Testing the Prototype ICE AGE Watch!

[@tattooyu]

I am not a watchmaker or even hobbyist, but somehow I've landed on watching your videos that I find so satisfying. Your wry sense of humor and humility are a much needed respite from the negativity that we are bombarded with 24/7 by the regular media. Much love to you and your family.

[@jamesdownes1974]

I love what you say and how you say it - I could listen to you for hours! This is a lovely video.

[@damnAmsterdammer]

That watch is almost a "wow" watch. Thanks for the review. I hadn't seen this watch before. Now my daughters wants one. Thanks Nekkid.

[@showmeyourkitties]

She ain't getting one after you see the price. 😬

[@mb8kr]

Grote gelijk heeft u meneer amsterdamn 😁👍

[@nevamind68t23]

Doh! 🤣

[@tredici72]

Shame they didn’t include a faux polar bear fur strap

[@scofab]

LOL... or white faux seal skin. "Nanook... my favorite baby seal..." (Frank Zappa reference).

[@-Astro--]

😂

[@mlutescu]

a like from me - not for the watch, but for your sense of humor.

[@yeahweburnstuff]

You are incredible! I'm not a watch geek but your presentation style is endearing and amusing. Cheers!

[@skeelo69]

That's the Accountant's forever watch 😂😂😂

[@user-nj8tz5en7k]

Flat Earth with ice wall WOW!

[@Frooderick]

I feel like wearing one of those with an all-white suit, shirt, tie, shoes, and socks would make you look like a Bond villain. Add a Panama hat and you’d look like a pimp. It’s perfect: taking-over-the-world vibes during the week, and party-time on the weekends. Win-win!

[@dodgydruid]

Well if you are bored you could point out womens feet are smaller so they can get closer to the sink... that one is always a winner ;)

[@snig88]

How anyone can find these watches beautiful is beyond me!

[@cheryl8386]

It's a fun piece

[@dinemarj459]

Ahhhhhh😂. When you know you know! When you don't you don't! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 The feeling is the same to a tesla...... Where is is the beauty to behold 👀👀🙄but sales high 😅 go figure 😂

[@dylldobaggins4594]

They’re hideous. Look like something a kid would wear (and break in five minutes).

[@soldtobediers]

''She is a poem written in the most beautiful body language.'' ~Saul Bellow

[@peterjensen6233]

That’s a very good looking watch that I can’t quite tell the time with. Certainly a nice change from the ordinary.

[@Kamerian]

In today's volatile climate, maybe they should consider making a post-apocalypse version for the series?

[@domfel2123]

Advertisement? The watch is thick and ugly, why bother?

[@ianide2480]

I thought the same thing.

[@davidm106]

I love how your close-ups not only show beauty, they also show tiny imperfections.

[@ThePaulv12]

The greenwashing not withstanding, this would be the type of accessory one could wear when taking out their Mitsuoka Le-Seyde for a spin in the Soho area on a warm summer's evening. An overweight late middle aged white man with a comb over and short pant Safari suit with white socks and sandals (to complete the picture) would be the natural home for this award winning masterpiece of horology.

[@jwags24]

I don’t care if it’s “ladies.” I’d rock this all day!

[@dinemarj459]

😂😂😂Thanks for your humorous commentary! 😂 I always look forward to seeing a new video from you laughing hilariously at your comedy voice over speaking to your self 😂😂😂😂and Trouble coming in to "help" you 😂😂😂 Really appreciate your time and effort in bringing to us these videos of watch restoration/repair or review.👍👍👍👍👍 Nice to have free entertainment too with Nekkid Watch comedy 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Keep up the great work!

[@bullnose01]

Bravo, Joe, bravo. The watch is fine, but the review is great. You must be accumulating a nice collection of watch modeling sleeves.

[@saudade369]

I am a ceramicist / sculptor , specializing in figurative ceramics . While I use high fired materials I’ve never fired as high as the numbers in Celsius you mention , normally firing my kiln only as high as 1240c , or if using porcelain which fires to 1300c and is I’m sure you know is a very hard , but brittle , pure translucent white naturally but can be coloured with metallic salts and glazes . Ceramics arent typically fired over 1300c which is a high temperature for ceramics. The new ceramic materials however I assume are more newly developed , space age , industrial types which have been created to cope with such extreme high and low variations in temperature . They would be incredibly hard and durable and capable of withstanding far more than other materials . Hence the beginning of it in industry and using ceramic bearings, often being used as the bearings in racing bikes . It’s not much I know but it’s a different area of hi tech ceramics and science to my own area of expertise in the arts , but I hope it helps in a small way .the fact it’s used in watch design is amazing . It would be fascinating to learn how it is crafted

[@soundmindtv2911]

"Love handles" 🤣

[@JWnFlorida]

Beautiful dial. Beautiful packaging. Great video.

[@jeanvictory1897]

And by the way, how do you read the time on this watch??

[@showmeyourkitties]

He said you don't. 😹😹

[@user-br7qw8ql1o]

in my country (india) its sold as a unisex watch. You can wear it (all wrist watches are women's watch). It does look good on ur wrist.

