You made me appreciate my humble collection of seikos, citizen, Tissot, g shocks, and Hamilton. I will continue to watch your journey!

If you can afford it and not buying just for another "quick fix" then just keep on buying man! To find a hobby you feel so passionate about is a true blessing in my opinion and should be enjoyed to the fullest.

I come for the watches, but each, and every time, I am left in awe at the quality of thought, writing, and production of your videos. This is watch content presented in a different way than any other KZfaqr that you should be immensely proud of. The highest compliment I can give is that it is content that is so good I forget I'm watching KZfaq. Thanks.

I've found that the best way to separate from something is to box it up and put it out of sight. Most times, I never think about it. And if, after a few weeks, I don't really notice it's gone, I know I can sell it without regret. I do this with records, books, watches, and other things I find myself collecting and attaching too much sentimental value to. There are still some things I can't part with-the watches my wife gave me as gifts, rare records that I was obsessed with before they were rare-but I've almost never regretted parting with the things I put through that little separation period (parenting tip: it's the same way I quietly move things out of my kid's room. If he actually notices it's gone, I go get it, but if it doesn't come up after 6 weeks, we pas it on to someone else).

If you think you’re out of room physically to expand your watch collection, try collecting guitars! I’m literally out of wall and floor space.

The reason I like to see watch collection videos is because I want to see what’s out there. Every collector has a different collection. I get to see different watches that I have never seen. I get to update my watch bucket list.

Thank god/nature/whatever that you're into watches! Cause you make the best watch content ever created by a human being. Evan, you're terrific and I appreciate and respect you for everything you've done so far in this channel. Keep up the good work and never stop this madness ✌🏼

Great video as always Evan! Always inspired by your thoughtful and candid take on each and every piece you film, including, in this case, your own collection! Whether or not it makes it into your core collection, it would be an honor to see one of our watches on your channel! Hope all is well and thanks again for the great video! All the best, Ben

You are just making one of the best KZfaq content on watches. It is clear, classy, pop, funny, deep, I enjoy all of your videos. We will be glad to help you live this passion on YT. Greetings from France, with my Tudor Royale on the wrist!

I came for the Ploprof. Was not disappointed.

This dude said everything I thought about my own collection. Subscribed!

Your videos genuinely make me smile and laugh out loud, even by myself. Thank you so much for your videos and sense of humor!

Thank you for the collection update! I like seeing people’s collections because it gives me insight into their methodology. I’m a minimalist by nature and like seeing what pieces stick around the longest in people’s collections. I have a few on my wishlist as well with the Traska Venturer arctic (don’t review this one it doesn’t need more attention lol) and Tudor Pelagos 39 being the most likely next additions to my collection. I’ve also heard rumors of the Tissot PRX 35mm getting an automatic version so that could be an option as well.

As so many others have stated, you have a unique way of presenting stories about watches that just makes it enjoyable to watch your videos. Keep up the great work!

You make great videos about watches, honestly they are very visually pleasing and well executed. So I think this is why we all care about your collection it's like an excuse to watch more of your videos.

I love your channel and with this video you went beyond ❤. You have also provided me with some answers I needed 😊

By far and away my favorite watch channel, love the humor and sarcasm. Keep up the great content

This was wonderful. '7 INCH WRIST' title cards are quickly becoming my favorite.

Hey "you're terrific" Your content really just And the light-heartedness to how I collect watches? Thank you so much for making this hobby so much more fun by sharing the exact thoughts that I had but never said. Keep up this content. You seriously have the same watch taste that I do in your SOTC.

freaking love this video! Love how you share your thoughts on the hobby as a whole :D

I have been oogling watches for a while now with a view to buying one for my 60th. At the same time i have been considrring whether i needed another watch in a collection i stopped adding to years ago.. your video has helped me make up my mind.. great vid

Amazing talk, it’s like your journal in video, amazing content!

Great video! You have a great life (in this watch world) - A meaningful collection, A thriving KZfaq channel, and opportunities to see great watches that most of us done. Life is good!

I have room for 2 Watches (7 in total) and 1 is already taken, the Bel Canto black coming this November. The last piece is still open, and my mind goes crazy because I only pick a watch that I truly love (That takes time to happen). Thinking about Grand Seiko, but then I must visit Japan and buy it there, that is my rule. Anyway, great content and nice to see other human beings staying true to a collection. Most ppl own 100 watches but only wear 2.

