[@danielribeiro2113]

Screw that have fun. I just bought a Hamilton Khaki field 38 for 180 couldn't pass up such a deal. Do I need it ?no. does it make me happy? yes . Live life doing the things that make you happy.

[@theurbangentry]

WOW, bargain! Enjoy, Excellent comment, thank you for sharing that. Best regards, TGV

[@jeffreywilke1858]

Dirty Ribz where did you get the Hamilton at such a good price

[@danielribeiro2113]

Jeffrey Wilke I learned from TGV look for bargains on Ebay

[@sack943]

Dirty Ribz very well said ser

[@jackstanislow8051]

I have a 38mm Khaki and it is an outstanding watch! Keeps increadible time and is just bad to the bone! Enjoy!

[@PhilipWing]

Man Trist, you've got the 3 perfect Rolexes, literally. If I had to choose 3 Rolex watches I'd choose the EXACT references you have. Back in the day when you had the Submariner I thought to myself "I hope Trist gets my personal holy trinity, the 36mm Explorer and the Pepsi GMT (the exact one you own now). The Navi of course, my all-time favorite watch is also a part of your collection. Your collection leaves me speechless! Congrats!

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Philip, deeply flattered. Best regards, TGV

[@RandomRobReviews]

So many watches, so little time.

[@theurbangentry]

So true Rob, so true indeed! Thank you, I hope this finds you well. Best regards, TGV

[@kaiserwilhelmii1827]

Seriously, this channel deserves more attention. Amazing video as always! :) EDIT: Oh and that intro was really cool! Nice job!

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you sir! Very kind. Best regards, TGV

[@DKarkarov]

I will be honest TGV, if you aren't getting kickbacks from Squale and Seiko you really should be.

[@shanenelson3438]

Watching these videos every day is what I look forward to! Your channel got me into watches imn the first place! I love the all black Seiko skx!

[@danielchin5847]

Us watch collectors are a unique bunch - selling the two tone Tudor with day and date functionality to buy a steel time only explorer , logically its inexplicable, its just that connection we feel to different watches, like love

[@theurbangentry]

LOL so true!! Great comment Daniel, thank you. Best regards, TGV

[@faizalf119]

I believe that collecting watches is not about collecting the most rare or prestigious watches but finding watches that we love to wear.

[@rufusvlekkemans1768]

Each thursday I have a day off, have lunch, watch your channel. Love your videos and passion about watches. Keep it going! Greetings from the Netherlands. Sander

[@ConkreteMan]

Always inspirational to see your SOTC. It never fails that I drop my jaw at some of the ones you let go, but you seem to add ones that make it all worthwhile.

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you sir, very honoured by your words. Best regards, TGV

[@dogg5306]

One word... respect... as I can see that there's a little story linked to every watch you own... and despite the fact that there are several watches that I wouldn't buy in your collection... I just adore it!!!

[@Pastmaster-15]

I'd love to see your wife's collection my wife of 25 years is wondering also just saying

[@theurbangentry]

I will certainly ask her, wish me luck ;-) Thank you and congrats on the 25 years, very inspiring. Best regards, TGV

[@mountainmanwatchreviews8081]

double Nickel I was thinking the same thing when he said that the silver casio was in her collection, I thought Id love to see what her's looks like.

[@jodawson1]

Yes!! I would love to see her collection too!!! Please have her on for a guest appearance!! X

[@privatedecker2point0]

Funnily enough earlier today I was rewatching your previous SotC videos and looking forward to an update! What impeccable timing!

[@theurbangentry]

So glad to hear :D Poetic timing indeed. Thank you Sean Best regards TGV

[@jameswalker4947]

The quality of your vids is top notch. Detailed. Informative. Entertaining. Highly enjoyable. Thanks

[@SxC97]

Hey TGV, just wanted to say that I'm a huge fan of your channel. I've had an interest in watches since I was a kid (maybe 5 years old?) but that interest sat dormant for years until I stumbled onto your channel. I've already purchased 3 pieces this year and am already planning 3-4 more before the end of the year. I don't comment much but I just wanted to take the time to say thank you for all of the work you put into your videos, we all really appreciate it! -KK

[@MadAzn53]

What an incredible collection you have there. As you were bringing out the watches, I was thinking you'd say something like "the noise you're hearing are my friends jackhammering the Invicta for my review. Please disregard."

