Finally, a New Speedmaster!

[@clearviewworld1164]

Michael makes the show funnier light and not so fact-based

[@samabbaticola]

Thanks for the comment, I'm no Michael but i'll definitely try to bring my own version of this on future episodes. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch.

[@bgrelek6311]

ignore these losers, they just complain to complain and because this guy just saw others complaining for no reason@@samabbaticola

[@markreynolds9135]

Bring back Michael.

[@joshuatvernon]

Why not both 🤷‍♂️

[@rickjason215]

​@@joshuatvernonNot possible.

[@UltraDoug]

Yeah where is he? Did I miss something?

[@BabyJesus66]

*Harris

[@diemes5463]

There is no Michael, he is only a figment of your imagination.

[@Mark..P]

Bring back Michael. The chemistry was amazing and such fun to watch 🙏

[@SaddleSC]

Can you at least be a little bit transparent about the future of Theo & Harris and Micheal moving forward? If Sam and Christian is the new default pairing, not sure I will keep watching...

[@jamalkherry5296]

Yes agree. Need a little transparency

[@josephwilliams4709]

100% him and Micheal sound like two friends chatting about watches over a drink Sam sounds knowledgeable but he doesn’t have the same feel to it.

[@TheoandHarris]

We have already addressed this. Sam and Michael will be alternating and we’ll also be doing videos all 3 together

[@steelsteez6118]

isnt it fairly obvious to you guys? It's very likely that Michael has decided to start his own channel (which like every other watch KZbinr, his channel will likely be named after his first and last name). But instead of a hard cold launch where he just leaves, he'll probably test the waters first. This alternating act of appearing on Theo and Harris affords him a soft transition by freeing up some of his time so that he can pursue his own individual content creation venture, while still remaining somewhat involved with the theo harris channel. It's fairly predictable. Then again, I could be 100% wrong 😂 but it just seems like the most obvious scenario.

[@nathanthebe6497]

Why did Michael have to leave

[@michaelvitello837]

Yeah did I miss something? Where is Michael?

[@Ubertechgirl66]

Michael is the only reason I started watching this channel. 😢

[@DavidMoreira4]

Give Sam his segment and let this talks be with you and michael, Sam is great but ffs don't just change co-hosts, pls, love yall

[@shepardt]

I just love sitting here wearing my Speedmaster listening to you guys say great things about Omega and Speedmasters. It’s a perfect first (nice) watch!

[@bakaroo23]

It’s THE classic sports watch for me. The Speedmaster and my tank is my two watch collection. + a seiko turtle for hiking / hard living.

[@kart182]

Aeropress is finally a sponsor that is already a well known and regarded product in its space

[@yugosat_watches]

I do appreciate you putting the episodes cohost. It helps me know if I will watch it or not. BRING BACK MICHAEL

[@larslofgren4174]

I don't normally comment and I realize I don't like change, but i miss Michael..... no offense to Sam....

[@samabbaticola]

None taken, completely understand. Don't worry Michael is still on the channel. I appreciate you still taking the time to watch the videos with me in them.

[@mrpotatoooooo]

Gotta rename this the Sam Harris podcast

[@timyoungnc]

Bring Michael back please.

[@diemes5463]

Wow, this has to be the most appropriate sponsor you've ever had on the channel.

[@andrewmouncey4782]

Michael is more theo and harris than the both of you

[@NKNFAIR]

No Harris no view

[@UltraDoug]

T&H Drinking Game: every time Christian says “period end”, drink. You’ll be ripped in 5 min.

[@verynormalman]

We play "bald spot". Every time Sam turns his head, and you can see where his comb over originates from, then you have to drink two fingers of beer from a UK pint glass. Also every time Sam shows his submissive side, agreeing with Christian, even though he's BULKSHITing, you drink 1finger of beer. The third theme is to finish your drink entirely if you ever feel your in Joysee with The Sopranos.

[@MDSkai]

WOW these comments are ruthless! Chill out guys. I think the issue is the clash of personalities, Michael offered a proper contrast like Yin and Yang. Sam and Christian is like Yin and Yin, which is just a black hole, a pit of despair and lost dreams.... All jokes aside, I think Sam is fine, the format of the videos just might have to flow differently so the different chemistry matches its presentation. Nevertheless, keep it pushing and forget the haters

[@samabbaticola]

We're definitely more Yin and Yin haha. Thanks for watching and I'm working on getting better so the flow and chemistry are more smooth.

