*WRONG!* 8am *EDT* NOT EST. Remember how you set your clocks an hour ahead last March? To change to *DAYLIGHT* Saving Time for the Summer. Just like you have done every year for your entire life.
I'm left handed, but I've always found it more natural and convenient to wear it on my left hand. And with it being on my left hand I find myself looking at the time more often than when i try and use it on my right hand.
I'm left handed, but I wear my watch on the left hand. It's great to learn where the terms White & Blue collar come from. But I was distracted by your leather jacket. It's so good looking.
Watches on the right hand side. If you do a lot of business with another country by phone/email etc, where you need to have a regular communication, wear a second watch on the right wrist set to the other time zone. it'll stop you having to constantly work out the time in the other zone, similar to offices that have 2 clocks on a wall.
Damn, Antonio shows why he's the best men's lifestyle channel by dropping way too much history on us and slipping in a completely unobtrusive promotion!! I learned a lot and appreciate the research you've done.
you read my mind: there is always LOGIC behind " fashion", and if there is not, it is objectively a mistake, it is not that subjective or a simple matter of taste as many believe.
My grandfather was a bank loan officer in Pittsburgh, PA in the early 1900s. Keeping shirts white in a town saturated with coal smoke was a challenge. Growing up, my grandparents house had an old stove in the basement, which I never questioned (I guess I sort of assumed they were saving it because they'd gotten a new stove but the old one still worked). Many years later, my mom explained that the stove was in the basement because grandma literally boiled grandpa's white shirts to get them white. Also, grandpa had to change his shirt at lunch, due to the accumulated coal dust on his collar and cuffs. If you go back a bit further, a lot of people actually had separate collars and cuffs made out of cellulose, so they could be wiped clean. I suspect that was more for the working class people who couldn't afford clothing (clothing was a LOT more expensive throughout most of history).
Outstanding! About watches on the Right wrist: It is also easier to strap on with your dominant hand. Nixon brand watches put the stem at 9 o'clock. I don't know if Chronometers were certified for wear on Right hand, although I understand tests included accuracy with 3 o'clock down I don't know if 9 o'clock down was tested to the same extent.
Hey Antonio, how about a video on the history of the dress shirt? I found that it used to concist of all sorts of loose parts, might be fun to talk about?
Good morning Antonio. Question:. Are pleated shorts still in style? Of the dozen or so pair of shorts I have several are pleated. Would I be 'aged' to wear them? Love your channel. Semper Fi
Style tip #1 - I like it! I’ve been trying after 36 years to wear my watch on the left hand and i almost forget I’m wearing it because I look at my right wrist and there’s no watch. It does have an amount of practicality...we’ll see if it stays.
About the TAG Heuer Monaco, there is a much more genius reason why they designed it with the crown on the left side. The movement for this watch, was the first ever automatic chronograph, so they designed the crown on the left side to remind people that there is no winding of this watch, because it’s automatically winding. (Of course there is some debate about which brand who truly launched the first automatic chronograph. Zenith, Heuer etc.)
I'm righthanded and have been wearing my watch on my righthand all my life. People been telling me I'm doing it wrong all the time too, but it just doesn't feel right on my left wrist =/
Really I always wanted to trash this watch wearing style( only on the left) thank god I did that way earlier but now im more confident about it, thanks to you
Funny as a lefty I wear my watch on my left wrist. Was taught by right handed parents as a kid that a watch goes on the left wrist. Now even after years of knowing the rule I still wear my watch on the left. The right wrist is uncomfortable to me. Just a case of getting used to it I suppose. I must admit over the years many drinks have been stupidly spilt looking at the time!
Actually the bottom button rule comes from waistcoats. On 5 button versions the bottom is left open to honour the king. It was considered uncouth to have the clothes bunched up around the neck when dining with the king so having the bottom button open allowed the waistcoat to spread and not push up the shirt and neckerchief or ruffle. Remember the frock coats of the time didn't fasten.
Laundry sorting… all clothes get folded and put on our living room couch. It’s everyone’s job to find what is theirs and bring it to their own room, ages 7 and up…
the only rule here i break is the sunglasses indoors. I have strong perscription glasses and sunglasses. If i'm wearing my sunglasses out and i don't have my other glasses with me (if i didn't bring a bag) then i just keep them on
Isn’t one of the main rules of watch winding is that it needs to be off the wrist in order to minimise the stress on the stem? Great vid nonetheless, love your content!
About the watch. Mainly watches are made to wear on the left hand but my question is can we wear the same watch on right hand were the crown is facing inside?
Actually blue and black dyes are rather expensive historically. At least in many cultures. Black was most expensive in Japan. Blue was the cheaper option. More so the expensive of cleaning white clothes. And some skilled trades did wear white. However more for formal wear so they could show off class. Keeping white clothes bright white wouldn't have been easy in the old days and probably would've needed more frequent replacement.