[@AhmedHussain-mz1ks]

Instead of sleeping I am watching your watch collection, awesome collection!

[@lrfiv]

Also, I adore your chronographs! The strap on the Tissot is one of the most amazing matches I've ever seen.

[@ernanijunior7963]

Outstanding collection, TGV! Really stunning. We can see clearly all the love and thoughts you have put on it. It has almost everything: old, new, great colors, basic and busy dials, pilots, divers, dress watches, chronographs... My collection has grown too: I bought a new INOX Professional Diver in a black dial and a super bracelet that transforms completely the watch (this is my fourth INOX). Keep making this channel a jewel for the lovers of horology.

[@jasonbarbour38]

I've been watching as time permits for 6 months. I think this is a tremendous show, great explanations, entertaining, well done!

[@ryanmanak4129]

Great video again. I just found your junghans Meister Telemeter and I'm BLOWN AWAY! It's so beautiful and you're 100% right about the issue of buying a vintage chrono from the 50s, as I have been looking for months now.

[@AM-qz9kw]

the authentic pronunciation of the watch, absolutely amazing 👍

[@stephenrhodes7758]

Your collection is constantly evolving so it's always fun to check these videos out. Thankfully mine is now complete so i can sit back & breathe a deep sigh of relief lol.

[@ThatKiddmg]

Been looking forward to this ever since the last one haha, keep up the good work

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you sire, very flattered. Best regards, TGV

[@Chasrut75]

Out of all the youtube channels i must say yours is the most interesting and i tend to watch more often. I have started a little watch collection and it consists of a larus (that my wife purchased), a Omega constellation 1422 and a casio 611e 1ef which you have on your channel and i will collect tomorrow from a shop. Keep up the good work.

[@JustinMiles17]

Tristano the only man to describe his collection as "The Fleet" haha! Love it brother, collection is ever evolving. Enjoy the explorer my friend!

[@petehorn6705]

The pepsi gmt and navitimer have to be my all time favorites

[@theurbangentry]

You have great taste Pete ;-) Thank you, Best regards, TGV

[@fluffywhiteducky]

Yes!! This made my night; I have been waiting so long for a state of the collection update.

[@johnprice909]

"Embrace the madness!" - Yes, absolutely. I'm going to steal your idea of having a logbook to track incoming/outgoing watches. I was surprised about your little Tudor DD leaving - thought it was a keeper for you. As for the Tiger - she's in good hands! Love your new Explorer. Isn't it fun to see how our collections morph over the year(s)? Ciao, John

[@mrmichaellepp8206]

I was having such a shit day until I saw that you posted this! Thanks for everything you do TGV.

[@JT-th1lp]

What happened to your THeuer Formula 1 GMT with the ETA 2893-2 movement? I have watched all your State of the Collection videos for almost the past 3 years and there continues to be no mention! :(

[@32chris11]

A nice, well-rounded collection. Definitely one of my favorite SOTC that you've done in the 2 years or so I've been watching.

[@CoolCforlife]

Love your collection. You have several I plan to add to my collection as well! I enjoyed your comments, and couldn't agree more when you laid out the first 3 of your collection.. The SKX, the Squale, then the Sub! That IS a nice collection on its own. But the collection only gets better as you kept laying them out! Because of you I have added the Squale on my list of future purchases. It's a fantastic watch! Love the look.. Something about that Orange minute hand on the Squale gets me everytime. Much respect and I appreciate all your hard work you do to keep your channel exciting.

[@GallaghersGrub]

Lately I'm thinking the perfect watch collection consists of two watches: A dress/business watch, and a beater for the gym. Rolex Explorer on bracelet. Seiko SKX on nato. The perfect collection. Love your vids.

[@MrRoyck10]

There is a pick for everyone in your collection of iconic pieces and most importantly it makes you happy so enjoy. Nice collection that reflects your passion for horology.

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you CKR, also for a really wonderful comment you left a video or two back. I lose track but I wanted to say it was very much appreciated as always. I hope you are well my friend. Best regards, TGV

[@seltsamerzeitgenosse9797]

The model of the Sd.Kfz. 181 at 4:00 made my day. Nice one! :D

[@lewis14spurs]

Great collection, maybe get a JLC Reverso with you family crest engraved in the back, which would definitely suit the collection?

[@theurbangentry]

OMG, what a classy recommendation, I have actually bought a JLC but not a Reverso, I already have said too much ;-) Thank you Lewis, Best regards, TGV

[@lewis14spurs]

The Urban Gentry can't wait to find out what it is!!!

