I’m so glad you brought the Vacheron releases to the fore. These seem to have been glossed over in favour of more popular brands but I think these are proper stunners! I would agree whole heartedly on these as being best in class! 👌👌
This A. Lange & Söhne Datograph Lumen in white gold is my highlight of the Watches & Wonders 2024. Yes, I'm Swiss but A. Lange & Söhne's craftmanship beats easily all of those (Swiss) "holy trinity" - hands down!
The eternal calendar doesn't need to be reset after 45 mln. years, the moophase is accurate for that time and deviates only 24 hours after 45 mln. years. The calendar is only accurate for 3499 years until the end of the Gregorian Calendar but it calculates for the missing leap years in 2100, 2200, 2300 and 2400 with a wheel that turns once in 400 years. Where other perpetual calendars need to be adjusted every 100 years and that could become rather stressful.

Yeah i did more reading about it after i recorded this video. Amazing watch!
@@Dazulolwarrior I was wrong with the dates Calendar works until 3999 and there’s actually a leap year in 2400. Not that someone misses an appointment because of my post.
@@crastinator_pro Yes, it's easy to remember every hundrets of years that can be divided by 400 without any rest will be a leap year! 1900 wasn't a leap year while 2000 was a leap year as most of us will remember! 😇🤣 In Excel I always calculate with 365.2425 as days in a year!
Your choices are, as always, impeccable. Your videos are a couple of light years away from the "click-baiters". All the VCs? Just beautiful... the green against the gold? AL&S... well, just delicious. The Rolex? This time a real departure. Cartier? Again, stunning. All these watches are complete "pipe dreams" in my case... "You may say, I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one".
VC is the most unique . The crazy part I like it is not very popular like rolex or AP or PP . That's make it special when you wear it . I have the three conography colors . Will add this one.
I agree with everything you said about the Vacheron Overseas. It would be so hard to choose which one to buy but then to decide between the green dial and the blue?!!!! That blue dial is also gorgeous. I think the best blue dial on the market.
Top picks ! My favorites : A.Lange (-out of my league, unfortunately); Vacheron (beautiful) and Rolex 1908 (really not expected twist, but really well done)
Love all these picks…it’s nice to get off the hype path once in a while. I also love the Chopard LUC Qualite Fluerier in steel with silver dial..great looking piece and beautiful finishing
The trouble with perpetual calendar watches is that you have to wear them continuously (like I do with my Rolex GMT Master) or have to remember to wind them regularly in order to keep up with the time.
The ALS Datograph models released were spectacular as was the IWC Eternal Calendar. I was really impressed with those. The new Patek world timer looks great and is what I would look to Patek for over their sport models.
What a breath of fresh air from all the Rolex bombardment....great variety, like you I have a soft spot for classics and you covered all my favorites.👍
Vacheron line were stunning. Loved also Rolex 1908, beautiful guilloche dial. Oisin you missed Jaeger LeCoultre, they released some impressive watches in Duometre line.
Those are all terrific Oisin, enjoyable video. I'm drawn to the Zenith Defy Revival a3648, a fun almost literal reproduction of their 37mm 600m diver released in 1969.
Good job -- these are stunners (as you say). The Rolex 1908 holds it own because of extreme elegant looks & simple case shape. And all these show that green is still in!
For the average Joe I think the real show stopper is the Tudor Black Bay Monochrome METAS in either metal bracelet although I do like the look of the rubber too. ❤
Spot on Oisín! Great highlights list ... they are all amazing, but the tourbillon from Alange just gives me pause and I can't stop staring. Thanks as always for your thoughts!
The IWC releases have really got my mouth watering. The Swiss watch company that has oil in their movements/Cases/Dials was mind blowing (not sure which cause it was a quick clip I saw on Producer Michaels page, sorry). The dial rotated 360 degrees which sounds like a Jacob & Co. but it was nothing like their watches. I should really have done some research before this comment but I’m sure the watch community can help me. Long story short - I’m frothing over those IWCs and it is a brand I’m fairly new to and my love seems to be growing and growing. This second watch company I’m trying to describe was also mind blowing. I like my timeless classics from the 60s/70s/80s, but these two companies I’m mentioning still keep their designs “traditional” looking but with some of the latest innovations in engineering and are a work of art. Appreciate the upload 🇮🇪 ❤
I have to agree about VC. If I had that money/opportunity to buy any of the three o would choose VC. Yes, I know from an investment point of view I may get better ROI from AP or PP, but for me watches are not a monetary investment. I buy them to wear them. So a VC Overseas is my grail. Even in the stainless steel.
Keep up the great work. New VC watches look superb (I own a Chronograph blue dial current model O/S) and it is great. That green dial look amazing. In regard to Rolex - Wonder what the average price of the new releases are - must one of the more expensive new group. As a Rolex fan - there is nothing that makes me ring my AD.
Aside from IWC's absurd eternal calendar, the updates to the Portugieser are super nice and nuanced. Really luxurious, IMO. I really like Zenith's Defy Skyline Chronographs, but I'd still opt for the three hand. But only because I already have a Zenith El Primero Chrono and I waited a long time for a hi-beat three hand movement from them. I was also a fan of Chopard's lovely (LUC) XP, and continue to appreciate the Alpine Eagle. Still waiting for my dream Solarbeat Santos Dumont, but worry about the price it might land at, when that day comes.
Thankfully a review of non Rolex and Tudor. The Overseas and Tortue are beautiful and IWC debuted some beautiful Chrono's, also Laurent Ferrier had some lovely pieces.
Can't wait for the Tudor rant. :) During the Covid, I relied on Tudor because they were the only ones not inflating their watch prices to unreasonable levels.
I've only become aware of the VC Overseas in recent months. Why is it so undermentioned? Maybe the bezel is too polarising? I love it, my next mod watch has a case inspired by this.
Once I pulled the trigger on a Vacheron, I haven't looked back. I now have 3 Overseas, the 3 handed brown dial, the Chrono Panda and the Retrograde Moonphase. Along with my Aquanaut (my only Patek), those watches dominate the majority of my wrist time.
Agree on 1908. It’s refreshing, new, beautiful, vintage flavor. Just hope they will eventually release aluminum version to make it an option for me one day.
Most enjoyable. I melt at the thought of owning a VC. Maybe because they’re out of reach for most people. I feel that out of the Holy Trinity, they’re the least known,but the best. Just my opinion. Love the vid.
You sir are correct. Vacheron is the best of the three, and those are some of the best I’ve ever seen from them. People go nuts for the VC blue, but that green and rose gold combo is what’s at the end of the fucking rainbow.
I think a Patek 5235/50R Regulator would suit you. It's a larger watch and a totally unique and advanced movement in the Patek line up. Although, that's just because I'd love one! 😁
Regarding Rolex it's really feels like they wants "us" to push more into Tudor than buying the Rolex-stuff and like making Rolex even more "exclusive"..

