are you saying alpine-ist on purpose its driving me nuts this is something i can definitely imagine you doing

[@samthurgood]

Sheesh. Yes

[@j3r3me]

Zero punctuation and run-on sentences drive me nuts.

[@jagdeshbirdi]

Literally came to comment the same thing 😂

[@altonstrose]

Me too 😬

[@douglascheesman]

It’s absolutely intentional. Get in with the LOLZ

[@shawnholloway2410]

I don’t know what I like more, the watch content or the fashion. One day you have to do a video showcasing your sweater/sweatshirt collection. Great job!

[@deskdiver]

I second that!

[@mattmerc]

I see Youre Terrific post....I click......I see Alpinist.....I click faster.

[@jorgsofi]

Very nice mountaneering watch from Seiko. I'd love to see Oris make a mountaineering watch. Great review, as always.

[@naveenkataria661]

"But I roll natural" line cracked me up 😂😂

[@ClayneBanks]

Perfect for the night time. Great content.

[@georgeearling905]

Absolutely, It's not just about owning a beautiful wristwatch but also understanding the market trends. Consulting a wristwatch investment specialist or a financial advisor with expertise in alternative investments can help navigate the complexities and ensure you make informed decisions.

[@sebastiaanthijn7982]

Investing in a luxury watches can be an exciting but intricate financial decision. The value of these watches can appreciate over time, making them potential assets. However, maintenance costs and depreciation should be considered.

[@BraddPaisley]

Absolutely. I recently engaged with a Top advisory firm that specializes in connecting individuals with top-tier financial advisors. Despite not directly managing assets, their unique approach has significantly impacted my financial trajectory.

[@cherylhills3227]

That's remarkable! What is the firm name? How did you come across this financial advisory firm and how does their matching process work.

[@BraddPaisley]

I discovered *Folmar Advisory* through online search of the name. Their commitment to client satisfaction and financial education is impressive. They connect clients with advisors who align with their goals and values.

[@MaartenAnna]

Ooof... that black one is STUNNING!

[@williamsullivan3967]

Your Mt Hood math amused me. Thanks Evan!

[@gonzalograjeda7389]

It’s nice to see someone actually acknowledging the Red Alpinists. I have the SCVF005 and the SARB017, and I can confidently say that the older SCVF is the better watch, with great proportions and design. Good video Evan.

[@GXF2695]

Thank for this! My favorite seiko and my latest purchase (SPB 121), literally my dream watch. Everything on your 7inch wrist look amazing. Cheers! 🇧🇷

[@kiwigrey]

I like your style. And especially your way of talking about the timepieces. You've earned my subscription. 😊 keep it up.

[@spooksmagee]

The SPB121 was my first ever watch. I still wear it weekly and it's been with me halfway around the world now. I'd recommend it to anyone.

[@motoriety]

The Alpinist was one of the first pieces I latched onto during my "watch awakening", but I quickly moved on to other, flashier models. When the new GMT version came out though, the fire was rekindled, and during a recent trip to Japan I bought the SBEJ005 -- the JDM model with a green dial. It's a little chunky on my six-and-a-quarter-inch wrist, but I love it to bits and have worn it so often that I'm thinking about downsizing my collection.

[@ldr8276]

Great content presented hilariously well. Bravo.

[@howdepressing2495]

is it al-pin-nist or al-pine-ist

[@jonahb2149]

Great question, maybe YT is actually pronouncing it right in the video 🤔

[@itsshanesmith]

PIN!

[@schweepy_g]

I think it's al-pin-ist.

[@danbash]

He’s doing a bit

[@schweepy_g]

@@danbash oh for sure.

[@WatchChris]

Awesome video. I really like all black watches esp these seiko black editions. But for some reason im not a fan on wrist of the full black look.. off wrist i figgin love them... Idk... great video!

[@hilberto2217]

Really like the look of the black edition one

[@wigmaster7894]

Perfect for night time alpining

[@p.9608]

I have a Ninja-Turte and so wear it a lot from the beginning - the black coating does look nearly new despite its age. Its hold up even better then the regular Turtle.

[@marcosanthernandez]

The alpinist was my first watch and it’s still my favorite, it’s like if the explorer was actually meant to be used 😂

[@BillyBurch]

Greetings from Javier's in north Portland! Also a Seiko lover and still have my SARB017. Keep it up

[@atlanticrocktimes]

Great video! I do like my SARB017 though... I just can't get my head around the cyclop crystal...

