I also think watches like the Paul Newman’s are what make Rolex stand out. There may be value and price arguments but there are many people that will put $10,000 forward without second thought because of the history and reputation. I think MVMT is a great brand for its value but it will always compete with companies like swatch, and if that’s not enough of a task the relation to Geneve lets you slap a zero to the price tag.

While I believe both brands offer similar quality watches, the fact that Mido's entry-level pieces are being powered by ETA-based calibers and not Sellita and were still cheaper on the gray market made them a great value proposition.

I like the Victorinox. Bought one on recommendation from my local jeweler as a handsome but very durable alternative for when working around the house doing landscaping and such. It’s a bit chunkier than a Rolex Sub, but still pretty comfortable. And one doesn’t have to worry about wrecking an expensive timepiece. I bought the stainless/blue face diver watch with stainless bracelet about five years ago and have rarely taken it off since. Keeps very accurate time and is tough as nails.

Im a graphic designer with a very strong interest in history so i would like to pick pieces with historic significance, im thinking about the Seiko 5 SNZG13 as a good option to start but what do you think? I don´t know if this watch is actually meaningful in terms of design history, but i really like it. So let´s say i get this one, wich one would you recommend next? or maybe brands to check out? Tissot? Timex? Thank you so much for your help!

I own 1 Hamilton watch, I'm 61 years old, the watch is 61 years old, it was given to my mother by a jeweler she worked for, it was serviced once years ago by Hamilton (I think sometime in the late 90's) it's in a gold case and put a 16mm leather band on it. I have no son's but daughters, no intention of selling it, but I am going to find how much or little its worth. As far as your suggestions, I am interested in a Mido or Alpina (sp). I have heard very good things about both. Not everyone can afford or willing to spend thousands on a luxury brand. Though I have always had my heart set on a Speedmaster and as of late Tudor has caught my eye. Many people have hate for some of these brands mentioned because of their parent corporations. Invicta or Fossil have bought some good brands, and should look at what is produced and not the owner. I have a Zodiac, love the watch and I do know Fossil owns them.

I must admit that, however nice I find many Hamiltons, it’s impossible for me to think of them as "Swiss" watches, even though they're made there, because virtually every design I see them produce seems to be merely a retro throwback to a design of theirs from when they were the top American watch company. Of course, I'm old enough to remember my father going off to work wearing his American-made Hamilton tank watch, but I still think of the brand as an American watch company whose products just happen to be built in Switzerland.

The Tissot Swissmatic movement (ETA C15.111) is essentially the same Sistem51 movement used in the Swatch Irony, but with a metallic rotor. No hacking, but it does have hand winding (rotating the crown counter-clockwise), and accuracy can vastly change depending on your unit. I first got one with -50s/day, got it serviced and now it's more around -10s/day. Not astonishing but acceptable. One really good thing though, it has a power reserve of around 72 hours, which lasts me the entire weekend without wearing it.

What does everyone think about the Swissmatic or Sistem51 movements? At first, I was very interested, as I thought it'd be a good way to buy my first Swiss Auto. However I've been thinking: are they seen as credible automatic watches in the watch community, given the method of their production (which lacks the craftsmanship and tradition)? Im on the fence on whether I should buy a Tissot Everytime Swissmatic as my first auto - can't make my mind up! I would be interested to hear your thoughts.

I am from Indonesia, and i am a watch enthusiast. I have 3 Swiss Made watch. mido multifort, Tissot seamaster with helium Valve and also Swatch irony automatic skeleton type. They are nice looking watch and also affordable. But too bad Hamilton ia quite difficult to get in Indonesia. Hope Swatch group Will soon sell Hamilton in Indonesia.

Really nice video with excellent choices..i wonder though why brands like Longines and Raymond weil were kept out.There are some which cost less than a 1000$ as well.

Certina offers a lot of bang for the buck! Here's my question: Will MVMT watches have the lustre to trascend or to pass down generation to generation just like Rolex?

Certina make great watches - in addition to their divers, the DS-1 line is among the best under-$1,000 dress watches around. The problem with Certina is that Swatch, in their infinite wisdom (?), don't sell them in the U.S.; the only way you can get a new one here is via the grey market.

Roberto Viacava - I just purchased a Certina DS Podium as an alternative to an Explorer 1. It hasn’t arrived yet, but I’ve heard nothing but good things and I absolutely love that dial. If it’s as good as I’ve been told, the price is *ridiculous*. www.jomashop.com/certina-watch-c001-407-16-087-00.html

Is it me or does or is this old introduction a lot better then the current one that seems like an sitcom opening lol . Really awesome video. FC watches generally are not under $1000 range unless you get their very basic models at a huge discount used same with mido's lower tier watches.

What do you guys think of the Tissot Le Locle Powermatic 80? It could very well fit into this list as well, considering the price range.

Teddy, great choices, very well researched. I mean you could have the Certina Diver and the Hamilton Intra-matic and that would be a great 2 watch collection. For a great all round tool diver the Certina is amazing, do you even really need a Sub.

Where do you categorize RADO? Surprisingly, it wasn't mentioned here as it is part of swatch group along with tissot and hamilton.

@Teddy Baldassarre I found good watch deal for a Salvatore Ferragamo 1898 model: FFM 110016 which is a swiss made watch with a Ronda 5040D quartz movement. Its is a discontinued model, are this watches good? I thought it was nice watch for $200 used.

Hey Teddy, what can you tell me about Roventa Henex? I have a seventies vintage men’s dress watch. Quartz movement. Very thin. Stainless. Was my dad’s. No one can tell me anything about it? Thanks! Love your channel!
