How were you able to miss: Muji 0.38 mm Muji 0.50 mm Pilot GTEC C4 0.40 mm Pilot Metropolitan with EF nib Make yourself a favour and ONLY purchase japanese writing products. Everything is garbage compared to them. It doesn't have to be expensive, it just needs to work accordingly to your writing style.

Marcus O’Brien used the same tech and has a studio like me? My last name is O’Brien. Let’s create brother!

Thanks for this review. I bought one based on it, and I'm enjoying it. Did you do a post-one-year follow-up review?

Odd question, but what frames are you wearing in this video?

For me it is: Budget = Uni One or Uni One P, 0.4mm blue or black ink, Pilor Juice Up in any color, 0.4mm, classic range are great, Zebra Sarasa Classic 0.5 in their classic blue or camel; Mid-Range: Kaweco Skyline/Classic Sport Fountain Pen, EF or F, Kaweco Sport Roller, with a OHTO flash-dry gel refill available from Jetpens, Kaweco Sport Ballpoint with OHTO D1 needlepoint ballpoint in blue, Sailor Lecoule, F, Sailor Compass, F; Higher range: Kaweco AL, AC, Art Sport, EF, Kaweco AL, AC Sport Gel Roller with OHTO flash dry gel, 0.5 (wish they made it with blue ink, black is so boring at least blue gives a pop of some color, Kaweco AL, AC Sport Ballpoint with blue OHTO needlepoint D1 ballpoint refill, available from Jetpens; as high of an end as I have would be a Sailor Pro Gear Slim, EF. I have the full sized version, but I write with the smaller Pro Gear Slim much more often. Pencils: Budget: Uni Kuru Toga 0.3mm alpha gel I purchased from Bungu, Uni Kuru Toga Advance 0.3mm or 0.5mm, depending on if I am using my Hobonichi Techo Weeks, I always use a 0.3mm otherwise, I travel with the 0.5mm, Mid Range: Uni Kuru Toga Dive 0.5mm and I have the orange color in this pencil and I use it more than any other. I deeply wish Uni would make a 0.3mm Kuru Toga Dive, but I think I may be one of the hand full of people who would want that. For premium, I have several Yard-o-Led vintage pencils, the rolled gold is always in my motorcycle jacket with my Rite-In-The-Rain pocket (glued) notebook in safety orange. Thank you for your video. I really do not like rollerball pens. Give me the Uni One, Juice Up or a fountain pen. Don't forget, pencil is archival and if you don't erase, and do strike-throughs, it would stand scientific scrutiny, but auitors would totally disagree with me. Still, pencil written notebook survived being under the ocean with the Titanic, so it is good enough for me. For me Tombow and Uni (Mitsubishi) make the best woodcase pencils. I usually go with a 2B and get them from Jetpens or Etsy.

hey, would love to send you some gear to review....let me know!

When putting on the hand set, I would have kept the crown in the time-setting position so you could align them all at the 12 without them ticking away out from under you like we saw with the seconds hand.

I bought a Parker Jotter yesterday and the blue ink is already having a hard time coming out of the pen.. wtf

Thats really nice!

Could you link me to the watch case with a glass back? Would love to try that case

to build my dream watch, I need to get hired by Omega so I can make the modern Seamaster 300 165.024

Growing up my two children were really into horses, each having to have their very own. They enjoyed training, riding and showing the critters, while I spent a small fortune on barn space, farrier and vet fees, tack, and the list of expenses goes on and on! They rode the horses and I seemed to be the one left to clean up after them, hauled them around to training activities and shows, was kicked twice, bit once and showed up at work on occasion, smelling of the barn. These days the girls have grown up, married, and have raised or are raising their own kids (our Grandkids), four of whom are college age. Honestly, the kids and grandkids have proven to be the premium influences in my life, but I must admit, since getting away from owning and supporting the horses I have been spending an embarrassing amount of money on expensive shoes and wallets...not just any shoes and wallets, but Shell Cordovan shoes and wallets. Looking back, I fear there may be a significant influence of "payback" in play here for all the time I spent shoveling up after, getting bit and stepped on by and financially supporting those horses all those past years! LOL.

Looks good - how or where can I find out which components go together?

How do you know when buying pieces that they will fit all together?

Hey, Really satisfying video. Do you know if we can do that with a quartz movement?

