😊rx😮😮😢😮
Love the fact that you guys didn't rank based on the brand's popularity, but with each brand's strengths and weaknesses. It wasn't just surprising but also educational. Great job, guys! 🙌
Wait…you found this rant educational? Just kidding.
Hilarious! I love that you cut off the Rolex placement. I literally laughed out loud.
100% same!
Let's get this right - you did not 'actually' laugh out loud, but you did 'literally'? Wow, literally!
@@twowheels833 Weird comment, but okay
cool one yes ! but wtf why nomos is A
On my video, they ranked Rolex as a "D"! Perhaps you have a fault in your system?
Part 2 of this: Blancpain, Breguet, Vacheron, GO, Lange, FPJ, etc
Pretty major brands, surprised at their absence.
I'm glad Nomos get the recognition. They only have 1 design but they do it very well and in house.
the bit on ranking watches alphabetically was hilarious. Also - loved the video!
seiko quintessential is the turtle, (or maybe skx, it's more popular brother). turtle is perhaps the ultimate tool watch, cheap, great movement. fits on any wrist. it's different enough from a submariner and the submariners many clones, with a classic and unique case design. some interesting kanji and roman numeral date wheels, and color designs. turtle is an absolute S for me.
Agree 100%
100% agree. Huge Seiko fan here. Captain Willard and Alpinists are one of the most iconic watches, too.
the turtle looks more like a dive watch than any other dive watch
Hahaha that ending is perfect. Fade to black. ⌚
Great video !😂😂. I loved the Rolex bit.. but my own experience is they should be a D simply because you cannot buy one when you walk into an AD. I experienced that here in Singapore and when I was in Barcelona. I walked across to the Omega AD and got a wonderful Omega Speedy 57 for my son's wedding. For giving me the watch I chose, and with such variety and quality of design and build, Omega should be an easy A.
It depends on your purchase history. 2 of my indonesian friends gets rolex so easily from THG in singapore.
@picanha694 I have no doubt that if you bought several watches you were not intending to acquire from them first, you can then get a chance for a Rolex from THG, if you have a bottomless pit of money to draw from. However how do you explain such behavior from a Rolex only shop? What do you buy first to attain a purchase history with them? Anyway they shoot themselves in the foot, I've lost interest in Rolex.
@@hill1652which is the same as with A Lange & Sohne, AP, Patek and Omega with the snoopy. You can obviously buy other models that are aren’t so hot from all these brands.
So why the problem when Rolex do it…. That to me says it’s a you problem not a them problem 🤦♂️
This might be my favorite video, purely because of the personal insight for each brand. Great stuff
Great video. Interesting debate. I agree with - almost - all your choices, including the more controversial choices of Richard Mille (D), way too pricey/don't get it - I agree with you, and Tudor (C) I know lots of people love them but i find them dull/unoriginal - I agree with you. My only (subjective) dis-agreements and challenges are 1/ Nomos should be B, not A. Not enough of a diverse range to be above Longines...or Oris for that matter. Maybe Nomos at A is brand familiarity bias?! (i loved your video ad with them), 2/ Zenith at A. Should be B. Notwithstanding their movements, not enough of a diverse range to warrant being above AP that is truly iconic, and 3/ Casio should be B not A. They're now just dishing out variations on an existing theme (different colour, etc) rather than anything game-changing. You could argue Grand Seiko have been more innovative in 2022. Lastly - real shame to miss out Vacheron Constantin in particular given the Overseas (and 222). Would have been interested to learn your perspectives on Breguet, Cartier, Panerai, and Piaget too. Look forward to Pt2 given the cliff-hanger ending 🙂
The best part of this video was Mikey trying to keep a straight face wearing that helmet in the ad 😂
Young christian is all the good in the watch world.
And MIKEY IS EVERYTHING BAAAAD!
Oh I can’t even say it! I love Michael too! 😂💕
Really? Christian the egomaniac (fun to watch you are!) vs the humble Michael? 😅
@@ulifluhme LOL! Oooooh they are perfect together! 💕 I think they are best as a double act!