[@J.Bradley.]

Can not be unseen lol.

[@Km0577]

Love your intros! THEY REMIND ME OF THE HUNT!

[@keLetoN]

Just found your channel yesterday TGV, I've always loved watches but now I am thinking about getting more serious about collecting, wearing, and enjoying them! Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge... Now to look at your archive of videos! :)

[@trailbrake]

TVG, an exceptional video, as always! I do love the "out of the collection" designation, and by the way it is in my wife's collection. Puts a smile on my face every time. Very strategic to keep the beloved happy and some nice pieces within arms reach. I am inspired to adopt this approach.

[@Sideshow320]

Beautiful collection, truly one to be proud of. You've clearly made your choices very wisely through much research and deliberation. Nothing more satisfying than fully immersing yourself in your passions, as is undoubtedly exhibited by these wonderful works of art.

[@tonyp1089]

Love the names you give to your watches! Definitely the best watch channel on KZbin

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you so much Tony, very kind of you to say and I am extremely honoured. Best regards, TGV

[@gatorbone1531]

Amazing collection TGV. We share very similar tastes. Keep up the good work! -Myles

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Myles :D Best regards, TGV

[@zombiesneedluv21]

Thanks for sharing your collection - very interesting video! I like how you don't just rattle off the watches, but explain why you have the watch, why it is important, etc. Keep up the great content!

[@royjackson2520]

I must of missed it, but what happened to the Speedmaster?

[@generalpatton272]

I love state of the collection. Wonderful episode! Thanks so much TGV!

[@spookster5325]

Hello TGV, I absolutely love that skx mod you displayed at the beginning but I searched for the watch modder you mentioned online and couldn't seem to find him, may I ask how you got a hold of that amazing piece? Also you mentioned there might be a queue, where could I sign up to join it?

[@AndrewWadeNZ]

Love the update. Thanks for sharing. I hope my collection grows to something that I can be as proud of! Keep up the good work!

[@George-lt6jy]

Great idea embracing the madness. My advice to save money for watches. If you cut the heating during the winter, you can just wear a coat of all your leather watch straps. Also, I think the tissot in your collection is my favorite.

[@Claus-L.Mueller]

Hi TGV, I hope this finds you well my friend. Congrats on your current state of the collection. It was fun to watch. I have to smile when you explained, that you failed to consolidate your collection. ;) I'm still trying to keep my core collection small. And my midrange goal is still the Zenith El Primero 1969 Chronograph. I'm going to sacrifice up to three of my other core timepieces. Ending up with five pieces in total: Zenith, Rolex OP, Omega SMP, Nomos Orion and a free slot currently filled with my G-Shock. Best regards, Claus

[@johnl1120]

Beautiful collection. I need to separate my collection in that manner: Divers, Aviation. Etc. You inspired me to add a Pepsi Gmt to mine. I should have it in two weeks. Looking forward to more videos.

[@alexanderholding1952]

I have been following you for about a year, your collection has a nice variety now.

[@uzaerahmed]

Your collection at the moment is just AMAZING!!! Seriously, enjoy it :)

[@robertconquest2220]

Congratulations TGV on the current state of the collection. Look forward to hearing about the next med/long term goal.

[@theurbangentry]

Robert! Lovely to help you, I hope you are well. Thank you so much, Best regards, TGV

[@Lukegaragozlo]

Is re-gold plating a watch considered as much of a sin as polishing? Or is it considered to be fine? Love your channel please do a video on this it would be great to know in case the gold plating comes off my el Primero. Am I better off leaving it with scratches or is getting the gold plating redone okay?? Thank You!

[@arthurscargill8010]

Always enjoy a good SOTC video. You've got some great pieces and it's lovely to see how the collection has evolved and matured in the 18 months or so I've been following your channel. Thanks & take care Tristano.

[@DavidAWirth]

An absolute fantastic collection! Your videos inspire and educate....and consequently now I have two more grails : ) Thank you !!!

[@Danimal506]

Love the log book idea! And please keep buying/selling/trading watches, live the dream for those of us who cant!

[@OFD]

Crazy awesome collection! All the way to the retro databank , you've got it covered.

