I think you missed some of the points about that movement. It might be the best that Casio makes. When you select different functions and the hands whizz around to their new locations, it requires special motors. The ones in this model are the best in the business as is the rest of the G-shock movement. Add up all its features, plus its strong and light titanium construction, polished to a high end finish and this watch has a lot going for it. Except for the bracelet. Casio could have made the bracelet much better with sturdier links and an adjustable clasp like I have on my less expensive Citizen dive watches.

I bet you can barely hold it up

Watching in 2025 ..... Best review of this back ,👏🏼👏🏼

For the price of the Traska I'd rather get a Henry Archer, their finishing and dials are on a whole other level.

BladeHQ has the ad20.5 full titanium in 20cv on sale for $312 currently.

Currently looking at a few different colors in January 2025 as I saw one of these bags in an airport store and thought it looked cool. I originally thought the bottom access area was just for extended internal capacity. I saw a blue one on Amazon for $99.95.

First of all, Nick, great video! For some reason months ago I missed a video or something and it (the expletive algorithm) removed your channel from my recommended watching cycle. I like the design of the pens. They do seem very well made and I do like the options although I have always been a clicker and I like the click clack as part of it. Throughout College and most of my adult life I have used a Parker Jotter of various versions (and yes, I still have the 2 that I carried while in college) and in more recent years the Zebra 701 that I converted to Parker/Fisher refills as well as converted from the supposedly all metal that still had the plastic on top to a full Stainless model rather then just buying the newer fully stainless because I'm both a tinkerer and stubborn. While those are nice, and I'm in the market for a metal mechanical pencil, $80 is far to pricey for me as I tend to not be willing to spend more then $30 for a pen/pencil. It's one of the standards I set for myself to prevent me from "over doing it". On the knife, I understand where you are coming from regarding the operation of it. It's a nice knife but wouldn't be much for me either. I carried a Buck Crosslock from 1994 up till 2016 which is a thumb stud type opener. I can't get used to flippers and the like, nor can I seem to get the index finger flick thing going. Thank you for the review of that ring. I started out wearing a Moto 360 2nd Gen smartwatch because I was in IT prior to being put on the disabled list due to the effects of Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis. Once that gave out (I just need to replace the battery but don't have the time or energy to do so), I switched to a Galaxy Watch 4 Classic because I have large wrists and prefer larger metal watches. I did this because while I would like to wear a nice automatic watch, having the notifications and bio data is very handy given my situation. I thought that one of these rings would allow me to wear it and an Auto, but alas it sounds like it's not an option either. I'm not paying for a subscription for something that should just report to an app on my phone or even onto my server PC on my own home network. So again, thank you! While I due currently wear a size 12 on my ring finger, down from a size 15 due to nerve damage and lack of use of that finger much, I probably just stick with the rings I'm making for myself out of Deer Antler, rather then purchase your ring there lol.

Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍

The problem is these movements are disposable and not easy to source even for Breitling. Once they fail, that's it. Breitling might be able to update the movement but that costs more than a decent new watch from another brand. I think quartz in this price range just doesn't make sense.

Talking about things that bring you joy, have you ever come across skill toys from "Aroundsquare"?

I have never seen such a clumsy blogger

The Nick!

Nick you should do a product review about the FISKARS small compact folding keychain scissors✂️

Nick I thought you were mauled by a bear, glad to see you back with another video!

Love this kind of content, almost as much as I love the puns

This format seems like a great idea for a "monthly great stuff" videos. Cheers from 🇵🇭

My endura 4 has a channel the spring fits into. Not a pin.

Nick THANK YOU THANK YOU! I was about to return my endura 4. This really helped. Keeping it now! 0:02

I've really been wanting to pick up an Erebus for a while. I've been trying to cut back on watch buying though (we'll see how long that lasts). Also I feel like something tracking my stress would stress me out.

I’ve been waiting to hear what you think about the oura ring, I was on the fence about getting a pair for the wife and I, guess we’ll wait for the technology to evolve a little hopefully in a subscription free direction. Thanks!

