From £20 To £2000 Here's The Best 10 Watches Of 2024

[@Edu2503]

That blue dial titanium Seiko is GORGEOUS

[@tropicthndr]

Meh, get the Seiko Miyota movement in blue Dial with the “San Martin” at even better price.

[@Edu2503]

@tropicthndr I'd prefer the Seiko, though.

[@mattkinsella9856]

Your wife is actually not too wrong and she might be the logical voice of reason we all need! It was her remarks about the Seiko GMT that was so spot on, their bracelets really do let down a lot of their watches.

[@Trapvision3D]

Your wife is undefeated 😂😂😂😂 A Transformers eyeball is hilarious 😂

[@leebusby7967]

I purchased the Vulcain skin diver earlier in the year, couldn't be happier with it

[@Trapvision3D]

I'm not familiar with the Vulcain, but after your exciting description, it feels like I've just been pushed down the rabbit hole of "get it now"!😮😂

[@maxlvledc]

I look away for a few months and your at 264K!!! So incredibly proud of your hard work! Well deserved.

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

That means a lot my friend thank you!!

[@BForbes-cd3ck]

Totally agree. Love your channel. Mixing great knowledge and watch insight in a style that makes me smile! The best of a very good bunch!! 🫡

[@Saelestria-jd3uq]

I was at work today and I could have swore I saw a guy much older than me wearing a Casiotron. You gotta see it to believe it!

[@MichaelEngel55]

Wishing Mr Pagani a merry xmas and a happy new year!

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

He does to!

[@suheilkaspar8885]

Loved the Formex

[@joewhite6875]

The wife is a comedic genius. Unintentionally or not.

[@webmasterbate]

hey man, at first I don't like your videos - you have waaay too much energy, feels like my brain on 4 shots of espresso, but you slowly grew into me as your videos kept popping up as youtube suggestions, and now when I watch other watch review channels they are so boring compared to yours. my wife also agree with your wife's opinions on watches so high five haha! keep up the good work bud!

[@capnemo6576]

God bless you and your wife 🙏🏻

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

Thank you my friend!

[@user-iz9co4qf6z]

The bronze Vertex case is next level

[@tosushil]

That Vulcane is amazing 😍

[@chrisgilling1977]

Love your channel but time to review Hanhart . Less mainstream but with the military heritage that you love . All the best, Chris Gilling .

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

I’ve tried to connect a couple of times my friend. Will try again next year

[@GazH-bz8fu]

Have a great Xmas and new year - looking forward to your reviews in 2025 - thanks MWC ❤

[@markhyde7217]

The seiko gmt and speed timer are my favourites but that monta is an absolute stunner ! Merry Christmas fella

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

And you Mark!!!

[@jackdaw3173]

1st off your seiko landmaster is the best watch of all time..." what the wife said" was one of the funniest ive heard! lol merry christmas to you and the family Russ!

[@adiazim5098]

Brilliant!!! Your wife is completely spot on , again!😂

[@spencemiller9301]

All cracking choices on the top ten (in my opinion). I think my favorite of the bunch is the Monta. Loved the comment from the Mrs. "Making me think of cigarettes" for the Vulcain. If it didn't before, I think about cigarettes now for that Vulcain. 🌞 Great job, as per normal.

[@thetattedpharmacist3215]

My top 5 purchases of 2024: Squale Y1545 grey dial and bezel on bracelet, Squale 1521 black dial, blasted case on blasted mesh bracelet, my pre-owned Hamilton Ventura Elvis80 on bracelet, Seiko SPB155 “Baby Alpinist” and finally my two Erebus Ascents. Honourable mentions to Erebus Origin 38mm in hot pink dial with SS bezel insert and my Erebus Origin GMT, polar/pepsi variant ❤

[@styleemusic]

Just picked up an abl-100we Casio retro, my watch of the year.

