I’m glad I was able to gift myself a Rolex last year for retirement. But that feeling paled in comparison to when we got the AD call a few months later for my wife’s two-tone gold DateJust with Diamond bezel and Diamond/mother of pearl dial. It was exactly the configuration she wanted, and they had one come in. It was a way to honor her for 35 years as a military spouse with all those hardships, a corporate wife, getting dragged all over the world, the kids, the grandkids, et., etc. her Rolex means way more to me than mine does. Great episode fellas.
Such a wonderful conversation. It's always refreshing talking about the emotional aspect of the watches and not just the current news and the prices going up and down. P.S. I hope Michael enjoyed the conversation too. He yawned quite a bit 😂
My Dad has a Daytona. Ive never seen him wear it. He no longer wears a watch but when he did, most of my childhood, it was a Seiko Kinetic Titanium two tone gold and silver watch. I remember Seiko stamped on the clasp. When i went to buy a watch i bought one with Seiko stamped across the clasp, silver, smaller in size for me, but dressier, not a diver. So similar to his but not the same. I got it because seeing the stamp on the inside of my wrist reminds me of him. His watch is the Seiko he wore, not the Daytona in the drawer. One day I hope to have his watch. It's what he wore teaching me a concept in school, or tossing the ball around, or working on a project.
Really great episode gents. It’s very relatable questioning the decision to have so much money tied up in these things on our wrist. Michael - great job on processing the noise out on this episode. Huge improvement.
"Hand it down while you're still alive" wise words here. I inherited a steel datejust after my father suddenly died, every time I see the watch, it reminds me of that day.
Love the thoughtful discussion about how our perceptions of our own collections change when we reflect on the actual meaning or sentiment to them. Every watch has a story.
New acquisitions this year: Polar Explorer II for my 40th and the Mission to Mars Moonswatch cause it's fun. Most worn: Exp II, then my Omega Aqua Tera swapped to an orange alligator strap. Weird thing: I have a harder time committing to a "cheap" watch than I do an expensive one. With expensive watches, I KNOW what I want and work toward it. Cheaper watches, I look at them as "well, that'll slow me down from getting the next expensive watch," so I can't commit to them, lol.
the film major in me is in pain with the mix of daylight and tungsten light, the window reflection on Christian's glasses, and the mic-stands in the middle of frame. Older setup was more kino
Watches added this year: CW Twelve glacier blue; Arken Alterum (delivery Jan24), CW Bel Canto Nero (delivery Feb24); Omega Speedy Hesalite sail strap); Rolex Explorer II black dial; Studio Underdog Goofy Panda; Wise Hitman Hit66 Lyme Special Edition, Wise Adamascus Meteorite 39. I don’t always buy so many but this is just what became available during the year. I usually go months without adding anything new, sometimes longer. The watch I wear the most is my Omega Seamaster that I bought with my wife (before we were married); I bought it new from an AD almost 17 years ago. Second most often watch is what I wear for work (with a suit) Breguet Classique Retrograde Seconds and UN Classico. The Breguet was what I consider to be my first “real” timepiece and as a result is one of my favorites.
Was on the list last year at my local AD for a day date. Shocked when they called and said come pick it. Wear it often - like the look but as important the wear experience is a plus for me.
The point toward the end about feeling bad and impulse buying is very real. I bought a microbrand recently and not only did I feel bad about impulse buying, but they sliced 35% off the watch two months later. If I would have had patience I could have gotten it for much less
Watches added this year: IWC Big Pilot Mojave Desert, Rolex Day-Date ref. 18238. I am loving and enjoying both to go with my two-tone Omega Seamaster Diver 300m Black Ceramic and Sedna Gold on rubber strap. The Day-Date was the same watch my dad wore growing up, but sold away years ago. The IWC Mojave Desert was a 3month wait on two different lists (both projected a 6-8mo wait). The IWC has been spending the most time on the wrist and fits really well with my wardrobe/style.
This year I gifted myself a Rolex Date-Just 36 from 1977 and a Christopher Ward Trident C60 Pro. I also gifted my wife an Omega Aqua Terra for her retirement. A good year.
