Hey guys! Remember that there are least a few women watch fanatics here who love both your channels. The Baby G, ref BG169R can be had for $50! 200m, 7 time zones, all the g-shock goodness.. this was the must have of the 90’s and for many of us, along with Swatch, was our gateway drug. I still have and love my very original.. ❤❤

My late dad was presented with a Seiko 5 automatic from Hitachi in 1967.After the first Japanese Turbine instalation on the African Continent at the Athlone Power Station ,Cape Town.That Seiko was still running up until 1994.I think a general service and it would still be working to this day.

F1_556_ That's not normal. Mine loses about 10 seconds a day. Which is pretty normal for a watch in this price range. You should have a watch repair expert take a look at it. Usually checking the watch out is free. Then, pending on cost of servicing or repair, decide if it's worth it to fix it, forget about it, or buy a new watch.

Me too! It was my baby, and I was fascinated every time I would watch the second hand sweep so smoothly (compared to all my eco-drive quartz watches) then it was my beater for about a year of landscaping/handyman work and now she probably loses a minute or more a day. Where I live the only place that'll service it would charge me about as much as what I paid for it back in the day. Sadly they're not as cheap as they used to be, huh? Hey, maybe one day it'll wind up on my kid's wrist, but I'll have to see how I feel about putting it in that kind of danger ; ) Form what I've read/heard, that watch probably brought more people into the market for automatics than just about any other watch since the 00's.

For me, value Casio can’t be beat. I had the early ones, pre g-shock; but in 83 I got a rather physical job and I broke 2-3 watches. I bought a g-shock and what a game changer for me. I wore g-shocks from 84-2018. I still have them, I just just can’t get myself to throw any of them away. They are beat to hell, but they just keep going. I did try and buy the Ironman timex and it broke in a week at work, never again. I have a bunch of Invicta watches, nice looking and feels so nice and you can buy so many at a reasonable price. I’m a bigger guy and I like bigger watches. I stopped wearing watches when I retired. I’m glad to see your list since 95% if not 100% of my watch brands made your list. Casio, Invicta, Swatch and Seiko.

I have 3 duro’s: $35 for blue, $15 for black & gold & $15 for classic black. The black is my favorite-seconds hand hitting the marks perfectly & rotating bezel having no play whatsoever. I put an orange silicone band on for awhile, but went back to the black resin strap for the diver look instead of looking more like a fashion watch. I don’t see why so many people have a problem with the stock resin band? I find it perfectly comfortable & I feel a diver watch should be on this type of band since it’s supposed to be exposed to water. 🔥

I just picked up an SNKK27 on a whim (A blue and yellow "Speed Racer" Seiko 5) off Amazon because the price dropped to $65 for a bit and have been blown away by it. The dial finishing and quality match some much, much more expensive watches I have. It's got so much personality. Like my DW290 (bought at TGV's recommendation and well loved) it's a testament to the fact that price and worth are not the same thing.

This video was wonderful, guys. In fact it, BLOWS MY MIND, that you guys haven’t done it sooner. All of the pieces you recommended are perfectly suited for someone beginning the watch collecting journey. The Casio DW6900 is also a cracking good piece. If some one is looking for the aesthetics of the DW290 (or can’t find on because TGV bought them all) and wants the GShock specs, I would definitely look at it. Multitudes of colors and spec combos. Also, I would recommend any of the Citizen entry level watches. They are on par with any offering from Seiko and don’t have the quality control issues. You can never go wrong with a Citizen. There is a reason it is the biggest watch company in he world! Thank you both so much for the video. It was enlightening and entertaining, as always. Hope you are both well. Onward and upward!

Part of the beauty of the 40mm Invicta Pro Diver is that is available in easily 40+ color combinations. There's at least 25 dial colors. Case & bracelet combinations include Stainless Steel, Two-tone, Gold tone, Black, IP Blue and Iridescent. They're now available with color matching canvas straps. These watches are accurate and reliable. At one point in time I had 18 in my collection; all different. Here's a tidbit a lot of people don't know: If the model# ends with "ob", it has a coin-edge bezel. If not, the bezel is scalloped.

