Reacting To Your Watch Collection Videos: The Omega Bond Should Have Chosen + G-Shock, Tudor & More

Today's video is the start of a new series that you can be a part of! After being a guest on one of Italy's top watch channels, I was inspired to start a new review & reaction series for the Urban Gentry audience to share your personal watch collection videos with me and other enthusiasts. In this first episode we'll take a look at 4 very different collection videos, and my reaction to each, including interesting watches from Omega, Tudor, Grand Seiko, G-Shock, Cartier, Breitling, Panerai, and more. Thank you to the following people for their fantastic submissions: Delboy from London, England, Klaus from Western Germany, Paolo from Monza, Italy, and D from Pittsburgh, USA.

[@Subcomandante73]

I think this video sums up why I sub to this channel. No flex. No snobbery. Real enthusiasm for watches at all prices.

[@KullySK]

Completely agree! So easy to make this into clickbaity content, but it's the positivity that always makes me come back.

[@giovannipunto8058]

Exactly

[@michaelpfister9960]

Yes!

[@fabiolombardo2914]

I'm a a huge fun of this format. I've watched all the episodes of Davide Cecchini "i contatori del tempo", included the episode with you as a guest star (by the way, awesome crossover). I like the fact that you took ispiration from that, and doing so i can enjoy this format also from your point of view and from an international prospective. I'm going to enjoy this so much.. Grazie, thank you both!

[@trigger-tok]

I absolutely adore it when channels create these videos. It's such a delight to witness genuine individuals sharing their collections and the stories behind each and every timepiece.

[@localheroEd]

You can feel the energy and enthusiasm for watches, collecting and the community all the way through, great stuff. Other channels watch and learn! Onwards and upwards, Ed

[@klausm5460]

Thank you so much for the great idea to give us the opportunity to share our watch experiences! It was great fun. Not so easy to get the quality right with a mid-range phone and living room lighting, though! 😬And the awkward effect of cutting the video with all those watch dials running and hands jumping in the frame. 😂 BTW, apart from individual choices and obviously multiple taste influences, watching the channel for 6 years surely has an effect on one´s preferences. 😜 Thanks again, O&U Cheers, Klaus

[@TKIAP]

Klaus, what was the name of the milanese branded strap on the bambino? that was awesome

[@klausm5460]

@@TKIAP Vollmer, a German brand from the traditional watch and jewelry town Pforzheim.

[@TKIAP]

@@klausm5460 thank you

[@alvinmick218]

This is pure genius! Every single collection was pure class and every collector brilliantly introduced their collection and explained why they were drawn to collecting the pieces they did. It was fascinating to see such tremendous watches. TGV, this was very entertaining and very inspirational. Very well done!!🥃

[@michaelriera6277]

Agreed 100 %

[@Kompyutershchik]

I speak English and Italian, much like yourself, and I absolutely adore that you're introducing Davide Checchini's format to your channel. Your distinctive style and the affection from your subscribers truly warm my heart. Cheers!

[@HobbyOfHours]

Kudos to all the collection contributors. Such a pleasure to be counted among you!

[@prescottlange]

"Pure Class" ribbon 😂🤣...nice touch. Or should I say- pure class 🤺

[@zward0522]

More videos like this, please! I really enjoy seeing other people's collections, as well as TGV's pure enthusiasm for watches.

[@stefanotattifrongia3612]

Finally Tristano! I’m a great fan of Davide, I’m sure that you will reach a bigger audience. He made 2/3 videos per week of 40minutes minimum and is just Italian collectors. Now I’m going to have double weekly video of collections 😂

[@FraDenti]

Vedremo se ci saranno anche il doppio di ciofeche, accrocchi, ecc.🤣

[@stefanotattifrongia3612]

@@FraDenti chissà. Tristano ha un bacino d’utenza grandissimo secondo me si può permettere di scartare certe collezioni. Detto ciò mi sorprende come ci siano tanti collezionisti di orologi in Italia dato che Davide pubblica 2/3 video alla settimana da più di due anni 😂

[@spookmineer]

This is so fun! Looking forward to loads more of these collection videos.

[@JP-ly7yp]

Such a great idea! Love seeing other people’s collections and both their backstory and your take on them. This was such a refreshing and cool way to get the TGV family of loyal viewers involved. My watch journey really started by watching you years ago. Thanks for all you do man. Onwards & Upwards!

[@animusfault]

Love this content! Good to hear from other fellow viewers and see their collection in video format!

[@Javi_C]

A great series TGV! Hope to see more of these!

[@Fret-knot]

Wow, what a cracking start to this new series. Well presented & some lovely watches, to boot!

[@simonwright6882]

Love this format, fantastic to have a peek into other collections.

[@pompeylad1977]

Great video, really enjoyed that with all the info from both, love TGV vids and these series are really good.

[@dennisthespeedmenace7530]

Loved every bit of this TGV! Makes your work simple and every watch collectors dream to see others watch collectors collections. I’d love to see more.

