Same. The more I make in my career the less I want to spend. I know, weird. Point of diminishing return for "stuff" is always on my mind. Love these videos.
My watch was purchased 2 years ago from amzwatch and, to this day, it still looks and runs as well as it did the day it arrived. That movement has never missed a beat despite never having been serviced. I can't complain about that.
I've just turned 60 and have retired. I finally have the time to get that university degree i've always wanted. I have some higher end watches, but looking back to the affordable is fun. It's common to only look up in the collecting journey but there are some great watches these days if you aren't hung up on price point.
I would like to see a video about SOLAR watches. Pros and Cons. Why they haven't taken over the industry. How they are the most environmentally friendly watch. Or possibly not (not my expertise). I have a solar from Seiko. Functionally, I find it to be my best watch. I don't need a winder. I never need to change batteries. I have never had the watch be without power or stop. To me it solves the problems or Quartz, Mechanical and Automatic. But what do I know. I hope Teddy will read this and do a video about SOLAR.
Thank you Teddy for all that you do! I am new to watch collecting and was immediately overwhelmed. Your videos and blogs have helped tremendously. I just purchased my first watch from your site, the Certina DS PH500. Will was tremendous in recommending some alternative straps as well (not just ones from your site). Incredible service and I will certainly be spreading the word. Thanks again!
I was offered a Seiko 5 Diver when I get off of high school and then all along my scholarship I bought various watches (another Seiko 5, a military One, a Citizen Promaster NY0040, a vintage Seiko Sportsman, a vintage Certina and a fun Swatch) and during all this Time I was lurking around the Black Bay 36, the old one with a Sellita and oyster bracelet, I will be graduated in December but in April, when I learned that it will be discontinued I got the last one of a Paris Store because it had to be this one, and after nearly 6 month I absolutely love it ! It suits my style very well, thus it’s discreet and only the people interested in watches notice it, i could carry it in all my adventures, I cycle to work and school every day, I do bike travel, I went to the sea with it and it’s very reliable and resistant. Of course its polished bezel catches some scratches but I bought it for it to be with me all the time and I know that every scratch was made by me, and will always remember me of this time of my life, the end of my studies, my first time living in Paris and everything, I hope I could keep it forever and I know that the Sellita movement will be cheap to service and repair if I need to !
Yes, I have bought from MaMaCoo more than once. I even bought a new Omega Speedmaster which came with the fancy box and packaging. I am thrilled with all my purchases here. I would purchase from MaMaCoo again for sure.
Today I got my first watch! It’s a Tissot, I fell in love with the brand a while back, and only recently I had the chance to buy my first time piece, this specific watch is around $700 but I got it for nearly half the price from a local authorized reseller! First of many ❤️
My first watch when I go college is Tudor Black Bay GMT Pepsi. Got it at 18 years old but is a 19 years old gift from my parents but the time bought it I was still 18.
I bought a watch from MAMACOO lightly used for my last milestone birthday. Don't wear it as much as it deserves, but not afraid to, either. It's stunning . Good taste, Sir.
So I naively thought that this was going to be about watches for students of horology or watchmaking... Ones that are easy to work on or have features that you can learn from...?
My top 5 watches on my achievable bucket list are The Tissot Gentleman Emerald variant, The Oris Big Crown crimson variant, the Tudor 1926 Opaline with blue hands version, The TAG Heuer formula 1 with the Red and Green logo and lastly the Christopher Ward Twelve Ti purple version set for Presale this November. I am going to give Santa a call......lolol
I think seiko prospex is better than seiko sport for collage/uni cuz the more durable, get the beautiful movement, and more importantly one of the heritage of seiko, and also they got like budget one like $350 or $400
Sadly, watch use among high school students is around 25% and headed down. I've offered to buy my sons (18 & 20) a watch for a birthday or Christmas and they have no interest.
Hi there! On this vein, I'm a graduate student in a laboratory and have a love for watches. I've always been fascinated by the idea of watches being a tool that meets particular industry standards: aviation, diving, travelling etc. The Rolex Milgauss famously holds the title as the scientist's watch due to the faraday cage and the relationship with CERN. I was wondering whether you could do a feature on watches for scientists? Working in cell culture, I've found my Seiko SNZF15K1 helpful as the steel bracelet can be sterilised and the rotating bezel used to mark the time for reagent mixtures. Was wondering whether there are many watches specifically designed for this industry/field.
