I’m impressed by that bracelet also!! 😲 This is a simple design with good lume and great looking watch! Thanks for sharing!!

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Thank you very much! ... Sometimes a simple design is the most complex :D ... thanks for watching! :))

[@minitwatch]

You're welcome!

[@matthewdavis8199]

Love the diagonally brushed gradient sandwich dial!

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Happy you like it! - It really plays with the light! :D

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Thank you so much man! this review made me laugh, cry and everything in between! ... THANK YOU! :D

[@minitwatch]

No problemo :)

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

@Patrick Hudson Thank you very much for the kind words! - believe it or not, but a message like that really warms my heart and makes it all worth it! thank you so very very much for taking the time :D

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

@Patrick Hudson Hi man! ... Well we're launching mid April - and the bracelet for the two tone is the same as for the steel, but that's the benefit with a two-tone case, it goes great on everything! :D - And thank you so much for your kind words! :)

[@peterstone9705]

Great review Curt, the more you look at the dial the more it grows on you ! 👍🇬🇧

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

I am happy you feel that way! I made it so it should feeling "fresh" forever :D

[@minitwatch]

It's pretty cool. I think I might like the brown version too. It reminds me of a guitar!

[@michaelford4460]

Hi Curt Realy good video and thank you for the super Minit Watch stickers.

[@minitwatch]

You're welcome! I'm glad you got them! Cheers!

[@islandterror5198]

Nice review from everyone's favorite KZbinr & good luck with the Campaign ! Yeah , your MIA Packages surely went coastal . ✌️🥂

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Thank you ! :D

[@minitwatch]

Thanks, man! Yeah... no changes yet. I want my golden timex!!

[@wpherigo1]

Best reviews! Nobody’s got anything as creative as “Check the Lume”, and the boys. (Living on an island, you probably get a lot of stuff by boat.)

[@minitwatch]

Thank you :) I keep trying to make another lume song but nothing is as good hah! Believe it or not, I personally haven't gotten anything by boat in years!

[@indaleciomendez8442]

Great review Curt... that dial is awesome then the switch from strap to bracelet just made it look awesome in a whole new level. Keep up the good work 👏

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Thank you! :D

[@charliebrewer617]

Good review, I’m impressed with that watch. The dial is really great and having drilled lugs, and coming with quick release straps adds a lot to the value of the watch. Don’t forget the size for of 6.5 inchers hits a sweet spot for a lot of us. I will look into that watch, it style I like.

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Thank you kindly for the feedback Charlie! :D ... I hope you'll follow along!

[@minitwatch]

Check out the brown version as well. I dig it's Fender-esque style!

[@finster444k]

The swap from strap to bracelet was shocking. Very beautiful watch.

[@minitwatch]

Right? I was shocked!

[@ZackMorris1]

Nice review Curt! If priced appropriately this watch could be a nice alternative to something like an Orient. Nice build quality and nice straps. Pumped to hear about your trip. Feels like the world is finally opening back up. Can't wait. Be good bro!

[@minitwatch]

I hope the word does fully open up soon. I have to be all sorts of careful on this trip or I'll have to quarantine for two weeks when I get back! :p It's shaping up to be a grand adventure!

[@MammothBehemoth]

Hahaha...nothing like exploring the Pacific like something from Denmark Good one! Probably not a joke a lot would catch in a flash

[@minitwatch]

Nope :p

[@peternic1]

"Going coastal??" Hahahaha!! That's why I love Ted.

[@ianmasterton6948]

Great review. Boy, that map! There's only one 'e' in Caribbean...

[@simonwright6882]

Hey curt, you're right it worked on the bracelet and for some reason looks better on wrist than off? The bracelet/strap situation can make all the difference. I found that out recently when I took the bracelet off my bb58 and tried it on single pass nato and leather. It has now become a watch i can't take off, or not until I go to work.

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

I hope it works great on the hand as well - it's a flat jubilee-style, so it's tried and testet - it soooo comfy if you ask me (and my 7.5 inch wrist) - and I'm not a bracelet guy to be honest, but I like this on the wrist! :)

[@minitwatch]

I love it when a simple change makes a dramatic difference. I like to look for that in all of life. Cheers, Simon!

[@brettwilliams657]

Quality looks so good.

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Thank you so much Brett! :D

[@minitwatch]

Seems good!

[@JasonTheWatchGuy]

Love that dial, almost like a brushed effect to it!

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Thank you sir! ... It is brushed, so the colors (or grey in this case) gets reflected in some angles :)))

[@JasonTheWatchGuy]

There's something for everybody! ... The "standard" leather strap is a calf strap (more regular) - but I agree, the flat-link jubilee style bracelet is super comfy! :D

[@zulu6ix290]

@@coastwatchcompany9078 you guys nailed it here with so many aspects of design mixture and size, plus no date!!! Very cool.

