He honestly might be worse. He tries to make all of his videos about what he thinks the watch world is supposed to be about (craftsmanship, art, etc.) but if you really pick apart the things he says and his ideas about it all he only cares about how much the watch costs and that's the only value to him. He also seems to judge people's entire personality and worth by how much their watch costs. Dude seems totally wack to me.

I don't mind this guy. There's something about him which i like, i think maybe because he come across genuine. But I wish he'd stop going on about his fucking Explorer.

TGV is ok, I liked him a lot more when he just started his channel, used to review only affordables and did a lot of collaborations (e.g. with Federico). Then he got famous, started falling out with other youtube personalities and in general started behaving more like a snobbish dick. I still watch him from time to time but only if the video is about something I'm really interested on.

On a side note, my favourite watch channel on youtube, by far, is watchfinder: amazing camera work, a voice worth of a documentary channel, and always an interesting story or take on the watch at hand.

Tim's reviews on the Watchbox are also pretty good, but they are just that, a bit dry IMO.

Dude's a cheese ball. He said buying reps is supporting terrorism, yet doesn't see an issue with diamonds.

I bet the stink muffin smells like cheap aftershave.

He probably saw this video and concluded that that's how fake watches are assembled in China. LOL :rofl:

I remember when he got his Sub and kept referring to it as his "Subbie" and "Subsie". What a little tool.

For very well done watch reviews, check out Armand the Watch Guy. One of my favorites on YouTube

Watchfinder is seriously killer but I'm sure you all know that by now. They're pretty much all I use for watch content at this point, the quality never ceases to amaze.

He doesn't seem to know much about watches though. Also he seems to be a Rolex fan boy who can't afford more Rolex watches - at the moment. I'm sure as the channel grows there will be more Rolex watches added to his collection.

Watchfinder is indeed very nice. Nice topics and variety of watches. Tim from Govberg has by far the most watch knowledge but the guy is like a robot thus a little hard for me to watch for more than 3 minutes.

Thoughts on CRM Jewelers? He proves the English don't have the exclusive on watch douchery, especially since transitioning to a lifestyle vlog with his merry band of beards. But the flock of sheeple are building.
Like Mosso he also commits the indoor sunglasses sin, but at least the others feature close-ups of the actual watches in their reviews.
Begs the question why in the hell do I watch any of these damn channels, Watchfinder being the obvious exception?

He is a sqaule fanboy. I have seen a good number of his videos and must say, I didn't hate him in the past but now he is super annoying. especially with his schwartcuff's
