The Best Price to Pay For Watches in Summer 2024
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Luxury watches cost serious money, but value is relative. Both a Rolex Submariner and a Tudor Pelagos are excellent dive watches, but the Tudor costs half as much. Tonight, Tim Mosso compares competing luxury watches at different price points to find the best value in each class. From Tudor to Omega to Chopard, we have alternatives to the usual suspects for watch collectors of all budgets.
Compare the Rolex Submariner to the Tudor Pelagos LHD. The 41mm steel Submariner Date costs $10,250, and the Pelagos LHD costs $5,025. The Rolex is guaranteed to hold its value and is worth the wait, but those without the means or the patience will be well served by the Pelagos. Its deluxe extensible diving clasp, 500-meter diving depth, and helium escape valve make the Pelagos LHD a viable alternative not only to the Rolex Submariner but also to the Rolex Sea Dweller.
Tonight's show compares watches from Audemars Piguet, Blancpain, Vacheron Constantin, Chopard, Glashutte Original, Zenith and other leading brands.
All of this plus live discussion and watch collector wrist shots appears tonight on "Watches Tonight!"

*love* the Sea Q panorama date, but it’s huge. The smaller 39.5mm Sea Q is perfect, but it’s a gutted money-grab: different movement, no panorama date, closed caseback, and a meager 40 hour power reserve. Why, GO, why 🤦🏻♂️
Listening to Tim described the differences of choice between a Speedmaster and a patek perpetual calendar. Vintage is more than entertaining. Thank you Tim.

I try to offer value for the live audience. If I don't interact with the real-time viewers, then why even do this in a live format? Best, Tim
Just bought myself a GP Laureato 42mm black ceramic and I couldn’t be more excited about it. Wear super comfortable and is just so stunning. And the pre-owned price is crazy low these days.

That's an incredible watch that's equal to the best. Put an AP badge on the dial, and I can't imagine what it would cost. Best, Tim
Great content as always Tim, you never fail to impress
Still may favourite show every week. Knowledge, energy, engagement, and no ads. Bravo Tim

@@the1916companywatchreviews Hi Tim, as I’m sure you’re aware in the KZread world, audience size is almost always inversely proportional to quality. The masses chase the quick thrills. You’re an asset to T1916C. All the best, Ed P.S. Enjoying your contribution to Q&P
Great video Tim! Fully agree with you about Moritz Grossman. Definitively one of the hidden jewels in high horology!! Best, Amintas
Tim, I love the passion, fire, and enthusiasm you brought to tonight’s episode. To keep up the intensity maybe do the program every 2 weeks? Up to you, but thanks for focusing on us value collectors!

Didn't do the Unbound Gravel - but off to Innusbruk in a couple days to race the Tour de Transalp!
Tim, brilliant as always. Of course the Duometre is a great call out, really like the new steel blue dial version. Does Zenith make any vertical clutch chronographs? Really enjoy having continual action on the dial but that seems hard to find in their catalogue. Thanks as always! Cheers.
Tim, brilliant show tonight fantastic recommendations!
Excellent show! Great suggestions! Well done, Tim!
Great show as always. I live in London. Everyone calls the clock Tower, housing the clock and bell, Big Ben, even though it's technically just the name of the bell. The other main mistake are people calling Tower bridge, 'London bridge'.
Great show Tim! Awesome topic and analysis. Yeah Blancpain wants $300 to send my watch to Secaucus for a water testing and "cleaning". They used to test for free at Boutique in NYC. It's a Léman btw.

That's just weird. Blancpain is high luxury, and for that kind of money, a water test and (local!) shipping should be free. Service is one thing, but asking $300 for a water test is like charging for the perfunctory car wash after dealer service on your car. Best, Tim

You have in the past been a great advocate for the Carl f. Bucherer ScubaTec. How do you stack it up to the Pelagos or the GO Sq?

Tim, do you think the Chrono Sport was well-received at Rolex because their CEO previously helmed Zenith? I love the Chrono Sport, especially the new titanium version.

yes and a especially in red...poor decision there. many times less is more.
All prices across the board have increased. It's the new normal. Even mid range like Tudor are creeping closer to OP prices. Jlc, Iwc, Rolex, Bvlgari, Chopard etc are going up almost 1k cad per year last 3 years Iwc ingeniur is still running 4k CAD cheaper than Piaget polo, GP laurriato, Chopard Alpine eagle and Bvlgari octo

True. We sell both new and used watches these days, but preowned is sorta where my heart is. It's where I started with WuW a decade ago, and I still think used is the best route for value. Best, Tim

Bait and switch!!
