Simply the BEST watch review channel on KZbin. Interesting, informative, no BS, no "personality cult". Congratulations sir!

[@thewatchhipster3605]

Agree!

[@watchfinder]

Thank you, that means a lot

[@kierenmoore3236]

Agreed. Armande, was right up there too, but since he's revealed himself, a cult has built up around his hair ... ... ;P Love this channel (both, actually). Top of the Pops!! :D

[@imjustlookingformydog896]

Kieren Moore when did he do a face reveal?

[@fatherscottalbergate]

Agreed!

[@Nord_Mann]

Bought my first watch today. Think I’ve chosen wisely. It’s the Monaco Steve McQueen Edt. Not the flashy Gulf Edt. Very happy owner! Timepiece for life I reckon

[@Nord_Mann]

James Tudor still wear it proudly every day since getting it. On all occasions🤩

[@Nord_Mann]

James Tudor apology accepted. It’s important to appreciate the mind set of others. I’m not a collector and don’t really give much thought into the technicalities of a watch. I’m too busy tinkering with my Porsches. Just appreciate the story of the Monaco and the design, I think, is better than any Submariner or Patek Philippe. Besides, wearing a house on ones wrist isn’t my style and I appreciate the understated looks of the Monaco. Wearing a golden cock on my wrist is just laughable to me. My sons will inherit this piece one day. To me the value is the history it will represent anyway. Money wise it’s already like zero dollars in my mind. Just visited the dealer for a tune up and stole (bought COVID-19 cheap) two quartz TAG’s. One for each of my boys to their confirmation next year and the year after.

[@Nord_Mann]

James Tudor driving the shit out of them, with my McQueen Monaco Calibre 11 on my left wrist😊 Live life as you want it to be. Our sons are lucky boys❤️

This video is basically two watches interacting like sock puppets.

I generally don't like rectangular watches, but this one is a beauty.

[@ambc8970]

I absolutely love rectangular and tank watches. And the monaco is a beauty. I bought one 2 weeks ago. Calibre12. Black monochromatic dial. I love it.

[@Ride_on54]

I’m the opposite I prefer square watches because there’s less of them made most a round

[@dipimage1935]

You're the drug of my evenings. I don't know how you "resource" these amazing beauties but it's sure this is a project that deserves to be created. It has it's place in history.

[@moderatefkr6666]

This watch always brings to mind one name: Steve McQueen - THE man's man.

[@jscordoba3]

This is my favorite youtube channel. Such well made, relaxing yet informative videos

[@mikeffl6606]

OMG This is QUALITY, Both the watches and videos.

[@rosssoutherland8118]

I had one until UPS lost it! Then they refused to pay the vintage price. They only paid me for the reissue. Shame on UPS!!! Go FedX

[@irfanbaig87]

Lucky you

[@mahasamana]

the real one

[@WatchGeek]

Great video as usual, and congrats on including Seiko 6139, a watch often totally ignored in "First Automatic Chronograph" articles and videos 👍

[@andycarr9722]

Saw one of these today. Fell for it right away.

[@sack943]

The blue dial Monaco is gorgeous

[@ozaawaa56]

Stunning dials... just beautiful!

[@clementcelma]

Congratulations on one of the highest quality channel on KZbin, period ! Would love to see you compare Navitimer vs Sinn 903. Best of luck from Switzerland !

[@tanishqgandas4985]

This is my favourite tag heuer

[@SevenDeMagnus]

Cool, iconic and distinct, though little whimsical.

[@jtwu8931]

Thoroughly enjoy the presentation, well done!

[@TimeAndCrown]

Amazing video, story and watches :)

[@watchfinder]

Thank you, much appreciated

[@tezzanewton]

Awesome photography. I love the piece of dust hitching a ride on the seconds hand.

[@m3chris1]

Have the Monaco still looking for an el primero

[@alfredosulecio2344]

Thanks so much for this reminding of such a great creation back in time. I just love the Monaco but specifically the Monaco 69. Could you please make a review of it. Thanks and greetings from Guatemala.

