The omega seamaster 300 is fantastic, it manages to be elegant but also low key and understated.

[@jkorengo]

I love mine, and it gets the most wrist time by far

[@LanguagesWithAndrew]

Agreed, I strongly prefer it to the Diver 300. I hate that they killed the titanium version.

[@BobbyHahaOne]

It's my everyday watch and is fantastic!

[@tdittyx2x3]

Love mine too! I’ve got it in the 9k gold.

[@pincer2885]

Love that Teddy doesn't just show watches in his shop, neither is he bias towards those in his shop. Just trying to show his fans the best information possible.

[@gerrytemple5044]

Well, 41 to 42 is the sweet spot for my 7"1/2 wrist, so thank you Teddy for giving me some ideas! Very much tending towards rectangular shapes again though, so I'd say 30 to 35 mm is my sweet spot there. Cheers!

[@Dialandhands]

Diameter, lug width, and lug to lug are so much more important together than one or the other. I bought a Willard and traded it a couple months later for a SPB143 because the lug to lug fit my wrist better. On the other hand, my SSK gmt, turtle, and Samurai are fantastic because they’re all around 46-48mm lug to lug with 22mm lug width and larger diameters. One more example, is my Tudor pelagos 39. Yes, the 21mm lug width is a little frustrating but after owning it for 6 months it was done because that’s what properly suits the watch. The insane taper on the bracelet wouldn’t be the same if they had made it 20mm. Always try a watch on before writing it off!

[@tbomber]

100%! lug-to-lug is what makes a 41mm watch "feel" like a 43, or a 39! you take the IWC pilot chrono 41, and it has a 52mm L2L... that's huge!

[@Robert-vw3od]

Lug length is what counts

[@marcn8750]

Agree

[@aaasports9898]

That’s what she said?

[@Moon_in_Flames]

If two watches are at 39 and 42 mm each but only 0.6 mm difference in lug length, will they wear the same?

[@aaronmonheim6428]

@@Moon_in_Flames pretty damn close. Hamilton Khakis wear huge compared to their case size because their lugs are so long.

[@Moon_in_Flames]

​@@aaronmonheim6428I see, thanks

[@DarthMuffin007]

Seamaster 300…I dive with this all the time. People always say “Jesus, you are diving with that?” My response…”It’s a dive watch meant to be with me under the sea!” It is my favorite.

[@Lebon996]

The Sinn U50 such a handsome rugged piece that just shouts out tool watch. Don't think you could get any more tool watch than this brilliantly designed piece.

[@thecajunvacationer3064]

Teddy the knowledge that I have gained of watches over the last two years from your channel has really made me love every aspect of this industry. From a true fan, thanks!!!

[@geopapak2632]

If I have to choose Omega seamaster(nice heritage appearance) JLC Polaris (all time classic) Tudor(because is Tudor!!!so simple 😉) About dress Nomos Omega de ville Last category CW Tudor chrono panda!!!!! Breitling n IWC Finally from all the categories my choice is Tudor panda dial chrono I just love this watch (Tudor is my favorite brand anyway!!!!)😍😍😍😍

[@martinjohnreeves]

Hey Teddy! Can't wait to see your next rendition of this series but for bigger watches in the 43-44mm case sizes! Thanks!

[@dempand4515]

Teddy. For a self stated 'light touch' approach you are cramming in a massive amount of detail about each watch. Brilliant stuff as always.😁

[@ba2724]

Such great looking watches in this segment!! But my oh my, that GS Snowflake is IT!! Such elegance and beauty...

[@DDHJunkHaulers]

Man would I love an omega watch. I love watches. The highest quality I've been able to get into was luvinox and techno marine

[@andreasedmondson4869]

Great job Teddy!! Way to put together a great group of watches.

[@andreasedmondson4869]

What was I lucky enough to win?

[@Watzleroviak1210]

Hey @TeddyBaldassarre . I watched your video with Kevin O'Leary where you talked about the Seiko Presage Sharp Edged GMT Limited Edition SPB303J1, and I loved it. I couldn't find one where I live (Germany), but I tracked one down at a Seiko dealer in Finland. Now waiting for the watch to arrive. I wouldn't have even looked at buying a Seiko without your video, so thanks!

