Anything from Colorado will last ages good leather for great value. Tommy Hilfiger is also decent but will cost a bit much. Hermes is good as well. Bellroy is nice and sleek but also expensive. If you want handmade Morrison made leather is a great American based maker. Also the man is lucky to have someone like you all the best and excellent selection of watch.
I bought the limited edition night time tokyo for myself for Christmas and it’s a beauty £480 but I paid £360 in the Black Friday sales it was a bargain.
I just got the Brew Retrograph Technicolor on a blue strap. What a belter of a piece for $375 USD! Classy, elegant, 60's inspired chronograph... count me in!
The Tissot PRX Qaurtz “Turquoise” actually has a way better dial IMO, so i bought that it’s nice to have 1 grab and go watch that you don’t have to worry about setting and winding.
Glad the Brew Watches made it on the list. Been a fan for about two years now. Amazing watch/es I have the watch in this video. I can't wait to see what the future holds for this brand.
I just bought my first mechanical Swiss watch yesterday, the 40mm Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 with the dark green dial. I'm going to pick it up today and seeing it in this video makes me even happier about my purchase. My passion for watches wouldn't be where it is today without you Nico. Thank you for everything!
I got my Speedtimer for less than 500 and I love it so much. It never leaves my wrist over more expensive pieces. Considering picking up a second Panda🐼😂
The moments you make such as getting gifted a watch and making memories is the best gift you can receive because you can share it with generations to come
Loved the video again. Just bought a Tissot PRX with the bleu/purple dial and love it. Watching your videos inspired me to build a watch collection. Keep up the good work.
Happy to see you give Certina and Mido some attention. In future, what would you think about Edox, Glycine and Revue Thommen. Oh and Vulcain? Thanks for some informative videos.
I've had a Mido Commander Day-Date, in the same color combo shown in this video, for four years now. It looks fantastic, has a good movement with big power reserve, and very comfortable on the wrist. I love it. Hard to see in this video, but the hour markers are all bevelled, so light plays off all the markers slightly differently. Highly recommended.
I have 2 prx's, a blue quartz and the green automatic and I love both of them...I have the two tone tsuyosa as well, all very nice watches. Out of curiosity, how does Nico feel about Bulova watches?
Love it! Got myself the exact same Tissot PRX colour this year. Never heard of Brew but man their watches are bonkers! Was planning on getting the new Seiko GMT, amazing watch IRL!
Hi Nico! I recently discovered your channel after getting interested in watches and wanting to start my own little collection. I haven't found any of your videos yet mentioning the watch brand "Festina". Some say it is mostly popular in Spain and Germany. A Festina watch I found was the F20034/2 which really caught my interest. Is there any chance you could mention Festina and/or have a little review on it? Even if it is just for a few seconds in one of your newer videos. Or just a reply on my comment, anything you'd like 😁
I would recommend the Tissot Seastar Powermatic 80 T120.407.11.051.00. Absolutely my favorite watch I own. Shiny, transparent back, an automatic with crazy accuracy. I worn the watch for about 5 weeks and it is only 45 seconds fast!! Also, when you dive you can adjust the bracelet so the watch will fit around a wetsuit. (The Tudor Black Bay S&G M79733N-0007 is still my ultimate watch though)
It does looks good. But for me, being a titanium, diver with rectangular indices, reminds me too much of a Tudor Pelagos, with a sprinkle of Rolex in it due to the Mercedes hands.
@ can’t agree, since it’s kinda reissue of the Citizen 52-0110 which is diver from 70s. For mercedes hands however I can agree, but again, they were trend for divers in 60s and 70s so it’s valid to have them if inspiration is model from that period, even if they are firstly introduced on sub. Digging through Citizen historical will show you great models they have and affordable 28800 bph movements are pefect for watches for up to 1000e range. I will agree that rotors are loud on Miyota movements, however still better than crappy 3hz powermatics.
@@stevan367 As a reissue, it is faithful. Just like the Pelagos is a reissue of Tudor Submariner Snowflake, which is an "homage" to the Rolex Submariner. The original Citizen is probably heavily inspired by the Tudor Submariner 7616/7621 from 1969, around ten years before the 52-0110 was released. And since Rolex is arguably the first company who put Mercedes hands on a dive watch, fashionable or not, it's still an homage to the Submariner. I mean, it's a solid watch. Though, a reissue of homage of an homage.