[@Wahlrusberg]

That blackout one perfectly encapsulates the problem with Seiko repositioning itself as a more premium brand. If ten years ago they added a tacky little number like that to the catalogue for $350, well it's just a bit of fun. Now they make a big fanfare about limited editions and charge money that's knocking on the door of real watches...it's just not cute anymore, they're taking themselves entirely too seriously.

[@hermobacongan3797]

I owned one of the Night Vision as well. This got more wrist time than my Tudor BB36 champagne dial. 😅 the matte finish of SPB337 is FTW

[@esiriel]

wait, did I laugh out loud 4 times while watching a watch review ? that's me clicking subscribe sir !

[@stanL9]

I feel exactly the same way about Citizen like you do with Seiko. Below 2000$ is my happy place too 😊 And I never want to be a serious collector

[@Comotellamas131]

Terrific. Thank you!

[@vaclav_fejt]

I also have a Seiko "Alpineist", one without the superfluous compass. It's the best "Alpineist" - for me.

[@Anonymous-yb1ho]

Finally a watch I can afford an own. Seiko Presage Style 60s GMT next 🥺 One day I’ll have a grand seiko I promise

[@WatchesCanBeFun]

I like the Chonky and quartz gmt Alpinist.

[@demonstructie]

Those green lume filled cathedral hands on the night vision remind me of those Poljot Buran chronographs. In fact one of those would look sick if you could get it ceracoted

[@nikonneer741]

Alpinist - My first Seiko mechanical watch, sold it after 8 months of use because for every month it's always 5 to 8 minutes ahead. Then I realize this is normal for 6R movement. Alpinist, they look cute but the movement is not for everyone.

[@jacobt1027]

5 mins a month is like 10 secs a day. p decent for a basic non chronometer movement. just reset it daily/weekly

[@junaidmogal1081]

​@@jacobt1027 Do we have to adjust it on Regular basis? I mean weekly is ok but daily? Do we not have any infinite solution for it?

[@ffxsam]

Sounds like quartz movements are a better fit for you.

[@pyruvicsynthase5879]

do you still own that superocean or did you sell it?

[@ronnienes]

I’m definitely a Happy Seikoist for a large part of my (not large) collection

[@visibleinvisible7850]

Not as important, but where did you get the sweatshirt from? I dig it.

[@theenavybluemonster]

The Night Vision is calling your name.

[@Stanjara]

All pianist watches??? I see you dude.

[@LBenn302]

Gorgeous watches.

[@Tdr-jv2nc]

Have you seen the new Seiko srpk87? It looks like the sort of thing you would love

[@EdwinNikkels]

@seiko Drop de X from the dial and I'm in. And that counts for all ProspeX watches. Thanks!

[@TarekMidani]

I came here for the alpinist. I left for the alpine-ist

[@Ekis86]

I love my sarb017 and my Hodinkee Blue Alpinist. Love the video too. And I bet you can choose, but I've never heard it be called AlpinEist before. I'm on team Alpinist all day long. What do you guys think?

[@raydoetnietmee]

Why oh why did Seiko have to make the date wheel white. It totally messes with the green/gold scheme and is magnified by the... well magnifier (which in itself I dig)

[@NotThatSlow]

This video caused me to put on my SARB017 today.

[@user-wk6qd7yg1j]

Thank you so much kkuwan for taking us shopping🛍…my wish list just got longer🤦♀

[@BroBrucs]

Good investment buying the black one right now?

[@salty5402]

Seiko has figured out how to maximize sales and profitability - despite the grumbling of collectors. Which shows we are the smaller part of the market for them - and all brands.

[@LamarFaciane]

I have the Baby Alpinist on the bracelet and it's Seikoholic nirvana!

[@gambee_]

I love your videos but the way you’re saying “Alpinist” is very triggering to me lol

[@Emaratilfy]

Never selling my SARB017...

[@scalyscallion]

would love to see you reviewing the new gen alpinists!

[@rustydrog]

What is the size of your......sweater?

[@MattSeesGray]

“Who hurt you and what lead you down the path of seeking help in the comments section.” Man, I need to remember this any time there’s some dude saying that anything that’s less than 39mm is a “watch for my wife.” These dude’s wives are imaginary.

[@rainx381]

As a person who is slowly getting on in age, I understand the rationale for the cyclops glass.

[@lihanou]

Would be nice to show your wrist size when you show the dimensions, take note.

[@turnbasedtoddy7664]

I love how he is trolling everyone 😂😂. I’m just going to read the comments of everyone correcting him lol!

