A Worthy Watch ? The Nordgreen Pioneer

[@ericschneider7648]

Thanks for this review. I purchased one after seeing this and am really happy with it. Quality in person is great for a watch at this price point and the case shape is really well done. Some viewing issues with reflections on the curved sapphire crystal, but nothing really annoying, and the curved shape of the crystal adds a really nice level if refinement. Delivery was 3 days from Denmark to the US.

If I had the Nordgreen again, I would choose the white dial for clarity

[@adilkhan_tolegenov]

@Last Watch thank you for that response! I was contemplating which dial to choose: white or black. Initially, I considered the white ones, but seeing lots of people using black dials I started to ponder.

[@RichardGlasgowBKNY]

That is a sweet piece. Love the whole company concept.

[@thispod]

You are completely right, the minimalism for the minimalism sake puts it straight into fashion watch territory. But I can't deny I appreciate its design and wouldn't mind wearing it to the office daily

[@TonyManero88]

This is exciting! I can’t wait for the results!!

[@SuccessShared]

Great review thanks. No mention of lume and judging from your video it doesn't look like there is any. I think for the price if they'd added an automatic movement, some anti-reflective coating to the sapphire crystal, and decent lume, this would be a good buy....

[@LastWatch]

Those tweaks would certainly make it a better watch

[@terryfenner8142]

Wouldn’t be a watch I would choose but I appreciate the design and attention to detail.. great video as always 😂

[@watchesforpassion]

Yes indeed. I have 2 of thm and very happy

[@jeffsnyder7322]

Not crazy about this particular watch...but I do appreciate your channel...keep up the good work...your vids are very well done!

[@LastWatch]

Thanks Jeff, the benefit of reviewing watches I haven't bought is to look at them objectively

[@kellyoneal1675]

I like this watch.

[@scottvandommelen7911]

You mention “Nomos on a budget” which is exactly what I’m looking for...what watches would you recommend fit that description?

[@LastWatch]

I have another watch for review that might fit your needs, it’s from Lilienthal Berlin, hope to have a review in the next 2 weeks

[@jigggro]

Hi! Do you have the black or navy ? They seem so close.

[@LastWatch]

This was the black dial

[@veeno3983]

How did you turn it on??

[@LastWatch]

are you referring to the chrono hand

[@FitOutPost]

Interesting time piece. I like it. Thanks for sharing.

[@tony5101]

A nice looking timepiece, which seems to be solidly built. It's always going to be difficult for a new company to break into a vastly crowded market, when the sector they've chosen is crammed full of big brands and generic movements. Their charity USP is what sets them apart, but it's it going to be strong enough, for them to be able to carve their niche? Overall, the watch needs to be able to stand the test of time (no pun intended), and be revisited in 6 months or so.

[@LastWatch]

Tony Hill I plan to give this watch away, the new owner will have to give me an update

[@aight365]

@@LastWatch would love to hear an update.. I'm curious if the brands watch models are worth their looks or will the watch stop working after a week or two..

Hands on the navy dial one are difficult to see even in normal lighting conditions

Disappointed to hear that

Thank you for the discount code 👍🏼

[@LastWatch]

It still works ?

[@rucheyujirapure1965]

[@Smoothtlknwhtboi]

Used your code to purchase a Pioneer. Should arrive soon. Thanks.

[@LastWatch]

I’m pleased it’s still working, what colour did you go for

[@Smoothtlknwhtboi]

Deciding on the color took me the longest. I figured I had too many dark watches that I opted for the white in silver stainless.

[@VPCHUA-jz4un]

How much is the watch ? This particular model

[@James-lw3gi]

@@Smoothtlknwhtboi so how did it go? Still using the watch? Happy with the colour?

[@Smoothtlknwhtboi]

@@James-lw3gi yes still happy with the watch. Went for the white dial black strap. It’s not my daily wear but I still break it out

[@Shapeshifter566]

Very nice watch! It would look great with my suits.

[@redshovel]

A very concise and considered review as always. Nice introduction to the brand and I would agree probably not for serious watch people but as you say perfect for a first watch/gift. I know a stack of people who would love the ethos and price point. For me the case design, namely the side aspect is most interesting. I would seriously be tempted with a white dial version, but given my love of bigger watches, it would need to be 44mm at least.

[@LastWatch]

Thanks Phillip, your words are much appreciated

[@Janet_Airlines802]

I really like the look of this watch, very cool.

[@AR-zr1om]

Am I the only person who thinks these are really nice I want the white one with the blue nato strap

[@LastWatch]

A R I think the lighter dials work better than the black

[@JAriC-wo6ok]

Initially, I was excited to recieve my Pioneer watch, but it stopped working in a few months. Very disappointing

Cool man.

[@kuba9897]

Thank you ROBOT.

[@iangraham705]

Just looks a bit....Ali baba, aside from the unusual case design and domed crystal

[@LastWatch]

Ali Baba is Arabic for thief, did you mean Aliexpress

[@iangraham705]

Last Watch there’s an alibaba site too, but Ali express would be same point....

[@MrRCalden]

its the same company isn't it? one for consumer and one for mass production?

[@iangraham705]

Reese Calden that makes sense

[@aight365]

Is the quality there in the watchers there?

[@geordiebatt]

Nordgreen Pioneer sounds like a static caravan.

[@littlelittleforeverythingx4805]

Design of all wathes are impressive but why the company nordgreen not considering to add hybrid watch futures such garmin vivo move, fossil or wethings or skagen watches. Definettly will destroy the market with these uniqe designes…

[@LastWatch]

I think you may be pulling my leg

[@TopJoo7]

Nearly $300 and they can't even include a watch box? Hmm...I'm also not buying the charity angle, after all, I'm looking to buy time.

[@amcluesent]

£100 too pricey. Also the hour hand looks stunted.

[@LastWatch]

amcluesent I think they could have taken the wind turbine reference a bit further with the hands

[@dabboonstra7152]

Nordgreen is not a good idear to buy. It's just a overpriced china watch. And no service when you have a problem. My advise buy a real watch, you can get a much better deal for that price.

Buddy we see how the watch looks. No need to say the bottom is flat, simple elongated stickhands, tip is red.. You're eating our time. Cut to the chase and start talking about what we can't figure out looking at it.

Useless review when you don't show what is inside in terms of the actual guts of the watch..

Very rare to see the movement in a watch review, unless it has a display caseback. I’m a big fan of top gear, I reckon I can count on one hand how many times they’ve lifted the bonnet to look at the engine

no, its not a worthy watch, don't do it fella! your good presentation is wasted on this excrement. ta for the vids
