As a robber myself, I find this video very useful. Thanks Nico

Pretty sure the London Moped robbers are going to watch this and learn.

The G-Shock GA-2100 has been viewed over 400 times today on the official website. I hope they’re paying Nico a nice commission

New video idea: History lessons by Nico. Episodes where Nico tells us about the history of different brands. One brand per episode.

Nico and Hublot should have a Netflix show 😂

I freaking love nico I’m not financially stable enough for most of the watches but he has sparked my love for watches and the budget series has helped me start a collection of watches that I love thanks so much for the series and I love your videos

Wife got me a Zodiac Super Seawolf for my 30th birthday and I absolutely love it. My first Swiss watch and just love how striking looks and love their history. Glad to see Zodiac mentioned.

Highly appreciate seeing Nico finally talk positive and passionately about watches that aren’t several thousands of pounds and completely unattainable for most of the people,watching. Hearing him talk about watches that are a couple hundred is a lovely thing to see for a product that’s so often associated with snobs.

The seiko dial is positively mesmerizing! It’s such an underhyped watch!

Love this video, finally you are talking about micro brands the didn't see the light that also has amazing build quality, I would love you to do a top 10 in different categories, like top 10 divers, dress, ext.... (affordable and not get robbed watches).

The “you can’t round it twice had me rolling”🤣🤣 5:17

Dude this is the video that I’ve been waiting and wanting from you guys! No hype pieces or expensive price tags, just a good explainer and why you like them, it’s class

My favorite thing about Nico in this video as a Puerto Rican fan, is how he pronounced Clemente differently every single time! GOD TIER

Great video Nico! Absoluty fun to watch and cool mainly affordable watches. Thank you!!!

Thanks for this!! its nice to see some lower cost excellent watch brands getting some love!

As someone interested in watches, and just getting into them, I think it'd be nice to see watches that are sub-$1,000, and are still timepieces that are great. I'm in the Timex/Citizen/Seiko budget myself

I have a Tissot PRX Powermatic and would definitely recommend, looks great for the price and goes well dressed up or down!

Saw this video as soon as it was posted. The Tissot PRX Midnight Sky looked amazing and I was happy that it was still in stock, bought one immediately. Just literally over 12hrs later its completely sold out!!! Thanks Nico!!!

Fantastic video, mate! Refreshing to be talking about incredible watches that are more affordable. Definitely dig the Hamilton Intra-Matic and the Seiko Presage.

I love my tschuy-vogt a15 crusader. Great looking watch I get compliments on all the time. Not flashy at all but can be worn with basically anything.

I’ve owned a couple Tissot PRC 200’s over the years and I loved that watch. I had a black face and blue face. For around $500 they are a reasonably priced watch and they feel really good on your wrist.

I bought my Tissot Gentleman 80 a few months ago after watching Nico, love it. Get complimented, it's comfy, it's pretty. Price don't matter when quality and looks are there.

Just started watching your channel,I must say your very entertaining and informative,a step above the rest.Great video

Nice to see the 1926 getting its come-uppance. It's a good piece and a compelling value under $2k. Wear mine when I don't want to draw attention, but still want to enjoy what's on the wrist.

If you're wondering why the Oris made 3000 Big Crown Roberto Clementes, that's because Roberto Clemente finished his baseball career with exactly 3000 hits. Only 33 players in MLB history have at least 3000 hits.

Happy to see Grönefeld mentioned somewhere. I haven't seen them around on youtube a lot. I discovered them a while back and absolutely love their watches. Will probably never be able to afford one, but they are absolutely some of the most beautiful watched I have ever seen.

Absolutely nailed it with the #1 watch on the list. Literally can't go wrong with it. It's affordable, durable, and will look good with about everything

Is London really getting that bad?? Last month I watched a TikTok where the London Patek store made a guy leave the store with his watch box in a Whole Foods bag!?!

