Btw your AD has been calling around to be sure you're alright, they have a parking spot reserved with your name on it! 😂

Great to see you have diversified your collection. In the past, you had a bunch of Grand Seikos that it looked like you had the same watches but in different colored dials.

Nice to see you doing well and to catch up on your collection, video quality is excellent. Looking forward to your upcoming live streams and getting the band back together! ☺

A wonderful, well-rounded collection, and very interesting Sanjay. Thank you for sharing.

I love your collection man! Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼

Great collection Sanjay, seems like its well refined. SJE 62mas is beautiful!

So close! Not sure I’ll make it lol Thanks again UWC! Hope you’re keeping well!

It’s been quite a few months since I’ve watched your videos, and it’s great to see smaller 33-37mm watches! These wear much better on your wrist, and I have seen the same on many men’s wrists. Also great overall collection! Many of these pieces show a mature mindset towards watch collecting - especially the Seiko diver, U/N dress watch and Zenith defy!

good to hear from ya bruv! God bless

Hey Sanjay new to your channel! You have great videos, definitely got a new subscriber! I'm sad it's been a while since you updated! I was wondering your thoughts on the new Tudor Monochrome aka 41, I think it would be right up your alley! Although in fairness it would be pretty close to your 39 pelages, I'm currently debating between that and a possible POS 39.5 used which are found at even slightly cheaper price point. I had True 41mm Omega seamster plain ceramic, but I felt it was just that tad bit too big, I think my true sweet spot is a 40.5mm size!

You know, I have a screwdriver which hadle looks like your microphone. Thank you for your community service.

Good to see you back Sanjay.

That Zenith is insane. The incredible dial, the shade of blue and sunburst. And wow, the faceted case and bracelet. Wow

Great collection love the Mario watch very cool.

solid collection man

Hey Sanjay! When you find the time can you check if the King Seiko bracelet is compatible with the 44GS case? I think the angular nature of the KS bracelet would work better with that case than with the standard GS bracelet. Thanks and keep spreading positivity!!

I like that you have watches you can actually wear. I have a couple of stupidly expensive watches I am afraid to wear.

Miss this…welcome back🎉

Hey Sanjay! Thanks for the wonderful video. Just wondering if you have ever considered doing a video on women's watches. Good women's watches are notoriously difficult to find, especially around the 30-34mm case diameter spec and being automatic. :)

He’s back, baby !

Impressive collection. You can keep the Seikos and the Casios but the other watches are lovely.

Sanjay glad you are back at it, looking forward to your live next week. ❤❤ If you would like me to come on your show as a guest I would be more than happy to. 😊 I’ve been on Tim Write’s lives many times.

Thank you for sharing your watch collecting journey! Where did the SBGW285 go?

That Zenith looks great. I was debating on getting it but everyone said it would be too small. I wear a 36mm explorer everyday. I think it would be perfect.

nice collection the GS elegance looks great I wish they made more watches without a date function nowadays.

Killer collection

Nice collection sanjay, the omega is still a bit large for you though. Zenith is lovely as well as the 62mas. I like the zenith a384 range , but they are a tad small for my wrists. I'm surprised you haven't gone for the bb54 , a great watch and more impressive, than the pele 39 , in charm at least. I think a jlc reverso is right up your street , to be honest.

Good to see you back! *cough* 36mm silver dial Rolex OP *cough*

Where are you brother? So long no signal!

Hey so did you sell your Railmaster 1957? I'm really hoping to get that some day. My only three watches are an 1861 Speedy, G shock 5600 and an old vintage Enicar .. but id like to have an explorer style field watch ... the Railmaster just looks superb and i really loved your video on it

I have a question for you about your previous King Seiko. What did you think of the quality? I really like the look of the new olive green 38mm one with the lume. How does the quality compare to other luxury or entry level luxury brands?

What strap do you have on the Seiko 62mas reissue?

