There's watch reviews, expert reactions, top 10 lists, the best and worst of the industry and a whole bunch of memes, too. So if you like Swiss watches, German watches, Japanese watches-whatever-you'll be sure to enjoy AMW! - Zábava
If the author of the book Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy had a watch channel it would sound exactly like this
Although I’m not saying they’re the same person, nobody saw them together in the same room ;)
And since no digital watches were mentioned here, that sort of checks out.

Or possibly Terry Pratchett
That is a top tier compliment, thank you!

Congrats on 200K+ subs. Well deserved.
Thank you!
That has got to be the quickest 0-200K subscribers on WatchTube. Congrats from me too Andrew
Proud of you Andrew, I watch you all the way from Honduras.
The watches are beautiful, but our definitions of “cheap” and “bargain” are extremely different.
Please elaborate……
Is there a watch channel on CZcams that’s better at combining great information with entertaining commentary. I think not.
Great job, Andrew.
This is a presentation watch channel. It’s definitely top tier in that category.
Nico Lenard is top BS and trolling.
Wrist Watch Revival is in deep competition with three or four others as top restoration/repair.
And there are several other categories I also find interesting and recommend above this channel, but not in its own category. He’s definitely an excellent presenter especially for us common folk who can spend $200,000 on a single watch. (I have two watches worth over $10,000 but a dozen more I actually wear everyday worth $60-$300 and generally prefer them, with my never sell favourite being worth at best $250 new).
Great video as always. Fun fact about Zelos is that Elshan is in the process of moving certain pieces in basic colors to regular production
You’re a class act Andrew, keep doing what you’re doing.
Very entertaining, and the insight into some brands previously unknown to me is the icing on the cake.
The Beaubleu looks like it's taking off the Raketa Copernicus
Was just going to say the same. Not an expensive watch but was very original
Good knowledge!
You beat me to it. Good form !
I have one old from 80s :)
@@piotrkaczmarczyk1792 Jealous 😄
A great review. Informative and entertaining.
Who cares about the watches, the moderation goes down as some of the best dialogue that is more fun to listen to, letting you forget time itself. Thank you!
Carefully curated selection of wonderful watches, described in terms sublime and sometimes surreal. Superb, I chortled.
Great video, thank you for introducing me to the Radcliffe brand!
I would recommend to include Wise watches from Thailand in the next episode, they are great quality from a country no one expects
Any models to look out for?
@@shazawan I personally have just ordered the ADAMASCUS AD840B.C Bronze model, I will be happy to share my impressions as soon as the watch arrived

You are compleletly right. Those Wise watches are sweet.
You are the "Jeremy Clarkson of the watch world" when it comes to word play and descriptions
Brilliant!

Love Zelos, love Baltic and love RZE too! Great video 😊
WAS NOT EXPECTING TO SEE THE SCARIFOUR ON HERE!!!!! purchased the orange dial and I can't wait to get it!
Great review again👍Thankyou
What a great collection, there are so many great options in this space, really exciting times. I had been daily wearing a 2019 Submariner until I got my Paul Newman Nivada Chronoking last October, I absolutely love it, its sits perfectly on the wrist at 38mm and the quality is unbelievable for sub £500. It also gets lots of admiration and comments. Great channel, keep releasing the great content.
Highly enjoyable content mate. This one especially, because it's making my mind wonder what can be tomorrow, compared to what might be someday...
Great content, some nice watches to keep an eye out for, thanks
Excellent video. That Zelos Stonefish is a work of art. I think I need to have one.
Good gosh, I want them all! Except the Radcliffe. Another great video AMW.
Great watches! Excellent video. Thank you
Thanks Andrew! Sellita and Myota never had it so good!
Fantastic selection of watches with your unique twist Andrew!!! Thanks as always for not simply reproducing the same watches and same opinions as everyone else!
Your writing in this episode is superb. Beautifully crafted similies and next-level niche references. And yes I was doing that too when I was 15... 😂
Great video...I rarely see a watch I've not heard of/seen before. But you've put out a video full of them😂.
Bravo sir🫡
Over 200k. Well done sir! Congratulations. 🎉
Interesting pick of watches. I’m sometimes stuck on the caliber inside. But they are damn good. 👍😎
..."and down would only work on a particularly thin albino"... Just when I think your humor and information can't get better, it does! Did I ever think I would actually add another reason to love the weekend by knowing you have another video to enjoy on my Saturday morning? Thank you AGAIN Andrew!
I had ordered that same Zelos swordfish 38 but then came across a Glycine combat sub 36mm on Jomashop for a little bit more and went with that instead. Still want a Zelos in the future but I don’t regret getting the Glycine.
woohoo!!! .. 200k subs Andrew! well done mate!
I learnt to drive in a VW polo harlequin. My instructor saw one at a dealer, and ended up being able to get one. He called his company "harlequin diver training". A dull, yet true, fact.
