Can't wait for the knife collection video. Just yesterday I started carving a Slavic pattern into my Opinel. Great content as always!

Stop being coy. Tell us what you paid for that thing dudester.

What got me started with those Tudor references are the Rolex touches like the crown and markings. Great inspiring vid again.

TGV, this video made me smile. I could hear the happiness of a true enthusiast taking joy in a watch. Congratulations!

Another fantastically written and executed video featuring such a fabulous Tudor timepiece. The video was made all the more special for me, at least, for also briefly featuring the Battleship USS New Jersey (aboard which I once served) at timeframe 17:25. Thank you again for yet another stellar video.

TGV: Please keep up the good work. You got me into the watch hobby and interested in horology in general. I thank you for your time and effort.

Love this Tudor... though for me, the 7928 edges it out as one of my grail watches, which your vid on that reference introduced me to. And was lovely to see the Philly waterfront and, in particular, America's most-decorated battleship, the USS New Jersey, behind your shoulder across the Delaware. As a former sailor who served aboard the New Jersey in Lebanon, my invitation is still open to provide you a free tour throughout the entire battleship as only a former crew-member can provide (we're able to go to all the off-limits areas no tourists ever get to see, personally accompanied by one of the battleship's volunteer caretakers, the hardworking docents). Keep up the great work providing such fabulous vids for us to enjoy!

Served aboard an Arleigh Burke class destroyer, and I had the privilege of seeing the Iowa as she was towed down to long Beach harbor. It was a foggy morning and as you picked out her haze gray profile, her guns and how she rode in the drink, I felt awestruck. Awesome, in the truest sense of the word, not the so cal surfer from the sixty's awesome, but a terrible majesty. I loved my ship, and I'm a small boy guy through and through but, you were truly privileged to have served aboard a ship that is a living symbol of American power at its zenith.

Great taste in knives! I just re-bought my own Kershaw Leek from when I lost it as a summer camp counselor 6 years ago. A piece of me has definitely returned. Love the videos as always! Keep up the fantastic work TGV!

Your video skills are on par with your narration. Your videos are very entertaining and dynamic showing us a little bit of your city and your watch collection. Thanks for the effort you put into presenting quality material.

Great video as always TGV (I hardly ever watch TV now -- I'm always here). I know exactly what you mean.

Hi TGV, I really enjoyed this video because I too have been looking at the Tudor Submariners. My favourite reference has to be the 7016 which features the rose logo. It's a small feature but dives more back into that history that makes it so great. It also carries an ETA movement which gives me that confidence that it can be repaired easily. Beautiful watch and congrats on the buy

My first Tudor exactly, bought in 93, mine had a Rolex strap. Sadly had to sell it ten years ago and recently replaced it with a Black bay 58. Though I love the bb now I will have to save up again as my itch isn’t scratched. Thanks

The Leek is a superb knife, although I prefer a plain blade bc I’ve never been able to amply sharpen serrations… Thank you for the great video. The Tudor Sub is one of my grail watches.

Love the H.R. Giger print in the background!

My only advice is that you’ll probably regret selling your 30th’s Submariner, since it represents an important turning point of your life as a first grail before your KZread career. It’s your watch and your decision, but that’s my two pence.

I used to have one and bought it for $1200...now look what they go for. Oh and mine had the Rolex branded solid link bracelet. Love those tall crystals.

Hmm, the Sub I could possibly save for and not look out of place with. I too also like the understated image of Tudor. The only people who would know, are people I'd want to talk to.

Heh. Way back my father gave me a Tudor 79190 submariner. Knowing nothing about watches, my first thought was it was a fake Rolex, lol. Never kept up with the box or papers. I wore it everywhere, doing everything. It is a little banged up, runs fast, and the bracelet is pretty worn, but the lume has faded to an amazing cream color and it is still a great watch.

I recently watched Austin Powers and now when you say "yeah" I can't help but hear him. I'm a long time fan but never made that connection before.

Good evening TGV, great you made it back with a real smasher. The Tudor is a great piece, in a way it looks much more rugged and solid than its Rolex countdrpart. Enjoy this Subby.

Great film TGV, very much enjoyed. I’m pretty set on a Black Bay 58 when I can get hold of one, is that something you could review and discuss? There ere plenty of reviews out there but I would value your opinion and insight greatly. I’m hoping it will be my ‘perfect sub’. Many thanks and keep up the good work!

The amount of watch lovers who are waiting for Tudor to make the Tudor Submariner again, and unfortunately I don't think they will any time soon. Tudor has invested far too much money into the Black Bay range.

Their big brother would never allow its return. They can't put that name on an 'inferior' timepiece. Even if the average Rolex Sub buyer probably never heard of Tudor. It just can't happen. Besides, Black Bay is still the Sub. Just has its own name and more distinct design attributes to separate it and have an identity. For one, I kind of prefer the look of a coined bezel.

Hey TGV, I love your videos and the effort you put into them! I have a question regarding your Tudor Submariner. I would be interested in acquiring one of these over a Black Bay 58 but only if I could use it for what it was originally made for, so my question is; if you could dive , can you and would you wear it diving? let alone snorkelling.

Thanks so much sir for your perspective and one of the men who 1st introduced me to the art and everything that goes into find watch making. Great work , I appreciate it.

Really didn't get Tudor or understand the love people had for it. In fact I didn't like them.....until I was finally able to see one and handle it. No I'm a complete Tudor convert and love them. Stunning watch sir. Enjoy and hope you enjoyed the races 🛩️

That Blancpain looked amazing. Shame you let it go, I would have considered it for the same purpose as your AP dress watch.

I just got a Tissot Janeiro which I am absolutely in love with however it's at the smallest end of the scale for me since my wrist is 19cm/7.5 inches. What kind of price was the BP?

I wish I knew more about watches in the late 1990s, that was my peak earning period into the early 2000s before this area had a horrible recession. That's a great Tudor you have. I really like it. I can see the appeal of it. I prefer the ETA modes as the service costs can be a lot less since many will know how to work on it rather than the specialist of the newer in house movements. Enjoy the watch. I would love to have one myself.
