Another new hair cut......which council did it this time? Definitely better👍
Went in 69, not been back since, and Nasa admit it can't be repeated today because "we lost the technology"
Mankind greatest achievement and Nasa, by there own admission lose......no wait for it.........9000 box's.........all the telemetry, all the drawings, every-f-ing-thing.
Come on Andrew.......only a child or incompetent would believe that.
Didn't realise the Speedmaster was worn on the moon, you'd have thought Omega would use that more in marketing.
Rolex quick to claim a first, but slow to admit being second.. Again.
You know what’s coming don’t you?
The tired remarks about how it retains its worth. This will be the number one defense for it.
Big miss on the Cartier watch built for Aviator Alberto Santos Dumont….one of the first “men’s” wristwatches in 1904
Now I despise Rolex even more. Thank you, Andrew. Love your channel.
Life is too short to waste on despising a company that makes an product nobody needs.
@@cecaju9516 Let people enjoy things. I enjoy being a hater.
@@betog.6229 isn’t that an oxymoron?
@@cecaju9516 Sure. Maybe. I don't know.
So Rolex claims credit for someone else’s innovations. Which makes sense Rolex hasn’t innovated worth a damn in decades how come it was a fountain of innovators before? A fountain of bs perhaps.
So,
Rolex invented/pioneered absolutely nothing, stolen other's ideas, and financially/intellectually destroyed other companies, yet is the most coveted/sought after brand in the world.
Humanity sucks.
I think that is the understated message of this video. Rolex is a brand nothing more. Omega make better timekeepers, Seiko make better watches and Lorus sells them.
@@donaldasayers I agree. Rolex is technically an homage brand. 😂
Like San Martin. 😂
Now you know the power of marketing
At this list I'd add the Casio G-Shock too :)
Rolex, telling BSs to people and stealing from others since the 50s... Good job :(
BTW, nice hair cut mate :)
Biggest regret ever for me was not buying the Speedmaster back in the early 90s when it was really affordable. Had one in my hands but decided against buying it.
This is what also happened to me. Wife wanted to get me one as an anniversary gift in 96, but I thought 2k was too much money at the time and said no. We were recently married and I thought we had not developed our careers enough to have the disposable income for such a purchase. Fast forward to last month; I mentioned to her about the Omega Speedmaster we almost bought, complaining about the rise in price since then. She flat out told me, "Well, you was being an idiot, thinking you were being smart, and I wasnt going to argue and make you feel like you didn't have any say in how we spend our money at the time. You didn't know I had already budgeted for it and we could have afforded it. So, its your fault." 😡

You forgot the G-Shock. Did Audemars Piguet ever ride a hockey puck and survive?
I bet if Omega didn't make such a big deal about the Speedmaster being the first moon watch. Rolex would try and claim that as well.
5 years from now if you have a display back on your watch you will get compliments: "nice, like the Rolex"
@@alexsavutube thats totaly gonna happen 🤣🤣🤣
@@alexsavutube😂
You damn right they would. Just give them time, they will soon be saying they innovated the display back.
Cosmograph daytona. Cosmograph didn't work so they had to add daytona.
Also worth noting that Longines and Glycine made GMTs before Rolex was the first
Great lesson In horological history Andrew👍So Rolex tried to get credit for being first on top of Mount Everest and first dive watch😁Andrew you forgot the accomplishment of the different inventions by Abraham Breguet probably the Grandfather of horology?
Andrew, I commend you for the amount of research and the quality you put in to making this video! My only surprise is there are only 67,000 subscribers to your channel. Keep up the great work!
🤢
Take your tongue outta his posterior and buy some of that cool merch 😉
From this list I, myself, personally, would choose the Smith's simply for the little known history and the story behind it. However, the "best" I suppose has really got to be the Speedmaster. Why? Because it has an iconic status no other watch will be able to match. Except, possibly, the first watch to be worn on Mars. Even then I hope it is a Speedmaster. I would go further. I would like it to become a spacefaring tradition that whenever mankind first sets foot on another celestial body they are wearing a Speedmaster. Indeed maybe gift one to the local inhabitants.
Fascinating.. more historical watch vids please!!
