The transformer watch was my favorite. Had one of those but in a different color. Awesome watch collection! I concur.

Fantastic, love your wife’s comments. Her opinions are valuable, and a reality check for watch ‘enthusiasts’. The design ethos of many watches don’t translate to real world aesthetics. Really appreciate her taking the time. Thanks.

6:25 You mentioned how the Casio CA 53 reminded you of your happy childhood. After giving it some thought, I have to say that I couldn't agree with you more. I think that's how I got into watch collecting in general. Vintage (or vintage-esque) Casio watches reminded me of a great childhood with fantastic parents that loved & encouraged me in whatever I did. Love your content & don't ever stop doing what you do! Cheers!

Loved the Vertex. Great show thank you & your wife. 👍😎

6:16 Man, same. I know exactly how you feel. So incredibly blessed. Thanks for that honesty.

Keep these videos coming! Probably one of the top three best watch youtubers out there definitely. Absolute joy to hear reviews from non-watch people as well, I started hanging out with and asking non-watch people about watches, and so far has proven to be much more insightful and enjoyable.

Another fantastic show MWC! Really enjoyed this tour around your watch box and it’s always fun to hear Mrs MWC’s thoughts 😂 It is actually really interesting to get an outside perspective on a watch, it’s so easy for us to get caught up in the minutiae of a particular watch we can’t see the wood for the trees 😂

8:16 ...The Seiko in the background :D

Wife thought the latest Explorer 1 was shouting too much. OMG she's an expert. Long live the 114270

Your wife's reactions are my favorite (tell her she's brilliant), and I loved the brief look at each of your favorites, followed by what she said (I like you reading the notes vs. forcing her to be on audio or video). I like the Arnie a lot for what it means/represents (and my buddy with one keeps telling me I need one), but it's definitely no beauty queen. That's okay, not all watches need to be. That Vertex is a beauty, and the Aqua Lion is temping. Those 3-D lumed numerals are dreamy. This was the perfect execution of a video. I recently showed my wife my watches for consideration for my big milestone birthday. The reaction was interesting. She didn't even have a comment on the Speedy Pro moon watch, and just sort of blankly stared even with the explanation. She asked questions about the Speedy '57 (blue), sneered at the blue Pelagos (that hurt), didn't even say a word at the new blue Breitling Super Ocean on bracelet, no real response to the BB58 black or blue, said I would have to grow a mustache for the BB S&G, Ranger was a bit boring to her, not much reaction to the BB Pro, and the Rolex Explorer II was pretty much shock over the price. Well, she was shocked overall at the costs because she's not a watch person. In the end, she had the most visceral/positive reaction to the BB GMT Pepsi (one of my top few anyway). The Omega Railmaster (black/gray dial), and Grand Seiko SBGE285 "Mist Flake" rounded out her top 3. When I told her the cost of the SBGE285, she said I might as well get a Rolex if I'm going to spend that much. Maybe that was permission? MWC, what does your wife think of the current black or polar Explorer II? That didn't make my wife's top 3, but I'm curious what yours thinks. Is it also an old man's watch?

Big thanks to your wife for providing very interesting comments. Very refreshing.

How lovely to see you have several watches in your collection that are also my favourite watches. Also great to hear your wife's take on your choices. The squished bug Seiko is also a favourite. Squale watches are amazing, and I love the mesh bracelet. Sinn makes some wonderful watches, although getting up there in price, but always good for us eternal boys.😂 I am very relieved to see you have the 'Arnie'. Nothing much more to say about the 'Arnie' other than brilliant. No Rolex in my collection, yet. 😂 Thank you for the introduction to Vertex watches. I will have to look into them, as well as the CWC watches. Thank you very much for sharing your collection with us all.

Lmao only minutes in to it

This brings back memories when I was first getting into watches many years ago. Me and the now former missus would pop into town and into the jewellers where she would look at rings and things and I'd be looking at the cheaper end watches (money was tight then, I guess it is now as well). I'd pick one and show her and usually I'd get the "I don't like it, but if you want it it's up to you", we'd walk out with (yet) another ring or something and no watch. But now if I like a watch and can justify it I just might get it after all it's me who'll be paying for it and wearing it. Top video TMWC.