Would be nice to have some variety, for example from Tissot and Longines the same models get reccomended over and over again in these "Best Watches For..." videos.. Longines for example still makes the Flagship model (not the vintage recreation one) that has very, very good price for what you get, or maybe the Record line with the nice tight tolerance bracelets and saphire front and back. For Tissot maybe the PR100 with the nice textured dial or the Chemin de Tourelles automatic for something elegant. When I here Tissot I know it is either going to be the PRX or the Gentleman, and from Longines It is either going to be the Hidroconquest or the Spirit (and maybe, the Heritage Classic). I like the channel very much and folow the content regularily, good stuff!
Love my Duro, it's been a daily for over 2yrs. I'm VERY hard on watches, have NO scratches on the crystal. Although I bang mine almost daily on metal monos and shelving, and the mineral crystal is just fine. A few scratches and a little ding on the aluminum insert, with minimal scratching on the case(not really noticeable). I've spent more on straps then on the watch and Love it... Spends most of its time on a StrapCode 22mm Super-J Louis JUB Watch Band Straight End, 316L Stainless Steel Solid V-Clasp Button Double Lock. My ONLY issue with this IS that Bill Gates wears one. I've never had a Timex "that took a licking and kept on ticking"... Not a SWATCH fan... do like some of the Company's that are part of the Group. Wish the Citizen Chandler was a little bigger 39mm or 40mm. Prefer the Tissot Gentleman over the PRX... the styling is timless, and has more versitility. It's a contender for a 1 watch collection. The Oris Big Crown is on my list..
I have a real SUB but I also bought one of these replicas from amzwatch for piece of mind if I go to another country or if I am doing activities that can damage the watch. I don't see anything wrong with that.
Hi Teddy, you missed couple of more in the affordable, college student, young graduate category, the Yema Classic YEAU 017 and their ladies Flygraf quartz YMHF1578AA-GM French Air & Space Force UTC Femme watch are two very good ones. Not sure why you haven’t covered much about Yema at all.
The game and the watch will both last the same amount of time if you buy a single player game. Also, some games can become so highly collectable they're worth just as much as some watches.
This is now my favourite watch channel on TH-cam , such great content and done superbly, well done sir and I got my favourite watch at MaMaCoo，it hasn’t left my wrist for weeks
It was a great episode again, thanks a lot! I prefer the bigger size, but I can imagine the green one rubber on my girlfriends wrist, but I don't have a girlfriend for a while 😂
please think about your subs who lives in a poor country. I'll be college student few months later and I can only afford max 120$ so can you make a list for under 100$. That would be very good for me and for others like me.
Goodday watch family last year video was excellent . This year video majestic. Watch I love from high school to work and classic life style. U are a great watch Dean , teacher and consumer. Big up ya self Mr.Teddy b
In Toronto canada I buy a super super clone I bring it to a rolex expert he say it was real rolex . Unbelievable. Your super clone look just like mine. You a expert but a regular person like me will never know. Imagine on NKUWAN
I have a real SUB but I also bought one of these replicas from amzwatch for piece of mind if I go to another country or if I am doing activities that can damage the watch. I don't see anything wrong with that.
Currently a Uni student. My first watch that got me into watches was a vintage gold Citizen 7 automatic which belonged to my late grandfather. Recently I did well in my current year and got a relatively good job and decided to get my first watch a Seiko 5 sports GMT Blueberry. I love it and its constantly on my hand.
We share a same story. :) Have a vintage Citizen from my granddad, my dad was wearing it in an army training, and somehow it ended up in my drawer, like nothing special, and after few years I looked them up and I was surprised what it was, then my dad said it was from my grandad and that added more value than the real price of them. It really introduced me into watch stuff.
The only omega mentioned here is for the highschool sections. I beleive this video showcases appropriate choices for every budget, although it is possible that you are comtempt with this selection.
I gifted two of my nephews in college, Seiko SRPD95 watches. Under $250, silicone straps, see through case with the 4R movement, it is a such a cool piece. Got them started into their mechanical / automatic watch journey.
