Just a quick correction: Omega’s “x meters” ratings are a rare case where the WR ratings in depth/length units don’t border on false advertising. Its ratings actually mean that its watches are WR to those depths.

Yep. Casio as well.

Cartier Santos would have been interesting to see due to its remarkable history being the first wrist watch ever created.

Thanks for the entertaining video! I think “secondary market” is a better term for what is meant here. Grey market is typically used to refer to new, but not through an authorized dealer network.

The Datejust has such a variety of how it can be configured. Different color faces. Really dressy with a fluted bezel & Jubilee, or more utilitarian with a plain bezel & Oyster. Then it can be jazzed up even more with two-tone, solid gold, & even diamonds. Mine would be a 36mm, black-face, plain bezel, with an Oyster bracelet.

Wow. I was not expecting the Datejust to be the most popular watch! Great video Jenni!

This was amazing ! Thank you, I throughly enjoyed (and mostly agree) with this epic countdown.

Thank you for all hard work you do , so we can be more educated about watches .!

A small note. The Girard Perregaux "Mimo" was introduced three years BEFORE the DateJust showing the date in a window. Rolex are careful with how they describe the DateJust "the first automatic watch with a date window". The Mimo was manually wound. Nevertheless, most people will say that Rolex were first to introduce a watch with a date window.

Oh wow, I am basic. I love the date just but my favorite OP is the no day/date no bezel. Dumb, I know. Just love how clean it is...

My current favorite watch is my Traska Venturer GMT. I have a Grand Seiko, many Seikos, Tudor Black Bay, and had a Rolex Explorer that I sold a while back as I didn't wear it as much as my Tudor because I didn't want to mess it up. So when I sold it, it was in great condition

I'm actually wearing one of the watches you mentioned! 😺

I LOVE my GWM5610U. The resin strap doesn't bug me, and it's my daily driver. My poor mechanical watches usually just gather dust in the watch box.

Datejust is the objective goat imo. Class and borderline sporty. Unisex wearability. Never comes off as snobbish.

Thr Datejust might be the most popular overall (due to overall affordability and all round useabilty) but you can buy one in an AD at retail right now, so it's certainly not the most desired, that title goes to the GMT or the Daytona which still IMHO has further to fall in seconary prices.

I just ordered Speedmaster watch from Exquisite Timepieces! I'm so excited to get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love your channel, Jenni. Only wish you'd slow down your delivery just a wee bit so I can catch everything you're saying.

Got a sub, want a Datejust, question is which one..... there's so many choices lol.

What a great video! I will share this as a good summary for people when they ask me about watches

No GMT Master II Pepsi? Interesting.

Missing a zenith off the list IMHO but more a connoisseurs brand. I think the Tag Monaco could have made the list too, maybe just outside the top 10. Great video nonetheless Jenni.

Hello, fully agree about Zenith, about Heuer and about Jenni's video.

Jenni, please tell us what is the best ''grey market'' place to buy a watch.

There is a Rolex for every watch enthusiast (if you can buy one), most will love Daytona and Submariner but the staples are Datejust, Oyster Perpetual, Daydate and Explorer!

My citizen Tsuyosa is running at +3 seconds… better than some of my Swiss movements. My seiko sarbo17 is running negative 15; mechanical watches are weird

Yes to all of them!

Love, love, love my Speedy!

I am new to watches and am amazed that at the culture behind it…I never knew it existed. I have to say when I just viewed this list and honestly I don’t find one watch on the list appealing at all.

I bought a DJ and an Explorer and those are the only two watches I wear now. Should I sell my Submariner?

Datejust was my first decent watch, but it's a bit dated now IMO. Explorer, Submariner (not date) and GMT would be my top Rolex's and top 3 watches, with the Omega Planet Ocean (you know, the best Omega that nobody mentions 😂) joint third ; )

The rolex sub is indestructible, even if you buy it new today for 8 or 9 k you can wear it every day till the day you die,then can be past on to your family so a good investment I think.

My favorite watch is actually the one in the thumbnail where it says “not this one” 😂

Well you’ve done your homework, so I’ll have to accept you’re correct, but how Cartier isn’t there is beyond me.

I miss my Datejust with cobalt blue Wimbledon face, fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet. 😢

@jenni DD 36 mm or is that a DJ 31 with the presidential bracelet?

Where is the reverso ? 😢

I tend to avoid the "most popular" watches. I wear nice watches for me not to show off to others. I do have swiss watches but many are German and the average person on the street doesn't even know the brand never mind they are luxury watches . Thats not hard as most people only know Rolex Omega Breitling which is why you see so many on peoples wrists it's so sad there are literally 1,000s of amazing watches and you see the same few models time and time again .

When I saw the 'most googled' metric I was like, damn, it's going to be the Apple Watch isn't it.

Casio F91W if we’re talking iconic and dare I say the Apple Watch if we’re talking commercial success

I am too old to have had a F91W, when I was a nipper, but my GF bought three in various colours. I borrowed her orange one as a gym / Spa watch. And I have lent that watch to my young friend whose super trendy, and is in a band. He's currently wearing it, while he's touring the US. I am lending him watches, as he's new to the hobby, and trying to help him buying that wrong first watch, which you later regret. It's a great watch, and I wouldn't have known that without being lent one.

The fact your thumbnail is what it is proves it’s what the thumbnail claim it’s not.

Jenni's accent rocks. And her voice is so soothing. Dunno about that Rolex obsession though... 😜

Sub is #1 by a mile.

Great list (and thanks for a video on a rainy Saturday in SoCal) - except for 3 and 1. The 300 has a lot of competition in the crowded diver space, not sure who outside of Omega diehards would choose it if money and availability were not issues. And maybe I’m just too cynical but the Datejust, OP, Explorer I are just ‘Rolexes for those who can’t get a Sub, GMT, or Daytona at an AD’ consolation prize.

The Datejust is the perfect watch for a girl. I've bought one for an ex-GF. I live in Geneva, and I've seen some amazing watches on friends and acquaintances. Lots of Rolexes, predictably. Only ONCE have I seen a Tudor on someone. And I've NEVER seen a Datejust on anyone with a penis. Lots of Sub's, lots of Daytona's, lots of GMT's, some Explorer II's, some Day-Dates.

I think the Aquanaut actually looks better than the Nautilus as it doesn’t have those ugly ears. Also had a Submariner and found it boring. Blancpain 50 Fathoms nicer.