I feel you! My collection is full up as well. I already have 2 full boxes and a handful of watches accumulating outside the boxes. No room, and no room in the budget. Sadly, there are still watches I would love to add to the collection, but then I will have to look at myself in the mirror and acknowledge that I have way more money tied up in watches than any sensible human being should. I know some are going to have to find new homes this year, but it really is hard once you've been collecting for awhile to drop the axe on one. In the first 5 years it was easy. I actually had watches that came into the collection and stayed briefly before I realized that I actually (literally) hated them. I cheered the day they went to a new home. Anyway, thumbs up for the B&R Diver! I have 2 of them, a black dial and a limited edition orange. The quirky square case fits nicely in a dive watch and I do truly enjoy strapping them on the wrist, even if there is an SD43 sitting beside them.

Not usually the one leaving the comments on YT but I must tell you that I really enjoy watching each one of your videos. Your videos are pure artistry! Keep up the good work and I am really looking forward to the next one. 😊

Your point about owning vs wearing a watch is spot on

This is EXACTLY why I’m in the midst of selling & reducing my collection down to 4-6 pieces and calling it a day. Once I got to 10 I had that “oh 😐” moment when I realized this wasn’t going to stop and then it would get ridiculous. So, I’m keeping only the ones that are already imbued with memory, then focusing on purchasing a few “grail” watches (I hate that phrase, but…..) that will take some time to acquire and from there just enjoying what I have whilst continuing to consume unhealthy amounts of KZfaq watch review vids. Good a plan as any😏

Fantastic collection. I can't tell you how much I love the fact that amongst all the heavy hitters, you have an HMT in the mix.

Nice to hear that. I feel like my collection is locked in and i really enjoy it

What a fantastic collection! No need to rush on a new one. Just keep the eyes open and one will eventually choose YOU.

Great video! I really enjoyed it 👌 You have/had watches that I love 😍

Heyyy! You're terrific! We love that you have a pretty good balance of luxury and attainable watches with a tendency for the interesting and also tool watches. I wonder what your take is on Vostok Amphibias!

You’re absolutely right that there’s a difference between enjoying wearing a watch and enjoying owning it. I have a few watches that I’d never ever sell but I also almost never wear. It’s so weird lol

Great collection a bit of everything. Like how you started with Cartier and then the G shocks.The ploprof nice touch.And 3 rolex proves that you are not a flipper. Tudor as well covers most bases.I am down to 7 sold 1 to me brother. There is 3 I hardly wear but nostalgia kicks in. Main wrist Time is rolex daytona 16523 had it 20 plus years,18k speedy Rory mac, Omega Black Black discreet but still stylish,and Breitling super Avenger 2.If i had spare money Smp 300 in green

That HMT Janata is great, I literally just got that exact watch with a black dial. Something so unique about a little 36mm hand wound watch like that, and my grandfather wore an HMT as well, very special watch.

Very nice collection and great taste as always. I guess we all go through similar issues and doubts… 😳🤣. The Navitimer will be a great addition to your collection. It’s funny how I’m watching your video and relating to the same damn points you’re making. - too many watches, happy with them all, always thinking of the next piece, never finding courage to part ways with any of them🤣 I posted my first video last Sunday showcasing my collection too. Tell what you think 🤜🏼🤛🏼

Man, your videos are so well made even the narration and visual presentation. Story telling is a 10/10 for me. Hah

You know what mate, there’s something honest about your thoughts which I can so relate to and is so damn refreshing. Don’t change….please

Love your content. Can you do a video on how you buy and sell watches? Do you buy new, pre-owned? How do you check price, authenticity? How do you sell watches at good prices? What are some of the stories behind how you acquired certain pieces?

Nice video man and a nice collection of watches too.

Dear Youre, Your watch taste is idiosyncratic. You seem to be indifferent from the loud popular opinions that many watch channels tout and I respect that. Watches or any hobby is individual and in the pursuit of enjoying one’s self, the voice which matters most is your own. Where other channels had me disturbed about taking my 50m watches out in the rain or the numerous benefits of quartz, you’re channel influenced me to look at watches with a more open mind. For example, your indifference with the hype train of the Speedy served not to validate my purchase like most other opinions out there, but it made me think deeper about why I personally enjoy it. You look inward and it inspires others to look inward as well, that is why I believe people care what watches you choose to keep.

