Thanks to Wise for gifting the watch to the channel:
wisetimepiece.com/collections...
Last year Wise Watches fully impressed me with their Admascus diver. Complete with a 904L steel
and a ton of lume. Now they are back, but this time it's with a Damascus steel sports watch. It's an interesting shift for a fascinating watch. So check out this intriguing 39mm, which strikes a great balance between cool and attractive..
Straps Used:
Harris Tweed Strap from Vario
Blue Hybrid strap from Barton

@dazzlerjohnwatchman8215 Год назад

Shane as usual a balanced and thoughtful review. Damascus steel i have owned in the form of a blade on a pocket knife. The unique character of the steel provides a visual delight for the owner. On this watch it looks awesome and will really catch the sunlight in different ways dependent on time of day. The movement is fine, reliable and easy to adjust. I agree I have never seen a metal bracelet of Damascus steel. The brown calf is the right choice on a sports watch I think. Cant wait to see this watch after a few months of wear.

Great review and well articulated. I just bought this watch yesterday (silver dial, blue sec hand version). I think for $650, you are getting something unique, with excellent quality that stands out. I am pleased to have this in my watch collection.

Wow, Damascus Steel, I thought I was about to see a review of high-end cutlery from Japan! Still a very nice looking watch and probably worth the cost. I think the case will always draw more attention than the dial on this watch.

@watchchimp3102 Год назад

I got the silver dial with the fauxtina, and I honestly think it's my favorite watch so far this year under $1,500. I can't actually pick out anything wrong with the actual watch. The size is great, the finishing is great, the customer service was top notch! My only criticisms at all is that the box(es) are huge! Beautiful and well done, but massive! The other thing would be the alternate strap. Mine came with a plain black leather, and it's an OK strap. But this being a sport watch, I think a rubber strap of some sort would have been more appropriate. Indeed, I've had a hard time not putting this on almost every day since I got it! ❤❤❤

@RelativeTime Год назад

That's a great looking one too. I usually don't like the Faux lume, but looks good with the silver dial. I'd love it if they came out with a fitted rubber strap. That would be perfect.

@watchchimp3102 Год назад

@@RelativeTime Surprisingly, the faux lume is pretty good. Doesn't fade nearly as quickly as you'd expect.

@paulhiggins8774 Год назад

I wasn’t quite sure if i liked it or not until you showed it with the blue canvas strap then it totally transformed the watch. Bit pricey but that’s what you pay for a good quality Damascus steel with high definition Great review Shane as always 👍

Dude, did you just drop a Zoolander reference on us? Kudos. re: the Damascus bracelet. I wonder how it would look and how easy/practical it would be to just do a Damascus center link? Wise have really upped their game since the Hitman series.

@RelativeTime Год назад

Yeah it was. 😎 A center link would be a good idea, give it mostly a normal look but would look at home with the watch.

@chrisallan4591 Год назад

Damascus has been a popular option in handguns, knives and jewelry for years, so I'm glad to see it making it's way into wristwatches. If you look at the 1 of 1 Cabot Arms matched set of 1911 handguns, made entirely of meteorite, this might be an indication of a future direction for - albeit limited and expensive - watches.

@RelativeTime Год назад

They made a meteorite 1911? Wow, I got to check that out.

@brinx8634 Год назад

Good review Shane, and in the end, I have mixed feelings about the watch. I feel I've seen the dial before seiko/rolex/et al.....many times. I like the rounded case with the organic pattern seemingly woven into it, but those straight edged indices and hands are boring and incongruous.

@adk7962 Год назад

You hit it on the head. It’s a beautiful watch, and I think Damascus is cool, but I personally wouldn’t spend the extra on it.

@blackwood3243 Год назад

I'm very surprised that I haven't seen any other Watch brand use a Damascus steel case.

@RussKnize Год назад

I'd take that dial with the 904L case in a heartbeat.

@RelativeTime Год назад

It looks like they have a 904L version in gold, and from the sound of it there may be regular steel in the works.

