F#*K The Hype: How I Found Happiness In A 6 Watch Collection: Seiko, Tissot, Panerai, G-Shock & More

Рет қаралды 92,416

Күн бұрын

As a response to the recent Watches and Wonders hype, and all the predictable, annual derivative content that follows, I'm sharing something a little more profound and hopefully useful. In analyzing six of my watches (which could be considered an ultimate collection within my larger collection) they revealed to me nine fundamental truths and lessons I have learned in my collecting journey that have ultimately led me to be the happiest I have been in my horological adventures. Also stay tuned for special reporting, live from Watches and Wonders, by our very own Hollywood A-list movie star HRH Hugo Mountbatten. What are your secrets to watch collecting happiness? And what watches have taught you the biggest lessons? Please share in the comments.

Included in the video are vintage hidden gems like my Panerai Luminor PAM0048, an ahead of its time Tissot Janeiro Z199 chronograph that was the progenitor to the Omega Speedmaster, the ultimate strap monster in the form of my Tudor Submariner ref. 79090, the Universal Geneve White Shadow that inspired my favorite Patek of all time (the Ellipse,) a Seiko Willard reinterpretation of the iconic Apocalypse Now diver ref. SPB237J1-a watch that taught me to appreciate unusual timepieces I never expected to like-and last but by no means least, the Casio G-Shock Mudman G9000 that made me appreciate how fun and simultaneously practical watches can be at an affordable price, for less than $100.

"Watches as Investments" has to be one of the dumbest, idiotic, most irresponsible, bits of advice the Swiss Watch Mafia and Watch Idiot Savants parrot at each other. It's consumerism under another name. Oh, but the watch doubled in price over ten years! Yeah, dude, money halved in value over the same period of time so you're selling it for the same price you bought it for. You could have left that cash in a bank or literally _any_ type of investment product and would have been ahead. Instead of you lost money buying a watch that does nothing better than a Seiko for 1/10th the price.

My key to watch collecting is the same as yours when it comes to jogging = feeling the enjoyment it produces me when i'm capable of fully appreciating the happiness this small collecting world brings me. Wether it's a conversation with my father about one particular time-piece, a sit-down with my grandfather to talk about his collection or receiving/giving a random compliment to a stranger in the street in relation to their wrist-watch, the overall ejoyment and utility i get from these moments is unmeasurable. Grazie davero Tristano. Your content resonates fully with me and has been for years since I found your channel in 2021. I'm not a recurrent comentator in your videos (in fact I can't even recall if I've commented previoulsy), but this video was extremely necessary in order to look back and realize how fortunate it is that we are all capable to enjoy this from our respective standpoints. Grazie amico! Un saluto dalla Spagna, Guillermo!

I went on a 3 week vacation, one where I decided against carrying around expensive watches. I bought a Citizen Promaster Land at a deep discount, put it on a rubber strap, and wore the heck out of it hiking and even kayaking. It performed very well, in very wet conditions, and wearing it to dinner on a Milanese strap stood out from the ubiquitous Apple Ultras the financially comfortable traveler seems to wear these days. I now get how you can really appreciate a watch that is not 'haute horologie' but just does a job, like a G-Shock or the DW290, and gets associated with events in your life.

The way I see my watch journey and what brings me joy in owning a timepiece is having only one watch that will follow me everywhere. It is a rational decision which brings a lot of peace and enjoyment. First and foremost I am rather immune to new watch releases and hypes which are becoming more and more like fast, but not cheap fashion or Apple product releases. One of the reasons I entered world of watches and started exploring it is the timelesness and counter-consumerism ethos as these are very rare objects that can last very long and can be serviced and fixed. Somewhat similiar to good leather, properly made, goodyear welted shoes. Having one watch also creates special bond because, this one piece is with me trough good, bad and ugly so it really becomes my daily sidekick, everywhere and everytime. From beach to work, from hiking to traveling. Having more that one makes me feel cluttered. It works for me and of course I am not saying this is the only truth that exists😊