[@marekjemala7363]

These would be very difficult to sell without that promotion.

[@kukaliemikalie8157]

4:24 It just means the watch won't combust into flames when a Balrog of Morgoth keeps his breath under 1800°c. I imagine Gandalf the white was provided with this watch after his encounter with Durin's bane.

[@jonathanberwick4473]

Whether you have had your pinion removed or not or never had a pinion at all i think this is a really good looking design for all pinions

[@MyBlueZed]

1:00 I know that hand! It was in the fall 1973 Bulova watch catalogue. You’re J.P. Prewitt … the world’s greatest hand model!

[@avasgranb1]

That box blurb…oh brother!😅😂

[@st3althyone]

Not my cup of tea, but your content is always welcome. Thanks for always keeping an open mind.😊

[@beforefive1550]

I absolutely love this watch with the ceramic band. I am a lady, and for the first time, I like the world timer. Do you know if it comes in multiple sizes?

[@ikennanw]

Such a satisfying video. Gorgeous watch

[@rodk886]

Not my accountants style but it’s a very big world, and that’s why ice cream comes in so many flavors

[@koosb8162]

Good work fullah! ✌

[@truthserum9157]

If you hold it up to the night sky you’ll notice it matches 1/3 of the shadows on the moon.

[@Chef-vg4pu]

That was absolutely beautiful, your way with words is amazing. But how do you tell time on that thing?

[@dmitrytikhonov9519]

Watchmaker says that reading the time doesn't matter. OMG. They suggest spending USD1,5K and having troubles to understand what time is it now. Are they kidding?

[@timstoffel4799]

A watch my sister might like. She always liked big watches. When she was a child, she had a men's size watch mounted on a wide leather strap. My mother constantly gave her grief about it, calling it a 'well driller's watch' ;)

[@joelfildes5544]

Next level…I thank you.xx

[@kenabi]

interesting, but ultimately, no. my daily driver is a stainless with a mostly sterile AF black dial with blue lumen chrome outline indices, and matching hands. very little in the way of markings, and nothing over the top. subtle, classy, useful.

[@dales6940]

Joe we appreciate the gift of your time to educate and entertain us. We are very grateful.

[@otto16121970]

With this watch…: flat earth confirmed. 😂

[@roberttradd1224]

You really need to come across the pond and become our next president Please

[@jameswest685]

Professional hand model? Your going to break the bank.

[@R2robot]

I would never have considered owning a watch like this... until now. lol

[@davidreed3359]

I hope other companies are watching and follow Cigas lead. You're a great craftsman with a fantastic style. Cheers!

[@bent540]

yeah all watches should like like cheap plastic right! lol gtfo!

[@DarrellBeckford]

@@bent540 Words are hard...for you!

[@briantalley8415]

Maybe it looks better in real life? That's not for me. Or my wife.

[@donnyboon2896]

I think it is one of Jupiter's moons.

[@glennpearce7093]

Great presentation as always mr nekked no wonder thy want you to do another one ☝️ wow I love this watch 😊

[@KEEPINGitREAL213]

Beautiful piece! I have a couple of Ciga Design pieces and they're really good watches.

[@tibortatrai2318]

Wish they made 38-40mm versions of these watches.

[@gaz-gemw5801]

Where are you Nekkid ??? really miss your videos,take care.😊😊😊😊😊😊😊👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻

[@ian_simbotin]

Bloody hell, mate. You should really do some narration work on documentaries and such, and maybe audio books. I know, I know, your time is best spent restoring watches, but your warm voice reminds me of the actor who spoke the words of environmentalis John Muir on Ken Burn's documentary on America's national parks; his name is Lee Stetson.

[@marjon1703]

I wish all adverts were this good! Charmed and enjoyed :)

[@raymond7880]

They really go to town (or Arctic) with the packaging.

[@Mmmyess]

Beautiful henna!

[@janeteholmes]

Love it. If I didn’t wear a smart watch I might be planning a campaign for Xmas.

[@martinlouden9005]

Ooh Joe. I can't share your enthusiasm for this watch. I think it's hideous.

[@robertbradford3461]

So how much is this beauty, I know the old saying, if I have to ask it's to much, but I can't see it costing more than a couple hundred bucks

[@MF-jo6jt]

Hmmmm 🤔 if the accountant can wear that much gold then you are entitled to get some extra toys

[@mikebruegger8654]

Great work! I would prefer the deep blue model with silver case and avoid the metrosexual one for sure. It should however have a choice on which side of the planet is exhibited.....

[@KLAUSKARES]

I got goosebumps as you where reading 😮 wow!You have so many talents and doing reviews is one of them❤Amazing watch and none can do it justice as you sir👏👏

[@EnlightnMe48]

You need another torture session--I mean arm hair waxing.😂

[@stefanluciw8023]

Looks like a two bob lucky bag toy watch from Woolies..

[@carlosruedagarza4771]

I watch all your videos and I like them a lot I live in Tijuana Baja California Mexico greetings a big hug from a distance

[@toddyrocks]

Nice .. but wheres New Zealand ?

