Tudor's Most Controversial & Underrated Watches + Unboxing A Red Ranger & NTH Catalina

[@theurbangentry]

Hello Gentry! Please forgive the 360p. KZbin sometimes take their sweet time to process the video into the full HD I uploaded. Hopefully they will fix it soon. Thank you and have a great weekend, O&U! Best regards, TGV

[@gugamanagadze7451]

I would watch in 240p !!!❤❤❤

[@code6400]

KZbin is very very slow converting to FHD these days!!

[@arisainaramorsolo9673]

Happy Seiko Saturday from the Philippines!

[@cuy50]

This is simply unacceptable Tristano. Most certainly NOT pure class.

[@LuanO7]

Just watch it on the smallest phone you can find: Boom! Mini HD watches to soothe you to sweet horological dreams!

[@blackwood3243]

The part with alpha m and hugo is hilarious.

[@markgiacoletto5952]

Completely agree with Hugo

[@flexfrank1072]

Epic

[@louismathgen]

Did he just destroy alpha m? I love this guy!

[@spikerooney7458]

The videos with Hugo are absolutely the best, they are my favourites!

[@WatchAddictionReviews]

hugo needs his own channel

[@HanRyo611]

The intros are getting absolute works of art in themselves. I was about to piss myself laughing. Simply genious, keep on doing them!

[@jwags24]

The Hugo saga continues ! Yeeesssss!

[@craigturton4940]

Best intro ever! lol

[@usmanriaz5310]

If there is one youtuber who never gets intros wrong or make them exceptionally boring, is hands down TGV and there is no doubt about this. Great video as always :)

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Usman, Very kind of you, you are awesome! Best regards, TGV

[@kennethMblake]

Easily forgiving you for this 360P, because you always put out great quality videos every time. The NTH is a fantastic looking piece. Especially the custom back and the lime… Spectacular. I never really “rated” this type of watch, but now I might just consider it. Thanks for posting this wrist watch check.

[@555Gear]

A proper authentic vintage Ranger is a true grail of mine

[@MrMoxes]

I do hope you briefly talk more about the Catalina by NTH. I saw it and it certainly gave me pause for thought. Very nice looking. Love the hybrid design. Well done.

[@lliameasterbrook6634]

I agree TGV - better safe than sorry, and Once again you show your integrity. It reminded me of something: When I was a boy my father always told me, “No one can take your integrity away from you. Only you can decide whether or not to part with it.” And So I take my hat off to you. Ps. The intro had me in stitches!! I almost spilled my coffee when I saw/ heard Hugo’s dancing. Actual lol cheers from Vancouver.

[@BenArthur]

0:31 I think we were all chuckling with that dinosaur!

[@Beadle87]

Love love love, Hugo!! I feel a new line of merchandise coming up !! X

[@antonyduc990]

This intro is the best! I keep coming back for it. Could we eventually discover a movie unveiling Hugo's dark side and where everything began? The origin of individual rave partying in the wild, etc.

[@mohammadzaman8713]

I'm watching this video while wearing the Catalina!!! The wait was well worth it and it's just about the perfect watch! Capolavoro! The channel has shaped my horological journey and im proud to have a piece of it on my wrist. Congratulations TGV on such a special occasion! (Make sure you don't send it to Hugo to review)

[@arisainaramorsolo9673]

Funniest intro yet! 😂 That Ranger is a perfect everyday, everywhere watch. Happy to see it reviewed here. Hope I get to win the NTH! 🙏🏻

[@abdulsamadalqadri104]

Coolest intro ever. The NTH Catalina looks absolutely gorgeous. I'm a huge fan of Tudor as well and must say that you have good taste. I am also currently saving up for the new Black Bay 58.

[@shawnchinnery663]

I hope you keep charting your own course mate, humour and positivity are impossible to beat. Cheers

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Shawn, as always, very much appreciated and great to hear from you. You are so right, if you can't laugh at yourself and take life too seriously, what's the point right? Best regards, TGV

[@PetrolHead1]

Always a superb friday when you upload a video sir. Carry on!

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you, have a great weekend my friend. Best regards, TGV

[@nocturnalmayhem0]

so either tvg or hugo have great taste in drum and bass? what track was that

[@guillermorodriguez1992]

Hugo's been a bad boy! We wanna see the Daniel Wellington review!

[@danielw.6992]

Whats your opinion about the Tudor Black bay 58 39mm and the new Omega seamaster diver 300m TGV ? Love your content and kind regards from Germany

[@theurbangentry]

Hi Daniel, the Omega I recently reviewed and I gave my opinions then, as for the 58, another great move from Tudor, I love that watch. I might buy one just to review if I wasn't so behind in my reviews. More importantly, what do you think? Thank you, Best regards, TGV

[@danielw.6992]

The Urban Gentry i love both. The new Omega is a beauty with the waves on the dial. But it costs 1000€ (its around 4400€ and the BB58 costs 3300€) more than the Tudor BB. i think i am going to buy the 39mm for myself as a christmas present 🤔 i think the 39mm version fits better with a casual or a suit than the 41mm version

[@andysax1071]

Great intro and video, although I can't get that excited about the dodgy red Ranger. The NTH looked amazing!

