This is really 5 ways to maintain and look after your luxury watch. But that sounds boring, so I packaged it as 5 ways to break your luxury wristwatch.
Questions I answer are:
- Can I break my watch by dropping it?
- Will magnets damage my watch movement? - will airport security damage my watch?
- Can I swim with my watch / what does water resistant mean?
- How to safely change the date on my watch? Is it dangerous to change the date on my watch?
- Can I overwind my watch?
The Omega Railmaster is the best when it comes to dealing with magnetic fields, better than the Rolex Milgauss.
I also talk about the idea of wanting to make eye-catching content for Instagram and how this can lead you to taking risky watch shots. It's better the stick to wrist shots.
By the way, your Rolex Submariner is only 300m water resistant with withe crown screwed in. Even with the triple lock seal.
Let me know if I've missed any points out.

You missed that
@@humblewiz4953 ooh! Good pickup!
Dropping is definitely a no no as far as magnetism I don’t see this as a problem unless you work at a hospital around MRI machines. Normal magnets or computers aren’t much risk I have never magnetized any of my watches over the last 10 or so years I have been collecting. For over winding most modern watches do not allow this as they have a stop to over wind but for vintage it could be a problem. For water damage over 100m and your good unless your scuba Steve

Was surfing with my daughter and pushing her into waves. She caught a wave and as she sped away, her leash caught perfectly on my Omega Planet Ocean and snapped it off my wrist. Three hours later of diving to the bottom over and over again to look for it, I finally had to give up. Still pains me to think of it. I loved that watch!
Ouch! You gave it a good go trying to find it though.
Ouch
Ouch
Ouchy. Someone will find that one day and have a nice surprise
The finder will need a lot of PolyWatch.
Ever had that heart-stopping moment when you accidentally bash it off a door handle? 😫
Rory Forrest
Done that and it made me swear out loud in front of my students.
Now imagine that with an Omega speedmaster. That plexi is getting GAUGED
Yep it’s happened to me.... ghastly!, the thought of it makes me freeze
Mate try being a wheelchair user for a day, doorframes have become my worst enemy. Constantly dinging my watch against them. 😂
Never happens unless I’m wearing one of my best watches!
Spilling coffee on it 🤪
Haha. I should have mentioned that!!!
Especially on a £400k turbillon.... 😨😓👍⌚
Thought about that immediately 😅😉
Had to be the inspiration for this video.
I think a good rule to go with is just don't take your watch off in random places (public restrooms, at a friends place, basically anywhere that isn't beside your bed or to put in a safe). You can't lose your watch if it is simply on your wrist (the chances are really low for it to randomly pop off). Yeah someone could point a gun at you and take it but that's an entirely different discussion. Point of the matter is, you can't lose the watch if it's on your wrist like Adrian said. My mother told me this when she gifted me with my first rolex (submariner) when I graduated college. I've been wearing it for almost 5 years straight. Yeah it's scratched up but it's still on my wrist today.
“When she postponed a bollocking” 😂😂😂. Love it.
I totally heard "barking".... guess I need to bone up on my British English lol
I would like to add : do not take a shower with your watch, regardless of its water resistance. Soap and shampoo break the surface tension of the water, so it becomes much more capable of seeping into the smallests of openings. A seal capable of stopping pure water may fail on soapy water. Soap will deteriorate the silicone grease that has been applied to the seals.
As Forrest would say,” stupid is as stupid does!”
I miss your content man, was waiting for a new vid; got it :)
Thanks buddy. This was supposed to be a simple video that would go out on Saturday. It ended up being a bigger project than I thought. 🤦🏼♂️
@@BarkandJack Your hairs are speaking your experience 🤣
Just a note for anyone considering a railmaster based on antimagnetism. All Omega Master chronometers can withstand up to 15000 Gauss. The railmaster was a tool watch built for antimagnetism back in 1957. But all modern omegas boast that spec.
Good call. More than what anyone needs. I don’t even consider magnetising my watches as it’s not something I casually run into
that Grand Seiko gets me every time ❤
Love the idea for the content and you have really started editing them very well. You have an archive of footage and it’s great to see it all coming together. Keep it up (the good work on the channel, not putting your watches in the ocean. Can’t believe you did it for a second time...)
