I didn't expect to like the watch when I first heard about it, but I really do now. It's a pretty and rugged watch at the same time. Thank you for another lovely video, may the algorithm gods bless you my friend.

Spot on review, I've always liked the MOP dialed Essence . Matchy matchy dress and dial 😊

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

Thanks! Yessss I'm a huge MOP fan too. Such a good combo 👌

[@ApurtureSci]

Cool watch! Interestingly the clever clasp with microadjust is almost identical to that on the Longines Spirit Zulu Time I just bought, except that's all stainless steel and obviously has a Longines logo - must come from the same supplier!

[@RichardKoppinger]

Very cool dial. And I love the clasp adjustment almost as much as that awesome nail color. ❤

[@Formexwatch]

Thank you for sharing Lucy 🙂

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

Thanks for letting me get hands-on with it! 😊

Stone watches are very 70's80's and I love this blue Agate dial it's gorgeous looks like a lot of watch brands are having a bit of nostalgia and I'm here for it good video.

It's a really gorgeous piece. I love dial. With the strap, it looks quite dressy, and I love the flexibility of a watch that is more than just one thing. Great vid Lucy.

I love the Essence range. I have the 39mm Garamet and with my tiny 6.25 inch wrist it wears like a dream! I would like to add a second one soon but can’t decide which one just yet. Thanks for the review Lucy!

Very much here for stone dials. LOVE a Malachite. This one is really interesting, not least because of how understated it is. In fact, if you replaced the Agate with a standard dial, threw in some texture or fumé to make it interesting, would it change much? I don't know that it would. We have a decent sports watch with a decent movement, case and finishing and a stealth stone dial. I'd be interested to find out the rationale behind not using something a bit more noticeable. Still, the price point is fantastic for what you're getting, I can see why Formex has enthusiastic fans.

It's a Great looking, rugged sports watch. I would like to see a no date version in 42mm. Great review as always!

[@chitownjoe21]

Finally a watch made "FORMEXicans"😂

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

😂

[@Robert-vw3od]

It uses a 41 hour power reserve because the movement has not been modified in any way the only problem with FORMEX is it sounds a little bit like another brand.

[@andreatel90]

Is that a black or blue rubber strap?

[@TheWatchBoxDiaries]

It's black!

[@wristopia4101]

No, next silly question......