Hey Antonio. So just for clarification, the gig line is supposed to be aligned on the right side of the shirt placket and not the left (from first person's point of view perspective)? Thanks!
Not only left hand wearing adds to the security of once fragile watches. I still remember old folks in my childhood (I think immigrants from Europe m) wearing watches on the INSIDE of their wrists for even more protection. I incidentally wear them on my right hand. Don't know why. Always did.
LONGSWORDS!!! the best type of swords The most practical and lethal And if it's not that long it could be used on one hand for a little variety to keep your opponent guessing They also have a pomel to end them rightly (skalagrim inside joke)
@@XristosArgyropoulos don't forget that if you have chain gauntlet on you can grab your sword by the blade and smash the crossguard into your opponent's face... Long swords are versatile.
I never set my time while the watch is strapped to my wrist. Increase the risk of breaking or misaligning the crown. Always take off your watch before winding or adjusting the time.
i don't wear it as much as i used it... still had cool watch collection...but right now i busy getting sneaker... since alot of cool one coming out right now..
It actually is too annoying for me to be a lefty and still where my watch on left hand (it looks weird on right, I don't know why). Great video Antonio 👍
As a lefty I wear my watch on my left wrist too. Was taught by right handed parents as a kid that a watch goes on the left wrist. Now even after years of knowing the rule I still wear my watch on the left. The right wrist is uncomfortable to me. Just a case of getting used to it I suppose. I must admit over the years many drinks have been stupidly spilt looking at the time!
Same. I'm a lefty and I wear my watch on the left hand. Even though it hampers my writing and anything related, it still feels comfortable because I've been wearing it on the left hand ever since I started wearing watches. The right hand just feels uncomfortable and out of place xD
I’m left handed so I wear my watch on my right wrist. Tried wearing it on my left wrist since my family is all right handed, it just felt uncomfortable especially since I use my left hand a lot compared to my right hand.
I'm lefthanded and have my watch on the right arm, just for the reason to not have it scratched as easily. Also, it just feels more natural for me for some reason!
To be honest when I statred wearing watches in my childhood it always felt right in my right hand. Never thought of the crown until someone told me about it last year
I can’t wear my watch on my left wrist, because I have a tattoo on that wrist and it makes my Apple Watch ⌚️ not be able to detect that it is attached to me 🤦♂️ The funny thing is I put the tattoo there specifically so I could hide it underneath my watch 🤣 Oh well 😂
@Jorge Paez I can truly appreciate this comment being the lifestyle that I live by. Sometimes, people don't have or try to understand your perspective of life so they try to undermine your genuine traits or isolate you. That's usually because of ignorance. No offense to anyone,just some food for thought.....
I like this guy - concise, lots of knowledge, easy going and no trace of arrogance or snobbery, just the fact's m'am. But by the way, how about some in depth rules of you can and should not wear together i.e. button downs, shoes, belts, accessories, collar styles etc. I've been taught a lot of them but not sure if they're correct and always wondered where they came from - for example, I was always taught not to wear a button down shirt with a suit i.e. the jacket and pants are made from the same material - button downs should only be worn with a blazer/sport jacket and trousers. There are many of these rules - wondered if you could touch on them!
Antonio, you learned us to set the watch when it's not on the wrist because it damages the internal parts. Why do you tell us now that the crown is on right so we can set the watch easily?
I'm unable to watch your live videos because they happen when I'm working. Maybe you can set one up for a weekend. Just a thought. I've been watching your channel for almost 3 years now.
The classic Heuer Monaco Calibre 11 (not 12 !) has the crown on the left because it was a marketing statement: “This is an automatic chronograph that does not need to be wound”. No technical reason whatsoever, especially since this Calibre has a modular architecture.
I can’t wear my watch on my left hand because my left arm is messed up, so the range of twisting motion is shifted outwards, which means that I can’t (easily) twist my arm far enough inwards to look at my watch properly.
I've been told that the reason why women's buttons are on the opposite side of men is because women used to be dressed by other women. Thus made it easier for the dresser to do their job for the queen .
Do whatever you fancy. Wearing a watch with the watch on your palm side is easier to read the time when you are aiming down sighted of a gun...Military use.
Steve McQueen picked the Monaco out of a number of pieces brought to him by the costume designer - he resented people who tried to copy his style. Which is hilarious considering many brands blatantly use his image, our outright use his name, to sell their stuff... Tag, Persol, Ford...
İt may also hurt some of your right hand fingers when you shake hands with a person who has a watch on his right hand, especially with oversized metal bracelet watch.