The railmaster is most heavily advertised as being anti-magnetic because of its heritage. But actually any Omega calibre 8400 & 8500 are equally anti-magnetic. That includes watches in the Aqua terra and Seamaster range of products.
even the 8800 and 8900 movements are equally anti magnetic...so good point
Thanks for such a lighthearted video. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Just ordered myself a a watch pouch.
You missed out Mugnetism, its when you get unwanted attention for your watch...
Haha. I like that.
That's a very strong attraction. The mugnetic force is enough to sweep your watch away from your wrist.
Excellent video man👌
6.30 date changing is what I learned, with Winding I tend to give the crown 10 turns, may not give full power but safe enough.
Ahah, I never understood that "Let's pour coffee on my watch and record it to put it on instagram !" ! Great and fun vid, thanks!
Fantastic video Adrian ! With a lot of personal details as we like it ... Perfect I had a lot of pleasure and a lot of fun by watching it. It’s been a long time for me because of my job and also lockdown activities, but I’m really happy to enjoy again watching such contents ! See you soon on TH-cam !
Oh dear, glad you found it, good video as always, thanks
Great advice. Still getting used to my seiko 5 sports 55 phantoms loving it but i do follow the time setting guidelines you pointed out. Just taking sometime getting used to it as other watch is a citizen eco drive and does not need wound
Oi - that story at the end raised my heartbeat, lol (and good of your wife too). As a certified watch nerd, I knew most of these things already, though not to the extent you mention. I knew it's not cool to set the date between those times, but I did not know that 6:30 was the safest time to do so. And also even though I'm aware of magnetism, I was not super conscious about common household appliances. I will not, of course put my 1940s vintage Omega on my HiFi Speakers. PS - really contemplating a 14270 (or a vintage black dial DJ)... It's tricky to find the Exp with lug holes. I can't find any currently. Thanks, mate.
Your story about the Kermit just sank my heart….holy smokes, what a close call!! Glad the English Channel was kind to you and returned it!! Saludos from San Antonio!!
Useful information thanks.
Loved the story at the end and my heart sunk as you said the watch disappeared. It’s funny as I know you have the watch and haven’t lost it to the sea but it still sunk.
fantastic story. you really are the best at what you do........
Date Change tip is Golden. I've heard this from my jeweler. Thank you.
Great advice on changing the date on a Rolex.
Love the editing of this video Adrian. Well done
Thanks Louis. 🙌🏻
Great video and excellent content as always..
I think it's how hard you hit the end of your manual wind watch. With my Speedy, I wind it every other day and wind it till it reaches the end of its wind as recommended by Omega. I can feel when it's reaching that point (and also count the winds) and slow down and approach the end with care till I gently nudge the end of the winding action.
Great vid mate!
Very humbling video everyone should see 😊
This is your best lighting setup yet, the white light is a much cleaner look than the orange and teal you went for for a little while, I like iy
Really enjoyed this video, had to sub! Keep it up 👍
Nice video as always and I think the most common big neglect stupid mistake is not to service the watch when it should be.
I wore my (previous) Explorer II whilst swimming when swimming off a beach in Hope Bay, Jamaica, and regularly whilst having saunas. I've been in saunas with my current Explorer I. No issues at all in any of those situations.
Loved the video buddy ... keep it coming 🥂
This was extremely helpful, thanks. Just getting caught up on your videos. Cheers
I once dropped my Daytona face down on a ceramic floor from about four feet.......my heart stopped, but luckily no damage done.
I absolutely LOVE the last two shots of your Explorer!
Ouch 😱
Thanks Adrian 👍
Overall good video on do's and dont's. I guess a new don't for me is not to put a nato strap on a P01. The hybrid strap is purposefully built. Just not a fan of brown suede. Looks like i will have to put it back
Great vid fella 👍🏻
Shock destroyed one of my autos (cheap, though) - riding a motorcycle across australia. But live and learn...I do think about shock when looking at things like applied versus printed indices and logos, as well as the movement.
