Funny thing is I visited a pre-owned watch dealer and 3 out of 5 watch trays mainly just had Rolexes. And most selling for retail price or under. So many being dumped in the grey market!
I bought a black dial version. It was one of the the greatest moments of my life as I saved 10 years to buy that watch. I flew from Amsterdam to London and took a coffee after 3 hours went back. Now I can do a little research and hopefully find out what what she is worth.
How did you grow your portfolio to $55m, I'm impressed, I have a lump sum in the bank, the rates are not impressive so I'm moving it, what's your cash flow like?
Idk I wouldn't consider an IWC Portugieser Chronograph to be a watch you "should just buy" without a second thought... It looks a lot like a fashion brand watch and doesn't have any chronograph / racing / space history like many other chronos at lower and higher price points.
Having 2 dreams, 1st to start my watch brand. 2nd Andrew Morgan 🐐, the first to review my brand collection. I consider this comment as the biggest step to make my dreams comes true 🤞
"The work we love -- the hand jobs -- is what's needed to finish." This is why Andrew is the GOAT! I burst out laughing while out riding the subway on that one.
I am fortunate to have a small eight watch collection, my favourite is my late Fathers 1972 Seiko 5 with a blue face, my Mother purchased it with her first Salary working for MOD which was remarkable as she had Polo from three years old and spent her life in a Wheelchair, being a Woman in the 1970s in MOD was hard enough as it was, I had the watch serviced and cleaned, and it looks like new. ❤
Andrew Morgan is the Dave Chapelle of TH-cam watch personalities. You come for the watch recommendations, but you stay for the interesting puns and digressions.
I just gotta say that you are one of my favorite reviewers on TH-cam. I haven't reviewed a watch in a couple of years even though I have purchased a few but I rather watch channels like this. Keep up the great work!
Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the amzwatch, its specs for price and clean looks, now am looking for a dress watch to add.
@@AndrewMorganWatches since going independent you’ve created some of the most authentic and batshit crazy watch content on TH-cam.

Love to see Dan Royter's work on here, still regretful I didn't pick up one of those when they were a little cheaper than they are now. Stupendous value though.
nkuwan You are so well-informed about luxury watches. You've obviously done your due diligence and the comparison to the US is very informative...because of course, I live in New York. thank you very much
Wow that Royter DR-02 is nice and first time in ages I have not heard of a brand before in the watch world. Anyone know what type of cutting/engraving tool he was using in the video? Cut like butter through the metal from 18:08 onwards.
I bought the Chopard a few years ago with a 35% discount, fantastic watch. On the wrist it looks as good as anything you can buy. The movement is the only place where you can see where the money has been saved over the pp or ap. Never had even a tinge of regret buying it.
I'm reading New York Deep, and instead of my own voice inside my head, I'm hearing it in your voice instead. It feels odd, but still works for me. So far, so good.
I went for the Shunbun about 1.5 years ago and while I still often wish that it was a bit more pink it is a fantastic watch. Dornbluth sounds pretty cool, and had not heard of Royter before but now I am interested!
As one of the people who most definitely "has trouble remembering a single number for an entire day" I wish the watch enthusiast community would slow down the crusade against dates. I wish I could live without one since no date dials look better for the most part. Unfortunately, when I wear a no date watch I keep looking at it for the date all day and get frustrated. There is no universal truth in this debate. You either want one or don't.
These AMW videos are a classic template for any who wish to engage and hold an horological onlooker’s interest . I’ve listened to you through ’Watchfinder’ and am impressed with your development of your content and presentation of same . Your offerings of details about any of the watches you present are cocooned in a meticulously precise swaddling cloth of childlike love and wide eyed enthusiasm for the makers and engineers of the watches , and a dreamlike sense that we all share the same desire (to know the history and development behind the smallest components in ANY watch) . Having listened to you probably about seven years ago and inspired by your enthusiasm, I bought a Dornblüth . Your enthusiasm was not unfounded . My enthusiasm for the Dornblüth upholds and sustains yours . You’ve reawakened my desire for another . L gooru
I jumped and had to rewind when you gave a shout out to Hyun Bin and Crash Landing on You. Don't get me wrong, I love it. I was just completely caught of guard, LOL.
This has to be the funniest post I have seen you put on here yet. You are truly the Rodney Dangerfield of watch reviewers. Soooooo many incredible one liners that I lost count. Thank you Andrew for all your reviews and channel. You made my day! LOL!!!!!
In 2000 I was new watch hunting that and the IWC Portugieser was on my short list. It made it to the semi final. Iirc It was msrp £3,195 which was about the same as the concurrent Daytona with the Zenith el Primero movement. Back then the Daytona was the only Rolex you couldn’t walk into a dealer and buy. The rest you could get 9% off. How times change. I went in another direction altogether but still love the Portugieser Chronograph.
I picked up the SRPK89, the new black SNXS from an Australian AD on a VIP off for AUD399 or USD265 a week or two ago and it has barely left my wrist. It is an absolute joy to wear on my 7.5” wrist 🖤
Awesome video. I love Monta, oak and Oscar, studio underdog and Baltic. They are awesome. However I also agree that Trafford should have taken the cake. Great video.
Great job, and humorous delivery. I really didn't think Andrew would find success so quickly with his own channel, but I was wrong. I can't wait for a new post.
I was planning on visiting a Cartier AD today. I woke up this morning and watched this video. Went and bought the Cartier Tank de Must. Beautiful! Now what do I do Andrew? Awaiting further instructions…
Nice! Which version did you get? I have a solarbeat large myself and it's my most worn watch by far. Got a few straps for different occasions and I'm set.
I like your videos, they contain humour, are well written and expertly delivered. This video was no exception, except the funniest thing you said in this, was the price of the Cartier Quartz. That made me laugh out loud. Well played. Good job I don't need to go to the bank for a mortgage.
Andrew, T4YC. My Rolex journey. 1) No. 2) Well OK, but only to wear for work in the US. Gamma) No. Sell the dirty bugger, and get something you actually like. I am old enough to not require any validation from anyone, anymore. My wrist, my watch.
Whats your view on the frederique constant highlife vs chopard alpine eagle? Between the perpetual calendar (fc highlife) and a simple three hander chopard alpine eagle, which one would you choose?
I’m on a 8-16 month waiting list to get my Rolex OP41. Definitely worth the wait! The IWC portugieser definitely on my list. Too many watches, not enough money 💵😫

