1861 is the movement in the modern Speedmaster. The watch that went to the moon housed a 321 with column wheel vertical clutch. The Heuer Caliber 11 was the watch worn by McQueen. The winding crown was placed on the left of the case to illustrate that it was an automatic with no need of winding.

Tony S wore a President, as he should. Day Date. As I'm sure you have already been corrected. Anyway big respect. I spotted the Hulk years ago on your earlier stuff.

These podcasts are great! I've been listening all day. Glad they're finally out.

Cameron's vintage no date Sub is sweeeeeeet!

Another great one! Thanks Matt and Cameron (and team). I'm trying to build a collection of the great icons - so far have the Rolex Sub, Rolex Datejust, Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch, Omega Seamster Professional (wave dial) and the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso. Looks like I need to add more.

Binge watching these podcasts! Can you address the details of manually winding an automatic movement is harder on the movement vs winding a manual wind watch?

@WatchAndListenPodcast

6 жыл бұрын

We can, but it is not! If your automatic watch is stopped, you should start it up again by winding the crown, and not by just shaking your wrist a bunch. Automatic winding watches, at least the modern ones, have mechanisms that will prevent you from over-winding, but generally 25-40 turns will do it. My only full mechanical (non auto) watch is actually my Weiss, which has a hard stop when it's fully wound.

The movement in the modern Day Speedmaster Professional Is NOT the same movement as the watches used by NASA during Gemini and Apollo. The Modern Speedmasters use an 1861 movement. The look of the watch has not changed though. These are beautiful watches. There are also dozens of special edition Speedmasters with different colored dials and Panda/Reverse Dials that are really cool too. The Acrylic Crystal on the Speedmasters is called Hesalite. Hesalite Crystals are what the astronauts wore. NASA did not want Sapphire Crystals. Sapphire Crystals were less likely to scratch then Hesalite, but Hesalite was much less likely to shatter then Sapphire and NASA would not want Sapphire shards in Zero Gravity. These are great videos that you have put together. I am enjoying them.

I think the navitimer can come in to the mix. Seiko skx is pretty iconic, especially on the entry level market. Hamilton Khaki? Speaking if which, a movie watch episode would be neat!

I would have added the IWC pilot (big or not) watches...

Nicely done, Cameron! Couple comments: 1) The Datejust isn't in Rolex's sport line, and thus isn't really a sport watch, is it? 2) while Blancpain Fifty Fathoms is known as the first dive watch with a rotating bezel, Panerai made the FIRST dive watches for the Italian navy 20 years before, in the 30s; 3) Reverso was designed in 1931, not 1935

Actually, Omega made the first dive watch but the Panerai is more iconic..due to it's 'romantic' story... and practical use.. the JLC movement (like the El Primero) used in the AP is iconic in itself

love your take on watches, but i'm looking forward to you upgrading that close-up camera. canon 70d, and tabletop setup tutorials maybe?

I love looking these watches up and wonder if someone actually orders one online at these crazy prices rather than get it in person

Great show. your main camera seems to be shaking when you type.Easy fix I'm sure. Keep them coming

That Seamaster is such killer watch. I have a Planet Ocean and love it to absolute bits... Ciao

So much want so many awesome watches. I have definitely gotten an education from you guys.

Ok so I am 2 years late listening to this episode, but it must be fate. I was going thru a lot of crown I picked up and picking out signed crowns. Lo and behold I found what looks exactly like the seamster crown your mentioned. Its got the old Omega logo, I just gotta check the size of things. Amazing! Now for some research!

Most of these Rolex look the same to me, so one would have done in a list of iconic watches because iconic for me is also coupled to the look. Generally i was waiting for a Navitimer, a IWC Pilots watch like the Mark 12, an IWC Ingenieur, some B-Uhr, a Panerei, a Tag Heuer Carrera, and last but not least a G-Shock to show up. And considering the criteria listed for the Moon watch: Cameron said lat time that the watches submitted were build seperately from the commercial ones with different materials. Sinn offers Watches today with lubricants that withstand these temperatures for everyone to buy.

Matt is a newb in the watch game.

Is the Seiko Turtle big enough to make the cut?

What about navitimers?

Will you have Jonathan Ward on with some of his watches?

I think the Cosmograph name originated when Rolex was competing with the Speedmaster and others for the NASA choice when they were testing pieces.

