Couldn't help but notice there was only one "affordable" option in the video, and I think some viewers might appreciate another option: Citizen's Promaster line includes the BJ7100-82E (multiple color variants). A solar GMT with rugged, classically functional looks and a steel world time bezel, often selling for around $300 or less.
Orient makes a very nice and very affordable world time watch as well.
Is that a retro reissue with the globe design? Too big for me, I think, but worth adding for sure.
Feels like the $25 watch was added to this video just so the title can be "From Affordable To Luxury", even though all watches (apart from the $25 one) are more luxurious than affordable for most people.
Agreed, the TB concept of "affordable" is generally more like my maximum spend, but this was definitely pushing even that definition.
Unfortunately a world timer really is one of the more expensive mechanical complications. Even a number of examples here fudged it by throwing a a world time bezel instead of the actual functionality of a jumping hour hand. There is a technical different between a world time complication versus just showing a bunch of time zones at once. It's an interesting and one of the more potentially useful complications for some people, but damn is it an expensive one to actually do.
World timers are my favorite complication. I used to travel a lot for business, so I collected a few of them. My Lange world time in rose gold is probably my favorite watch of all time. Love that watch. Sadly, as I get older, my eyes can't really see all the world time features of my watches without reading glasses. My Breguet world time watch looks nothing like the one in the video. No map, just numbers and city names.
Sounds like you have a fantastic collection. Enjoy them, my friend!
The worldtimer is hands down the coolest complication, in my opinion. Love that FC, especially for the price.
would agree, too bad the FC has the size of a frying pan... Love the Breguet as well, it stands out !
@@MasterSam85 42mm is the size of a frying pan…? Lol that’s like slightly on the larger size of average? I’ve never in my life heard someone say 42mm was unreasonably large.
@@philorgneopolotin8762 well now you have. Looks like you haven't handled a lot of watches, especially this one. Figures dont mean much when you dont measure dial size on top. a 42mm diver with a large bezel will feel smaller. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
42mm for a dressy watch is too big, looks like a mall watch. 38-39mm would look really classy.
Great vid as always. I travel a fair amount and have clients and family across 10 timezones. I have to admit that I use my phone to deal with this but on my list for travel is a JLC Reverso dualface - it's just magic.
Great video, as always, Teddy! Speaking of a modestly priced GMT caliber with world-time function, I have the Tissot Heritage Navigator 160th Anniversary with a white dial and love the vintage look of the watch. Although, at this point you can't just pick one up off the shelf anymore.
That is a nice one. Unfortunately, they discontinued it. Hopefully they revisit in the future.
The Omega Worldtimer looks breathtaking in person. A video just can‘t do it justice.
Awesome review Teddy! The Omega Aqua Terra WorldTimer is beautiful and you can't beat the price when compared to the competition in the same class.
Wears too big tho
@@jarradmoore6939 If you have a small wrist yes! Wears great for me!
Every time I see a Junghans watch, I want it. I love their design style.
They are not for everyone. You are usually in the camp of I love it or meh. You probably can guess the camp I am in.
@@TeddyBaldassarre For me it is the watch wear time which helps me decide which watch to buy and which to avoid. That is why I have let go of over 1K USD budget watches. I do street photography and definitely sport a watch all the time and I don't want to draw the wrong kind of attention.
I have the Omega Aqua Terra GMT Worldtimer… stainless on blue rubber strap… love this watch !
Thanks for highlighting the World Time segment. Love them!
Surprised we haven't done anything on them in the past.
Don't forget about the JLC Master Control Geographic: the cities are partially hidden behind the dial to make it less busy.
One of my favorite complications is the world time, but it's hard to find a proper world timer with a smaller case. There are a couple that were not on your list which are fantastic world timers, the jaeger-lecoultre master geographic being the main one. It has that disc which accounts for daylight savings which is really cool. I picked up one for a great price a couple years ago and love it. Out of the ones on this list, my favorite is probably the IWC or the nomos, though one my one complaint with the nomos is that it's difficult to get it with a proper bracelet.
The Omega World Time (Aqua Terra) is stunning to see in person. It comes in metal bracelet or blue woven strap. And no two dial maps are identical. Frederique Constant's World Time comes in several dial color schemes.
The Omega looks stunning indeed. The deep blue just pops in between all the metal.
Another great video, thanks Teddy I love this complication...... the fc is my favorite.....that Lange!!!!!!
Now this is one of my favorite complications.
Not only is it fun, but it can provide a fascinating dress watch.
High standard video as always . Teddy, your passion inspired me to acquire first entry level luxury watch . I am stuck between Maurice Lacroix Aikon and Raymond Weil RW 1212, both have green dials . Your professional opinion would be a massively appreciated !!!
Cheers .
I have the Zodiac World Timer. It's very easy to wear. The standard bracelet is fine though the clasp could be better which I believe you stated in your review of it. I put it on the new five link Bracelet they have which is much more comfortable. Great Watch. I'd love to pick up that Omega World timer. That's a beautiful watch.