Outstanding video as always, thoroughly enjoyed it.

Your videos are so well done and hilarious. Thanks!

Loved this video and beautiful collection 👏

I hear you. A few days ago i stared hard at my watchboxes to find a few candidates for disposal. The 1968 Tissot Visodate! Man, hadn't even taken it off the cushion for a year, it runs 30 secs fast a day, too. Surely i could punt it on. I ended up wearing it 48 hours straight. No way is that sweet thing leaving.

Just rewatched and realized you still had the pélagos sticker on the clasp 😂. I can relate.

It's like you just wrote the script and soundtrack of my life. I had these thoughts, almost word for word, as I went through my collection last night.

LOL, beautiful collection that reminds me of my own. Some small differences but several similarities. I was going to recommend a Sinn before you beat me to it. I own the 856 UTC and love it. Might I recommend a Doxa? Otherwise, my collection is very similar. All the best to you and I really enjoy your videos!

I feel this on a deep level. Great video man. 👏

Nice collection,the ploprof threw me for loop!

What an incredible collection video with a great story. I personally like to see collections to see the type of variety people have and if they have any similar tastes. It’s also a lot more intriguing to see the collection of a well established and accomplished KZfaqr, but enough about Teddy Baldesare 😊

Nice video bro. What's your watch box? the cushions look so soft!

Way to work in a Casablanca reference. Well done. I too think about that specific Tutima.

Great video! Love the drama.

You should narrate wildlife videos. Your sense of humor and way of explaining, is unmatched.

Great video mate. Where is de IWC Mark XVIII?? Hope You are thinking on getting the Mark XX

Great video. I really enjoy hearing about the psychology of watch owning, which you cover masterfully. Question: Who makes watch case with the transparent top that you own? It looks quality.

What watch box do you use? I’m looking for a new one and this is very nice

very jealous of the Solarbeat, happy to take it off you!

I also treasure the watch I wore in December for the birth of my daughter! One of the few watches that will never leave my collection

You are amazing and "terrific" my friend! It is great to see every video you publish. So personal, so distinctive, so you! Come on youtube! Help this channel to get the followers that deserves. Congratulations!

Refreshing Approach!

Great collection, the Cartier tank Americaine that you showed is stunning… might have to try and make room for that , isn’t a Cartier mandatory in a watch collection….

What perlon strap do you have on your marathon navigator? I have the hardest time getting straps for mine.

Great Video! :) what are your thoughts on Christopher ward watches ?

Feeling content with what you have is a nice feeling

Evan, have you ever discussed why you parted with the IWC Mark XVIII?

Damn your contemplative sensibility. I better take some watch listings off eBay now before I regret it.

You should try a Big Pilot, maybe even one from the original reference, the 5002. I think it would fit you. Great video as always :)

I can never stomach the regret of parting with a watch- so I don’t.. two years ago I started implementing “one in-one out” policy so I wouldn’t pass 35 watches (and to be in peace with my wife), and when I buy one, I must gift one. .so that’s my reasoning to the same problem, I love every single piece in my collection 🤷🏼‍♂️

I hear ya ... if you choose correctly, it SHOULD stay with you 😃👍🏼 By the way, I just noticed that your "NODUS" watch review is not viewable (NODUS Sector GMT) ... looking forward to seeing it ... NODUS seems to be an up and coming micro brand that will go places. At least, they seem to be doing the right things. Thanks for sharing!

I am proud and anxious of myself delaying purchase of Tudor 1926 in 36mm white dial. Little scared that they are going discontinue it like white OP39 or blue OP36 369 but not willing to buy it that soon after GS.

I can so relate to your watch collecting problems. I tell myself I'm not going to buy another watch but that only lasts a couple months at best! Watch collecting is definitely a fun addiction but an addiction non the less!

