    I just saw one of these in a jewelry store near me. It really is nice. I have a 7-1/4" wrist and I would definitely get it if it was 42 mm. Might still get it anyway. Love the blue.

    • @WrongTimeWatch

      It is a nice shade of blue and a good looking watch for sure.

    That is really nice. Love those hands, that is how you do skeleton hands. And its very cool that the hour hand perfectly encapsulates the 24hr scale and points right to it. Really well designed, you can tell some thought went into this one even if it is quirky. Looks pretty thin too. Its way too big for me but I'm impressed.

    • @WrongTimeWatch
      @WrongTimeWatch  Рік тому

      That is a good point. Everything is intentional, just a bit strange. It is nice to have things designed a little differently from the norm though.

    I like Victorinox very much. I have the Maverick. My only complaint with the brand is that they have many watches with odd size lug widths.

    • @WrongTimeWatch
      @WrongTimeWatch  7 місяців тому +1

      That is a good point that I did not think about until you mentioned it. I am not sure why they do that. 20, and 22mm would be preferred for sure.

    Sadly, the minute hand of this watch is way too hard to see especially in less-than-perfect lighting conditions. I returned mine because I thought it was a manufacturer mistake. The lume on the minute hand is much longer on all of the manufacturer photos.

    • @WrongTimeWatch
      @WrongTimeWatch  Рік тому

      You are right, I did not notice that until you pointed it out. I wonder why it looks different in the marketing material?

    Hello, good comments. But I have to ask you: don't you see anything wrong with this watch? And which competitor (price/quality) do you think is better? Thank you.

    • @WrongTimeWatch
      @WrongTimeWatch  5 місяців тому

      Buying watches is such a personal decision, I can't really tell you or anyone else what watch to buy. One of my favorite watches is the BB58, but not knowing your financial situation, I don't feel comfortable recommending that to you.

      @@WrongTimeWatch Yes. I never thougt about that brand (in a positive way). They are known for the knives. But I remember a carbon made watch with a Paracord wrist band who I thouht about for tough circumstances.
      But then I needed to understand that they used a carbon-resin-mixture.
      Resin?! Okay, for a G-Shock. But for 1'000 Bucks and more?!
      No way. So they had been deleted out of my mind.
      Maybe another reason is that 5km from my home Carl F. Bucherer has his flagship store in Lucerne, Nayla Hayek from Swatch Group is one of my neighbours and one of my largest clients makes special metals for Rolex, Audemars Piguet and Patek Philippe. And of course, it might have made a little impression on me that I had the luck of being involved in the selling of Bucherer Group to Rolex and the Founding of Norquain Watches and the involving of Jean-Claude Biver.
      So "something" forced me to focus on producing a high claaa carbon watch

      Thanks to the Lake Lucerne in front of my house I am Diving Sometimes. But therefore I bought a 80120-3NCA-BUIDN from Edox. We sometimes go deeper then 100m and this is where I do Not want to wear a Norquain.
      A used Edox in very good conditions with 100ATM guarantee.
      Not nice and for diving only.
      My next one will be an Oris watch.
      01 115 7759 7153-Set5 22 04TLC - 10 (!) days power reserve. A technical masterpiece.
      Or a 01 400 7778 7157-Set - I LOVED the Muppets when I was young.
      Do you trade with watches?
      I thouht about a business model with certified pre-owned (cpo) watches (Automatic) on entry level only. With ETA, SW, Seiko and Miyota calibres. Revisionised by Specialists who I have a lot here in CH. They are simple to repair and might have much higher sells because of the low price.
      I also have guys with machines to polish the wrist bands and watch housings. They are very effective against microswirls. So the cpo watches will be technically new and optically nearby new.
      But I would need partners at least in US, CN and JAP to get that business running.
      To collect the watches on a Service Point, that we can send more then one watch to CH for the service. That, by the way, will be about 30 USD for polishing and doing the revision. Spare parts needs to be added, but the Guys who would provide the service for us are in Grenchen/CH, next to Swatch Group's ETA Workbench. And they have the japanese spare parts there, too.
      Are you interested? Your Part could, in addition, be to produce Videos of the watches with a review. To raise sellings on one hand and clicks on YT in your Channel on the other hand.
      Regards,
      P.

    Ordered mine on sale for close to half price from an AD. Bezel is slightly misaligned, the bracelet version is a joke, no micro adjustments. The bracelet makes the lug to lug wider because first link is stuck in position and doesn't drop down, similar to tissots prx but longer. Also the top part of them lugs are sharp and stick out a little when on the straps.

    • @WrongTimeWatch
      @WrongTimeWatch  Рік тому +1

      I agree, the bracelet should have some micro adjustment. Male end links could be alright if they curve down, otherwise, yea not good.