Anything over a year is way too long. 16 month's is rediculous. That is a over a year of your life where you don't get to enjoy your watch. I rather buy one on the used market get it within a day or so.
@@MrPleers Lol. It’s not “ridiculous”. Being on a waiting list isn’t stopping me from living my life, of buying other watches for that matter. It’s easy. I have the watch on order. When it comes in, I buy it. Not the end of the world. People really hate Rolex 😂
As soon as I have a thousand pounds that my wife doesn’t have a better use for, I will be getting a Seiko Alpinist GMT. Just love that watch and IMHO offers amazing value for money.
I come here for my dose of comedy, and you do not disappoint, Sir. That said, you're bang on about the OP. It's very much the only Rolex I'd consider because it's still somewhat of a Rolex, rather than an Invicta-wannabe. That said, I took that cash and bought the Bun. Along with three other Grand Seiko's. The thing is that I have many watches, including a Santos and Nomos, but I am really hard pressed to come up with a reason to strap anything else than a Grand Seiko on my wrist every day.
Great video but some of these watches i wanted a good look at and all i got was fast moving b roll of the side lol And honestly the only one on my list is the blackbay. But thats just me. 😂
Went to Rolex last week to buy a watch. They said “No”

Sounds like a fab watch and fab parents - a watch to be treasured over all others
Best writing by Andrew to date. Simply awesome.
The IWC Portugieser Chrono is under appreciated and under valued. Such a beautiful classic piece.
Dornblūth is the star of this video.
I agree wholeheartedly, an absolute gem of a watch. One day….
Absolutely. I’m on the list. Can’t wait to get mine.
Didn't even know about this brand, first time hearing about it and intrigued

Grand Seiko... That's exactly the color of the cherry blossom. The lightest pink possible, almost pure white.

Outstanding writing & a fantastic selection of watches. Particularly the (mostly) unknown Dornbluth. Best TH-cam content there is!

at home and doing my daily winding of my Dornbluth. Long wait but worthwhile
Thanks a lot for keeping up the spirit!
Andrew’s watch comments are making me believe my wife has been slipping psychedelics into my afternoon cup of tea.
😮
Things are starting to get very weird with a very dry British sense of humour.
How long before he makes comment that is wildly inaccurately miss interpreted by an American 😮.

“Just recently the media was very interested in a whole bunch of famous people wearing silly outfits.” 😂 😂 AM, you’re a gem.
I came to hear about the watches. I return each time to hear that funky bumper music
I love my Rolex watch. Its working past 12 years with precision not one second off. I am lucky.
Literally just bought a Tank Must today! Even more beautiful in person 😳
What size?
You did not.
props to you for being one of a few that spelled "Tsuyosa" right
But can't pronounce it
22 minutes of pure fun (and reconsiderations)! Thank you Andrew :)
And as great as the Alpine Eagle, it's greatest attribute is the fact that Chopard know which way the VI should go.
“The last one is definitely a watch on this list” 😂
it's also the 10th watch on this top 10 list (shocking!)
That Seiko and IWC are my choices! A real beater and one for the moments!

Dornbluth wow! What a buying experience if you could go to their shop. And Royter’s detail is fascinating. Two new brands for me. Thank you sir.
The Grand Seiko SBGA413 is pronounced “shoon boon” as in “moon” instead of the short vowel in “sun” despite the funny spelling of Shunbun.
i was pleased when he said "Suyosa" instead of "Chuyosa" like other reviewer but it seems my boy still got a long way to go lol
Unfortunately his pun of "not shunning the bun" wouldn't work then... he'd have to say "don't shoo the boon".. which actually makes sense.
If it is shunbun then you have absolutely no clue about the language.

Good job Andrew! I never tire of scatalogical humor and pretty watches.
My 4R36 Seiko 5 Sports is my most accurate (and by far cheapest) watch, at +0-1 sec/day.
You got extremely lucky. Most of mine run like absolute crap.