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

@@zulu6ix290 Thank you! ... The goal I set when I started 3 years ago was to create something that would 'rival' the classics in the game, something that could be used, abused and still look good to a dinner party ... and I've went all in with ceramic ball bearings on the bezels and thick crowntubes to make it a solid and rugged watch that can live forever with some care :)

[@ronin7106]

Wished the second had a some lime on it as well. Awesome looking 39er!

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

It will have for production :D

[@PheasantPluckersMate]

[@PheasantPluckersMate]

@@minitwatch Ha! Old presentation rule: It is better to say one thing three times, than three things once😎

[@pipczar]

I have been less impressed with the flooded market of microbrands, but this one looks great. And the bracelet is straight off a Tudor Tiger Prince. I can attest, some of the most comfortable bracelets ever. Thanks for the video, I love your content. Did I miss what they are pricing these at?

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Thank you so much for the feedback - and yeah, I hope I can challenge the market a bit, I've used 3 years doing my best to perfect this, I didn't wanna rush it and believe it or not, making a classic/simple watch that isn't a replica of some sort is so hard! but I wanted this to be a "cornerstone" of the brand :) - Also for the pricing, the pre-order is being done in Danish kroner (thank you KS) so I can't reveal the exact price before we launch, but depending on the package (there will be multiple) it will start around 500-550- usd. (ish) ... I will ofc. reveal everything shortly and also! I have already started production, so the delivery time (even though it's a pre-order) will be around 2 months... so I'm pretty proud of that :D and thanks for the feedback man! means a lot! :)

[@minitwatch]

Thanks, Blake! I appreciate it :)

[@mr22guy]

It looked kinda boring at first but after a minute I started loving it. Then you said the same thing! So I guess this one is truly a minitwatch?

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Thank you very much! - yeah, it is hard to create something classic without it being a little less "fun" at first - but I aimed to make a watch that would feel better and better over time, not be a novelty :) - But that said, the blue, brown and even the (maybe coming) green are all a bit more 'fun' if that's your cup of tea! :D

[@minitwatch]

Indeed! I wish I had one haha!

[@Villajesse]

I kinda miss minit watch intro. The steel bracelet made the huge difference . I really enjoy your reviews!

[@minitwatch]

I like to keep that one fresh :) Thanks, Jesse! I appreciate it!

[@jankay8569]

wow it does look so much better with the bracelet and im not even a bracelet guy

[@VinceDae]

I really like it on the strap, but also the bracelet and I’m normally a bracelet man 😂

[@minitwatch]

It was the first time I've been truly amazed by putting a bracelet ON!

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Happy you liked it on the bracelet! :D

[@blindriv3r]

Very nice watch and great review...and Denmark was big in the Pacific back in Colonial times wasn't it?....The Dutch East Indies? etc...

[@minitwatch]

Thank you! And Indeed!

[@mr22guy]

Dutch means from Holland (aka Netherlands). Things from Denmark are Danish. :) I don't think Denmark had any colonies in the Pacific. There is one Danish explorer associated with the Pacific - Bering, but he worked for the Russian Navy!

[@luisme20]

Nice looking watch!

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Thank you! :D

[@minitwatch]

Indeed! I was totally changed when I saw it on the bracelet!

[@mariog7213]

Ty has been posting images of the watch on the microbrand group in Facebook and I’ve been looking forward to watching a review on it. It’s a pretty bad ass watch. Did you mention the price though?

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Hi Mario! ... Thanks for the comment! :D ... No the price haven't been announced yet do to KS only letting me use Danish Kr. so we need to be a little closer to the launch before I can do the conversion :) ... We aim to launch 13 april (or close to that week) :)

[@ageary]

Great watches

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

Totally agree! :D

[@patrickmorrissey2271]

I agree, it needs to be on the bracelet.....

It looks good 👍 But the crown.. To big, I just know that it's gonna dig a hole in my hand..

[@coastwatchcompany9078]

I promise you it wont (unless you make handstands 80 times a day and wear it below the bone "closest to the hand" ) - I have made it so the case wont turn it down against your wrist ... this is a 3 year in the making watch and it's been 7 different cases, just to get everything fit right... :)

Hi Ted! ... thanks for the comment! ... to each their own and luckily that goes for most things in life! - I'm personally a leather man myself! :D ... but I'm happy you liked the bracelet! :D

[@frankquarters]

Perfection takes time, but first impressions last forever. This is a failed company, and they've taken the hard earned money from hundreds of willing customers who've yet to receive what was promised more than a year ago. It's reviews such as this one which helped promote them and it would be nice to have an update to the status of what happened. The company, Tyler, offers no updates or explanations. Sad.

[@Wonky-Donkey]

You can't have brushed Bezos on your watch. Bezos is bald.

Hmmmm. Must have polished Bezos! I think that might be...prime!
