"Personality" is a good way to describe the design of this watch. Like it or dislike it, not too many people will forget meeting [seeing] it. Not for me. But I respect and appreciate companies like Brew and StudioUnderd0g having a specific design language and not being afraid to stick to it.
I like the way you presenting the watch, the way you speak, the tone you speak. Its just keep attract me to stay on the video. Hope you keep it this way.
Bought one for my daughter’s college graduation (the 8 bit version) because she worked her way through school as burrista at Starbucks. The quality is amazing. And it is such a good watch which doesn’t take itself too seriously. Great vid!
You have a way of winning me over to your train of thought. I do believe this is a visually stimulating watch. Doing what microbrands do well, simplistic originality with a nod to the past. Yes by the end of the review I want this watch in my collection. Well done Shane.... again.
I agree fully, the watch is beautiful, good balance, interesting and unique with very much interesting dial. Couldn't say it better! Great review as always friend! Keep em coming!
If I were a bigger guy and not pasty white; I would go for the gold one in a heartbeat. It has that 70s "I'm gonna break your legs" vibe to it. That watch and a couple of gold chains would be classic 🤠
Great Review! I had seen this watch for a while. I kept looking at it and it's beautiful. I knew I wanted one, well "had" to have it. I recently went to the NYC Watch Show and there it was right in front of me. My husband saw my face and the joy! He purchased it for me instantly and I'm over the moon happy! I can see myself wearing this for many years to come. I ❤️ Brew!
I really like it. Just bought the PVD black version with an additional brew leather strap which is shaped just like the bracelet so it looks seamless with the case unlike the brown strap in this video
Nice review. I've been trying for a couple of years to decide if I liked these or hated them. Teddy Baldassarre is the only one I've ever seen review them and seems a big fan.
I have been wearing this watch in these exact colors for almost two years. Still like it a lot. I very much concur with all that‘s been mentioned in the review (btw, really nice to give a watch a second review after a period of using). However, those hands can be very hard to make out in difficult lighting or at a quick glimpse, especially when over the bright sub dials. That‘s my only gripe. Have been swimming with it all summer, though, and the watch kept out the water just fine.
Stunner of a watch. Hey, if you want a Micro Brand you’re going to pay more. I love Aliexpress watches but Micro Brands definitely have their place. But 19mm? Why??? Thanks for the great review.
That might be tricky since it's a more unusual lug width. I've got a few 20mm straps, but no 19 that would work. I'm sure someone out there sells one though.
These Brew things look so interesting that I really tend to buy one, whenever I see a review. The good thing is, that I just ordered a Wise Hitman today. This prevents me from doing it now. Let’s see, when the day comes when I can’t resist anymore. 🎉🕐🍸
Hi, I understand that these watches have a stated lug width of less than 20mm. Are you able to confirm if aftermarket third-party straps made for 20mm lug width watches can fit between the lugs of this watch?
Like the asymmetrical dial, hate analog chronos. Like the color palette, hate the "old tv" shape. Like it on strap, hate 19mm lug. PS Got a coin? Tails i like, heads i hate it😉
@@themicrobrandexpert What's the fuzz with the blockage? Did i miss something? If it's fun, tell me.If not, sorry... EDIT: Oh, now i get it (saw your last vid)! But my question is: Why is your Apple watch frozen at that "screen"? Needs update??😋😂 Ok, joke aside, i can understand the appeal of such watches, not this though. I'm bit of a weirdo in fact, as i'm a notorious hater of all analog chronographs(!!!), not that much a divers guy (as you....were???😏), LOVE plain 3 hand(ers), plus quite like squares (or any weird shape indeed), still Brew doesn't ring a bell. On the good side, you just got a new subscriber! Romania has a very soft spot in my heart, plus i like your narration and themes/vids. Funny enough, i was watching your last SOTC vid a few days ago. Wise.... (pun intended!😂😂)
@@stavros_katsopr, I don't know what to be most excited about - you subscribing to my channel, knowing about Romania or having previously watched my content. I guess I'll choose you trying to figure out what the hell I was on which is what eventually led you to those aforementioned aspect. In all seriousness, in this age of fast-forwarding through as much stuff that we end up not remembering, I am really grateful to have gained a subscriber capable of old-fashioned thinking! Wise, indeed :D
I got to see this in person at the Wind Up Watch Fair last year, and it's been almost a physical struggle to not buy one for myself. Maybe once I finally get an Underd0g watermelon and a few of my dad's old watches repaired... Also, count me among the "24hr subdails are useless" crowd.
you know what they say - happy wife, happy life. Pray to the gods she doesn't claim it as hers... or maybe you should. So you can get another watch (different model, etc.) and just "borrow" the Metric from her when you feel like wearing. Buy wife-specfic straps while at it if she does. Because again, happy wife, happy life.
But how often do you actually do that? That's been the main reason I never got one. I just don't think I'd use it for that or txt. I'd rather just pull out my phone for a better experience. It's in my pocket anyways.
Glad to see you continuing to enjoy your Metric watch!
I have. It even made my top ten list.

