"So the perfect watch is probably a myth -- or at least, an A. Lange & Sohne" I see what you did there, haha! Nice

[@bellcranel0889]

@V P in terms of price it is, but a lange makes better watches IMO

[@9inchpp]

I don't get it

[@bellcranel0889]

@V P I do know about their automatons however we are talking about wristwatches. They sit differently on other shelves. A lange for chonographs with tourbillon and sonnerie which was quite robust versus jaquet droz fragile art watches.

[@davidofglenbrook4487]

V P Ten years ago I became friends with a well-known watch retailer (in the New England area). He carried many high-end names. I recall that he dropped JD because of concerns over quality control. I certainly hope those problems are behind them now...

[@RafaelERyder]

And right.

[@jauharshahbaz]

That Eterna Royal Kontiki blew my breath away!

[@Drakovox]

The perfect watch exist just for the day, today can be a dress watch and tomorrow a diver. But for most of the days....A. Lange & Söhne Datograph

[@Elwon20]

Watched this video, saw the Eterna, heard £2k, jaw dropped, opened Google, only one place to buy, cost £3.5k, came back here, realised video was posted 2 years ago, cried.

[@mikec3454]

That Jaquet Droz is outstanding - adding that one to the grail list. What a beautiful watch for the price....

[@oatmongen4263]

The design is over 200 years old too. I thought it was a modern minimalist take at first.

[@TommyRibs]

I have a 1966 Eternamatic Super Kontiki. It was my Father's. I have had it for 25 years now. I wear it everyday and it keeps great time still. Every watch guy that sees it loves it.

With a voice and intonation like this, one can make any miracle a reality to believe in.

[@derekrolle6705]

It would be great to see a review of the Jaquet Droz Astrale.

[@Hamburgerdad]

That Eterna is beautiful! nice to know that there are watches out there that look amazing but don't break the budget necessarily. My nearly perfect watch without being too expensive (as you asked) is the Hamilton Khaki Auto. It has an automatic ETA movement, date function, can be dressed up when required and works great in the field.

[@TheChadWork2001]

I like that Kontiki

[@DanteMiami]

The ALS Lange 1, the Moser Venturer Small Seconds, and the Habring2 Doppel 3 are all pretty close to perfect.

[@unlockyourmac]

I'm surprised you didn't mention the KonTiki's instant minute change. That's a feature usually reserved for much, much more expensive brands.

[@MrAshar101]

Don't know why instant minute change something special... I mean it's basically a mechanical watch mimicking the minute change of a quartz watch

[@fuadnebir4950]

@@MrAshar101 You just described what makes it supremely special.

[@smashexentertainment676]

Can we have more Jaquet Droz watches? Perpetual calendar and ones with birds? I know they are expensive like hell, but non the less they are are the state of art, and that's what your channel is all about!

[@ironmic9244]

The perfect unlimited budget watch for me would have a Lange finishing, a Breguet tourbillon and hands, and a JLC movement. Budget constraints: Oris Rectangular Complication. Great pedigree, rectangular case, curved sapphire glass, and a guilloche, sunburst dial with polished applied Arabic numerals (which reflects light light a diamond sans bling). Day sub-dial at 3, Date sub-dial at 9, GMT sub-dial at 6, and Moon Phase at 12. Never seen a GMT and Moon Phase complication together before. Under $1000 if you can find it.

[@joeyvico]

That Eterna watch was an ye opener to me. It's beautiful!

[@johnbenton5102]

My head jumps to Nomo Weltzeit. It has some many creature comforts, innovative design, great proportions, high standards of finishing, it is just an over all complete package. The only thing is that it is not a watch with a lot of history (yet!). That thing has a lot going for it for how much it costs.

[@Lee-pv1lg]

I don't have much love or enthusiasm for watches but I love how this guy talks about history and mechanics

[@luke_t2614]

My favorite well priced watch is definitely my speedmaster reduced. Its my first luxury watch because I was fascinated by its look and its heritage.

[@Karsonbarnes11]

I absolutely love Jaquet Droz!

[@jasonantigua6825]

That’s a beautiful watch

[@Bambi851]

My top 3; Eterna Kontiki Bronze, Speedmaster, SBGA031. Absolutely love the macro shots in your videos, hypnotizing.

[@lynhbn]

Owning an Eterna watch. Very satisfied. Very admired the meaning of the logo!

[@AlphaOMS]

My favorite affordable watches are the Oris Aquis, Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon and now Eterna Adventic GMT as of last week. I really enjoy these watches and feel thr quality supercedes their price points.

[@fukutaichou1903]

You know. I'm watching this from a third world country and not very sure if I can ever get a hold of these luxury pieces in my lifetime, but I'm always always drawn in by the beauty and history of these watches. It helps that the narrator's voice is so calming too.

[@69johndz]

Most of us can't, but what makes us great is that we can appreciate beauty without envy. Always believe in your inner strength and goodness. I hope someday, with hard work and belief, you can escape your country or make your country the dream you have.

[@ElwoodPDowd-nz2si]

These are inexpensive for very very wealthy people. How many heating bills and bags of groceries could this watch provide people in need.

[@JonasNeumann6]

I love the Case and bezel of the eterna. The subdial position and the hour markers are absolutely perfect. But the chapter rings of the subdials are just too bulky and the ring in the middle of the watch are just not my type. It is a 90% watch... just not enough for me to consider putting it on my list

[@Khanh.Nguyen369]

Wow that Eterna.