I know everyone has them now but the tissot prx should definitely be high on this list, great watch

Love these videos. Great editing.

loving this channel already

Great video! I was laughing out loud during most of it. Love seeing affordable watches getting some love.

'Nothing wrong with a Seiko, unless it says Grand in front of it' you crack me up Nico!

The Seiko and the Hamilton were my personal favs; particularly the Seiko. I'm more of a fan of blues like the Hamilton, but something about that shade of seiko's green really tickled my fancy.

I feel like the dynamic between Nico and the video director is underrated. Chemistry for days!

FINALLY Gronefeld getting recognition. Their open casebacks are absolutely stunning especially for a new brand.

Awesome video Nico & the Team! Happy Halloween everyone! Stay safe tonight

I recently decided I was going to get a watch to help me stay off my phone for long periods of time and I decided I want something with an alarm to remind me when to take my medications. I decided to not go too crazy I remember back in the 90s I liked Timex's indiglo watches, so went on Amazon to look for a basic digital Timex indiglo watch and I found a Timex Ironman 30 on sale for $35 Canadian down from 60 so I went through that. The Timex Ironman is a perfect design for me because it fits with my 1990s style wardrobe it's going to reliably be able to tell the time it wasn't too expensive I was able to get it in Black it has a few alarms it has the option to have two time zones and it has the indiglo feature I was dead set on getting. Needless to say I'm pretty excited about it getting here in a couple of days. Was happy to get a watch I liked that happened to be 42% off when I decided to go watch shopping. If down the line I decide to get another digital watch for myself I'm going to go with a 1980s/1990s style Casio with the backlight similar to the indiglo feature that Timex has and for the time being I'm perfectly content with the Timex I bought for myself. I can appreciate higher-end watches without necessarily needing one myself I personally like my late 20th century style digital sports watches but that's just my personal preference.

Your videos make me want to wear a watch again. I used to wear one daily, but I stopped due to work. My watches aren't anything to drool over, but I enjoy them.

Ooh, one of the rare moments when Nico talks about underrated/micro brands.

As someone who lives in a country where anything shiny on the wrist catches the eyes of robbers, I feel like the only safe option here, really, is the G-Shock HAHAHA. Or most budget Casios, for that matter. Truly God-tier.

😂🤣😅 I had everyone here at work cracking up 😂🤣😅

Can I just say that Nico has made me really interested in watches and I have started my own watch collection 😊 1 regal 1 omega seamaster 300 and 1 Hamilton American Classic Jazzmaster

You've gotten me interested in Zodiac now, I think they look really cool!

I never get tired of the Hublot jabs Nico throws everytime.

Wow!!! Never thought I would hear Nico talk about Zodiac. Absolutely love Zodiac. Check out the "Worn and Wound" edition of the Super Sea Wolf. Crazy 90's vibe to it but love it

Just wanted to say that I ordered my dream watch. Last weekend I ordered a Rolex datejust 41 with the rose gold jubilee bracelet and the Wimbledon dial. I literally dreamed about this watch and now that I have the financial resources to buy one I really did it. That's also thanks to you my man. When my mom died I fell Into a hole I could not climb out for over a year. That's when I started to watch your videos and I thought like "my goodness there are really people out there who can afford to spend thousands and thousands of dollars on something like a watch while I can't afford my next bottle of vodka and something to smoke. That's when I knew I have to get a good payed job in order to live life to the fullest and buy myself something like this. I got to the doc and he gave me medicine so I can regulate my sleep rhythm again. It mostly killed of my emotions and empathy for others. But I was able to get up again, I broke ties with most of my friends cause they were bad influence for me, dragged me down telling me I can't reach anything. Anyway I'm 24 now and if it weren't for you, I wouldnt be alive right now. I'm not joking or anything, the drugs and the alcohol wouldve allready killed me. I got so far that I allready thinking about buying a house for myself. I'm really grateful and I wish you only the best my man. Keep up with your content, I belive there are still people like me you help with your content even If you may dont realize it. BTW I know my English is not the best but to defend myself : English is not my mother tongue.

