These lists are both the best and worst thing to me. Always introduces me to a cool watch or two that I hadn't considered, but also adds another watch or two to my wallet destroying bucket list. Thanks Teddy!

Next teach us how to have 12k lying around to spend on watches, really need that.

The lack of timeline breaks and summaries here makes this harder for me to follow as a concept. I didn't get a clear sense of, "here's the persona again, here's what we've selected so far again, here's our budget burndown again." Still enjoyed the vid!

Hot take: 200m dive chronos with screw down pushers - are so frustrating. You won’t be timing fish races, can’t unscrew or use underwater. but above water timing you’ll constantly never be ready to time, needing to unscrew and missing the start!

Doing a collection video about filling a 10-12 spot watch box collection at different price points would be cool!

Thanks for the video, and also for promoting Longines as a sleeper in the luxury Swiss watch market. I paid little attention to the brand until recently after watching your videos. I am really appreciating them as a heritage watchmaker that produces some unbelievably well made watches at extraordinary prices.

Longines Conquest about to be an enthusiast favorite

[@HydrogenAlpha]

With the exception of the Tudor Royale, which is fugly, these are just gorgeous. It is extremely difficult to keep money in the bank account with Teddy making videos like this.

[@zambonidriver42]

Pelagos 39 and GS SBGA413 Cherry Blossom. My favorite pair.

[@davidelliott948]

I really appreciate you including a wide variety of watches, and not just the usual suspects!

[@thomaszannier1638]

The only kind of binge-watching I enjoy 😉 Thanks Teddy !

[@marpasapram]

With inflation these days, I can't help but wonder if these watches would've been on a $10k episode last year...

[@MitchSnider]

Omega Seamaster 300m 2 tone gold on metal bracelet $12,300. One watch and DONE!!!

[@mikehester7819]

When you started talking about the duo category dress watch, I was hoping you were going to say the Senator Sixties. Awesome choice, I recently tried one on and it is definitely on my buy list now.

[@olivergroning6421]

Bought the MIDO Multiford TV 3 weeks ago. Fantastic watch, wears great on the steel bracelet even on smaller wrists. The Powermatic 80 is a great movement, my watch loses about 5 second a week (wearing it all day), i.e. less than 1 second a day. I was first inclined to the dark dial with the orange rubber bracelet. However, when trying it on the steel bracelet was much more convicting regarding look and also wearing comfort. So I went for the blue dial in steel. I would highly recommend to try the watch on before you buy.

A 12K budget makes for a great 3 to 5 piece luxury collection. Alot of value can be hand on the pre owned market

[@rachelades518]

Hallo Teddy, in this video I absolutely liked the lundis bleus the most. Second the last watch in the video the longines conquest. With some of the watches not so expensive one could buy quite a few for 12.000. and have a nice little watch collection. So as always love from Switzerland 🇨🇭

[@waynekomure1263]

Sorry, Teddy, it sounds like you’ve been receiving too many unreasonable critical comments. You are the best “voice” and authority for the watch lover. I really enjoy and am very impressed by your knowledge and enthusiasm. Please don’t get too discouraged…. Thank you

[@pharmer92]

Number 5 for sure. The GO and the Tudor chrono are both on my short list.

[@scottparrish5992]

Sorry, but the Zenith dial looks like a George Foreman Grill...