Nice sword..... rahh
Hey Antonio what’s your opinion on Tiger Woods style?
Caught me off guard when he pulled that sword! I was like YO!!! 😂
You must be new around here lol,
Truss
The sword is blood thirsty now. He's going to have bad luck for unsheathing a sword for no reason.
Thought he was gonna pull out the glock haha
The sword trick left me 😳. NOT expecting that at all 🤣😂🤣😂
I'm left handed, but I've always found it more natural and convenient to wear it on my left hand. And with it being on my left hand I find myself looking at the time more often than when i try and use it on my right hand.
Nice Tudor BB, this goes perfectly with your leather jacket. Blue shirt with leather jacket is an absolute perfect combo.
Well done again
I'm left handed, but I wear my watch on the left hand. It's great to learn where the terms White & Blue collar come from. But I was distracted by your leather jacket. It's so good looking.
Antonio after 71 years I'm still learning a lot thank you for all that info Tony
Watches on the right hand side. If you do a lot of business with another country by phone/email etc, where you need to have a regular communication, wear a second watch on the right wrist set to the other time zone. it'll stop you having to constantly work out the time in the other zone, similar to offices that have 2 clocks on a wall.
I finally learned why certain jobs are called “blue collar” and “white collar” lol
😳
I was like what! You know? Lol umm so blue is the working class, an white collars is the office top notch, got it
Videos are getting better and better, thanks for getting me into caring about men style :)
Damn, Antonio shows why he's the best men's lifestyle channel by dropping way too much history on us and slipping in a completely unobtrusive promotion!! I learned a lot and appreciate the research you've done.
Lol imagine the balls to check the time halfway through a tennis point
Exactly
Very informative.
I do have the same Молниьа from my grandfather. It still works. Fine piece of art.
Very informative, I love the way you cut to the chase.
you read my mind: there is always LOGIC behind " fashion", and if there is not, it is objectively a mistake, it is not that subjective or a simple matter of taste as many believe.
Exactly!
Agreed. However why aren't cargo pants considered fashionable based on this explanation?
@@animeperspective9866 why would they be? That there is a logic behind something does not make it "fashion".
Can we just appriciate the absolute beauty of that leather jacket?

