      This was the phrase that grabbed my attention too. But not because I agree with the second part of it. Because there is a clear answer to why that is and also a way of rectifying it.
      Unfortunately the brain got too cozy with the way it is and there is no hope for the near future.

    What a brilliant series. Each episode is written like a drama film. Building itself with questions that both befuddle the mind, and find yourself asking “where is it all going”? It all crescendos to an apex where the true talent and genius of the watch at hand is unfurled in tight prose and entertaining narration. It all makes for an addicting series that always begs the same final question: what’s next?!

    You may have forgotten some fancy material in this (as usual) perfectly made video. For instance palladium (used in some Hublot big bang pieces), tungsten (uBoat), sapphire (Hublot unico).
    I have a Pam386, a Zenith Type 20 and a Tudor BB in bronze, they are beautiful but too easy to get scratches and dings. A ceramic IWC Top Gun (non dopplerchrono), AP diver and Hublot big bang: nice but sometimes black watches are not so lovely to look at (especially if dull, that's why I never got a carbon fiber one). A titanium Tudor Pelagos LHD: lovely and light but also extremely easy to scratch...
    In the end for day by day usage, the stainless steel is still the winner as it comprehend a good amount of all the qualities of the previous ones and remains a good robust material.

    The melodious sound with the Oxford style accent and the rather pleasing diction and the use of words that flow into ideas, make this review all the more interesting than the complex yet simple information that is conveyed. Although hypnotic to the point of nauseam at times, nonetheless the information about things that are fascinating is presented in fashion that makes me believe that wheat I'm learning is valuable for my every day life. The problem for me is that I cannot command the information to commit to memory, nor can I repeat it to friends at dinner, a party and certainly not to a class, to which I have no access. Still this is refreshing lecture; not cosmology but high communication to my lower basic instincts, as well as to some level of my hierarchy of neeeds. AF
