    I am so glad to have seen this channel. As a former Navy diver and professional pilot, I really appreciated this program. I have just been getting into watches, but I have fond memories of my Quartz Seiko dive watch that I used operationally and it never let me down, (they don't make them anymore), and my Blue Angels tribute watch that I wore during my Aviation career with world time zones and Nav computer bezel. I was always a practical watch person, but now I appreciate the finer points of watches.

    I just ran across your channel yesterday, and have since been watching many episodes. This is sme of the most unique content I have run across, really interesting people and fantastic watches! This episode now has me looking at Rolex military pocket watches to add to my dad and grandfathers pocket watches. Mr. Liddle has superb taste in his collecting!

    There is nothing in that collection I’d like to have more than the aquanaut. The aquanaut is by far my favourite sport watch ever.

    I have a Bremont S501 with my service number as the serial number which was made for me due to an unforeseen event.

    A great interview, I was in the Meat and Veg from 1989 to 1992, and went back for some more from 2000 to 2003. For all my efforts, I rose to the dizzying heights of full screw, for time served. My watch collection consists of, (wait for it. . ) a Casio F91W, and a battered old Rolly Polly Egg-Splorer. I was on the waiting list for that for about 10 minutes down Bond Street, back in the day before all this watch nonsense started. Any way, like Squadron Captain Leader Group Admiral Commander Rich (by name and rich by nature), I could tell you a few tales too, If you want to come down to my aircraft hangar, pull up a sandbag, I'll get my stunningly shite watch collection out too (please))

    Although rare because there is just the one, it’s just a contrived confection by Rolex. The Rolex Milsubs and Comex are intrinsically the rarest.

    Wonderful collection. The best in the world probably? How fortunate his sun is. Can you imagine getting all this one day. Just getting it all. I am not a jealous person at all but the thought alone makes me sick. So much poverty in the world and then seeing this 😢
