I love how you handle the absolute bonkers at the top end of high horology, but also touching on the merits of significant micro-brands, and even Timex’s “Q” series… Yours is the best watch channel on KZbin. Period. You cover the entire spectrum, regardless of how thin your budget is, and especially in these post-pandemic financial problems. You treat every piece as desirable, explaining the fine points, bringing us all together, agnostic to budget. Thank you for your breadth of coverage. Your channel is making sure that snobbery isn’t the high wall to climb when getting into watch collecting/passion and mere passion for the craft is the currency of the realm as opposed to a thick budget. ❤️

@OuijTube

I can think of a few reasons. First, there are just so many Rolex copies and fakes, and many of them are poorly executed. Second, most of those copies are of model lines that are still in production with changes perceptible only to super nerds. Third, among non-enthusiasts, Rolex brand ID is enormous-no other maker comes close. So if you turn up in a Rolex “homage,” you’re going to have to explain that you’re NOT trying to wear a fake Rolex. On the other hand, watches like this emulate references that are long since out of production from makers that don’t have the same non-enthusiast reaction. So it’s harder to be accused of trying to fake a watch or get by on another watch’s reputation. Personally I’m sick of the bazillion “homage” submariners. I’m glad that at least a few Chinese makers have moved on to making homages of far earlier references like the “bubble back” oysters of the ‘60s. Rolex isn’t ever going to make those again, and I wouldn’t mind a watch in that style.

@@BryanO92 Nope, it really isn't made to a higher standard, especially if you compare it to a Steinhart. It uses a 30$ mechaquartz movement that's full of dust and has printing issues. (and this is a pre-production review model, it should be made to a higher standard than regular production watches). It's a good watch for 250$ or less, but it's 500$ asking price is shoulder-to-shoulder with the Bulova Lunar Pilot, a watch with a much more impressive mechanism, a much higher build quality standard and one of the coolest legacy stories behind it, as it was the watch that, performance wise, beat the Omega Moonwatch to a pulp. This is a simple homage that looks good from afar, but turns into a flawed mess as soon as you come close to it.

Excellent video. That watch looks especially great here. Mr. Hands critique of the Furlan Marri is, as always, very fair (e.g., the 24 hour subdial). Also like the themes Introduced here: collecting versus ownership; emphasis on externals versus internal specs; and the intangibles of a buying experience. I like this watch. I like Kurono-Tokyo. I like Ming (toothpicks holding my eyelids up from an early alarm today...). For all the reasons Mr. Hands mentioned here, and more.

Personally, I think the 24-hour subdial on the right would be replaced with a running seconds subdial. However, with an underlying quartz movement, it would then show the quartz jumping seconds instead of the 1/6-1/8 seconds of the usual mechanical movement. Other than that, it looks good and priced reasonably.

I don’t mean that in a sarcastic way, but the Havana salmon dial was only made as a Kickstarter campaign, they don’t make them anymore and never will again. This watch was $350 when I ordered it and now I see them go for $3500 on Chrono24. Furlan Mari even told me they are selling for $5000-8000 in the Middle East and have seen one go to auction for over $100,000. Absolutely insane secondary pricing right now.

It's a great looking watch to be sure. But you can thank that to the original designers. It's a decent price but you can thank the Seiko movement and Chinese labour for that. What it lacks, and frankly I'm surprised you neglected to comment on, is the horrible quality control of the dial and anything under it's crystal. Great to have curved hands and lovely colouration of the dial, but if the execution is specks of dust and blobs of paint, what's the point? For $120 Ali Express watch with an N35 auto, we can understand. For $500 Seiko meca-quartz, it should be all about flawless execution, because they sure aren't spending the money on Swiss labour, or an in-house movement.

a good product in my point of view. the details are very interesting and the inspirations are clearly the 40’s vintage chronographs area, it reminds me my M95 movado with Borgel caseback and similar tasti tondi engraved pushers. This is what I love in this new watch.

They're sold out at Furlan Marri. You can buy one for three to four times the list price from a watch market website though. I don't think it's worth it.

I remember before the Kickstarter talking to the owner on IG and the watch was great but never got one and never thought it was gonna be so big! These are selling for two to three times the price in some countries. Congrats to him 🍻

Excellent video with beautiful details. I heard also that engraved pushers like those ones in the video were used by movado by the past during the same period. I see also the roger dubis has similar engraved pushers now. It’s an interesting product.

I have a watch collection and about 20 years ago I got rid of all my battery driven watches except one super slim Tissot dress watch. Replacing dead batteries on a pile of watches is no fun.

Sorry, but for money I would prefer something honest and original in the form of the ‘63 Seagull. A legit column wheel chronograph with actual history and based off a Swiss movement. If I didn’t like the aesthetics then I’d get the same movement but in the panda Lorier Gemini

I looked the watch maker up and it doesn’t appear that they’re still making or selling their knock-off watches. They show sold out on all models and didn’t appear to have anything in the works.

Info' about where these are made states Asia. So, would that be China? I hope purchasers are happy with the finishing on this and when bits start falling off. Put that 500 towards something better would be my advice 🙂

It's a very nice watch, and whether it's worth paying for the retro look is a matter of choice. Today I just got another quartz chronograph, a JDM Orient with the traditional panda dial 3 black subdials, different enough not to be a knock-off from the well known one, that's more original than this. If you like the look of this however it's definitely worth considering. But if Mr. Furlan has such a great background in design, why did he just photocopy a Patek Philippe?
