10 Essential Accessories & Tools Every Watch Enthusiast Should Buy + A Sneak Peek At My New Citizen
Today I'm back in the War Room to share 10 things I believe every watch enthusiast should consider owning to compliment their watch collection. No matter if you are a 1-watch person or have an extensive line up of timepieces, you will undoubtedly find something here useful, and the best thing is that most of these items make great gifts too. In this video I also share a sneak peek at one of my latest acquisitions, a stunning and rare yacht timer from Citizen.
1. A spring bar tool. I recommend and use the Bergeon 6767-F:

2. A watch case for storage and transport. I recommend and use Colareb:

3. Watch Straps. For the best selection and quality, check out Holbens:

5. Books. For some great titles to start your own collection check out the following:

- Longitude by Dava Sobel
- A Connoisseur's Guide to Antique Clocks & Watches by Ronald Pearsall
- Swatch: A Guide for Connoisseurs and Collectors by Franck B. Edwards
6. A reference device to check the accuracy of your watches. I use a Casio Pro-Trek PRW-3100Y-1BCR with atomic time keeping via multi-band 6:
