Steinhart is amazing. Günter states he made that company wanting to make a great watch for everyone at a respectable price, not cheap. He has made the working man’s luxury watch.

I’m Gen X. Can’t remember the last time I cared what anyone that wasn’t close to me thought about anything I owned, especially audio or watches. I can’t ever imagine buying anything for the opinion of someone else.

Love Steinhart too. Unbeatable in Value and Quality in this pricepoint

Steinhart is the only homage brand I wear. I have owned 3. My favorite is the 39 mm Pepsi gmt on aluminum bezel. A micro adjust clasp would be nice, though. And I am not cheap. I have 6 Omegas, and yet the Steinhart still gets plenty of wrist time.

I have the 39mm milsub Gnomon watch collab. One of my favorite watches!

I own the 39 mm Ocean 1 Vintage GMT running an ETA 2893-2 at about 3 sec. a day fast. Totally adore it. Fine vid guys!

Love the video. I met my wife in Italy. Awesome place! Have Steve back on the channel. Good content and conversation with your buddies.

For the money, Steinhart is undeniably a great watch. I love homage watches because they come in versions that don't exist. Submariner homages made of Titanium and with Meteorite dials are just two examples.

Vivo en Argentina y me tengo que conformar con un Invicta pro diver que aquí es un lujo tener uno igualmente estoy muy conforme 👍

That Steinhart is gorgeous. I always discounted them before but now I may have to look a little closer.

Thank you for taking a trip to Rome, I hope you had a great holiday, wonderful place

Love this style of video!

Great video, Steinhart is a great value I have 2 (Ocean1 39, and the adventure) I won’t buy another though I prefer to own different brands as well. Just bought the Edox skydiver, beautiful watch.

I own the exact looking time piece but made by Squale and without the cyclops. One of my favorites. Not to mention I also rock the Steinhart Ocean One GMT with titanium bracelet…Cheers buddy

I work at Tag Heuer on Via dei Condotti, and up till the end of March, at that exact Tissot store. Italians generally have no taste in watches from brands that aren’t Rolex. Every luxury brand that has a strong presence worldwide which isn’t Rolex, Panerai or Omega simply doesn’t have much of a market among Italian collectors. They all want Daytonas and Subs. Most of the Italians that walk into our Tag store think they cost €200-€1000 so when we tell them an Aquaracer is €3750 they gasp and say “but how is it so expensive if it’s not Rolex!?” It’s embarrassing to share a nationality with self-titled “collectors” who don’t even know Tag Heuer exists and is Swiss as well.

Rome is a great city and the food is unbeatable! Been there several times. Haven't found any great watch deals yet but that won't stop me from looking. Enjoyed the video and the scenes of Rome!

I've owned several Steinhart and it is my favorite boutique brand. I like mine because it is a good solid watch for a price that I can afford, they are great quality, and at 42mm they are a perfect size for me. I'm sensitive about someone thinking I'm wearing a copy of another brand so the Steinhart models I've owned are in less obvious color schemes. I did own a blue model some years back, I think it was darker than yours, and I wish I still owned it. I own one that is all black PVD and I wear it on a Navy NATO strap. I own a Pepsi GMT and even though it is a close lookalike to the Rolex GMT it isn't as recognizable to the average public. My third one right now is the Ocean 500 Titanium model with straight hands so this makes it a Steinhart original design. This is my favorite of the 3 that I own. Remember DeBaufre? the sister brand to Steinhart. I once owned a DeBaufre big Flieger watch, maybe 47mm. I really liked it and sometimes wish I still owned it.

I've got 3 Ocean One 42mm watches which I've owned since 2017. My first was a Black with Black Ceramic Bezel, followed by Pepsi GMT and Finally a Green Bezel Black Dial Kermit Homage. Great watches for the money although the clasp pin broke on the Kermit so swapped the Bracelet out for a run of the mill Black silicone strap instead..👍👍

Very cool style video!

Love, LOVE my Steinharts. Incredible watches - and would be at twice their affordable prices!

One of my three go-to watches is a Steinhart Ocean Adventure 39 that I've paired with a TGV Valour strap...I love the Explorer, but would never justify the price...and I prefer the double-dome Steiney over the Roller's flat glass.

that Steinhart in blue is beautiful. I have the Ocean 1 Black Ceramic 39 bc I have a smaller wrist. I'd LOVE a Rolex submariner but I'd rather take a month long tour of Italy than pay that much for a watch. And I'd worry about a bad ding or theft w a Rolex.

I had this very Steinhart a few years ago. It was one of my first watched. It was a great watch but his is when they were still using the Soprod movements. Some of those Soprods were lemons. It got sent into Steinhart twice and after the warranty expired I had to take it to a local watchmaker before I sold it. Minus the watchmaker fees I only lost $50 on it. I believe Steinhart is not using Soprods anymore; which is good. Overall I would still recommend them. Steinhart customer service was great and I think the watch was really sold feeling. I actually owned two Steinharts. The other was their homage to the original Explorer II. I bought that one so early in the hobby that I did not even know it was an homage. Another bonus, you can get a replacement bracelet for like $80 if yours gets all scratched up. I would call Steinhart a "livable" watch rather then a beater. You can live with it and not worry too much about it.