@lukasz_zegarkowy Год назад

Do you think that damascus steel may be same hype like tiffany blue dials or bronze cases? PS. What is this blue strap seen at 11:12 of your video?

@RelativeTime Год назад

I think it’s harder and more expensive got make, so I don’t think it will be quite as big a fad. I think that’s a Barton hybrid strap. Nylon on top, silicone on the bottom. Awesome strap. Highly recommended if you want something as comfortable as a silicone strap but looks a little nicer.

@joeskeptical4762 Год назад

*Not attractive to my eye, but I can appreciate how other people might like the unique, even unusual look of the case. I admire the manufacturer's boldness, even if not to my taste.*

@bigwilliearmitage Год назад

I wasn't interested in their diver because it's high polish on the softer 904 SS. That's a watch that will look great "in the showroom", but will accentuate scratches and swirls very quickly. This is a very unique piece, but very polarizing too. Either you like it or your don't. The quality seems top-notch.

@RelativeTime Год назад

That is a concern with 904L. I wonder if anyone has ever put a scratch resistant coating over polished 904L? Maybe that would help.

@bigwilliearmitage Год назад

@@RelativeTime I would expect that coating from Rolex or Ball, but I don't believe either of these pricey 904 purveyors does so. IMHO, 904L is a bit of a gimmick. Not sure most would notice the difference in appearance, and the increased corrosion resistance claim is a solution in search of a problem.

@bobbailey6398 Год назад

It’s a pretty watch - almost despite the Damascus effect. Are you sure it’s real Damascus? I’m far from an expert but that looked more etched than real layered Damascus. I know that effect is very often faked on knives. Either way it’s pretty striking. I like that it’s different and kind of funky. The plane Jane steel version you showed looked awesome. (I’m pretty plane Jane).

@RelativeTime Год назад

Well as some have pointed out, Damascus steel doesn't officially exist anymore.. or rather the technique to make it has been lost to history. So this is whatever the modern equivalent is, using whatever technique Smiths have created to try and recreate it. Not sure of the specifics but Wise mentioned the case is made with a combination of 304L and 316L stainless.

@dparis2172 Год назад

Wise, not Weiss? Okay. 🤔 Case details are camouflaged by the Damascus pattern. I think they would have been better off with a slab style case (a la Tudor Ranger). Should have put a Damascus rotor on the movement at least, for that price.

@watchalot919 Год назад

That's a lovely watch, but a tad expensive for a watch that movement and no bracelet. $500 would be about right

@shanedevoria2050 Год назад

While I think it is an attractive watch, it is a pity that a company like Wise would use the marketing ploy of calling it Damascus Steel. Most everyone one knows that which was known as Damascus Steel no longer exists. A better and more accurate term would be "Damascus Style." Or even an homage to the lost this art of making steel.

@mikep5478 Год назад

Thanks for the review. I like the watch and the MIYOTA movement choice. I'll take a Miyota 9000 24/7 over the problematic Sellita SW200 with the "helicopter effect rotor. I've had several SW200 crap out on me with the same problem. Instead of fixing the SW200 issues they added the SW300. The SW300 is fine, but so many brands using the SW200 the issue should be fixed. I was told from a watch maker they build them so fast to fill orders they don't lubricate them correctly. Add that to one or two bad parts design = RPITA. The linked video talks about the issue. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5OLhwgD1fBo.html&ab_channel=SwissWatchCompany

@wuyeah-kx8es 10 месяцев назад

I love this almost every detail but they have failed me on logo. They got this beautiful, tasteful Thailand heritage looking W logo but they have decided to use it on crown and rotor but not on the most important, dial. Instead, they use the most boring looking typeface WISE for me that decision is…unwise. They should of just use the W logo at 12 to replace WISE would of really make it a home run for me. Plus I also wish they offer burgundy color dial with Damascus case finish then I’ll push the impulsive buy it button.