Unless they were using it as a boat and using it for teaching aspiring sub-aquarists, but I'm guessing that is just a typo.
Nice video and watches selection,
Thanks ! Though I guess I would have also added Echo/Neutra to the list, they quite nailed it as well !
This is a good list of good priced watches of some brands I've never heard of and will be looking into. Thanks.
Aragon, which used to be Android, has been around for 3 decades and offers some very well-made watches at great price points.
Henry Archer makes some beautiful watches. I recommend them
200k lets goo! also the ARKEN is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love the fact you look at all brands not just big boys.
Thank you for introducing me the Radcliffe L'Inversee, I really like this special freaky watch, pre-ordered already!! 🤓👍
Thank you for this. Now that Arken is on my radar.
Same but just went on their site and the pre-order window is closed.
I owned the Baltic MR01 and loved it, and definitely want to add more watches from the list 😁👍🏽
Off topic, I'm pretty sure you're next in line to take Sir David Attenborough place for commentaries when time's due 😂 brilliant 👌🏻
Now THAT is a great idea.
Great content... thanks mate
Great video. Love the selection. I might have added San Martin. Pretty nice watches for the price. But really, Andrew nailed it.
Great video. have the Nivada Grenchen. Love it! Been trying to decide what Zelos and Baltic models I like best. Lots to close from. Oddly enough I found myself wanting the watermelon after this haha 😂
Great video as always. I do love Tayeb's productions (my purple Radcliffe Le Dôme is a stunner and it will be hard to wait for the turquoise Inversée).
You could have mentionned CW...Nope, you did! I am found of Atowak (the Tarantula) and Boldr (the Safari Vogelkop Superb with its musou black dial). I will get the MD watches Caturix (a fantastic regulator watch) after the kickstarter campain that has been a fantastic success. Oh, and Henry Archer is making superb divers for around 500€
Thanks again Andrew!
A most-amazing pick of fabulous budget (well, at least well under $1k) watches…and well-deserved congrats for cresting 200k members.
Damn, Andrew. Nice Jeff Buckley reference! “Grace” was such a legendary album.
Another fantastic and fun review. I’m looking forward to your channel growing.🎉
Please please please🙏make this a recurring topic! Ive discovered a few absolute gems (BeauBleu...omg) thanks to this video and hope to discover more in the future!
About time someone showed Beaubleu some love. Still can't spell it right, though 😂Another great video my dear Mr. Talking Hands!
Spoke to the founder of Arken and his buddy helping him out at BWM day a few weeks back, I was blown away by the quality, care and attention to details of the watch as well as box, warrenty card etc. Really cool brand. Their watches were waiting listed, but i managed to walk away with an awesome hat :)
Thank you Andrew.
I really enjoyed your review. I’m surprised you didn’t review Dan Henry Watches. Have you reviewed his watches before?
Great list, thank you 🙂
Oh, love the Arken Alterum, BTW
Been watching here and there. Now subbed.
Very nice offerings and entertaining as always- thank you. I noticed a lack of signed crowns in many examples; anyone here care one way or another? I prefer signed but it’s not a deal breaker.
What a great video, man
Ciao, lovely video. I suggest Raidillion brand. Simply because I fell in love with it and its story.
Thanks Andrew, I’ve often wondered what GMT watches were for !
Watching your videos feels like having a conversation with that rare dude who is also into watches, warm , friendly and interesting, one day i would visit england to see you in person and a chelsea match:)
Hello and thanks for this video. As a microbrands french ... Yes, my english sucks, so what?! ... lover, it has been a true delight to discover this video. And not only because of the two french microbrands into. But also, and at first, because I discovered a brand I never hadn't heard of before, Benjamin James. And in a second time, because of the Radcliffe's new piece of pure madness! Thank you!
Signum watches are a great brand, especially their new Cuda 39mm
My wife has bought me a BALL Engineer Legend and I cant stop wearing or looking at it, its beautiful.
Any plans to review any of their offerings??
Great video 👍 thanks
Wearing my Baltic aquascaphe now and still the big love. Every release they offer is unique, simple but in a positive way with crazy attention to detail.. love this Brand and wish them all the best!
You could also test the Chinese watches, there are not only replicas 😅. I own a Seagull pilot horizon, it’s a pleasure to wear. Same quality as an entry level Swiss watch, curiously with one of the best straps I ever had on a watch.
Lobinni makes great and (sometimes just a bit inspired) but stunning dress watches. Merkur is also a bit inspired but have great models!
Good luck if you start investigating in the Chinese watches world, it’s a journey😅
That orange gradient and that purple gradient dial face are pretty nice
Hello Andrew, what do you think about Maen Hudson and their quality and value? Thanks
Wordsmith extraordinaire! Love your content and your delivery, always a pleasurable break to watch your videos!
