How On Earth Does a Ressence Watch Work? 

But consider the result!

It is exactly the opposite. The end result that brings engineering find each solutions

Boeing took that methodology to another level.

Just like EVs , in the case of EVs we must wait a few decades to find out what the new problems are ! Just like ICE CARs they make all citys cleaner and much healthier by removing a city with lawyer of horse manure. Often more than a foot deep full of bugs and flies. In other words an open sewer.

a pleasure to "watch" 😎👌

Yeah it is, but the way they speak is amazingly bad, they can't even pronounce "often" correctly and they don't even use watchmaking terminology, it's just like they were talking about sports or something.

@@tomasinacovell4293 Huh? It's a RU-vid channel for collectors and watch fanciers alike. The terminology they use is appropriate, I believe, for the audience. As for the pronunciation of "often," or any other word, you should know that English is spoken with many different accents and none is permanently authoritative. I'm from the New York City area, I'm almost 75 years old, and I have never had a single problem understanding either of them. Are you sure you're not being just a tad provincial?

Imo it’s a very casual watch and still stand by that opinion however I had one on my wrists in a watch shop in Paris and my god was it a bonkers of a watch. The dial design is crazy, the engineering of it is crazy, everything about the watch is crazy, and I absolutely loved it. I 100% would want one and I hope more people find out about this brand because it defineitly deserves recognition

Maybe he was aquaman

I adore my Ressence too! Real compliment getter.

My heart wishes I had never read your comment, my head thanks you for it and my wallet has already made it's mind against it some time ago.

This is one of my grail watches but your comment is making me rethink it now....

Smart. It's the same reason I won't buy that 1973 Citroen SM with the hydraulics...

@@mitchmitchell9588 My first car was a 1965 Citroen DS21 that my father (a hydraulics engineer) had refurbished. Fantastic car with a fantastic ride with an engine from the 1930s. I would love to have an SM as well, but an Italian engine in a French car, brrrrr.

@@johngalt5205 Your dad was a hydraulics engineer! That may be the coolest job I've ever heard. And he restored Citroens. He is definitely the coolest dad ever. We can only aspire to be that awesome ​I have come so close to pulling the trigger on an SM on more than a few occasions. It's so beautifully engineered and way ahead of its time. But try to find someone who knows how to repair/maintain those hydraulics? In California? There are maybe 3 mechanics qualified to do the work, and they aren't getting any younger. Which is what @barfyman362 is saying. Vintage Citroens, and these watches, deserve and require more care than I am capable (or desirous) of providing.

Exactly why I came to comment. I saw the gears and heard him saw BBS and saw it instantly. Such an amazing little detail buried beneath another thousand amazing details.

Which ONE would you buy ???🤔🤔🤔

I'm so curious, what watches would you pick over this? It has aesthetic is refreshing, its movement is based on an ETA but we can all agree its been taken to the next level and true it complication is date time temperature but its done in a unique way.

If I had 40k to spend on one watch, I'd probably try to get a Vacheron Constantin Overseas, though I've never seen one in person

@@mattmiller237 they are nice looking watches but not particularly unique! The reason i think this is amazing is because it's innovative.

@@sqwale7 if you want unique, you should look at MB&F. They have some crazy pieces but most aren't really my taste

I agree 100%. These are so much better than the regular WatchFinder episodes, by a factor of roughly ten million.

I think you could wear it below -5, but it would get an air bubble. Once you went back inside the air bubble would disappear. Although I think for most people -5 is pretty cold. Bear in mind it’ll also be on your wrist which is at about 27 C

Exactly. It is not a piece that should be left outside on its own on a cold day, but who would do that anyway? If you have the cash flow to comfortably own one of these, you will have other time pieces you would strap on while climbing mountains in sub-zero temperatures. I can’t really think of a reasonable real world scenario where you would still be alive and you would risk having the watch you are wearing cool down that much, even on the face side. Your body heat will conduct through the piece and most likely keep it within working specs in almost any use case. To cool it down that much while being strapped to it you most likely would also have to expose it directly to the elements at a much colder ambient temperature than -5°C for an extended period, and you yourself would likely try to take measures to stop exposing your wrist to them as well, well before the watch face manages to reach the critical temperature. I may be wrong, in my assumptions, but I guess someone will have to either do the simulations or just try wearing it at uncomfortably cool circumstances. I would actually be more concerned about the upper limit, as that could actually be an issue in the summer, even in places with much more sensible summers. Keep in mind how hot a car, especially with dark furniture, can become in the summer. The oil filled face bit is then, just as is the case in winter (which is why I do have to say I am not 100% sure the previous statements hold entirely) will be partially insulated from siphoning heat off onto your wrist by the contained air in the power section of the watch. If I were to guess, it will be more units failing due to overheating than to hypothermia. Cheers

@@DrBovdin You may be right, but I don't know how much the dial side of the watch would be affected by one's body heat, particularly since it's pretty much isolated from the movement by ... a layer of titanium? In any event, I live in Canada. Fortunately I'm in the warm part, but this winter the temperature did go down to -12. Other parts of Canada experience -20 to -30 on a regular basis in winter, so I wouldn't attempt to wear the watch outdoors in those places, regardless of how warmly dressed I was. I lived in those regions for 25 years, and it's not pleasant. 😁

yeah its a tough choice when its minus 15C outside and the drive way needs shoveling .. Do I wear the $400 Hamilton or the $40k Oil Bubble watch .. hmmm ?

KEK Neither ,, you get the maid to do the damn shoveling and wear the OilBubble watch and drink brandy in your hand made leather recliner by the fire :)

What things have you designed?

@@ultimaetsolder I design interventional medical device features, manufacturing processes and test equipment.

“This is a $200000 car with a moped engine…”

@@mitchmitchell9588 🤣

40k now... Wow

I nearly followed through

@@jonathanjones7681 You picking' up what I'm puttin' down?!?!

Yes under oil….. not under water..😉

That's exactly what it is, identical shape. My wife has one, and it feels very like a smooth rounded pebble that you want to skip across a pond. Of course I wouldn't do that with a $40k watch!

@@brianmsahin Yes, and there is very satisfying feeling about holding an object shaped in this way. It's a beautiful work of engineering though $40k is a bit much. I can't see it holding that value for long, and if it had a problem years down the road, I'd say servicing or repair would cost a pretty penny, assuming the company is still in existence.