Whenever these guys talk about what watches their kids will wear. I think about that scene from The Office where Michael Scott is about to buy a condo, and he points at a skinny sapling tree and tells Dwight that one day, his kids will climb that tree. Then he realizes that he's in front of the wrong condo and then points at the tree across the street and that, no, that one. The idea that years later he'll still be living in a cheap condo, only with a family? Yeah, that's what I think of when these 20 somethings talk about their kids owning watches years from now. It's sweet, though, that they do.
I became successful at age 38. I bought a vintage yellow gold Rolex day-date 36mm at 40, and a Patek Philippe Calatrava 5196J at 41. I think that’s enough until I earn $60M+. I might get stupid at that point.
When I started my career, my dad passed on his inexpensive Seiko travel alarm clock to me. It’s a gold painted plastic clock that folds back on itself to make a bedside clock. He used it his entire sales career…almost. Anyway, I don’t use it but I carry it in my bag wherever I travel. Even a cheap piece of plastic can hold sentimental value.
Great video! I really want a Grand Seiko but don’t want the pinnacle of craftsmanship when I haven’t met that standard yet. I like the idea of the Hamilton Pilot where the mechanical movement reminds you to put in the work to continue to run.
I just discovered your channel and I LOVE it even though I'm old enough to be your father and I'm not a watch collector unless you call owning 3 G/shocks and a Timex (for weddings and funeral's} a collector . But I have always worn a watch since first grade i feel naked without it. I do plan on buying myself a nice Seiko or I may spring for a Tag. It does my heart good to see young guys like you " Christian, Michael and Sam " starting a business and having a passion for all accepts of horology. Thank you for putting out great content with your channel, I have learned a lot since I found Theo & Harris btw " which ones pink" I mean Theo. LOL PS, great website love all the straps RGW in NC
Hey guys - as a new to the watch world guy I’ve bought a Seiko 5 sport and Tissot PRX this year. As Christian knows I bought my first vintage watch from T&H last fall, a Felca 55 and I’ve been flirting with getting my first Longines Spirit Zulu because I work in Aerospace and I just turned 55 😜
This year I most wore a Cartier santos blue pvd with the silver dial. Wore it mostly on the rubber strap and a custom blue ostrich strap. I did buy a 1957 Tudor oyster big rose quadrant dial. Currently that’s on 1980s jubilee. Love it 10/10 but will eventually get a strap for that as well.
You are 100% correct on how we are ( Greeks & Italians ) being a first generation Greek American and frowning up seeing how Greeks, especially that just came from Greece and fitting in to how things work. I remember being a little kid and all the old men had a Gold Rolex , then I remember in my teens that every Greek that was a Doctor, Dentist or Lawyer all had the Rolex Submariner Bluesy. My Pappou at a Rolex Day Date and I remember him taking care of it and always keeping it spotless . I got into watches because of my Pappou and my Father . So I can relate to how you grew up in the Italian Greek community in New York . Great talk today guys and and so true on when and why to get that special watch .
@@TheoandHarris I even have my Greko Speaking relatives still in Calabria . For me it really is Una faccia una Razza . Being both Greek and Calabrian Greek . No Bette place than Astoria Queens and Brooklyn . Caio, fratello mio, continua così con i grandi spettacoli.
when I first got into watches I aspired to the Rolex fleet. Submariners, Daytonas. I eventually got round to owning a lovely blue dial date-just that I kept for a couple of years. Your taste develops, and I just moved on. I now have two Cartiers, a beautiful green dial Grand Seiko elegance and just find them so aesthetically and emotionally appealing in a way that Rolex didn't for me any more. Its up to everyones tastes and desires, but there's so much more than Rolex that can satisfy your love for watches, its good to explore
Liked this approach Christian and Michael, Rolex explorer is a great choice, I’ve got a 36mm on order! my 2023 acquisitions were enjoyable and all used alot - Nomos club campus 36 blue purple for my trip to Europe, Tudor p39 for new daily and Cartier tank solo for the Mrs.