Thanks for sharing.
The zingers per minute in this video is off the charts!! 😂👏
Love the cut and parry of your répartie
Nice list. The Beaubleu uses the same '3 circles' idea as the Mr Jones 'Colour Venn'.
That first Baltic at 10 minute 40 second mark of this video is a BOOMER of a watch . Best of breed.
Very nice watches!
What you think about Paul Picot? Thanks Greetings from Grenchen
Hi Andrew. I’m Richard and I have an addiction. I love Lorier watches and can’t stop accumulating them. It started with the Neptune diver in black and white 4 years ago, then added a Gemini Nero chronograph last year, and just yesterday, perhaps their best watch to date, a white dial Astra. It’s gorgeous, everyday watch to rival an OP.
Some great watches I was unaware of. The Baltanic Iceberg is great... the Arken would be my grail GMT if the hour hands were the same size so they could be synch'd as one...the BlowBluey has pert 24hour nipples to look at ... and the Underdog with radioactive blancmange dial is incredible... they could all be on my "warchbucket" list if at least 40mm
I've been getting several adverts for Méraud watches recently. Particularly their Bonaire model, which reminds me of timepieces from a couple of more expensive makers.
That purple Benjamin James dial is amazing
Glad Benjamin James is getting some spotlight. Can’t wait for my Scarifour
I really like the Benjamin James watch. Some great designs here for reasonable money. Have you reviewed Marloe watches? Great designs with good prices.
That Benjamin James quartz is sublime!
I do believe that Studio UnderdOg CEO has a bust of Andrew in his office. Or he should have one because the boost you gave them while working for the previous channel, makes them float on orders for a few years in the future. I am one of those who fell in love and bought two of their watches, just because of your description. And another one I discovered and bought, that should be in the next "affordable but cool watches" list is Maen, with the Manhattan 37. A serious banger for the money. And, oh... Atowak. The third coming from your suggestions, the Ettore Drift on my wrist right now . And naturally I do own an MR01 too.
I mean, probably I'm a tad too prone to your soothing voice but I have to admit that once I saw the above mentioned watches, I couldn't agree more with your impressions. Every word, every joke, every vision was simply there, spot on. Never regretted any of this purchases and so... thank you for making me discover the "cheap" fun in collecting watches. Next will probably be the upside down thingy featured on this one...
I really like that Benjamin James design. It took me a while to figure out what it reminded me of - a Mark Carson Kailua. I haven't thought about that watch for a while and now I want one again.
Thank you, glad you like it!
Missing the Echo Neutra Cortina 1956 GMT. Stunning piece.
1:00 I have number 228/300 of the Swordfish Ember 40 shown on the left. It glows like a small nuclear reactor. Zelos truly deserves the first shout out on this video.
Nice I got #50/200 swordfish 40 in emerald SS also their sister company ventus I have #04/400 brass northstar and love them both
Excellent reviews. Very enjoyable. Keep up the good work Sir.
Epic as ever. I know JOMW and many others have trodden the well worn Chinese watch path but I imagine there will be a lot of interest in your opinion of these mostly derivative but often seriously well made watches
Haven't bought a Zelos yet but I REALLY like what I see
Henry Archer watches are fantastic and great bang for buck.
Thank you to both patreon members
really want to see a review on the sealander celest, aventurine looks awesome
I just got an UNDONE Aquadeep. grade II titanium case, double dome sapphire crystal, 500M water resistance. All for under $400US. A lot of watch for the money. I am enjoying it very much.
These are great ... Have you actually handled all of these in person Andrew? These images look like stock images. Just curious.
A video on Aliexpress "homage" watch brands like Pagani Design, Welly Merck, and San Martin that aren't wholly original but also deliver really really really good value for money ($50-$300) would be great (Studio Underdog said they might even be copying an avocado colourway of the watermelon watch that a Chinese brand came up with)
Ive got the swordfish field - I bought it while drunk. I do like it though, most of the time. Sometimes I look at it and think: "yeah - nice". Other times I think : "mmm... bit odd." Solid watch though. Good finishing for the money and original design.
I love my Karlskrona baltic shield. Cheap and ludicrously well made.
Great video. I hadn't seen a few of these before and I really like that Beaubleu.
My first mechanical watch that i bought this year is the Orient "Baby Neptune" RA-AC0K03L10B. I think its a real bargain. Automatic diver, inhouse movement with hacking and handwinding, sapphire crystal, screw down case back, screw down crown at 4, crown guards, seamless date window at 4, pepsi tactile uni-directional bezel, 200m WR, with really amazing lume. I mean really this thing glows. 350€ I think its a real bargain. And an amazing everyday watch. Did end up changing its bracelet tho
Thanks for introducing great-quality lines. I liked some of the designs, but unfortunately, they are all in small sizes. I usually look for 43mm and above.
