    That Gucci owner is kinda refreshing. He loves what he wears. Plus his pops knew that he only likes numberless dials. So that's some sentimental value right there. We get a lot of big Japanese and European brands here and there's a good reason why they command respect. I don't care so much for Gucci as a brand. But it's nice to see something different every once in a while. All watches are welcome here. So thank you for featuring the Gucci guy and for making this series so inclusive.

    Honestly, if the water-resistance wasn't so bad, and the weight wasn't too much for my wrist; I'd buy an Omega Constellation (leather strap variation, black dial), and be done with it! Done! But of course nothing is that easy. It's gorgeous, it goes with everything, and it falls short on weight and water-resistance. So in the long run, I'd regret buying it. I wish there was a polished titanium version with at least 10 Bar waster-resistance. But then Omega would likely jack the price up to $10K for such a variation.

    I remember reading an article about the Lange 1 back in the early 90s. It was the first watch they designed after reestablishing the brand 46 years after the eastern part of Germany including the city of Glashütte fell into Russian hands after the end of WWII, and all the watch manufacturers in Glashütte were consolidated into one company that sold watches under the brandname Glashütter Uhrenbetriebe, shortened to GUB.
    It takes a master watchmaker 6 months to build one Lange 1. They were priced considerably cheaper back in the day, though. I think the price was around 35000 Deutschmark, which would be around 18000 Euro today. Great watch, although I prefer the Glashütte Original PanoReserve limited edition in platinum over the Lange 1. It’s more elegant and can be had secondhand for less than half of what the Lange 1 goes for.
    By the way, Glashütte Original is what became of what was left over of GUB, after what became A. Lange & Söhne split off from GUB after Germany reunified.

    • @TheJapaneseFactory
      @TheJapaneseFactory  2 місяці тому +1

      I wouldn’t call Lange & Söhne an underrated brand.(Maybe less known outside the watch comunnity)

      Don't worry, I can't afford a lot of these watches either 😂 but luckily its free to see them on others wrists or at an event or at an AD and to read about them. I haven't seen a VC in person yet but would love to. So the casio was your favourite? :)

      We did capture a wristroll of one GS but he didn't want to be interviewed, we might do a "lost episode" which compiles all of the footage so far that didn't make the cut or wristroll only including that GS. Would this be interesting for you? 😁

      @@TheJapaneseFactorywell you could do one where you telephoto lens what people are wearing and then put he watch model in text. I’ve seen some social media content in which they don’t interview the people and say, what are people wearing to the (fill in the blanks) library or car show or whatever.

      Japan is very strict on fakes, and the authentication and customs staff take their jobs very seriously. That's why Japan has a thriving second hands luxury goods market they seek to protect.
      The fines and jail time though would receive make it very unpalatable to sell fakes in japan.

      why do you think that's a fake? doesn't seem like it. Sometimes you could buy a watch for a few hundred cheaper than market price.

      @ RM is a hyped Franc Muller that athletes, artists and influencer made it popular. Patek and AP carries beautiful materials, I sold my sub, cartier and kept my bb58, seiko and frederiqie constant.

    AP is way overrated. It only has the RO for the past 3 decades. No innovations. Poor customer service. I still don’t understand how it’s part of the holy trinity.
