Guys, I love this show! However, I would like to have different thumbnails or tittles to differentiate the show from the other videos

My Great grandfather (mothers side) actually helped designed the ring pull mechanism you find on all shoe polish tins

Regarding the "key-less Spam container", the ring pull was invented by Ermal Fraze, in 1963, in Dayton, Ohio. The idea for the ring pull came about while Ermal Cleon Fraze was having a picnic and couldn’t open his beer can after forgetting his can opener. I believe that all subsequent ring pull opening containers were inspired by the design of Mr. Emal Fraze. Fred

Actually that robot warrior watch holder looked awesome.

I looked it up: Taurus Robot Watch Stand Holder ... $199.00

Give the editor a raise!

The JLC skeleton minute repeater you showed a couple of years ago was very loud, very clear, and nicely sonorous - and a fraction of the cost of this Patek. Oddly, it used the crystal as a "speaker" which is where the Patek got the idea?!

Love this format as much as the original. You guys working together, for one, have nudged several discussions toward the extremes of what most people regard as 'affordable.' Items between $200 - $1,500. Which offers appreciation of a watch’s qualities that might be overlook in lieu of being thought of as merely cheap.

Thank You for doing these.

If I weren't already subbed, that Hall and Oates cameo would've absolutely clinched it.

Hilarious- thanks guys, loved the chat. Awesome format, would be great to chat over a pint in the pub I'm sure!

A very British way of poking fun at one of the world’s best watch makers without being disrespectful! Entertaining and informative, keep them coming guys!