I finally received my 124270 and I really wanted to love this watch. I fell in love with it at the AD, it was the perfect watch. After 7 month I sold it. It just never felt right. I’ve owned 36mm watches in the past, but I just couldn’t get used to my Explorer. It just felt too diminutive and my wrist are only 6.5 . I hope your experience is different. By the way the NOMOS club campus 36 wears much bigger than the Explorer 124270. I keep mentioning the current gen because older 36mm Explorer wear bigger.
Last year, I wore my Polar Explorer II more than I wore my 2nd and 3rd most worn watches combined. With a 12-watch collection, I wore the Polar 25% of the year.
You guys really did start the Cartier discussion back in the day...Mike Nouveau is someone that's been talking about and collecting some nice Cartier pieces.
Once I was in my late 20s just started to work in 99, I said to my uncle that I will buy a Rolex, he said if you buy it everybody will think as a fake, if I buy a fake everybody will think as a real deal, so watch should go hand to hand with the man 😉
I agree with you. I have a Frédérique Constant, a Brellum, a Breitling, and a higher-end Seiko with an SD. I personally don't feel that at my age and with my accomplishments, that I deserve my watch collection, even though I technically assembled the funds to cover it. With regards to Rolex, I personally don't feel as though I'll ever be an accomplished enough person to be deserving of one, and my mom should receive one before I ever do.
I love these types of conversations! I also enjoy when Michael helps to keep Christian's ego in check a little bit:) C: "I have very scrawny arms...it is why I always wear long sleeves." M: "Oh...they know...they know" HAHA
I normally just grab the next watch in my watch box on Mondays in a straight rotation. I don't travel with more than one watch, so a month on vacation should easily make my seamaster bullhead silver dial my most worn watch in 2023.
I'm 22 years old and own a 37mm Everose Yacht Master, it's the only precious metal sports watch that fits on my wrist and it was love at first sight. I've been saving up since 16 years old and got it + the new 36mm Explorer as my 2 watch collection for life. I finally got them when I graduated with my Master's degree. Now that I have them, I've felt out of place with the Yacht Master on my wrist. It's a gold watch, and people have been judging me before they even get to know how I got it /:
Ehh, don't overthink it. Just buy something nice that you like and enjoy it. Obsessing about the special occasion aspect of it is tedious at a certain point.
Christian, you stole my idea of buying watches for my kids! Jk! I’m sure I got that from you in a previous video. And I have 5 kids, so thanks for that bill! Lol Love the new format but I loved the old format also. You all do great work! Cheers!
Today you can buy a vintage Omega 18k gold men's watch from $1200 to two thousand dollars. Most vintage Omega watches are very robust. I have a 1934 steel Omega that runs beautifully. Many are manual wind. I am wearing now a 1963 Manual Wind 18k gold Omega Seamaster. It is in beautiful condition. You don't have to settle for a low-level watch. I like vintage Omega watches. To pay $5000 and up for a classic watch is not necessary. Vintage Omega watches are available. My 1949 Omega Tresor in 18k rose gold black face manual wind is gorgeous. It is 36mm I paid $1500 for it five years ago. It has an 18k buckle. I would put a value of $3k to $6k on it. It has a sub-second-hand dial . The new of this watch 38mm version of this watch is $17,000. My watch could be worn anywhere and it would quietly say class. To put all your money on a Rolex is foolish. There is a major price correction on Rolex watches now. If there is a stampede of people selling their Rolex the price could collapse. Rolex tried to control the price by creating a shortage. That has distorted the Vlue of the watch. Prices are down 20%. How do you think the people who bought te Rolex at a high price are going to feel.? People could dump their Rolex watchs.
I'll never understand showering with a watch on. Its actually terrible for the seals and it's an easy place to damage it. It only takes a couple of seconds to take it off. It seems like it comes down to laziness
Guys, LOVE T&H...but. This new seating arrangement is interfering with the banter and chemistry, Christian even looks on the defensive. Time to rub shoulders again guys 👍🏼
Lads! Golden Showers! What the f....... We develop into adults by finding EVERYTHING our parents did as crass and embarrassing. Is it the Italian side of Christian, that means that he's still too strongly influenced by his mother, giving her a watch he couldn't move on, and then talking about his thoughts about Golden showers. Disturbing!