[@thedr.feelgood]

SUPERB ..... As usual , a fascinating insight into a watches history. These video's are the BEST for short, sharp facts - with excellent simple presentation !

[@RobbieKhan]

Can't believe I just found this channel! Eyeing up the Gulf special edition to upgrade from my Ahoi Atlantik at some point in the near future. I really really love the Monaco Steve McQueen colours edition in Calibre 11 configuration, naturally, but the Gulf striping and special edition title just win it for me. And at 39mm, is just that bit more wrist friendly, for my sizing.

[@ridingdreamer]

Did you get it? Mine is on order.

[@jdstarek]

Fantastic as per usual. Funny that there was so much competition between Zenith and Heuer... those are the two pieces I'm looking at now. I hope to acquire both eventually (El Primero Chrono, Monaco Classic chrono).

[@watchfinder]

Thank you. That's my motto: "Why not have both?"

[@thewatchhipster3605]

Hats off as always. Amazing narration and video production.

[@watchfinder]

Appreciated, thank you.

[@gtrman9706]

I own a Heure Monaco,pre Tag.Lovely watch.

Would love your take on a Grand Seiko Springdrive

[@watchfinder]

We don't see many of those-next one we get we'll be sure to feature!

[@mrbud8524]

Calibre 11 Monaco steeve mqueen blue is the real deal, a stunning looking watch. Going to add this Badboy with my ROLEX Submariner & panarai pam005.

[@mrfuriouser]

That's a heavy-hitter collection right there. Nice!

[@historynmystery7637]

i have tag heur monaco which needs to b restored. and how to know about its authenticity

[@andyroper1613]

The local prestige watch shop guy wanted £17k for an original square Steve McQueen TAG Heuer( 'Le Mans')Monaco chronograph back 15 years ago! madness! Great Film though!

[@insydegroup]

You are the best watch channel! Period. Thank you =)

[@mell3109]

Which direction should you wind the watch? I wondered if the movement has just been rotated meaning you should wind it down the way,or is the movement mirrored so you should wind it up the way. I have this watch but it doesn’t say in the book.

[@FlyingCow53]

Please review the Zenith el primero 1969 as well :)

[@watchfinder]

It's on the list!

[@Optidorf]

Excellent review: factual, to the point and with an interesting story.

[@watchfinder]

Thanks very much!

[@SkywhiteChannel]

Always love the back stories of the watches you review. Another great video. Thank you!

[@sakadabara]

Outstanding design, indeed!

[@AhmadAlAjeel]

One of the best tag heur watches, but the crown on the other side was really confusing, not something i was used to, i wished it was on the right. I would say thats the only major con of the watch, and pet peev of many watches for me. Crowns and chronograph buttons should be on the right, helium escape valves on divers should be on the left.

[@valebliz]

Great review as always.

[@watchfinder]

Appreciated!

[@grimmer2005]

6th date, isnt centered at the watch to the left.

[@watchfinder]

I think the watch was heading towards midnight, so the date change mechanism was engaged

[@grimmer2005]

But in that case its going the wrong direction..

[@AudriusN]

Superb videos. Review with historical background is fa more interesting. Unlike spec sheet reviews. I can read it myself.

[@prakashpaul7348]

Sir can you please do a video on Quinting transparent watch.

Not a fan of rectangles watches. But this one....

I do not like 1 green eggs and ham and 2 modular chronographs. This would be the ONLY one i would even consider buying.

[@ersayat73]

Advised pls...should i buy Monaco Gulf edition or the Zenith Elprimero or speed master?which one

[@juniorjr5328]

El primero. The only automatic chronograph calibre that is good enough to be used by rolex Daytona for almost 12 years

Is there any possibility that you will do more reviews on IWC watches? By the way, I definitely love your content!

[@casslyyong4678]

Hi WatchFinder! Great video as always! It would be nice if you could talk a little about the Zenith Pilot Type 20 Extra Special Bronze. I know this watch has been in the market for quite awhile, but a comparison between the Zenith and IWC Big Pilot would be interesting I guess. Looking forward to your opinion! Keep up with the great contents! :D

[@DeepakPatel-js4cj]

What's the difference between caliber 11 and caliber 12?