Nice walk and talk. Nobody should own a watch that they'd be devastated in wrecking or losing.

Great watch tour and conversation. Put this tip towards a Panerai.

I have 3 steinhart I agree 100% watching this video wearing my marine blue 39 :) best beater watch for your money I take it with me when vacationing in dangerous places nowhere is safe anyways

I wish Steinhart would offer a quartz option for all or some of thier models.

Cool video

I love that blue dial Steinhart. I had it for a while in my collection. I liked the 42mm size and the fact that it is stainless, some things you can't get from another Swiss brand. The dial looked amazing. Incredible value. I would get a Steinhart over a Seiko any day. I still have two other Steinhart's in my collection. Those watches were some of the first mechanical watches I owned and are partly responsible for getting me into this hobby. Highly recommended. Good video.

Many people in Italy rock replicas

No, Steinhart reminds Rolex what a tool watch is. Rolex has forgotten their roots. This is why people respect Seiko. They didn't forget the tool watch crowd.

Hey Randy, this was a cool change of pace from your usual content! The video does highlight one of my main concerns with wearing a Steinhart, though. You said people were “eyeing” your watch thinking it was a blue sub. Are you not worried about being robbed because someone thinks you’re wearing a submariner? Maybe I think about it too much but I know I would be, especially with watch crime rising in big cities. Let me know what you think, cheers 🍻

I'll go with Pagani Design if concerns getting stolen and it's just under 200.

Totally agree with you about Steinhart, own one, and if you don't like it for yourself, you'd better sell it, otherwiser, that's a great watch, great movement ( sw200 ) all the specs of the diver, and i own the 39mm which has awesome proportions for my small wrist! If you are still in europe in June there is a festival in Bordeaux : Time Fest 15 et 16th of June , maybe see you there ! nice trip in Rome !

Steinhart makes a pretty good watch, particularly if you opt into the models with the SW300 movement. You'd better really like the Rolex-vibe, since you'll be hip deep in it. You will get sniped at from the homage averse crowd. Prepare witty ripostes accordingly.

just returned a seastar 2000. felt cheap

I have three Steinhart watches: Two Ocean Ones (One Green/Green and one Blue/Blue) and a Nav II DLC. One colleague at work did ask me if the Green/Green Ocean One was a Rolex? I told him: Absolutely not. It's a German Steinhart it cost me about 650€. If it had been a Green/Green Rolex Submariner ... the price would have been 23K €.... and I wouldn't be wearing that watch to work.

I wear a Steeldive SD1953T 'Y Master' and most people think it's a Rolex. Watch cost me £50 and it has been brilliant. Why would you wear a $5-10k R*lex that is exactly the same except for the name?

I got a Blue Steeldive 1953 on my Wrist. Ain't that enough? Skip the Gelato. Youre a Man!

I’m a Steinhart guy for sure. What cameras are y’all using?

Steinhart needs to work on their clasps

Yo Randy, I gotta ask...why are you selling it now? Eagle eyes over here caught the listing by accident. Hope there's a video with some parting thoughts!

more of this kind of vlog

Well, I am 99.99 percent anti Blue anything, though I should add it's certain Blues... For the most part most Blues I've seen in watches regardless of who and $ have just been IIMO God awful grotesque. But this Blue Treatment I do find actually gorgeous...and I could give 2 S***s if someone mistakenly assumed it was another Brand who must not be Named. Thanks Randy...and just How many Gellotos was that?

@2:11 the moment she stops and asks her husband... "Is that the Cheap Watch Man from KZfaq ??" . You're a star man !

I own a Rolex GMT master 2 and a Steinhart ocean one. I have to say the Steinhart is very nice and the quality is very nice. but people need to stop caring what others think, saying you have to have confidence to wear a Steinhart is just silly! no one cares what you wear. I had people confused my Steinhart as a Rolex sub and I tell them thank you it's not a Rolex and we go on about our day no big deal......

You'll be dropping your guy off at watch rehab this time next year

Does Steinhart have some watch that is their design ,not homage ?

7 October

Glycine!

Not ttoo smart wearing somting similar to a Rolex in Italy as you are inviting a Shippo buys passing by on a bike and taking your watch

You know how the Italians recognize the Americans? Because we wear t-shirts and hats 😂 so jealous of a Rome trip….

Why Would Buy A PRX When The Main Part Of The Movement Is Plastic ? Because Me Personally You Couldn’t Pay Me To Own One !!

They're an homage brand and when I see people wearing homage watches, the first thing I think is 'you can't afford the real deal?' The thing is, we can all afford the real deal, it just shows bad taste is all. There's nothing wrong with inexpensive watches, but buy an original design.
