10 Watch Brands I STOPPED Buying

Author: Andrew Morgan May 6, 2026 Duration: 23:26

It’s true, I got a bit trigger happy buying watches last year, and I’ve learnt a lot from it. Maybe you did the same, and you’re feeling the post-purchase regret. So allow me to gather together what I’ve learnt to help you recognise the brands you shouldn’t be buying from now on.

Andrew Morgan, the original creator behind the Watchfinder YouTube channel and known online as "The Talking Hands," now brings his distinctive perspective to audio. Andrew Morgan Watches (For Your Ears Only) is the companion podcast for anyone who lives and breathes horology. Forget dry technical specs presented without personality; here, you get Andrew's unfiltered, often humorous take on everything from deep-dive reviews and expert panel reactions to curated top ten lists and industry commentary. He dissects the triumphs and the missteps across the watch world, whether the focus is on Swiss precision, German engineering, or Japanese innovation. The conversation is layered with inside jokes and memes that true enthusiasts will appreciate, creating a sense of community for those in the know. This isn't a narrated catalog-it's a curated audio experience built on decades of hands-on expertise. Tune in for a blend of serious analysis and lighthearted discussion that captures the passion, the craftsmanship, and the occasional absurdity of watch culture. Each episode of this podcast feels like pulling up a chair with a deeply knowledgeable friend who can explain why a particular movement matters just as easily as he can roast a poorly conceived design. If you’ve ever found yourself lost in the details of a dial or debating the merits of a manufacturer’s latest release, you’ll find a natural home here.