[@joekanicki5306]

Beautiful video Joe! Thoroughly enjoyed that one. Peace ☮️

[@martinlatvian5538]

Ceramic case and bracelet feels good un wrist. A watch case made from stone would be cool. Agate, Onyx, Basalt, Quartz, Jade etc. It would be heavy, but unique.

[@Kamerian]

Original Grain and Holzkern both make very nice looking watches using these materials. O.G. is a U.S. company and Holzkern is based in Austria.

[@tristanbarbour9769]

Hi can you tell me where you learned your trade? Are there course you would recommend?

[@jeff1176]

I'd like one of all three just for their quirkiness. It would be great if they offered one for the western half of the planet as well.

[@helmutno8387]

Yeah, but the shape of the Earth is flat, Ulysse Nardin know‘s it very well

[@kevinmilley7541]

Nice sell Joe...Now Ciga send one too all the Nekkid ladies and hell, one for trouble also...Personally I do not like the watch, but Mr. Joe has made sales climb, aint he, the man could sell Ice to eskimo's I should know as I bought some...:)

[@shaggy791]

This look pales in comparison to the original blue planet. That watch is just absolutely gorgeous. And the gilded version is nice too. I’m just not really feeling this one.

[@billcodey1430]

How do I tell the time?

[@carlosbovia6813]

Lovely piece of design, love the ceramic case, to me, the whole thing is a conceptual watch... Nice vid my friend... Gretings from Cancún, México, Earth....

[@1967250s]

1800 degrees? That is the melting point of aluminum. Well beyuond what the human body can withstand! So, if the watch is in a fire, it will likely survive, but the wearer?

[@experienceprecision5406]

This screams for a pocket watch lanyard set up

[@andrewcastellane7802]

I would not take this watch even if they paid me to wear it!, its more like piece of jewelry than a timepiece.

[@ActanonVerba.308]

When the packeging is better than the watch ..............

[@jonbee3596]

Mate. Love the vids and I don’t even wear a watch. Cheers

[@BigBoyLies]

i think that watch would look good on man's wrist if it is paired with a dark colored strap

[@theoneandonlyowl3764]

Lovely watch, but I'm not sure how to tell the time on it. I like hands that I can give a quick glance, and know. Good video, as always.

[@TheUncleRuckus]

Looks like Mrs Nekkid or young Miss Nekkid will have themselves a nice watch for an upcoming holiday. 😂👍👍

[@adrianodagenova247]

Is this watch got a 'Climate change' funktion?

[@jimbo4576]

Nice but how do you tell the time it has no hands

[@mackellmo1083]

Another great vid! thank you.

[@rubbadubdub6543]

I know it’s not what this watch is about, but how do you tell the time with it?

[@the-quintessenz]

The white design actually looks really good on your skin type.

[@johnsherborne3245]

At 15 mm thick it’s sounds as if it doubles as a knuckle duster in case of emergency.

[@scampbell9375]

Queston - How do you tell the time?

[@VadoVoodoo]

I'm sorry, but YEUCK! It's 'orrible and blingy. I'd rather wear a squid on me wrist!

[@ericashmusic8889]

A delightfully calm & measured explanation coupled with down to earth sympathy for the subject & project. A beautiful looking watch (probably ) not everyones taste except those who love finesse. The 4 star Point compass obviously indicating the hour & the minutes instantly read off, unusual but practical & I guess easily adapted to. A pleasant little diversion on a rainy day. Thankyou. { p.s. Your Main Photo Logo shows part of a black dial that is almost identical to an Eternamatic Chronometer I have, with same design of batons, h&m sword style hands.} It occurs to me that Mfg' try to avoid 'copycat' designs yet I'm surprised by the striking similarity, but nere'the less Ta, once again.

[@johnpinner1]

Love the black version

[@conannanoc8768]

The white ceramic case makes it too much for me. Put this sam dial on a titanium case and now we are talking!

[@D-B-Cooper]

Flat earth model.

[@henrypasini6827]

😂

[@wiskeytash]

For a video that could be fun & different. how about a watch from scratch!!. Say your views could choose from 3 cases then say 3 movements dials, hands & so on like a Seiko mod but from your followers choice. could do this over a short series. I cant say iv seen this done on youtube i maybe wrong!!!

[@petnzme]

Ironically....it's a beach or boat watch....

[@ionracer24]

That one is def the best version yet! It looks best on ur daughter and wifey granted, but not bad on you either. I would really consider buying and wearing one but it would be destroyed in a week on my wrist like that feller who bashed his seiko. Unfortunately through no fault of my own, due to my professsion and day to day things i do. This is why i only wear g-shock cause i havent killed one yet surprisingly....i know right?? Thanks for sharing Joe, that truly is a beautiful watch! P.S. we both know who's gonna end up with it...hint..not u lol

[@johnsrabe]

1:44 I just shake my head at the silly notion that skin cancer and trimming one’s nails is macho! This watch looks awesome with a dark blue sportcoat and light blue dress shirt cuff.
