Spinnaker Fleuss Limited Edition
Spinnaker Fluess watch review:
Explore the Micro Brand Offering Something for Everyone
Fleuss 40 Automatic - 145th Limited Edition
A Neo-Vintage Classic.
In celebration of the 145th anniversary of Henry Fleuss’s groundbreaking rebreather test, this Fleuss Automatic pays tribute to a rich history with a refined 40mm case size. Featuring muted, vintage-inspired colors, these timepieces blend the heritage of dive watch design with modern aesthetics and craftsmanship.
I Think of it as a Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Reduced, but with a uniquely uncommon color palette that sets it apart.

    I got one of these for a ridiculous price, one of the best purchases I have ever made. Immediately removed the bracelet and just put the strap. The colors are amazing. I am a bit confused though, your watch's brushing looks a little bit worse than mine.

    • @Skyler.Santana
      @Skyler.Santana День тому

      Well, now I’m curious as to how much and how. The bracelet wasn’t too, too bad. I agree, the colors are awesome for this lot. Not sure about the difference in the brushing myself. Honestly, for my personal collection, I don’t really care much about that, but as a reviewer, I have to mention everything I catch myself. Which model/colorway did you end up with? And spill the tea on how much you paid. 👀😆

    • @wewwew236
      @wewwew236 День тому

      @Skyler.Santana I got the brown/light blue one. I wrote how much I paid in another comment hahahaha. $210, it was very lucky. The brushing-wise mine looks a bit finer, I am not sure why, maybe the light difference. Hunting for a Fleuss 50 Phantoms now.

    • @Skyler.Santana
      @Skyler.Santana День тому

      Ahh, I think it’s called Cerulean Blue. Nice! $210 was a steal 😵‍💫. Maybe it’s the lighting, or maybe because mine wasn’t numbered-it was a prototype-and they tightened up the brushing after the fact. The Fleuss 50 Phantoms is also a really cool watch. I wish you the best of luck 🤞. If you end up scoring it, send me a wrist shot on WatchCrunch 😉. I appreciate your input 🤝.

    I've got a handful of Spinnaker watches and I love them all. Lots of variety. I've never paid full price, so if the pricing is off putting to you...there are lots of deals and second hand watches available.

      Oh, nice! Thank you for the information! I’m sure this will also be helpful. I agree they do have a nice spread of very interesting timepieces. It’s a brand that feels like “something for everyone.” If you’re on the WatchCrunch app, send me a message on there. I would love to see your collection of them! - Santana

    Nice looking watch! The loose safety lock and sliding strap keepers would be really annoying. The design and color combination are very appealing.

    • @Skyler.Santana
      @Skyler.Santana 3 дні тому

      Thank you Rich! I want to be abundantly clear that I haven’t had any issues with the safety lock failing altogether or even getting caught on anything yet. I simply observed that it felt a bit loose out of the box, but I haven’t encountered any frustrating situations with it so far. However, on the rubber strap, I did experience the second keeper sliding off the adjustment strap at the 6 o’clock position, and that is definitely annoying, to say the least. That said, I absolutely love the design language and colorway of the watch and still feel that, overall, it’s a quality timepiece for the price in my opinion. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts Rich! 🙏

    👍🏾 Skyler, this was a very nice video with a lot of great suggestions for people to glean from. Those who may want to collect like you may embrace most or all of the points you lay out while others may gravitate towards one or two or maybe just a few. 🤔 I think the trap sometimes (in any "hobby" area) is when it begins to get too prescriptive. You know: "you're not a true collector until ..." As an "enthusiast," I love watches and pens and going to shows or community groups and talking about them. But I feel the same way about classic movies, jazz music, and art. In all of them its wonderful not to have to fit in a prescribed mold or accepted pattern to enjoy being an enthusiast. In the end, pursue and purchase the watches you really love and want ... and wear them. 🫡

      I couldn’t have said it better myself, John! I always try my best to have awareness of my beliefs and values as I share them on my channel. I want to remain positive and respectful of opposing views while still having a point to make and a definitive stance-all of which could change over time with more knowledge and experience, of course. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts and look forward to chatting with you in the future.

    This watch looks very similar to my Omega Seamaster Aqua terra which makes me smile every time I put it on my wrist. The question I’d be asking myself repeatedly is do I really need a homage with a sparkly dial especially if I have to pay a fairly high microbrand price of $795 and would it give me the same pleasure and a sufficient incentive to go get myself ‘just one more watch’?

    • @Skyler.Santana
      @Skyler.Santana 12 днів тому

      The watch was purposely built to pay homage to more expensive luxury brands, so I can understand any hesitation to buy one if you already own a piece it heavily resembles. That said, the watch isn’t $795-it costs $499 for the aventurine model, and some models are priced at $450. For what they’ve put into the timepiece, I think it’s well worth it if your collection could benefit from this design language-just my opinion, of course. Thanks for stopping by the channel, my friend!

    • @Skyler.Santana
      @Skyler.Santana 14 днів тому

      I do believe that the removal of the chapter ring is very possible. It should be simply sitting in place and can be removed once the bezel and crystal portion are taken off from the case itself. Namoki offers four different colorways for the chapter ring to choose from, but I don’t think it can be purchased separately. Hope this helps, and thanks for watching! www.namokimods.com/collections/all-cases/products/nmk951-alpine-tool-case-steel-finish?variant=44200562098351

The Omega is my own present/reward. I bought the Garmin on January 2024. I bought the Omega on December 2024. I tend to hide that I wear 2 watches. I wear the Garmin to go to the gym, to go out at nights, and to sleep. The Omega is for day time. I like both.