The omega seamaster aqua terra worldtimer is my grail watch. I love globes and world maps so this piece inspires me. I just can’t justify 10k yet 😬
Stocks and bondage should pay enough, especially if you combine both in creative ways...
@@LaurentiusTriarius the trick isn’t necessarily coming up with the money, it’s convincing my wife! “You know that money we have to travel all year? Let’s just buy me yet another watch 😃”
I tried to love the Omega world, but couldn't get into it. Maybe I'm weird but it didn't do it for me.
great job, Teddy! I would definitely add the Christopher Ward Worldglow to this list!!
That Breguet is beyond classy same with the Lange.
Great video as always. I have a Seiko Astron GPS Solar and I'm surprised it doesn't seem to make this type of list on a number of the good watch channels on TH-cam. It's $3,500 AUS (~ $2,700 USD). It has a quartz movement (maybe that's why) & synchronises with satellites for further accuracy. It's also very easy to change between the time zones, and has some Grand Seiko elements (Zaratsu polishing, beautiful indices and the anti-reflective coating - both sides is so good many think that the watch has no crystal). I heard a rumour that the watch has been discontinued. Is this true? Keep up the great content, Teddy. Regards, Richard.
Was the Farer Worldtimer not around at the time of this upload? Because it really is astonishing value for money. True worldtimer with 100 meters of water resistance, 39mm case with only 11mm of thickness. So much better specs than the FC Worldtimer which is oversized for most wrists, all for $1700.
I’ve been hankering for a worldtimer for years. Aesthetically, my favorites are the new Montblanc, and older watches from JLC, IWC, Breitling, and Zenith. Frédérique Constant is also not bad.
I love my Montblanc Orbis Terrarum, beautiful
Great video as always. I would like to make a suggestion for a video.
Building a Orient watch collection
There would be a lot to explore.
Keep going with the good work 👌
As soon as I saw the title, I knew casio world time would be named first haha great video as always!
TEDDY! When will Seiko be back in stock on your website?!! Almost all of them are sold out and I can't wait longer. Love the stuff you do... keep it up
I believe fc is so underrated. They are stunning
So I purchased a Nomos Weltzeit watch, thinking that I would use it when I travel internationally, especially to Asia. Then, reality hit me. When I actually used this watch to travel, I realized that none of the mechanical watches with world time function account for Day Light Saving Time in the United States. So during the summer, I would have to set the destination time to a different city than the intended city. My wife made fun of me when I called her from my business trip, complaining about my watch being off by 1 hour…. 😊
Get the JLC Geophysic Universal Time and problem solved :)
Thank you so much. You show us beautiful watches . The world timer that you have selected opened a new world for many of us. The Frederic Constant is not expensive but it is a nice watch. If i had the money, the OMEGA and the BREGUET are my choices. A huge difference in cost between them but they both look trul smart.
Very/Very Well done
Best review ever for world timer watches
Thank you again for answering questions-some really good ones.
Thanks for the feature! Wonderful video as usual. 😊
Great video. That AquaTerra just hits all the high spots for me.
ever see the PORSCHE DESIGN world timer. very nice!
Hey Teddy, love your content and I’m sure I’m gonna get hate for this but I love quartz watches. Can you make a video regarding the best quartz watches across the board? Maybe different categories and from least to most expensive?
I was looking at a breitling unitimer and wanted a white dial your video has convinced me to go with the Nomos Zurich as I also love the clash between complication and bauhaus minimalism
I love worltimers but most of them don't recognize the timezone I'm living in, I also have that problem with most GMTs because they don't support half hour increments that's needed for some timezones. Casio Oceanus has some worldtimer models for a price around $500 and they're actually really good. Also if you want affordable worldtimers, you can check Citizen Promaster line, they have some offerings for under $300. Thank you Teddy for another great episode ✌🏼
Hey Teddy, have you heard of Bering? I came across it more than a decade ago when I lost my watch while traveling around Europe and needed something to help with keeping time for bus and train schedules. Mine works great until now and has never needed a battery change. Came across a few in Amazon and wondering if I should get a second one, and if my experience with it is more an exception rather than the rule. Thanks for the great content as always!
Excellent as always, i think it was good to mention Tissot Heritage Navigator, not expensive and really good
Would love some opinions on Blancpain, specifically the Villeret collection. Seems to be very rarely discussed on watch YT.
Longines master collection World Time. For the price and the function to see all the time zone not only 1 GMT. It's the best for me
That Breguet is absolutely beautiful
Sure is.. he never posted the specs and price for it.. or I missed it
@@emmanouel8 you didn't miss it he did, that's Ohio for you sir.
Great video. Love the presentation and level of information.
The Citizen Calendrier is a cool affordable option that you can find below $500 most the times.
The Junghans triggers my OCD because of all that "wasted" space in the periphery. However, for some reason, the blue dial option seems more pleasing.
Nice list, esp like the Breguet, but the Montblanc Orbis with the rotating map really deserves to be on this list
Will the Junghan track world time automatically ? Let me rephrase ... which of these watches track World Time automatically once home time is set ?
