Looking at my first video, I can’t believe I can’t learn to make them look better. So here is my first attempt at a (slightly) edited video. This is about three unusual speedmasters that I wear quite often.

the next one will be more vintage - at some point I should re make EP01.

lockdown keeps us creative

Getting caught up on your videos is on my "to-do" list this weekend! Your knowledge and presentation are what make the video. Aside from the orientation of the fist video, I really felt as if I were sitting across the table from you and we were looking at a watch together. I wouldn't change a thing about it 😀

Another great one, the high res photos overlay really helps.
Unpolished cases video next 😁

Nice one. Very interesting to see which watches you hold dear out of such an incredible collection.

Oddly this reminded me of that scene from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade... if I were asked to pick a favorite from your collection, I'd definitely not have picked any of these, resulting in my very rapid aging and most imminent death... presumably?

"If I had to choose one... what a silly thing to say". Cracked me up! 😁

Very good William. You are quite right in that the quality of the latest film is substantially better. The focus for instance. What have you changed in your setup?

I still can’t bring myself to like the Moon to Mars but yours is the best one out there all right, and which of us wouldn’t have bought one at the price, dials can be swapped after all, just as cases can be coated.

I absolutely adore the '69 with the orange hand. There is a pure honesty about that watch that just nails it for me. Great strap choice as well.

Great video, thank you. Indeed, the '69 with the orange hand is a beauty. It never existed? Indeed… but who cares? 😀

This is my favourite video so far, it's personal and about what you like and as they say every watch has a story.👍

Thanks for sharing.

William, thank you very much again for posting a video!
Always great to watch your videos and learn from them!

(😉 And not to forget the two early YouTube videos from ‚pre gloves‘ times:
Removal and replacement of a bezel from an Omega Speedmaster
How to check the reference and calibre numbers on an Omega Speedmaster.)

Wonderful representation of the special qualities of different Speedmasters!
Your' obvious love and knowledge bleeds through and you have a calm and reverent way of discussion.

While obviously old world, your' English is spoken with a clarity and tone that allows the new world heathen to fully understand and appreciate the nuance and enjoyment of the subject.

You could do this for a living .....but I'm not sure how many Speedmasters a hobby producer could afford.

Extreeeemly well done.

I love the sly wrist speedy photobombing the shots as you move the subjects in and out of screen... BONUS Speedy ACTION!
thanks for the video
