What do Rolex, Omega, and Jaeger-LeCoultre all have in common? Well they are in Brad's watch collection! Along with a less talked about brand (Mido) and a double stamp (L.L. Bean and Hamilton!).
Of course the Rolex Datejust gets a lot of attention but there is a lot of variety in Brad's collection that shows he's in it for the love of watches. My (Michael) favorite watch he's rocking has to be that Omega Seamaster. It's a bit tough to see in the video but the sun faded or darkened the dial to this spotted rose color and it's stunning, I've never seen anything like it. Looking beyond his big name brands though I also really liked Brad's taste in military watches, regardless of size. His Mido is gorgeous and is a watch that I would have definitely skipped over if I was on the hunt due to size. Maybe now I'll reconsider! And like always, whenever I see a Hamilton field khaki ancestor I go and ALMOST buy a Hamilton Field Khaki. Will I? Maybe!

Today, we're taking a closer look at the collection of a watch geek named Brad, whose collection includes everything from an LL Bean stamped Hamilton to JLC.
First up, we have that LL Bean stamped Hamilton field watch, which was borne out of a love for the vintage Hamilton field watches from wars gone by, as well as an admiration for all things double stamped (like you might find on a Tiffany signed Rolex or Patek). While those can be incredibly expensive, this Hamilton option is relatively affordable, and offers a great little piece of history in the process.
From there we get into his Rolex Datejust, a blue dialed piece with a Jubilee bracelet. It was a gift from his father, who intended to pass the watch on to Brad after he passed, but decided one day that he wanted to be around to see his son take on the watch and get to wear it. We move then into his Mido Multifort field watch, another vintage field watch, this one with a cross scratched into the dial from the previous owner.
Next up on the list is Brad's vintage 18k gold Jaeger LeCoultre dress watch. It came on the original strap, though that has since moved to a safe for safe keeping. Its a simple, time only option that epitomizes classical 50s and 60s dress watches in all the right ways. In a similar vein, we have his Omega Seamaster with its gold capped case and rosy copper colored dial.

This video is proof that you don’t need a massive number of watches in your collection, I have a vintage Omega similar to the one he shows here, and I’m thinking it’s time to change the strap.

    I really like this video guys! It has so much warmth and depth and character to it; from the scenery, to the decoys, the watches, and especially Brad’s music and stories. I think that’s what I like most about vintage watches, they have such a great personality to them and a lot of stories to tell. I also really appreciate that Brad‘s collection is not necessarily the most obvious or expensive watches, but rather pieces that have an emotional value to him. Lastly, as someone with a child on the way, I really like the idea of being able to give them things that have given me joy and that we can bond over.