@@BrittPearceWatches they are hilarious. Funniest for a middle aged guy like me when they talk about things "a loooong time ago" and it's usually 2-3 years ago, 5 at most.
I think a list like this is most interesting when it is purely subjective, meaning ranking the brand only based on your personal preference (would you buy it) and disregarding anything about the market or other people's thoughts.
Sirs, missing too many brands in this list. Vacheron, Alange and Sohne, Glashutte Original ect
So we've come to the point where them "professional" YoTuhhbErs are shitposting?
I love Rado. Irrational? Idk. I saw an original diver in a store window and became fixated. I have many other watches (of all different price points) but the Rados get my love. And other Rado fans (James May, are you reading this?) totally get it.
A warning that watching this video will make you dumber should've been posted.
Well done with RM. It’s time to see and admit the Emperor has no clothes.
and fat
No Breguet, No Journe, no Lange?
Here’s some positivity for you amidst the hellfire known as the TH-cam commentd. You’re both some of the best that the watch industry has to offer. If you two ever split up, it will a sad day.
*** Remembers he is on the waiting for a Royal Oak***
-"I'm gonna go for A"
Truth! Hah
ALS is the only S tier brand and they’re off the list !
I don’t understand how Tudor which is dead solid for the money is at the same level as AP, which is vastly overpriced and fragile for what you are paying.
people wearing AP are not in a fragile and hostile environment. whereas lives of tudor enthusiasts is always at stake.
Where were Breguet and VC?
they both S. didnt you see them removing the S category?
That iRestore looks like a short bus helmet. I was waiting on Michael to start licking the window😂.
Ending haha. Come on though. Where’s Vacheron, Cartier and Pagani Design?!
No way zenith and nomos are above Omega and Gand seiko just no way 🤣
GS catalogue is ugly. if they didnt have the spring drive nobody would even look at their fugly shite.
omega is ugly too. same moments and bracelets for every size makes most of omegas ugly and squint.
try noticing the subdials. they are always clamped to the centre or lingering right beside the bezel. same bracelet size for 38, 39, 40 and 42mm. omega is lol
except 321 no speedmaster is actually made for its movement.
Sorry guys, but when I see your lack of appreciation for Seiko, I'm floored. You praise all these other brands that are boring and look like every other brand, and then overlook Seiko which has some of the best looking dials. Hell, the negroni or one of the iconic dive watches that REAL divers buy such as the turtle and samurai should have elevated this list.
@@doperdr not at all…. Just amazed when I see Swiss Aficionados almost completely disregard Japanese brands when they make such amazing watches. People will praise an IWC pilot watch (yawn) while completely ignoring other very interesting brands/designs.
@@doperdr tons of Citizen models, Seiko flightmaster, Orient has a couple.
i love how random the intros are ahah
ur welcome
“You are what you do”. On the bottom of all your videos, your banner names three brands out of the many you sell: Rolex, Omega and Tudor. Those three occupy that “downtown Tokyo real estate”. Those are in your “A” list at least by insinuation. Asides: all Nomos watches look alike. They remind me of Bachman-Turner Overdrive music - same four chords, brand new song. Grand Seiko will always be dragged down by having your “D” tier Seiko on the dial. Unfair perhaps, but Seiko made the choice to do that. Plus, they further commingle by putting spring drive movements in high end Seiko watches…? Love the fade to black at the end!
Navitimer 41 has to be worth alone a B for Breitling given the aesthetics, the movement and the price, beside they have in catalogue one of the most accurate quartz in luxury watch brands with the Endurance pro, that's a bit pricey to be a quartz and it's definitely out there with the design, but it has a superquartz movement with +/-0.07 secs per day
Christians method of rating made a lot more sense than Michaels. It shouldn’t be whether you like them or not, but how interesting and innovative a brand is and their quality.
Love the Sopranos reference at the end. Keep ‘em guessing.