Love mido, especially their ocean star line, Commander and belluna are good too. Tissot and mido are my favorite budget automatic lines. Though they and Hamilton are all swatch owned
Ngl - I recently decided to up my game and get a proper watch again and that Seiko GMT was on my shortlist. Then I come across this video on my lunch break and see that you have it in your top 10 watches under $1000... Decision made!
My next watch was going to be the Seiko Speedtimer SSC911 but now I've seen the Nevada Chronograph..... phew! What a watch. Well played Nico, well played.
😂 as soon as I saw that Mido I went online screen shot it and sent it to the wife.we will see what happens in 8ish days 😏.Merry Christmas Nico to you and your family thankyou for the epic content this year👊🏻
maaaaaate, cheers to the Seiko GMT nod dont forget seiko makes that GMT with a banger of a polar dial, even if it was only a JDM release. the polar dial is cleeeeeeeean
Great video Nico, if I demanded one of those watches for Christmas from my wife, I would find a fry pan imbeddèd in my head. Merry Christmas to you and your wife, and beautiful children. Spoil them all while you can. All the best from my family in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island BC Canada.
Let me gift u a Hublot as a christmas gift
Just give money 💰
What hublot is under £1000?
I’d happily take one as a gift idc all jokes aside
😂😂😂
@@imrantahir1678in Poland u can have some hublots for around 4500 PLN witch i think is under 1000 pounds
Nah that second picture from the hublot odoo ad was hilarious
I was dying
Nice subliminal
6:44
I'm subbing cause that
Thank you for your incredible appreciation and great feature, Nico! Hoping that you have a great holiday ahead! -Jonathan
Legend! ☕
I'm heading to your site right now to have a look after seeing this video.
Beautiful and Unique watches! Will be a buyer 👍
The Hublot boys at the 6:43 mark are classic. 🤣
Lol.. that equals to a lump of coal in your stocking 😂😂
Damn, thanks for that, I first skipped the ad read, but then went back because of your comment. 😂
@@aravnjak lol I did the same thing 😂
Ahhh a Snoopy Christmas themed watch isn’t a Christmas watch?!? 😂
I love how it's still a watch promo photo :D
Tissot Gentleman is a hidden gem, looks amazing and exceptional experience to wear.
i've got the openheart, love it and wear it and enjoy it more than my sub.
I just got mine today.. it’s an amazing watch for under 1k
I like it way more than the prx. Timeless style. And no integrated bracelet, so you can easily swap different straps. 👍
I DESPARATELY want Tissot to release a 37~38mm version of Gentleman 😞
Yes but to big..
So glad you included Brew in your list.
I'll choose the second watch for my boyfriend Paul, just need a good leather wallet that can go along.. Any recs?
Mashallah 🥺❤
Anything from Colorado will last ages good leather for great value. Tommy Hilfiger is also decent but will cost a bit much. Hermes is good as well. Bellroy is nice and sleek but also expensive. If you want handmade Morrison made leather is a great American based maker. Also the man is lucky to have someone like you all the best and excellent selection of watch.
Go with Italian.
Haha, that ad though 😂
Seiko Presage goes pretty hard, and looks super good imo.
Yep them and the cocktail times are great values.
I bought the limited edition night time tokyo for myself for Christmas and it’s a beauty £480 but I paid £360 in the Black Friday sales it was a bargain.
I think the seiko alpinist could easily be on this list
Absolutely. Built like a tank. Such an amazing everyday watch. Looks good on an oyster, President style, jubilee bracelet, and really any strap
@@eternalmemrilooks good on a bund strap as well.
100%
Baby alpinist is the don
honestly from a distance yeah but I was quite disappointed when I tried it on
6:44 think thats a sublim message from nico, old boy finaly coming out of the closet 😂😂
Think his staff are asking fun with him 😅😂
What closet, he has been out, proud and loud forever.
Glad to finally see you acknowledge Certina. I hope to see it in the next tier list.
The hublot cameo 😂😂😂 6:42
Had to go back and watch it 🤣🤣🤣
Was waiting for the Seiko....and you didn't disappoint. Seiko is pushing the bar for watches under $1000. Bought them and they are crazy!!!
My next Seiko is going to be the Baby Alpinist. I love the green dial and cathedral hands. It's under $1000 too.
Nice to see you talking about Mido. I bought a Multifort TV Big Date for my graduation and I really like it.
Man, that Mido commander is gorgeous. I've followed Mido "lightly" but I've never seen that one. Fantastic!
Tried a big date TV on the weekend... unfortunately did not suit my wrist
They do a line called the Belluna which are similar to the Seiko Presage and Orient Bambino series.