My wife is totally blind and uses Assistive Technology to do typical task like read the mail. Search the Internet to read documents to have things describe to her that's in front of her and she does this mostly with the iPhone so I bought her a pair of these Ray bands , and it basically replaced her iPhone being her eyes. These glasses can be used on bifocals or progressive lenses or any color of sunglass lenses. These Ray-Ban glasses even have an AI to assist. simple to use, better than Orcam. These Ray-Ban glasses work so well I'm gonna get myself my own pair of them.. These classes will be a game changer, from visually impaired to low vision to no vision or even with vision, they're truly impressive. I bought my wife pair of Ray-Ban meta-smart glasses at LensCrafters and the best thing about it considering that any Assistive Technology for the visually impaired is That Assistive Technology is very very and I mean very expensive. These were under 400 bucks and they work better than the expensive stuff.

I edc a Leatherman sideclip.

Finally, someone using ‘fewer’ correctly instead of ‘less’! 🙏

how can i find the correct parts for my dream watch (suiting hands etc.) ?

I dono id fear brain tumors They look great on ya tho! Look natural on ya

in the late 90's I lost a two pen pouch. a few days later, I remember leaving it in a stationery store. Of course, when I went back, no one had seen it. It had a Parker sonnet and .... a Shaeffer Legacy with STUB nib.

I've been chasing the dragon for 30 years. I'm about to liquidate my collection down to the 6 or 7 I could never bear to part with. If I had to choose one pen to rule them all, it would have to be a current production pen (otherwise I won't want to take it out of the house). and something so wonderful yet rugged that I would never have to worry about damage. The Gravitas Ultemate Vac

Hey, I love the videos. If you ever want to get a gameboy and have it renewed or modded for only the cost of the gameboy and parts. id be willing to help out. if not thats okay thought id offer my services. hope you have an amazing day

It could get really expensive if you use quality parts. Aliexpress has a lot of cheap parts. If you go for a genuine Seiko dial could easily go for 100 usd just the dial. Quality parts from Namoki mods, Watch-Modz, Watch&Style, Cristal Times, etc. Will build a high quality build.

Finally a man that can take something as simple as a pen and make something truly exciting and meaningful out of it! I’ve collected and enjoyed pens (and pencils) since I was a young kid and started writing and using with the Bic Crystal and now have several hundred pens including the Mont Blanque you mentioned. My grandparents came from Poland and brought Polish fountain pens with them but alas as time went on and they passed away the pens mysteriously disappeared……would have loved to have been able to have these pens today! Really enjoy your video and will be looking for some of the pens you mentioned! Do kids today appreciate the beauty of a fine writing instrument; do kids today even know how to write……unfortunately I know some who don’t 😮! Again, many thanks for sharing your thoughts on something I thought no one else but me would appreciate or give a hoot about 😊! Be safe!

I dont get it. so its just a camera that records 60second vids and takes photos. No thanks. Waste of money.

The controversial part that you referred to is the one that makes more sense actually 😉

I carried the Midnight Manager for many years but have switched to the Swisscard Nailcare plus the Bantam Alox. For air travel I can just leave the Bantam at home or put it in my checked luggage. I always felt the blade on the small Victorinoxes was a bit too small and the size of the Bantam is perfect. The Swisscard includes a magnifying glass which I find very useful, a pin, the standalone scissors which I find easier to use and a glass nail file which does a better job than the metal one. I never use the Victorinox toothpick as a toothpick but find it useful for other things, pushing in small buttons, prying out small parts, etc. If you did want to use it as a toothpick you could carry some small alcohol wipes with you and clean it before putting it away.

how do you get the watch to work? i can see at the end it's stopped ticking.

These glasses access when I take a photo or can these glasses take a photo and then the photo goes to my photos on my iPhone

To retrieve from paper notes - for work I use a notebook from which I can tear out the pages and in the iPad calendar and notes and reminders I can track and plan follow ups. I can't do notes on the iPad....but I agree the lag is absolutely critical and Apple does have it right. G

mate..a whoop,apple watch and an oura ring? what’s your mission?🫨

a really good video thanks a lot honestly

The Uniball Jetstream RT in 0.7 mm is the best overall/general purpose pen in my opinion. Writes very smoothly with dark, crisp lines. The ink bonds with the paper to prevent smudging and bleaching/fraud. I prefer writing with the Jetstream over my S.T. Dupont and Montblanc, each of which cost me hundreds of dollars. I'm looking for a way to install the Jetstream refill in my high-end pens - it's that good.

