You the only one giving S and sohne love on UA-cam. Obviously integrated bracelet cant expect too much movement. These higher price watches they offer they stepped their game
What a great review for an integrated bracelet watch. You’re the only I’ve seen measure the endlink to endlink and the articulation length inside the bracelet for an integrated-style watch. I’ve had so much trouble asking other reviewers and brands to measure those dimensions whenever I buy an integrated bracelet watch. Great review overall and I hope you do well on your next videos! Cheers mate!
First of all, thanks for the feedback and support, I really appreciate it! I am glad that the measurements provided you value and I will keep doing that for my future reviews of watches w integrated bracelets. I get fitment related questions the most when it comes to these kinds of watches, and rightly so, so I did put in effort to figure out a way to make it clear for most people. Enjoy 2024 buddy! 🎉
I enjoyed your review of this watch so much that I’ve got two of them in my cart. I just can’t decide which color dial I want….lol Thanks for the fantastic review! Keep them up! 👍🏼
Thanks for this review. I saw some of your posts on Reddit, so I was looking forward to your video review. Nice watch. I was kind of torn on the colors and debated on this one. I'm definitely not a fan of this color when translated to real life, but they do have a lot of choices available. It appears to be a good size for even a female wrist, so I think I'm definitely going to order this one (merlot color, though).
My pleasure! And thanks for your support, check this short out, it shows all the dials by themselves, might give you an idea of how they will look in real life before you decide on your color: ua-cam.com/users/shortsy0gUESPIUDw I hope you enjoy the watch and have a great 2024!
You’re my new favourite watch UA-camr. Glad I subbed the other week. If I get this watch it any other in the future it will be through your affiliate links.
Really heartwarming to hear that from you buddy! If you got any feedback, both positive and negative I am here for it, and if there is something you ever wonder about any of the watches that I have in my possession, just send me a message without thinking twice about it! Thanks for the support 💯
Thanks alot for your support buddy! Without you guys there is no point of me doing this, so if you ever feel like something could be improved, feel free to tell me I will only be happy about it :D
Great video, stunning watch...the brown version positively sparkles. I have another S&S, the IWC homage and I am very happy with that. Your detailed review is refreshing...I have put it in my cart...keep up the good work.
🎉 thanks for the review ! I bought mine with the purple dial, I will let you know if it's as good as your brown one ! In my opinion, they tried to replicate more the MAEN MANHATTAN 37 instead of the VC, especially with all the colour dial
My pleasure buddy! I really hope it turns out great for you, I believe the purple one looks wine red in real life, however it still looks stunning 😍 And when you get it, tell me how you like it! 😄
@@fejeslac Hello buddy! I am not the manufacturer of these watches but I got a video from them that shows all the dials, but not in the watch, I hope this helps: ua-cam.com/users/shortsy0gUESPIUDw
Thanks for your support buddy! Really appreciated :D Valuewise this is unmatched I believe, I really hope you will enjoy this one. In the end the Manhattan is a really cool watch in itself, looks fairly different to this one in proportions and is likely finished to a different standard, but that also comes to a price. I mostly like this one due to its closer similiarties in proportions and features to the Vacheron 2215. Anyhow, really glad that you enjoyed the review! :D
Would be nice if they offered this with a steel caseback and VH31 quartz to make it even thinner and cheaper. I couldn't see myself spending on the real thing even if Vacheron were to reissue this. Nice looking piece.
Watch looks beyond amazing, i mean i bought the prx one from this brand . The bracelet was very good way better than any other AliExpress brand for that price . Yeah pagani for that price range have everything else better but still i like the watch ⌚
Indeed Pagani Design has some interesting good value options aswell 👌 Thank you for commenting, nice hearing your opinion regarding the bracelet on the PRX, I have that one too 😄
Incredible dial texture and design. I honestly like this dial more than the VC and the Maen Manhattan. It is more elegant and subtle yet not as minimalistic as the VC. I found the VC dial hard to read. It definitely borrows from both of those watches but it's different enough that it stands on its own. I am very compelled to get this watch.
