I remember people were saying how Seiko lost an opportunity when shinzo Abe, prime minister of Japan, wore an omega constellation during a promo of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic games at the end of the Rio games. Seiko didn't lose an opportunity. He was required to wear it because Omega is the official timekeeper of the Olympic games. He was not allowed to wear his Seiko watches. Kinda off topic but this video brought up that topic.

@@aahchoo1 I don't blame Swatch...I would do it too. At least he wore my favorite Omega. It makes sense. Omega paid a ton of money to be the official timekeeper of the Olympics. Their logo is plastered everywhere in each Olympic stadium...seen by billions of people...that is not cheap. Additionally, the only watch commercials during the Olympics are Omega. Imagine if Nike paid the producers of Back to the Future to have their product featured and then as a promo for the sequel Marty McFly ditched his Air Mags and worst Boost...it wouldn't make sense. It's just marketing. Shinzo owns several Omega watches on his own anyways. Though I think he much prefers Seiko since he owns a ton of models and wears them the most frequently.

Nice video teddy! Maybe do a video on watches worn by a certain country's military. For example, what did the french air force, navy and army wear in period....?

You're the only watch youtuber I can stand.

Hi Teddy, I like how you have zoomed in so we can see the wall decorations better. As a side point, in the picture where the world leaders are seated, the British PM shown is Clement Atlee, not Winston Churchill.

I understand Dwight Eisenhower wore a Cricket and loved the alarm feature.

My watch collection has Navivorces, Timexes, Armitrons, Casios, Diesels, Fossils, Invictas, Seikos, and Tissots...that's about as "high-end" as I get...but I love them all for different reasons and don't care what other's think.

How about a video, or series of videos, on iconic calibers? You could go far back and describe some older, fundamental ones and then work your way through the decades to more modern ones. Another related idea might be to spend time on one movement and really explain how it works in detail and why it’s special.

How about the Vulcain Cricket? That should be considered the real Prez watch, since it’s been given to every Prez since Truman.

I always thought that President Ronald Regan had a Corum $20 gold piece watch with a black croc band. Maybe it was the salesman that told me when I was buying mine. It sealed the deal for me.

Great Britain was represented by Clement Attlee in Potsdam,Churchill was not the Prime Minister at the time

I was in New York in 2005, less than a year after Reagan died, the watch was in the display case in Trump Towers along with a photo of Trump with Ronald and Nancy and a small flag to commemorate his passing. Although this was located right near the gents toilet which didn't seem the most respectful location.

Id love to see Clintons real collection

Nice to be able to do this kind of thing without getting political. :)

Two ideas for videos in the same vein; watches in movies and athletes and their watches.

I would have thought that the Vulcain Cricket would have been the most popular presidential watch.

Moving forward with the American tradition, I think a modern look at American watch brands would be really interesting, between the intricately hand made of Keaton Myrick, thefully in-house makers like Weiss, or rgm to the assemblers like Hager, kobold, oak and Oscar, shinola, martenero, heitis, Detroit watch company, and others

I LOVED my Ironman! Left it on my frikkin roof while changing in the woods for a LOOONG drive home after 8 hours of mountain biking... Was 3 hours down the road when I realized it; made a detour off the interstate to Wal-Mart and got whatever the best one they had at the time was, lol. I think it was 1996... Great vid, BTW!

Request:famous footbal coach watches...

Please do a video about Titan watches

It'd be cool to see the pocket watches aswell.

Potsdam.....not Postdam ......duh

What’s interesting about the last watch on the video, (regardless of if you love or hate Trump) is that it’s one watch, the same watch, owned by 2 US Presidents. Which I don’t think has ever happened before. I wonder what the value on that one will be one day?