I can absolutely relate Evan. I gifted my PAM111 to my best friend. And even though I know he loves the watch he worships it too much. He doesn't wear it so much what I expected he would do. And that bugs me. And every time I meet him and he doesn't wear the watch I get upset and want it back. I know it's in good hands but... ahh! Besides that I sold a few pieces that I really regret selling in the past. E.g. the Montblanc Heritage Chronometrie Ultra Slim 38mm. Such a beautiful watch for such an affordable price back than. But hey, that's all part of the hobby. I do own 30 pieces at the moment, counting the 7 Seikos but not counting my 9 Casio's. I only count mechanical pieces. Yeah I already crossed that line to say I still do 'only' own 30 watches. I need to go now. Need to see my doctor. Thanks. Bye.

Sell everything except for the Ploplof. Ploplof is love, Ploplof is life.

I have never sold a watch!!! It’s a problem for my wife, not me 😂

Ive taken to giving away some watches to friends for important events such as weddings, with the condition that if they need to get rid of it, i get first dibs. This way i free up space in my collection while keeping the watch around me.

I'd keep the TAG for summer funky times, the PAM, the tank, the GS, the rollies, and the seiko GMT..... About that Grand Seiko though, why did you go for that particular model if I may ask ? I am currently big time looking at GSs and I like them all...

When did you get rid of the white gold Sub?

What makes you popular I think is your lack of pompous bovine faeces. And you’re honest. And your video content/quality is excellent. No, don’t have you confused with anyone else. Accept the damn compliment. And get rid of that blazer seiko. And get the tutima that thing is awesome. Done

At least you didn’t flip the GMT Master, that means that it’s really special.

Thanks YoureTerrific. Next year, we'll ask the same question again.

I have a couple that I almost never wear, but i still enjoy "playing: with and looking at and I wonder why I own them if I don't wear them. I'm also feel guilty about not giving watches enough wrist time. I wish i could be happy with one watch. or two..maybe?

Man, I know you think you don’t, but you need a Datejust. I absolutely know you will get around to one. And I’ve watched your video on ‘em.

You had the Omega Speedmaster Greyside of the Moon I believe, can I ask why you sold it? I am strongly considering buying it.

yes, the price development! That is what has been keeping me from selling as I know I will never get them back if I regret it. My biggest regret so far: selling a 1966 Omega Seamaster Chrono Panda dial with the cal 321. Reason: it came back from a full service and looked so perfect I couldn't bring myself to wear it. Well. Now 'm just trying watches out that I find interesting.We already know how different watches are in real life compared to seeing them online. Wearing them is yet different. And getting your grail watch is, too. Interesting experiences. It's all a journey.

The problems of a few watch collectors don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world... But I can relate. Great video!

Yes, you need more willpower for sure. Bad you. (now, let's look up tutima! and rethink which Sinn I should get for a next watch 😀)

I identify with this video so much. I can't decide what watch to get next or which, if any, of my current watches to part with. I'm just calling it a temporary moment of feeling content.

I think it's just that your viewers get to live life through you, enjoying your watch journey. Potentially they can't afford some of these or aren't in a position to buy a new watch so they enjoy collecting through your eyes. Hence why some viewers might express anger or disappointment at times. Think of it like a dad pushing his kid into a pro sports career so he can live though them as perhaps he never got the chance, that's maybe what some viewers are like. Me I just like the content and the journey and as I'm probably only ever going to own one luxury watch (Tudor for example) I like seeing what's on your wrist next.

You have to try Farer or anOrdain. Amazing quality and fun watches. You just want to have at least one of these in collection.

I really, really want that Tank Solar

Can you review some vintage Cartier Santos’?

What happened to your Breitling Superocean 42 in blue?!!? Thought you loved that watch!

Beware, the SolarBeat is discontinued. Keep it "charged"... and enjoy! (..."right now" as you said)

link for the Tank mesh bracelet please?

Just a really fantastic video. 👏

I want another watch Time to have another kid, then

That is the trouble with a settled collection. My ethos is to have a balanced collection. Over the years this has looked different as i've sold watches and bought others. It feels weird as that puts previous darlings on the chopping block. But the watches i wear most often are worn most often for a reason. So i separate ones i might sell from the collection and keep those out of sight and out of mind to test the waters and make sure i'm okay with it and to lessen any connection. The trouble is the reasons you bought them and like them still exist. But them being sold or given away frees up money to explore other watches with and the opportunity to balance your collection in a new way. i.e. i'd like a doxa but not until i sell this seiko so i don't have too many dive watches that would fill the same role functionally and sartorially.
