Hi everyone, thanks for watching. I hope you enjoyed my adventures shopping around with Kevin. What do you want to see in the future from this series? More episodes with Kevin? Different brands? Please leave comments and thanks again for all your support!
I've very much enjoyed these episodes with Kevin. I believe if you had the opportunity to make him a "regular" guest on your channel would be excellent. That said I think that the way you go about putting these together everyone is going to enjoy whomever you choose to get together with.
I would love to make a suggestion as I like watching your brand grow. Take Kevin to Switzerland have him talk about his upbringing there while touring famous watch manufacturers. I know it has its expenses but the horological value and Kevin's rich story telling abilities would create a once in a lifetime experience for both of you and it would make for a great video series. You could break up the video like this into 5 to 10 videos to recoup the cost. Advertising each video weekly to increase viewer retention. Also I filled out your watch strap questionnaire. You have some real winners in there and I think you did a great job of providing versatility to appeal to a wide range of buyers.
YAI YAI YAI I don’t know, the GS spring drive was the worst watch I ever owned. GS has horrible customer service, warranty doesn’t cover the internal magnets. Mine stopped from magnetized or demagnetized internal magnets from traveling through an airport scanner. GS charged me $880 to recharge the internal magnets, the watch was barely a year old, had to be sent to Japan and took over 2 months. Still love my regular Seiko watches the ones made in Japan are still a great value. But buying a $10,000 watch should get you better customer service, a warranty that covers the main part of the movement and at least some magnetic protection. Mine was the GS SBGC221. I sold this watch and a Rolex Anniversary Submariner, I definitely do not miss the GS or wish I kept it. Picked up an aquanaut in their place, now that’s a great watch.
Peter Choma woah, can see what you mean for sure, what a let down. I heard you can get this easily done with IWC pilot watches. I’ve never had to with mine but now I’m curious
YAI YAI YAI the only other watch I’ve ever had to demagnetize was a Rolex and I dropped it off at my AD on Monday and picked it up Wednesday, no charge. So GS was a shock.
I bought my first Grand Seiko recently (sbgk005) and absolutely love it. But I hope your experience was a fluke, because they have to have customer service that is equal to the luxury standard of other companies if they wish to succeed.
You’ve found a good friend in Kevin. Amazingly fun to watch multi-millionaires that you see on TV just being real and hanging out with a guy on TH-cam for many hours and videos. You’re a lucky man!!
“Some kind of beater.” Yup, whole different world and perspective when you have THAT much money! Anyway, great part 2 Teddy. I really hope you could make this a series. And not necessarily with a billionaire. I would love a series of “shopping” videos and in different price categories. I like this one with money is no object. But maybe other levels?
Kevin’s passion for F P Journe really comes across again the videos with Teddy and Kevin are so interesting they just seem to bounce off each other Great video thank you
talking to my dad about watches: "don't make the same mistake as me, 3 watches is enough, nobody needs 20+ watches"... ...also my dad 5 minutes later "the Panerei Luminor Ceramic is awesome, i think i'm going to buy one"
Teddy, thank you for helping me, and I'm sure many others, realize the true art behind watch making and collecting! Been a fan for a while but with every episode that comes out, I just become a bigger fan. Keep up the amazing work!
you really got me into watches and before i bought FASHION watches but i but then i looked into brands such as Seiko and now i own grand Seiko watches which are much better quality thanks
@@harrislam Some people do have that kind of cash, I could buy any of those but it would be too much money in an item that may not appreciate in value (it could, but it’s not safe, there’s an opportunity cost loss). I’m not bragging it’s just a fact, some people in the comments can afford them. They’re not millions of dollars.
Great part two Teddy, yes siree bob, very interesting. How about a Grand Seiko tour? You could do Seiko at the same time. And have a great Japanese holiday.
I absolutely love these videos with Kevin. To have someone share what they are invested, both emotionally, and financially in something he is so passionate about. His insight is unrivalled. Thank you
I like this Kevin. His passion and knowledge of watches is the side of him I rarely see, you can tell he really enjoys them. Great series, glad I found it.
Oh my gosh Teddy I been spending all day watching you guys shopping all these spectacular watches, is amazing! Love it thank you so much for sharing and this whole idea so that we as the watches lovers can enjoy so much!
This guy is THE gold standard for horology videos on TH-cam. Amazing video Teddy! Would love to see you and Kevin hit up a Richard Mille store in the future!
I have just started watching these videos and what strikes me is the professional quality. They're not just good in terms of content, but the production values. They're a cut above the ordinary.
@@ekimandersom4478 The original comment is nothing to do with retaining value lol where do you people come from honestly, always relating watches to retaining value
Teddy my everyday watch is a 1943 Omega black face 26.5T3. Two years ago I imported it from India. It worked for two weeks. It is a real beautiful watch. The movement was glued together. My Repairman said the parts I needed were unattainable. For two years I searched the internet. I found a watch in New Zealand for $300.00. I bought it. My repairman took the parts he needed. I got the watch Back and it is spot on. I am very happy. I finally put a picture on Facebook.. I was born in Mansfield Ohio.
That ”beater” watch is just stunning specification. I had to take screenshot. If I ever get rolex it is like this, only bigger diameter if they make them, since I have larger wrists.
I wish Teddy had more time to talk during these videos with Kevin. Kevin has great stories for sure, but Teddy is such a wealth of knowledge. It'd be great to listen to what he has to say about all of the different pieces that he has looked at with Kevin. Nonetheless, great video. Keep up the great content, Teddy!
This series I watched with an eye of an enthusiast. I definitely cannot afford them, but the story behind the brands and the pieces is just too intriguing. Also, its so refreshing to see Kevin o Leary in this mood. Its like we are seeing a different Mr. Wonderful to the one on TV. Teddy, I am a fan of your channel. Its to inspiring to see what you have accomplished in your age. Lots of respect and love.
I love your videos with Kevin. I collect watches also and have the bug for the high end watches. Best advice and after I realized it was his comment was best to have a collection of 10 watches for most people. I had over 30 and constant battle on which to wear, etc......getting down to the 10 made things so much better.
