The Mad Watch Collector: Best Watches, Biggest Mistakes & Hot Takes | Ep.8

This week on Wristwatch Weekly we're joined by one of the biggest personalities in the watch community, Russ from The Mad Watch Collector.

We discuss how Russ got started on YouTube, the watches that shaped his collection, why he changed his mind about titanium watches, the rise of microbrands, watch collecting mistakes, content creation, and some seriously controversial watch opinions.

We also dive into:

• Why Russ isn't a fan of the Omega Seamaster
• His thoughts on the Tissot PRX
• The most underrated watch brands today
• Whether microbrands are closing the gap on Swiss brands
• The best watches under £500 and £1,000
• His dream watch
• Advice for new collectors entering the hobby

Plus our usual What's On The Wrist segment featuring Seiko, Omega and Vario.

A huge thank you to Russ for joining us.
