In this video I share my top 10 best watches of 2024 and 10 worst watches, including impressive timepieces and brands that have taken things to the next level with their new releases this year...and brands that have at best disappointed and at worst frightened and dismayed watch enthusiasts with their latest offerings. Join me for this annual fun end of year video where we'll take a look back at the good, the bad, and the unsightly of the watch world. What do you think about the watches featured in this video? And what are your picks for the best and worst watches of 2024? Please share in the comments!

The worst of 2024 goes to Patek with the Cubitus. Not only a extremely uninspired design, but also eternally connected to that god awefull PR statement.

Really a shame. It’s one of those things (which you see examples of in all industries) where the thing itself is fine - even great - if it existed in a vacuum. It’s a shame as it could’ve been fully, or at least partially avoided.

I would disagree after seeing it in person. Will it go down as a top 5 Patek of all time? Probably not, but given the perverse cyclical nature of watch culture, I’m sure in 2050 there will be some weird run for 2024 Cubituses. I sincerely think the outcry for the watch has more to do with the CEO and his off base remarks.

Great video, once again. A nice cross-section of great watches. My favorite from your video is definitely the Hanhart Aquasphere. I have it myself and wore it for many days until it was replaced on my wrist by a new Squale. As a Squale fan, you should definitely take a look at this one: the Squale X Chronofactum 1521 UCB, released just a few days ago. For me personally, it's the most beautiful Squale yet. I opted for the NoDate version and have been wearing it ever since. A really beautiful watch, clear and unagitated and reminds me a little of a rarely encountered legend.

5:37 - "Tooltastic" is one of my favourite words and I can only think of using it on watches. I'm a fan of Victorinox, they really make an effort with their products, and not only watches. Have you tried their fragrances? The classic bottles fit so well on the hand, even the texture has a nice feel with the satin finish.

The design aesthetic of the Japanese can swing from totally constrained conservatism and conformity......to unique and original avant garde beauty. I think that is why your sentiment resonates so true. Some of Seiko and Citizen designs are so original and groundbreaking that they would never come from the minds of European brands.

At 17:52 you mention that we've heard all of this before. I haven't, and I'm curious if you could make a playlist where you discuss the deeper histories of these companies. I know you do that in pretty much every video, but maybe you could choose the ones that are most interesting/important historical subject matter? Those 15 minute history lessons are easily my favourite parts of your videos and I enjoy rewatching them.

Great list - the super seville, the vertex, and the KSK are total hits for me. Really looking forward to your review of the Vertex, and count my vote for a review of the KSK, too! The bracelet on that one looks incredible. We only disagree on Hanhart - certainly not about their killer new diver, but about the Preventor - it's the only thing keeping the Vertex from being my clear number 1 for the year and is absolutely on my own year end list. While I appreciate your journalistic integrity in not including it, good grief is it a fantastic release from that brand.

You’ll be back soon man and get back the watches you bought. I’m saying this because I’m also losing my job and also have to sell other collectibles like my warhammer 40k and sports cards. It sucks. But I rather sell that than my watches for now. It’s a struggle out there

Ah jeez Dennison making a comeback out of nowhere. I got one by accident a few years ago, when I inherited a dennison cased waltham hunter from 1905. By the standards of the day, it would be considered low to mid tier, but the fit and finish is incredible, and holding up very nicely almost 120 years later. The movement is astonishingly beautiful, and it keeps better time than some automatic seikos I've owned that were a tiny fraction of its age. Really shows the level of dedication and the skill required to be a watch factory line worker back then. Keeper for sure.