Blasphemy !
Couldn't agree more on the Vacheron Constantin absolutely stunning!
Agreed O ! Those VacheronConstantins are stunning . Well done 👏
That green Vacheron is stunning and gorgeous ❤😊
How about we forget about your channel and just watch Time Teller , or Andrew Morgan, or This Watch That Watch.

I look forward to asking IWC to fix the calendar in the year 3500

(1) VC green, time&date only; (2) AL&S; (3) Rolex 1908. Honorable mention - Rolex RG DD w/grey ochre dial.
The VC is a hard hitting piece. I was going to say silent destroyer but it’s definitely not. Stunner. Great vid as usual Oisin.
No mention of the JLC Duometer Tourbillon?? I think it’s stunning…
VC is the most unique . The crazy part I like it is not very popular like rolex or AP or PP . That's make it special when you wear it . I have the three conography colors . Will add this one.
For around the same money, and both at 39mm....the Rolex 1908 in Platinum , or the JLC ultra thin Perpetual Calendar in steel.....no contest.
I agree with everything you said about the Vacheron Overseas. It would be so hard to choose which one to buy but then to decide between the green dial and the blue?!!!! That blue dial is also gorgeous. I think the best blue dial on the market.
The Lange lumen and the Cartier Tortue mono pusher in white gold are my favourites.
Excellent video, love the VC’s!
As always, another excellent video! Thank you for the coverage of watches and wonders!
Top picks ! My favorites : A.Lange (-out of my league, unfortunately); Vacheron (beautiful) and Rolex 1908 (really not expected twist, but really well done)
Thank you very much! Liked, subscribed and shared. My absolute favorite CZcams channel by far.
PURE CLASS as always..! THANK U
That was a great video....good explanation and great pics of the watches....
Great to see you coming around to Vacheron
Cheers!
Wow, stunning AP you got there. I’ll have to dig out your videos for some AP discussions. Love from Ireland 🇮🇪
Love all these picks…it’s nice to get off the hype path once in a while. I also love the Chopard LUC Qualite Fluerier in steel with silver dial..great looking piece and beautiful finishing
The trouble with perpetual calendar watches is that you have to wear them continuously (like I do with my Rolex GMT Master) or have to remember to wind them regularly in order to keep up with the time.
Best Moonwatch is Christopher Ward Moonglow.
Or their Moonphase which actually uses glass made down the canale from you!!!
The IWC perpetual is off the scale and the Lange is just incredible. Time to re evaluate the so called Holy trinity. Based on what exactly?
Great watches but simply unaffordable for 99%. The Lange is my favourite here. The Vacheron is nice but just an obvious play
The ALS Datograph models released were spectacular as was the IWC Eternal Calendar. I was really impressed with those. The new Patek world timer looks great and is what I would look to Patek for over their sport models.
IWC I like the 4000 year Calendar. Vacheron's stand at Watches & Wonders was very impressive. Oisin you are good at presenting watches.
What a breath of fresh air from all the Rolex bombardment....great variety, like you I have a soft spot for classics and you covered all my favorites.👍
Lange is in a different class!Superior!!
Vacheron line were stunning. Loved also Rolex 1908, beautiful guilloche dial. Oisin you missed Jaeger LeCoultre, they released some impressive watches in Duometre line.
Our taste is very similar. all the watches you showed are up my alley, which I can't say for most other reviewers
Those are all terrific Oisin, enjoyable video. I'm drawn to the Zenith Defy Revival a3648, a fun almost literal reproduction of their 37mm 600m diver released in 1969.

