In this episode, Cameron and Matt explore a dozen or so watches that they bought off Amazon for between $300 and $1,000. This range features watches that we call "Mall Watches," available at the large multi-brand watch retailers found in department stores, airports, and malls.

    Junkers to me is cool. They once manufactured airplanes. (I have actually no idea if the companies are connected but they have the same names!) Also Tritium is a superheavy isotope (version) of hydrogen and releases β-ray radiation (basically shoots electrons around :P) beta-radiation can be pretty easily stopped by anything metal so if you have a metal back watch your wrist will never see any of the radiation.

    I don't know when I hear Mall watches I think of Fossil and designer watches, like Coach etc. this episode was actually a pleasent surprise, cool watches. The Hamilton and the Citizens may have been my favorites. If you do an episode on straps I would like to see your take on the Red Wing leather straps. I have Timex Waterbury that has the Red Wing leather strap and it's mind blowing how good this strap is and feels especially for a watch in the $130 range.

    I have that exact same citizen eco drive and it's fantastic. I got it on sale for 350. It's light, durable, automatically syncs with the atomic clock in colorado every night so its always accurate within a second, never needs any adjustment, battery always stays full even when i leave it in a dim room for a long time, the sapphire crystal and titanium are very tough. For the price it's really a fantastic piece. Not super dressy but great for every day use. Also the alarm and chrono features are nice additions though i rarely use them.

    I think Citizen is a really good buy for a watch in this price range. One of my first watches I bought myself was a Citizen Eco Drive. 10 years later it still runs great, and it is now my beater watch for the gym, or when I go shooting. It was under $500 and is fully titanium as well with a Sapphire crystal. Really good value in my opinion

    Thanks for this episode; like others, it helped expand my horizons. I agree with Viriatvs; Seiko is a much more vertically integrated than many watch manufacturers, a strategy that allows easy entry but fosters aspiration to move up into higher-end models (with a notably number of in-house movements). Always being of more modest means, my first Seiko was an early 1970s SQ bought during 1979 at a police auction. My latest purchase was a SARB017 Alpinist, which fits my preference for a watch that brings a combination of history, aesthetics, or functionality, in a package I like and can afford. A good example is my next target: the Stowa Flieger Klassik 40 Baumuster B. Then it’ll be time to save for an American-made watch, most of which will push a bit beyond my normal budget. While I’m waiting for the future Seiko episode, I’ll keep searching for the elusive affordable reverse two-eye panda automatic chronograph.

    These episodes are really getting very fun and increasingly more relevant to my price point. I don't know that I'll ever be able to afford a very expensive watch but this price point is completely in my range and some of these I have considered before. Those Hamilton Khaki's are very striking and I love the font on the dial. Plus I'd like to get a nice solar Citizen to round out my cheap Japanese watches for the moment. So far Cheap Watches, Spike, Cam's story, Jon, Complications, Iconic and this one are my personal favorites that I keep watching. Spike and Jon are cool as fuck. Bring them back. What about that crazy Zuckerman lawyer dude too? Is he a watch guy? He'd be cool to see what he collects and just listen to his crazy story's. Thanks for another great show Matt and Cameron.

    Just to give you guys some backround, Junkers was a large German aircraft manufacturer during ww1 and ww2, mostly known for the infamous Stuka divebomber ( the ones that had the Jericho Trumpets with the signature Siren upon attack ) and the Ju 52, a very famous tri-engined passenger plane of the period. Hence the aeronautical themed collection of the brand. great podcast, always a joy to watch and of course listen. keep up the quality entertainment.

    I don't like the word "cheap" when talking about products. Cheap kind of implies that the build quality, materials and fit and finish are "good enough" to sell but may not function properly. I prefer "inexpensive" when talking about things on the lower end of the price point. G-Shocks aren't cheaply made, but they are inexpensive. I've always thought of cheap watches as ones that don't keep time longer than a week and are plated to look nicer.

    Affordable has a weird association with it. You see a bunch of commercials for "affordable" insurance, mortgages, etc and they typically don't have the best terms and means there's payments of some sort. They are the last hope for many people. This is obviously my personal opinion, but I would want my products described as inexpensive instead of cheap or affordable. Cheap and affordable have a negative or compromised tone to it.

