    Isn't it wonderful when we are able to fulfill those childhood dreams as adults when we have a few dollars in our pockets? Congrats on your "bucket list" watch!

    It's strange how I had never noticed the watch Ripley wore in any of the films, I guess my horological tendencies came later. Never be afraid to geek out, your enthusiasm was infectious. You hit all the high notes, the watch just *fits* the film.

    Aliens was such an awesome movie. I think that’s a big part of why people like those watches. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I’ll leave it at that.

    I guess now I'll be starting a watch collection. LOL.

    Seiko should do a working motion tracker in a watch. Love the Alien films.

    Nice to relive past memories! Congrats on the geeky purchase :) Welcome to the 80s!! My father wore a Hamilton Khaki for 30 years, nostalgia bites when childhood memories are involved :)

    Playing Alien Isolation last year I got kind of obsessed with Ripley Jr.s watch, inspired by the twin watches Ripley wore in the original alien. It was two Casio F-100's on a black nylon band with a weird orange rubber backing pad. I had an idea to try to copy it, with a couple of Casio CA-53 calculator watches (F-100s are pretty are these days), but I could never work out what to use for the orange rubber backing.
    Lately another game has had me wanting an old digital, Metal Gear Solid V has an old Seiko Digiborg SG757, which I've nearly snagged off eBay a couple of times, but the price always goes beyond what I think it's worth to me to have one.
    Hardest of all to find in functional condition is another 1980's classic, the LCD analog watch from Blue Thunder, which I think is a Casio AA-85? I have 3 Casio LCD analogs, but it would ice the cake to have Murphy's watch. Catch ya later!

  • @andrewpoon6633
    @andrewpoon6633 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Sci-fi classic, I always forget how intense the musical score is. Really glad you got your hands on one. And thank you always for putting in so much prep for your videos, even a simple unboxing. I think my favorite Giugiaro "future 80's car would be the BMW M1.

  • @bt82
    @bt82 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Lol "I want the Ripley watch just like Ripley". Really made me chuckle.

  • @Screwlwork
    @Screwlwork 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    I got mine from Japan also. I never noticed the watch until my gf pointed out it was being released again. I love aliens. I get lots of compliments on it. I took it to the watch shop in town to get it sized and the girls made such a big deal about the design.

  • @christiano312
    @christiano312 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Please review the Casio F100 (now A100) reissue from Alien!
    Would love to hear your thoughts a history about it! :)

  • @rosscoombes3222
    @rosscoombes3222 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Steve McQueen's Tag Monaco from the 1971 film Le Mans. It's an iconic watch and is instantly recognisable due to its shape and colouring.

  • @sandbender1414
    @sandbender1414 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Super Cool watch. Have run resizing, those folded links can be a fit fiddly to pop out the first time. Love the coating Seiko put on there.

    Contratulations my friend, and a Happy New Year!!. That Seiko Looks 100 times better in the video that it did on the picture posted on facebook, very nice acquisition!.
    As far as watches in movies are concerned, I really liked Jason Bourne's watch from the movies. Those movies came out during my teen years so he's one of the coolest characters in my mind lol. He Wears a Tag Heuer Link Automatic. I do know of all the connotation Tag has these days but I would hope the movies redeem this specific model some lol.
    Congratulations on the 20K Subs. Here's to an even better 2016. "Onwards and Upwards!!"

    Omg, I must have seen this film a million times and I never noticed that watch! That's got 80's written all over it... Another purchase awaits... 🙏🏽 p.s it looks like a cross between a ploprof and Porsche design watch!
    Great stuff, this could be a weekly segment... Watches and movies!

  • @KDL917
    @KDL917 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What a cool timepiece! Everyone has things they geek out about. ;) The film came out years before I was born but it seems like it'll make for a fun viewing experience. I should go look for it!