[@frankmirandosr875]

I love the Aqua Terra, But the small Second model I prefer a bit more, The Snowflake also Is beautiful. Breitling B01 with that Mint Green Dial is Stunning as is the IWC Chrono. thank you Teddy once again for a great Video. Enjoyed it very much.

[@philippestrickler3461]

I am glad to discover new beautiful watches in all your videos . Your comments are priceless. Thank you so much.

[@trubadyr99]

Sinn!!! 👍 Black fully tegimented on a red strap is a winner to me. I have been researching long and deep and have purchased the Sinn U50. Oh my, what a watch!

[@jim78910]

The Hamilton Jazzmaster Maestro Automatic Chronometer is worth a mention, IMO.

[@toneswinger]

Omega Deville is definitely a sleeper with the 8800 movement in either of the three types. Speedmaster 57 is another extremely good looking watch for a chrono especially the sandwich dial. The Seamaster 300 heritage is the best diver out there simple but brilliant. Longines record is another good value watch with cosc although its 40mm

[@kakhabertukhashvili9367]

The Grand Seiko is really fantastic!

[@jorgealvial3518]

I think you could include the Longines Big Eye here. 41mm with a phenomenal movement and overall exceptional dial.

[@rickhammel9541]

after wearing a lot of 46-48mm watches, it's taking me awhile to get used to wearing a 41mm watch, but I like them now.

[@Brown2099]

Seamaster 300 heritage with the black dial is perfect.

[@utdminiman]

Feel like the Christopher Ward Aquitaine should have been on here, gorgeous watch especially the bronze COSC models.

[@salamaster933]

Great video. My dream watch is Longines Conquest with blue dial . Just beautiful watch. Also love dive watches from Seiko and Orient.

[@TheMuffinator]

Where did you see the price of the VC? I see it at $25k.

[@johnnyg419]

Love just about every watch you reviewed in this video, yet again another great video. Thanks, Teddy! 🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@TheBigWrist]

My BB 41s (2 with one more arriving in a few days) are my obviously my favorites. 41-43mm are my sweet spots on my 8+ inch wrist. Great video!

[@jennifermay134]

This video is right on time for me!! Needed to know about the Mako

[@LowHorology]

Lug-to-Lug is more important than case size any day. My Seiko Turtle bros will agree.

[@marcn8750]

Agree

[@ritul89]

Teddy I would make a lug to lug dependent videos as opposed to case diameter.... :)

[@marcn8750]

Agree

[@richardnedbalek1968]

Great follow-up vid idea!

[@marcn8750]

GP Laureato 225 anniversary LE is 41 mm Ref 81000 A rare bird that not many know about. It is the father to all the 42 mm current production laureato.

[@frankmirandosr875]

Does Anyone Have a link to where I can buy a Digital Measuring tool for Getting Demensions of Watch, lugs, thickness and band width , Thanks

[@intractablemaskvpmGy]

I've been wanting a dive watch- so many choices! I'm leaning towards the Marathon Arctic GSAR in 41mm at around $1850. They have the "jumbo" at 46mm which is a little big IMO. The white dial of the Arctic looks great and sets the watch apart from others, who generally sport a black dial. Also the tritium lume is pretty rare these days and indispensable for a watch of this caliber

[@michaeljordan6008]

Keep saving. Marathon is watchmaking mediocrity.

[@intractablemaskvpmGy]

@@michaeljordan6008 Perhaps you would care to provide examples of why the brand is "mediocre" or by what metric you use? If a watch brand is no good at all they won't enjoy longevity. Marathon has been around a very long time making mil-spec timepieces

[@ryangochuico]

Lots of awesome picks here. Vacheron Overseas my favorite (but unobtainable for me) watch😍 Thanks for the awesome content as always teddy

[@Zomoa.amsterdam]

The Audemars Piguet at 28:07 is PURE PERFECTION!

[@drnick40]

A fantastic overview. Thank you Teddy!

[@d.kashani]

i find that dial/bezel ratio and lug to lug has the most impact on how it appears and wears

[@robbiecleighmarks3088]

Wow Orient did a nice job. I'll be on the market for a Longines Conquest, I have the original (still a great watch) but think they're different enough to have both.

