Glad to see the Oris pointer included. Would love to see a video on the base Coin Edge watches and best white dial with blue hands. Keep them coming.

[@Seagull1963]

Our community loves your videos about the Seagull 1963! Keep going :)

[@jrhangar2347]

Hey guys, love your videos too about the Seagull1963! Good job

[@michaelniemer4449]

Your take on the skeleton ‘complication’ gave me a new appreciation for this approach, thank you!

[@wallytangofoxtrot4721]

Love the mechanical chronograph particularly as provided as the incredible value that is the Seagull. If this trend grows, it would be great to see these movements with a power reserve indicator given the potential energy draw of using the chrono feature. Great summaries and review as always Teddy.

[@johannschild8499]

Happy to see two of my favorite, yet underrated watch brands being showcased here: Frederique Constant and Raymond Weil. Awesome work Teddy

[@jrhangar2347]

The Seagull 1963 is one of the greatest watches ever made, couldn’t agree more!

[@JakeAikens]

Picked mine up second hand on eBay and it’s one of my top three. Can’t believe what I paid for it. It gets more comments than anything else.

[@geomancer6371]

It's offered online here for just a little over $100. Is that too good to be true? Several vendors offer it.

[@truchua2626]

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Hi Adrien, I am well and hope the same for you. Thanks for the support!

[@dannyg6592]

I have a Seagull 1963, paid under $150 including tax and shipping on Ali Express and it even came with a carrying case and a second strap. It truly is a lovely, charming watch. Now I want that Casio! (edit: I ordered the Casio right after watching your video, Teddy - getting it tomorrow and can't wait!)

[@BrittPearceWatches]

I love complicated watches! My husband loves complicated women. We're a complicated bunch! ;)

[@j.harbottle8928]

Hi Teddy ! The SUN019 and similar numbered Seiko Kinetic watches are true GMT diver watches for a very affordable price, with the hour hand that changes the the date forwards and backwards as it should. They are very big to wear even for a diver, but have a silicon strap as supplied. I have the Yeti white version too, super good satin finish with this one ! keep em coming T. !

[@chrisdavis8399]

That Christopher Ward moon phase is beautiful but I can’t get past the logo. I have a rose gold Sun and Moon and absolutely love it! Excellent value and looks! Cheers all!

[@edkwon]

I don't understand why so many ppl have a problem with the CW logo, it's a name and the font looks fine

[@Judah.Rosenthal]

@@edkwon I don’t personally mind the CW logo but I don’t like that it feels as if every week it changes. I get it since they’re a young company but so many differences keep reminding me that they’re young.

[@garyboyle695]

@@Judah.Rosenthal Every week grow up and just admit you're all about brand names.

[@Judah.Rosenthal]

@@garyboyle695 They also put their name in more than one place. Plus Christopher Ward left in 2020, not unheard of but odd (Peter Speake Marin is one that comes to mind). Can they decide if their trident is going to be on the second hand or not? Doesn’t seem to apply only to diving watches as some have, some don’t. And that weird logo imprint is on some watches, not on others. Every watch company does something stupid but consistency matters.

[@Judah.Rosenthal]

@@garyboyle695 That said, I really like their C65 and each iteration I get closer to buying.

[@andrewd7586]

I’m wearing my Seagull 1963 whilst watching this Teddy! Great little watch! I do own a vintage Bulova date point watch. It works beautifully but only gets limited wear time as it’s more of a dress watch. Some good categories though.👍🏼🇦🇺

[@Goob2112]

Red Star is one of the companies making the watches with seagull chronograph movements, I think they’re based in Hong Kong but not completely sure. They make a very cool chrono similar to the one you’ve shown but also with a moonphase, the movement is a seagull st1908 and can be purchased online for 250 to 300 dollars. Incredible bang for the buck.

[@maximme]

wow THAT RAYMOND WEIL truly caught my eye. one of the BEST classic design. so clever to highlight the hands from the background,

[@zavensaroyan5388]

Attainable versus affordable was a subtle yet excellent distinction. Nice job.

I actually own the Orient Sun and Moon 3 shown in this video. I'm a college student who is tight on cash but wants to get into watches. This was an amazing watch for the price and I am so happy I decided to buy it. Glad to see it on this list.

[@burhanuddinsakarwala5033]

I have that world timer by Casio, the bracelet broke off while trekking. I fit an aftermarket metal bracelet onto it and put a bull bar to protect the glass. It's one of my favourite watches.

[@dosprompt5418]

Check out the Vario leather straps that they made custom for the world timer.

[@MrTallAndy]

Great shout on the Freelancer Skeleton 🥰

[@mikeangelo94]

The Sun & Moon V3 is one of the nicest watches around at that price point. It could easily be a $1,000 watch if it had "Swiss Made" on the dial.

[@ThecrazyJH96]

Agreed, classy dress watch

[@Alex_Fung]

I've got the GS sbgn005 for a gmt watch and love it. Yes it's quartz but it's the best in the business. Great video!

[@emptyneverland4478]

Moonphase is my favorite complication by far

[@TWS001]

Great video as always Teddy. Farer world timer is also very nice although I don't think that requires another crown which is essentially an inner rotating bezel.

[@truebluemiata]

The Seagull ST 19 is truly one of a kind. I wish they'd address the QC problems. Love the Mido Ocean Star. It's truly a traveller's watch with it being a true GMT, diver, and dressy piece, all in one.

[@royhess1406]

couldn't agree more! just had one come in, such a beautiful piece, but unfortunately there is a speck of who-knows-what under the crystal 💀😭

[@aaronwarner06]

The new longines spirit flyback chronograph seems like a good shout in place of the FC at 13:35 But I might be a little biased haha :))

[@CFTreeMossPlants]

Thank you for posting! I wish one of these fit my super small wrist.

