Andrew telling people to google ‘blue waffle’ is exactly the difference between this and watch finder.

[@buddhagunz]

Rated B for Blue Waffle

​@@AndrewMorganWatches I don't know if FPJ's success is not based on the fact that wealthy people want something that is the modern equivalent of handmade custom watches from over a hundred years ago. Crafts cost a fortune today.

Dear Andrew, I am thoroughly enjoying your KZbin channel, Talking Hands/Andrew Morgan Watches. It’s nice to put a face to your incredible wit and sense of humor. Normally on New Years morning, I would be watching something on the tv. Instead, I am binge watching your videos. Thank you for all that you do for the watch enthusiast community. Cheers. Virgil

[@AndrewMorganWatches]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate that! Happy new year 😁

[@ronlouie830]

From an old guy across the pond (Seattle): BRILLIANT! Of course, now we can't unsee your face, but interesting to see how you deliver your wonderfully written scripts with such pace and panache.

Whenever I see the notification on my phone that you've uploaded a video, I'll always watch it, even if the timepiece in question isn't something I care for. I always though no channel could do better than Watchfinder - then Mr Watchfinder himself made a channel. Nico, Teddy, Britt - just to name a few - whilst being great channels, pale in comparison to yours. Your style of presentation, that posh southern accent, the language used, the light hearted jokes - this channel is sublime and impeccable in every sense of the word. I wish you and the family a brilliant 2023. Keep it up bro 💪

[@jamescgarrett6356]

Great commentary, as always. It is always refreshing to hear this combination of humour, interest and deep knowledge, keep it up! I’d love to see an equivalent video, but focusing only on quartz watches. I’m gradually swinging away from mechanical/ auto movements so I’d be keen to see your take here. Keep well and keep up the great work :-)

[@balesjo]

I second that suggestion. I've only started paying attention to quartz offerings and was amazed to find that quartz isn't limited to cheap movements with a lot of plastic parts. There are actually movements built that are meant to be repaired and maintained, composed of metal parts. Then there are the high performance quartz movements (for example the Longines VHP - Very High Performance - that has impressive features such as power savings and perpetual calendar).

[@AndrewMorganWatches]

Thank you so much for watching 😁

[@tomscott4438]

My Speedmaster (Hesalite) is probably my favorite in my collection. Glad it made it on your list. Haven't worn it in a few weeks, but it's been raining a lot in CA, and my Seamaster 300 is a bit more attuned to the wet.

[@bradg2069]

Great list. Love the Speedy and the Black Bay. Tudor has that watch in a John Player Special color that would catch an eye from a watch nerd from a 100 yards. The only watches i think I'd add are the JLC master control ultra thin, which may be one of the most impressively subtle watches that I've seen in person. Simply incredible. the 36mm Rolex Explorer, which is kind of boring but also perfect to own if you only had one watch(same with the Omega Aqua Terra). And last but not least the Nomos Orion. If you ever see someone in public wearing a Nomos, you know they just get it.

[@karthikvigneshwar8742]

Ultimately, we all want a watch that can have timeless serviceability. If a watch can't kept serviceable then it is valueless, in my opinion. I can only say that for a few brands. Omega, Rolex etc. Also limited editions have a problem as well. There are no specific parts available. Just try. Microbands, if they use a movement that is serviceable, then they can also remain timeless. Happy New Year!

Wishing you health and happiness and your new channel much success in 2023 and beyond. About the list, agree with the person who earlier suggested the Explorer and the Santos (I own both). But I can see one reason neither made the list - the manufacturers can’t get the size right on either of these. I own the 39mm Explorer which is both perfect and no longer available and the 40mm Santos which because of the case shape wears big but tolerable. The smaller Santos is way too small. Cartier makes this in 38mm they’d sell out forever.

[@cjr1324]

@Christopher Wood -MDH- certainly - was more speculating on what the most universal size might be. Glad yours is a perfect fit. It’s certainly a classic and killer watch. Cheers 🥂.
