    My wife bought me a Cartier Tank for my 40th. It was pretty small on my 7.5” wrist, and I tried to pull it off, but never quite worked. Even she said it was small, so we exchanged it for (surprise) a medium Santos on bracelet. Been wearing it ever since, and we’re both happy. Maybe I should have kept the Tank, but it’s too much money to sit in a drawer.

    My wife bought me a watch for a birthday or Christmas, can’t recall which it was 20+ years ago. It was a quartz, fashion brand, but when I opened it, there was no sign of life. Took it back to the shop, they didn’t have another one, but something similar and I actually preferred it. Anyway, she’s never let me forget how her choice wasn’t good enough. My advice, keep quiet, say you’re saving it for special occasions, and store it away in a drawer.

    I have worn a Rolex Datejust for over 40 years. I take it in the pool I take it in the ocean. it’s never given me a bit of a problem. They’re just great watches as long as you get them serviced when they need it. they are water resistant and pretty much indestructible

    I had it on my wrist in an Omega boutique in London a few months ago, and it does look really nice. The dial material is excellent.
    But at the end of the day it’s still a Speedy. If you already have one, you’re probably not going to buy this just for the dial.

    We're not buying mechanical watches for practicality, stainless or gold. If someone wants practical watches, they should stick to quartz. I have an Omega hesalite Speedy but that white dial with applied indices looks beautiful.

    Partial Miss: The black white color combo won't give as many strap-monster combination options. The original looks good with almost any strap. They could have remedied it by giving it a steel bezel instead of a black one. That said, I'm glad we're getting some variation options.

    39mm is a perfect size. Rolex made a huge mistake with that 41mm sub. They need to bring down the size to 40mm.

    • @KeepingWatchUK
      @KeepingWatchUK 9 місяців тому

      Non-sense. The 41mm actually wears a tiny bit smaller/more streamlined with narrower lugs as opposed to maxi case. I assume you’ve not had either the 40 or 41 submariner on your wrist?

      @@KeepingWatchUKOur boutique can’t keep the maxi case Subs….sells out pretty fast. The 41mm sits around longer. Most Asian wrist size are on the smaller side and majority prefer the 40mm or even the BB58 at 39mm is much more in demand. Just remember, at a point mens common case size were 34mm and very fitting even for larger wrist size.

      ⁠@@Thankyou_3At a point the horse & cart was the main mode of transport. Truth is, smaller watches suit smaller wrists, larger watches larger wrists. Agree, less than 7” 39mm or smaller looks great. Over 7” 39mm or larger looks best. The 41mm sub wears modestly on my 7.2” wrist tbh. And there’s barely a difference between the 41 and 40 Subs imho.

    It’s cool that the Moonwatch still looks like the NASA watches, but the water rating should be booted up to 100 from 50 on modern watches, no reason to keep the WR rating the same, because hesalite makes historical sense but WR too?!🤔😏😊

    Why don’t a lot of your videos actually correspond with the title? Your title is in reference ONLY to the white Speedmaster yet you go off on a tangent. I found myself fast forwarding the video to where you talk about the Speedy which I didn’t find it until roughly 6 minutes in … and even then, you only talked about it for a few seconds. Very odd.

Omega is running that design into the ground. The cool factor the Speedmaster once had is gone. Speedmaster Speedmaster Speedmaster that's all Omega does.