Stainless steel case and screw down case back, 100m WR, 42mm case with 22mm lugs. Beautiful, brushed, fixed bezel that reflects light quite elegantly. The strap it comes with is garbage but the watch itself looks stellar on Nato straps. I love it.

Festina is probably a bit harder for Americans to acquire, but if you like smaller, classic and dressier watches, I think you should consider one of them. The Festina Extra 1948 looks a bit like a cheap Chinese 5$ watch at first glance, but it's a really well made beauty once you got it in your hands. Add 50$ if it was another brand. If you like tank style, they have the F20464 from the Classics series. This one is also a really well made beauty and it has a proper two hands movement too. No cheating here.

And made more of a statement than a different footballer who might have been wearing an Uber Complication with bells and whistles, with an alert to tell you to stop wiping. Just, a casio. factory gold plated strap.. **chefs kiss**

when I was in the R.A.F in the 80's I went through a few of the Casio F-87W watches which were a favourite on Station because we used to get them free at a local Petrol Station if we bought £10 of Petrol. They were good watches

Thank you for the video. I picked up the Casio Duro. It’s absolutely everything you need for going out for a run or walk. Great watch to do errands. Thank you…it feels nice and comfortable on the wrist. Great recommendation!!

I have a G Shock 5600 I purchased in the mid 80’s and it’s still working. It has a metal case and metal screw down case back. I had a little trouble finding the right battery and the outer case is kind of brittle and missing a couple of small pieces but it still works. I keep in the bathroom now.

Amazing choices! The F-91W is an unbeatable classic as well as the 5600 and Duro, although Casio should offer a smaller Duro since Columbus. That Bertucci caught my attention positively. About the Orient 3 Stars, they are extremely famous in Brazil; they dominate the mechanical niche and the market for vintage pieces - most of them in very unique shapes and bold dials - remains very healthy and very attainable too. Regarding Swatch, i would love to see these retro-80s-90s Swatches inundating the watch world.

Great conversation! Love your dynamic. Thanks for sharing!!! By the way, my go-to "beater/everyday" watch is a Bertucci for certain!! (I have 4 of them, 2 of which are titanium with ceramic). That would be on list of 5 for sure (and a DW-5600 G-Shock for sure!). Thanks again.

I do the same thing, buy multiples of my favorite watches. I've got three GW-56 King G-Shocks - different colors (they ended production). I've got three Seiko SRP-637s - different colors (they ended production). I've got two Citizen Eco-Drive divers; BN-0150 (black) and BN-0151 (blue). They still make these; I just love the watch.

You can get some very nice Rotarys for under £100 and Accurist is a brand worth a check surprisingly. However love what both of you have picked.

YESSSSSSS!!!! So true, excellent choice Steve, thank you so much. There was a time even the Sherlock Holmes Rotary Canterbury was under $100. I think they might even still be under $200, not abad at all. Best regards, TGV

This is a really good point - more recognisable in the uk probably, but sub 100 accurist or limit, and then around 1-150 rotary. Rotary in particular is not without heritage and they do a nice navitimer tribute you can get for 150 ish.

Cheap watches are hugely important to our hobby. My favourite watches are F91W Casio, an old 35mm dressy Enicar watch, 5600 G shock, ( and Hamilton pilot pioneer which i don't own yet and its more than $100, but it'll be my next piece for sure) I've sold my omegas and an iwc but keeping those cheaperv watches.... they're light, affordable, beautifully thin (OK maybe not the g shock) and have never lost me huge money and given guilt and regrets like the expensive watches I've bought and sold

One of my all time favorites is my very understated analog Seiko quartz that comes in at just under 5-1/2mm thick. Makes it under the cuff even if the shirt's a little too small. :D

It's crazy to see SNK809s go for like $100-150 now when they were just $70-80 a year or two ago. Great lil watches. The Orient Tri Stars are also decent for automatics though they've got that lil tick to em and don't always come well tuned but c'est la vie. I do love my Casio F-91WC and calculator watch.
