The pain of being a watch, knife, and gun collector is almost too much to bear...... almost.

[@richardsalinetrojr1957]

No, it is to much to bear. Lol. Gun cost really ain't that bad but ammo prices these days sucks. Damn near cost about a grand just to enjoy a couple hours at the range these days. I almost shit last time I wanted to shoot my AR chambered in .458 Socom. Ammo was anywhere from $50 to $110 for a box of 20 rounds. Needless to say I went through 3 mags and spent $150 for about 15min of enjoyment. Hell, It costs me $500+ for a 1000rds of Fiocchi Range Dynamics FMJ ammo just to practice with my .40cal EDC for about 2 hours. Granted my buddies and I did some shooting drills as well but that's BS to say the least.

[@WhuDhat]

buy we have a right to bear it, a right to bear cool shit

[@alwaysforward28]

good thing you’re not a motorcycle and car collector as well. the pain would be too much

[@chelseapeters7187]

All that's left now is to add baitcaster fishing reels n flashlights

[@CanItAlready]

Immediately i hear this in my head: "Do NOT get into watches." LOL

[@tankt1983]

You speak the truth good Sir 😂

[@timothy9596]

Watches are amazing but just like with knives, do your homework before you start purchasing anything over $500. And FYI, once you get your first nice watch, just like with knives you won't be able to stop so keep that in mind, lol. Peace

[@tankt1983]

@@timothy9596 not to mention after you have a horde of watches, your preference will change and you’re left with a bunch of watches you don’t wear anymore 😂!! Literally all of my friends who are getting into the watch collecting hobby I warn them about the mistakes I made and tell them to tread lightly 🤣!!

[@robdavis1248]

Funny thing, I am a watch guy that turned knife guy.

[@rj_ofb]

Me too. Im on my way selling my watches. Just keeping my Oris Aquis (green) and my zelos bronze. 😅

[@jasoncurtis5436]

I’m a watch guy who turned into a knife guy. My wife blames you by the way. I love my Prospex, I have the tortoise shell. Looking to get the yellow face one.

[@notme123123]

Same here, though I’ve never entered the sell phase. I just keep everything. In fact, this is as good a reason as any to swap watches. Tudor Black Bay Bronze goes back in the box, MKII Key West comes out.

[@dubester1982]

Same here! I havent worn a Seiko in years, but the Prospex line is amazing

[@timothy9596]

Same here. There's no way I'd sell any of my watches to finance a knife though, lol.

[@LarryGanz]

Back in the old days, before dive computers were a thing and watches became a backup timer, the bezel would have the first 15 or 20 minutes highlighted to be used for timing the ascent and any stops at the end of a dive. They would calculate how much time they could stay at the bottom, and set the 0 minute on the bezel to the time when ascent should begin.

[@cassidyheaton1586]

The VAST majority of people have no clue how a dive watch is meant to be used. More of a statement piece than being used. Heck, I personally know a handful of people that don't even know how to tell time from an analog watch.

[@metal_complex]

@cassidyheaton1586 I buy them because I enjoy them. I love that anyone with the funds can buy them without needing special info or having to be part of some sort of gatekeepers club. The item can be whatever the buyer wants it to be. Permission doesn't need to be granted by "the watch community". Same with knives, guns, cars, etc. Relax and live your life.

[@myklbllngsly]

I’m wearing my MM300 (SLA053) a USA exclusive limited to 500 pieces. My favorite watch for sure. They have a Monoblock case which make it a saturation diver without the need of a helium escape valve. The whole watch is hand built by Grand Seiko using a half built Grand Seiko movement. It’s also hand finished by Grand Seiko. That watch is a beast! Enjoy!

[@onewade1974]

I have this exact watch and love it. I just bought a new case and parts to customize it. The really cool part about these Seikos is that there are tons of parts available to customize it.

[@ZadiesLIVE]

Metal Complex, Yay! I liked this video so much, it made me smile!

[@D00MTR33]

For that price it better have a sapphire glass and a ceramic bezel. No Hardlex for $2200

[@metal_complex]

It is

[@D00MTR33]

@@metal_complex I thought so from the looks, but just making sure. Definitely a beautiful watch, but I'd never spend that much on one. I do love my modded Seiko though. Something iconic about their brand and the first nice watch I ever bought myself.