[@durandsimon5221]

Very nice but the combination with night vision aesthetics, which is a lot more modern in contrary to the vintage look of the alpinist doesn't do it for me. I guess it would work a lot better with something like the Samurai.

[@PH34RM33]

That phallic looking hour hand. I can never not see it 😭

[@YoureTerrific]

You might want to see a doctor.

[@matricious]

Would be dope if Seiko made a black series Laurel Alpinist 😮

[@markikn3183]

Love how you triggered us this time😂😂😂

[@YoureTerrific]

Only this time?

[@markikn3183]

@@YoureTerrific of course not

[@cagataycakmak2280]

Maybe this was the correct way of saying Alpinist all along. I wonder…

[@wibu.nomaden]

Dang bro, i think i might get one of these

[@Dunkelheit_Schwarz]

I watch your videos for your tongue-in-cheek humour

[@user-yc1wi9de3t]

I bought this popular video watch from nkuwan , which was originally priced at a few thousand dollars, but now it's only $380! It's really suitable to pick up feces!

[@borassictime918]

I love how Seiko keeps charging more and more for Namgyal Wangdi’s misaligned wicks that Rolex claims he wore on Mt Aplinest. It doesn’t stop me buying them, even though I can’t afford them anymore. 😉😂

[@scalyscallion]

I see this video and just went "hell yeah"

[@jonboy8181]

I like black watches, but something about black bracelets seems not right, maybe even wrong. Seems so tactical it would look better on a black nato or a rubber strap.

[@user-km1cf1gs8x]

I’m not liking the fit off the bracelet on the Night Vision . There’s a little Lucy Goosie on the end link fit to lug width . 😬 OCD x Seiko Vision = Rx time for Fan-Boys everywhere .

[@felipec2157]

I prefer the hi beat early 2000 alpine ist with red text under and not X. 😎💯

[@d.kashani]

AL-PA-NIST. Are you trying to troll us?

[@johnmaravelis2229]

video 1 of asking a review of the longines conquest 2023 green dial

[@HUMANDR7B8A]

I need one 🥲 I'm wearing Casio w158 and I can't afford more than 15dollar

[@tylerrohn6938]

Nice Al’Pine’Est

[@thmai1895]

If only the compass rings locked on these, drives me nuts

[@dibtojyoti10]

Alpine-ist much?

[@pyroiljm7]

A fellow Community enjoyer I see.

[@brownmcpherson5724]

Did I miss the +/- figures on this movement?

[@YoureTerrific]

With Seikos of this price, it’s rarely worth listing. Some will be dead accurate, others will be -20s per day. Each individual watch is different.

[@brownmcpherson5724]

I'd prefer quartz to that level of inaccuracy

[@YoureTerrific]

Then you are smarter than most collectors.

[@nicholaslynch7361]

A watch perfect for Col. Evan’s Ascent

[@YoureTerrific]

[@SmurfPerfect]

al-PIE-nist

[@MarioGonzalez-yq3gw]

Seiko it to me baby yeah!

[@stocksxbondage]

Really want to sell my SPB117

[@tomcruz3774]

Someone please please put the night vision on a hot pink ribbed nato strap please

[@unknown81360]

0:07 I never understood why Seiko keeps using this ugly black text on the back of their watches… We want to see the movement!

[@EluciaDeLuteIma]

Is English your first language

[@ricellisfrost620]

The Alpinist dial is a mess...

[@joewhite6875]

I think his pronunciation of alpinist is ironic which makes it sooo good

[@moneymikz]

Ugh I hate when my candle wick is misaligned 🔥

[@YoureTerrific]

That’s what you can expect from affordable candles.

[@jerroldfrank5869]

Too small for my wrist

[@tubenhans6190]

These would be so nice if they didn't mistake their dials for spec sheets. Watch makers of this world, grow up already and quit messing up your products, or, at the very least, go all the way and print diameters, lug-2lug and the CEO's social security number on there.

[@SteveFWatches]

Won’t buy one because numerals are not lined 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@obazda4826]

😀

[@morganthedruid1]

Al-pin-ist or Al-pine-ist? it's the first one and saying it the second way is ridiculous and much more work

[@suffocated]

Al pine ist? Come on man.

[@RedwoodAggie]

I'm sure picking up one Alpinist won't cause a problem for you. I only have 1..wait, 2 of them. They are multiplying. Send help.

[@jimlightanddark]

Tenzing Norgay died for YOUR sins.

I like most of your content quite a bit but maybe you could tone it down with the Oriental music featuring (Grand) Seiko watches? Every single time 😬