Awesome Pieces! All of them! Thank you!
Mont Blanc star legacy orbis terrarrum
Finally,a video in which I actually own one of the timepieces. I think we all know which one 😉
Shame you missed the JLC as its beautiful and the complication with the separate dial for the 2nd time zone is amazingly cool
Hmm, Casio $25, Junghans Meister $2150, Rado Over-Pole $2400, Zodiac Super Sea Wolf $1795, Frederique Constant $4,395, Nomos Glashutte $6100, Omega Aquaterra $9100, IWC Pilot's Watch 12,300, A. Lange & Sohne Lange $57,800, Breguet (No price given), Patek Phillipe $70,000.
Or you can get the Orient World Revival for $470 MSRP with gray market price of $214.
I remember when I got my first Casio PDA organizer thing back in 1995. It had world time and I was a baller.
You’ve gotta end it with a Patek. Stunning watch.
You missed my favorite- the JLC Geographique
I'd love to see an IWC pilot worldtimer without the chronograph complication. Like a BP43. That would reduce the thickness substantially, and make it far more wearable.
Awesome Vlog David!
Great video but I think you should have included the Casio S100 which for around $500 in titanium is an awesome watch.
You should check the Andreas Strehler Sauterelle a Heure Mondiale, amazing worldtime from an independent 😁
I love the omega world timer, ill get one in a few years hopefully
2 more good options are the Jaeger Lecoultre Master Control Geographic and the Montblanc heritage Spirit Orbis Terrarum
When traveling knowing what day it is vital. You know, is it Monday or Sunday. And for that you need a digital. This is supposed to be about “the best” for traveling. For years I used a Casio that with a couple of push buttons told me the time, the day of the week, and the local date. And for anyone traveling across the dateline anything less was inadequate.
You MUST add PF Tonda GMT to this list! It’s the most elegant GMT solution out there in the market.
Breguet is my absolute favorite!
You forgot the great Zenith doublematic and the LUC chopard time traveller one. Both with Louis cottier me anis like PP
I'm surprised no mention of the JLC Master Geographic. I think that watch is gorgeous.
That FC world timer is a really cool looking piece. 🥃
I'm surprised that you didn't mention the Moritz Grossman Universalzeit. It's such a beautiful and unique watch.
Great review, however you skipped an affordable mechanical option in the Orient World Map.
Mont Blanc Orbis is pretty amazing as well!
Was lucky enough to find a 1968 Seiko World Time, one of my favourite watches.
I have the casio world time love it
Still got my SEIKO 5T52 World Timer from the 1990s. Haven't seen that sort of analog world time display since.
No love for the Orient Star World Time JC00002D? Beautiful watch for a great price
You skipped the Citizen world time after Casio. Amazing watch.
The Alpina Startimer Pilot Heritage GMT is a great watch for around $1,000.
The Bréguet!!! Wow 😮
Hi Teddy, have you looked at Panzera? It’s an Australian brand but I believe they use Swiss parts or make some parts in Switzerland. Could you please review them please. They have a flieger, dive watch and chronograph.
Citizen bx1010. Just wish they made a smaller version.
I have a Casio Oceanus with a World-Time complication and it's a beautiful, reliable Casio that I bought for an admittedly expensive (for Casio) 400 dollars new. I'm surprised you didn't mention that one, it's a pretty popular watch for what it is.
Another Oceanus owner here: I second that!
Omega is a work of art
The Omega is a masterpiece
So wait how does that Junghans work? No rotating bezel? No GMT hand?
Are all the bezels on the others bi-directional? Friction or ratcheting?
Question what watch is Teddy wearing in the vid.. ?
I would include the JLC Master Geographic.
I am considering the Mont Blanc Geosphere.
FC (and B&Mercier) need more love. Nomos needs more blue dials. And now I need a PB&J. - Aaron
You missed the Christopher ward World timer. Very affordable, a bit on the larger side but an amazing lume !
The FC is stunning.
If they would just make the Frederique Constant Worldtimer smaller, it would be perfect and I'd buy it.
Thought the Oris Pro Pilot Worldtimer would be included.
Hi Teddy can you do a video on dual time watches? Thanks!!
I'm sorry, but you need to do a whole episode on that Breguet
Excited for this one Teddy
I wrote to Jaeger-LeCoultre proposing any watches from my collection in exchange for a Master Grande Tradition calibre 948 world timer. Idk they didn't wrote back yet...
Hey Teddy, love the video. I think the Omega looks great. That snap feature in the Bréguet is also amazing. Question.. I have a Cartier Tank, wood case. I am wondering how much you would buy this for? I’m thinking of selling it and not sure what it’s worth. Thanks.
Breguet the best lange and omega are tied second. Junghans and Rado are after that
I've recently become interested in damascene, have not seen a review of damascene watches and it appears to be an afer market feature rather than an manufactured one; I'm curious to know more about whether there are brands out there making damascene as standard and what the features of those designs and methods are - any chance you'd look at that?