@@GODSPEEDseven He was trying to let the owner of the company know he was willing to be raped right then and there. all of these watches are available second hand atm and treating watches like an investment is incredibly naive. For someone who is not a tourist he sure is behaving like one.
Teddy, I rarely say this because I'm usually easily impressed. But this time, just your vibe with Mr. Wonderful bright so many smiles to my face! I absolutely love watching your videos and educating myself on different watch brands and what to look for!
Teddy, your doing all the right things for a successful 2020. We can see the hard work your putting in and appreciate the videos. Shopping with watch collectors is a great idea. All the best!! Carlos
I like the way Kevin O'Leary loves, watches. He explains why, and has a particular way, and vision about the subject. In a very intimmate way , open heart and mind about watch houses and their traditions in watch making, this was a good video. Kevin is always a good conversationalist, and a good guest, what ever the matter, of the any givin program.
Epic. I need to visit F.P. Journe watch and add at least one to the collection. Really loved the Vacheron Constantin Overseas with the blue face and trying to find one now.
It's off the topic but still, I think you should take a look at the Mido multifort patrimony watch. The watch looks so cool with its vintage aesthetics, syringe hands, boxy sapphire crystal and pulsometer.
There were multiple times Kevin said "the F.P. Journe virus." After seeing how excited he was to share his love and appreciation of the watchmaker, it was literally infectious!
Hi Teddy. Great channel. I purchased a Sector ADV 4500 around 25 years ago. It’s been collecting dust for a long time. Watching your channel has inspired me to get it working again. I spent around 600 dollars on in the 90’s. Any thoughts on older Sector watches. I really love that Zodiac watch you reviewed. Do you think the Zodiac watches will retain their value?
"Not many people can buy four watches in one day" Mr. O'Leary I will have you know I could step out my front door tomorrow and buy FIVE watches! ...... Granted they'd all be Seiko 5s BUT
Another Grandpa teaches Grandson genre classic. More of these please. The seasoned sage passes on his pearls of wisdom to the young kid. What else but the ceramic Daytona as the beater watch? A perfect weekender especially on the red strap, my soccer team colors. Just wonderful. The FPJ pieces are so refreshing. The collector’s choice with the entry level quartz piece very attractively priced for most pockets. The world of watches, just like the wonder room in Selfridges or the watch department of Harrods. The watch addiction with this one strong is. Keep them coming. Keep buying and keep sharing.
I bought my first luxury watch, a Grand Seiko SBGE201, in large part because of this video and Mr. Wonderful's recommendation in this video. Thank you Teddy!
This video introduced me to the Chronometre Bleu and I have to say, it is by far the most stunningly beautiful watch I've ever seen. The proportions of the dial, and that shade of blue *chef's kiss*. Would love to see it in person someday.
I know how many times I have watched this video. You guys are the best on TH-cam. I would love to see you guys talking about the Citizen watches. Watches that everyone can get it.
Beast Jr its different when you do your research and come to your own conclusions instead of memorizing lines dealers told you to sell you a watch. He doesn't demonstrate a deeper understanding of the watches besides from what we all know.
@@oscarcordero4436 He’s clearly in it for the money. Teddy had to correct him about the helium escape valve on a Seamaster in one video. He also said he doesn’t care about your movement. A true watch collector should care about the entire watch and know about the movement
Can you make some material video on High End watches and service cost? Who has the best parts service? Who has the most expensive service fees? Which brands don't need servicing? How often to service a watch?
Yeah FPJ is like the pseudo watch enthusiasts name brand to name to seem like they know what they are talking about. Hardly rare. Now in perspective to some other brands sure they are more rare but are easily available and all over the secondary market. The 1 of 10 FPJ statement is a marketing ploy and in fact every boutique only receives 10 per year of the limited edition series and there are quite a lot of boutiques so you do the math but it’s no we’re near only 1 of 10 produced.
Lav True, but it doesn’t mean you’re not a collector... I found it a little derogatory towards the vast majority of people who have to save for ages before affording a piece... what these rich people do is watch buying not collecting
@@kevin_howell I hear you! What did Archie Luxury say in his one on one interview with Teddy? "It's [collecting] gotta hurt for it to be meaningful". I saved for 5 years to afford my Explorer 1, and another six after that for my first (and most likely only) high-end precious metal Parmigiani Fleurier. Next will be either a GS or a JLC, whenever the coffers get replenished 😁😁😁😁
“I don’t buy one of anything cause that’s just being a tourist”. “My beater is a Daytona”. Lmao. Can’t make this up. I’m gonna write a book with Kevin’s quotes. O’learysms. 😂
Great 2-part series, Teddy. Always enjoy watching Kevin! Such a charismatic person with valuable insights on a wide range of topics. I loved the back-and-forth between 2 genuine watch aficionados. Hope to see him again on your channel!
Cool to watch, but the last seen when kevin shows his 4, it turned me off, it snapped and became warped and just hyper biased. Sounds almost like kevin was trying to drive the price up or some weird strange addiction like a guy eating cat hair
Teddy this is just about the best watch video series I have seen on youtube or not. Extremely enjoyable...the whole family watched it on a big 60" 4k tv 😁
Probably the most fascinating video on unique time/art pieces I've ever seen. Amazing job donne here! And I fell in love with that entry level fp journe watch.
This watch shopping series with Mr. Wonderful is my dream......your watch shopping video at Walmart, Target and Kohl's is my reality! Great videos Teddy!
Country Prepper Fully agree. Once the nowelty of the super rich wears off and they are onto another maison Journe will wish to sell any watch to the avarage Joe.
The Grand Seiko with the battery reserve gauge on the dial are gorgeous. A few of the Seiko watches have them too. I have one of the newer Seiko 5 for an all around daily wear that I’m not afraid to get rough with. I never wear the one Rolex I have, just love the Japanese watches more.
Hi everyone, thanks for watching. I hope you enjoyed my adventures shopping around with Kevin. What do you want to see in the future from this series? More episodes with Kevin? Different brands? Please leave comments and thanks again for all your support!
You should really show Kevin some pieces from Kari Voutilainen!
Please try to do this with John Mayer as well!!!
Excellent video. Well done! This clip opened my eyes to FP Journe.