Glad to see you back. What you think about the new GS SBGX355 “Snowflake Quartz”?

@engineer_wannabe

5 ай бұрын

I haven’t seen on in person yet. Some mixed feelings at the moment. That case design in Ti should be very nice….but a little sterile. Price is quite high. I’ve been spoiled by the SBGX259 lol. But my thoughts may change when I see it in the flesh

Love the Christian messages brother.

Hey Daniel! No not really. I just had a bit of a sudden realization while wearing my SLGH013. I love this watch and it’s gorgeous…but it doesn’t look that good on me. It’s about then that I started to really consider the SBGW289. I’m looking forward to seeing the SBGH343 in the flesh too!

Very lovely collection! What size is planet ocean? Also I felt Rikka looked really nice on your wrist, why did you let it go?

@engineer_wannabe

Ай бұрын

Hey again, thanks so much. The PO is 39.5mm The Rikka is very nice but I was really starting to move toward smaller watches and kinda overcorrected, I think. While the Rikka is not too large, it did wear less than ideally on my wrist.

@expertreviews1112

Ай бұрын

@@engineer_wannabe yeah, I think only real fault with Rikka is it's relatively larger lug to lug... The watch face is proportionately small thus wears well on most wrists... That's what I feel.. What's ur take on the new 38mm 62GS SBGH341 & 343? btw that PO is lovely lovely watch Have you tried the 39mm SBGH 267/269?

Miss you Sanjay. Any thoughts on the new 38mm 62gs high beats?

@engineer_wannabe

5 ай бұрын

Thanks, my friend! I’m itching to try one on! The green SBGH343 is on the list but I’m concerned about its thickness to case size ratio 🙂

Hi Sanjay, I am amazed by your collection and content. Really very good taste in each of your pieces. I don't know if you'll be in a position to help me. My wife wants to give me a gift for my anniversary and she wants to buy me my first entry-level luxury watch and I am hesitating between the Seiko SJE093 and the Tudor Pelagos 39. I already know that they are two very different divers, one is a recreation of the skin diver more famous from Seiko and the other is a modern reinterpretation of a true Rolex heritage tool watch. Would you dare to give me your opinion on which of the two you would choose? (without any commitment, of course). Thank you very much in advance.

We have to say you’re a new man ….😊

Surprised you moved on from Sbgw295? Thought you loved that one

33-34mm is your sweet spot, but 36-37mm is totally doable too. The 39.5mm PO is just too big for you. I hate to tell you that, but it's the truth. Strangely, the Tudor BB can work despite it being 39mm. Maybe it's that damn helium release valve that makes the PO look too big 🤔. BTW, I'm still upset with you for letting go of that red Longines diver. THAT watch looked perfect on your wrist. I'm glad you're doing well. Even though I'm not your biggest fan, it's been worrying me that you hadn't produced a video in so long. Bobbys live streams just aren't the same without you. P.S.- I totally agree about the dauphine hands on GS. If they're not there, then it isn't a GS. Those hands say "Grand Seiko" more than even their logo.

I think that Sanjay should stick with watches that have a small size AND a thickness taper. LIke that UN or the Seiko Cocktail Time. It’s okay if it’s big in the middle, but it needs to come back down at the edges. Small rounded wrists make it hard to wear chunky watches. I don’t think the JLC Reverso will ever work for him for that reason, nor the Cartier Santos. In fact, I don’t understand the rumoured enthusiast’s love of the Santos, because Cartier’s strengths lie in their dress watches; A Santos Dumont looks way better and I bet it will sit on Sanjay’s wrist so much better than the sports Santos. Stay away from slabby watches, Sanjay! That’s an order. 😂

Haha thank you, friends! I do miss the Longines LD 36. It will probably make it back into the collection at a future date 🙂 I think the Santos Medium will work quite well. It’s a pretty small watch and so thin too! I’m still deciding so I’ll keep you gentlemen posted 🙂