[@mattelness2027]

Fun fact! The marine master’s movement 8l35 is made in the grand seiko factory, and was designed originally for grand seiko. Real high end watch there. I got it in green and love it

[@D00MTR33]

I love my Seikos (not as expensive as yours) because its my first real watch and theyre a legendary company. But most of time I'm wearing Phoibos watches. I love the logo (a Chthulu head) and one of the watches has a marble carbon fiber face which I love as a knife guy and carbon fiber being my favorite material. Their quartz 1,000 meter diver is bomb proof and looks awesome (yes, i wear quartz sometimes) and the amount of features you get for the money is great. I also love my Spinnaker 40 Fathoms homage watch.

[@mainlyoctober]

Bro it’s hard to believe you’re nearly at 500k. Congrats to you!

[@wreckreationalrc7033]

Are these baby steps to a Rolex?

[@patrick6935]

It’s a gateway watch.

[@Fmf511]

I have 2 Prospexes in my collection. I really like them. Congrats on your new acquisition

[@miketesznar7711]

Hey bro what’s your grail watch? Just curious.

[@ZadiesLIVE]

Metal Complex, Your videos always brighten my day, so I subscribed!

[@metal_complex]

Thank you!

[@SCCservice]

I also collect watches and knives. I think it's the functional art that gets me excited. I hope you do more show and tell with watches in the future!

[@coleporter20]

Welcome to the Marinemaster gang🔥 you got it at a great price! One of my favorite pieces in my collection

[@ahoyt653]

I only have the one “nice” watch which is the Citizen Calibre 8700. It was 575 beans 18yrs ago. I love the eco-drive.

[@mrdoughface]

I have an eco drive that I bought at Christmas and I definitely have been loving it.

[@scottwilliams8334]

I've been wearing a Bulova for 20 years and it's never lost a second and still looks good. It's only a $200 watch, but that's good enough to tell time. I like Seiko,but I don't like really thick, heavy watches. Thin and light is my deal.

[@SharpShooterMike]

I can't wait until you get into the Tudors, Rolexes, Omega. Seiko is a solid brand. They've become extremely popular over the past few years!

[@SharpShooterMike]

Correction you've already got yourself a Tudor!

[@chelseapeters7187]

$2250?! You could of bought like.... 🤔 ...like 7 Benchmade bugouts!

[@D00MTR33]

Im the opposite because I'll never wear a metal band (unless it's maybe titanium) because of the weight and i live in the desert and they get hot. I love my strechy canvas bands, they're light, stretch with arm movements and you can switch out different ones to match your clothes.

[@mrdoughface]

I definitely feel he's not giving other bands a fair shake!

[@tankt1983]

Wow I wasn’t expecting this. I’m a watch collector venturing into the world of knives and Seiko is my go-to watch, also I’m rocking my MM200 (new version) while I clicked on this video 😂 !! Congrats on purchasing a grail watch of many collectors to include myself

[@markoi.83]

Seiko is a must-have. Although I mostly wear G-shock. Because I don't care if I mess it up. And I am yet to mess up one to the point that I have to retire it. They run like a tank. But I absolutely love Seiko!

[@FeelsGoodman2024]

Please keep making these tangential collection videos. It's great to see what other folks are getting into (rocks, watches, pokemon cards, knives, etc...).

[@alexandernewton5853]

Just bought a spring drive myself. Enjoy!

[@matthuck378]

I like both knives and watches/clocks and have basically all my life without knowing why. I also like a ton of art, architecture, engineering, etc. in general.

[@WhuDhat]

you have any grand seikos?

[@CheekyMenace]

My dad was a jeweler and watch seller for like 40 years. High end watch collectors are a strange breed. The amount some of them would spend is wild! Some would regularly come in and buy a watch for say $25k, wear it 2-3 times, then come back like two months later and trade it in towards a new watch losing many thousands in the process. And some of them would do this a few times a year!

[@prod.deathwish]

what a nice watch i myself own a seiko king samuria made in japan and i love it its my only watch that i wear

[@ZombieKid-.-]

Omg I had an Oris 15 years ago.... Thought knives were less dangerous 😂

[@thekeystonekid8687]

If you like the MM300 then you also need to try out a tuna, I've had one for 4 years and it's great. The case is referred to as a "monobloc" case. 4 seconds fast is very good, I had the same movement before and it was running 15 seconds fast so you got a good one. The bezel is only lumed to 20 for the purposes of timing a dive, I don't know the specific details though.