[@reconforsales7708]

[@alextudorache1134]

Grand seiko review ? Lovely story as always !

[@D3Vlicious]

Still waiting on TAG to make a Verstappen edition, considering that Max considers the Monaco Titan gifted to him during that race a lucky charm.

[@reverseattack555]

why there is a camera on your table ? Why ?

[@NahyerAraved]

Reverse Attack That camera itself is a film camera, where in the old days, contains no electronics other than the light meter, while everything else are mechanical. Probably the same philosophy as automatic watch that contains no electronics at all?

[@Jan-Birkner]

Cant afford the Calibre 11 however considering buying the Calibre 12 next year. Any thoughts?

[@ignacpavic]

Buy Calibre 11, its only 500$ more.

[@asdfgosu]

just add some more wrist shots and it's gonna be best review channel out there!

[@liu002s]

Hello, just revisiting this video, as I saw another very attractive square watch, Girard Perregaux vintage 1945. Would you be happy to review the watch/model line and share your wealth of knowledge about the watch brand? Thanks. Your sincere follower, Sheng

[@jovanjovanovic7610]

Is it true that TH uses Seiko movements?

[@robiulahmed]

It's not entirely true. TAG Heuer bought the intellectual property of a Seiko movement, which they then modified. This became the 1887 movement. Other TAG Heuer watches are completely in house, but they also have their fair share of ETA movements as well. They are, in essence, broadly the same as their competitors (Omega, Breitling, IWC) etc. There is a popularised movement among watch snobs that they're inferior, and this is mainly to do with the fact that they also sell cheaper watches.

[@jovanjovanovic7610]

@@robiulahmed Thanks man, very nice 👍

[@bighimey]

I own a Seiko 6139 from the Japanese market with a serial number that easily pre-dates this fair.

[@tariqyork4249]

Really enjoying vids like this and the RO vs. Nautilus. Think a more appropriate video title could be used though. As interesting as this is, it definitely isn't a review.

[@WolfTrader101]

Who is the man narrating? I recognise the voice?

[@Dongorgon777]

I wish they would use the original Chronomatic Calibre 12 in their 50th anniversary models.

[@andrewjackson8089]

Is this a different voice over to now….I’m lost.

[@z10ffi]

The date in the blue one is terribly centered. it's almost all the way to the right

[@ryanray6215]

Watchfinder & Co. Please be a little bit different from the rest of the " oatmeal " when setting the time on your pieces at 10:10 . Otherwise you are amazing . Thank you for making such a wonderful videos .

[@matcaballes]

The application of red at 5:19 seems a bit sloppy.

[@watchfinder]

Bear in mind the magnification-the deviance of that edge is probably a twentieth of a millimetre!

[@mrfuriouser]

You need more experience with high-magnification in video...

[@afarhan21]

Great story

[@harishobh9570]

Amazing could you plzzz do the patek world time 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@watchfinder]

Sure, we'll put it on the list!

[@jdstarek]

I'd love to see some videos on the IWC Portuguese hand-wound, and whatever you think would be the most logical competition (maybe the JLC master)

[@watchfinder]

Ooh, good call. JLC seems like a good bet as a comparison.

[@ZGRAKIJU]

jesse pinkman approved

[@possessedslig]

Defintely a cut above the other watch review channels

[@GabrielTan1980]

The speck of dirt on the indices is so distracting lol

[@1400Nelson]

That's why you should never do macro shots of your watch. Once you see the flaws you'll never look at the watch the same way as you did before.

[@fernandomunera4494]

the 30 seconds discrepancy on the 2 watches is killing me!

[@oysterman962]

Zenith may have announced the first automatic chrono but Seiko was the first to also incorporate the vertical clutch column wheel into an automatic and it was the first to be used in space and arguably the first to be sold on commercial basis. Yet these Swiss watches get all the credit.