[@frontbum]

Your wife needs her own channel!! Brilliant

[@gerrytemple5044]

Beautiful Russ - great fun! And great watches! My favourite of the year is the silver and blue Bulova Computron which I haven't understood and therefore not appreciated for so long. At around 180 £ it's the best retro-scifi watch out there imho with a great history to it. Cheers mate, I love you 💙

[@verykeen2please]

Good to see vertex, former and Monta. on the list.

[@stu632]

All great, Vertex amazing, Cricket outstanding and I need to get a Pogue I think. Thanks for a great year of watch fun MWC, you surpassed my 250 prediction way back in Jan 👊👍

[@steveakka]

"Fairground vibes" 🤣🤣🤣👍

[@ge48421]

I have been wearing (and scratching up) the Casio TRN50-2A since it came out. It’s not the perfect watch but it wears very well.

[@rayray..3349]

GREAT CHRISTMASS Stay SAFE

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

Top lad! Thank you Ray! All the best to you and yours!

[@anthonystevens8683]

I confess I have to agree with your wife................................................................ on her verdict of the Vertex. It's the number one... that is also the number one on your list as well. A result!

[@ninjasrose1653]

Why does your wife's comments make perfect sense in my head lol Especially comparing the Vulcain to cigarettes. For some reason I know exactly what she means haha! The dial on the blue Seiko is serious! And I am now looking into that Momentum watch as well. Great stuff MWC!

[@Notts_Gaz]

Great video mr mwc, transformers eyeball that’s brilliant, 😂 if it hasn’t got a nickname already you should name it Optimus. I really like that vertex since owning the m-hkr I see these nato strapped field watches in a whole new light, never interested me b4 now I love them. 👍🏻

[@k.iskandar]

Whats the model number for that Seiko, Russ? I love that dial!

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

Sla071

[@eternalmemri]

Amazing show Russ. Always a pleasure to listen in the car! You gotta get TGV’s Hanhart Preventor in for review!!! what an amazing watch for the money

[@anthonywhelan1446]

Great vid!! Loved it! and your wife is a legend 🎉

[@andybarrons323]

Great video. I love that Vulcain diver. Wonderful vintage dial. But, yes, it is very flat and cigarettey. 😁

[@johnstyron6543]

Wow!! Fantastic collection Russell. I guess it’s an honorable mention, but I have to say I have Spitfire Envy!!! And I don’t think that one has any squid teeth!! 😝😅🤠

[@patrickhartmann1540]

The wife was spot on!

[@Time2WatchUK]

The manga series i need to get! But ebay prices are crazy!

[@stuartdavies7351]

Hey Russ - I have the Momentum Sea Quartz 30 and an M1 Splash in my collection. I’m still waiting to take delivery of the UDT which I purchased last month. Happy Xmas to you and ‘the wife’. 🎅🏻

[@markbowman7240]

been some great watches this year russel of all price ranges ..my 2 favorites are the cricket and the vulcain skin diver

[@Ben-bs4od]

Not enough reviews of Herbelin Newport. And watches from Charlie Paris. Hidden French gems

[@xusiaxod6255]

You know what. I can actually see what the wife sees. She isn't wrong really.

[@robertoravazzolo6202]

I love your video style! I hope you can do a top ten

[@george88pizza43]

Wow! Youve nearly got 25million views overall Russ! Incredible stuff 🎉

[@glassworksrc]

Been eyeing up that Seiko Field GMT for a while now, found one for £329 so pulled the trigger :)

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

Good price!!

[@eliarthur7088]

Being a big guy, I just wish Seiko made the SSK023 in a 42mm size (like a new Rolex Explorer 2)

[@mikldude9376]

I like both the Casios , though I’m one of the old farts with so so eyes 🥸, I’d probably go with the easy to read unit , although the Casiotron looks very cool😊. Of the analogue style I always prefer numbered easy to read dials , so your number one also looked super cool to me . I liked the zero west too , And the Vulcain Cricket with the see through back ….. super cool ! 😎

[@MadMax76er]

Still waiting for Vertex to release that stretchy bracelet for the 40mm

[@GapBahnDirk]

The Seiko SLA071 is a stunner! 👍👍

[@seabiscuit726142]

Just bought the Formex Reef bronze in 42mm.