Rolex may be the greatest company in the world at marketing, .... shamelessly so.
We better have the Casio F-91W in this list 😊
God tier.
Oh Andrew really! You should have given a spoiler alert for the Everest story 🙂. It's a good one.
Andrew you should have given an alert about how you were gonna call rolex on their lying.
So are you telling me that my Milgauss didn’t go to Venus? Sorry Andrew, you only have a certain amount of credibility.
They're all not what you expect except for one, and that's why it's the coolest watch ever.
Rolex are like Apple: Stealing good ideas and mastering ergonomy and especially marketing.
Publishing a Greatest Watch list that's a stealth Rolex propaganda buster; well done 😏
That is why I hate Rolex. I will never buy one.
So, Sturmanskie is the first watch in space. You can't take that away from yes Russians. I'm buying one of those.
Great quality content! A step above - you deserve more subscribers!
Rolex being disingenuous like a Tory. FML
This is the best watch channel on the internet. Thank you Andrew
No digital display milestone?
Not a single digital watch?
That cheap Casio F-91W digital quartz has to be on the list of all time greatest. It's been worn on more wrists than any other watch ever, a record that will probably stand for all time given the reduced need to wear watches, what with mobile phones and clocks on everything.
A few I knew, more that I didn’t. Thank you for this excellent content!
Just super reporting! I'm interested, if you had 11 to choose where would the Cartier Santos sit? First wrist watch? First purpose built aeronautical watch?
Why are you asking a watch dealer for his opinions? Lol geez man
My first luxury watch
So, what is the greatest watch ever made ?🤔
Exactly, clickbait. It was never answered.
Not forgetting Seiko had a watch in Space the highly collectible Pogue with bright yellow dial.
Thanks Andrew. I would have add the Zénith El Primero 36000 vph
Tudor is the watch Rolex actually makes. Rolex is the watch Rolex lies about making.
Was expecting to see a blue waffle dial in here (still not forgiven you for making me aware that was a thing…) .
I'd put a digital Casio there. Either the Casiotron, or the first G-shock.
You with all that merch on, oh that was a good one👍🏻. Thanks for some interesting facts 👌🏻. Would love more of that.
Merch, Andrew ? Really ?
When I was 25, Jeremy Clarkson arrived on the scene, now, 64, Andrew Morgan turns up. They have 'so' much in common and both are legends. (or will be A). I love the slant!.....
No mention of Bulova? Thought the early Accutrons would be worth a mention, how about Dave Scott's Bulova on Apollo 15?
The greatest watch EVER! .. is the one you’re currently wearing!
Congrats to you 😏
You're like a museum but a lot more fun. The Ollech and Wajs Caribbean 1000 was the first watch rated to 1000 m of water resistance.
There can't be a top ten of greatest watches without a Casio FW-91. Still I liked this vid, keep up the great work.
The greastest watch ever made? Though not popular, if there can be only one, there's an argument for the Citizen 0100.
great vides as always dont forget the hamilton electric watch made is usa in 1957 ventura 500 movement elvis presley wore one
I ABSOLUTELY love how you REALLY pay attention to the details when it comes to the history behind those famous brands and/or watches.
It’s his job dude.
Stirring up hate for the haters is big business 😂
the audio on AMW channel sounds a bit weird, anyone think the same? the watchfinder andrew sounds fine but AMW sounds really off to me
The greatest writ watch ever made is the Grand Seiko 211. (Snowflake).
The lunar module has a Bulova Accutron clock. Best accuracy by that time…..
33 times thicker🤔
Im blown away - what an outstanding video! 👍👍👍
Ugh, Andrew, you didn't tell us which watch is the greatest ever made! Chh.
Thanks for a watch history lesson❤
so keen to get a Smiths Everest
Love mine. It's the best way to troll Rolex back for basically stealing everything.
Do Zenith not deserve a mention ?
Outstanding work as usual, Andrew
There was as much chance of finding a bowl of pie n mash in India, as a rocket landing on the moon😂
Love the content, but love your voice even more.