[@ryan_chandler]

I love how stoked you guys have been on Omega. I refer you guys to a lot of my watch clients

[@samabbaticola]

Our pleasure, really excited to see what they have in store for 2024.

[@ViolinistWilliam]

Sam’s a nice guy and I love T and H but damn. You guys really need to put Michael behind the mic

[@samabbaticola]

Thanks for following the channel, don't worry Michael is still on the channel. I appreciate you watching the videos.

[@ViolinistWilliam]

@@samabbaticola you are a cool dude Sam, no hate. The 3 of you should all be behind the mic

[@aaronmauer7225]

Michael brings good balance to the videos. Let’s have all 3 on the video

[@samabbaticola]

Already in the works!

[@osobad1127]

Where da faq is Michael??? Christian without Michael is like Ebert without siskel 😮

[@AndreaDoesYoga]

Wow, that Speedmaster looks stunning! ☕️🚀

[@steelsteez6118]

You did great Sam! Enjoy hearing your enthusiasm!

[@NickAlexTheo]

where is Michael?

when i went to the omega event in NYC I asked the guys w/ omega if the watch Daniel Craig was wearing was stainless steel and they said yes. the watch that ben from hodinkee was wearing at the event was the gold version. there ya have it, lol

[@SirStamford27]

What's happened to Michael, have i missed something??

[@hamilstarr4292]

We need Michael

[@DL-wl6fk]

"They just behave in a very refined way, elegant period" Omega...hold my beer... sticks a toy rocket on the Apollo.

[@matthewblair4963]

Thumbnail was enough to keep me from watching

[@TheJosephhomere13]

Michael is busy guys and if you couldn’t tell they record a few episodes in the same day.

[@IIDave]

As evidenced by the half empty bottle of tequila and how drunk Christian is in this episode. 😂

[@denniscreemers2694]

Idea for a T&H baseball cap: green cap with the writing «Period end.»

[@willthebatboy]

I’m not watching this show since Michael is not on. Same with Anna long ago. Nothing against them but you found something that finally worked just right!!

[@samabbaticola]

First off thanks for following the channel for that long. Understand I have big shoes to fill, but i'm working on getting better with each video. I appreciate you still taking the time to watch.

[@WallaceNine]

Can we lower NotMicheal's chair or maybe get Christian a high chair ??

[@samabbaticola]

We've adjusted this for future episodes, trust me in real life I'm not that much taller than Christian. Thanks again for watching -NotMichael

[@robb5257]

Christian , 1.)bring back Michael 2.)quit the steroids

[@joeschlicht]

I MUST have it. And I already have and love the 3861 moonwatch, though it's in for service already. The white dial and black hands are fantastic, much in the way the Exp II 16570 polar dial is. But the Speedmaster looks even better.

[@douglascheesman]

Okay. So, this is actually Sam’s best video because it crystallizes the dynamics, for me. Michael: appears to be effortlessly cool and knowledgeable despite the fact that he is trying pretty hard. Christian: desperately wants to be cool and expends great effort even though he’s a nerdling who knows rules of grammar and the proper usage of idioms and turns of phrase. Sam: Is an Everyman who misuses words (malapropisms) in great ways and can tell his ass-hat know-it-all best friend to “shut the f@ck up” when he gets something wrong. That’s the dynamic that you’ve got to lean into, the sort of back and forth where Christian’s showing off and wielding his insider knowledge like a baseball bat is balanced with Sam’s earnestness to learn and grow and every now and then he can check Christian for being an absolute nerd. Also- Michael is still the man. Because his effort to be cool is so well hidden. That is true cool. Direction of the channel is “going to the moon!”

[@Mega-zi7ys]

Beautiful and understated! Love Omega!

[@motorcycleguy73]

Thanks!

[@ericwolak2712]

Say “period end” one more time! I dare you. I double dare you. Say “period end” one more time!

[@FightingMango]

God damn it bring back Harris!!

[@cookingwithchauhan1924]

Loving Sam and his banter / confidence. We all need to give people time. Good job Sam. There will always be people who dislike change. But you are doing a good job.

[@samabbaticola]

Thank you! Really appreciate the comment.

[@bbrebozo6417]

The campus gold speedy is the most discounted precious metal speedy (it’s also the most expensive one). A close but not identical watch might help its popularity.

[@silvestrocrino3256]

Could it just have been lightning that made the hands and indices look black reflecting dans blue jacket? Are you sure this was not the white gold?

[@Stzymediaagency]

Can we just remove “period end” from the conversation.