I have had to deal with watches i thought were magnetized and iam away awear of magnetism, but this video has made me wonder whether lights or in my case one of those ones you just touch to turn on can affect your watch?
Another GREAT video Adrian! Info is practical and appreciate you being vulnerable enough to re-tell your "don't be stupid" story. You had me on the edge of my seat wondering what happens next! And it definitely sounds like your wife is a keeper for sure hahaha. Look forward to your next vid! Stay safe and well!
I totally connect with the wave shot story. It's kinda my thing to 'baptize' my new dive watches with a wave shot and yep they've been sucked into the sea plenty of times. I've retrieved them all though and don't seem to learn. Maybe I'm just doubly stupid. 🤣
Omg, I hadn't heard that story. Amazing!
Great video, yet again
Had fun with one of my watches I wore in the sea I didn't realise the the pins had rusted until I tried to change the strap so I always make sure I give it a good clean with fresh water after using it in the sea
thanks for the video. I had a good laugh (at your expense:) ). your wife is a brilliant person, first, to agree on an "expensive" watch collection (let's be honest, it can be a challenge, right?), second, to help you in a panic moment. Kudos Madame. I have seen tons of watch videos, and I can tell you I appreciate the quality and the tone you put in. Keep up the good work, Bravo!
Bloody hell Adrian you were brave to try the shot for a second time!. Great video 👍
Enjoyed sitting in a jacuzzi with my Omega 300SMP. Didn’t check the helium escape valve 🤦♂️. Long story short: $1200 and 6 months later Omega was able to fix my electric ⚡️ blue lovely and I literally got a brave new watch. I tighten my crowns etc weekly now and more.
Wow, that’s a great story so glad you found it. 🇬🇧
Date changing is not talked about enough I agree. Southern hemisphere hands is a must before changing date
Thinking about getting the Tudor gmt
This episode wins the vaunted subscribe from me! I my self have done a thing or two that would qualify as stupid where my watches are concerned!
Thanks so much mate. And glad I’m not the only one!
I love how you looked over your shoulder and started whispering when complaining about your wife 🤣🤣🤣
Sean Forlenza he lowered his voice too hhhh
Don't we all do this 🤐👍
i said biitch
Love that story about the Kermit! My heart was in my mouth the whole time! Nice to know I’m not alone in being a pillock occasionally :D
Bark and Jack: Don't drop your watch
G-shock: Hold my beer.
Boy oh boy, that Oris Cal 115 movement is beautiful!
Great story!
Watching this while wearing a 35 years Steel Square G. Feeling quite at ease... that being said... my Oris Flight Master is in the shop for a checkup after it started gaining over 1 min per day.
Where was this video 30 years ago 😂...I would add if you have a vintage watch, it doesn't matter what the depth rating is - keep it out of the water 😳(It took me a couple of times to learn that lesson😔) This is fantastic Adrian - informative and entertaining as always 😊👍
Hahhahah, best title ever. Great job Adrian, love the video!
Thanks mate. 🙌🏻
I bought a new band for my watch. Was a nato single pass style strap but it was much thinner than the previous strap. When i took the watch off that evening, it slipped off the strap due to how thin it was. I fumbled to grab the watch but missed. The watch fell and smashed into the floor. Luckily no damage due to having a wooden floor tile type. Now i am more careful
Good stuff! 👍🏻
Hi, I want to start a watch collection. Always love watches but never got the chance to start but I do now. I've seen a few I like but want some advice on where to start if you can
The foto of your explorer in the water still is one of your best though. Nice video. Cheers
I managed to magnetize my watch some weeks ago, it went from +2s/day to +7. A bit annoying. If I have the tool demagnetised, will it return to its former glory, or not quite?
Quick tip for taking shots like that rolex shot. Fishing line attached to your leg and to the watch. Really easy to cut it out in post, (if you need to do that at all) and safe.
Great video. Just a silly question. Is there any issue if I change the date at 10 p.m., for instance, using the quick mode but the watch just stopped naturally in that time? or should I change the hour manualy until surpass 3 a.m., and then apply the quick change? Sorry if I can not express the idea clearly, I´m not english speaker. Thank you!