I'm one of those Mugs that uses both hands. I only really use my right hand when I write but even then, I can write perfectly with the left one too.
I'm righthanded and have been wearing my watch on my righthand all my life. People been telling me I'm doing it wrong all the time too, but it just doesn't feel right on my left wrist =/
Well I bought that Tudor LHD dive watch he showed and wear it on my left wrist🤣 I just like the look of it better than the regular Pelagos
Same situation as a lefty and the watch on the left wrist
Me too 🙋♂️, right handed but wear the watch on right wrist
Really I always wanted to trash this watch wearing style( only on the left) thank god I did that way earlier but now im more confident about it, thanks to you
Sorry left handed over here so the watch is opposite. Such a rebel as my wife would say lol
Go back to 1:39 and Nadal is wearing his watch on his right hand. Also look up his watch the price tag is insane.

Nice watch collection. I love the Monaco!

Thanks for all your hard work, Antonio.
Many thanks!
I always wear a watch on my left wrist simply because it's more comfortable. I had no idea it was a style rule.
the only rule here i break is the sunglasses indoors. I have strong perscription glasses and sunglasses. If i'm wearing my sunglasses out and i don't have my other glasses with me (if i didn't bring a bag) then i just keep them on

Who on earth would dislike this video
I'm left handed, so i have to wear my watch on right hand
Same here

Traditionally, denim is used in workshops as it protects you from metal chips and peices. So, blue became the shirt color.
That leather jacket 🔥 for real I’m jealous 😫
LOL - managed to get to 56 years of age without knowing why watches worn on the left 😯 Yeah fab jacket
My man Ant pulled out a whole saber. En guard Lol

Wait.. apple watches don't work if you put it over a tattoo? That a bit of a mega flaw in design that apple overlooked..
So...does that mean I should wear my watch on my right since I'm a lefty? Because I already wear my watches on my right

What's your take on a button up shirt over a t-shirt with 3 buttons? Too many buttons?
I wear my watch on my right wrist because I control it better than my left. What I mean by that is I hit my left arm on desks, door knobs, etc lol.
Mr. Centeno, is there any site from which I can buy pocket watches?
and I love all the research you do in order to make these videos!
I plan to watch tomorrow morning.
Awesome! See you tomorrow morning.
The classic Heuer Monaco Calibre 11 (not 12 !) has the crown on the left because it was a marketing statement: “This is an automatic chronograph that does not need to be wound”. No technical reason whatsoever, especially since this Calibre has a modular architecture.
amazing tips man! thanks for sharing :)
3:09. It *raises* the question.
Mr RMRS, why do you like this your inner blue shirt so much? Was it one of your favorite in the Marine? 😍
he can not help himself... same with my purple shirt...
I can’t wear my watch on my left hand because my left arm is messed up, so the range of twisting motion is shifted outwards, which means that I can’t (easily) twist my arm far enough inwards to look at my watch properly.
I like the fact that he actualy pulled out a sword
I've been told that the reason why women's buttons are on the opposite side of men is because women used to be dressed by other women. Thus made it easier for the dresser to do their job for the queen .
Sweet leather jacket, can't see the link the description tho
Great video like always
Africa follows you too, RMRS. Zambia🇿🇲
I love your suit video please make some more of them
👌🏻❤️💯 great video
I've seen people wear their watches with the face on the same side as the palm. Do you think that should be avoided?
Do whatever you fancy. Wearing a watch with the watch on your palm side is easier to read the time when you are aiming down sighted of a gun...Military use.
Beautiful jacket!
Antonio, that jacket is nice, but man the audio is picking up the leather crinkle very hard.
Yes Brown in town.
Why because Im 35 and this is the wealthiest I can get and still have time to raise a family before retirement.
Steve McQueen picked the Monaco out of a number of pieces brought to him by the costume designer - he resented people who tried to copy his style. Which is hilarious considering many brands blatantly use his image, our outright use his name, to sell their stuff... Tag, Persol, Ford...
