Love it! A wind indicator how cool is that!! A great find enjoy!

NICE! I’ve been kicking myself for a few years now, for not just spending the money on an 1884 riverside 5min repeater that ended up selling at around $1500 on auction. It was still in the box, had obviously never been used, and despite it being running on gummy 100+ year old lube, it was running and chimed on time. I haven’t seen one since. There’s a few five minute repeaters available for high prices, not riverside, not working or proof of working. One I’ve seen on eBay for years. A lot of scams on eBay with pocket watches right now. Japan, India, Bulgaria, and as usual China. Elgin, and Waltham marked and marketed as such. eBay does very little about it, as they pay for “Sponsored” veiws. Ukraine has a lot that appeared after the start of the war, so one can only imagine how it wound up on eBay.

Congratulations, truly an excellent find in mint condition!. A fine addition to your pocket watch collection.

Ah, but will you wear it?... :^)

insane collection, and i love that its not just what everyone else has

Ooooo FOFF ans get bent! Only a Rolex shill could say The el effing primero is a homage of a rulux Daytona! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 put your rich snob uneducated advice you know where! And no, I'm not poor, i can afford Rolex garbage but I'd rather buy a REAL clone than buy from them creating a fake market! Real honest those guys eh? And you know why Rolex is copied the most? Marketing and easy to replicate models AND MOVEMENTS! haha you're a fool buying for 25k a 100 watch! Haha oh but the ad made wyou fweel gwood and gave you champagne? He even said you're slim and smart? Bwahahahaha! Live and let live and go put yer head where the sun don't shine! Buh-byeeee 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Daytona is a copy of el primero. El the, primero first! Get your abcs straight before spewing bs

You have a very good taste in watches. I live the ones that're just a 'little different'. I am the same as you (except the Tudor/Rolex).

Sinn makes a really cool silver watch. Is it made from a special silver alloy, Argenteum silver, that is really easy to clean the tarnish off with a special cloth. I really appreciate the different metals you have in your collection. Tantalum is wicked cool.

I have a "Stuhrling Original Men's" pocket watch in stainless with the little kickstand, partial skeleton, open caseback. It was my first mechanical watch, bought about 10 years ago. It was then and is today less than $100 on Amazon. This Stuhrling is beautiful and the reason I got into mechanical watches. I have a growing collection now, and still consider this a significant piece. It has some miles but it winds, runs, and keeps good time. I used it during my PE exam and it didn't fail me.

I can tell that Rolex and Daytona used to be made in Hong Kong, just the crown assembly is in Switzerland

Thanks for this video 👍, I would do mine myself or pay $25 to $30 bucks at the mall.

what would a SSK inside a Triangle stands for ? what kind of watch case manufacture ?

Please note that not all Imperial Japanese pilots were Kamikazes. The watch you have is an Imperial Army Airforce issue timepiece. The Imperial Navy pilots used Seikosha chronographs.

That's one ugly watch! Is it even a watch?

what is the watch case with a triangle and SSK within means ?

Agree completely! I own this exact watch and wear it daily, even in the shower. Hands down this GW-5000U is the best Casio square money can buy.

I’m always looking for quality reviewers on KZbin. This guy ain’t it. The arrogance and ignorance is astounding. I don’t remember subscribing, but I will definitely remember unsubscribing!

$500, no sir. I guess as an Aragon fan, my expectations are higher. This means I can get 9015 powered Aragon Virtuoso, with a baguette cut gemstone bezel, 1000m WR, plus Ti case and bracelet for less than $500

Funky dial and cool case 😎

UPDATE - Movement is a Japanese Seiko N35. Company is sending me a replacement secondary to my minor QC issue - That’s a quality company.

I do rather like that, even if it’s a bit large. Chinese-made watches are indeed pretty good these days. There are microbrand/independents that I think have their own look such as Beaucroft, Isotope, Echo Neutra, Formex, Paulin… This Zinvo reminds me a bit of the Perrelet turbine, even if it operates differently. Thanks for sharing Patrick and a Happy New Year!

Not a pocket watch!

Great video! I like the Gotham for my price range

Who said you can’t enjoy a fake…eh, replica? The growing popularity of quality replicas watches should tell you that some people are just as happy, if not happier, wearing a watch they couldn’t otherwise afford. Or in some cases not willing to spend a wad of money on. Clone, homage, clomage… I love em all. No one cares what you have on your wrist but you.

Should you decide to move on from the black discus burger, I am a buyer. Don't know it would happen and how we'll do it but I am interested. Great collection by the way. Enjoy!

It's pretty obvious you know very little about watches and should maybe do some more research before purchasing anymore. I'm sure the ad would have had pictures of the movement in the listing (if it didn't, why did you buy it?), and simply looking at the movement should have been a dead giveaway that it wasn't 21 jewels. Also I'm sure the case back with the "Platinum" wording would have been shown in the ad, and that's obviously fake from a glance as it's missing a lot of other information. Could I advise you to maybe deal with known good dealers in pocket watches until you gain some knowledge and learn what to look for when purchasing from ebay?

I am very sad you sold the G-Shock, I drive 18 wheelers for a living and haul flatbed on top of that so I wear a G-Shock to work everyday, it stands up to the vibration of being on the truck day in and day out and the shocks of throwing chain/straps. Edit: The Dune watch is too cool! I would buy one if Hamilton didnt have them so ridiculously overpriced That Mecexp 2000 is too cool also!