9:22 the editor had fun on this one LMFAO
Just got the Mido Ocean Star 39 as my first mechanical watch and I am loving it.
Mido Ocean Star Tribute here
I just got the Brew Retrograph Technicolor on a blue strap. What a belter of a piece for $375 USD! Classy, elegant, 60's inspired chronograph... count me in!
Hamilton jazzmaster open heart is my favorite 1k watch!
PRX is my favourite design ever.But #8 and #9 look absolutely incredible and I’m glad i’ve finally liked something else too.
#10 Seiko. The Last ⌚️ that I bought this year. Absolutely love this.
Thank/ Nico for this year.
Regards from 🇵🇱 Poland 👊👌
Longines Presence automatic white dial pre owned imo is the classiest and best option under $1,000
Opinions from football fans….no thanks
@Rubeless That makes no sense....... Could you tell me why you have this opinion? 😁
A nice seiko is much better.
@@magnuscarlsenbutdumb Nonsense
Your smile never fails to convince me to watch your videos.
The Tissot PRX Qaurtz “Turquoise” actually has a way better dial IMO, so i bought that it’s nice to have 1 grab and go watch that you don’t have to worry about setting and winding.
Thanks for declaring you are Gay
Glad the Brew Watches made it on the list. Been a fan for about two years now. Amazing watch/es I have the watch in this video. I can't wait to see what the future holds for this brand.
The best Christmas gift is when Nico uploads again🎉
Glad to see the United CEO doing well
The way he says now kills me every time. Narru! 😂
Bulova super seville with their super accurate 262khz sweeping second quartz is also note worthy
I'd add Lunar Pilot from Bulova as well. They have some class options at reasonable prices. You just need to know what to look for.
I was looking for this comment. I just bought the gold one. It’s so nice.
I have a green face and silver/white face and the presence on this watch for under 1k is ridiculous. I get tons of compliments on these watches
I have the Tissot turquoise the exact one that you showed beautiful watch ❤❤
We just not gonna talk about 6:44 😂😂😂 and how fast you skipped it to the next slide 😂😂😂
Just bought a panda speed timer and I love it 🤙
Great video I love it.
Let’s go back to the video when Nico didn’t know who MIDO was. 😂😂
MIDO since 1918.
Total belter of a video. I’ve just forwarded this to my lovely lady. She can pick any of them and I’ll be happy as!! 🤙🏾
Ahh class! I picked up the seiko (10.1) a few months ago for £380 and it's been my daily wearer watch, love it. ❤
Just bought watch #10.1 based off this for myself for Christmas. Looks the business 👍🏼
This is the exact video that I needed haha. Except it’s a personal Christmas gift for myself
Love my Nivada F77, Mido Ocean Star Tribute, AND Seiko 5 Field GMT (White). All high-value watches for the price!
I just bought my first mechanical Swiss watch yesterday, the 40mm Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 with the dark green dial. I'm going to pick it up today and seeing it in this video makes me even happier about my purchase. My passion for watches wouldn't be where it is today without you Nico. Thank you for everything!
Thats the one I have! I wear it everyday!
I laughed out loud at that Hublot ad 😂
Haha the last field GMT Seiko was my first watch! Good to know I had good taste😆
Just had the prx carbon, and already have the Certina, some cracking choices there...👏👏👍👍👌👌
Those Brew watches are such a vibe
Might have to pick one up
Nice, I received the ssk023 for my birthday 💪🏼 brilliant watch.
I got my Speedtimer for less than 500 and I love it so much. It never leaves my wrist over more expensive pieces. Considering picking up a second Panda🐼😂
Ahahahaha, here he goes again with the TUR-KWAH.. 🤣🤣🤣
I think that Seiko GMT has the same design as the "Black Grape" but on a different bezel.
Oooh MIDO, finally!!!
I have the Commander 40mm, love it, my go-to watch to go with a suit🎉.
Some of the older Commanders are nice.
I’m happy with my original Hamilton Murph. Not too big to me. I even like the black strap.
Loved the variety, perfect for my Christmas wishlist! 🎄
Odoo present was maddd😂
Love MIDO as well. Bought a multifort 42 mm antracite such an amazing watch. Going for the patrimony next.
Love that Mido and Certina were on the list.
The Odoo advert had me 💀😂
I’m glad you’re reviewing watches for us brokies. Now start doing give aways because my wife doesn’t want me buying any more watches right now 😂
The moments you make such as getting gifted a watch and making memories is the best gift you can receive because you can share it with generations to come
Wife bought me a Tissot Seastar for my 40th, my 2nd Tissot and i love it
I just purchased the Prospex last month! my fav on the collection.
Loved the video again. Just bought a Tissot PRX with the bleu/purple dial and love it. Watching your videos inspired me to build a watch collection. Keep up the good work.

