Andrew telling people to google ‘blue waffle’ is exactly the difference between this and watch finder.
And it was pure genius! 😂
Rated B for Blue Waffle
@@AndrewMorganWatches I don't know if FPJ's success is not based on the fact that wealthy people want something that is the modern equivalent of handmade custom watches from over a hundred years ago. Crafts cost a fortune today.
Wut
I've definitely heard this joke about this watch in some other video, but I don't remember where.
Andrew’s scripts are always so well written. Whimsical yet on point.
Thank you 😊
Yeah his narrations on the Wachfinder channel are truly LEGENDARY.
@@d7r_tv thanks 😁
I love those occasional one liners. They have me rolling on the floor. "Sure it's made from artificial hips" etc. 😂

Andrew’s productivity never ceases to amaze me. He runs two successful TH-cam channels and still finds time to be a sci-fi novelist, the guy is a machine.
I’m just socially inept 😅

Dear Andrew,
I am thoroughly enjoying your TH-cam channel, Talking Hands/Andrew Morgan Watches. It’s nice to put a face to your incredible wit and sense of humor.
Normally on New Years morning, I would be watching something on the tv. Instead, I am binge watching your videos. Thank you for all that you do for the watch enthusiast community.
Cheers.
Virgil
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that! Happy new year 😁
This is probably the best TH-cam channel for everyone that enjoys watches. Thank you so much for this Andrew.. this is fantastic.
From an old guy across the pond (Seattle): BRILLIANT! Of course, now we can't unsee your face, but interesting to see how you deliver your wonderfully written scripts with such pace and panache. Long time Watchfinder viewer, only found out about AMW during TB's year-end video. Great job and thanks!
I can only apologise about the face 😅 thanks for watching 😊
Watching Andrew’s videos is as enjoyable as reading the best of Clarkson’s Reviews!
Thanks very much 😁
Glad to see that you started your own channel Andrew. Look forward to see what you can bring to the watch community.
Thanks for watching 😊
Didn't know about your personal channel, stumbled on it accidentally and I must say it is great to put a face to that voice 😁👍.
I wish you a fast channel growth!!
Hey! How are you doing? Glad to have you on board 😁
Whenever I see the notification on my phone that you've uploaded a video, I'll always watch it, even if the timepiece in question isn't something I care for.
I always though no channel could do better than Watchfinder - then Mr Watchfinder himself made a channel. Nico, Teddy, Britt - just to name a few - whilst being great channels, pale in comparison to yours. Your style of presentation, that posh southern accent, the language used, the light hearted jokes - this channel is sublime and impeccable in every sense of the word.
I wish you and the family a brilliant 2023. Keep it up bro 💪
Thank you very much, that’s very kind of you to say. Happy new year!
Great commentary, as always. It is always refreshing to hear this combination of humour, interest and deep knowledge, keep it up!
I’d love to see an equivalent video, but focusing only on quartz watches. I’m gradually swinging away from mechanical/ auto movements so I’d be keen to see your take here.
Keep well and keep up the great work :-)
I second that suggestion. I've only started paying attention to quartz offerings and was amazed to find that quartz isn't limited to cheap movements with a lot of plastic parts. There are actually movements built that are meant to be repaired and maintained, composed of metal parts. Then there are the high performance quartz movements (for example the Longines VHP - Very High Performance - that has impressive features such as power savings and perpetual calendar).
Thank you so much for watching 😁
My Speedmaster (Hesalite) is probably my favorite in my collection. Glad it made it on your list. Haven't worn it in a few weeks, but it's been raining a lot in CA, and my Seamaster 300 is a bit more attuned to the wet.
Speedmaster = greatest watch in the universe
my speedy is completely fine with rain and hand washing
Thank you for giving the Bambino the flowers it deserves 🙏🏻💐
I had no idea that you have written some books. Totally makes sense given how well written your videos are. Also, I happen to own a few of the 10 watches that you have listed here.
I do love to write!
Man you got me genuinely chuckling while watching a video about watches, I’ll stay tuned for more!
Thanks for watching 😁
I could listen to Andrew forever.
Keep doing this, mate. You rock.
Thank you 😊
The writing is the best in the business. Thank you Andrew!
Thanks for watching!
Very nice selection, love your videos. Greetings from the Netherlands and a great 2023 to you!
Thanks for watching! Happy new year 😃
Happy new year, keep up the good work 🙌👌🏻
Thank you, and happy new year to you too!
Andrew and that South African chap are the only timefluencers anyone needs.
The others are just the audience on Top of the Pops.
The watch that is spot on in many ways is the inexpensive Citizen BN0156-56E. I wear it for what it's designed for - for telling the time when in the ocean. It doesn't lose a second in weeks. I love the green dial version too.
