Peter is a professional photographer, most of the rest of the watch KZbinrs are amateurs in comparison and it shows. Nothing against other watch KZbinrs there are many with great content

This one is a winner! Original in a sea of divers. Brilliant styling and craftsmanship. Yes, I concur on the rubber strap. Overshadows the steel bracelet.

@Jeff-mv4yy Ай бұрын

I love it. Agree with the strap looking better than the bracelet .

Well executed and thorough review. Watch is nice at $600. Too many little faults here and there to justify the high price.

Great to hear YOU enjoyed QLD Peter🦘 Watch head is attractive & I luv the numerals! The price point and ‘status’ is elevated by the Selita, that’s fine… Big date matching the numerals or No date would help. The bracelet could achieve that look but be more slinky, light and chain-like It’s nice, but I haven’t bonded with it

A stunner in both blue and gray. Totally agree wth your comments on the steel strap, the rubber works so well with that case.

Ìts nice to see something a bit different. I like the date window , loom idea. The art deco numerals is a bit of a hard pass on a diver. Maybe on a dress watch it could work well , and the bracelet is nah !!! Some interesting elements but us watch nerds, like certain things , toolish designs especially on a diver . Its not easy doing something different , so they deserve a round of applause for trying, at least . Great vid as always pete .

That lumed date at 4 o clock is brilliant The blue dial design is amazing (I looked on the website) but I don't really care for the 12/3/6/9 markers. I admit its subjective. I would put it on a rubber strap like you did and call it good I don't like the bracelet and honestly think a bracelet on a diver tool watch is a lil silly heh. They have done great work if you like the markers its a slam dunk 👍

The watch is beautiful, but the bracelet could benefit from a little re-engineering, especially the limited bracelet flexibility coming out of the lugs, which for my 6.75in wrist would not fit properly. Price would be ok if the issues noted primarily with the bracelet are addressed. Thank you for sharing Pete.

@severnsea Ай бұрын

The design of the lume on the date window to match the rest of the dial is a beautiful touch and something I've never seen before. Totally disagree about the comments on the date window because you're limited to what you can do with the size of the numerals by the size of the dial. I think it's executed perfectly. I like the art deco styling and it's great to see a unique take on a classic design and it deserves to do well for that reason alone. It's getting harder and harder to find something that's a little bit different that doesn't look out of place and this watch hits the bullseye in that respect. That said it's not my thing and not something I would buy, especially at that price where there is a lot of competition and for me it's overpriced for a microbrand - something we're seeing a lot more of unfortunately - but you could do a lot worse for the money.

@TheTrueHasenfeffer Ай бұрын

Oh, I am not falling for this again, Mr Kotsa. You caught me at a weak moment with Henry Archer. I've spent enough this year. Kidding aside, it's gorgeous. I love the art deco numerals. Also, I love how they integrated the date.

Hey Peter, you « reluctantly had to say no » … you were gutted that you had to say no. But, after watching the entire review, I don’t recall you indicating what made you change your mind? (Or did I misunderstand your statement?) It looks amazing and that micro adjustment seems practical although the gaps look weird BUT I’d live with that if it makes the watch more comfortable on the wrist. But I also agree, I would wear the strap much more. Thanks for sharing my friend 😊👍🏼

@PeterKotsa Ай бұрын

The Kickstarter was successful so because the watch is now available I took it on I had a few issues with kickstarters in the past, non starters and even a fraudulent scenario I was happy this was successful as it gave me a chance to get the watch in 👍

Thanks Peter, that makes sense. I’m happy for them that it was a success. It looks great and seems to be very versatile.

One of the prettiest divers I've ever seen. Personally wouldn't pay that for a base Selitta micro though. If it had been a Miyota 9015 for maybe 700 then I'd probably have to. Not saying it doesn't justify the price from a design and finishing point of view but just too much for me.

I don’t understand why brands make a watch with a date window and then try to hide it or blend it in to the other indicators?

@gnoink Ай бұрын

Sometimes the omission of a date window can look really clean and attractive on a watch because of the visual symmetry. I think that's the illusion they were going for here. They wanted the date window, but visual symmetry was clearly prioritized over utility.

What will I find beyond the 'Event Horizon' ? A remarkable timepiece as soon as you get closer to the singularity of its dial. I share the opinion that the annual calendar remains secondary and not essential. In my usual language : ' Que trouverai-je au-delà de '' l' Horizon des événements'' ? Un garde-temps remarquable dès qu'on se rapproche de la singularité de son cadran. Je partage l'avis que le quantième annuel reste secondaire et non indispensable.'

Lost interest when I saw the price. That's 1300 Euro once import VAT and fees are added. Too expensive for an impulse buy and at that price point there's at least 10 other watches I'd rather buy before that one. It is a nice looking watch, though.
