Just found this and I enjoyed it. So many nice choices. I love the lighter! I would add, myself, that I prefer the Pen Type B from CW & T, as my EDC, hi-end pen. It's got a great cartridge with the Hi-Tec C. Oh, and it has a brass sleeve. The pen was released in 2015.
Including James Brand at $679 when a CRK Sebenza can be had for $250 less should make anyone and everyone question the motives of this video. Nomos is nice though.
Sebenzas are objectively really great grail knives, though I’d argue an integral titanium knife is a much better pick from a premium and luxury standpoint. If this guide was focused on products with the best value than sure, Sebenza wins, but that wasn’t really the aim of this guide. And yeah, you’re not wrong about that NOMOS. Thing is stunning!
@@Heavy_Metal_Cyclist I'd agree here. However, I would not consider Bellroy to be anywhere close to "luxury". Their quality does not justify 140E price (because former is bad. Very bad).
Interesting choices…if a little unconventional. I would definitely swap the watch for a Rolex Sub ( or a quality Tudor), the flashlight is cool but too bulky imho I would do RovyVon E4 Pro Ti, the key is cool but most of us have key fobs, I would swap the lighter with a S.T. Dupont Line 2, The glasses with ray ban wayfarer because of its proven quality, the wallet with a quality Prada wallet, the Pen with a cross pen (or montblanc if you want something better) , the B&O with AirPods Pro 2. And there you go that’s my current EDC. I would say just as premium and more mainstream maybe?
Love your videos but the S’s in this video were unbearable for me to listen to personally… please consider EQing your mic to minimize those aggressive S’s❤
I don’t know why you would want a metal iPhone case you could never wireless charge your phone or use Apple Pay. At least I don’t believe you could could be wrong though.
Luxury and iphone case dont go together. Nothing screams cheap more than a phone with a case. Get Apple care, ditch the case, and admire the design of the phone.
Worth the money...!? $600 to $900 range for the beoplay earphones does not sound worth the money! Obviously, you are getting paid too much from crappy videos and have money to burn! $900 earphones, ridiculous!
Cool channel.....Great video...But this Nomos as an EDC seems forced. It is more of a dress watch, NOT an EDC....I expected something more rugged, more durable, not something as thin as paper.. The lume is NOT that great, applied indices is what you would expect. As an EDC, showcasing the back of the movement is the least we care about... I expect better when I am recommended something considered as a EDC....Do better as a recommendation for EDC.
I mean, I don‘t know what your definition of an EDC is, but personally I think the Nomos being as thin as it is while still having 200m of water resistance and a look-through caseback is quite amazing. Yes it is more on the dressier side and yes the indices should be applied and yes all polished surfaces will be more fragile when it comes to scratches. Still the ability to wear this piece literally to anything and for any occasion makes it a pretty good edc. But I‘d love to know which watch you‘d prefer as an edc. From what you said maybe a metal g-shock?
A fully polished case is not a good choice for everyday-use except for office jobs. Fully polished cases show any dents and scratch marks easily. He does not have any idea about watches imo 😂
@@oguzhanakdogan9787 as I mentioned, it depends on what „everyday“ means for you. If you‘re working on a construction side, you‘d obviously pick something like a gshock, just because it probably outperforms any mechanical watch for a fraction of the price.
I small jealousy here. My EDC watches are Rolex Daytonas, Patek Nautilus, platinum FP Journes. ‘Do better as a recommendation for EDC’? Maybe you should make your own EXC channel then. 🤷🏻♂️
@@JC-hu3yj you *small jealousy here? If you can afford a Daytona you should have more attention to detail with your grammar. Not jealous. I don’t care for nomos to begin with, especially having this model considered as an EDC.

I appreciate so much you taking the time to put prices in the description so I don’t have to.
Whent for a grand seiko for my last watch ...but this nomos ...damn it is Nice. I nearly took one . Maybe the next
Great video-thanks for the feature!
Thank you for the shout out. Tsubota Pearl make some of the best lighters around. Well done!
Do you guys have a contributor in Germany or Austria?
We don’t. Our entire team is based in and around the Los Angeles area.
*Can't afford a single product, but enjoyed the video* 😅😅😅
just sad that the Rimowa cases don't work with MagSafe and wireless charging haha
They’re also really heavy, easily over 40g

Beautiful watch. Nomos in greek means law.
The prices are wild
where can i find that mt rainier glass?
That's from our friends at Huckberry - fave.co/3ROyS8O

Also HIC wasn’t paid by The James Brand. The pick was selected based purely on the merits of the knife.
Did you read the title of this video?
Didn't you know that luxury means paying more for an inferior product? Lol
First time on this channel & I'm impressed. A1, sub
Price doesn’t mean value, that’s for sure
"High-end luxury"
*shows bellroy wallet"
For 95% of the people, a 140€ Wallet is High End Luxury. Most people i know would spend 60€ at max.
@@Heavy_Metal_Cyclist I'd agree here. However, I would not consider Bellroy to be anywhere close to "luxury". Their quality does not justify 140E price (because former is bad. Very bad).
Get a NATO strap on that nomos and you’re golden. Glorious watch.
I want that 911 key for my 1995 ford escort station wagon that dies every block I drive past.
Thanks for reviewing your dads gear
Great video, well done!
None of these products look like they'd do what they're designed to do particularly well, definitely not well enough to justify their cost
Still one of my favorite channels
I was thinking that watch at the beginning was a budget Amazon brand or something only to check the description and it’s over $4k 😂
Sebenza>
That damn nomos is beautiful
No prices?
All prices are in the description 👍

James brand is way overpriced
it should be they took my name
If you look at the blade carefully, you will see chipping that shouldn't occur unless heavily used.
Covering the phone with metal will just burn more battery power.
for the rimowa case, you can pass on it, it’s slippery af
I don’t know why you would want a metal iPhone case you could never wireless charge your phone or use Apple Pay. At least I don’t believe you could could be wrong though.
Apple Pay works :) It also scratches and dents up beautifully like the luggage
$450 for a key??
lol I'd rather have a sebenza for less than that James brand
Replace the watch with a Tissot PRX
doesnt make sense
Luxury and iphone case dont go together. Nothing screams cheap more than a phone with a case. Get Apple care, ditch the case, and admire the design of the phone.
Not sure about that. There is a whole market for luxury cases. Always has been.
Don’t confuse your minimalism for other people’s luxury.
how do you afford this rock and roll lifestyle.
You can replicate for 1/10th the price with equivilent quality. You could lose any of these traveling. Looks like pretty boy EDC.
Worth the money...!? $600 to $900 range for the beoplay earphones does not sound worth the money! Obviously, you are getting paid too much from crappy videos and have money to burn!
$900 earphones, ridiculous!
👍
$2000 for the shades? Maybe if Andrew Yang was president and we had a $1000 per month UBI
This guy doesn't know knives or flashlights AT ALL
yeah it's like painfully obvious lmao
Apparently the same goes for audio as well

really aliexpress quality
QUALITY🤌✨
Worst narration ever
Capitalism is a cancer and that 2 minute ad read for a 4k watch was nauseating.
Why you are watching a channel literally called HiConsumption then?
