As others have commented, please stop with the clickbait titles Jenni... It didn't result in a spike in clicks (only 23k views at time of writing this) - it honestly makes you lose a lot of credibility.
At least you have to appreciate the effort they put into making gold look like stainless steel. The next special release will have a diamond case plated with bioceramic.
When you think of white gold, you're probably thinking of rhodium plated golds. These have a shinier surface; actual gold would be under a thin layer of rhodium plating. In canopus gold, rhodium is not plated but rather mixed (so to speak) with gold and some other precious metals.
Canopus was likely chosen for describing the gold alloy because of the color of the star. Canopus is generally listed as an F0 class star which is described as either pure white, or perhaps just a bit warmer than pure white. That matches up well with how most people describe the color of white gold--either pure white, or just very slightly warmer than something like platinum or most steel alloys. I don't know for sure how Omega chose the name, but my explanation seems to fit pretty well. For bright stars in the sky, Canopus is considered the reference for a pure white star.
Picked up a amzwatch's watch as my first watch last month and I’m absolutely in love with it. Perfect size, looks elegant, very comfortable. Now my only problem is holding off from buying more watches so quickly!
Big fan of the Speedy, but if I was spending this sort of money I'd be shopping for something more exclusive like a Lange One or the Breguet Tradition Retrograde.
Precious metal watches are never “worth it” as the average gold watch will have slightly less than 1oz of gold valued at roughly $2,400 USD. So, you are paying 2-5X the cost of the steel version for $2,400 worth of gold. Design looks are subjective but value is arguably more objective.
Nice quick review. It does seem like the brushed too many surfaces, thus negating their white gold’s superior shine. I’d add - even in the secondary market that’s a lot of money for a non- bracelet watch.
You’re neglecting the fact that the crocodile strap comes from Charlie, the famous crocodile that starred in Crocodile Dundee and Romancing the Stone. He was an Oscar winner, was nominated once for a Tony, and was Elizabeth Taylor’s fourth husband. A most singular reptile. It is a privilege to own a piece of him.
Please change the title of the video. it has nothing to do with the content as you present it. As for the watch itself, I'm not a huge fan of the Speedy, but if I were to buy one that looks like it's made with a stainless steel case, I'd buy one with a stainless steel case. Way too expensive for my tastes, and being a fan of the Zenith El Primero, I'd spend my hard-earned money on a Chronomaster Original or Sport (for that Daytona look).
I like it, fortunately it is too big and chunky for my refined wrist. (The detailing of your video photography is sublime). White gold (as you well know) is 18ct but the chalky colour is down to the mix of alloys....in this case a kind of stainless steel tone. The strap and deployant on the correct wrist shape will look great too but for my money the absence of the warm glister of rose or yellow gold makes the additional investment a rather pointless paradox.
So what you like is the look of rhodium plating? ;) I like all of the precious metal Speedy Pros but Canopus is definitely the one I would get last, after Sedna and then Moonshine.
Hey Jenni, just a quick bit of feedback: The video title and content don’t match at all, and that honestly convinced me not to watch your videos in the future. I actually like your content, but clickbait really isn’t my thing. I’m writing this because people usually don’t get to know why someone stops following them. Wishing you all the best for the future!
I've always bought Ulysse Nardin watches and they are not worth the money I've paid. I just like them. This is the only reason why I'm spending thousands of Euros in watches.
you can buy everything but i only buy omega seamaster iconic james bond😂 after that i prefer using rolex for daily, patek for glory days and audemars for sport day😂
All those bloggers who release videos with the headlines "Don't buy Speedy" - all these bloggers were bribed by Rolex. They were all bought by Rolex. They lay down under Rolex.
Touch grass bro why spend $24K on a gold speedy when there are literally handcrafted masterpieces at that price secondhand. You can buy an Cal 1861 speedy for $5K why spend more than that
I too like white gold to give a warm light. Also, that black strap is ass. The contrast is too strong. They should have considered grey instead of black to get a more balanced feel.
Probably too big for my just barely 7-inch wrist. 40 mm is tops for me. Someone complained about your speaking too quickly in a previous video, and I noticed that you did seem somewhat slower this time. I think that you just get excited sometimes and you just can't help getting quicker. I have no complaints. As a matter of fact, for someone whose second (maybe 3rd, I don't know) language is English, I think you and your husband do a remarkable job. Oh, nice manicure today, too. I notice those things. Yes, I'm weird like that. Being a watch nerd isn't the only thing that I geek out about.
Pathetic title and I seriously doubt anybody ever asked you about Canopus gold. I'm actually surprised anybody would ask your opinion on anything watch related in fact.
Omega is an embarrassment these days. I used to have a Seamaster 300M but it's such a big cumbersome oaf of a thing, I'm glad to see the back of it. Same goes for all their models. They're big, stupid, and overpriced. And they've done the gimmicky nerd stuff to death with the Bond and Space crap. Oh, great, let's pay Rolex prices for some cartoon dog watch with a billion variations, lol. No thanks.
If you don't know the significance of that cartoon then they were never meant for you in the first place. Sorry but you are plain stupid the call it "space crap". Omega x-33 and speedy is still used by astronauts.
Please shut it you Rollover fan. Just say you’re not smart, that you don’t like real space, and that you like to overpay or wear fashion watches you bum

Very nice watch but I still prefer the classic black dial with hesalite.