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Aron! Always an pleasure to hear from you. Best regards, TGV

[@josephwhitman2627]

i finally found me a vintage i picked it up at a flea market funny enough. But i only gave 5 bucks for it. It remarkably in mint condition...its one of my favorite pieces in my collection.. keep up the fantastic work TGV. best regards Joseph

[@josephwhitman2627]

a vintage Timex I apologize for that.

[@eliorlevi7231]

Hello TGV, can you tell us please where did you get your mod SKX ? maybe a link ? ,BTW Really like your channel .Your truly love and passion for watches are making your videos so great. Looking forward to new videos

[@theurbangentry]

Link is in the video description of the full review I did a few months back, have a look there. Thank you for the kind words, very much appreciated. Best regards, TGV

[@myvenusinuranus]

your Rolex explorer is the watch I want the most

[@TatzkaTube]

myvenusinuranus same. Or squale or explorer or breitling or sub :)

[@myvenusinuranus]

no, not the Squale or the Breitling or the sub......just the 36mm Explorer I have small wrists and 36mm is the perfect size. I like the simplicity of the Explorer. it's always been one of my top favorite watches. I've never found a used one for sale ever

[@TatzkaTube]

Yes, it is an amazing watch. I'm propably going to buy a little more expensive watch for my budget in 1 year or something, but explorer is still quite expensive for me. Tudor black bay 36 is a great cheaper option, which I might want. The case shape is just not as slender as explorer's.

[@walnut5603]

Wow what a eclectic and wonderful collection. Not only do I think your watches are fantastic I love your perspective and enthusiasm for watch collection. A huge thank you from me, I really enjoy your reviews.

[@corytersmitte3284]

Just happened upon your channel... your enthusiasm is contagious! Well done

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you, welcome aboard! Best regards, TGV

[@VGhev]

Im wating that Invicta pro diver review hahaha Regards from Mexico!

[@theurbangentry]

Very soon my friend, very soon. Thank you Humberto. Best regards, TGV

[@lKingRichardl]

Your collection is awesome and very unique. I know I'm sounding so typical but the sub is my favourite. Congrats on getting the explorer as well...a great addition.

[@cathb4114]

Terrible sacrificies,beautiful additions....such is the wristwatch hobby!! Bravo et encore

[@benendesc3931]

I just Carnot help loving the explorer due to its simplicity, just absolutely stunning

[@ducsauce]

just got my first SKX009J because of this channel, thanks for the recommendation!

[@zoostation64]

What happened to Casio Edifice you unboxed a while back? That looked like a very interesting watch.

[@bearclooneywatches4186]

You consolidate just as me! LOL But we enjoy every moment and every piece! So good that you purchased Explorer. Good job on SOTC BIG LIKE

[@theurbangentry]

LOL, thank you Mike. I hope you are well. Best regards, TGV P.s. Do you still have the Skywalker by any chance?

[@bearclooneywatches4186]

Tristano I still have Skywalker and it's not going anywhere. First because it's from you and second because I love that piece. I will be wearing it in December when going for Star Wars premiere. Keep up great work you do for horology community. Cheers mate!

[@vidcontentonly]

Now this, is one hell of a collection!

[@joaovitoramaralsilva9745]

I am gla you decided to keep the Rattrapante, that's a very special watch!! It's funny to be here since the first STOC: in one, you say you'll be consolidating, because your collection has grown far too big. In the next one, you say you decied to embrace the chaos LOL how not to love this channel?? Best regards T!!

[@theurbangentry]

LOL thank you Joao, VERY much appreciated, I hope you are well my friend. Best regards, TGV

[@_PGleo86]

Ah, my favorite Giugiaro design is the Subaru SVX. Wholly unconventional from one of the great "practical" carmakers, similar to that Seiko :) Love where the collection is now, and looking forward to the future! Excellent video as usual!

[@lifetrolled]

lovely and genuine video, as always TGV. Love from Australia!

[@stonedsoldiar]

Really love your vids, thanks for them :) Was wondering where you got that Seiko SKX007 Cerakote, I'm trying to find one but it seems kinda rare. Did you get it coated yourself or it came in that way ? Thank you in advance !

[@andersestes]

'embrace the sickness and the madness' love it TGV! Go for it. Enjoying following your horoligical journey. You are doing a wonderful job

[@fandi465]

I owned a SNA411, definitely a very interesting piece. The domed crystal is acutally one of its best part as a maginifier to read the small texts on the dial, and also maginifies the depth of its dial.