    TGV, glad this ep is still up. Alien 40th Anniversary: Tomorrow 20:15 Odeon Glasgow. Got to be the Ripley LE Reissue. Chilly but short sleeves to be geeky and show it off. Perfect IG pic coming up. But of course the cinema is going to be full of geeks - it’s Alien! 😜

    @johnprice909 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Agree completely with your views on Alien and Aliens. What incredible movies. Alien is near the top of my favourite movies. The movies must've gripped me so much that I completely missed the watches! Now I'm going to have to re-watch them. And Giugiaro is one of my all time favs in the design world. What a fun watch to get. Looking forward to the review. Ciao, John

    The hour indicator on the chronograph hour hand subdial needs to be corrected to initial position. Just pull the crown to the date adj. position or to the time adj. position and try one of the chronograph push buttons to control the hour chronograph hand separately. That grey coating seems like titanium, "top notch" 👍😉 My all time movie related watch is the famous Monaco Heuer chronograph which Steve McQueen used on the "Le Mans" movie. Iconic for all "petrolheads" and classic Porsche enthusiasts like I am 😀👌

  • @mrcholmondeley8554
    @mrcholmondeley8554 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Fantastic TGV. This is an excerpt from a Japanese advert for the SEIKO SPIRIT (apologies for the translation):
    "It is designed to interact easily with push button on the stopwatch for the arm vertically in a State gripped the steering wheel for cars and motorcycles to prevent operation errors while at the same time wearing driving gloves."

    Good intro about Giugiaro.
    On the down side, H.R. Giger is not H.P. Lovecraft nor H.G. Wells, but if you mix them together you get something like Alien. and I agree this is one of the greatest movie.

    The 7A28 movement in the original watch was the world's first battery quartz chronograph movement. Although made for mass production, it has very few plastic parts, runs in fifteen jewels, and can be easily regulated.

  • @MrVitamincpp

    Hi TGV,
    My congrats on this iconic watch from the 80's. It's so typical for this time period. I'm curious about how it wears on the wrist. The end links of the bracelet reminds me of the Orient bracelets. Shouldn't be an issue to resize it easily. Looking forward to your full review.

    Shame Seiko didn't use new 7a28/7a38 movements as they were superbly engineered.
    All you need now is a 7a28-7120, 7a28-7020, H558-5000,H601-5050...............

    Have been waiting for this one! Cool watch indeed. I was thinking of buying one, but I realized I would not appreciate it so much, I am not as a huge fan of Alien and also I am saving for something else. But the watch is stunningly "Eighties-ish", congrats!
    When it comes to favourite movie watches - the one I can remind right now is Omega DeVille Hour Vision from "Up in the air" George Clooney wore. Don't know why, but I love this one - simple yet refined and really classy with a nice flare thanks to the inner "rings" on the dial.

    WOW..! I was thinking about getting one too..! Looks good but I will wait for the review as I would like to see how she wears on the wrist first.Imagine finding a beaten up old Breitling Top Time at a garage sale. You pay £25 for it, and then think "hey, this looks just like that watch James Bond wore back in 1965!". And then you find out it is the very watch that James Bond wore back in 1965! I think it went for around £60,000 at Christie's back in 2013. Not bad return from £25..!

    Wow!!! What a good review. The intro is IMO essential, otherwise it would be quite meaning less. Keep it up.
    Which website did you get this from?

    I am a huge fan of the movie,...I really like the watch and especially your passion for,what's become for me,an absolute obsession;horology...although I've owned a couple of Seiko's and loved them I am nonetheless mostly intrigued by haute horology from Switzerland and Germany...please keep up the good work.

    very cool, wanted one of these for awhile 👍 I guess I have two 'movie' watches. Seiko 6105 from apocalypse now and the Hamilton from interstellar 😀

    Nice watch. From the practical side, the buttons appear to be in a great position for those of us who wear their watch on the right arm.

    I have the black variant (SCED037) and it a great conversation starter. I am guessing SCED03x series house the only quartz-chrono movement made by Seiko, ever. Plus the Hollywood heritage makes it a must own piece.