There's nothing else like this on TH-cam. You're killing it. Next take him to a Grand Seiko boutique and talk value!
Love the idea Brian and thank you for your kind words! Enjoy the weekend my friend!
I second this
After watching your video I had to checkout grand seiko. Was surprised Mr. Wonderful likes them..
Oh boy, wouldn't that be NSFW
I should have read this before I posted my comment. Spot on man.

To everyone working hard to get one Vacheron : keep in mind that you're just a "tourist" :-D

Yeah but he only wanted the hype blue dial that everyone else wants.
That comment makes him look like an absolute c**t.
Yeah...I'm going to need a few million dollars after these videos.
Haha I feel your pain. Thanks for watching, Jack!
Kevin giving the value nod to Grand Seiko... I’m liking the guy more and more!

Please visit a Grand Seiko Boutique with Kevin. I’d love his opinion of the Godzilla model.

Teddy make more of this! I even watched the commercials all the way through so you get a pay incentive.
Thank you my friend! I can keep this going!
You know a real watch enthusiast when he mentions Grand Seiko.
Watch the previous part, he talks about GS there as well!
talking to my dad about watches:
"don't make the same mistake as me, 3 watches is enough, nobody needs 20+ watches"...
...also my dad 5 minutes later
"the Panerei Luminor Ceramic is awesome, i think i'm going to buy one"
The internal struggle of a watch enthusiast.
@@TeddyBaldassarre You will be a similar dad for sure
That’s where the saying “Do as I say, not as I do.” Comes from...
The chronometre bleu is breathtaking. My goodness.
"Once you get the Journe virus ... you're f ... " lol absolutely priceless. This series is absolutely amazing.

