Once I saw Undone as the sponsor I clicked the like button. More people should promote such quality stuff like you.

So at about 7:34 you hold up two watches and say the watch in your right hand is better than the Invicta in your left. Step 7 What is the watch in your right hand that is cheaper but better than the Invicta?

I really wanna see your whole watch collection

Generally good advise, especially to make up your own mind what is a good watch for you. I have seen this many times, where the online watch community crowns a certain watch as the one to own, while other watches fly under the radar. That is where the good deals are, is the ones flying under the radar.


I would add a few things.


Do your research. Know the difference between a dress watch, an all rounder, and the various types of sport watches. I know this is maybe a bit nitpicky, but in your video, the image you used as an example of a dress watch was of the Rolex Datejust, which is not a dress watch. Rather, it is historically a sport watch, but now more of an all rounder, especially when paired with the polished Jubilee bracelet. A true dress watch is small, thin, simple three handed design, and usually made of precious metal. Not many people wear a true dress watch as a daily wearer.


After you do your research, and learn of the types of watches, and the various iconic designs such as the Rolex Datejust, Submariner, Cartier Tank, JLC Reverso, Omega Speedmaster, etc...you are in a position to start looking for a watch that speaks to you, both in functionality, formality, and personality.


Most people buy watches to wear them, so keep that in mind. You wouldn't wear a pair of trainers with a dark suit. Or chunky boots. And you wouldn't wear a novelty tie for a serious meeting or job interview. Just as you wouldn't wear black oxfords with some faded jeans and a sweatshirt. Keep all that in mind when considering your watch purchase. I know some guys where giant sports watches with a suit, and some make it work. But most don't


Finally, there is the part where some might call me a snob, but there are watches you should never buy for any reason, including fakes, but also fashion brands, some of which unfortunately have been sponsors here before. It isn't that they won't tell time. They will. But they are a poor value for the money.

I recently went on a watch buying quest. I tend to get interested in a specific item or topic, I learn a great deal of knowledge about said topic, then buy a whole bunch of items in said topic until I find the perfect one for me. Recently that topic was watches, and thank God it didn’t take me long to find the perfect one.

I started with a G-Shock Becca I wanted something indestructible for Basic Military Training. However, I soon learned that there was a thing called pilot watches, and being that I aspire to become a pilot, I had to have one.

I had a hard time finding a pilot watch I liked. I didn’t want a dial that was too busy, but I also wanted the dial to look like an aircraft instrument so anyone that looks at my watch might get the impression I’m a pilot. (I’m not one yet, but emulate what you want to be you know?) I actually found my perfect pilot watch, and it was actually pictured in this video at 2:08 but there was just one problem, the cheapest I found it going for was $6, 000. So I had to keep looking for other watches.

I got lucky one day and EBAY sent me an email saying they put together a list of items I might be interested in. Now I usually delete these emails, but for whatever reason I gave it a look and lo and behold there was another aviator watch that checked all the boxes for me and it was brand new in the box still. It was in an EBAY auction but I ended up winning it for about $170. Now a mistake I made was that I didn’t check out how much it was worth brand new from the company before I paid $170 for it. However my luck still hasn’t run out because when I looked at the price the company was selling it for it was $370! What a steal! I have had the watch for a couple months now and I absolutely love it!

Also I would like to add that this watch isn’t made by any big named brand. It’s by a company called Marc and Sons, who I never even heard of prior to finding this watch. I was skeptical at first, but after owning this watch I can definitely say it’s of high quality! (Or at least high enough for me anyway) So anyone out there looking for your perfect watch, take some time to learn a little bit about watches, figure out what you like and want, and then search for it everywhere. You never know where it may pop up.

Casio F91W and a Rolex Yacht Master in the same collection. Antonio’s a watch lover if I ever saw one.

New logo looks nice. I'm not entirely sure about the backwards letters, but the overall aesthetic fits.

[ravipeiris]

Antonio, spot on about "wearing the watch you want to wear".

[silverman]

I love my Seiko 5 watch (my dad and mom loved Seiko watches so I was drawn to it) and Orient Bambino dress watch... That's enough for me!

[ShuckersFan]

What is the watch you are comparing to the Invicta and Submariner?

[nickporter]

Great video Antonio! I've also recently gotten into watches and these are some great tips. Buy what YOU want and what works for YOU is absolutely important. One tip I'd add is try limiting your purchases to one watch per month; it forces you to stop and think about the watch long enough to ensure that it's what you really want.

[chuyimuyi]

I bought a watch of $16.6 and using it for 3years now!!
It's a tough watch and it suits me 😎
Watch selection totally depends upon the comfort after wearing it.

[mwfscarbo]

Great to see a new watch brand on your channel, Antonio! These look like beautuful timepieces.

[TeenageDays]

Tip - Before buying a watch don't forget to check out RMRS

[kouadiorotchoho]

Antonio, without your video I don't know how should level up my style. Thank you so much

[compositesquare]

I like your thinking.... a nice watch will make you feel like Smeagol from the movie Lord of the Rings. "Me Precious Watch." "But yet I live in a cave with no furniture."👍😂🤗
