Bruce, in my humble opinion: the level of quality of your videos, showcasing your photographic skills, use of lighting indoors and outdoors, really is among the top 2 or 3 for watch enthusiast content creators on RU-vid. Especially the outdoor shots really give us a good sense of how the watches look in sunlight or just natural light. You, along with Oisin O'Malley, with his extraordinary videos are my favorites to follow and have definitely influenced me in past purchases. It is really not so easy to find videos where the lighting and high resolution are perfect and the watch is shown in so many angles and settings... all at a slow enough pace of filming to be able to enjoy the watch. Great job and look forward to your next video. HI from Berlin!
I really like the Chrono but idk why the bidirectional bezel with the 12 hour markers just rubs me the wrong way. It’s an incredible watch with an incredible movement, but for some reason I can’t get over that bezel. That being said Bruce great cinematography you’re content is really incredible.
The Manhattan's thinness is impressive for a mechanical below $1k. I don't know how you can mess up a Newman Daytona homage, but somehow they did it - the logo on the dial (font+size) and overall proportions seem off
the ultra- thin is cool, but if you delete the seconds hand, you might as well make it quartz. It'd be less expensive, more accurate, and just as thin. The chrono's a beauty!!
Was there much play on the bezel movement? I have the first rendition of their chronograph. One of my criticisms is that the bezel is rather loose. I’m wondering if that was improved upon.
Unfortunate that it's 39mm. Square watches wear significantly larger than round watches. Doing some basic geometry, a 39mm square watch has the same area as a 44mm round watch. So it does not wear anything like a true 39