[@kbbarton1]

Another smashing good video. :) Regarding the authenticity of the Ranger, I decided to have a look in my trusty "Tudor Anthology" by Alberto Isnardi. On p. 266, it reads "This is one of the most counterfeited models. Various counterfeited dials can be found around. As illustrated in the official catalogues, the logo on the dial is only the Shield and never the Rose. According to the most accepted thesis, the writing "Ranger" is in white color, despite appearing often in red." Looks like returning it was a good call.

[@mikev3245]

The Tudor is an interesting watch but from my laptop's screen the red printing did not look in keeping with the rest of the dial. The red looks too new and I would have expected some fading of the red given the amount of patina on the hands and the dial having received enough exposure to the sun and elements (possible humidity/moisture) to turn blue. I think you did well sending it back.

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Mike, Best regards, TGV

[@joshuabriggs7114]

Agreed! On camera, that Tudor screamed "FAKE". The red printing looked especially suspect. Good call TGV! Too good to be true.

[@sciencestuff699]

I was looking for that comment. I have never hold a genuine Rolex in my hands, but I restore and repair vintage watches and electric instruments as my hobby and that red paint looks new to me, it even looks like if it was painted over a layer of white paint.

[@YourUpstairsNeighbor]

Great video! If I could have your opinion, what thick replacement springbars would you put on an Orient Ray II? The springbars it comes with seem thin to me...

[@EagleJim62]

Very good questions about authenticity. That Hugo is a ghastly chap!

[@Bobsbargainbasement]

Hi TGV! Seemed when you put it on wrist the Red ain’t has a bit too much glossiness to it, but it could be me...... great Intro! Love Hugo!

[@emilspasov883]

Great video as always! I would love to see the alpha M's watch collection trough your eyes.

[@timschubardt]

Great video. The intro with Hugo is hilarious.:)

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Tim :D Best regards, TGV

[@les6paul]

Man, Hugo’s the worst. You’ve gotta quit hanging out with that dude.

[@theurbangentry]

LOL, trust me, I try to avoid him as much as possible, things always go missing. A rotter indeed. Thank you Paul, Best regards, TGV

[@benjaminbradshaw3995]

the alpha M joke at the beginning was perhaps the best niche horology joke ive seen

[@MrNubix]

Ah finally 1080p! Hey TGV, have you ever thought about giving the Traser watches a closer look? Especially because the tritium vials are essentially the grandsons of the here used tritium paint. The watches are made by the same company who makes thoses tritium vials.

[@theurbangentry]

WOW. that took donkeys!!! Traser are on the radar, Thank you sir for reminding me. Best regards, TGV

[@almoscola8684]

Loved the intro :0) Thank you for the content on the Ranger, definitely food for thought. I hope you wear the Catalina in the very best of health!

[@PixelVogue]

Hugo on that shocking Alpha video LMAO! Epic

[@HanRyo611]

Better than that, Hugo is into Drum & Bass - so genious

[@Rosakru]

I loved this video. I love your excitement. Don't stop TGV. After just purchasing my new Tudor Black Bay Blue and my personal grail (Rolex Explorer 214270) all in the same week ... I now fully and completely understand your amazing excitement in your love of fine timepieces. Keep the videos rolling.

[@koen8844]

Awesome intro! This channel is the best way to recover from an horrendous day at work 👍. The Catalina looks amazing! I'll make sure to cross my fingers a couple of times until the next upload! O&U, regards, Koen

I saw that Alpha video when it came out. His own subscribers were ridiculing him in the comments as being a sellout. Thanks, you are what is good about the internet.

[@matt1315s]

The Red Ranger is an interesting one. I had that same feeling when I saw that the magnifier was off a bit. Better to be safe than sorry. I like the Catalina it checks all the right boxes.

[@rever-mi6qz]

@@theurbangentry I think you made the right choice sir! I would rather get a common vintage Ranger that have no doubt or spend a little(?) more for a 1016.

[@JohnWright-si8dh]

Great video as always. I personally love the North Flag, an acquired taste maybe, but I think it’s really cool. Would be great to see it reviewed one day. All the best from Bishop’s Stortford, England.

😂😂😂 the intro is hilarious, your videos are more and more entertaining!

[@bhargavshriram624]

TGV, I would love to make the dial on my vintage timex tropical. How can I do so?

[@victorriga348]

Brilliant intro, Hugo is having fun in the jungle. I love Tudor, I own a Grantour purchased just at the relaunch for less than 2000€, great watch ! Good decision to send the Ranger back.

