Today I answer one of the most frequently asked question I get every day. How does one decide between two watches you equally want to buy? You have done the research, tried them on countless times but still can't make up your mind to pull the trigger. Today I share 5 no no nosense tips that I use when deciding between two watches myself. No matter if you are deliberating between a Seiko SKX009 or an Orient Bambino, a Rolex Submariner and an Omega Speedmaster, this is practical advice I have found useful from my own years of watch collecting.

I finally had surgery today after a two week long painful odyssey of figuring out what was wrong with me. This hobby and this channel have really helped me take my mind off things, and I cannot thank you enough for the hard work you put into the channel. Cheers!

I'm sure a lot of people find these comments corny but I can relate. I did not have surgery but as of late with all the negativity around from people, news, events, politics, covid etc. I'm detached myself from all social media and only watch relaxing KZbin videos like this channel or renovations with no sound lol ... it does the soul good and clears the mind of all the crap going around. best wish on your recovery.

I'm never in that situation. I only buy a watch I can't resist, and there can only be one like that at a time. If you can't decide between two watches, you are trying to use logic where it doesn't apply. The logical thing is not to buy a watch because you don't need one. When you get the irrational desire to buy one specific watch and you can't get over it, then it's the right one.

Those are value watches. Maybe I'm to frugal with my money but those are far from grail watches. I have no problem dropping money on watches so i would buy all these in one purchase rather than chose only one considering these are value watches not luxury, which I feel your statement calling them top tier was trying to insinuate they are too expensive to own all of them which is far from true if your a fool like me who doesnt know what else to spend money on. lol Personally got my eye on the new black titanium casio dw5000 but am going to instead buy a 35th anniversary edition project team tough dw5600 and put an after market metal bezel and bracelet. Beats the price of the proprietary version however still slightly expensive.

This video helped me a lot with a tough buying choice I'm facing. Was considering getting my first Rolex, either a Datejust or a Submariner. I finally decided on getting a Datejust because I already own a Speedmaster 57, which although looks good in a suit, I wanted something more dressy, and the submariner would have been quite similar to the speedy in terms of the "look" with a suit. Now all I have to do is figure out which Datejust! haha. Thanks a lot for all the videos!

Excellent video even though it's an old one. The Speedy is always nibbling away in the back of my mind. My diver box is ticked with an SKX, I have the Rolex dress box ticked with an Oyster Perpetual (it was a gift), so I think it's time for a a Speedy. The Valjoux movement is a workhorse that's serviceable, it looks fabulous and you don't look like a gaudy footballer at the pub. Sorted then, now the search, I talked myself into it.

Two very different watches indeed, but still, it boiled down to these two. And I can now say, I am anxiously awaiting the delivery of my Planet Ocean 8500 43mm. Only thing I am worried about is the height because of the complexity of the movement. Let's see

Some really good points here. When I bought my Black Bay Heritage, I wanted the one with the "smile" dial, and the ETA. Because I wanted a serviceable movement, on that I did not have to send off to Tudor at a premium. I also really loved that watch and had m eye on it for a while and was able to get one for a deal once everyone dumped theirs for the 58. Next, nearly every watch I own I have bought online. The only shops near me are chain, mall-style shops, where your options are very limited. In fact, our local mall, 5 minutes from my house have 4 jewelry stores in it. Three are owned by the same big box company and all have the same brands in it: ESQ, Bulova, Citizen, etc. You aren't going to find any Rolex, Omega, Squale, Tudor, NOMOS, or even Seiko. You have to go online for that. You might get a Seiko or two in Macy's, but even then, it's not any of the models people want, and their selection is much smaller than what they offer from Citizen or Michael Kors.

When I'm trying to decide between two things I try to imagine which one I'd be less disappointed with. If I bought the speedy would I be disappointed that I didn't have the sub, or vice versa. I find that subjective way of thinking about it helps me more than just trying to work out which one I like more.

