  • This watch maker is consistently making watches that look like very expensive luxury watches but are surprisingly affordable. Their use of materials is unrivalled and this is another fine example sporting a four layer dial and very unusual movement.

    WHY I OFTEN DON'T MENTION OTHER BRANDS IN MY VIDEOS.
    You may have noticed that I often don't mention the original brands that watches I am reviewing pay homage to. This is very intentional and not meant to offend you or the original brands. I lost my first channel in October 2020 which I had spent 9 months growing and invested a significant amount of money in simply because I had mentioned the original brands in some of my videos. There are people who try to use UA-cams lack of understanding when it comes to the difference between homage watches and fake watches to attack other channels and their owners and sadly I fell foul of this in 2020. This channel was also attacked recently and UA-cam deleted content simply because I had said 'subby homage' and 'Rolex homage' in two videos despite the watches in the videos being perfectly legal homage watches. Please understand that I can not afford to risk my channel so I will no longer be mentioning other brands when reviewing homage watches.

    I appear to be in the minority here but I think it's quite beautiful and would be like wearing a piece of art on your wrist. Probably only suited to dress watch occasions though. I think that seeing it in the flesh, and appreciating the quality of the work that has gone into making this design, would probably change many people's view of it being tacky. After all, people rushed to buy the Omega Speedmaster because it had Snoopy on the dial, and isn't that pretty tacky for a watch at that price? Sure this one will have a limited market, but I really like the fact that Venezianico are prepared to take chances and produce something different on occasion. And yes, Gary, I do appreciate your shorter reviews. Some reviewers can waffle for up to five minutes before getting around to the watch itself. Your chosen format is just about perfect, as is the photography. Your pronunciation of this brand name does need a little more work though!

  • @Box_13
    @Box_13 2 місяці тому +2

    We have gotten to a point where most people do not need wrist watches. I like the fact that Venezianico
    has leaned into this by creating a piece of art that also tells time. Ciga and OVD are a couple of other
    companies that embrace design over functionality. I think this injects a bit of creativity and passion into
    the watch community.

    Well, I'm in the minority here in so much as I like this watch. Probably because I visited Venice last year and was blown away by it, so I'm more inclined to Venice related things. However, its totally a marmite watch, I get that. But the price makes it more than just a souvenir combining two things I love Venice and watches. Too expensive to be an impulse buy unfortunately.
    By the way, its $700 not €700

    It's more an objet d'art than a watch. I wonder how many times you would wear it with the proper outfit. Sure you will grab the attention of everyone around but not sure for the right reasons. I think I wouldn't like to spend that kind of money to have it set in a display box.

    You really need to put a better thumbnail for these videos, without watchface on it, less people will click on it to watch based only on the title of the video. I know it's your strategy, but I urge you to reconsider.

    All Venezianico's products are deeply correlated to the lagoon territory... If you are not Italian, and even if... not from this region... I'm not surprised you only see a watch... I was a kid with my parents at Redentore celebrations... That gives me a completely different prospective... Be there the celebrations night maybe you will have a different appreciation... If not... Too bad...

    Very reminiscent of Metre D'Art pieces from Vacheron Constantine which coat tens of thousands. I love the piece but it's fundamental flawed. With this type of watch, the movement cannot be ignored. It's just as important as the dial. Such a shame having a closed case back. They could have decorated the movement holder much better and at least the roter should have been custom.