Thanks for your support and even more thanks for sharing your thoughts in detail! Always nice to read 😄 I have to agree that this one design wise has a good balance, I really love the the proportions of this one over the Maen, this S&S just looks more elegant while having borrowed my the dial idea which is the only thing I like from the Maen over the VC. This S&S is currently my favorite watch in my collection
Just received my wine one, bats way above price, you do need an over 7 in wrist and mine did have a dust speck in the middle of the dial so I had to crack it open and remove it, otherwise stunned. Ordering the white/gold AND a light blue corniche.
Hey buddy! :D Really happy to hear that you enjoy it, despite the inconviniences mentioned ofcourse! And cool that you are brave enough to play around with your watches, I love to do that myself. I was also struck with a dust speckle but on the minute hand as shown in the video, however for this watch I havent openend it up, didnt really bother me for this watch since the dial has so much going on covering for small imperfections to not stand out. The bracelet fitting is quite finicky to understand, but if you remove more links, you will see that the bracelet will conform to a smaller wrist, so my point is it will not bend with a higher amount of links still attached to it. I can say this because I got my friend to try it on who has a 5´9 inch wrist, albeit a flat wrist which obviously helps his case, but it only conformed to his wrist when I removed the excess links for his size. However make sure to have atleast a wrist of 50mm in width because no matter how many links you remove that is going to be the smallest it conforms to. Sorry for the long text buddy but I wanted the information out there xD Now enjoy your watch before you order more ones! Just my two cents, watch addiction is real 😂😂😂
@@Edgaros Don't feel like you have to buddy, but it would be appreciated for sure! And make sure to check out all the watches on offer before you make your final decision, give it time and around March I believe there will be another big sale. So I advise you to wait until then if you have the patience! 😉
great review man, enjoyed watching. Think they will get the 222 right? They were debating between a few versions on reddit, I'm looking forward to that one the most currently - if they keep it slim with the sweeping VK
Thank you for the support buddy! To my knowledge the VC222 will be around 8mm and thats thanks to a quartz 2 hand movement. I will get that one as soon as possible to make a review for all of you guys. I am also pewrsonally really excited to see it in real life aswell! :D
Thank you for the great review! Quick question. What is the finishing of the inner side of the bracelet? I have another watch from the same brand (the Santos de Cartier homage) and the inner edges of the bracelet are very sharp and leave marks on my wrist. I will have to smooth them to make the watch really comfortable.
My pleasure! The inner side of the bracelet is completely brushed the same as on the top, but no polished details. The old PRX models used to have the sharp issue aswell until they fixed them, I experienced that first hand. And compared to the previous PRX issue this is not sharp at all, wearing this one for the past week has been comfortable and I have not experienced any sharpness issues I hope this answers your question, otherwise just reply again and I will try to provide more information, but I also mentioned this in my triple review video, might be interesting to have a look at.
I am happy to hear that you enjoyed it buddy! If you got the time, could you tell me how you experienced the bracelet on your wrist and how the watch feels to wear in general compared to most other watches?
@@RIOLOGY I gently polish the watch with a cape cod cloth then wash, dry and baby oil my new bracelets. very smooth now, also waterproof as much as I can the watch with silicon grease on the seals and crown stems. Always works great for me so far but I'm not a diver nor do I shower with my watches. Good show friend!
Not my cup of tea but need to admit that it look better than renders on the ali page! Good lookig design thought (not due to Mr Woodpicker and his sons).
@@FabioTWK thank you for sharing your opinion! Its thin in relevance to it being automatic and at this price point. 11mm is not a common thinness achieved by the movements used here such as the NH3X or Miyota 8XXX
@@RIOLOGYboth movements have around 9.95 mm minimum case thickness (with solid caseback). All I’m saying is it’s not really a “very thin watch”, 11 mm is just a standard size for automatics, even with the lower grade movements (that obviously aren’t super thin) unless you’re using a very rugged sports watch case (diver etc) with higher water resistance etc..
@@FabioTWK I think you have a point in what you are saying, Im just not used to NH3X watches being this thin or thick, usually Im used to see 13mm on AX But yea, the rear crystal adds some thickness to it, thats true aswell
@@jxpstfu2450 Yes I like that color too! However it is so hard to choose when they offer so many colors xD I think my next watch will be green if it is an option