Being a Knife maker I've gotten this often. Usually a woman. I simply ask, do you cook? Do you have a place knife you use to uct fook on your plate? They always say yes, of course, but that is different! I then temm about the law in London where ever a professional chef cannot have a knife in the kitchen with a point as the government deems them far too dangerous for the peasants. Do any of your knives have a point? Well, yes. How can you possibly approach or use them without trembling in fear. Well, I never thought of it in that way. Same story virtually every time usually ending in I never thought of it that way. -----------------------------GRRRRR!!!!! KnifeMaker

Nick, It's simple really. You're looking at knives as simple tools adn tools only. balded tools adn weapons have been made, obtained, cherished and collected as Art and prized possessions for thousands of years. centuries. The can be very high art, status symbol, investments, you name it. Often nothing more than aesthetics that inspoir something within us. They are far more than tools. Why does someone pay 30,000 K for a Loveless Big Bear. A KI-Bar cuts too. These are not hammersor a pair of pliers. They Transcend simple tools for many. Why does one man wear a Rolex when a timex tells time. Why a Ferrari or Lambo when a chevy will get you there. Why do so many women have a closet full of expensive shoes? Why a fine highly collectable painting by one of old masters. A Photo is cleaner. I could go on forever, but either you get it, or you do not. If not, I have NO Idea why you are an influencer on the tube. KnifeMaker/Retired after over 47+ Years in the Craft and in association with the Original R.W.

Hey, do you have any Invicta? I'd like to hear your criticism

Do people use their pocket knives worth over 250$ Knives have become art pieces in reality.

Take a look at Traser watches Nick, with tritium illuminescence.

Nick, Greetings from a Tiny Island in Maine, USA I found this multi item mini review quite interesting. I think myself, and possibly some others, may use this format to help make future decisions. 1 more vote for : Keep ‘em coming 👍

If anyone is curious, the MBK Vierra bit drivers (along with a lot of the other lathe-style products advertised as USA-Made, like the toothpick stash) are made by their friend Daniel Coffey, AKA Black Water Machine Works out of Prunedale, CA. He makes bit drivers out of a lot of really wild and interesting materials, so if brass isn't your cup of tea but you like the rest of the design, go check him out!

Well done, Nick. You ploughed through neatly and I got all the information I needed. It's go9d to mix the format up a bit from time to time.

I do like the gear round up video like this. I hope you do more.

I have that same Traska and it's one of my favorites in my collection!

Hay Nick. I have two of these new Machine-Era pens that I like very much, one Titanium Click and one Titanium Twist with a brass twister. The brass nut on the twist mechanism can be screwed down or up to control how far the refill protrudes out of the pen. So nice.

I kinda like the idea of an occasional round-up of the "B-minus Students". Chipped Gems! Sometimes a generally imperfect piece can be important to know about, because it might be useful but only in certain situations or it might be useful as a beater or a back-up because it's cheap for the purpose or easily acquired in a pinch, etc. There is something to be said for this kind of gear and, if you've the time, you probably have the perspective to judge them!

Great to see another video about anything :)

I was looking at the field pens as well, just have not pulled the trigger. Other pens just don't hit the same way the tiscribe does, so I have been hesitant to purchase more.

Hey Nick, check out Tsao watches. A guy trying to do assembly in Maryland. Some nice designs for a micro brand.

The Shitter watches ... Archie would have a stroke .

Nick, please keep doing this sort of video. It's both helpful and enjoyable.

I wore a Fitbit for years (on my right wrist, left wrist is for the watch collection). I got an Oura v4 for Chrismakah and I really like it. It has never overheated and the battery lasts 7-8 days. I think that Oura has acknowledged issues with epoxy separation in v3 rings. I sized it for my pinky, and it works fine and I only notice it when I'm trying not to scratch one of my good knives (like my new Excaliber :-) ), Be well, Nick,

The Slow Mo Guys just did video super close and slow on an Omega Speedmaster action, pretty cool if you’re in to that sort of thing

no date function. no bueno

Miyota movements are definately NOT ETA clones. These 9015/9039 movements are much newer proprietary designs from the Citizen group and are solid competitors to the ETA/Sellita movements for mid-priced and budget watches.

That stainless steel piece supposed to be there.

thoughts on nextool flagship and sailor mini?

Razor aside sinse i work for TSA how can you not agree that a SHARPE METAL BLADE is not a thing that you can use as a weapon? The review is good.

Got my Arc for 153.00$ from the military AAFES website on a christmas sale.

You have sold me on knives and talked me out of knives. I have enjoyed your perspectives on knives that I don't like and will never buy, because the passion and variety is what makes this hobby so interesting. In a world of increasing commercialism, it's nice to have a few who still maintain their independence and integrity.

Lil Temperance please.

You gotta do this video again in 2025!

I realize this is an older video but how is the tip wiggle?

How much the price