I recently bought the hamilton khaki with the brown leather strap. So nice!

Lets get stuck in.....lol

The Hublot ad got me 😆
I have the hamilton khaki murph.. love it! Belongs in my collection of omegas n rolex
I got myself a speedtimer a few months back, what a watch!
The Hublot skit reminded me of the cinema editing scene in Fight Club 😂
okay this is legit list, im getting that tsuyosa
Got the hamilton for over a year now and absolutely love it!
The nivada watch looks gorgeous and those #10 seikos are already on my wish list!
Seiko speedmaster is so good
Nice to see you you've painted over that white mark 😉
Slide the hublot boyfriends in real quick haha amazing

Wearing that last Seiko now, lovely watch.
I think that something like Citizen NB6021-68L should be on the list.
Beautiful titanium 41mm certified diver with 9051 movement.

Loving the consistency Nico, watching all the way from Zimbabwe🇿🇼
Bought a 1940's Zenith at auction for 300 bucks and a Casio F-91W in pink, couldn't be better for Christmas
Mido, Nivada, Certina and Seiko🔥
Love mido, especially their ocean star line, Commander and belluna are good too. Tissot and mido are my favorite budget automatic lines. Though they and Hamilton are all swatch owned
Thank you for this video. This is the perfect price range for me and helps me out so much
Great list, definitely think Christopher Ward c63 sealander is a stunning looking watch for the price.
I got with my Timex or Casio. 😎 No idea if it makes me look rich. I just like them.
I love my Seiko presage, people always think it's more expensive for than it is
The maen hudson is my favourite from the list

Just go buy it.

love my Miro, looking forward to see more Miro content!
maaaaaate, cheers to the Seiko GMT nod
dont forget seiko makes that GMT with a banger of a polar dial, even if it was only a JDM release. the polar dial is cleeeeeeeean
SSK023 is one banging watch. Add a Long Island watch bracelet and it’s 👌
That’s was a really reasonably good list! Kinda surprise Nico knew any watch under 5k😂
