Thank you! I need to upload one soon! I honestly haven’t used the leather strap for ages and I’m thinking I’m ready to go back to it especially since the weather is getting colder!
@@ConstanTime I am curious partly because I may be looking at the IWC Pilot 36mm on leather (and bracelet). I have a smaller wrist unfortunately, so the Le Petit Prince is not a good option for me. There have been some negative comments about the Selita movement, so I will see. If I may ask, were you able to negotiate any discount?
@@tbprofile1295 my little prince is the older version, the newer comes at 41mm as well plus keep in mind that if there’s one watch type that allows oversized wear is the pilot. For Selita, I would call bs on that, they are in many watches and serve without issues plus it would bring the cost of ownership down with much cheaper services. Unless you’re planning to sell soon. I bought mine from a professional dealer that only had gray market and used watches. I bought mine as “used” but it was really like new since I was the one activating the warranty (good for 8 years). I would suggest you buy used or gray market so you buy cheaper and in any case save tons on depreciation. For example, I still to this day can’t find mine for the same price I got it for, which means I could potentially make money or break even at worst if I decided to sell (never happening)
Tudor is a joke, i bought a bb58 cos of the hype and it was a really boring watch, i didnt like the hour hand and bracelet. Once i got my iwc mark, i sold thr tudor, have kept the iwc for 2 years now, still really enjoy it and its my only watch i wear.
So basically the same story as me! They are so over hyped and the fact that you can get a true Rolex competitor like IWC with just few bucks more is insane! Thanks for sharing!
@@ConstanTime I've owned Rolex in the past, to be honest I prefer iwc to any other brand, a special brand imo, they make simple watch designs look amazing. Rolex are everywhere, there are millions of fakes as well, the brand has lost its reputation imo.
@@coffeeboyclips1973 I hear all your points and agree to all. I can’t believe I have to explain to people that their $4500 1965 dayjust is a total waste of money when compared to a modern era IWC or equivalent. But most people want the brand, even most UA-camrs which will try to convince you about the prestige and heritage of a VC, or even Hamilton, all by wearing a Rolex on their wrists. They are not even true to their own self. It’s aggravating!
IWC sucks. Their movements are trash. The only thing they excel in is finishing. Spend the extra coin and get a Rolex. Rock solid movements that will run ACCURATELY for years and years without a service.
Yeah, that's a real watch. Congratulations.
Thank you!!!
Congrats! Just subbed!
And you just made the first comment on this channel! Thank you for your support!
Beautiful watch. Nice choice!
Did you give us a wrist shot? Would be nice to see how it looks on the leather also.

Is that a 41 or 43mm? And don’t forget the wrist shoots!
It’s 43, the newer model comes at 41 and 43. Will do! Thanks for the feedback!

I assume you had a bad experience with them? Which model did you have and what happened? Which Rolex do you have?