[@finhoward7379]

we need Michael to mediate christian

[@j_a_7718]

The Tiffany nautilus was retailed by Tiffany, not patek. Hence the way it was launched.

[@nsgfields]

​@steelsteez6118 ​ LOL. Seriously boss, pull up a photo of the Latest Rolex Deep Sea, then the Omega Ultra Deep. Insert laughing emotion here: What about all these Omegas with Rainbow Saphire Bezels now. When did they ever do that? Or the Green RG Speedy with very Daytona looking sub dials and colorways. Same for the "alternative" to the green dial Daytona. Way too similar to call it a crossover. It is clearly meant to be an alternative to Rolex. Imo, just my two cents. But for fun. Pull up those pics and compare. Happy New Year Boss!

[@H_tudor]

Guys what in the damn hell is wrong with you , Sam has been on the show for a month and everybody’s judging him into the ground? Chill out man i really enjoy having him and the fact that he has grown on me in such a short time only shows me how good he’s going to be to have around for me personally. And the thing you’re forgetting is that we’ve had Michael for a couple of years on this show so we grew to love him and Sam is only a month old on here😂 I think that a lot of people will grow to love Sam as much as some of us already do #teamsam. The chemistry is off the charts just because they’re childhoodfriends

[@bakaroo23]

Great looking watch. Definitely a more attractive proposition then the Explorer II white dial for me.

[@Newerasamearea]

Underrated comment

[@jonathangraham359]

[@lcater9555]

Sam is growing on me. I’d much much rather have Sam than nothing. Loving the constant uploads. Keep up the good work.

[@samabbaticola]

Thank you for the comment, I'm working on getting better in each episode. thanks again for watching.

[@_nderscore]

Good job Sam!

[@80H_d]

I'm pretty sure the new speedy is white gold. It looks borderline but could be lighting. As a person who has owned the canopus speedy before, its low contrast is primarily why I returned it. This in steel would honestly just make me feel disappointed. An ACTUAL white dial even with silver hands is so much better than a silver dial, on white metals. Not to mention the hands are finally painted?? COME ON. I'll probably never own a white gold speedy again, but if I do, it will be one with black hands and a white dial, even if I have to cannibalize an alaska project to get it.

[@MegaIlovesandwiches]

Drink every time you hear "Period End".

[@pv6668]

Limited eddition - period end, or as i prefer to say "full stop end"

[@909reasons]

Ive a ceramic sub and a 300m diver and I really think the omega watch is much nicer built. I do prefer the bracelet on the sub but the watch itself way better

[@tradersgroove]

Where’s Michael?

[@robcameron9351]

Take a shot every time Christian says “period end”

[@markb1935]

Oh Christian, what have you done? You have made me smash an entire bottle of tequila in this video… period end. 🥴🍸

[@gustaff.weldon]

Just curious, is Michael out or are they on rotation with Sam?

[@billtodd7693]

Sam is definitely coming into his own. Great episode!

@@samabbaticola Keep up the good work, man! If I could make one small recommendation, try to throw in a few "period ends" into the mix

I wonder are Omega going to do a soft launch for the new seamaster next year?? What do you think? A new seamaster is due next year if they carry on with the trend of releasing a new version every six years.

I was sceptical at first, but this christian guy is okay... I guess... At a push.

Sorry to hear that, I understand I'm no Michael but regardless I appreciate you taking the time to watch the channel.

[@scon1425]

They did make a steel day date actually

[@Valera_Scotland]

New guy is decent. But the chemistry and humour is just not the same. It's missing that certain quality...Sorry guys. p.s. I do wonder if bringing Michael is not an option for some reason, and they had to chance cast? Who knows...And yes, I hope Omega bring out some good watches next year, but I assume they will carry on with the chunky cases, in which case, I'm out

[@underthecuffofficial]

Craig rhymes with plague, not egg. Great video! Didn’t even know this watch had dropped!

[@syktgrei]

I even bring my Aeropress when hiking. It gives me amazing coffee when I crawl out of my tent in the morning. Definitely something for The Iron Snail.

[@bbrebozo6417]

The Tiffany Patek (and the busted out nautilus) was like the black panther AP. Respected brands getting star struck and appealing to celebrities thinking it’s good advertising. The poor performance of movies shows that this celebrity luster is cooling (too much politics from that crowd). When combined with impossible to get watches, it just pisses potential customers off. When will Omega release the new white speedy?

[@RabbitWatchShop]

Keep Michael for the sole purpose of annoying those that comment with disdain