Just before watching this video I noticed "Limited Edition" on my Seiko 5. When you said 3000 pieces isn't all that limited, I thought why not search how many pieces were made of the one I have. 11000. Might as well not say limited edition, but hey, never seen anybody with the same watch lol.

How sad London has become, when you are actually joking about getting robbed of watches you worked hard to buy and can wear except in your kitchen cooking so sooo sooo 😢

I love that you included Zodiac, one of my favorite watch brands!

I just brought G-shock GM-2100 BB and looking at this watch at No.1 warms my Heart. This is the first time i brought and wore a watch ever, so it felt nice.

The really chilling part about the Zodiac killer is that he argued that he murdered all those people so he could trap them in the afterlife as his personal slaves... what a guy... probably wanted to use his Zodiac watch as the remote for his victims. You need more clips on the history of watch brands. Loved this one as well!

Why would anyone go to england??

I’ve bought the seiko after watching this. Many thanks Nico! I’m in love with the dial 😍

Love my watches & fortunately have some fairly high end pieces but when my Mrs bought me the tissot silicium gentleman for birthday I was genuinely surprised it’s such a lovely piece & well made , whatever is in your collection that watch doesn’t look out of place

I got robbed wearing a £150 watch. I won’t buy another watch until I move out of London.

I wear my Rolex sports watches on an Everest rubber strap whenever I travel and absolutely nobody seems to notice I'm wearing a Rolex. I think that the first thing a thief notices is the bracelet, especially the ones with polished centre links. I've worn them in all the 'hotspots' like London, Naples, Milan, Rome and Barcelona and never had a problem so far.......fingers crossed!

awesome video! Nearly pissed myself laughing during the Hublot bit 😂

I love these videos, this content creator is brilliant xD

Amazing video lad! Glad you say 1,600 is a lot of money. To some people that’s a lot

That Timex will still get you robbed. The guys who try to rob you would still think it's the Rolex Batgirl or Batman 😂

So happy I have the nr1 !! Love that watch and use it every day, need to get the classic Casio too

Nico you make me happy dude. Never change.

I think I got it being into firearms more than watches. Casio is the highpoint of watches. Which makes them god tier. Can not break them and they always just work. Also affordable enough that everyone can own it.

Love the jokes nico puts in his videos.🤣🙏

As a guy interested in fashion design and just design on the whole you have made me so much more interested in watches than I already was. This is low key a timepiece university

My Casioak got recognised, I am veeeeery happy about it. I'm not from very dengerous environment still I wear it every time I travel to make it safer and light on display helps to know time even in the darkest night.

Worked with Seiko's for a little bit, the name for watch Nr 8 comes from the fact that it was designed with inspiration from the workers of the Star Bar, a bar located just next to the Seiko Factory! and that's hinted at with the second hand mimicking a cocktail stirrer stick, yeah Nico it's green not poo brown.

Who else is watching this in 2028 when all the prices have doubled?

I’ll be looking for these watches now thanks

Im thinking of getting the IFL watch PRX. However, im not really a fan of quartz movements. But im in love with the design of the IFLW. Should I get the PRX powermatic 80, or the IFL PRX?

I'm just getting started and I personally like Festina as an everyday brand that screams quality for as little as £100. They are weighty and feel good to hold and good on. The other series and brand I like for around £300 is the Citizen Eco drive.

can we get Nico one of those colorblind glasses?