Maen makes the same watch with a higher level of finishing and swiss movement…but is it 10x the price of this watch better? Personally…no…thanks for the review!
Hey buddy, not to worry, I didn't mention it but even if I did you are welcome to ask! All links are solid, and even the endslinks are solid, nothing is folded
Thanks for the review but the way you constantly move your hands and switch your hands around was very distracting to me. I think it might be better with less motion. Great job though!

Hello again. I’ve just received mine and wondering how to resize it. Is the bracelet a push pin type or it’s using screws? If it’s push pin, it’s to push the pin out where I see the split end?
Hey buddy and congratulations! It is split pins which means you'd have to use the included tool to push them out. Where you see the split end, that's where it is supposed to exit from, so inject the tool from the non-split end side. I hope this helps, if you are patient, I will try to release a how to video in likely 10 to 16 hours from now. I will post the link here in the replies so you get a notification. I hope you enjoy your watch! 🥳
@@RIOLOGY hey hey! Thanks! I’ve managed to resize the bracelet though I must say the links (or rather the pins) are its weakest link (pun intended). It’s awfully made and difficult to remove the pins and a few split.
@@lancechan8256 I am sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with them, but yes you are correct, its often the least liked option when it comes to links, but in this pricerange I do prefer them. Because they are easy to replace and if they break they wont be stuck in the bracelet forever. The one time I have had screw-in pins in watches under $250, which in theory is much better, the screws themselves was of a softer metal and the screwheads got mangled up and hard to operate, I managed to "screw" one up (pun intended 😂) and had to unscrew another link instead. Did you get a good fit on your wrist in the end? What's your wristsize 😄
@@RIOLOGY i got it to fit but found it snug on my 6.5 inch wrist. Still deciding if I should add another link as I’m dreading to muck around with the bracelet
@@lancechan8256 Ah damn, I remember resizing split pins for the first time myself, not the best experience xD However you will get the hang of it after a couple of times :P One tip is to buy a "quality" tool for like 3 USD or something like that, cant remember exactly what I paid for it, but it was cheap and DECENT ;)
hi just curious. ive tried visiting the actual website of specht & sohne and its price is double the price than from the link u gave. is the seller on ali express legit??
Hey buddy, Yes, always get your watches from Aliexpress. You get them directly from the manufacturer. From "their" website I cannot confirm who is running it, it could be some dropshipper who just acts as a middleman. Using Aliexpress also grants you extra safety with their escrow and return system in case something goes wrong with the order
Yeah I noticed it when someone first mentioned it in a comment. I contacted the AX seller and they compensated me and told me that this was an issue with the first batch and should be solved now
Of course buddy! Brown ;) Got a video from the manufacturer showing all the colors in real life, have a look before choosing ua-cam.com/users/shortsy0gUESPIUDw
Yes always get your watches from Aliexpress! I cannot confirm if the website is just a dropshipper or not. I got all my Specht & Sohne watches from Aliexpress, great customer support directly from the guy behind the brand through there. Also you have extra safety as Aliexpress uses escrow in case you would have any issues with any order from any brand! However I have developed good trust to S&S as they have fixed my issues willingly and been very helpful
Thanks for your comment 🥳 Just to make it clear, the Manhattan is looking like the Vacheron Constantin 2215 Royal Chronometer which is released way back in time. This S&S watch has more similiarities to the unobtainable VC 2215 than the Manhattan. The only design element that this watch has from the Manhattan that is original to Maen is the Cote de Geneve pattern
@@sage9743 Idk you tell me buddy, ofc its highly subjective, but looking at literally everything else but the dial, its leaning towards the VC. Because the Manhattans design is for the major part belonging to VC in the first place. Thats why I believe the credit for this design should go to Vacheron. Otherwise, I would argue that, I could make a 1:1 homage of this Specht & Sohne in the future, and then go ahead and give all the credit to S&S and forget about the 2215 and Manhattan. ------------------------ Pictures for your reference: Vacheron Constantin 2215 i.servimg.com/u/f13/20/27/42/92/bfe52510.jpg Maen Manhattan cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1014/8897/collections/MANHATTAN_MOBILE_COLLECTION.jpg?v=1643875535 Having had a look at the pictures, now tell me, (proportions, bezel, caseshape, indicies, hands, date, basically everything you can see on the S&S except for the dial pattern comes from the VC) where does the inspiration comes from? ---------------------- I hope this has been informative to you, interesting to discuss opinions and I appreciate that you show support to the channel, best wishes buddy! 🤗

It tapers quite alot as seen in the video, so that statement is not true. It might be stiff for very small and round wrists yes, so make sure to measure the width of your wrist as shown in the video before making your decision on this one. Also there is an option for a rubber strap now

Hello again. I’ve just received mine and wondering how to resize it. Is the bracelet a push pin type or it’s using screws? If it’s push pin, it’s to push the pin out where I see the split end?
Hey buddy and congratulations!
It is split pins which means you'd have to use the included tool to push them out. Where you see the split end, that's where it is supposed to exit from, so inject the tool from the non-split end side.
I hope this helps, if you are patient, I will try to release a how to video in likely 10 to 16 hours from now. I will post the link here in the replies so you get a notification.
I hope you enjoy your watch! 🥳
@@RIOLOGY hey hey! Thanks! I’ve managed to resize the bracelet though I must say the links (or rather the pins) are its weakest link (pun intended). It’s awfully made and difficult to remove the pins and a few split.
@@lancechan8256 I am sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with them, but yes you are correct, its often the least liked option when it comes to links, but in this pricerange I do prefer them. Because they are easy to replace and if they break they wont be stuck in the bracelet forever. The one time I have had screw-in pins in watches under $250, which in theory is much better, the screws themselves was of a softer metal and the screwheads got mangled up and hard to operate, I managed to "screw" one up (pun intended 😂) and had to unscrew another link instead.
Did you get a good fit on your wrist in the end? What's your wristsize 😄
@@RIOLOGY i got it to fit but found it snug on my 6.5 inch wrist. Still deciding if I should add another link as I’m dreading to muck around with the bracelet
@@lancechan8256 Ah damn, I remember resizing split pins for the first time myself, not the best experience xD However you will get the hang of it after a couple of times :P One tip is to buy a "quality" tool for like 3 USD or something like that, cant remember exactly what I paid for it, but it was cheap and DECENT ;)
hi just curious. ive tried visiting the actual website of specht & sohne and its price is double the price than from the link u gave. is the seller on ali express legit??
Hey buddy,
Yes, always get your watches from Aliexpress. You get them directly from the manufacturer. From "their" website I cannot confirm who is running it, it could be some dropshipper who just acts as a middleman.
Using Aliexpress also grants you extra safety with their escrow and return system in case something goes wrong with the order
thanks for the tips!@@RIOLOGY
@@user-rl1ci5iv2z you are welcome! Anytime
Is it just me or is the bezel off?
Yeah I noticed it when someone first mentioned it in a comment. I contacted the AX seller and they compensated me and told me that this was an issue with the first batch and should be solved now
Just to be safe, you can always ask for QC pictures before they ship out your watch, they are friendly to talk to
does it come with leather strap???
Thanks for commenting, unfortunately no strap option for this model
May I know what color is the dial? It’s brown?
Of course buddy! Brown ;)
Got a video from the manufacturer showing all the colors in real life, have a look before choosing

