Mad Watch Collector - State Of The Collection - SOTC 2021

[@theurbangentry]

Flipping wonderful Russell. I really like how you did the "best of" section at the end. A very clever and logical addition to the SOTC format. I might have to nick it myself ;-) Awesome collection my friend and thank you for taking the time to share this. Onwards and upwards. T.

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

T! Thank you for watching a long one!!!;) I think when most reviewers get to the end filming their collection they are done in!!! So don’t think about adding bits like that! I on the other hand was a gluten for punishment! Feel proud after those kind words! Stay safe my friend!

[@rhettbaldwin2148]

Nice one Russ! ... the collection is coming along nicely. Ive got a few of these and couldn't agree more! Re the speedy, Id agree with a few others, go the professional. Size wise its doable with our sized wrists. I just sold my beloved speedy triple date MK40 (hodinkee). awesome watch and such unique colors, great complications etc ... I already miss it :-(. The 39mm size was good, but at times it did wear small (usually after wearing larger pieces) .. another 1-2mm wider and 1-2mm thinner and it would have stayed for ever! .. but instead its going into the fund for the next grail piece. Ride on MWC!

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

Thank you SF! What’s the grail you are after??;) Yeah I think I’m going down the pro Speedy route!!!

[@rhettbaldwin2148]

@@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR for attainable grail pieces ... I'm looking at birth year tudor snowflake sub (1978), or a Pepsi GMT. Or if I really behave/torture myself I was going to have a crack at knocking of a proper grail piece e.g. Rolex Sub Smurf.

[@NicolasLakoff]

Great SOTC, I'm really enjoying your content so far. One thing that you may or may not know about the Arnie original the H558-5009. Schwartznegger wore it in 5 of his movies and it was his personal watch. He first wore it in Terminator (1984) and actually James Cameron who directed him in that movie also has one. He subsequently wore it in Commando (1985), Raw Deal (1986), Predator (1987) and Twins (1988). His wearing the watch greatly helped the popularity of the watch and the success of this model for Seiko. It is also horologically important as it is the first Ani-Digi watch in the world. I personally have the SNJ029 from the Urban collection (tan strap with black shroud, bezel and dial with superb cream batons instead of dots, super comfy tan strap, love, love, love this watch), which for my money is the best of the for reissues, but that's just me!!

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

Thanks Nicolas!! Absolutely!! Great history! Take a look at my SNJ025 review;)

Brilliant collection mate! That Fortis is gorgeous and your Grandads Rolex is a thing of beauty, probably won't see another like it in the wild.

However, this is definitely next on my bucket list, it reminds me of my favourite Drink IRN-BRU 🤣

[@MyRetroWatches]

Cracking collection and very well put together video. 1980 is hardly vintage mate! I will see what I have kicking around in my to do pile, I might have a 1980 Seiko. Wow your grandads Rolex is just killer! that patina is well earned by decades of use. Quality. Oh and if you want a Willard without the pricetag get a Steeldive 1970 as they are amazing for £80! I dont really do homage but had to pick one up and was shocked at how good it is.

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

Thanks for watching Mike! Hahahahaha well I feel vintage nowadays!! Well I’ve just seen a Seiko Quartz Alarm from May 1980 they were showing off!;) very nice ! I was lucky to have a subscriber send me a SteelDive Willard and like a lot of times with these homages, I was pleasantly surprised ;)

Great collection Russell, way too many for me though. I like the fortis best . Busy dial but a beautiful piece. If you want a no problem real vintage piece go for a tag heuer formula one chronograph ca1212-1. They have them in white black red blue and yellow dials. At 38mm they are a fantastic wear and look so unique. I've worn so many watches over the years, but these tags have a really special feel and an instant kerb appeal. And the president bracelets are so comfortable. The black plastic bezels are really different than anything else out there. I absolutely love mine and being a quartz , it's an easy daily wearer. Rado are another amazing Swiss brand that are overlooked. The original diver is amazing, just so well made and bullet proof. The captain cook is also very light , especially on the leather deployment watch strap, you wouldn't believe it's an automatic., you can get them in various sizes now , which is great. As for a speedie I would go for the original design one with all white hands, maybe get an auto because some are hand winding , and hesalite glass, although sapphire is better in a way, but I do think hesalite are more charming, just like yourself fella !!!

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

I've got to say that you have an amazing taste :) SPB143 is one of my "grails" currently, such a wonderful, classy watch, and also the Stowa Flieger Klassik (not sure if I'll ever be able to afford either though). BTW, before the SPB, the position of a "grail" used to be occupied by the BB58, but for some reason this Seiko just works better for me (but of course I have to handle both to know for sure). Enjoying your channel, cheers from Russia!

[@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR]

John! Thank you so much for watching my friend! Appreciate that! Like me you love vintage watches made modern!;) although the BB58 is on another level to the SPB, they both are fantastic. The dimensions on the Tudor are perfect for me. With the SPB you still get the same sweep as a 7s26 (SKX, Seiko 5) just with a longer power reserve . For that , the Tudor is far superior . Still hasn’t stopped me from getting one though!;)

[@alexc.3727]

@@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR they surely are in different weight classes. I think I just like the SPB's hands a tiny bit more than Tudor's. Spec-wise (again, I haven't handled the watches, so my opinion is solely based on what Professor Google and fellow watch enthusiasts can tell me about them), SPB looks like a perfect upgrade compared to my SKX007. Still wouldn't sell the SKX, although it seems to me that its price is going to be comparable to the SPB's in a couple of years :)
