We love watches. That's the bottom line for what we do.
Through videos and editorial reviews, we hope to present our selection of watches we find interesting and worthy of promoting. As watch enthusiasts ourselves, we hope to share our sentiments on the watches we discover other than specifications. Perhaps, our thoughts might resonate with you and hopefully, we can play our part in educating and forwarding the culture of watch appreciation.
We insist on original photography and video production because you deserve original content that is not a copy of what you can see from the brand themselves. As fast as we can with our available resources, we seek to provide the latest reviews and news on watches while maintaining an independent stance and integrity of information.
notice how he had to repeat that it was a "stable material"! thats because its NOT! give it a few years and it will start to disolve or crack or any of the things we know that plastics do in time! becasue there are NO oil based plastics that are stable!
Warning!! Do not buy anything from Nivada! I purchased two watches from them, an F77 and Chronomaster, the Chronomaster developed an issue with its chronograph within two weeks. It was sent for warranty repair. Just before I get to the point, their service department is an absolute joke! Good luck getting a response from them! They just ignore your emails! So I’ll cut to the chase……. 1 month later I receive a parcel supposedly with my repaired watch…. It’s an empty Nivada box and no watch inside!!! the case is with PayPal….. Be aware they are fraudulent!
Great review! Thanks for that explanation about going backward 7 hours - I've used similar examples to argue against people who tout the "caller GMT" as the better design. Also: the main problem with "caller GMTs" is the user experience - a GMT watch should be able to adjust time forward AND backward, and the caller GMT moves the GMT hand and date in one direction only; also the date shouldn't be changed between 9pm and 3am on Caller GMTs which is a ridiculous restriction on a GMT watch; plus it's not good for the watch to adjust time backward over midnight because it might break the date.
Would love to see a model in stainless steel or platinum for the Middle East market where this will sell lots of it.. Gold watches are usually shunned over there. The Polo is by far the true integrated bracelet watch. Thank goodness there is no hype around this watch. CHEERS !
The Sinn EZM 13.1 is a diving chronograph (500m!) that can be fully operated underwater for $3560.... Calling this the "only dive chronograph" is disingenuous.
I can't recall hearing such a monumental crock of w**k in a very long time. However, I'm sure the intended market of Miami pornographers and Chechen 'friends of Putin' will love them.
25 years ago when I was a rookie I bought my first dive watch with my first big paycheck. I bought a Subby, and since then I've dabbled in every corner of horology. Citizen,Seiko,Rado,Omega,Sinn,Rolex,Squale and Doxa. In 2018 I switched over to an oil filled DW5600 to complement the DC. Never looked back.
Way too little watch for way too much money. Swiss companies refuse to get the memo that their watches are overpriced - and it's not all down to labour and materials, it's all mark up.
Un esercizio di stile, ingiustificatamente costoso. Un calibro magnifico speso per un concetto che non gli appartiene, praticamente una sorta di cronometro "spacciato" come qualcosa di unico. Peccato che il Track1 non abbia avuto il successo che a mio modesto avviso meritava (ma non in tutte quelle inutili declinazioni), tutto il resto è semplicemente triste. Spero per voi che dei clienti comprino queste realizzazioni, ma se non accadesse di sicuro non me ne stupirei, anzi....
At a glance, it seems (at least to me) less than the sum of its parts. No particularly distinctive qualities despite what it says on the tin - nothing more than value play swiss tourbillon a la Frederique constant
What i would change: - all the fonts and font sizes - options for applied markers and/or unadulterated dial - a new emblematic logo - more vintage-esque elaborate hands set
I don’t see any octo finissimi under 40mm. What model do you mean ? And these carbon golds are actually nice models but they just look good bigger wrists. On a 18cm wrist like mine they don’t look esthetic at all.
I would go to the swimming pool with it and if there is a diving site and I am wearing it then I would dive with it. I usually dive down to 25 metres max.
they weren't selected for GPHG, they entered and payed the 700CHF and filled in the form. there are 6 nominees for each category and they were not nominated for any
2 main reasons : first this is too close to a Rolex and considering 95% of the people on the planet do not know the brand, the best option is to buy a nice Rolex replica to the well known factories. Quality is better than with a Tudor, you can switch original parts from Rolex so with a few thousands you will have a franken Rolex which last all your life if properly maintained!!
I have not bought the Tudor GMT as it is too thick for my taste. This watch is 14.6mm thick, while a Rolex GMT is only 12mm thick. So the Tudor is 2.6mm thicker. Is this thickness a deal breaker? My highest recommendation is to go and test it at an authorized Tudor dealer and put it on your wrist and then decide. I know the Rolex is quite more expensive by $6,325, but being comfortable wearing a watch is very important. Just for comparison that I just did today the Tudor Black Bay GMT (model M79830RB-0001) lists for $4,375. The Rolex GMT II with similar looking Oyster bracelet in Oystersteel lists for $10,700, with the Jubilee bracelet it lists for $10,900.
Excellent review. I recently received a Tudor BBGMT as a gift. I am blown away by the functionality, beauty, quality and robustness in this GMT watch for what it costs! The value is undeniable. I am at an age now where I really no longer care what anyone thinks of me or my possessions. I adhere to the idea that if I'm wearing something, it is cool by default and it becomes cool if it wasn't before. I'm wearing this watch every day and I have to force myself to put on a different watch for formal occassions.
The non Tegimented version still has a Tegimented bezel. There really is no reason to buy a Tegimented U50 if you’re wearing it on a rubber strap. I understand why to buy it but reality is there’s very limited benefit for the additional $500. And I hate to say it. If you ever sell pre owned I’m pretty sure the non T version sells easier and retains more of its original value. I would much rather spend $310 on the additional colored strap with extra buckle from Sinn.
The ONLY thing regimented on the non T version is the bezel (at least per the US distributors description). Why wouldn’t you want a scratch resistant regimented case? That’s only available on the fully regimented model.
@@CorkKNIFE because it’s rare that the case is the part of the watch that makes contact with anything once on your wrist. The difference in price doesn’t add up to the value.
@@TheCdM1981 Noted, but your post made it sound as if only the bracelet was tegimented so there was no added value to the paying for the full tegiment treatment when wearing on a band. Most scratches are on the bracelet clasp, bezel or case. I don't understand getting a model that is known for its tegiment treatment and cheapening out at the last moment to "save" a few hundred bucks. Also note people might wear it on a band WITH the tegimented clasp, which again is one of the highest wear areas and is only available on the full tegiment watch.
Agreed on the regimented version. It’s a big reason to go with Sinn in general over other watches. My u50 is a little older and still looks 100% new. It’s amazing.
So niiiice design,better than a lot who cost 200000$...looks incredible,thanks for make know this incredible brand...only regret the price ,too much for me