@@RIOLOGY thank you so much!
The NH35 movement has not been around for decades as it was introduced in 2011. Otherwise a good review.
Thank you for the correction! That is true, I must have misunderstood and mixed the history with the competing miyota 8215
I think they are releasing a Vacheron 222 homage soon.
Indeed they are, and I will get one ASAP for review ;)
@@RIOLOGY I’m hoping it’s nice and thin like the real one.
@@James20013 It will be 8mm according to the manufacturer himself :D Looking forward to get the 2 hander quartz
@@RIOLOGY that’s nice and thin. 🤔 I think lol.
@@James20013 Yes 8 mm is very thin :D
is the seller from aliexpress legit? cus its cheaper there compared to the actual website..
Yes always get your watches from Aliexpress! I cannot confirm if the website is just a dropshipper or not. I got all my Specht & Sohne watches from Aliexpress, great customer support directly from the guy behind the brand through there. Also you have extra safety as Aliexpress uses escrow in case you would have any issues with any order from any brand! However I have developed good trust to S&S as they have fixed my issues willingly and been very helpful
Do more homages
I will, and one veeery interesting coming up in a month hopefully! 😉
Have you seen Specht and sohne’s homage of the Cartier santos?
Unfortunately I havent had it in my hands, but it seem to sell very well
@@RIOLOGY I’m thinking about grabbing it, but I’m waiting for someone to make a video review 😂.
@@James20013 Yes that is the smartest thing to do hahaha
👏🏽💪🏽
Appreciated! :D
Looks like Maen Manhattan.
Thanks for your comment 🥳
Just to make it clear, the Manhattan is looking like the Vacheron Constantin 2215 Royal Chronometer which is released way back in time.
This S&S watch has more similiarities to the unobtainable VC 2215 than the Manhattan.
The only design element that this watch has from the Manhattan that is original to Maen is the Cote de Geneve pattern
Not that it matters but doesn’t the Cote de Geneve pattern make this look more like the Manhattan than the VC?
@@sage9743 Idk you tell me buddy, ofc its highly subjective, but looking at literally everything else but the dial, its leaning towards the VC. Because the Manhattans design is for the major part belonging to VC in the first place. Thats why I believe the credit for this design should go to Vacheron.
Otherwise, I would argue that, I could make a 1:1 homage of this Specht & Sohne in the future, and then go ahead and give all the credit to S&S and forget about the 2215 and Manhattan.

Having had a look at the pictures, now tell me, (proportions, bezel, caseshape, indicies, hands, date, basically everything you can see on the S&S except for the dial pattern comes from the VC) where does the inspiration comes from?

I hope this has been informative to you, interesting to discuss opinions and I appreciate that you show support to the channel, best wishes buddy! 🤗
It’s a Maen copy. I might get the blue one.
@@sage9743 Hahahah enjoy your blue VC homage buddy 😉
Looks like a direct clone of the Maen Manhattan.
The Manhattan itself is a direct clone of the VC 2215 if we go by that logic 😂

@@RIOLOGY Close. I'd say the Maen is comfortably in the homage territory but this is a direct clone. Surprised they aren't copying the VC.
Montone voice. Couldn't make it till the end.
Good feedback, I actually held back because I am usually shouting occasionally when I talk 😂
that bracelet is absolute TRASH like the rest of specht bracelets. its stiff af zero taper
It tapers quite alot as seen in the video, so that statement is not true.
It might be stiff for very small and round wrists yes, so make sure to measure the width of your wrist as shown in the video before making your decision on this one.
Also there is an option for a rubber strap now