The irony of a guy who says the Rolex DJ is their favorite watch calling any other watch “boring”. 🤦🏻
great video but i wish you didn't get rid of the S tier!! imo that's for like "this is my favorite and it may be a semi-irrational choice but i love it." then you could have put your A tier stuff in S and broken up the B tier more. also just a suggestion but it would be great if y'all do a tier list video again to have both of you do your own separate tier lists and talk through your choices since you have differing opinions. plus that's a super easy way to be like "who's tier list is better? let us know in the comments" and get that audience engagement lol
More watch brands (Cartier, Glashütte Original, A. Lange und Söhne...) and less talking would have been good. But though a good ranking in my oppinion. :)
Stirling Timepieces and Sangin Instruments are S tier and I'll sissy slap anyone who says otherwise
I can see your guys' points for some except for Seiko, I just got my new SSK003 Diver and it's an automatic GMT Diver that competes with Rolex Sub or even the GMT for less than 500€ - It's incredible
Totally agree with your comments. What about Breguet?
Breguet is most definitely "A" They probably didn't have Breguet on this vid because it goes without saying.
Sorry but I don't think you are open to new things like Seiko since you say "sport watches, sport watches" so you go in biased.
Get over it fanboy, its just an opinion ranking
@@pilotstyle123 Not a fanboy and not talking to you retard.
I always like listening to your perspective on brands. with that being said, I think Swatch could have been a good addition to this list.
As always guys, great video. Even though I disagree on some accounts. But Christian, handle the Seiko spb 143 and see how you feel about Seiko….. for the money it can’t be beat. And the Rolex ending was gold. Suspecting that’s Michaels suggestion. Keep on making great videos. It’s all about your dynamic.
It’s nice but it’s a blatant Rolex rip without much of its own design language, as are most of Seiko’s hits.
I absolutely loved the ending, you bastards! 🤣🤣🤣
"alphabetical order". had me rolling on the floor too. LOL
Michael I will keep commenting till you know there is a lug thickness difference in the 2018 vs 2021 zenith chormomaster Original
Evan I see you! You may have changed my life!
Haha , I had to repeat the video again. I love the insights and respect your opinions . That being said, I truly believe that when it comes to avalibilty, design , quality, heritage, and initial cost, OMEGA is always on top .
I’m with you. IWC isn’t for me either, but a 38.5mm Habring2 that’s 10mm thick is definitely for me.
Christian taking wardrobe cues from Bert & Ernie?
Is Christian secretly giving someone the finger @ 2:33 lol
I struggle with these “brand comparison” videos…too many “apples and oranges” comparisons to make it useful to watch fans. For example, Breitling caters to sport watches for guys with big wrists. Cartier great for small wrists who want dress watches. Budgets also drive watch interests. If I am under $5k, Oris/Seiko are great options. For someone with a budget of $50k for a watch, Oris/Seiko wouldn’t realistically be a consideration in most cases. Some are into vintage while others want watches made in last 10 years. Try making a series of videos where you wear different hats and then rank based on different criteria. Those would be videos I would love to see.
I watch Theo and Harris for the Christian content tbh. He gets a lot of hate, but he has great takes, and knows his way around a good drink and a good watch. My kind of guy.
Patek with Casio and nomos 🤣🤣🤣
Rolex has to be E.
for creating fake scarcity, uninspired designs, ugly case backs and just marketing
Christian looks like the colorado flag
Were you guys purposely going for The Sopranos ending ? 😂
I think the 'Directed by David Chase' at the end answers that question lol.
Lmao that John Mayer part was a classic. Christian had to go change out his pants lol
Where is Vacheron Constantin? Lol, maybe it was after Rolex... Great Video! I love the connection you have between each other and the watches.
Hilarious. You pulled a Soprano moment on us.
Tudor and seiko in C...................guess we just all poor =(
1:50 he doesn’t read the comments
Based on this video you guys don't know how to use tier lists. S-tier is not "beyond all expectations". It's more like "elite" or "best of the best"
I totally disagree with you on Rolex!! They obviously deserve a spot in .....
I haave a big wrist so Nomos seemed out of reach cuz they make small cases. Then I saw the Club Sport Neomatik in 42mm. Beautiful watch. Im seriously considering the purchase.
