Let’s take a journey, checking our my weirdest and strangest watches! I’ve always enjoyed watches that either tell time in a non-conventional way, or have a crazy movement. . . or, are just plain outrageous. I’ve selected a bunch from my personal collection that we can explore together. Hope you enjoy the strange-ness!

Mark I like your videos, but these thumbnails man… If I didn't already know you made quality content, there's no way I would click on these. Maybe I'm in the minority though…
You need a Sriracha watch😄
Very cool. I especially like the Orient. Still about 30 more “traditional” watches I want to get before I venture out to more unique dials. Maybe once I have a dresser full of watches…🤔
Orient should bring that model back, and also its old Day Date homage. They did a lot of cool models back in the day and now they do boring oversized tool watches and Bambinos
The Android Watch is really nice 👍🏿 😊.
Fascinating collection! It looks like a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing, Marc.
Hey guys, do you why old Bulova Acutrons hum?
I love that GeoChron! The fact that it shows a date-correct day-night overlay, and it shows where the sun is directly up/over (in an analemma)
Great collection. Thanks. 💪
I love your collection of unusual watches. I love the creative thinking.
I appreciate what you are doing, mate but… this is ridiculous 🤦
You look like mental health hospital patient wearing two watches.
They should shrink that wall map world clock into a watch dial.
I'm partial to the backward watches. You know how you look at your watch and then 10 seconds later someone says "What time is it?" and then you realize you have no idea and have to look at your wrist again? Not with the backward watch. The one-handers are cool too – it's odd that MeisterSinger dominates that segment when quartz is probably the more practical approach. There's a company that does "Decimal Time" watches (Used briefly after the French Revolution). It's kind of cheating though, since you just use a GMT hand and slap a different dial on it.
Fun video Marc.
I always forget Orient has made some wild watches in spite of being a very normal watch brand
Hello Mark! Just ordered a bracelet from you and looking forward to it!
fifty phantoms reminds me of super mario. so cool.
Your collection is such an inspiration to me. I've seen some of these in the past and I love how you avoid flipping. Each one is so cool, so unusual and shows how you can have fun with time.
Ah, the wonderful weird whimsical world of whacky watches where whoever watches will be wowed with wonder. 😳
Thanks Marc. 🙏🏼
I don’t have any super weird watches in my collection, but I would love to get a Xeric Invertor. The most obscure watch I have is a NakedWatch Maxwell, made in the early 2000’s. It has a skeleton movement with day, date and 24 hour indicators in chronograph style subdials. I often see the same movement used in more modern watches.
How does the sriratcha clock work?
The Best Clock, was the Glock!
That made King Charles, wet his Frock!
😂
Streamer, Your Logo is pointing to 4:20.
I have a Ballast Trafalgar, you set the date & time by rotating the bezel not the crown.
That GeoChron and Orient are crazy good, but why do you have a bottle of ketchup on the wall is beyond me.
Anything from Mr jones? Possibly more like art than weird ways to tell time but very creative and well done watches nonetheless
Fun stuff! Thanks!
I love the Atmos click it's so nerdy cool.😎
mark you like blue. you need the alkin model 3 blue dial
Marc we need a Cartier Santos homage. 38mm, maybe some fun dial colors (gunmetal, burgundy, turquoise) and 150m water resistance!
Like the last watch. Best of both worlds.
I always dream to have a analog display watch:
bright, long lasting lume, easy to read hands on the hour/minute markers, automatic winding module but also can solar charge the watch battery, 100-200m water resistant and has quick button and tilt to light up the dial (Timex Indiglo). Of course comes with day-date complications with option to syn via GPS signal as not everyone is stay within the radius of radio signal. Hmm.. maybe add in alarm with options of sound and flashing light, also strong vibration alarm.
My thought process:
Why button to lit up the dial?
Easy to read for normal eyesight folks as well as the aging eyes of those 40's and above, regardless in broad daylight or waking up in the middle of the night, or miners working inside the cave, SF in a night mission. 😅
Why solar + automatic winding (Seiko kinetic)?
For those eldery or people with some movement restriction issues that cannot move the wrist a lot to wind it, yet wants to enjoy wearing a mechanical (partly) watch with easy to read analog hands.
Why vibration alram?
Think of in a noisy environment or need notification without alerting the rest (SF in operation, inside a meeting room, poor hearing).
Too much, already such a watch in existence in the market? 😁
I never really see anything about Gevril or GV2 are they any good?
I dont think it's weird at all .
Its weird to me 90% or so of watchs are cookie cutter clones of each other and people by these watchs on mass . .😊
That Hamilton is super cool .
Dear marc, you don't seems to read thé comment !!!! where's my shout out? Liké Teddy, Nico, CRM and many other did!!!!! Please do so as your #1 french parisian Guy…. Frédéric
You are right, weird and ugly pièces as hell..
Mark! When is the purple Northport coming back in stock? Been checking every other day for a month. I want an Islander and a purple watch in my collection. 😅
I love the accutron. I have watches from Tokyo flash. Their designs are very odd but cool.
That orient is super neat…never seen anything like that before best of both worlds, beat concept. Thanks for sharing some of your collection…cheers buddy!