Poster frame is absolutely killer. Totally worth it 💪🏽
Love the glance at 8:43 ;-) Great story and content as always. That Kermit was meant to be with you for good so hang onto it!
What a story though. Wasn’t meant to be lost that day 😁
So a question that I don’t know the answer to. When flying, should I take of my Omega Seamaster 300 and have scanned, or wear it through the body scanner?
4:05 the change in volume and tone is brilliant. you poor beat up husband, you ;P
Haha.
Even though this appeared a year late in my feed, it's great advice! I always use my G-Shock GG-1000-1A3DR when trekking and mountaineering and a cheaper Seiko diving. My good watches I keep safe. Did have one scare, we were checking out furniture and a slightly bent spring bar (I had meant to change it) on my Seamaster popped off and fell behind the cushion of a couch. Only noticed it was missing later. We were still in the store, and blessings on my daughter, she went straight to the couch and there it was!! Phewwwww!! She got a well deserved new laptop that Christmas!!
Great video, My only advise is that you can tide fishing wire on the bracelet and your ankle and then all the pictures you like safely!!! I'm glad you found it.!
nice video, what about winders?
I love Casio! I put my Casio A168 watch in my dishwasher once a week and it works great years later. It only says water resistant lol
Love the g-shock thrown over the shoulder
Love the Casio! Amazing value, require very minimal service.
Rubbish, I was ready to go to Eastbourne with my son’s metal detector at low tide, then you said you found it. 😡😂
Lol!. I was thinking about going to Pagham beach with mine... until he found it😡🤣
I'm thinking about sending my submariner to service as the accuracy is a bit off. Can you recommend any watchmaker that you trust besides the AD?
I might arrive late, but quick tip for you form a fan of the channel. If you're taking shots with the watch off your wrist and there's water around, you should probably tie some fishing line to it and make sure you or someone is holding it or it is secured to something around. That way you can even take underwater photos of the watch crating the ilusion of it floating midwater.
Good video! It's bad that the information about the date change is not more carefully spread from dealers.
Probably many owners of automatic watches are not aware of it.
But why should I adjust the date at 06:30? I use to do it at 06:00. Does it really matter?
always different... i love the way storrytelling..
G force deceleration. One of the reasons we wear watches on our left wrist is stop you picking up a hammer and driving a nail into a wall
with your watch arm. Being ambidextrous I once fell foul of this.
Cost me big time.
My heart stopped when you said you lost your kermit. 😢
I actually put my hand on my forehead!
Brilliant as always..... can you tell us all where you’re planning on photographing your watches.... so we can follow on after you with a metal detector!!!
Your videos are 😂 too funny and you continue to surprise me. “.... give your authorized dealer a call... 😆 “ hilarious 🤣
What model/ref VC is that at 3:00? Looks beautiful...
You make really cool videos !
To me the Seiko Turtles fit best into water. Especially the Save The Ocean versions. 🌊 🐟 🦈
Hey I hope you could help me with this one, I just inherited a Rolex Daytona and I don’t know whether its fake or not. It is rather old (my dad inherited it first 12yrs ago). I‘ve already seen your video on 10 things to look out for when spotting a fake but I still don’t know. It has a red and black dial and i can’t seem to find one like that online. Do you maybe have any other tips that could help me find out? Greeting from Germany and keep up the good work!
I’ve heard you and others speak about the “quartz crisis”. I’ve never heard anyone talk about how manual/automatic watches survived and what pulled them from the abyss. Can you address this?
Thanks
Hey . Archie luxury was talking about you In his last video . You are a star now ! Lol
What do you think of the Rolex watch r6694 black dial 1972 without diamonds. I personally have a friend of mine that has one and he loves the hell out of it.⌚️
Hey @Bark and Jack! I really wanted to read that ex-military article "This Humble G-Shock. " but it's not available anymore. :(
So close to 100k!
🙌🏻
Adrian, how do you know when your hair is ‘just right’ to start filming? Only kidding, some great content this year, I hope your channel continues in the same vein in 2022. Happy New Year!😁