Is this a joke mate? Most students are struggling to eat now with the price of living and here you are parading watches they should buy off your website naturally, sorry Teddy but you are out of touch with reality !
It is very useful for most students to have a watch without a screen. Ideally it would have some sort of timer/stopwatch capability, including a dive watch bezel. Phones are not allowed in tests, and being able to pace oneself in a consistent way takes some stress out of the process. Having to find the clock in each room, and figure out if it's accurate, is unnecessary when the student has their watch on their wrist. It is also helpful with time management when studying, again avoiding the distraction of checking a phone or computer for the time. Thank you for leaving in Teddy's attempt to say the old Timex slogan!
This just sounds like someone trying to convince their parents to buy them a watch. If a clock is in the exam room, then it’s accurate. A watch is a nice-to-have fashion accessory, don’t waste your money thinking it’ll have practical applications.
@@acojo8205 It's an educator trying to convince students to buy a watch, especially those who struggle with time management during tests. "If a clock is in the exam room, then it’s accurate." You should go to more schools.
I personally use analog watches to deal with questions regarding directions, like "John moved 20m south, then turned left and then 40m later, he reached his home. What direction is he facing?"(Things get a lot more complicated than this, this is just an example)
Love the gentleman and have gotten so many complements on it! Really looks like you are wearing an Oyster perpetual but for fraction of the price and it is from a reliable swiss brand!
I just love that you mentioned the Tudor BB36. I fell in love with it when it released and I was still in high school. Now 5 years later and an engineering degree, I have finally made the purchase. The older version with the ETA movement and the beautiful blue dial. A watch for life.
Hey teddy !! Can you Please Review The Brand - Thomas Earnshaw and it’s Automatic watches . I only know that it started in 2011 in England and is owned by Darthmouth Brands Group of the UK .
Earnshaw is a British Watch Brand . It Manufactures Its Watches in England and Hong Kong and some Expensive Models in Switzerland. Overall their Watches are Very good and Look very Attractive at Affordable Prices.
How does a college student spend $1K on a watch? Even regular job holders will think 10 times before such an investment. And college students are broke.
Shout out to Teddy for the intro, helping ppl keep it “Reasonable”, my first piece above 1k (a Bvlgari) put me in a real bad position for a year after I had lost hours at work. I love the watch until this date but I’m not buying anything I can’t at least put half the purchase price down on. With all these fun brands sub 1K, you’ll never run out of options. Take your time with it 💪🏾
I have been deep into watches for almost 5 years now so, not very green. And I have 3 watches in my collection. And I love these watches, all three get a lot of wrist time and cover every aspect of my day to day life. So, I agree with Teddy when he says “it’s a marathon not a sprint”.
@@zacharyandrews1085 thanks for your interest. I have a Seiko solar tank (For formal occasions), a Casioak (beater/workout watch) and a Nomos club campus (daily/office wear)
When I passed the Bar I gifted myself with an Orient Bambino. I know it is not even close to an entry-level luxury watch but for a new professional like me I just couldn't justify spending anything close to a $1,000 for a wristwatch especially when something like Orient and a lot of other watch brands offer great quality watches for less money. I get the craftmanship and heritage behind more expensive watches but I guess it's just not my priority especially at a time when the economy is only favorable to an incredibly small percentage of the populatuon.
Great list Teddy. I'd also add the quartz version of the Tissot Gentleman as an alternative budget option and on the higher end something like a Nomos Club Campus would be a great choice too. I work at a University though and can say most students who are wearing watches that aren't smart watches tend to be G-shocks and Casios.
I am blessed to have a preteen son who has inherited my love of watches. He wears his black Casio LRW-200H with pride. Being able to read an analog dial and work a rotating bezel is a "cool skill" among middle schoolers!
High School - CASIO
College - CASIO
Trade School - CASIO
Post Grad - CASIO
bruh same I'm using casio illuminator
I’m upgrading to an Orient Ray II for post-grad from my Casioak 😂 (arguably even an upgrade in terms of capabilities)
@@themarvelzone5878 holy shit same
casio best choice :))
Im using casio calculator
I love these student videos. I’m actually 41, but I like them affordable watches 😂
Hey, learning is a lifelong endeavor!