Wow thanks for this kind message! Keep sharing your love with watches with others! It’s a fantastic hobby and art form that I want to stay alive!

That is awesome, Iva. Thanks for watching!
i NEED ATLEAST 7 more PARTS

Mr Wonderful talks to Teddy about watches like he’s trying to sell him one. Absolutely love the passion!
Great, now I'm looking at F.P. Journe, the last f'ing thing I needed.

How many times will Kevin say Maison in this video?
Fantastic interview please keep the videos coming with Kevin, so much knowledge between the both of you extremely interesting.

Why isn’t Kevin wearing his seatbelt!?

Thank you for taking us on this fantastic watch tour. You and Mr Wonderful had a great flow.

Been waiting for part 2 all week!
Well it is finally here!

A man in love with his own voice.
Teddy has him on the show for *him* to talk. Teddy talks in every video.

I gotta say, he accurately painted what F.P.Journe is - something else. Also, I think we all learned that we're a bunch of tourists!
The blue dial F.P. Journe is my favorite. I also want the large clock sitting next to Kevin.
He’s making is seem like they are so rare.. I just found ever single on of them on chrono24 lol .. multiple actually
Yeah FPJ is like the pseudo watch enthusiasts name brand to name to seem like they know what they are talking about. Hardly rare. Now in perspective to some other brands sure they are more rare but are easily available and all over the secondary market. The 1 of 10 FPJ statement is a marketing ploy and in fact every boutique only receives 10 per year of the limited edition series and there are quite a lot of boutiques so you do the math but it’s no we’re near only 1 of 10 produced.
Kevin talks so elegantly about time pieces, reminds me of my love of collecting
Tourist of a brand... what a ridiculous statement.
Well tbh it kinda makes sense. Your not a collector of a brand if you only have 1
Lav True, but it doesn’t mean you’re not a collector... I found it a little derogatory towards the vast majority of people who have to save for ages before affording a piece... what these rich people do is watch buying not collecting
@@kevin_howell I hear you! What did Archie Luxury say in his one on one interview with Teddy? "It's [collecting] gotta hurt for it to be meaningful". I saved for 5 years to afford my Explorer 1, and another six after that for my first (and most likely only) high-end precious metal Parmigiani Fleurier. Next will be either a GS or a JLC, whenever the coffers get replenished 😁😁😁😁
@@kevin_howell Don't be snowflake.
marcustya88 lol 😂
Looking to pull the trigger on a FPJ CS Havanna dial. Great video Teddy!
Stunning piece, George. Thanks for watching!
@@TeddyBaldassarre Just pulled the trigger on it today. That dial is just awesome.
“I don’t buy one of anything cause that’s just being a tourist”.
“My beater is a Daytona”.
Lmao. Can’t make this up. I’m gonna write a book with Kevin’s quotes. O’learysms. 😂
Great 2-part series, Teddy. Always enjoy watching Kevin! Such a charismatic person with valuable insights on a wide range of topics. I loved the back-and-forth between 2 genuine watch aficionados. Hope to see him again on your channel!
Cool to watch, but the last seen when kevin shows his 4, it turned me off, it snapped and became warped and just hyper biased. Sounds almost like kevin was trying to drive the price up or some weird strange addiction like a guy eating cat hair
Teddy this is just about the best watch video series I have seen on youtube or not. Extremely enjoyable...the whole family watched it on a big 60" 4k tv 😁
Would love to see him introduced to Roger Smith and his watches
Yes!! I mentioned that to him. There some independents he still needs to look into. De Bethune might resonate with him.
Roger smith is a genius. FP is a crazy genius. Love them both.
Probably the most fascinating video on unique time/art pieces I've ever seen. Amazing job donne here! And I fell in love with that entry level fp journe watch.
Why is noone talking about what is Teddy showing on the thumbnail with his hands😂
David Gjerek you’re right, he’s flippin’ the bird!!! 😨
This watch shopping series with Mr. Wonderful is my dream......your watch shopping video at Walmart, Target and Kohl's is my reality! Great videos Teddy!
He doesn't care, I don't care. I would not consider buying anything from any company that expects me to behave a certain way to attain it.
Country Prepper Fully agree. Once the nowelty of the super rich wears off and they are onto another maison Journe will wish to sell any watch to the avarage Joe.
@@golfraven5669 yes just like Jacob and company. Check out producer Micheal buy like 15 or more on the cheap 👍👍
The Grand Seiko with the battery reserve gauge on the dial are gorgeous. A few of the Seiko watches have them too. I have one of the newer Seiko 5 for an all around daily wear that I’m not afraid to get rough with. I never wear the one Rolex I have, just love the Japanese watches more.