[@mrdoughface]

I have a small wrist so I have my eye on some JDM baby tunas, unfortunately they either have 4 series movements or are solar. The real tuna's are some of my favorite watches. Great story about how they came to be. Real tool stuff.

[@trapvandal]

One day I'll score the Seiko Marine Master Black Tuna. Seriously one of my favorite watches of all time and not that crazy expensive either sub 1500usd. For now happy with casioak for EDC and cheap citizen for dressier occasions

[@jaytree_75]

Just getting into watches and it amazes me what I already think is affordable. Compared to my knives. I have expensive knives. But I didn’t start of spending $800 on knives (I got there), whereas w Watches… went there immediately. And have a few on my radar that are 3-4k. And I haven’t gotten to 3-4k w knives yet.

[@BAMBOOZLE7]

Thanks for the watch content!

[@satisfyerpro]

Congrats, MC. That's about banger. My first hobby was watches. That is grail worthy

[@ziperian1000]

Great humble review .

[@nicholassosin6965]

I have an SPB185, similar looking, much cheaper, has a stainless bezel which I really liked. It’s a solid watch.

[@LarryGanz]

I love this watch, and although I passed it up on my way to my Rolex Deep Sea Sea Dweller, I regret not buying one. I did buy a Grand Seiko SGBX117 diver, and have the Samurai and multiple Seiko Turtles though.

[@Robin-oe8vt]

Funny thing is I was a watch guy (still am) who became a knife. So, I recognize your obsession and I match it sir!

[@kennkingg]

Watches and knifes just go together

[@pjd_113]

Seiko 5 is on my list. My first Tissot is on its way.

[@ryanellsworth5191]

Nice acquisition! Yeah I don't know what it is with watches, knives, bags, multi tools, and accessories and gadgets in general but I think if you like one of them chances are you like or will like all of them in time you just haven't gotten around to it yet😅 I don't know much about watches either except I have always liked them, and if you like chunky watches Ive got a rotund one for you. fairly recently I acquired an Invicta Reserve 0.43 carat diamond and mother of pearl dial Limited anniversary edition #022/300 model# 28884 I'm trying to let go of. If the urge for more handworn horolog hails you!

[@Tusk2001]

Also a watch guy. Thanks for uploading this vid!

[@BrianJones-es4ex]

I'm not into watches, but got a basic black on black on black Seiko Srpd79

After you purchased the Pelagos you said that was your grail watch and I commented that there is always a new grail Well well here we are lol!

[@blackadder1966]

I've always been into firearms and knives, I could easily get into watch collecting, too. Lately, i am trying not to be so materialistic, resisting the urge to buy shlt I dont really need.

[@seanroberts4541]

I'm a knife/watch enthusiast too. It wouldn't hurt my feelings to see watch content on your channel... Jus sayin

[@astrofeeder777]

all of the dive watches tend to be thick af. i own the swiss precimax deep dive pro and its one of the much bigger watches you can find by nature of its 1000m water resistance. unfortunately it seems swiss precimax no longer makes watches and their domain is gone so all you can find anymore are cheap fakes and used listings.

[@jag1099]

Watch guy here, who also is in to knives and guns…no wonder I’m always broke. Ha! Good job mixing in something new on your channel!

[@douglasdauntless]

[@mrdoughface]

I love that watch! However, I note that your watch collection has less variety than your knife collection. I feel like at this point you are allowed a rubber strap(even if you've decided you don't like them😂) or a badass field watch.

​@@metal_complexLol, the most expensive watch I own is a $250 one that I thought was crazy to buy but I never wear it anymore because I got a smart watch and it has my text and stuff come through so while I am working I don't have to have my phone out.

Awesome looking Seiko. Seiko make some amazing pieces. My grail Seiko is the Titanium Grand Seiko 9ST1A Tourbillon which I'll more than likely never be able to afford. Lol. If you're ever in the market for another Seiko check out Long Island Watch Company. Mark is a great guy to work with and he usually has the more hard to find Seiko models. There's only one watch I want and I've been waiting for months for it to come back in stock. I really want to add the Formex Essence 39 with the wine colored dial to my collection. Saw it in stock just before Christmas and I decided to pass on it for a few weeks just to see it sadly sell out a few days before I was gonna pull the trigger on it. I have a Formex Essence 41 with the green milled dial and I absolutely love it, but it's just a tad to big for my wrist. When I saw the wine colored dial Essence 39 I immediately fell in love and It will be on my wrist as soon as I see it back in stock.