LOL same here I'm 29 and I'm about to purchase my first watch, a tissot gentleman 😂
Same. The more I make in my career the less I want to spend. I know, weird. Point of diminishing return for "stuff" is always on my mind. Love these videos.
Same here !
awesome!@@nicolofurlan2278
My watch was purchased 2 years ago from amzwatch and, to this day, it still looks and runs as well as it did the day it arrived. That movement has never missed a beat despite never having been serviced. I can't complain about that.
First post grad watch was a new black bay 👍🏾
Wouldn’t have got it without your Tudor videos.
I've just turned 60 and have retired. I finally have the time to get that university degree i've always wanted. I have some higher end watches, but looking back to the affordable is fun. It's common to only look up in the collecting journey but there are some great watches these days if you aren't hung up on price point.
I got myself a Citizen Series 8 830
Watches are so delicate and intricately designed, so I have intense respect and admiration for amzwatch watch makers

Thank you Teddy, I love your advice about watch collecting is a marathon not a sprint and we shouldn't get consumed by that. That is priceless
Watches are so delicate and intricately designed, so I have intense respect and admiration for mamacoo watch makers
We’ll said about the marathon of collecting.
Guys I want to buy a Luxury Swiss Watch. Please suggest Which Brand should I choose from - Frederique Constant , Rado or Longines .
You should go for Frederique Constant or Longines . Rado is shit .
Longines definetely
Frederique Constant Is Far Better than Longines . I have used both of these brands watches for the last 3 years . I have nothing to say about Rado.
I think that for high schooles budget should not be biger then 50 $, and there is plenty of Casios for that money
Bought a Sarb 035 when I started college, and now just bought a Black Bay GMT as I start my PhD. great choices here, teddy
Thank you for making high quality videos!Love amzwatch ’s watches
Make a “Student Loan Payments Returning Watches” video next week for us to prepare for those payments starting up again.
I think that’s been done with a watches at Walmart video 😂
I personally recommend the Seiko Speedtimer, which I got for my bday. It's a perfect watch.
Yes, I have bought from MaMaCoo more than once. I even bought a new Omega Speedmaster which came with the fancy box and packaging. I am thrilled with all my purchases here. I would purchase from MaMaCoo again for sure.

Ok, what makes a watch considered a good watch? I’m trying to understand watches and the different levels.
I would nominate the Bulova Lunar Pilot. There's some incredible value and history there.

Hi there! On this vein, I'm a graduate student in a laboratory and have a love for watches. I've always been fascinated by the idea of watches being a tool that meets particular industry standards: aviation, diving, travelling etc. The Rolex Milgauss famously holds the title as the scientist's watch due to the faraday cage and the relationship with CERN. I was wondering whether you could do a feature on watches for scientists? Working in cell culture, I've found my Seiko SNZF15K1 helpful as the steel bracelet can be sterilised and the rotating bezel used to mark the time for reagent mixtures. Was wondering whether there are many watches specifically designed for this industry/field.

Still a great video. For the last category we could also think about a Nomos, allowing to engrave a message in the case back
Being a uni student this is very cool
Love my Duro, it's been a daily for over 2yrs.
I'm VERY hard on watches, have NO scratches on the crystal. Although I bang mine almost daily on metal monos and shelving, and the mineral crystal is just fine.
A few scratches and a little ding on the aluminum insert, with minimal scratching on the case(not really noticeable).
I've spent more on straps then on the watch and Love it... Spends most of its time on a StrapCode 22mm Super-J Louis JUB Watch Band Straight End, 316L Stainless Steel Solid V-Clasp Button Double Lock.
My ONLY issue with this IS that Bill Gates wears one.
I've never had a Timex "that took a licking and kept on ticking"...
Not a SWATCH fan... do like some of the Company's that are part of the Group.
Wish the Citizen Chandler was a little bigger 39mm or 40mm.
Prefer the Tissot Gentleman over the PRX... the styling is timless, and has more versitility. It's a contender for a 1 watch collection.
The Oris Big Crown is on my list..
I just got a great Citizen Eco-Drive chronograph that looks better than some Rolex's....219 Australian dollars, it retails for 450
Honestly I'd prefer a invicta men's 34728 akula quartz 3 hand blue dial watch
The swatch looks awesome but ticks so loud it made me crazy
Casio with stop watch and countdownt timer for any technology students..