As a total watch nerd, I fucking love this.

You managed to make the Calatrava look like a Daniel Wellington

Tudor and Omega puts faux patina on some of their new watches like the Black Bay to look more like a vintage watche

You showed a "Tag Heuer" monaco, not the original. The Original Monaco should have the crown on the left. This is to remind people that they don't need to wind their Monaco.

Iwc big pilot needs to be in the list. Great list though

Matt had the correct pronunciation of Valjoux the first time around.

Ellen's collection is insane! She's crazy about Rolex and Patek. She has several Nautilus references.

Maty: You pronounced “Valjoux” correctly the first time! It’s not “Val joe” as your guest said. Also, the platinum Daytona you showed is actually the white gold. Platinum Daytona comes only on a bracelet and how a brown bezel with a ice blue dial. You are doing a great job!! Keep up the good work!

You listed the Breitling Top Time as a iconic wristwatch but didn't show and talk about it...Why?

Not everything. Original Rolex Explorer which all the sports Rolex are based upon 🤓. Great show !

While listening to this I panic bought a 40 dollar pierfff cardaaa pff, a Perieff carpff, a Pierer oh fuck it, I tought it was a Tag Heuer Monaco.

If your doing Iconic then the "Holy Trinity" watch brands have to be included which are Patek Philippe & Co., Audemars Piguet & Vacheron Constantin

speedy wins. Second Navitimer. Third Jlc reverso!

Rolex failed two tests and Longines one test.

No Casio G-Shock? thats a pretty damn iconic watch

Rolex had Daytona actually used the Seiko design of chrono then had Zenith make their Seiko inspired auto chronos till like 2004 when rolex finally decided to make their own chrono.. I think.. I might be drunk typing..

Not bad guys !Where u guys based?

Is zenith the same brand that used to make televisions?

Matt is giving so much untrue information in this podcast it's pretty funny :) I just started watching those, lets see the progress in years time

The Heuer calibre 11 movement was not integrated like the El Primero...The El Primero was in development longer than the Calibre 11 movement and a working prototype was produced earlier...Can't really compare the great El Primero to the calibre 11...IMO, the El Primero (and the Seiko) chronographs should be recognised more as the first auto chronograph movements, not the integrated calibre 11 movement.

No Seikos!?

Rolex failed because during the test it got humidity in it.

Hi Matt and Cam. I discovered your channel last week and I've been enjoying it. I would like to ask two things though. One, please improve the camera and lighting so when you show a watch up close it actually looks crystal clear and gives a great view of the watch. As it is now, the image of the watches is blurry and it's not very detailed. We don't see the watch very well. Secondly, and most important IMHO, is that you get your facts straight. You all butcher facts about the watches left and right. At some point, folks are going to come to your channel for information and they are going to walk away misinformed. For example, your entire segment on the Omega Speedmaster was littered with misinformation. There is a ton of information out there though and with some simple prep, you could have easily gotten the stories and information about the watch accurate. For instance, it was the only watch among the ones that NASA tested that passed all 10 tests. The other two watches that qualified for the test failed after the first test. The testing wasn't even close. Omega didn't win it by the skin of their teeth they won it by a landslide. Also, it has been retested and requalified by NASA at least 2 other times again beating out its competitors. It's still flight-qualified by NASA today. This wasn't the only spot where you guys had the facts wrong. So, please get the facts polished up and proper. I'm a huge watch geek and I'd like you both to succeed and help grow the hobby. Thanks for all you do! Keep the content coming.

Tony S wore a Rolex President

Didnt tony soprano wear a rolex day/date??

Breitling navitimer.

Hey cameron, are you Zenith hating? you can't even say the facts straight without hesitating as regards the brand.

Those NASA test results: Fast forward to March 1st, 1965. All testing has concluded and the results were in. The Rolex Cosmograph’s Valjoux 72 stopped twice during testing and its seconds hand warped from exposure to high humidity. The Wittnauer’s crystal warped and released from the case during both the high pressure and decompression tests. As for the Speedmaster, it withstood all the tests and passed with flying colors. With that, Speedmasters were “Flight-Qualified by NASA for All Manned Space Missions”, and would go on to play a major role in the Gemini, Skylab, and most famously, the Apollo missions.
