The State Of The Urban Gentry & My Omega Constellation Watch Mistake

Рет қаралды 111,684

Күн бұрын

Today I follow up on my recent Omega Constellation review and discuss how I made a big mistake in that video! I also talk about what I've been up to on the channel, and why I will always be a watch enthusiast, but never an expert.
Plus, I share an exclusive, never before seen interview with the infamous Hugo Mountbatten, during his time away last year.

Hey TGV, I just purchased my first luxury watch! It’s an omega speed master “sapphire sandwich” I purchased from crown and caliber. I just wanted to tell you that your channel nurtured my love of watches from a young age, and without it, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Cheers.

@@theurbangentry TUG - may I indulge your attention, with a question? I wore watches from 12 or so until I was 38 or so. I am really hard of watches. My physical chemistry is such that I eat the cases until they shave skin off me. I went thru 4 or so watches but now due to finding your content - I am intrigued to find my first watch in retirement. Stainless case comes to mind, can you suggest? Or even point to a video to follow. Watches, great tools, find wine or scotch, great food - life is about the enjoyment of the experience rather than just trudging thru it! Cheers and Thank you! PS - I will search your content in the mean time.

Just the whole atmosphere that you create around your show. I mean WOW it starts with the intro and then you start talking about those watches very passionate on a good pace, not to fast and neither to slow, very informative and entertaining. But not only that does it for me. It is also everything that is going on in the background I mean those beautiful images on the computer screens that change from time to time, the movie poster that is standing behind you and off course your bulletin board which is also full off stuff about watches and historical things. For me all those things together just make it a great show which sets a tone that not many shows know how to create. Keep up the good work! And thank you for all the videos you have created so far. (Sorry for my English, I just really needed to tell you this) Big fan from The Netherlands

TGV, You made the right call with the channel- preserve the enthusiasm, and give yourself room for the occasional eclectic episode. Armchair critics can't understand all the not quite visible forces pushing and pulling at creators, or the fact that there's life beyond watches that require your attention. Your efforts show who you are, because you don't copy anyone else. Admitting mistakes is not weakness, as you know. And Hugo is great fun!. Thanks for your hard work!