I would say vintage swatch irony models are classy and affordable
I have a real SUB but I also bought one of these replicas from amzwatch for piece of mind if I go to another country or if I am doing activities that can damage the watch. I don't see anything wrong with that.
I thought the SolarBeat was discontinued.
Video on thin watches please.
Still waiting for a decent jubilee bracelet option for the tissot gentleman if anyone knows of one?
Where the orient bambino
It would great if you could tell the watch you are wearing to finish each video, and why 😉
Great video, as always Teddy. But good luck, most only think an Apple watch is the ultimate in watchs
The words of wisdom on finances is not said enough in this immediate satisfaction world. Delayed pacification, if you will.
My dady bought one #nkuwan and he loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when he went out with it.
I don't think the solarbeat is available at retail, there aren't a lot produced I think
Hi Teddy, you missed couple of more in the affordable, college student, young graduate category, the Yema Classic YEAU 017 and their ladies Flygraf quartz YMHF1578AA-GM French Air & Space Force UTC Femme watch are two very good ones. Not sure why you haven’t covered much about Yema at all.
I bet many of the Tissot Gentlemen viewers are folks looking for a SARB 033/035 replacement.
The game and the watch will both last the same amount of time if you buy a single player game. Also, some games can become so highly collectable they're worth just as much as some watches.
I have a Tag Heuer Formula 1... still a student lol. :))

the "train tracks" on the oris at :39 secs looks uneven, is it the crystal or is it that bad?
near the 7 and around the 2 and 3
Is it just me or have the prices gone absolutely through the roof in these past year?

I just love that you mentioned the Tudor BB36. I fell in love with it when it released and I was still in high school. Now 5 years later and an engineering degree, I have finally made the purchase. The older version with the ETA movement and the beautiful blue dial. A watch for life.
Hey teddy !! Can you Please Review The Brand - Thomas Earnshaw and it’s Automatic watches . I only know that it started in 2011 in England and is owned by Darthmouth Brands Group of the UK .
Earnshaw is a British Watch Brand . It Manufactures Its Watches in England and Hong Kong and some Expensive Models in Switzerland. Overall their Watches are Very good and Look very Attractive at Affordable Prices.
How does a college student spend $1K on a watch? Even regular job holders will think 10 times before such an investment. And college students are broke.
The Rado Golden Horse, the Longines Conquest and the Oris BCPD are the stand outs in this group. 😊
Shout out to Teddy for the intro, helping ppl keep it “Reasonable”, my first piece above 1k (a Bvlgari) put me in a real bad position for a year after I had lost hours at work. I love the watch until this date but I’m not buying anything I can’t at least put half the purchase price down on. With all these fun brands sub 1K, you’ll never run out of options. Take your time with it 💪🏾
I have been deep into watches for almost 5 years now so, not very green. And I have 3 watches in my collection. And I love these watches, all three get a lot of wrist time and cover every aspect of my day to day life. So, I agree with Teddy when he says “it’s a marathon not a sprint”.
What are your 3
@@zacharyandrews1085 thanks for your interest. I have a Seiko solar tank (For formal occasions), a Casioak (beater/workout watch) and a Nomos club campus (daily/office wear)
When I passed the Bar I gifted myself with an Orient Bambino. I know it is not even close to an entry-level luxury watch but for a new professional like me I just couldn't justify spending anything close to a $1,000 for a wristwatch especially when something like Orient and a lot of other watch brands offer great quality watches for less money. I get the craftmanship and heritage behind more expensive watches but I guess it's just not my priority especially at a time when the economy is only favorable to an incredibly small percentage of the populatuon.
Great list Teddy. I'd also add the quartz version of the Tissot Gentleman as an alternative budget option and on the higher end something like a Nomos Club Campus would be a great choice too. I work at a University though and can say most students who are wearing watches that aren't smart watches tend to be G-shocks and Casios.
I am blessed to have a preteen son who has inherited my love of watches. He wears his black Casio LRW-200H with pride. Being able to read an analog dial and work a rotating bezel is a "cool skill" among middle schoolers!
You mean there's people whom can't read the time? Next you'll tell me they can't read cursive
