I have no idea about this but my assumption is that Kevin is likely an investor in Teddy's company and has behind the scenes been a mentor to him. For some crazy reason, I was recommended this channel about 6 months ago and have enjoyed the content. I have resisted buying a watch as Teddy recommended doing. Though I can afford to buy watches at higher price points Teddy has shown that there are great watches that can be had for under $500. I will likely start there with an Orient but will add an Omega at some point. Maybe when I retire in a few years. Thank you to both Teddy and Kevin for doing these videos together!!

Love the studio quality stuff, really helps bring the watch to life like I'm there. That red AT does look pretty stunning. Teddy, how'd you compare it to the red of the Autumn GS you reviewed a couple of years back?

I look forward to the Teddy x Kevin videos so much! Always great content!

Great video. Thank you for highlighting one of my favorite watch brands.

Absolutely love these videos with you both. Keep them coming :)

I like these frank discussions between Kevin & Teddy. I own four Omega watches, and Omega offers amazing value/bang for the buck from a Swiss watch brand. The Planet Ultra Ultra Deep may not be seen in the wild too often, but neither is the PloProf -- both are truly professional dive watches. I would love to see Omega take the color blue of the bezel, and put it on the dial of the Aqua Terra! Spectacular blue that really pops!

I really love the Omega with the sector dial. The vintage design speaks to me. So does that dark green dial with the moonshine case.

Cant wait to see you guys do a 2022 watch shopping video.

Kudos. The clarity of the video is tremendous. Well done.

Omega's are my favorite watches. I own other brands, but whenever I go somewhere and only want to take one watch, I always pick omega. Been wearing my AT world timer a lot lately.

At first I thought Moonswatch was a great idea until I found out more about the product. If there is ever a problem with it you just throw it away because it is not repairable. The crystal is not a crystal it's acrylic, which does allow you to buff out scratches. If the acrylic ever breaks to a point where it needs to be replaced it is irreplaceable. The acrylic crystal is laser fused to the bio ceramic (plastic) body. Basically all they've done is taken a Swatch and put the Omega logo on it and boosted the price. Honestly for the money, you can certainly buy a better quality watch elsewhere.

Entry Level? Once upon a time, I would say! To call >5K watches „Entry Level“ is pretty strange even in times prices for luxury watches are sky rocketing without limits as it seems! In hard times there are other brands which would deserve to be called „entry level“, such as Seiko, Mudo, Longines, up to Nomos, Tudor… But yes, if you are thinking about Rolex, Lange&Söhne, Jaeger, Patek… well, Thema less costy Omegas could be seen as entry level.

$5000 is very affordable, period. That is if you're part of the 1%. I'm proud of Teddy for keeping it real by disputing the definition of "affordable". $500 or less is what I'd consider "affordable". For me, $500 for a watch that won't even tell time as accurate as quartz is a lot of money to spend on a watch.

If you need accurate time from an analog watch (assuming you can’t just look at your phone as most addicted cretins would protest), Casio is the way to go. If you like watches as mechanical curiosities and don’t care if it’s off by a few seconds/day or minutes/week, then $500 is a good range for what amounts to a hobby expense.

Realizing that the Swatch-Omega is practically disposable (there’s no way to replace the acrylic if you broke it) it’s really disappointing. Not worthy. Not even as a part of a collection, that you’re not planning to use.

I usually agree with everything these two say, but on this occasion I don't. I think Omega have gone completely off the reservation in 2022. The Moonswatch is a plastic gimmick that cheapens the brand and the new colourful dials reek of a "me too" attempt at Rolex's 2020 OP collection. What the hell is going on at Omega at the moment? I now wouldn't touch the brand at an entry level point.