Bulova accutron cal 214 certainly be in my top 10
Auguste Piccard at 6:12 was the model for Hergé's Professor Calculus in the Tintin cartoons. Hergé used to sit outside a cafe in Brussels sketching passers by. Piccard had a teaching job nearby and was fairly well known anyway so Hergé used him as an unwitting model. If you do a Google image search for him you will find pictures of him wearing an improvised basketweave crash helmet, that makes him look just as unhinged as his cartoon counterpart.
🤯🤯🤯
You forgot breitling was the first watch in space
I can’t buy a watch with the man on the moon bs, it never happened.
What is this rolex you often refer to? Is it a watch maker?
Now I see why AP are in the holy trinity of makers!
I know that you did it on purpose.The watch that have sold more than Rolex in 100 years.Casio F-91W.😎😎
Bourbon was the first biscuit on the moon.
Excellent! Love the history.
An excellent & eye opening video😎
Casio Databank CA-53W
You said the Speedmaster was adopted by NASA in 1965, however it first went into space in 1962.
Correct, in 1962 american astronauts wore their privately owned speedmasters to space (Wally Schirra). Later in 1965 Edward White wore his official NASA equipment Speedmaster, during the first american spacewalk.
@@jha77jha77 cool, thanks for the history lesson, I'm surprised NASA allowed someone to bring their personal watches into space! Although maybe they tested them out first
So almost all of Rolex history is fake.
Hi Andrew, I’ve been following you for a while and I do love your enthusiasm for the Speedmaster, but I don’t understand why you haven’t spoken about the Speedmaster II 😊
Third!
Timex Indiglo🏆
How is landing someone on the moon our greatest triumph? There is also the fork, the wheel, writing and finally the fleshlight. Towering achievements indeed.
Apollo missions knew where they were headed and had large and well funded State Agencies supporting them. Easy job.
The really tough guys were the explorers from the 15th Century. They had no clue where they were, where they were headed and even if they could sail back home one day. And doing all that aboard slow vessels, unable to sail at better angles than 90 degrees to the wind, and no Breguet, Omega or Rolex watch to help.
You forgot toilet paper, remember?
Where can I buy a doggy Pobeda? I want the first of the first watches worn in space. Until someone finds out that the beep sound transmitted from Sputnik one was the alarm of a prototype Casio sounding off!!
"Electronic Watch is Made by Swiss," article written by a Hamilton! 😂
Would I wear an AMW branded watch...hell yeah...thats a nice logo.👍
Been waiting for such a firsts video for sometime. Thanks AMW.
Dude, you rock!
Always informative and fun to watch…too bad you can’t mention your own channel during the videos of your day job…
Great historical video. Thanks, saved here for future use.
You have made a wonderful informative video. I also think it will stir up thw watch community.
Great list. Would add the Cartier Santos.
I luv him 😂
Pardon me but Casio indeed the best wristwatch ever invented
Very interesting to "watch" while sipping my morning coffee.
I’d like to see you do a series breaking down watch makers by country.
Wow. Had no idea the first watch with a date complication wasn’t a Rolex date just.
Pretend they were first - it’ll help your Rolex social credit score at the AD. If you comply, they might let you buy an Oyster Perpetual (the first automatic wrist watch….wink wink…) one day. Obey you master. The crown. The ruler. The all powerful. The first at everything. The company that can do no wrong. Rolex.
I thought the Datejust had the first jumping date? But maybe that, too, was first done by someone else.
@@thegornto my knowledge they did indeed have the first “jumping date window” and never claimed to have the first date. Dates used to be displayed by a hand. Also, they never claimed to have the first automatic watch, just the first bidirectional winding rotor. Misinformed Rolex haters are putting words in Rolexes’ mouth - though subtle, they are distinctions nonetheless
I love people getting a hard on about which brand did or didn’t do something first, but owning neither 😂
Just buy both and you have all bases covered 😂😂
Having sold my (Solix-) Harwood a couple of years ago is one of my few regrets.
Thanks for not repeating the so much repeated stories.
Wow! That was a fantastic video, I really learned a lot.
Great video Andrew. Many thanks.
“Jewelers and Optometrists“ 😂
This is the most interesting watch video ever. ❤
Great video 👍 credit where credit is due!
Glad I sold me last rolex last week.
But only one Rolex :-(