[@mrkappa95]

Thanks for reminding me of Jaquet-Droz! Very nice piece the Grand Seconde, so far probably my favourite dress watch

I like the Baume & Mercier Clifton Club Ref. 10340: Automatic, 42mm black dial, stainless steel case, 100m water resistance, date, well protected crown, sapphire glass and a beautiful bracelet for under 1,500 £. For me a robust and affordable watch to wear on a beach - maybe worth a review?

My Glashütte Panoreserve (new grey Version). Putting it on makes me happy. Same as wearing the old Glashütte Spezimatic from my Grandpa.

Jaquet Droz has excellent collections.. Thanks for the History and Background..

[@cardamundo295]

That Eterna is beautiful, the story behind the watch along with the heritage of the brand makes the whole line worth looking into. The basic Kontiki (still 200m) can currently be picked up at below £600-£700 in the UK at that price I don't think I can turn it down! (If anyone owns one I would be very interested to know what they're like to wear) thanks!

[@dude...are-you-sure]

I'm impressed by that Eterna. Looks super sporty.

[@TheDerisavi]

Black dial OMEGA Aqua Terra 41mm day-date is very near to perfect. You can dress it up, down, swimm, leather, nato, bracelet, compatible with any dress code, 60h power reserve, antimagnetic to 16000 gauss, accurate, 150m water resistant and relatively cheap. Let me tell you: it's the Perfect Watch.

[@i556x45]

as much as I see the appeal of most Rolexes (I do long for a few of the models in their catalogue), the fact that you can actually buy an Omega without becoming a circus animal for your AD is really refreshing.

The Droz has been on my wish list for awhile. It wasn’t until the proliferation of these resell sites that I could imagine owning one. But, I just purchased the Omega Moonwatch for my retirement so the next purchase is down the road.

[@legoc3po601]

Congrats!

[@AaronSchwarz42]

Using the words "cheap" & "cheaper" when the watches your talking about cost thousands $ + // seems a little hyperbolic

[@hattorihanzohelper]

That instant change minute counter, sublime.

[@valtersavarelli2619]

my ideal watch would have these functions: 1) Complete calendar, 2) 6/8 Days of power reserve and related indicator, 3) lunar phases, 4) a mechanism to ensure the minute hand is automatically adjusted to the exact position corresponding to the actual seconds of the seconds hand.

[@OldFArt-gx9fh]

For me it’s Vincent Calabrese Night and Day with brown/gold crushed paper dial. I love wearing the watch and can never stop looking at it, but I only do so on special occasions as the watch is so rare and I don’t want to damage it or lose it.

[@MikeyFFA500]

Tudor Pelagos (blue) is one of the best values on the market IMO

[@morten170]

Love this video please do more of these

[@dougm659]

How interesting, two of these watches, the JD and the GP are on my “must buy” list and this video simply reinforces those choices...the Eterna..... decent but not really all that intriguing. Nice work as always, really appreciate the research behind these videos.

[@centrallyintelligentagency]

Doug M but the eterna has an instant change minute counter, is a flyback, has a 28,800 column wheel movement...this thing is rife with value when it costs $3800 CAD used...

[@dougm659]

F Respects yeah, fair enough, but I have a Zenith El Primero Type 20 Pilot watch with a 36,000 vph chronograph so the Eterna wouldn’t add anything to my particular collection.

[@aromaticsnail]

When you get one in your stock, please review a watch with the ETA caliber 205.111 (e.g. Seamaster Omegamatic 2514.50.00). A quartz movement with automatic winding is such a crazy thing

I recently got a chance to see a "Junghans" in person, I'd never held one or even knew much about the brand's history. It reminded me of Germany architecture, and the AD remarked it is indeed one of the Bauhaus inspired brands. He showed me the Max Bill Chronoscope and I was blown away - it actually struck me more than Nomos. The AD asked me to guess the price, and I gave it an estimate of between 5K-8K; was shocked to realise it was worth less than 2K brand new. Going to add it to my collection next week.

[@barfymann362]

@V P A Max Bill Limited Edition of 1000 Pieces, with Caliber: J880.2 (base ETA 7750) and Power Reserve of 48 hours didn't seem like too much of a bad deal for 2K. The watch is beautifully crafted. I think it would make a wonderful dress watch.

[@mrfuriouser]

@V P No. Wow. You, apparently, have no clue about pricing in the modern world. The Meisters at Junghans do not ask your opinion about pricing for anything. Nor does anybody else, of that I am sure. Pricing of any good is not based upon the opinion of V P. What you will pay has ZERO significance upon either the market or pricing structure. So why do you feel compelled to shit on someone else's opinion with your opinion? Are you buying the watch for him? Then put down the keyboard, man.

[@mrfuriouser]

Good on you, my man! They are great, once you get it in your hand, it is undeniable. I purchased one a year or so ago, and it will stay in my collection.

Favorite near perfect watch? Grand Seiko Snowflake: Innovative, in-house movement with the smoothest sweeping seconds, uncommon case material, subtle textured dial and crazy mirror polish on both dial and case; all executed with a sheer obsession in quality control and production value to the point they grow and age the quartz crystals used in their Spring Drive movements by themselves. All this at less than a Rolex Datejust.