Thanks! The 8-bit one is so cool. My original plan was to sell this and buy that one after, but I'm keeping this one.

Loved it from the start….if it ever goes on sale…..SOLD

🤠 The full gold one may be a little too much, but there is something about the gold and black version that I like.

I really like it. Just bought the PVD black version with an additional brew leather strap which is shaped just like the bracelet so it looks seamless with the case unlike the brown strap in this video
I didn't know they had any straps for it. I'll have to check that out!
This has always been a cool one and perhaps the best color version, too
After that closer look it really is a nice looking watch. Thanks for another great review Shane
Nice review. I've been trying for a couple of years to decide if I liked these or hated them. Teddy Baldassarre is the only one I've ever seen review them and seems a big fan.
I have had this watch for some time, but for whatever reason I don't wear it very often. However, after this video, it is now on deck for tomorrow!

I like the case , nice nod to the old days Yema etc …i pull the trigger on the San Martin BB chrono in green $225 on Ali on their store now
Shane 👏🏼 cool video. Still my doubts about the watch but will see in a future.
Best regards buddy.
Love the style of this channel.
Thanks!
I do like this type of watches. I need think I'm going for an Aevig sometime...
Where did you get that brown leather rally strap from? It looks so funky and awesome on this watch. Thanks!
I'm thinking about getting one and adding a mesh strap, can't find any images though.
That might be tricky since it's a more unusual lug width. I've got a few 20mm straps, but no 19 that would work.
I'm sure someone out there sells one though.

I'm actually wearing a hitman right now. The lume will not disappoint... this thing is crazy.

I mention it in the video, but no 20mm won't work. All the straps I use are 19mm
Where is that brown/tan leather strap with the white stitching from? Great review btw!
Thanks! I bought it from here, but not seeing it on their site anymore. It's a great strap.

This watch is so not boring!
My very initial impression was "No"!!!! However, by the end of your review, I like it quite a bit. Thanks, Shane....
So is the 24 hour subdial under the black dial?
I assume so. They just ignored it and covered it up.
I'm guessing that the small post used for the 24 hr subdial hand was removed before the dial is put on the movement.
nice watch
Studio Underdog watch brand next video please reason why there fun and different to other watch brands thanks.
Love the concept ... Hate the look!😀🙃😀🙃😉
just wish the date was at 3
Damn, this is such a cool design but a $450 USD price tag is a lil higher than i'd like
you know what they say - happy wife, happy life. Pray to the gods she doesn't claim it as hers... or maybe you should. So you can get another watch (different model, etc.) and just "borrow" the Metric from her when you feel like wearing. Buy wife-specfic straps while at it if she does.

I like looking at it, but don’t want to own one.
TWIIISTOFLEX!
That placement of the date window ruins every watch for me.
With its original belt only looks good not suitable with leather
The Apple Watch over this won it for me. I mean it takes phone calls
But how often do you actually do that? That's been the main reason I never got one. I just don't think I'd use it for that or txt. I'd rather just pull out my phone for a better experience. It's in my pocket anyways.
Dome things just need to be left in the past, this watch included. It isn't just ugly, it's fugly!
Do you mean the crystal or the watch shape?

You mean nudes?