I'm confused. Why is the video titled, "Don't buy these"?
Why this title "Don't Buy These" ? Clickbait thing ?
Hum the video is good but i give you a thumbs downs for this title.
Always baiting… nothing new. Her husbands channel is the same.
Probably should have added, "at Retail," since that was her advice. I don't know who writes the headlines.
It's pretty obvious she made a mistake and put in the wrong or incomplete title.
She doesnt know crap about watches
On her wrist it wears like Big Ben. Why even show it on her wrist?
I’m happy with my white lacquered Speedmaster purchased from Omega boutique 3 months ago.😍
yes the white dial speedy is so so beautiful!!!
Big fan of the Speedy, but if I was spending this sort of money I'd be shopping for something more exclusive like a Lange One or the Breguet Tradition Retrograde.
It always amazes me how much beauty and precision are added to the parts of amzwatch's watch 99% of people will never see.
Also avialable with canapus gold bracelett ?
Cannibus gold: a gold watch you'd only buy if you're high!
lmao. hell even im baked af but i'd never buy a watch with a penis at the 12

Absolutely. It's like searching for the best value Richard Mille, it's an oxymoron, just like these precious metal sports watches.
brilliant second hand buys though! when you end up paying a lot less, unlike the steel versions

I agree with you . This watch is to big . For the NAVTIMER , 4 size of casing are available. I hope that OMEGA will follow this way.
Having more sizes available would be amazing!
@@JenniElle Thank you so much for your answer.

Huge Zenith fan, and aside from Zenith, I seek out the Rolex Daytona Zenith models and movements.
Zenith El Primero. Nuff said.
And Bamford can do 100% custom on the Primero!
buying as many as possible ie all of em

"Don't Buy These" is cringy. A clownish embarrassing title just asking for it.
A persons watch choice is personal. There is no such thing as a perfect watch.
Thanks for the episode
is this gold rhodium plated?
Rhodium is in the metal alloy, along with palladium and platinum. It would be shinier were it rhodium plated.
@@thompsonterry4804 are you sure? it's all brushed.
So what you like is the look of rhodium plating? ;) I like all of the precious metal Speedy Pros but Canopus is definitely the one I would get last, after Sedna and then Moonshine.
ahh didn't know that! But yeah, seems like it :-D !
At 24,000 dollars I don't think I'll have much of a problem not buying this.
I thought it was canape gold and I ate it! 😮

very nice looking watch but way out of my budget :(
Still saving for the steel white
you can buy everything but i only buy omega seamaster iconic james bond😂 after that i prefer using rolex for daily, patek for glory days and audemars for sport day😂
Can you call something gold when it has no gold in it?
You would call it gold tone. This is 18k gold though so not relevant in this case
75% of this is gold!
@@mosmarb as is every other proper jewellery like Rolex, Patek Phillipe etc. 24kt (100%) gold is far too soft for a watch!
@@jonathanstamp yep, I was replying to the original poster, in agreement with what you said :)
All those bloggers who release videos with the headlines "Don't buy Speedy" - all these bloggers were bribed by Rolex. They were all bought by Rolex. They lay down under Rolex.
And your evidence for that is….?
Have a day off mate😂
Don't buy speedy especially the saphire sandwitch. Make the priced go down . !!!!! Then I can get one 😊.
Touch grass bro why spend $24K on a gold speedy when there are literally handcrafted masterpieces at that price secondhand. You can buy an Cal 1861 speedy for $5K why spend more than that
The sky is blue and the grass is green. What’s your point?
I agree with @michaelr21, the title is misleading and has me questioning the overall credibility of the video
Are you wearing your wedding Datejust again?
I kept hearing Cannabis Gold 😅
I too like white gold to give a warm light. Also, that black strap is ass. The contrast is too strong. They should have considered grey instead of black to get a more balanced feel.

Unobtainium is more expensive than gold.

This was actually the first video of Jenni’s where I had to turn on the captions.
You noticed her manicure? Estrogen running a bit high today lol not that there’s anything wrong with that
@@Greysprunkiyay 😂
Weirdo alert.
Lug to lug is the more important measurement. 47.x is fine for most.
Is hesalite more valuable than sapphire?
Les chats de gouttière préfèrent celle en Sacapus Gold.
Don't buy speedy especially the saphire sandwitch. Make the price go down . !!!!! Then I can get one 😊
Ridiculous! Just get the original black steel moonwatch
Look at, just by Rolex steel sports and you're good.
Pathetic title and I seriously doubt anybody ever asked you about Canopus gold. I'm actually surprised anybody would ask your opinion on anything watch related in fact.
Agree with other comments, the title is cringe
You should have got your husband to model.the watch!
Way too big for you. But still a nice watch.

Tell us how you really feel😂😂😂

For me, looking at the watch from the side the design is too odd for me. :-)
Title doesnt match the video. Clickbait. Unsub.
Clickbait. Unsubscribed.
Now that the white dial Speedy Pro is out there, why in the heck would anyone want to buy the Canopus gold version for more than 4 times the money??
Oh Jenni - those tattoos do nothing to help you showcase the watch on wrist.
Yet other people will like them. I don't think she got them for your benefit.
@@davidloveday8473hey don’t come for my friend you scrub!!! Tattoos are not pretty or classy!!!
@REB1313A None of your F business !
