It is one of the best looking watches I own.

No one can question your passion for watches :)

Hahaha. Thanks for WATCHing

There are many more than 10. But that would have made for a very long video

Thank you for sharing with us your viewers your reasons that you love watches. I also enjoy watches for many of the same reasons that you have shared. Like you, certain watches are connected with certain events in my life. I still have the very first watch that I received 50 years ago when I was thirteen: a little hand wind Swiss Aureole and it still works! And then there is a Seiko 5 from 1984 that was the first gift from my mother-in-law and it also still runs. Watches are filled with memories but they are also items that have great utility. Their design meshes with their purpose in telling time along with many other functions depending upon their complications. Their engineering and design are interesting and they provide a lot of fun. In addition their small size means that a watch collection does not require a lot of space unlike my other passion: books. I notice that behind you in every one of your videos are book shelves filled with books (sci/fi fantasy?) and I love it! I collect 19th and early 20th century adventure fiction as well as books on history BUT sadly (much to my wife's dismay) unlike watches they take up a lot of space. Books are beautiful, informative and entertaining and watches are also beautiful, useful and entertaining but watches can be collected without filling the house thus perhaps permitting greater marital harmony.

Well said. Yes I also love books and have had the same thought about the space that both the books take up vs watches.

Well said James! These mechanical marvels are just awesome! Nice Pogue there James! You have a superb collection bud! Absolutely stunning!

Thanks mate

I think I enjoy watching videos about watches and researching them more than the watches themselves. And for me, it’s a hobby I can enjoy all the time. No pun intended. If you’re wealthy enough to be able to collect cars, you are not driving a car all the time, but you can wear your watch anywhere and everywhere. Unless you’re wearing a Berny, don’t go in the water. Ha! Kidding. Maybe. I love their Cartier Santos Homage BTW. Thanks!

Still coming. I like to have the watch for a while before doing the full review. So I can have a proper feel for it.
