It could be worse but I think it depends on what you've said. Thanks for you long reply though 😃

commented on YouTubers watches? Worth the Punt?? ·

Sorry yes my comment was more generally about him rather than any watches he's been involved with. I notice TGV has just uploaded a new video which is quite Clickbaity, claiming a hand in designing watches behind the scenes. So far he hasn't said what they are though so not sure what to make of this...

He disappeared from YouTube for 2 to 3 months at the end of 2018/beginning of 2019 & when he came back said he had been looking after a sick relative. What had allegedly actually happened is that he had made a couple of pretty good videos about the history of Seiko which quickly disappeared from YouTube. The reason being that he had allegedly used copyrighted material in these videos & the owner of the material complained to YouTube about it & he got 2 copyright strikes against him. Below is the video he made when he returned, from memory he makes a vague reference to a YouTube issue but doesn't go into any detail.

Personally if I really liked a watch sold by a YouTuber I'd probably buy it, although I wouldn't buy a YouTuber Colab with an existing watch. So far I'm not convinced they make the best designers though, most are formulaic box ticking exercises
