If You Could Only Own One Watch: Rolex? Seiko? Squale? Panerai? Casio?

Рет қаралды 40,045

3 күн бұрын

Today I'm joined by engineer turned watch entrepreneur Marc Frankel of Long Island Watch for a brand new #WatchTalk episode where we pose the question: If you could only own one watch, what would it be...and why? We also discuss a more existential topic: if you were a watch, what watch would you be? In this video we cover a variety of brands and watches including the Squale 1521, Panerai Luminor Quaranta PAM0048, Rolex Submariner, Islander Rangemaster Mechanical, Seiko Flightmaster, Seiko SKX013, Rolex Explorer, Breitling Aerospace, and Breguet Tradition. What do you think about our choices? What would you pick as your one and only watch? And what watch most represents you? Let us know in the comments!

For me the best "one and done" watch is a oldschool two-tone datejust. Just such a versatile and classic piece.

Great choice - may i also throw the Tudor Prince Date+Day in the ring. Also in two-tone. I totally like the Tudor 5-link Bracelet and that it sits flatter on the wrist than the Datejust due to the flatter caseback. That would be my "one and done" watch.

Growing up in Switzerland I remember that the Omega signs always struck me when I saw them around, even as a child without knowing anything about watches. For example, I didn't even notice the Rolex signs, but Omega seemed cool to me. Many years later I became interested in watches and wanted to buy my first "big" one, and it was an Omega Aqua Terra. I have a two watch collection now, and I'll keep both, but the Omega is definitely the special one.

My grandparents are from Italy, I've been there several times. And Fierenza is also my favorite city. I love Italian motorcycles & recently thought I should have an Italian watch to go with my bikes. First Panerai, 44mm, sandwich dial, manual wind, exhibition case back, 2-hand watch. It looked so big and weird! Totally different from watches I typically wear. But, it is now the watch I wear the most. Recently one of my clients surprised me: He gifted me a ceramic Radiomir. A black seal pig dial. I'm fully committed now :) Great episode!

Chronofactum Squale 1521 Squalo Bianco Special Edition - Blasted Case. It's another Urban Gentry suggestion that I ordered, and never looked back. My first being a Seiko solar Tuna. For me, the Squale 1521 checks so many boxes. I just love the dial face and overall look of the watch. The blasted case is the chefs kiss. The fact it's a one off of a classic design from Squale, sets it one step apart in the 1521 line. Thanks again to Urban Gentry for the suggestion.

@wingi7722 Күн бұрын

Excellent topic and discussion as always! So I have a plethora of chronographs (both vintage and modern), some of which are divers, as well as some diving GMT's and some straight divers (like the infamous SKX). I'm not sure if the "one watch" for me actually exists- but I can imagine it. 1. It must be dive capable as I love being underwater. 2. It must have some sort of rotating bezel as this is very useful as a timing device. 2 and a half. That bezel must be fully lumed. 3. I would go for the GMT function over the chrono function as I do travel a bit and have a daughter in Japan. 4. I would prefer a light blue dial and a RED date. 5. It needs to be at least 42mm so I can appreciate it with my eyes (as well as the fact that the bigger pieces do look better on me). So effectively I would be going for a 42+mm version (homage) of a GMT Master with all of the above mentioned features. My second favourite watch (which is one of most least expensive pieces) is the closest piece to this. It's a 41mm 300M homage to the GMT Master. Full on lume monster and yes it comes underwater with me. The only things boxes that it doesn't tick are is the lack of a light blue dial and red date and its dub 42mm. But it packs a HUGE bang for bucks and lots of fun for so little money. Another option I would consider (despite it being quartz) is that beautiful white and blue Seiko Flightie on Mark's left wrist. Reasons- a. Chrono, Alarm and GMT all in one in anologue display. b. It's a Flightie ! Say no more!

Just one watch? It would have to be the Rolex Explorer 36mm. But with about 20 straps from the steel bracelet, black and brown leather, natos and rubber it can look a million bucks with a Tux, or fitted with a nato for a day of hiking, mountaineering or sailing. Its also one of the only Rolex models that don't scream attention say if you were in London with short sleeves. Fitted with a nylon nato, it could look quite ordinary.

For me my one and done would be the Omega Railmaster silver face on bracelet. Out of all the watches I've worn it is the best allrounder hands down.

Definitely Montblanc 1858 with Minerva movement. Those are underrated vs what they offer. Summarising, a niche watch that delights.

I like this idea of a "one and done" watch, I need to give this some deep thought to reduce my collection. This doesn't mean one and done forever as Mark said "variety is the spice of life" but it certainly is worth thinking about as it would allow ownership of one far superior (or expensive) watch rather than several not quite as good, perhaps wearing until one tires of it then move on to the next dream watch . Perhaps we are all getting blinded by collecting and perhaps for some we should focus in. Onwards and upwards

The watch I own, that its the most "me" is my Nomos Blaugold Neomatik 35mm - so that would be my one watch. Its also got some engravings that means a lot to me. Btw, that Panerai suits you perfectly! Great video with you two, as always. You guys really relight my love of watches.
