My 2021 Watch Collection: Seiko, Omega, Rolex, AP, Casio, Tudor & More

As we approach the end of the year, the good Gentry knows what that means—it's time for my annual State of the Collection!

In this video, we'll take a look at how my #watchcollection has changed since the last #SOTC from 2020. Which watches are my new keepers? What have I sold, traded in, or upgraded? How have my watch wearing habits changed since last year? How many #strapmonster and #tooltastic pieces remain in my collection? Join me for another classic Gentry episode and please share your current SOTC in the comments!

These collection reviews are becoming a part of my Christmas tradition, and I’m okay with that.

[DrDan-uede]

Happy New, TGV…I consider you an old pal who’s always there for me…

“I find your lack of SKX disturbing”, Darth Vader would say. 😂 😂😂
A really nice and very inspiring collection.

[GuyVanderAa]

These SOTC should be a Christmas tradition for everyone to watch. They are just magnificent.
Impeccable taste for your collection sir.
Very very nice 👌

What an incredible collection full of personal stories and experiences. Keep up the amazing work and story telling. Happy holidays and New Year!

Hello TGV, i’m jealous of your collection. Not because of the quantity, but all stories it has behind every piece. Thank you so much for sharing. Merry Christmas to you!

[mitchaelhollingsworth]

thanks for introducing me to brands like fortis, yema and squale and many others. when getting into watches i had no frame of reference for any brands. this channel helped me fill out a lot of that knowledge. and i'm really glad to learn about these wonderful storied brands because they have some amazing designs, legitimate pedigree and do not get their due credit. that has been one gift of the channel, learning it's okay not to have an skx or a submariner and all the watches you're "supposed" to have because there are a lot of alternatives. another gift of the channel for me has been the equal appreciation and enjoyment of a 30 dollar casio to a watch that costs a hundred times more. this really is an admirable anti snob attitude and keeps the channel relatable. it keeps me from going too far down the wristwatch rabbit hole when i am looking at a watch i really can't afford.

I always admire your collection of tree ornaments, TGV. And your watch collection is top notch and pure class as always. Lots of positive changes this year too. Keep up the great work and have a Merry Christmas! Can't wait to see what 2022 brings.

TGV, you were my first. When I first was getting into the hobby four years ago, my son Marshal told me if I was going to be getting into watches I should watch your channel and it's been a fantastic journey ever since. Your love of Seiko and Casio was contagious. When my son graduated from ASU I bought him a Seiko SARB017 Alpinist. He was going to Japan to work and he loved the watch. He sent me a picture of him and a friend mountain climbing in Japan wearing his Alpinist... WOW! Thank you for EVREYTHING. You have educated me on so many levels. Not just about watches, but after seeing your journey through your surgeries you reminded me to love life and never take what I have for granted. I hope you have an extraordinary and Very Merry Christmas and a fabulous and Very Happy New Year my friend!

Thanks so much, TGV. Our straps are proud to play a supporting role in your amazing collection. Happy holidays! Mike

[christopherhughes]

As always, your relentless positivity warms my heart TGV. After all the negativity and animosity this year has been filled with it’s such a pleasure to see that you never fall to that. Every episode you put out is filled with happiness and joy. Thank you so much for being yourself, Happy Holidays TGV and a wonderful New Year!

Your collection is one of the best out there. The fact that you can go from loving and talking about your luxury watches to giving praise to a $20-50 dollar watch that you give so much praise to and actually get into the modding side of things really shows just how much you truely appreciate horology as a whole. Cheers brother, happy holidays and happy new years to you and your family.

[WookieChewie]

Truly the original watch YouTuber, the OG, Christmas aint complete without the traditional TGV watch collection update! Pure class.

Know your history, TGV OG.

Always a treat seeing the end of year state of the collection, great choices and straps 👍

[paulb]

Possibly the best collection of all collectors I've seen so far, mainly because of the diversity with great additions like Accutron, and Rolex's with cool straps, how refreshing, thanks for being different

[paulbasileo]

Impeccable collection for a man with impeccable taste in all things! Merry Christmas and a healthy and happy new year!

[Dhm]

Can’t wait to watch this! Merry Christmas and thank you for all the content you provide to us.

[zoso]

So soothing and brings that warm cozy holiday vibe. I’ve been a part of the UGWC for around 3 years and these “States of the Collection” have become something I look forward to annually, sort of a nostalgic feeling that never disappoints.

Much love, TGV

Ok, Ciao!

Another good video. After watching this channel for 2 years, I have learned so much about watches. The best thing is that I finally purchased my Grail Watch at the beginning of this year. I would not have had I not learned as much I have. I also believe I purchased by Exit Watch (same watch). These past 2 years have been such a fun ride and it was because of all these videos.
