Thanks and Merry Christmas to you, too! 🎄

[@samnova450]

Thank for sharing your collection Rob, looking forward to 2025 new watch releases.. Like the LORUS watch with luminous dial. Wish you a very happy Holiday and New Year.

[@RobtheAmerican]

Thanks for the good wishes. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year's to you, too! ...and thanks for the continued support.

[@alecleamus3280]

Nice collection, Rob. The IWC is definitely the star of the show, but overall your collection is really nicely balanced indeed. I’ve got the watch bug too badly, and would honestly love to reduce my collection to a similar size as yours. Thanks for sharing, and keep up the great work. 👍

[@RobtheAmerican]

Thanks for watching and for the kind words!

[@Sacnite-y2f]

Merry Christmas Rob awesome watches

[@greatonreviews]

Awesome!! Subscrived - Great collection! Love it! We have very similar taste!

[@RobtheAmerican]

Very good! Thanks for watching. Do we have any duplicate watches?

[@greatonreviews]

We definitely do! The Rolex Air-King, the Omega x Swatch, the Orient, and, of course, the iconic Casio Calculator. 😍😍 The Grand Seiko has been in my list for ages! I havent pulled the trigger yet! :D

[@RobtheAmerican]

Great minds think alike! 😁

[@LAbigsnoopac]

One of the best SOTC!

[@RobtheAmerican]

Thank you!

[@pilotpat86]

Great collection! Merry Christmas!

[@RobtheAmerican]

Merry Christmas to you, too! 🎄

[@velviaman3206]

The gold IWC is pure class. Interesting collection you have there.

[@RobtheAmerican]

Thank you! I knew when I was shown the vintage IWC I was doomed (in the best way!). Thanks for watching and commenting, it's much appreciated.

[@Claus-L.Mueller]

Happy Holidays, Rob! I enjoyed watching your state of collection. It’s very versatile with some pieces I don’t see often. I’m working on my 6+1 core collection at the moment. Got a Panerai from my watch dealer on Christmas Eve as a present to myself. Now there is only one piece missing. I hope I’m going to get it in the first quarter of 2025. The current state of my (core) collection is: 1. JLC Reverso Small Second mid size 2. Cartier Santos with the grey dial (WSSA0037) 3. Tag Heuer Carrera Skipper 4. Rolex Submariner 124060 5. Casio G-Shock GMW B5000V-1ER 6. Panerai PAM01350 And the one watch I’m waiting for is the Omega Globemaster with the silver dial. Best wishes, Claus

[@RobtheAmerican]

Hey Claus. Thank you for the kind words and for sharing your collection. Congrats on the new Panerai! Wear it in good health! You've got some stuff I really like including the Reverso. I looked at a pink gold Reverso with a stunning blue dial in Las Vegas that melted my heart. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and have a great New Year's coming up! Keep in touch. Rob

[@churchill24]

I got my Duckworth Prestex from Sellors in Leeds too. They had great brands and you could talk to staff. What a loss now they've moved. Some great pieces in your collection, cheers Rob.

[@RobtheAmerican]

Thanks! I used to go to Leeds specifically to go see Gavin at Sellors. Shame that.

[@Ianlongines]

IWC is the winner. She is stunning !

[@RobtheAmerican]

[@manciclon]

Corect❤🔬⌚️👍

[@oak6845]

Rob, I've been looking everywhere for the "Lorus Lumibrite" and you show yours damn! I have two "Trailmaster" and white dial Lumibrite but I want the Field Watch the most!

[@RobtheAmerican]

If you are in the UK, I just checked the Argos website, and they still have it.

[@Yorkshiremadmick]

Thanks for sharing your collection. I like the Lumeibrite Lorus. I have various pieces including a Sea Dweller 2000 my. Tudor FXD MN23 Many Seiko including a Bullhead from early 70’s A Marine Chronometer Offshore Professional To name a few. 👍🏻

[@RobtheAmerican]

You've got a great collection, too!