I had a Speedy. The bezel ring popped off and the helsite crystal scratched easily. Both were easily repair yet annoying. I was also a little nervous about the water resistance. Additionally on my 7” wrist it looked a little big. Ended up selling the Speedy and getting a Sub. The Sub is indestructible and I’ll leave it to my son. Looking for an Explorer for my other son for the same reasons. Something makes me miss the Speedy, though. Classic watch. Great vid, TGV.

Great advice TGV! I just want my next watch to make me feel as "jazzed " in the morning when I put it in on as my Rolex deepsea does!

Thank you Rick, just out of interest, I have to ask, is the DS the only watch to make you feel like that? Best regards, TGV

The Urban Gentry I guess they all do ,the DS just seems extra special .maybe because it's my only Rolex....for now I'm sure the day/date will make me feel that way :)

I’m having a hard time choosing between the Citizen Chrono Titanium Chronograph AT4010-50E and Citizen titanium Promaster Diver BN0200-56E. I know they are not luxury watches but I would like your input about them to decide which one to get. Thanks ahead for your time guys. I love the channel and your content 👍🏽, well done!!!

Nice job TGV. I have 3 G-Shocks for work purposes, very reliable and very tough. My grail away from work is going to be a Panerai. Love the class and simplicity. Taking my time as you suggest, thank you for your input. Stay true my friend.

The 42mm measurement of the Speedy Pro includes the crown guard so it does wear like a slightly smaller watch in my opinion.

I'm having trouble deciding between getting a vintage dress watch in an Omega seamaster or geneve and a newer "vintage- style" Hamilton Intramatic. I don't really have experience with a vintage watch but I love the look of these omegas for dress occasions. The Hamilton looks quite stunning and minimalist. Both of these watches can be fetched around the same price. I suppose my hard decision comes from getting a new watch or one that may or may not have problems due to being 60 or more years old.

I am trying to decide between the Breitling Pilot B-50 and the Omega Skywalker X-33. I am a pilot and I love the classic Speedmaster Moon watch and the Navitimer but The B-50 and the X-33 are more useful to me since I use UTC and Multi-time zone features often. I have been considering Garmin MARQ Aviator for work. It actually has more features and is more affordable. Once I decide on my work watch. The other watches will be more for collecting and augmenting my wardrobe.

Great Tipps, thank you. Actually i want to make a decision between the Speedmaster professional 3861 or the Speedmaster Mark II from 2014. Now i print the face of these two watches out on paper in real size, cut them out and tape it on another watch i wear during my home office. So i can always look at the watchface and feel within my self. I hope i can make a good decision until my birthday 🥳

Hey TGV I've been watching your channel the last 2 years and I really admire all the hard work you put into the channel! I'm a freshman still when it comes to collecting time pieces and I'm also in college so as you can imagine I'm on budget..I've inherited an old venus mechanical watch by my grandfather and I am about to buy my first automatic watch..I'm thinking about something classic and I concluded to Seiko 5 snkl23..I think it's worth it isn't it?..Greetings from Greece and thanks in advance!

I am in this dilemma right now. Speedy or Rolex Sub. I love the simplicity and diversity of the Rolex submariner however, one cannot deny the heritage and history of the speedy (MOTM). Check out an up boxing of the speedy. Astonishing value for money. Looks great too with the nato strap. Chaos!

Much respect for you and your channel Mr; I gotta say you pushed me into the watch collecting world and now well I'm starting to build my collection; i bought me a SKX013K and I'm In love with it but even though I have a small wrist I got the feeling is a little small for me; anyways my question; do you know any stores or anybody that can replace the hands of my skx like you did with yours; I want the Mercedes/peace logo on my baby to make it pop! Thanks for sharing all this knowledge sir! I appreciate it!

Tudor Pelagos blue - vs - Omega Speedmaster Professional Hesalite. I know they’re completely different I’m almost every aspect but I love both equally, roughly the same price point, and I can’t decide between either.