Since my most recent buy was a BB Chrono S&G (but on a black nato not a nasty S&G bracelet) I have to disagree on the BB Chrono hate. I mean I am not saying that the pink couldnt be a bit more pink, a bit more "Bold" as Tudor markets their watches, but cmon the BB Chrono is one of the best looking chronos out there and wears actually better than expected. I am really in love with mine - my other watches hate me for it :)

Hi TGV, I’ve used to watch your videos several years ago. You really got me into watches in my early twenties. I’ve recently got back into the hobby, and I’m glad to see your channel is high and flying. Your production quality is top notch and you have a way with words that so few creatives can come near. I remember buying my skx013 after seeing your passion for your skx007. I then followed up that purchase with numerous other Seikos! I’m getting married soon, and I’m looking to buy myself a watch to commemorate this moment, amongst some achievements I’m proud of. Being small wristed and having a modest budget, I wanted to get your opinion on which new watch I should buy? I really do want to buy NEW. I’ve narrowed it down to the explorer 36mm and the black bay 54. I understand that both are absolutely different watches in every sense. But for multiple reasons, I’m drawn to both and they both make absolute sense to me. I wanted your input should you see this message. Even if you have any other suggestions, I would love to hear them! I love divers. But I’ve always dreamed of owning a Rolex - never the Explorer, mind you! I want to keep this watch forever in my collection. A collection which I may not add to for a long time. Have a wonderful week ahead! Thanks for reading my long message :)

About Studio Underdog...... "They've got be joking"..... You said it and you got it right at last. I wouldn't buy the pizza dials but many have. They're also only available as a takeaway at certain watch events which again shows a sense of humour. This brand doesn't take itself too seriously and I like that. They have become over hyped sure, but they were born out of one man's frustration at having nothing to do during the pandemic lockdowns, and with zero financial backing beyond crowd funding. To be applauded, surely?? Nice to see Dennison back in the game but this watch is not for me and it's a long way from the vintage watches the name brings to mind. Vertex is a great rebirth but they are not cheap. I bought the Hanhart flyback chrono. The brand is seriously underrated. Interesting video.

My favourite episodes have always been your audience collection reviews, I love seeing people from different walks of life and different tastes (and budgets!) show off not only their pieces, but their love for those pieces and the stories behind them. I've never felt I had enough of a "collection" to contribute, but after finally acquiring my latest addition (no spoilers!) I now feel I have what I can proudly call an eclectic collection and would love to share!! (I edited as I called you TWG - my favourite tea makers in the world, check them out, but sorry I meant TGV of course 😣)

That Vertex is super sharp. Also, I must admit, I like the gold Deepsea. Way out of my price range, but yeah, if I had that kind of money, I'd gladly buy and wear one.

I think this was a great year for the microbrands. Nivada of course, as you mentioned, but also countless other brands. I think we have to give credit to the increasing availability of impressive, affordable movements as well, like the newer GMTs from Seiko and Miyota.

So true, but can you imagine the sh%t storm had I put our RM2 in there. The least covered GMT micro brand of the year! 😅😉 Good for Marc not playing that pay to play game, it's so wrong. Thank you my friend, Best regards, TGV

13:37 I really like that Bulova Super Seville. A clean, neat design, a handy and easy to read date complication, one of the most accurate movements _full stop,_ a dab of of lume, a long "power reserve" on account of being a quartz movement and a sweeping seconds hand? Not just cool: Ice cold.🥶 All it's missing is a water resistance rating of at least 50m.

Top 10 are brutally awesome (except maybe Breitling, which is kind of meh). I don't fancy field watches, but that Vertex is insanely good!!! And Alpina looks very premium, would never say no to that one. Great video! 👌

Disagree with the Studio Underd0g pick. You can't take them too seriously. It is about whimsy and a great mechanical chrono at a great price. I'll suggest the Studio Underd0g slot be occupied by the ridiculous Tag Formula 1 x Kith series that came out this year. That was nothing but a cash grab of little value and a confusing reversal of direction for a brand that looked like it had turned a corner and was heading in a positive direction.

Although the kith and tag collab was dog shit. Studio underdog seem to either pay off or just aren’t a serious brand either. Too expensive if you go on a sun vacation anf want to use it 😊

Huge fan of Alpina. Hope the Citizen ownership will prop the brand up. Hanhart is on a roll. Love all their new references. The pink Tudor gave me instant indigestion as soon as I saw it. The Pizza watches make me want to regurgitate. As usual Tristano, we share very similar tastes in watches. Thank you for your work!
