Who are the best of the best YouTubers for luxury watches?

On the same level as Jeremy Fragrance for perfumes.

In my opinions, Watches TV and Revolution are the best and up with the most diverse content

Chrono24 and Watchbox are also stepping up their game

Not Hodinkee. Unless you're getting out of a time machine and it's ten years ago.

Recently discovered Watches TV, from the "young guns dinner party" thread here on TRF. Really love their focus on independents. Revolution as well.

Tim Mosso review is good for trying to see if a watch may fit your wrist since he has a smallish wrist and his video always have good wrist shots. So I use his 16cm wrist to "scale" to my 18cm to gauge if the watch will fit. Just ignore his comments like "This watch will easily fit a 14cm wrist" since probably everything other than a Deepsea Challenge would fit a 14cm wrist for him.

Always thought the same...the watch is too big or at least borderline big on his wrist and boom he comes with 14cm comment

I also use always Tim for size reference, but can't understand with all the money behind them for such a low quality production...

And speaking of production Hafiz and YouareTerrific are pretty good... and with Hafiz you see the watch on the wrist from other perspective rather than from 10 inches from camera... Alexwatches is ok too...

Do watch Watchbox's reviews before you pull trigger on watches. Those watches that Tim reviewed are actual watches sold and not perfect examples of watches we see in promotional/marketing videos. I have seen anglage of certain watches that are supposed to have sharp inward angles (from photos and marketing materials) but they are slightly curved in metal. However, please note WB sells watches.

I also watch Swiss Watch Gang, Revolution Watch and Watches TV for their reporting of brands' updates and interviews with manufacturers/CEO/founders. Please also note Revolution Watch sells watches.

TheWatchGuys sometimes has great contents and I'm always intrigued with Damian's new watches. He is a proper watch and car enthusiast.

TickTocking has a great coverage on independent brands but Steve doesn't update his channel regularly. Please note he sells watches.

The Armoury has some nice watches but he has recently sold almost all his watches in auction. Mark primarily sells clothing but he also lists Nomos in his website too. Generally I see him as one who has exquisite taste in watches.

I’m glad you mentioned TickTocking. I really like Steve’s videos but I agree he definitely doesn’t post often enough.

I feel like Steve has just stopped updating anymore as he was quite active before. I do like his videos as they are full of very useful information on many independent brands.

I know he’s not everyone’s cup of tea but I like Oisin O’Marley. Been a bit of controversy involved with some watch deals and he said / she said but overall I just enjoy watching him. He is based in Venice and his production / filming and use of the City in his videos is excellent.

I’ve also really got into the band he was in MrNorth, their first album Lifesize is blasting through my speakers most weeks now stored on my Apple Music favourites.

I think it’s very funny that no one has mentioned Christian and Michael from Theo & Harris. I know it’s not nice to root against someone but it’s nice to see I’m not alone in not being a fan.

If you’re after serious watch talk then I can thoroughly recommend the ‘Swis & Jon Show’.

I actually used to really like them, and I think Michael comes across as a nice personable guy. But recently Christian just comes off as really snobby and just not that down to earth or likeable, so my interest in their videos have started to dwindle.

I like Adrian Barker and his About Effing Time Collaboration with Time and tide and George Bamford,

Evan (I think) from You're Terrific is absolutely awesome. Love his sense of humour

Watch Advisor and Watchbox if I just want stats about a watch

Wristwatch revival is amazing viewing

don't find their hour long rants to be particularly interesting. And all they talk about the same old hyped pieces

I still watch their videos on occasion but find it difficult to get through the entire thing. They need to bring back Anna

I subscribe some channels like WatchArtSci, Watchbox (Tim M), Federico and usual suspects mentioned above. Not mentioned above that I also watch are IDGuy (not necessarily only luxury but good analytical reviews) and Watch Eric (flamboyant Miami theme but good information sometimes).