Hey guys, I love your content, and I always support and promote your channel. You have helped shape my views and tastes around watches, and I greatly appreciate you. However, I have several bones to pick with this video. So, please take or leave my comments as you see fit. 1. There are a lot of watch tier list videos, but as far as I know, none rank these brands and their products from a vintage perspective. Since you are specialists in this area, I think this would be the most exciting and valuable tier list you could make. Would you consider making another video where you would rank the brands from a vintage perspective? I would love to see that. 2. There are soooo many good brands left off this list! Cartier, Vacheron, A. Lange & Söhne, and all the great independent watch brands? For Cartier alone, I could rattle off a list of reasons why they should be on the list: Cartier outperformed many other watch brands last year, they arguably made the first sports watch and pilot's watch ever, numerous prominent figures wear their watches, they are Christian's favorite watch brand. So, could you add more brands for the second part of this video? Keep up the good work guys. Love your videos.
Nomos a tier? cmon
Enough about watches. Let’s hear more about the magic hair-making hat.
Where is Citizen?
soprano ending .. love it
I love how Vacheron Constantin is out of the list. They don't deserve this kind of parody. ;)
A LANGE AND SOHNE????
Agree with the list completely apart Hublot definitely is a D. For the watch you get for the price irs not there. There for footballers and celebs like that
Also rolex front of b yes there great watches but this wait list bs is well that bs.
That was brilliant 🍻
Hahaha nice one! Loved the end. It would be nice to see what you guys think of A. Lange & Söhne
..and Blancpain
2xA, C and a D. My collection is ballanced.
Now that I know you’re checking all the comments….. need opinions on the black vs grey Cartier Santos. Getting the steel
Bracelet with the grey may seal the deal, but appreciate your take. Thanks boys
Great show, great ending and great chemistry guys!
I can vouch for iRestore. I only use the helmet, but 6 months in, lve seen a difference. It's a frustrating journey, but patience is paying off so far
Don’t stop believin’
Wow! I would not have known! Both Theo's and Harris's hair look totally natural!
Don't read all the comments, very unhealthy. You guys are doing amazing and the growth in views and the level of quality says everything.
Perfect ending! Swap Casio and Moser and your list is acceptable.
Part 2 should include brands like Breguet, Swatch, Blancpain, Tissot, and leave Rolex to the "end"
You guys on crack, AP is B and Tudor is C while Nomos is A! Give me some of that good stuff 😂. I also dont see Zenith A and i would swap Zenith with Omega for sure.
Which website did you use for the ranking template? Great video as always!
Any reason why Cartier wasn't included?
Years later and the 11.59 is still horrendous
What was the sweater you were wearing michael?
Audio went in and out for me. Was it just me? 10/10 video though.
Michael will come around to Moser. Ranking them that low is more about lack of experience with watches (not a negative comment). After being into larger brands, Zenith included, along with the normal few Rolex, etc. Most consistent collectors over the decades start to appreciate watches like the Mosers, Bovets, and other random niche brands more. There's no empirical proof of this, but my guess is that most people that like hype brands have been in the hobby for less than 20 years.
You bust Tag down for only doing reissue. then big up the Casio calculator which is a re-edition? Nomos is clearly a winner - and also a client? 😂😂 Love the channel, regardless.
You can place brands to the left and right of a tier too. So say you think Tag is better than Richard, it goes to the left of the Richard, etc. you get really complex and more detailed tier lists
what do you think about glashuette original ?
A bit upset Omega wasn’t in the A category but hey, I use what you two say as the Bible. If you tell me the sky is green, I’ll be knocking on door to door to convince the rest of the world that the sky is green as well.
The Rolex fanboys waited and waited and NADA 😂😂😂
Where the absolute fuck is cartier?
The Rolex Sopranos ending 😂🤣
I agree with Michael about Moser. I feel that their designs get a pass because of all of the hype that they received. If you saw the same design in another, cheaper, watch brand, it would not get the same pass that Moser gets. Just my opinion obviously.
And both you guys get a big fat F for not including Cartier
Calling seiko boring is not knowing your watches...