[@martinpansegrau]

Thank you Teddy. Well done 👍 Greets from Germany.

[@hownowvihao]

Is there a term to describe the ability to adjust the hour/timezone of a watch while it's still running like in the Omega Seamaster 300 Heritage?

[@toneswinger]

The Deville range is totally underated because you got two lineups the prestige with thin automatic models then the tressor with the handwound movement

[@zambonidriver42]

Tudor Black Bay, your info said 15mm thick. It’s 13.6.

[@jp37440]

I'm thinking about getting an Omega Seamster Apnea. 41,5mm diameter, 49mm Lug to Lug. 16mm thick. My wrist size is 6,25in. Could I pull this off?

[@billytscherne4643]

A quartz version would be a great follow-up .

[@Antlav90]

The Navitimer at 41mm is awesome but the only problem is the dial colors in that size.. hope they release the original black dial at 41mm or even better a re- release of the 806 with the twin jets logo.

[@AZadeh-nd8vx]

I have the older 42mm black dial Navitimer - the best one IMO.

[@drfranke]

Teddy, thank you for making a video for big guys. The 41mm is the perfect sweet spot for us!

[@povertyspec9651]

7 inch wrists are not big. I have an 8.25" wrist.

[@danielmarquez5424]

Great series! Would love to see 36mm cases next!

[@MackoyCC]

Do you have a separate content of best white dial watches from attainable to luxury? I find it hard to search if there's any.

[@superkjell]

My everyday is a Tudor 1926. The most underrated watch ever!

[@BigTwinkle]

mine too. i love it.

[@Nomosglashuette_official]

Thanks for the feature!

[@low87dawg86]

That seamaster and green Navi 😍

[@smokinscars1024]

Definitely the omega aqua terra or IWC Mark xviii or Longines Spirit Green Edition (42 mm 😬) kind of crossing the 41 mm

[@paulbonaventura4969]

What I love about the SM300 is that the bezel is thin and offers more dial. The "sandwhich" design is also really nice.

[@b.newsome8696]

I buy from your site because your reviews give me real informative

[@alexwelch1520]

What about the new Nomos Ahoi in sky blue or gold as an everyday watch?

[@AZadeh-nd8vx]

Datejust 41 for the win - especially blue dial, smooth bezel Oyster bracelet. Elegant, sporty, versatile and perfectly proportioned. The perfect watch.

[@JJL206]

…if only you could get one!

[@qibcentricsplayground2043]

honestly for the prospex speedtimer, I prefer the 39.5mm version simply because of the colourways. The 41 are not as muted compared to the smaller version and that kinda ruins the vibe - looks more like the cheaper watches you get under 100 bucks and also no black PVD version which I am a sucker for

[@scottlauren3145]

Is it so much to ask for the $340 Orient Mako 3 to have a milled clasp and solid end links? San Martin can do it for half that price. This is the main reason I sold my Mako 2. Dont get me wrong, it's a great looking watch, just not worth the money unless you go grey market

[@Juanjo191]

I would also include the Oris Propilot and maybe the CW Colchester

[@stu632]

I was hoping Teddy had Sinn as trying to order one from them seems more complicated than it has to be, do they even show prices on their site, I can't see?

[@kakhabertukhashvili9367]

The Vacheron watch is beautiful but the price is also very, very beautiful!

[@jacobrivera7224]

I just purchased that beautiful blue 💙 Mako

[@J_Marv]

Teddy, how do you feel about the Mido TV big date? I know it is a 40mm but perhaps it may wear slightly larger? Seems like a much more attainable squarebody watch? Any thoughts?

[@anthonyhauser3063]

What’s your thoughts on Gevril watches ? I think they are worth mentioning in my opinion they are a great bang for the buck

[@AlinDragosDiaconescu-z5l]

In the "Dress" segment, it should also be mentioned IWC Portofino Complete Calendar ( IW359001 ).