When Nico shat on the Hublot I knew the Casioak was coming up. I own it and love it! ❤

We need a "Brand History" Show that just gives up a summary of a watch companies brand/story/future visions of the company and planned history

number 1 reason to own a grand seiko people will be like "A seiko what did that cost 80$"

Aren’t IFL watches technically aftermarket?👀

Seiko auto 5. Mechanical watch, clear back. Great looking watch in alot of colours and feels really nice on the wrist .one of the best watches for arround £200

Nico wearing the #1 best watch in the world, the tissot prx in blue🔥🔥

Living in london the only watch i wear daily is my citizen automatic i paid half the rrp for (£190) on ebay..I have an omega seamaster and a rolex sub but they don’t leave the house unless I’m going to a function or somewhere special…the violent mugging situation is a lot worse than what the press make out,

Yay, I own a number one watch on Nico's list !! Probably the last time I'll ever say that though ;o)

Seiko SPB207. Can't recommend this one enough, same dimensions as a Submariner but wears so much more comfortable, case finishing is more intricate and the color of the dial is just bonkers. And it's quite affordable at around 1000$!

This video made my day cause I’m wearing number 1 right in the exact spec. Perfect work/ everyday watch.

"Once you go black you never go back" Damn, he took the words right from my wife's mouth

Man, I wish I would've known about the Roberto Clemente Oris Big Crown before making my purchase 6 months ago. I bought an Oris Big Crown Pro Pilot that has a bronze case, black dial, and olive green textile strap and I love it. wanted something with a bronze case to match my EDC gear and couldn't afford the Tudor Black Bay with the bronze case so went for the Oris and couldn't be happier with it. I also own the bronze Hamilton Khaki Field mechanical but the Oris gets the most wrist time of all my watches. the only watch on this list I own is the Seiko Presage and enjoy that watch as well but like the Hamilton it just fits a bit small for my liking. if I had $170k (hell, that I could spend on anything for that matter, LMFAO) that I could spend on a watch I'd have to seriously consider the one shown that was made by the 2 Dutch brothers. can't remember the name but thought that was a super sexy piece and unique. on top of being a super sexy watch your chances of coming across someone else with that same watch would be slim to none since it's limited to 125 pieces if I remember correctly. if Tissot had a different case/band design for the PRX I might consider the Powermatic since I love the waffle pattern (or what we call in the knife world a frag grenade pattern) dail but the case and band looks plain to me compared to the dail plus I don't like the fact they took a the ETA 2824-2 movement down from 4hz to 3hz to get the 80hr power reserve.

Hey Nico. I'm purchasing the Hamilton American Classic chrono you showed in this video. One question to you. Blue or white dial? Thanks.

For once I actually own the nr 1 😂

You’re welcome I’ll email the invoice

Hey Nico, Great work I remember I bought my first Rolex 13 +years ago. From Amsterdam Vintage Watches. Since then I have been collecting watches. Just bought a new Breitling because the way Rolex is going with the rubber straps.Just not my style. I enjoy your channel and humorous approach on this topic. Cheers and congrats on being a Dad. Michael

Love my PRX, got the green dial one it’s so clean

Imagine living in a place where you fear someone taking something from you. Having a gun completely removes that problem

Bro the editing n u on point

Just bought a tissot seastar the grean one its awsome i love it !!! Best walue for money !!!

Nico leonard is fully responsible for my becoming a watch collector. Im poor so watches like AP, rolex, patek and A lange & sohne will for ever be dream watches to me. But i love your videos and especially the ones like this because i can afford some of these. In fact my next watch im saving for is this Hamilton american classic. I love your videos and just wanted to say thank you for opening the world of watch collecting to me, im hooked.

I would like to hear your opinion about SMARTWATCHES (now that you wear the Apple Watch) or smart Sport-Watches. Because there are more people wearing them to make more sport or to be motivated. I‘m wearing a Garmin Epix with different straps as my daily and for sports. It‘s also a symbol to identity as a runner or triathlete and some people (other runners at business) started conversation about that just because of the watch.

I just bought a Tissot le locle powermatic 80, the silver one with Roman numbers. Truly a gorgeous watch !

HAHAHAHAHA I laught so hard when you said hublot

I really loved that nico was talking about b budget watch I really hope he keep doing the same future love from India ❤

Got an Oris 65 and don't have any problems wearing it in London also have a Seiko SARB 007 because I liked the look of it which is about the the only reason anyone should buy a watch