    Winston Baby you are correct. The 2824 and 2892A2 are very similar looking from the dial side of the watch. However from the back, they are completely different. Both are good movements, but the 2892A2 is much newer and better than the older 2824. I prefer the 2892A2 because I believe they are more reliable and better engineered to reduce wear and tear.

Mercedes, although they do make trucks and utility vehicles, is primarily still viewed as a luxury brand IMO. Toyota on the other hand, aside from obviously being also Japanese, is known for their affordable and reliable cars, but also has the manufacturing capability of creating something like the LFA.

Not a problem with Citizen or other Japanese brands. Name a car, electronic, clothing manufacture does the same. People can see low quality who are not watch people. Too many fan boys giving the brand a pass and benefit from selling the product via their sites. Too many others afraid to offend the delicate Seiko Kool-Aid drinkers because it effect their sales.

    Geardos, I don't know what your point is. i it - Yes, Sony makes low quality products like 400 - 500 items too? Yes, brands make products at different price points with different purposes. People should have realistic expectations of each. You do not address what disposable means. I have Audio Technica $20 headphones w/o any quality issues and they sound pretty damn good. People don't need strategies to avoid buying poor quality Sony products. That is a $400-500 watch and the same is true for Seiko's across the sub $1000 price point. At least you seems objectively, accept low quality. It helps when you write it down.

I'm just stating that the entertainment value of watching you learn about watches is akin to Ariel the mermaid showing off her knowledge of how to use a fork, meanwhile you are quite often coming off as a watch snob. This is my new favorite channel my friend, thank you for bringing us this content. Sincerely, thank you.

    Jesse Evans hi Jesse. Welcome. I’m glad you liked me on Rogan. I don’t think you understand my position in this podcast. I am the student, not the teacher, and therefore dumb shit is expected, because I don’t know all that much about watches, and don’t pretend to. I have my own taste in stuff, sure, and I think a lot of inexpensive watches feel cheap and cheesy. But that’s it. so i think in order for you to have the best experience possible, you should expect me to say dumb things and then be corrected by someone who knows more than I do.

    dr1345 I'm too poor to buy nicer watches cause I own a vette and jag and don't make much money. Tissots rock, I don't like some of them, but they do have nice stuff for the money. My dad has a submariner from the late 90s. I honestly don't see or feel the 4k price difference. The movement is more exclusive in the sub, yes, other than that, not much.

    Perhaps because they are a relative newcomer, or because they began by making fashionable quartz pieces in the '70's, they don't seem to get the love they deserve. They are definitely in the entry level luxury category. They make fine watches, and are one of the very few independent, family owned Swiss watchmakers left.

  • @thewatchmakersworkshop

    @thewatchmakersworkshop

    6 жыл бұрын

    Wacko C for me I think the winding mechanism is really where the 2824 falls behind the 2892A2. Automatic mechanisms keep a watch mechanical watch wound, but before wearing it you must first manually wind by the crown to get it ticking. The 2824 has wear issues with manual winding that can lead to damaged bridges that must be replaced if too much time goes by between service or if the watch is manually wound often. Also the 2824 has a less efficient automatic winding mechanism than the 2892A2. The 2892A2 is a newer and better automatic movement from ETA which also means it cost more, so the 2824 is still a great mechanical movement when priced right.

    Shooting high caliber pistols is dangerous when wearing high caliber watches. Definitely a beater watch scenario and always wear on your off-shooting hand, ie: the opposite hand with which you hold the firearm.

    Conversation circa min 43: Force = Gravity x Mass. Since gravity is 9,8 m/s a meter drop multiplies the weight x10 (basically). More weight, more impact.

    I was looking for a related comment to expand upon. Thanks! The physics term for what they're referring to is Inertia. Once the watch, gun, car, etc. starts moving it doesn't want to stop. Also, in the gun analogy, the hairspring has such little inertia that it moves smoothly with the gun's extra mass. Finally, the elasticity of the material also contributes to the durability. Something like brass is damaged by much less force than what it would take to damage steel or titanium.

    Also, a shotgun most definitely moves backwards when it shoots. It has to move backwards with the exact same force as the shot going forwards. Equal and opposite reaction, all that. Not sure how it translates from gun, to arm, to watch though as far as damage.