[@Number_006]

Great fun TGV enjoyed your commentary quite a lot, let's hope they keep 'em coming!

[@jimmyscott3056]

I love this type of content. Really interesting seeing others collections, their choices and reasons for buying. Hope to see more of this.

[@monti1263]

More of this please! I enjoyed that so much. Thank you TGV and thank you everybody who send a video!

[@PushTheStart]

Absolutely love this series idea! Bravo! 👏 Would love to see more. Lots of great ideas too 😉

[@freesneaky]

I have been incredibly busy and was not able to pay attention on watch collecting journey of my own. However, it is always a pleasure to view others collection and listen to their stories. I appreciate the watch community you created and loving this new series. Keep it up TGV!

[@NicholasSpinelli-ej9gr]

Love your videos great concept looking forward to more of your videos

[@mitchblackmore5230]

These are the type of watch collectors I like. Genuine enthusiasts that buy watches that THEY like, not what they hope will impress other people. The last guy shows of a gazillion dollar Omega and a Cartier, and then whips out a $40 dollar Casio. I love it. (Note: I know those two watches aren't actually in the gazillion dollar category, but considering what I would pay for a watch, they might as well be.)

[@kjeldpedersen666]

Hi TGV What a marvelous idea. Great inspiration to see some of the viewers collections and hear your comments. A great addition to the channel. Must find the time to make a presentation of my collection as soon as possible😊 Keep up the good work👍

[@GuyVanderAa]

I really enjoyed this video. Pure class. So much positive energy from the watch community. I’m hoping you’ll do this on a regular basis.

[@wadeharmon1539]

A great video! Definitely add this format into the rotation. As always, thanks.

[@khronokraze]

Very cool and great to see the collections and your reactions to them. I hope you continue with this.

[@maxeisenhardt5907]

Love the format!!! Great video TGV, keep them comming please!!!

[@Claus-L.Mueller]

Hi TGV! Nice to see another “Claus/Klaus” presenting his collection. But it wasn’t me! 😉 Best wishes, Claus

[@mihaimarin89]

Loved the video! Can't wait for the next one!!

[@DavideCecchini]

Great job mate! DC approved. 😁Love!

[@theurbangentry]

Mille grazie 👊 LOVE. T.

[@KullySK]

As if we needed another reason to keep coming back for more Gentry content! Loved the first of this series, and brilliant submissions from the guys. I also genuinely enjoy the passion and positivity that always comes across in your videos, TGV. Tempted to submit a few from my comparably humble collection too!

[@megasoid]

What a great idea for a segment, excellent content and nice to hear from 'on the ground' enthusiasts in their own words. Well done TGV.

[@jeremycorrao]

Loved them all! Great video my friend! Cheers!

So good 👍 ...pt 2 popped up on my timeline ..time to binge watch

[@fabiolosanto2799]

I love this format. Great Davide and great TGV. Love 👊

[@chadmercer3995]

Such an awesome segment. Love this channel. Well done 👍

[@edmiller873]

Fantastic episode! I am speechless. A great change of pace. You really brought the channel to a new level. An unintended side effect may be the lowering of your checking account 😊.

[@crespohuerta]

I hope you know how important you are to a whole generation of watch collectors, in 2017 I was buying fashion whatches until i stumbled on your SKX video, in that moment my life changed, i have gotten my grail watch, then I sold it when i lost my job, but I have always been here, always learning not just but about horology but about culture and good maners in general. Greetings from México TGV, hope your channel and FB Group never end.

[@markbowman7240]

a truely great and fun video seeing everyones collections ..bravo what a fantastic idea heres to many more

[@shirishpanwalkar]

Nice episode! We would love to watch more such content. 👍👍

[@Shailen825]

Be calm and enjoy the show 😌 love the series! Pure class!

[@RolandDigsIt]

I love seeing the collections of others. I'm tempted to send a video of my watch collection but I don't want your jaw to drop at the large amount of 1980's Muppets themed watches I own. ⌚⏱😆

[@HobbyOfHours]

Would love to see it. Tell me you've got a Guy Smiley watch and I'm in.

[@RolandDigsIt]

@@HobbyOfHours Unfortunately NO. He was awesome though. I have a bunch of normal-ish watches. Tudor, GS, Casio, Seiko and so on that I talk about on my channel.

[@simonbarnett9773]

This was such a fun way to watch watches. Great new formula TGV. I am super inspired by the viewers' collections. You have also been a huge influence on my collecting. I have 3 watches you reviewed in my watch box, as I type and you will be pleased to hear they all get lots of wrist time. My video skills are just rubbish, so though I would love to share some of the contents of that box, I think I would rather watch the more skilled viewers show what's in theirs!

[@ElderPinto254]

stunning love to see this !!!

[@lancemlormand]

I’m guessing this will be a new standard for the channel. Great stuff peaking inside others watch boxes and getting a sense of their personal style and the balance of collection.

[@brunet181]

This is it, I need to send in a few videos of my collection lol! great idea!!
