beautiful introduction to the video the piano player was. I loved the way that you faded her playing into some other fitting music to change the scenery of the video. Nice production. 😉

      Ah Tom, you say all the right things my friend. It’s one of my favourite pieces of music by Tchaikovsky- Pas De Deux from The Nutcracker. I noticed it was in the same key as the piano version of Shallow so I had to use it.
      I spend days trying to find the right music and then you are always battling with copywrite laws, which I think I’ve infringed this time. Thats why I normally use synth led copywrite free music because it’s safe to use and still has some attitude. But again, once I noticed the keys were the same, it was a must. Ben

    Great to have another true Irishman on board TH-cam for watch reviews. Classy review too

    Good one. Shades of Oisin - being in his (beautiful) city. Seiko (I still wear my1971 automatic Seiko - Date I got for my High School Graduation) are a pretty good deal. While the blue not my fave here (I kinda liked the "vintage black" actually. That one just looks "useful."

      Hey thanks for watching. Yes, I subsequently sold this and bought an original 6105. It’s currently being serviced

    I hope you are going to produce more original video's. This is a carbon copy of the Timeless channel. Same shots, same location, same music, same everything. Ever been to Toscany? Ever been to the Cote d'Azur? Come on, Venice is already covered. Even the Timeless channel gets tedius so now and then already. There are a 1000 stunning locations in Europe alone to do interesting video's. How about Ireland? You can shoot footage at home....tell stories, get into Irish history.
    Come on man, you have all the gear, do something original..!

      Cheers Rene. I couldn’t copy TTWC even if I tried. Timeless is next level

      You certainly tried very hard. If you like this guy so much, why don't you interview him in his much loved town? Have a laugh, have a drink, show what you have on your wrists and more..
      Talk watches, talk woman, talk Ireland, talk whatever comes up first.
      Have a nice time over there and share a bit of the fun.

      @@renebense we did Rene, but you don’t need to film everything. I’m home now anyway. I know where you are coming from and I genuinely appreciate your feedback. It’s very constructive and you’ve hit on something I intended to do anyway.
      Tbh, I’ve used classical music but this is a document of a trip, includes a lot of talk and personal takes on watches that don’t appear on timeless and I feel the pacing is very different and aligns with my previous content.
      I appreciate you watching and taking time to give feedback, Ben