I don't think all the removable links are like that one very large link. My SBGT011 has the same bracelet, and it does have that same large link, but i think the rest are regular sized removable links. I just thought it was a mistake on my bracelet, but maybe it was intentional by GS?

How long do you need each time choosing a piece in the morning?? It'd be my maze.

That’s a lot of not pocket watches.

Do you have a watch from great grandfather Clarence Decker?

Very cool. That red dial mod is probably my favorite. I found myself with 31 watches and decided 30/31 was the largest collection you should have because you can tell yourself you could wear one a day if you wanted. 🤣

I don't want to spoil your content, but this company reeks of china to me. There have been multitude of new webshops called "Elisa Barcelona" or "Julie Madrid" for clothes and the like: they pop up out of the blue in Ig, claiming to be little ateliers....fact is everything comes from aliexpress-like shops. The translations in Tempomat website and the fact tat you CAN'T find a postal address anywhere in the website is a clear sign of a business not based in Spain, and the return policy is atrocious. Beware

complete unusable if there is no minute indicater, if you like something rotating on the dial you can consider a Perelet turbine watch.

I do enjoy my Pagani pieces as much as my Rolex pieces. I don't have to worry about breaking or losing a Pagani, the same cannot be said about my Rolex pieces. Excellent quality for the buck and some I have haven't missed a beat in over 4 years. Seiko movements in most too.

MAMACOO has set a new standard for replica watches. Their craftsmanship is impeccable. Its hard to tell the difference from the originals

first time watcher. love that vortic, AMAZING!

Rado is my favorite watch brand. Enjoy!

I have a Pegani design, love it. Quality is pretty decent.

Hey Patrick 👋 I'll just respond here to some of the watches you mention: *Tissot PRX (SOLD)* I think I'll keep my PRX in quartz with black dial as a worry-free quartz watch, but it's not a "special" watch by any means. *Formex "Space Rock" (SOLD)* Absolutely great that you passed this on to someone who was really sorry they missed their chance before. Previously you told a story of trying to help another collector, but this time you were successful. 👍 *GW-5000U (SOLD)* I often hear people say "every collection needs a g-shock", and I don't know how serious they are about that, but obviously nobody _"needs"_ to listen to anyone else's ideas about what they should own. I'm glad you gave this watch a shot, though. *Girard-Perregaux 38mm Laureato "Bamford"* I've said it before and I'll say it again: Awesome watch. Love it, love it, love it. Hey, I'm going to become a GP owner myself in January. After missing my chance initially, it's a Christmas Miracle that I've secured an allocation for a Casquette 2.0 Titanium&Gold. Quentin at GP is a hero in my house. *Wyler Code-R Tantalum* Cool watch! I may have to pick up a tantalum watch myself, though I'm not a chrono guy. *Zodiac Super Sea-Wolf Meteorite* Probably a good plan to sell. Perfectly fine watch that someone will love. *Seiko "Discus-Burger"* Neat! Rare & cool. *Crazy Ass Dune 2 Watch* You know damn well it's crazy. I like it, especially that bonkers crystal. I have a Hamilton PSR, and the crystal is a highlight of that watch, too (though it's not nearly as large & impressive). *Seiko "Jay Leno"* Really cool! Pretty good pick by Mr. Leno. *Grand Seiko SBGY009* A manual winder does need a crown that's pleasant to use. I'm becoming partial to onion crowns. I tried a big ass diamond crown and that's not for me (dug into my wrist). *Vortic conversion* Awesome. A highlight, IMO. *Rado DiaStar* I really like this one. A tungsten case, b/c of course! One of my favorites. *Sinn U50 Pro* I took a good look at Sinn, and I'd love a U50. I could make do with a non-limited model. *MECEXP MS1000 (titanium)* That one will definitely get some comments. Normally we say "nobody cares about your watch", but it's less true for that one. Really neat. *Doxa Army (ceramic)* It's a really cool looking watch, but I might even agree that non-limited model in steel with the green bezel looks even a bit better. *Rolex SkyDweller* Their most complicated watch, and yours is a beaut. I don't think about Rolex much, but I'm no hater. ---- You have a great collection, and I'm interested to see how it continues to evolve. Thanks, Patrick 👍

Thanks for sharing and taking the effort to make this. It was super cool to discover your collection. It has introduced me to some really cool ideas. Kudos.

I have a Hamilton Ventura skeleton XXL which I love but wear very infrequently….. and even I have to question the Dune!!!!!!! 😊 lovely video thanks for sharing………

Great collection. Finally, I get to put a face to the chat😊

Cool video. My PRX didn't get wrist time either.

Awesome collection.

What an awesome collection, so many interesting pieces, The White G.P. Laureato Bamford, the Moonphase Credor, the Vortic Waltham are absolutely Gorgeous, Thank you for sharing your interesting collection, the coolest SOTC so far and ive seen a few this month.

What a lovely and unique collection! My favorite is the converted pocket watch. I’m also partial to the BB58’s as I have both of those as well. Did you ever find a bronze clasp? I ended up with a rose gold one to match the hands.

Now to get you to wear some pocket watches... :^)

Nice STOC video! Thank you. We became Discus Burger bros this year after becoming Credor bros last year! I have a similar redundancy issue with the Credors in my collection but I cannot part with either of them yet.

I recently watched (and thoroughly enjoyed) Midnight Run, and watches play ed a significant and sentimental role in the film. One cannot forget about the infamous watch in Pulp Fiction as well.