I wrestle with this more than I probably should. I always feel like I dont deserve my Datejust, yet im out busting my butt and doing well. Really interesting conversation guys
Come on guys. Seriously? So you are non fake-watch guys, but you don’t mind about other fake products that violate intellectual propriety? Let’s imagine a perfume review TH-cam account, only reviewing genuine perfumes. Would it be fair to have them adverting a fake watch manufacturer or seller? 😕
I take off my shoes, then my watch when i walk into my home, and i put on my watch, then my shoes when i am about to walk out. Watches are a none domestic thing. I never understood wearing a watch in bed, or the shower. It's like smoking in bed. Grose, don't do it.
Do you wear your watch to the beach when on vacation? I do and immediately shower with it to wash away the salt. It’s the only time I wear a watch in the shower.
Michael, you don’t have to repeat what your AD says to you

I'll never understand showering with a watch on. Its actually terrible for the seals and it's an easy place to damage it. It only takes a couple of seconds to take it off. It seems like it comes down to laziness
A Marloe Atlantic and a Marloe R33. An Apple 7 and a Garmin fenix 5.
Who is this Cardi Yay person they keep talking about??
She was a co-host

Christian, please don't wear that shirt again while filming. You look like Pennywise!!!
Aqua terra 41m in black -> can truly do anything
bring back the old studio. It's not the same
Guys, LOVE T&H...but.
This new seating arrangement is interfering with the banter and chemistry, Christian even looks on the defensive.
Time to rub shoulders again guys 👍🏼
My main take-away from this video was the shot of Michael's hand and his g-shock. His hands don't look like they belong to him 😅
That shirt is crazy
If you wana be taken seriously your outfits shouldn't be the focus is that a valid point?
Lads! Golden Showers! What the f....... We develop into adults by finding EVERYTHING our parents did as crass and embarrassing. Is it the Italian side of Christian, that means that he's still too strongly influenced by his mother, giving her a watch he couldn't move on, and then talking about his thoughts about Golden showers. Disturbing!
Christian dressing like Steve Urkel today
Love my zenith! El premero all the way!
For 2023, gifted the Rolex GMT Batman.
Pepsi again .. Batman haters
A watch is water resistant, but not steam resistant. I would never wear a watch in a shower.
Exactly. Not a good idea
Nice to see Dick Dastardly is doing well for himself these days.
I wrestle with this more than I probably should. I always feel like I dont deserve my Datejust, yet im out busting my butt and doing well. Really interesting conversation guys
Why does he always wear super gay outfit?
No gay guy would wear a shirt that ugly
Thoughts about Rolex buying Omega’s flagshipstore?
Why?
cmon... Rolex doesnt deserve you (is a right attitude)
Come on guys. Seriously? So you are non fake-watch guys, but you don’t mind about other fake products that violate intellectual propriety?
Let’s imagine a perfume review TH-cam account, only reviewing genuine perfumes. Would it be fair to have them adverting a fake watch manufacturer or seller? 😕
I take off my shoes, then my watch when i walk into my home, and i put on my watch, then my shoes when i am about to walk out. Watches are a none domestic thing. I never understood wearing a watch in bed, or the shower. It's like smoking in bed. Grose, don't do it.
Showering with a watch on is ridiculous and hot water is actually terrible for the seals
Do you wear your watch to the beach when on vacation? I do and immediately shower with it to wash away the salt. It’s the only time I wear a watch in the shower.
No I don't like a tan line, so I always put my watch in my bag or pocket.
Timex Q Chronograph reverse panda $200
could you please give the pale guy a cheeseburger and take him to a beach or something.
thanks.
Christian looking like Dick Dastardly
You have to respect that Christian doesn't follow this stupid quiet luxury trend. He's gonna wear that red-violet shirt, and wear it with confidence!
Christian rocking pajamas?
The Rolex GMT was kinda played out even before PANAM went belly up.
