@@theurbangentry Hey, i wanted to thank you for introducing me to watches and the hobby of collecting these tiny liddle treasures. I am from Germany and went to school there to become a mechanical engineering technician. For my graduation i wanted to buy a watch and went right on the internet to see what brands exist and read the tests about them. Your channel popped up and you reviewed the brands i was interested in. After quite a while i decided to go with a Junghans Max Bill Automatic, since i come from an engineering background i wanted a mechanical watch to celebrate my graduation, also the fact that Junghans is a respected german company made me want to buy one. This watch means alot to me, its the embodiment of my technical knowhow and my new job as an project engineer. (Im going to start working there at September 2.) 😊 I connect my success to it and my drive to achive my goal. BUT i never wanted to brag with a watch, it should mean something to me and for the trained eye of other people it should be a statment for simplistic design and beauty. I hope you enjoyed my story, for me it was important to tell you that. Your videos inspired me to dive head first into this hobby. Best regards from Germany I realy enjoy watching your videos, you have a new follower. PS: Im thinking about buying a SEIKO next, also a company i found out through you.

Love the Day-Date. Spring for the 18238 if you can; the double quick-set is worth it plus the case width drops a bit. I brought a beat-up 18238 and had it refurbished by Rolex who did an amazing job returning the Day-Date to as-new condition with full waterproofing and, importantly they fixed the clasp mechanism (they tend to pop open and get a little loose with wear) so the piece (from 1995) presents and wears as-new. This video was a classy piece of work; capturing the inspiration one feels from wearing a certain model or metal - what it means to the owner is the real deal here. 100% correct too on the subtle appearance, most people think a FYG Rolex is just bling but these older DD models seem to just give off the right hue that only a noble metal can give. A delightful video showcasing one of the best cities in the world NYC as a backdrop to arguably one of the finest examples of horology yet conceived. 10 out of 10!
