My timepieces presented to CWC, Watch-U-Seek, and for all enthusiasts.
Often demonstrating watches I have for sale but also presenting other videos to highlight unique watches in my collection that you probably would never otherwise see or other products that I feel need greater representation.
I got one of these and it went straight into the bottom drawer. Cheap leather strap, the second hand wasn't aligned properly, lume was horrible as per this video and the date windows aren't sized correctly. Overall it's a cheap watch and that's what you get, a cheap watch. Even the V2 of this watch doesn't change the fact that this is a boring watch that I should have decided against from the beginning. Can't return it and can't sell it because no one wants it. Waste of money.
Great value for a tough, elegant watch. I actually put mine on a Barton’s Elite silicone strap and swapped out the DLC buckle too - it wears and look great!!
Sorry about that, replacement mic has arrived for all future content. Not sure when V2 will go into production but the HZ.02 and .03 are said to be on their way, so hold your breath for those as hopefully its not too much longer to wait!
Molto bello,prima di acquistarlo mi servirebbe un feedback di qualcuno che lo possiede,e mi conferma che l’ossidazione che si formerà con il tempo sia di facile pulizia.
L'ho comprato dopo che era stato usato intensamente e senza pulizia per un paio d'anni e Cape Cod l'ha ripulito senza problemi. Ora il Black Bay Bronze è l'esatto opposto, un vero dolore da ripristinare e finisce comunque per diventare nero molto rapidamente. // I bought it after it had been used hard and without cleaning for a couple years and cape cod cleaned it right up without issue. Now the Black Bay Bronze is the exact opposite, an absolute pain to restore and still ended up turning black very quickly.
Alas, only the burgundy models remain however the HZ.02 and 03 are in the design phase apparently and based on popularity I suspect we will see a edition 2 release of the blue and green models, though said burgundy version sounds like it will not be coming back.
It really is and unfortunately I sold out of and gifted all my Constellations and am actually out of Omega models entirely now lol the 850x cal generation models should only run around US$3-4k and lately the secondary market for them has been inflated by Swatch price bumps / potential stock buy backs.
Great vintage piece of history, especially given the short model run. This one has long since moved to another forever home and is being very well well loved by its new family haha
I still have my gen 2 Nereide with the Swiss Made Seagul cal along with the first Rendentore Burano. Unfortunately since I just do this all for fun recording audio just often isn't in the cards. In a few years I may come back and record audio over the video footage.
@@Milgauss1349 That would be great. I still saw few new watches - Swiss Made with Swiss Calibers (STP, Landeron or SW300) for sale. I thinking to get GMT to match my Ardesia. Best Regards!
Great question, and it really depends on the buyer. My feeling is that it's targeted towards a audience other than watch enthusiasts so for that person I suspect that yes it is worthwhile; however, regardless of whether it's for someone looking for art on the wrist or the horologlogically inclined, I would argue that a quartz movement is the far better angle. For the former, the simplicity of quartz is king and for the latter down line servicing of the jump hour seagull means ordering a replacement movement for like 25% the cost of the original purchase price. I'd guess that the everyday consumer will consume it until it dies and then some will throw it out, others just wear it as a fashion piece, and others just loose it in a box. The problem with the quartz version unfortunately is that they're more fashion than function versus the automatic jump hour versions. So I would conclude by answering your question with ‘it depends.’ 😁
De acord, am cumpărat două oțel și tonul auriu ușor folosit pentru 750 USD, dar sunt foarte clare pentru mine și nu au caracter, așa că le-am mutat foarte repede. Acum, cei mai noi Citizen Tsuyosa sunt șocant, cu adevărat distractiv, cu mai multă atenție la detalii, iar prețurile pentru ei pe piața gri sunt în jur de 300 USD, așa că nu sunt nebun pentru un miyota cal de bază, ci pentru un ceas de zi cu brățară integrat foarte bine. Intenționez să fac un videoclip pe cel pe care tocmai l-am cumpărat, dar trebuie să găsesc timp să-l fac! // Agreed, I bought two steel and the gold tone lightly used for US$750 but they're just really plain to me and lacked character so I moved them all along very quickly. Now the newest Citizen Tsuyosa's are shocking really fun with more attention to detail and the prices for them on the grey market trade are around US$300 so not crazy for a basic miyota cal but a very good looking integrated bracelet daily watch. I intend to do a video on the one I just bought but have to find the time to do it!
Tissot prx is very nice..too expensive.and more if she have real gold,the prx in steel with the real gold bezel is too expfensive.2000$ for perhaps 3gr of gold...ridiculous no?
it fits smaller than a 40mm watch because of the depth of the piece. I own a ballon bleu de cartier and thats 42mm but because its domed it feels like I'm wearing a 38mm watch. The chopard is 8mm and on the wrist they've got the feeling perfect!
Lug to lug on the Quattro took a while for me to get into as it's 51.5mm and I prefer a max 50mm lug to lug. As for what is and isn't dress watch characteristics, size is subjective to the wrist and traditionally 36mm is dress watch sizing so live free and wear what you want and what fits your best.
You are absolutely right about the endlinks and the quality control on this part is lousy and the tolerances are lousy. Some are very good, some aren’t. The gaps are so big you can fit an index card thru them. You think after 8 years, Omega would have ironed out this problem. The endlink should be flush with the case such where you can barely see the gap. I hammered my OB and got replacement endlinks and they look splendid. Other than that, I find it more aesthetically pleasing than the DJ so long as you get one with good fit and finish. 36 is too small, 41 too big. the GM just right.
Great review. Question the gray strap, is it Omega OEM? I have this model and am on the hunt for grey strap as well. Do you have a model number? Was event considering the blue/grey.
Alas it was unfortunately an Etsy special, however for what it was I'd say it was a solid 75-80% solution and I wore it regularly without every feeling like I was missing out on the equivalent OEM experience. As for the colours, the grey, like with clothing, works with everything and would high suggest you at the very least check out the grey strap before committing one way or the other.
That's the ugliest bronze alloy I've ever seen. I cannot fathom the thought process of using a different bronze than the one they used in the 43mm version.
My least favourite bronze alloy that I have handled. The aluminum rapidly patinas black and the alloy bracelet just has a bit of a tin feel to it versus a solid high quality steel bracelet. It was cool to try but just not my thing, though for those who love living with patina then it's more likely a winner. Also the lume SUCKED worse than the 925 which was pretty bad as well.
They look cool. Would love to see that dial and insert on steel models, albeit with silver hands, markers, and printing. I doubt I will ever purchase a bronze watch, though.
SAME, even just the 925 which was just awesome to own since it was like having a PM diver at a fraction of the cost, IMO. This said Tudor's BB58 lume is terrible and the appliqué numbers were worse than the plots.
THANKS! I hope to do another more detailed video of the Quattro but I still have to finish my LUC Pro One GMT Cadence in-depth so its a long time to go!
Thanks for your video, just made a small tuns order :-) , I would be interested in some of the competitors, could you name some of those? Greets from munich!
