Building the BEST Watch Collection with

[@LumeShot]

I had lots of fun Derek! Thanks for inviting me out and letting me handle so many cool watches 🥳🥳

[@MinuteMon]

Lmao I had a such a fun time, I knew it was gonna be a great time when we started with rock paper scissors 😂

[@silicon_hairspring]

Derek serving as a Santos Medium ambassador? It's no surprise that I have one myself. Would love to discuss my 50k collection next time I'm in, Derek! And I hope you're doing well, Eric! That Fiftysix is looking sharp.

🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@SteveFWatches]

So funny you each corrupt each other. Moving up the budget! We need part 2 100k such a fun video

[@WatchesBeAwesome]

A great episode - please partner together more often! And great choice with the Santos. I've loved my WSSA0037 and WSSA0039.

[@pgopal6]

Nice, fun episode. Loved both of your approaches. I think Derek’s collection was better in the end.

[@MDSkai]

With Derek's GMT pick, I totally would've swapped the hydroconquest for a different diver and snagged the zulu time! great videos guys

[@willcarella]

i like these types of videos man. lumeshot seems like a cool dude.

[@wertj3977]

Great choices and fun video. I like how it is long form and there is a good deal of discussion around the choices here. If I were to do this I would've chosen as follows (30k budget): - Omega Railmaster (My current everyday watch which I wear on a rubber strap, also this is super expensive retail wtf xD) [5700] - Grand Seiko SLGH013 (I'd put this on a leather strap) [9500] - Glashutte original panomatic lunar Blue dial (simply elegant piece) [9900] - Longines Zulu Time anthracite dial (High quality GMT and is an alternative to the Omega) [3150] - King Seiko SPB287 (For the dial, heritage and overall look / proportions alone) [1700] Total : 29950

[@MinuteMon]

Those are some great choices and a killer $30k collection

[@chowda4u]

Interesting to see two very different collecting approaches to this fantasy exercise. Well done gents!

[@cookiesforbbfast]

Enjoyed this a lot! Great way to get a store tour (hehe). Makes me wish I had stopped by during my last visit to New York. Next time !

[@dukes70]

Great to see you both in a fun video! I can appreciate going with emotions but Derek has better overall choices!! 👏👏

[@alwong604]

Derek's collection was more well rounded and better balance. Eric's collection had THE heavy hitter going with the Breguet. Eric FTW

[@kyleweber9760]

Some stunning pieces that GO is a beaut!!!!

[@sumitkar8146]

For me - Speedy 3861 Hesalite, Santos Medium, Submariner no date, GS Omiwatari and a nice vacation to Belize🤣🤣

[@MinuteMon]

That’s the best way to play 😂 I’d go for a vacation

[@danielmelendez9943]

For sure i would love to have a chance to do a fantasy shopping day. I currently own a GMT-coke dial 2005, Sinn U1-T SDR, which is actually my everyday watch. I am now looking at a another purchase. I am looking for a whote face dial from Omega or Grand Seiko. While i like Glasshutte, i noticed they dont have white dials for the Sea Q-panoramic. Seems like white dials are not in demand. Great video! Love the Cartier santos

[@oliviersebastian1516]

Great Choice Grand Seiko❤

[@ryangochuico]

Thanks for the store tour. It has great brand selections🤩

[@gabigolz]

Great episode and the store is beautiful

[@TheSalsa1977]

Great video!

[@sallysbananenrepublik3740]

Derek won easely, the glashütte watch was the most beautiful of all of them!

[@MinuteMon]

Take that Eric

[@LumeShot]

hey hey now 🤣

[@regalyin6111]

🔥🔥🔥

[@TwentyOne_Five]

20:56. This was worn correctly

[@DJMasse]

My #1 question for Eric: Has he ever returned to the McDonald's by Weylin in Brooklyn since the GS event last year 🤣

[@MinuteMon]

Lol I doubt it

[@LumeShot]

🤔🤔🤔

[@DJMasse]

@@LumeShot 🙉🙉

[@ginotez]

What a fun episode! Awesome guest as well

[@chadlampe4026]

This was like Teddy and Kevin, except y’all are not insufferable. 😂

[@MinuteMon]

It was our first time trying to shoot a shopping episode so we had a lot to learn and were just messing around, but glad that it was at least entertaining for people

[@LumeShot]

hopefully more relatable!

[@doffyvi]

Guys u think if u were to buy an cartier santos it will last 50 years for example?

[@JinxPalm2023]

Other than the Cartier, GS and Tissot, all those other pieces look too big on your wrists. Since I have a smaller wrist myself, I feel pieces on leather should be no bigger than 38mm and on bracelets no greater than 40mm 💯 On a side note, I think another unique idea would be to have one of your KZbin viewers come into the store and play this game of best watches under a certain amount dollar wise. It'll be fun and good for community 👍

[@liangweihao7932]

Come on.. What kind of watch enthusiast won't know immediately that the VC and Breguet will instantly pop his $30k budget?

[@MinuteMon]

LOL, I think Eric was hoping to find something $20k range such as a VC FiftySix or Breguet 5177

[@LumeShot]

One can always dream
