BEST Vintage Watches To Buy Under $10k!

[@mentawatches]

We know there are a ton of great options under $10k we missed, so what’s your pick that didn’t make the list? Tell us in the comments!

[@greatchalla3799]

Skip the Sub…..and buy the Sea Dweller 16600…..it’s the best sport watch in its category. These were priced higher than the Sub’s and have solid end links and the upgrade steel was used before the Sub models.

[@stephenbaker8234]

Can you do one that’s below $5000? I’d love to know some other vintage options other than just Omega Seamaster

[@dannyg6592]

All superb selections -a vintage 1601 DJ is the perfect entry into the world of vintage. Love the 5513 Sub also.

[@mentawatches]

You can't go wrong with either!

[@davidtomasetti8520]

I loved that Doxa with the beads of rice bracelet, I will be keeping an eye out for them

[@James_K_L]

This has been very helpful, especially around Movados. Thanks.

[@markikn3183]

GREAT STUFF ADAM/JORDAN! Looking forward to the next price tranche and please (pretty please) start adding what you think are the best entry level Pateks, don't make us wait for the haute-level jawdroppers.

[@juliusapriadi]

Inspiring choices. My first vintage was a 1950s Landeron Chrono for 480€, and it still makes me smile when I wear it. Only my wife complains about the noisy movement ;)

[@WatchandSon]

Really enjoyable stuff guys. 🎉

[@Rowdy_UncleDave]

Absolute class video exactly what I was looking for.

[@FBinTexasNate]

I say just do $20k now and up, makes it even more interesting! Obligatory best watch channel.

[@craciunu]

Great! More under 5000 please!

[@blackswan786]

Universal Geneve! So many choices here. The Polerouter (Gerald Genta’s first hit design), Compax, Tri Compax. So many amazing choices under 10k.

[@cavaliericorey]

Speedmasters new, vintage or neo vintage are amazing buys right now in the market. Great video

[@Mitch-s6l]

Great episode!

[@Anonymous-k5r3b]

Porsche fan who discovered you via Smoking Tire Podcast. Yes! As a watch novice found what they call a "16040m 2 liner no date" for a clean look without the heft of the current watch. Keep the ideas going!

[@gregsaga682]

Great choices but what are the costs and maybe the availability of parts when servicing. Very important consideration.

[@frankphilpot3492]

Adam, you and Jordan came up with a list of great iconic vintage watches for under 10k. You hit the one I was going to mention the Rolex DateJust 1601. I'm out of ideas now, it's hard to come up with anything you don't know about, lol. Except maybe the Rolex 3742 Military, so yeah, I'll say that. Great video.😊

[@thehumador]

who makes the green jacket? i love it. great video.

[@mentawatches]

I think that one was visvim Kilgore

[@anonymousonlineuser6543]

1. Instead of boring SUB I would buy Universal Geneve Micro-rotor diver asymmetric case. 2. Instead of ubiquitous AP , I would buy Chopard St. Moritz Chronograph with Frederique Piguet movement and much more interesting Genta case. 3. Instead of ubiquitous speedmaster I would get Breguet Aeronavale.

[@glennboyer5929]

Watches! Zenith A384 would be a great addition to this list.

[@floridaboybrandon954]

Great choices ..yeah id either be going for the sub , SD or the 90s speedy.

[@mosmarb]

Was going to say a Heuer Carrera 2447 so glad to see it turn up! I'd go for one with a scale in preference too - 2447 T is for tachymeter by the way, not telemeter. There were no telemeter Carreras until TAG Heuer made one as a reedition, which I thought was a bit too anachronistic. D would be nice too, P might stretch the budget.

[@jeffdj1975]

Love this content

[@ItsNeverTooHot4Leather]

The AP Royal Oak isn't my style, but wow you are into the design, how could you miss out on a (quartz) Royal Oak for under/around $10,000?

[@Gavingrant440]

I'd love to see you do a video of your own collection.

[@jongejan162]

Great video

[@janezpetergrom4731]

Just picked up 2 PD issued to the Venezuelan Army 💪😎

[@marcn8750]

Neo vintage Laureato ref 8010 - 36 mm. A few hundred made Laureato-Olimpico chronograph. Ref 8017 A few hundred made 🤝

[@NikonFM2n]

Nice haircut, Adam. 😊

[@strapontin379]

Hello, thank you for this informative video! I have a superb Movado m90 almost new… but it is in 31mm. What do you think the value is? Thanks. Filipe

[@ColinWare-c3d]

Curious to see what a under 1000 list would look like

[@ListenToPowerViolence]

Tudor Submariners are beyond cool.

[@shaifulothman7442]

2 liner vs 4.....which one is more collectible?

[@nreid90]

I want a Bulova Royal Oak. Hard to find in great condition

[@HALAKBYMAE]

Hey guys, I love the idea of the 1601 or 1803 however the service cost is something I am scared of. Any idea how much a service from a reputable watchmaker would cost?

[@ListenToPowerViolence]

An AP under a tenner?

[@jeremymcbee4920]

I think the Rolex 1530 should have been on this list. It doesn't get enough love.

[@kevinloh2513]

1530 are trading well over 10

[@jeremymcbee4920]

@kevinloh2513 how about the 1630 instead.

[@dwtrksvc]

This is such a tempting area to go to but there are so many people faking stuff out there. I guess we all need to have the knowledge of Adam....or at least shop at Menta!

[@Uriel767]

yes good idee, see ya next time!

[@LaRusso]

Don't think I could ever buy a quartz tbh even from one of the big hitter brands.

[@andresrrcf]

No love for the vintage Zodiac Sea Wolf guys? 😢

[@VixCrush]

Get a calatrava or ellipse for 10k.. more style.

[@AxA0009-s3p]

We want another massimo collection update Had to downvote this

[@VixCrush]

If im getting an ap ill pay a bit more for the automatic. Quartz is trash.

[@SuccessShapers]

waiting for more animated watch stories

[@From_the_mil]

Omega Speedmaster Triple Date

[@philipwood1736]

Tudor big block for me in that price range.

[@Mark-jy6xd]

CWC uk ministry of defense issued

[@bertusbob]

👍👍👍

[@j5daniel182]

The desire for the tiny watches is just as ridiculous as the desire for the huge watches 10 years ago. It's almost like a a concerted effort by watch dealers so they can sell of the tiny watches no one wanted before and they got for cheap. Suddenly everyone on youtube has a girl's wrist size. If these were actually true, every single one of them would be hating on the 42mm Speedmaster.

[@bananerosabroso]

100%

[@ilFreg]

what are you talking about

[@GustapoGomez]

It’s telling you’re a casual to the game

[@lirahs7763]

Fck, what happened to Jordan’s hair? He went to turkey for a full hair transplant?

[@BabyJesus66]

Mental

[@gmoreira001]

Surprised a brand very near to my heart, Longines wasn’t on the list 🥹

[@zdnice]

Great video