[@karlsenula9495]

Any movement with an NH35 will also provide hacking and this is one of the most affordable movements in many many micro-brands. That said the Orient is a lovely watch at a lovely price.

[@_CookyMonster_]

About moonphase: what do you think about a Seagull 1963 model with moonphase? I've been trying to find an attainable chronograph and so far this is my top-1 pick, so I wanted to ask for your opinion on such complication in Seagull, considering that their usual chronograph is good for that price range.

[@andrewkarsten5268]

My first automatic watch is one I’ve bought over two months ago, and I’m still loving it. It’s a skeleton watch that I was able to get for $80 (on sale). It’s the fossil privateer. I personally love how beautiful it is, I stare at it every day

[@cooloutac]

I absolutely love that skeleton look its my favorite. I also have it in my Fossil Modern Machine watch. I paid full retail $250 and it came with a fake crown and fake bracelet but I still kept it. Only other one I saw being sold at the time was on ebay with a scratched glass for $138, or on chrono24 for $135 missing too many links. You also see that same skeleton movement in a couple kenneth coles, michael kors and diesel watches. Whom i believe fossil manufactures some watches for all of them. The left side literally looks like a chain dangling down through a bike deraileur. Every part of that movement has different finished metals to separate all the different levels for the viewers. And whats messed up my friend, is we probably won't see this movement design in anymore watches. Because covid and smartwatches have pretty much killed the industry. Fossil is focusing on smartwatches now themselves and its been rough for them. The only new interesting thing fossil has in their current lineup is the Bronson automatic, which pretty much pales compared to their previous years everett. And I think they pretty much just want to charge for a made in japanese label which morons like teddy will eat up. When really, imo, the chinese made watches they have like that everett automatic (which is not as good looking as the privateer or modern machine aesthetically) are much more beautiful especially on the display back compared to their current japanese model.

Christopher Ward… love how these guys continue to make incredible designs and then make them unwearable with the name printed in an ugly font. Never seen a watch company self-sabotage so badly.

[@aabo1811]

The Christopher Ward logo looks like it came from a McDonalds Happy Meal.

[@specialcircs]

Great watches, couldn't care less about the logo.

[@oOoScarecrow31oOo]

That’s your point of view. I have no issue with the logo. It has no functionality on a watch. I just need legibility, time and complications. But what CW is delivering for the price is hard to beat.

[@stuart150]

I don't see how one might describe the CW font as ugly? It's Brown Pro, a classic grotesque or sans serif font, the epitome of restrained but modern typography....hardly "ugly"? A matter of taste to be sure, but ugly seems an extreme view...

[@Fredrik-iz4ou]

Totally agree.

[@matijakajtez6201]

Just recently bought a master collection longines used for about 2k and it has pointer date hand, chronograph, hacking, moonphase, 24 hour dial, day, date and beautiful blue hands... Feel like I struck gold with this one haha

[@Xoan-Diaz]

Certina has a true GMT with the same movement as the Mido's one (80 hours power reserve), 43mm, under USD 1000.

[@luc3011]

To me hacking movements are essential because they allow me to align perfectly the minute hand with the index and the second hand, I hate when a minute start and the minute hand is slightly misaligned

[@Errornamenotfound-ww7xb]

Best value for money moonphase watch out there is easily the sugess moonphase, I personally own one and love it. It also has a column wheel chronograph.

[@anthonystevens8683]

Picking a single complication for me it has to be the pointer date. At last a date that can be read clearly and never obstructed by another hand, certainly in the case of the Oris Big Crown pointer date Oxblood. I love that watch. It's discreet but readable and helps with dial symmetry.

[@GeeMood]

Awesome complications mentioned. I would love to own a mechanical moon phase watch. Until I do, my G-Shock G- 7900 or my Casio Pathfinder Forester Moon Phase PAS-400B will more than suffice. Great video!

[@paulsteele6120]

The only problem (if you would call it that) is that if you buy the Seagull 1969 with a swan neck regulator and column wheel, is that all is good until you come to service it. Then, if done in a western competent watch repairer, then due to world wide economics it is cheaper (by multiple factions)and more practical to put the old watch to bed and buy a new piece. Chinese manufacturing of an ongoing model have the advantage of high, stable and long production runs!! Mind you, it gives aspiring watchmakers a cheap shot at working on a marvellous movement. I personally love them.

[@leondevermandois4868]

Hey Ted, my Seiko perpetual chronograph has a date pointer and a twenty-four hour mechanical chronograph (vs digital) Seiko SPC251. Coolest sub two-hundred-dollar watch I ever bought. Also, the Seakoss Moonphase 40-N. First I bought the chrongraph you featured, I then bought the moon phase, Love them both. Moon phase for $263. :) Their tourbilion for a little over five hundred might be next (too bad they're ugly). Also, can't believe you missed the Timex fly-back chronograph T2N700ZA. That is a cool one from Timex (although it's hard to recomment Timex these days). I really like the fly back. I wanted the white dial, but settled for the black dial, now it appears, they're all sold out. Also, Timex has a multi- function TW2R57100 that is very comprable to the Orient Sun and Moon, Available at Walmart for $99. I guess the Citizen GMT World Time, the hour hand only moves in one direction, the other changes the date. Also Seiko Age of Discovery World time. With the alarm, it can display three time zones (with two pushers). Bulova offers a few models of skeleton watches, if you're in to Myota. Bulova Hack with the Vetrans Watchmakers Initiative, what a cool watch and a good cause. Thanks for the Video Teddy B. Sean.