[@massimodigiampaolo1320]

Initially I wasn't that much into watches not that I didn't wore them but I wasn't into them. But your channel inspired me to pick up a well made and nice watch instead of just another fashion watch. Ended up going for the Seiko SNZH53.

[@EnriqueGiliOrtiz]

I loved that Tudor day date. What an elegant piece it was! But life goes on)

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you, I did too, I am already looking for another one but with sapphire glass this time. Best regards, TGV

[@EnriqueGiliOrtiz]

I must say you have an amazing collection anyway, and the beautiful vintage Omega can replace that Tudor perfectly. I enjoyed this collection review very much!

[@J.Bradley.]

My jaw hung open the entire time you were going down the list on that yellow paper. Baby blue, the tiger, little Henry! Thank God you finished that list with the Charles Frodsham. I would love to hear the minute repeater on that one. I yelled YES when I saw you still have Flighty. I have mine as well and love it. Buying a marathon navigator in the next few days. My favorites of yours are the 1521, the jelly fish, the Rattrapante and most of all the Janeiro. I will be so disappointed if you sell the Janeiro and I am unable to buy it. I'll still watch the channel though lol.

[@timschubardt]

Great collection. I love your Tissot and your Breitling their dials are stunning.:)

[@jayfalcon22]

I love these State of collection videos, looking forward to your new grail. I recently purchased a gmt pepsi same reference and a modern silver dial datejust, i was able to swap jubilee bracelet from the datejust to the gmt and i really love the look of both of these watches. Your videos inspired my selection and continue to shape my next purchases, thank you for all the work that you do. It awaken a true passion.

[@Aaron-be8sv]

That feeling you get when you see a new state of the collection thumbnail on KZbin!

[@biggeecee359]

Great SOTC vid sir. Such a varied and interesting collection that you clearly put thought into. And more importantly, not a hint of the snobbery that can often be found amongst watch folk. ❤️'ing that Pepsi!

[@ReviewByBill]

I'd lose the Marathon, Tissot, split chrono, and Omega (maybe). That'll put you well on your way towards another goal and free up some space in the safe/box etc. If you're already wearing the Explorer as a dress watch, then there's no real need for any of those others! Beautiful collection as always!

[@markbritton6485]

Thanks for another great video TGV. Do you often use the watch winders for automatic watches (invacground)? I head that as they wind in one direction they can wear the the mechanism out compared to normal wear as the rotor blade can move freely in both directions. Thanks

[@rwandarousey]

Nice Databank and G-Shock I love the ripley seiko

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you PoeSky! :D Best regards, TGV

[@badmanelite]

The patina on that Omega looks spot on for the style!

[@WACC_Warlord]

In one of your previous videos I think you recommended WatchUwant for second hand watches. do you still have confidence buying from them?

[@bgsman44]

I only have 3 watches so far, 2 quartz (bought by my lovely girlfriend) and 1 automatic, and I'm planning on pulling the trigger on my first diver (the Steinhart Ocean One Titanium 500) some time next week and this video is making me even more excited to build my collection!

[@jakebb4238]

Hi TGV I have an omega from the early sixties and I'm just wondering who you would recommend to replace the acrylic? Many thanks

[@alihammoud3684]

Hi TGV :) I simply loved this video. Cheers from Lebanon 🇱🇧 😊😊😊😊😊

[@Armyrope115Official]

the intros never fail to entertain! they get better every time. well done!

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you so much, very kind of you to say. Best regards, TGV

[@fuchtler10]

Thanks for the wonderful introduction to your collection...by the way...keep the Tissot, I rarely saw such a well-made dial! Best regards!

[@abdulthomas6821]

TGV, why don't you have a watch from a super high end watch brand such as IWC, AP, Patek Philippe, etc.?

[@SRdrastik]

The blue Squale on the mesh bracelet is my next watch for sure. I absolutely love it.

[@wigennazarov1824]

hi, enjoy your clips, just a question, have you reviewed Tissot Ttouch solar?

[@XKCommander]

Amazing collection brother! Keep up the good work, very entertaining.

[@mrbaseballover12]

Dear Tristano, Where did you get the red nato strap on youre GMT Pepsi? I love the colour combination and I would like to get one myself on my Steinhart Ocean One GMT Pepsi :) Thank you and as always: great video 😄👊 Best regards, Marijn

[@TGVG_]

Hyped to be so early! Love the videos as always! Kind regards Julius

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Julius :D Best regards, TGV