Love the video thanks for uploading, just one minor critique please do a final closeup of the final product. 😊👍

I'm looking for that Montblanc Meisterstück Le Petit Prince but it is not listed on the Montblanc website. eBay doesn't show them very well. Can you please measure the total length of it and let me know so I can approximate that size from their store? I had a Mozart but the clip broke and Montblanc would not cover it and also wanted to charge me almost $40.00 in shipping back to me so I let them keep it. Terrible company here in the USA. Taken over by incompetence like most other companies in the USA today. I'd like something slightly smaller than my current Le Grand Rollerball. That pen size looks perfect. Thanks!

Camer out of focus man 🥴🥲

Submariner date market price is around 12 K

So basically if you walk by me and I knock that shit off your face for recording me don't sue me. Ppl are freaking lazy af now. Yall want crap like that instead of learning a trade. We live in a age of consumption that makes ppl go into debt for the Trash your endorsing. That's violation of ppls privacy like a guy taken pics of a ladies upskirt pics.

Great video Marcus! Subscribed! Having recently had a kid it's been much harder to travel so minimally, but I've found a sling like yours and then a 10L backpack for the kiddos stuff fits nicely under the seats, and they always let the 10L slide as a purse. Fit's my full size iPad perfectly as well. Also, try an altoids tin for your first aid kit. I have them stashed all over, and always have a couple in our luggage when we travel. Cheers!

Interested to see if anyone actually used this video as a guide? I think it would be fun to do this as a bonding project with my 3 brothers-in-law over the 4th of July weekend. It would have to be simple enough that we could kind of bulk order some parts and all put it together, together. Also, great channel. Been following for a few months and I’ve already made purchases based on recommendations

Bro you lost a ton of weight since this video wow congrats

Where signal?

My leatherman Freestyles are still my favorite. Simple and similar to the first without the bottle opener that takes up more space. Just got the Olight multi tool that’s awesome. Looking at the ARC but it’s divisive out there on it. I’ve never had a larger one. I can get 30% off which makes it a bit nicer due to line of work discounts.

Boa tarde sou do Brasil… seus vídeos me motivam a montar um relógio pra mim ,pois os relógios estão tão caros que não anda compensando pra gente aqui do Brasil comprar grandes marcas

as a gen z myself, in the same spot as you are btw, born in the 1998 i'm basically between the millenials and the gen z i managed to see a lot of old tech as a child, but for a really short amount of time, cassettes are the one i experienced the less, VHS stuck much more because all my cartoons were there, but cd players were on their best moments, mp3 were still not a thing for a long time unless you were really wealthy, so ipod were a thing, but i aswell even if younger got back using old tech. outside of my passion of photography, so full of REALLY old cameras, pre war ones and all, i went and took an old Ipod Mini from 2005 and made that my own music player, sure it's not the same as listening to cd or cassettes cause it's still more modern (i do actually have a ton of music tapes now btw because i fell in the rabbit hole of that format of music) i still have to rip the CDs and own the music myself, prepare playlists if i wanna use them or listen to the albums, and even if it's completely digital, having a dedicated music device in general has been incredibly different than just putting up spotify, i unsubscribed from it, luckly both me and my family we all kept all the CDs we used to listen so i have a TON of music to get back to. plus i'm a lot into modding, and you have no idea how much stuff you can do with old tech, my ipod mini i upgraded the memory from just 4 gb to 256 GB. that's the only thing i did, so i can keep better quality files on it

I like the idea of a minimalist sling bag and all the tiny goodies. I assume you travel with a camera (or two). Are you checking those in your luggage? Always using overhead storage for a roll-on? If you’re packing camera gear in a roll-on and the bins are full and they gate-check you or you have to check baggage are you trusting camera gear to the baggage compartment? Yikes. That’s a big reason I need a larger backpack as carry-on, I want camera gear with me and possibly a sweater. That sling is cool but too tiny.

one budget friendly fountain pen is Twsbi. I have the diamond and omg it is incredible and doesnt hurt the wallet. If you havent tried it, defintely must must try.

I liked, subscribed and belled. LOVE the way this guy thinks. Deep and Analytical about any subject he undertakes.

Personally, I think if they shrink the P4 or P2, they’d be on to something that could compete with the SOG Powerpint. I love the Powerpint, I use it way more than I ever did my Juice models and I LOVE my Juice’s. I just think the P4 and P2, with the magnets and ease of opening would be very nice in Juice or Powerpint size. Shrinking the Wave would interesting, but I think the P4/P2 platform lends itself to shrinkage just a little bit better. Great video.