[@redpillsociety6479]

So glad I found this channel

[@Cfibrett]

Hugo rocking out made my day. hilarious

[@khronokraze]

Great video. I think that Tudor to be returned is the right decision. It will never sit right with you with the ever looming air of doubt and uncertainty about its true origins and authenticity. Can never truly enjoy it with that pulsating in the back of your mind. You deserve better.. We all should given a similar situation. And, I think your experience and thinking goes beyond a questionable 100% authentic watch, but if you have any doubts about your recent watch purchase and it's just not feeling it's hitting the spot just right or otherwise lacking full satisfaction, save yourself the itch that can never be scratched and return it before you have to go through the hassle of flipping it with the negatives you already know you wouldn't want others to experience.. But, may need to obscure your knowledge and opinions about when trying to sell such a timepiece. And, I have to admit your Catalina is quite a cool NTH/WatchgGauge collaboration.

[@paulhoughton5431]

Really enjoyed that, many thanks so informative 👍

[@iainhuddart8496]

Love the channel and your content, kinda surprised that you haven't reviewed the upcoming Direnzo watch, what an absolutely beautiful watch.

[@FatController23]

Heya, can you review the new Tudor Ranger? It’s a beautiful watch!

[@docholliday4292]

Hugo moments lol, good decision on the Ranger and the Lume on that NTH looks great, looking forward to your next video as always top notch stuff.

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you sir! :D Best regards, TGV

[@waldenswonderfulworldofwat3129]

That Catalina Watch is stunning! :) That intro was pretty great too. My father is going on one of the legs of the sail boat race around the world and he is wondering what watch he should buy for that occasion, but that is also wearable in other settings as well. What would you recommend? Thanks!

[@kennethMblake]

Further, that Tudor advisor is a sleek beauty. Great little piece, And one of the things I enjoy about your videos is that you go into the history and the detail of the heritage of many of these pieces. Therefore allowing us to enjoy with greater appreciation what the everyday joe sees as “ a watch”. Please accept sincere compliments and gratitude, sir. Enjoy your weekend.

[@hagakureone1639]

Very good Video TGV!! This reminds me more to your earlier video, i really appreciate that

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Gregor :D Best regards, TGV

[@daniel_gallardo808]

Perhaps it's because it is lunch time where I am but I thought Hugo was saying. Tally ho you saucy burgers in the thumbnail. Also love the intro TGV!

[@1CreativeRider]

The URBAN GENTRY Catalina looks fantastic! Love the 40 mm size... the lume... Just surprised the case is without crown guards...?!

[@casillasb]

I'm digging the Catalina...that lume is crazy cool! Laughing so hard at Hugo dissing Alpha M, but to be fair he was making the obvious assertion that quartz watches are more accurate than mechanical. His shameless product endorsements can be a bit annoying (i.e. MVMT), but I loved your cameo on his channel TGV! Alpha M also has a sweet mini Rolex collection: Milgauss, GMT Master II and my recent heart-trob, the Everose gold Yachtmaster on the Oysterflex strap...oooohmyyyy. Great vid TGV...I'm currently Tudorless, I NEED one! @Guy Parker has me pining for the North Flag!!! Onward and upward gents!

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Blasé. As always, I could not agree more. It would be amazing to review Alpha's collection one day. Best regards, TGV

[@deadeyedsam850]

@@theurbangentry That Catalina is exactly the type of watch i like the most, a dive style case with high WR and a aviation style dial.

[@timv1.082]

I hope someone won’t mind answering a quick question. I just ordered my first Seiko Flightmaster. I understand the lug width is 21mm. Does this mean that I need to buy special 21mm nato straps? Or can I use a 20mm that just sent quite the right fit? Any thoughts on this, and where I can find a quality 21mm strap if that’s necessary? Thank you! I adore this channel.

[@JohnnyParanoid]

Hugo has a lot of cheek calling you a "bloody chav"! Quite right to return it. If there's any doubt, there is no doubt. Thanks so much for bringing it in for us to have a closer look at, though! Cheers!

[@RevLev06]

Question: to determine authenticity, could you have opened up the watch and checked serial numbers on the movement? Pocket watches have serial numbers stamped on the movements when I have checked. Just curious - all the best.

[@theurbangentry]

Normally I would indeed do that, but since I decided to return it I did not want to risk damaging it. However, you are indeed absolutely spot on. Thank you RKL, Best regards TGV

Great vid TGV - bit weird seeing Alpha in one of your vids, bit like seeing Homer Simpson appear in Family Guy! Catalina looks awesome. I have the Heritage Ranger, 47mm lug-lug means it doesn't wear big, I have a 6.75" wrist and it looks great, best do-it-all watch I've ever had and easily the best alternative to the Explorer there is - in fact it's truer to the original Explorers in design than the modern Explorers are in my opinion 👍🏾
