Without watching Teddy Baldassare, i won't be a watch enthusiast today so thank you a lot!

This might be your best of the series so far: sure, more money to spend means more choice, fair enough, but I think that this entry's variety of watches and mix of suggestions was really well-considered and overall excellent

[sanghoonlee]

For the best bang for your buck... at $9000 you should buy 1 rugged sports watch with a dark dial and water resistance of 100+ meters and 1 thin dress watch with a silver/white/champagne dial--both preowned, both from mid-to-upper-tier brands like Omega or JLC, both under 5 years old but in near-mint conditions. With some patience and luck, you can build a killer 2-watch collection that is essentially worth double what you pay and covers all occasions and matches all types of clothing. And make sure the sports watch is one that looks good with both bracelet and strap.

Example:
-Omega Seamaster and Cartier Tank Solo
-Tudor BB58 and JLC Ultra Thin Date
-Breitling Super Ocean and Omega De Ville

i bought the Seiko 5 ssk1 GMT, and i could honestly say this is a wonderful watch. i feel like the Seiko GMT is what the Rolex master 2 was when it was first released. a good travel watch thats reasonably priced. you have to pick this up Teddy

that "white birch" grand seiko was absolutely stunning! Makes me think of the few birch trees growing around my childhood home and how interesting I thought they were.

Teddy….we need another “non-watch people react to….” Video! Just love those!

[miguelchavez]

I LOVE the my High Beat White Birch. Absolutely stunning, versatile and light play is exquisite. The New Movement is ground breaking tremendously accurate. Finishing second to none. Pure Class.

Teddy, this was a well balanced take at this price range and a big help for anyone who's in need of some advice. Job well done!

[ampdrum]

It's always great to learn about watches. I dig that you give love to so many brands and prices. A true gentleman and expert.

[splintercell]

Amazing - thanks for making these videos. I just purchased a new piece around this budget, and your work is truly helpful!

[slaptheaskshow]

This is how watch collecting will appeal to the average person and grow the amount of people collecting. Great video.

[toddlestien]

Teddy, I love all the different watches you show off, the market is so much broader than I thought before watching your videos,

My daily watch is a Le Forban Malouine, gorgeous little French navy watch you should check it out!

[corde_]

Love these list, way out of my budget but you could always dream. Keep up the good work, Teddy.

Just picked up my Seiko 5 gmt in Hong Kong USD 348, with NO sales tax! Shopping in HK is awesome

[AndyLSB]

Finally the Titoni Seascoper ! glad you found it and appreciate how awesome it is Teddy, that watch has been on my radar since release to be honest.

[chrisschulz]