[@thetattedpharmacist3215]

Also, have coming but won’t arrive til 2025, a Casiotron as well, picked it up for less than £375 on Aussie dollar equivalent ❤

[@timothybecker8360]

Have you heard of the traska venturer gmt?? Plans to even review maybe?

[@joeservice1968]

I do like that seiko

[@DirectorLJ]

What's the model number of the Seiko!?

[@wisamal-hakim5531]

Loved the wife comments. Which is your pick out of the Formex and the Monta? Loved that Seiko with ‘a lot of metal’

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

Ooooooo that’s hard ! Probably the Formex as it’s a diver and I’m more a dive watch bezel guy!;)

[@CameronM47]

Sounds like the wife is only a few more first thoughts away from being a watch person herself.

[@ILoveWordPress]

I think the blue Seiko is this: Seiko Prospex Landmaster 30th Anniversary Limited SLA071 SBDX059.

[@Spitt102]

The Transformer's Eyeball is number 1 for me!

[@joejh42]

got the seiko ssk023 for my daughter. liked it so much that I got one for myself.

[@honeybadger9672]

Vertex, may as well be Smiths but Smith's are clearly cheaper. If we accept China made then may as well go with Baltany and put the rest of the money to better use. 🤔

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

You do you brother. I need more than the sum of its parts. I need a watch with a story, with a meaning for being made. Not just because there’s a gap in the market for making cheap dirty dozen lookalikes!! I love Smiths, they aren’t Swiss made nor I they made with the same materials and manufactured in the same place as Vertex watches. That is reflected in the price. Smiths now are very well made watches, I’d go for the closest one that resembles the Deville ! The watch that went up Mount Everest!;) or a W10!

[@henryperez606]

Seiko watches, have personality

[@ajithprdeep2855]

Where is the link 😮 Like this video from india ❤🇮🇳

[@edwinandianeutube]

hi russ, great review & comments again! i’m also in love with Vertex, but feel the price is a little high. btw, i’d love to sell you my Seiko M516-4009 “Ghostbusters” Watch OR trade? happy to send you link. Ed

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

Wow!!! For sure I’m interested my friend! Give me an email and we can talk more! [e-mail]

[@theshadowman1398]

It’s amazing but I only the mechanical seiko’s look like they are worth buying

[@GenjoKoan75]

What is the model of the blue dial Seiko please?

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

SLA071

[@erosqing]

I've been using a Vostok Komandirskie GMT full lume wich is a blast for the 150€ I've paid for it. The bracelet is a pain, with to sharp edges but with a Nato or an aftermarket jubilee it is my main watch for the last month. Maybe you can get one for the new year, I'm sure it will make you smile.

[@typerightseesight]

I got the grb300 this year it's a fantastic cheap mrgb1000🎉

[@ilkerdiler8074]

Have you seen the black and gold version of TRN-50, Mr. MWC?

[@adk7962]

How dare you come up with a 10 ten list of your favorite watches you reviewed on your channel?! Don’t you know how important I am?! 😅 Thanks for a great year of content. I don’t really do homages anymore, but if someone came out with a homage of that Casiotron… just sayin’…

[@stephenmorrissey1254]

What is the type of the cheap G shock?

[@mikldude9376]

Just looked at one I believe to be the same unit , it’s listed as Casio AE1500WH-1 I think if you change the last number in the model no. To 2 it gives you the blue colored variation . I hope that helps .

Don't like skin divers but that Vulcain is a stunner as is the Cricket! Can't stand the Manga watches Russ 😂. Would love a Vertex M100 one day.

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

Dale! Appreciate it matey. I’m just looking over a years worth of watches and yes. The Mangas wouldn’t be my first choice when it comes to choosing a G! But 2 big institutions from Japan collabing, it was a cool design!;)

[@haourss]

Those Vulcans and Formex! And the Zero West!I KNOW the wife will give positve comments. Not gonna fast fwd the video. Edited: Oh no.