Facts! I have 2 with green and black dials. Fantastic watches
Oh gosh. I just started sleeping normal.
I can't see again. I'll stab my own eyes.
😢.
Blue waffle. Dredd fills my eyes for blindness
Massively agree with everything on this list. Now i feel like a watch expert.
Thanks, me too… almost 😂
Great list. Love the Speedy and the Black Bay. Tudor has that watch in a John Player Special color that would catch an eye from a watch nerd from a 100 yards. The only watches i think I'd add are the JLC master control ultra thin, which may be one of the most impressively subtle watches that I've seen in person. Simply incredible. the 36mm Rolex Explorer, which is kind of boring but also perfect to own if you only had one watch(same with the Omega Aqua Terra). And last but not least the Nomos Orion. If you ever see someone in public wearing a Nomos, you know they just get it.
Very entertaining commentary. Great list of watches and great energy. I'm really loving the fun nature of your personal channel.
Thanks for joining me 😁
My love for watches started with Watchfinder. These two channels are te only ones I'm subscribed to, because how Andrew tells the story. Andrew is the reason everybody loves watches and he made watchbrands billions of euro's of profit. They all should give him a watch.
Thank you so much for saying, i really appreciate that 😊
@@AndrewMorganWatches you're welcome. I really meant that and I think the majority of watch enthusiasts will agree with me.
@@u.d.7543 thank you 😊
Wishing Andrew and all his viewers a great 2023.
To suit my strange tastes I'd add
the A Lange & Sohne Zeitwerk
FP Journe Elegante
Hermes Carre H (the recently discontinued one)
Either the Zenith Captain Winsor Rodium Dial edition or the MIH watch. Or the new Mechanik2 version if not yet released watches are allowed.
Thank you, and you too!
Zeitwerk Honey Lumen
FPJ Elegante 40mm
Credor Eichi II
Czapek Antarctique S
Not a greedy man, just hoping to get 250k of watches with plenty of time to wear them.
Engaging dialogue, v entertaining, great video, I now need several hours catching up with the archives!
Thank you for watching 😊
Your vids always put a smile on my face! 🙂
Your kind comment did the same for me!
What a great video! Love the new channel!!!
Thank you for watching 😃
After watching multiple watchfinder videos, I feel like your voice is like the one from the bbc documentaries, iconic
Thanks very much 😁
Happy New Year ANDREW. You’re the funniest watch comedian ever !
Thank you, and happy new year to you too!
Everytime a cut happens in the video and your logo pops up, i chuckle because it looks like a poster for Andrew's DJ set. Keep on keeping on :)
I was going for Andrew’s 90s hypercar, but I’ll take it 😂
The Royal Oak description literally made me laugh out loud. Thank you for that 👏🏻👏🏻
😁
On point video. Keep it up brother.
Andrew - you are a treasure - know your stuff, give the facts - and make it absolutely hilarious! Thank you!
Love the channel.nIt's nice to have a good laugh whilst learning a thing or two.
Thank you for watching 😊
I’ve always thought JLC reverso is a tad too overrated and a watch with aged look until I held one in hand last week. It is indeed a spectacular watch and still holds its charm to this day ! Other than that , this list is prefect !
I have a duo, and I adore it.
@@st1tch87 beautiful piece ! Enjoy !!
first time here and about 3 mins in, it hit me that ive known you for years. so cool!
Hello! 👋
For that 70’s style watch I think the Armand Nicolet j09 is watch that’s never mentioned but it’s a beauty & u can get great discounts
The Amy Schumer joke 🤌😘🤣
😁
Love these vids, very funny, I definitely want a mission to the moon watch though.
Thanks very much 😁
Happy New Year Andrew! 😃
And to you too!
Happy New Year! May all your watch wishes come true 🎉
And also with you 😁
Thoroughly enjoyed this! Subscribed halfway through
Thanks very much!
Happy New Year Andrew.
Thank you, you too!
Its so weird seeing your face after all these years! lol
Excited to dive into your new channel mate!
Thanks for joining me 😁
Didn't expect that watchfinder's voice had a face ;) great content and cunning remarks as always, love it
Thanks for watching 😁
Love the content. Andrew what you think of Frederique Constant Monolothic?
Thanks! It’s an awesome piece. Wish I could get one to shoot.
Hey Andrew, love the channel keep it up! Was just gonna add a suggestion put in more timestamps for me to come back to the video and check out specific watches. Thanks
Additionally, I agree with similar comments, glad to finally put a face to the iconic voice of the TH-cam watch genre. Happy new year!
I’d love to but I barely have the time to make it at all 😅
You nailed this one. I can’t believe I’m
So late to this channel. I’m used to your hands a lot more loo
Hilarious!!! And I love every watch on this list! You nailed it! I only have 1 of them though, so I guess I need the other 9!