Best commentary on the 2024 new releases.
I do like these watchs over rolex..not sure why...and more the simple dials
those VC's are amazing - best in show for sure
Vacheron Retrograde Moonphase is my favourite. Then the green three hander vacheron. Then 1908 platinum
Love those VC's too! I wonder why that Royal Eagle never got much respect. I always liked it and may get one.
For the average Joe I think the real show stopper is the Tudor Black Bay Monochrome METAS in either metal bracelet although I do like the look of the rubber too. ❤

Brilliant range of watches
Good one Oisin. Thanks -
Good picks...Vacheron is definitely a winner this year
All Glashütte Watches like Lange&Söhne, Glashütte Original or Union Glashütte - easily take a comparison to Rolex Hublot and on
Excellent job on this video!

Finally a truly beautiful Rolex.
Love that IWC.
Never really been a big fan of classic watches but the new 1908 my be the one 👌
Good Vid!
I want that IWC
The IWC full calender complication has the Tag Heuer glass box design it seems.
Thankfully a review of non Rolex and Tudor. The Overseas and Tortue are beautiful and IWC debuted some beautiful Chrono's, also Laurent Ferrier had some lovely pieces.
If I were to buy a Rolex today, it would be the 1908. I think it’s a beautiful piece that would fly under the radar.
Better content than every watch channel who actually went to the show. Keep up the great work!
Can't wait for the Tudor rant. :) During the Covid, I relied on Tudor because they were the only ones not inflating their watch prices to unreasonable levels.
How nice are those Vacheron Constantin watches. Maybe I should trade in multiple Rolex watches to get one of these heavy hitters.
Another good video. Just a point of order, cartier was using the exposed screw design before AP.
All amazing!
love that chrono you have on. The Overseas is a true treasure. I think even Zenith was more interesting in their offering at W&W than Rolex.
I don’t think you use the word colorway like so many other reviewers do and for that I thank you. That Cartier monopusher is beautiful.
Oh man those Overseas!
Please do the Tudor rant 🙏🏻
VC is stunning 😍
Agree, VC for the win this year.
I've only become aware of the VC Overseas in recent months. Why is it so undermentioned? Maybe the bezel is too polarising? I love it, my next mod watch has a case inspired by this.
Missing is the Moser Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton, surely one of the more successful skeletons (along with the AP's).
Once I pulled the trigger on a Vacheron, I haven't looked back. I now have 3 Overseas, the 3 handed brown dial, the Chrono Panda and the Retrograde Moonphase. Along with my Aquanaut (my only Patek), those watches dominate the majority of my wrist time.
I also love AP. What do you think of the discontinued AP Jules watch? Great video
Is there any news from breguet?
love the older Cartier's, elegance personified.
Agree on 1908. It’s refreshing, new, beautiful, vintage flavor. Just hope they will eventually release aluminum version to make it an option for me one day.
Most enjoyable. I melt at the thought of owning a VC. Maybe because they’re out of reach for most people. I feel that out of the Holy Trinity, they’re the least known,but the best.
Just my opinion.
Love the vid.
I miss the Roadster… Preferably the Walnut Full Yellow Gd
You sir are correct. Vacheron is the best of the three, and those are some of the best I’ve ever seen from them. People go nuts for the VC blue, but that green and rose gold combo is what’s at the end of the fucking rainbow.
the new 2024 Rolex 1908 platinum is the best most beautiful dress watch I have ever seen
mirroring the last two guys here...those vacherons really redefine the word grail
The JLC releases were also stunning
Yeah, that 1908 is perfection..
Coming your way in July from California. Would enjoy getting together for a drink and a cigar and talk watches.
Don’t cut your intro music back…..it’s the best part of the whole vid…😂😂😂😂😂 just kidding Y’all!
Mine was VC Traditionelle in green sunburst dial on green strap. Otherwise, Cartier Tank Americane was hot.
If I could run off with just one, it’s the 5980 on the denim.
I think a Patek 5235/50R Regulator would suit you. It's a larger watch and a totally unique and advanced movement in the Patek line up. Although, that's just because I'd love one! 😁
Like the one in the Ireland video?
JLC's Duometer stole the show in my opinion. I was so ready to give up on 2024 after seeing Rolex.
Can you help me out with the Music? Having trouble putting my finger on it....
The Vacheron is a GMT because it has the PM/AM indicator.
Masterpieces
Vacheron Constantin best in show❤❤❤❤
When is Ireland part 2?
Haven’t you been in Geneva ? I think I saw you
Regarding Rolex it's really feels like they wants "us" to push more into Tudor than buying the Rolex-stuff and like making Rolex even more "exclusive"..
I love the 1908
What about the Czapek Promenade Goutte D'eau?
Crazy no one is really talking about the 🔥 Yellow Gold Green Fumé Day Date🔥 best watch this year by far