[@simonmakinson99]

Happy Christmas Rob, another lovely, personal video of yours. We certainly have a soft spot for Schaffhausen...and believe me, spelling that didn't come easy. Lovely collection my friend & the beauty of a collection is that we all have different tastes. If I may say, the Ingenieur is beautiful, wahy just pipped it to the post for me was you to die for, classic gold IWC. The case, shape of the glass, how watches of that era were made, slight Art Deco-ish, well, it gets me all the time. No criticism, just an observation with my personal thoughts, cheers, Simon.

[@RobtheAmerican]

Merry Christmas, Simon! 🎄

[@kbarnbrook4993]

Nice watches Rob

[@Stefan.316L]

Great collection!

[@RobtheAmerican]

Thank you!

[@mgapagnolo1819]

Nice collection Roib. From dressy, to sporty, to quirky, you have some nice pieces. I thought from your early videos you owned a Rolex Datejust. Merry Christmas.

[@RobtheAmerican]

My collection keeps changing throughout the year. Merry Christmas!

[@coopsavid8964]

I 1st met Gavin in 2017 whe he worked for Ernest Jones he turned me onto Bulover. I saw him at the CW Sellors Christmas wishes at their new place overlooking Carsington Water the day after the Manchester watch show. I am currently wearing my Monro Adventure watch purchased at Manchester. All the best for the New Year.

[@RobtheAmerican]

I got invited to the CW Sellors show, too, but couldn't get out there. Next year, hopefully!

[@savpanay5845]

Hi Rob, great content as usual. Pop into St Ann’s OMEGA I have the new Aqua Terra turquoise 😊. Sav

[@RobtheAmerican]

Hey Sav. Thanks for watching and thanks for the head's up!

[@mehmetsert6314]

Iwc pure class ❤ thanks for sharing. What’s your wrist size ?

[@RobtheAmerican]

Thanks for watching! My wrist size is approx 6 3/4 inches.

[@stevengreen471]

The IWC VINTAGE.WOW

[@RobtheAmerican]

True! It's a WOW.

[@whereRbearsTeeth]

Hello Rob, great collection with nice variety for sure. I think the IWC is definitely underrated and is a fantastic piece. My collection consists of a submariner 124060, Explorer 214270, a speedmaster 1861 hesalite, and a Doxa 300T. I love all of them, but sometimes feel like the collection is somewhat bland/boring and is lacking variety.

[@RobtheAmerican]

@@whereRbearsTeeth Big fan of the Doxa!

[@colinkilgore7347]

Any plans to acquire a new piece in ‘25?

[@RobtheAmerican]

Definitely always prowling for something new. It's the chase! Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@mosmarb]

I just bought a G-Shock with a full lume dial to replace an earlier, less legible G-Shock as my knockabout watch to wear when I'm doing something that could damage a nicer watch. They will never not be fun for me!

[@RobtheAmerican]

Big fan of the G-Shocks. Enjoy!

[@carlossanta8446]

I have about 40 watches and i have one green orient kamasu, and there is something about that watches, who have one never think about selling. That happens to me, I have major watch brands that i sold but i will never sell the orient…🤷‍♂

[@RobtheAmerican]

The Orients are way underrated imo, and so well priced for what you get.

[@snookeredinbc6017]

Iwc is better than royal oak in my opinion. I have the white one, and can afford a royal oak but I like the fit and look of the iwc better

[@RobtheAmerican]

I agree 100%. Happy New Year! 🎉

[@johngentile6814]

I know what you mean about your orient getting more attention than your upscale watches I have a Jacques lemans - inexpensive- with black sun ray dial, rose gold band and retrograde day More compliments on this than my speedmaster or rolex

[@RobtheAmerican]

On one hand, it's great the cheaper watches get more attention, and yet you want your fancier expensive ones to be appreciated!