Fine choice for your favourite. The FP Journe is a true marvel
what excellent audio production my friend
Thanks!
MoonSwatch is perfect for the trash bin.
Andrew this video was nothing but class , script was fantastic
Glad you made your own channel Andrew
Thanks! My house is too small for interesting backgrounds I’m afraid
@@AndrewMorganWatches haha no worries you're not alone :) you do have sheep neighbors though lol!
@@juggyy5429 🐑 😂
hahaha weird i literally just mentioned my bambino 38 in another comment to one of your videos and then it shows up here. the bambino 38 and the seiko 5 GMT have to be my 2 best buys for 2022. they keep popping up in top 10 lists everywhere, im chuffed.
Enjoy it!
Ultimately, we all want a watch that can have timeless serviceability. If a watch can't kept serviceable then it is valueless, in my opinion. I can only say that for a few brands. Omega, Rolex etc. Also limited editions have a problem as well. There are no specific parts available. Just try.
Microbands, if they use a movement that is serviceable, then they can also remain timeless. Happy New Year!
As Always, a very Nice Video!!!! But I would discard the MoonSwatch, I tried it, and it felt crappy for saying the list. Cheaper brands like Pagani Design make better Speedmaster clones. And my favorite here is the Omega Speedmaster of which I have 19 samples, and saving to get the latest METAS- Certified with the Co-Axial Movement.......
Watchfinder voice?! Finally I see the face! Haha great content my dude 🤙🏻
Hey! Thanks for popping by to say hello 😁
Great vid! I've got the BB58 og and the 3861 speedy pro and love them both. I would also have added the Rolex Explorer, it is my favorite watch.
Great pics. I have explorer39 and bb58 blue, with SMP on the wish list. I think that could be my three watch collection
@@theblackbayexplorer5026 Awesome, I've got a 14270 Explorer from my birth year. Its my favorite. Hopefully you are able to get the SMP soon!
@@Levi_1911 birth year ?! That’s a special watch!
@@theblackbayexplorer5026 Yep! 1997
Almost toward the end of the video, realized why this voice is so familiar and subscribed immediately 😅
😂 welcome, and thank you!
Loved that thanks, I have 3 of the 10, sadly the nearest I’ll get to the Royal Oak is when I drank in it in my formative years. Good luck
😂
Didn’t realize you were the guy from watchfinder until I heard your voice. It startled me.
😂 at least it wasn’t my face that startled you!
Didn't expect to hear the voice from Watchfinder & Co.
Surprise, surprise
& I wish I couldn't (©️ Waldorf & Statler).
Surprise!
You look different to your reflection from a watch bezel! Great to see your face in HD and loved the video.
Thanks for watching! I guess reflections get all distorted or something
You could actually be a comedian😂 I don't no where you get your analogies from. But some of the funniest s**t I've heard. Iam always amazed with your scripts. Happy new year Sir 😂😂
Thanks very much 😁
I own the Tudor black bay 58, and the Tissot PRX, happy to see them on the list :D
How accurate is your black bay?
@@jw4111 I don't measure daily but I have been using it daily like a month and a hlaf and didn't adjust it yet
Happy new year!
You too!
Your Maen Manhattan video got me in a weak moment, new watch on it's way. Never going to afford a Patek/AP so why not enjoy the Genta feeling for $600. Holiday Greetings from Norway 🇳🇴
You’ll love it, it’s great 👍
The minimalist 5 second plug @5:55. No fan fare, no fuss, instant fan, instant sub.
Thanks very much 😁
Great Andrew
Another great video
Thank you!
An idea for the Watchfinder channel, Andrew. I’d love to know a list of 5 or 10 watches Tom would get if money was NO ISSUE whatsoever. I always feel he isn’t allowed to dream because he wants to stay prudent. Hahahaha
Tight Tom’s purse strings are tighter than a tight thing on planet tight. I reckon if money was no object he’d go large with a thousand dick watch, aka Richard Mille
Good luck getting that out of him 😂
@@AndrewMorganWatches 😂😂😂😂 I have a friend like Tom, I know what you mean Andrew. Sometimes you have hold a gun against his head to get an answer.
@@AndrewMorganWatches That's what I imagined hahahaha
Dot over 90 is no doubt the biggest incentive for buying the next iteration of Speedmaster. 😊
Love, Love, Love my orient Kamasu RA-AA008. Sapphire Crystal, 200 Meter Water Resistance, Automatic hacking and winding movement, unidirectional bezel, great lume, decent bracelet, and a stunning dial in the sunlight....all for just $179.99, no one can come close to that price, specs, and quality.
This is impossible to comprehensively cover and keep everyone happy. But this list is brilliant.
However I’d drop the moonswatch myself and go with F91W. And have a Sinn 556 in there.
