[@chrispenn715]

The quick change battery cover on the Swatch is an excellent idea - dont know why more companies dont do this.

[@3rdstone1]

It's a brilliant feature. I think some digital watches did have it back in the day?

[@mr22guy]

Tons of vintage watches had it. Look at any old Timex for example.

[@Ecksterphono]

SWATCH is kind of of watch now that is best to be overlooked. Good luck with the Sistem 51 irony automatic or even the Flymagic. Great ideas in the automatic movements, however since the COMCO issue mostly everything went quartz in their line of watches. Not that they're bad, but I would like to see more of their mechanical ones as well. When it comes to service of they're all metal Sistem 51 irony automatics, you can't even get a replacement movement or its extremely hard to get if something were to go wrong. Their Nivachron hairspring was a good idea, but it came close to a struggling moment for SWATCH.

[@WatchmakerErik]

The old Bulova Accutrons had a quick access battery door. The reason watch companies probably don't include it is that it adds to the part count, it's another place to leak, and taking off a normal case back just isn't that difficult.

[@johnanth]

I like the transition at 1:36 Jody. I like how you have continued to refine your videomaking, which was already superb, to keep things visually interesting.

[@thewatchfemme4051]

I’ve always loved watches but I fell down the rabbit hole badly the last 6 weeks and have bought 5 watches and am stopping myself from ordering a Duro every hour of the day. Thanks for your knowledgeable content, and without pretension is so refreshing. My collection will always be on a budget. 😉

[@timeandnourishment1961]

I went to an actual shop in Moscow today, and picked up a white dial Scuba Dude for $50 . There was a whole display case full of cheapo Komandirskies , every one of them just under $30. Nice to feel a watch, even if you're wearing rubber gloves. The Amphibia came on a good rubber strap. The other things had straps or bracelets that would have been banned during the Spanish Inquisition, as no one might have expected. To add to the torture, all the low-spec Ks come without self-winding but with the famous Vostok date complication (pay an extra $10-15 for a 2416b auto movement). Great list, Jody. Thanks!

[@gnash58]

I picked up my blue/gold Invicta Pro Diver for $30 on a black Friday sale a few months ago and I have had no issues with it whatsoever. It seems well made, has a Seiko automatic movement, and it looks good on my wrist.

[@JonaJoshProductions]

I’ve got a number of your top 10 Jody, including the Pagani, Cadisen & Casio. Unbelievable value in our $60 or less! I also have a Swatch from circa 1986, with “Halley’s Comet” on the dial!🤣 Bought by my sister as a birthday present. Still ticks along even now.👍🏻😍😎

[@KabobHope]

I'm glad I watched this vid. I think you made a good point about the MechaQuartz movement. I didn't realize it was in so many budget watches. It's a gem. I have the Pagani Cocktail Time and it's a great watch.

[@22bootsy]

Been into collecting watches since i was 5, never found a place that provides value oriented reviews like your channel. Many, many thanks

[@thomaspirnat1889]

Completely agree about Wenger. I picked up a field style watch at a local close out store for $45. Sapphire coated crystal, signed crown, sec hand hits the markers, good strap, nice brushed and polished case...best of all those two words at the 6. Agree with the neg...it is a bit big but great value for money.

[@royfarrand1268]

[@coryames1170]

The Duro is my favorite on this list. I own all three colors. I hope Casio comes out with a white dial version. I agree that the lume needs to be improved on. Also even though it might increase the price a bit, I'd like to see a backlight like the Super Illuminater Casios have.

[@jake-ishere3362]

I used a pencil eraser / a 300 grit sanding block/ the. Used a mix of a steel Brush and rubber dremel abrasive to get rid of the shine on the Cadison bracelet to give it a satin like finish ... came out nice , it’s now attached to a custom Invicta 8926OB custom I’ve built/ deleted crown guards / emblems delete all over the case and custom seiko abolone dial from ali, with ceramic insert and miyota 821a

[@jimmbear3998]

Great video 👍, personally i currently have mostly been buying watches in the $100 to $275 price range as i do like to have a wide variety to wear. However it is great to see a video focusing on lower range watches and providing lots of nice details as these are typically ignored by other watch You Tubers that i find tend to focus and push much more expensive watches (many which are very boring and mediocre just simply way more expensive). I almost bought a Wenger recently but instead spent more and got a Bertucci field watch as i really like the look of the Bertucci and wanted a titanium field watch with 200m water resistance. Good show 🙂

I love the Cadisen, it may be one of the cheapest watches I own but it's also one of the nicest. I've had very few or no comments on most of my other watches but for some reason people seem to really like the cadisen and find it classier than it's budget price would suggest.

[@funkykoval2099]

Got to love the cheaper stuff. I wish I still had the Timex that got me through 5 years in Scouts as a kid. 50M water resistance, but never had a problem with it taking on water at all.

I love your channel. It’s interesting to see watch collecting from a non-rolex or ridiculously over-priced watch perspective. Yes Those high end watches are amazing, but not all can afford that sort of watch (well not anyone really). One watch I am amazed you haven’t covered is the Lip Nautic Ski. Either the original vintage version with the R184 electronic (that’s electronic not quartz) movement, nor the update contemporary version which uses a pretty typical eta automatic movement I believe. Both the vintage watch and the current automatic watch can be bought for less than £500 (or at least that’s how much I have found them for). Lip is a really interesting french brand with some lovely designs especially the aforementioned super compressor diver (the Nautic ski). Jaques Cousteau and his dive crews used them.

[@JustOneMoreWatch]

Thanks mate! Lip are on the list!

[@scottwaldie4979]

Good to see Swatch make the list. I have an automatic 'Irony' from the late 1990's fitted with the 'exclusive for Swatch' non-hack ETA 2842. I think you should do a special Flik-Flak type review aimed at the first watch bought for bairns. I still have my 26mm boy's Timex.