[@cipitm1]

Any thoughts for Norqain? They have a nuce design but a bit pricey 😮

[@bigv9982]

There really well made the fit and finish on them is fantastic only downside is the clasp no on the fly adjustment but they have just released a new diver and GMT with an updated clasp to fix that problem and am sure they will start adding the new clasp to all there new releases

[@stevendimino]

Totally agree that the Rolex Date Just with fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet is the best combo! My favorite would be the white Roman, now if I can just find one! Great job on this video loved the content!

[@jamied931]

You can find them everywhere

[@joshuakaplan5726]

You gotta throw the IWC Pilot's Chronograph 41 in with the Portugeiser!

[@BitcoinKal]

The Omega Seamaster 300 is my grail watch. One day 💥👊🏽

[@LanguagesWithAndrew]

Excellent list overall, the only thing I outright disagree with you about is that the Nautilus is a dress watch: no way, it's an everyday watch I would say and a lot of people would even call it a sports watch.

[@misteranderson2112]

Jody from Just One More Watch released a 41mm watch that is an absolute spec monster!

[@jasonmango5232]

Teddy, what is you opinion on Swatch and Omega teaming up to create the planet watches.

[@claudtalkz2194]

[@stephenrhodes3916]

Prefer the 40mm Hulk to the 41mm Sub. It's probably the only other watch i'd consider bringing in to my collection.

[@ahz8976]

this VCO is 👌

[@ryanthomas9306]

I want the tudor red bezel. Now that it’s thinner it moved up on my list

[@kakhabertukhashvili9367]

28 watches, you're good at counting I see!

[@thinaphonpetsiri9907]

For me I’m currently interested in getting Seiko Presage Japanese Garden SSA379J1 41.7mm but I don’t know if it will be too big for my wrist. My wrist is around 16cm so 6 - 6.25 inches. Has anyone here got the same wrist size and have tried it before? P.S. I have just graduated so this will be my first mechanical watch.

[@thinaphonpetsiri9907]

Hi I have just watched your older video and realized that we have a similar wrist size haha. I have been following you for a while and your guide is exceptionally helpful for the beginner like me. I have a rather small wrist so it’s tricky for me to choose one. (And those watches I want to get are pretty big) I’m a big fan of Roman numerals dial but most brands tend to omit it from their smaller models.

[@REDREDStrawberry]

why are some of the watches lug to lug stated and some are not?

[@shuycg]

Wow, are we supposed to be impressed that finishing "the" bracelet takes a full day? How much can that cost? 200, 300 francs ? That's a high estimate and would still be 0.5% of the asking price. The profit margins of these top brands that mastered industial production is super high.

[@zionkid420]

I'd say imagine doing the Bel Canto and not actually saying what the complication was. But you don't have to imagine because that's what you did here. For those wondering it's an hour repeater. Not to be confused with a quarter or minute repeater.

[@danishgupta9009]

Why didn't you mention any glashuette original watches???

[@danishgupta9009]

????

[@therenaissancetinker2972]

The 300 is still such a sleeper. I don’t get why it’s not more popular. You can pick them up brand new with a validated warranty card for around 4k usd on the grey market. Such a great value.

[@siongheeleong8078]

At long last, the Omega DeVille gets a mention. Meanwhile, the Omega Constellation 41mm continues to be ignored here. It is the best selling model range at Omega but only the niche (within Omega) Globemaster range is mentioned like it is the more popular watch. Disappointing.

[@toneswinger]

The constellation 39mm on a bracelet is nice too. Funny how Globemaster is underated too the two tone is fabulous

[@Ati-97]

if seiko would make a 38mm gmt I’d buy it in a heartbeat.

[@RichMitch]

[@archibaldkin7218]

[@Greysprunkiyay]

Ah yes the “Chrono Sport looks exactly like the Daytona” as though Rolex was the first to use a ceramic bezel on chronos 😂 Rolex stole the design cue from the original Dark Side of the Moon in 2013. Cmon Teddy, Rolex has enough hollow marketing wins without influencers claiming everything they make is THE ORIGINAL.

[@neuro.weaver]

SEIKO ruining their perfect face with that power reserve indicator reminds me of PEUGEOT ruining their entire line up by placing the steering wheel so low it obscures the dash board. Because industrial design does not work by committee.