Unexpected but very welcome surprise in the spitfire. And the AP remains king. Better than a nautilus in my opinion. Iconic, mesmerising truly special. Can’t believe you had one, then….you know 😢
PS NYD, pretty good!
Thanks! Maybe all the watches I forgot can go in a part 2 😁
Thanks for reading NYD, glad you enjoyed it!
@@AndrewMorganWatches Andrew, reading the comments, an idea came to me. We see a lot of videos of Swiss watches and Japanese watches. But how about a video strictly featuring strictly German watch brands, such as A. Lange, Glashutte Original, Sinn, Laco, Nomos, Muhle Glashutte, Junghans, Stowa, Moritz Grossman, Hanhart, etc. I recently came across an article briefly describing 29 German brands and realized there are so many that are worth learning about.
@@balesjo I completely agree and I’ve suggested the same. They have some outstanding brands at virtually every price point. I honestly think they offer even better value than Switzerland. I own 3 German watches!
@@balesjo if I can package it up into a clickable video, sure!
Love the enthusiasm!
Thanks 😊
Wishing you health and happiness and your new channel much success in 2023 and beyond. About the list, agree with the person who earlier suggested the Explorer and the Santos (I own both). But I can see one reason neither made the list - the manufacturers can’t get the size right on either of these. I own the 39mm Explorer which is both perfect and no longer available and the 40mm Santos which because of the case shape wears big but tolerable. The smaller Santos is way too small. Cartier makes this in 38mm they’d sell out forever.
@Christopher Wood -MDH- certainly - was more speculating on what the most universal size might be. Glad yours is a perfect fit. It’s certainly a classic and killer watch. Cheers 🥂.
Thank you, and you too! There’s a lot of watches that I missed 😅 part 2?
Maidstone High Street… great writing… I laughed out loud… nice touch. 👍🇬🇧
😁
Could have said somewhere abit classier like Chatham high street!!!
@@paulgriffin5120 Classier?!
I'm originally from Myanmar, known previously as Burma, and this video made me chuckle. I didn't even know.
Me neither until I googled things that happened in that year 😅
Love the channel as i learn a lot, however Andrew will you please give the prices in British squid or even better Scottish spindulicks. I dont work in American dollhairs.😆👍
BLUE WAFFLES!!!! An absolute British classic meal!
I think the captain Willard is a good shout as well 😊
"Lexus, Infiniti, and the other one"? As the owner of an Acura RDX, I'm hurt. j/k Another great video. I recently subscribed to your channel. I just love your similes and metaphors.
Andrew, you omitted the Christopher Ward Bel Canto! Shock, horror & you being a true blue Brit. Oh! And Happy New Year!
Go to Watchfinder favorites of 2022 video
Never heard of it! 😂 thank you, you too 😊
I can see him 😄😄😄🤣🤣😃😃😃😁😁😁😁😁😇😇😇😇. Well in truth I have loved the comparison you give. Like the porshe! I have loved the tune in the background in watchfinder, and there were time's when I have got irritated that you never got to the point or speak about the watch itself, I have forwarded the video many times when I got bored of your talking. But if I listen to you after awhile, I would listen to the whole thing too. And yea finally, I am now a person who repair and service watches now. Miyota and Seiko are the one I repair now. Thanks to your channel that helped me become a Clocksmith now :)
Thanks for watching!
Not a bad list! Presented in his great way!
I have been watching watchfinder for years, now the voice has a face! Andrew your voice is synomous with watches for me!
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy my new channel 😁
Omega Seamaster 300M in blue wave is killer.
Brilliant channel Andrew. Talented guy in a new light. "Harder to get than an Amy Schumer joke!"...Great line👍Good luck with new channel
Thank you very much!
Fun video. I’d choose the Rolex explorer and the Patel Philippe Calatrava
I spit my drink when you referenced blue waffle. Bravo sir.
A little slice of dessert for you 😂
Much prosperity for this channel in 2023, Sir.
Thank you very much, I really appreciate that 😊
@@AndrewMorganWatches Vive Le Grand Seiko (Nicos's Favourite Brand). btw looking forward to you pass a review on the Grand Seiko Night Birch (High-Beat, Titanium)
@@d7r_tv I actually persuaded Nico to get one and he likes it 😂
@@AndrewMorganWatches there's some hope! we pray 🥲🤲🙏
😂Love the way you talk bro!!
I was "set" on buying a no date Submariner until prices went north of $13,000.
I went back to the drawing board and bought an Omega Speedmaster and have loved it.
Can’t go wrong with a Speedy
Yeah I was looking at older ones from the 90s. Passed on a NOS one a few backs for 7K because it seemed ridiculous. Now it's between 15K-20K probably.
I'm salty.
Jaeger lecoultre master control calendar moonphase. Superb watch.
Blue waffles! I like the way you snuck that in there.
