First off, your intro is a lot of fun - you just seem super enthusiastic. I saw the thumbnail with that dial and was immediately pulled in by how stunning the watch looks. I like some of the splashes of originality I see. I'll echo what another poster said about some tiny QC issues with the indices. Though looking at the website, I don't see the same issues there so may just be the odd watch here and there. I agree with some of your points about the bracelet. That it has a double quick release on a 16mm to 24mm bracelet is a bit strange. I would have expected a fully integrated bracelet given their chosen design. Also as someone with itty bitty wrists, I hate when there's no microadjusts or on the fly adjusts. It did look good on wrist and you also intro'd me to a Microbrand I hadn't seen previously. Appreciate your review.

@@mariacomet Thank you so much for watching, I really do appreciate that! And thank you for the feedback about the video, I realize we are a little different in our approach and I’m so glad you like it. This watch is mostly great, it feels so nice to wear and it looks even better in person. The thing about the bracelet is I’d never want to change it, but I do want the option to do so. Thanks again for checking in and I hope we can chat again soon! All the best! Jason

nice watch! but it looks like the 12:00 indices are slightly crooked and the chrono minutes subdialhand leans to the left at 0

Digging that Salmon dial!

[@mydudewatch]

Yes sir…. It is gorgeous

[@Simon.Alistair]

Gorgeous I want one

[@mydudewatch]

@@Simon.Alistair looks even better on your wrist. It is absolutely beautiful. Also, there is a coupon code in the description to offer you a 10% discount. Thanks for watching!

I like your dissection of the watch. It's like a fine surgeon and no secret handshake...Haha. It's sweet and I have a lot of cavities. I like the temptation...Goodbye for now my friend.

[@mydudewatch]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Love it. You motivate me Brother…. I gotta keep feeding the masses 😂

[@JPLewcun]

Nice pick, love alternative looking chronos/gmt, etc. Too many standard look alikes.

I was hoping it didn't have a Seagull movement but so be it. However this integrated butterfly bracelet with no half links or adjustment makes it a hard pass. Also, the 1200 pips are a bit wonky. I absolutely LOVE the square case but too many niggles with this one.

[@tonydilucente2342]

That being said I have been looking for a microbrand from India to add to my collection so I will check them out in more detail.

[@mydudewatch]

Good insight as always

[@aaronsmith8335]

Hmmm... 24mm overall bandwidth connected by 16mm Springbars? Sounds like the Casio DW-5600 G-Shock Family! With the advent of metallic/shiny G-Shocks and Casio square watches, it could be worth a look for bracelets. Not sure I would bet on finding one as nice as the one that came with the watch. And it would probably be wise to BOLO for folded links, especially in budget pieces. My personal experience is with those adaptors that allow you to use a nato strap. IDK if these come in metal or metallic finish.

[@mydudewatch]

@@aaronsmith8335 excellent point and good observation, thank you for that. I appreciate you mentioning that.

[@WatchingtheTime]

I'd be concerned about getting it wet. Unless it's a G-Shock, those screw case backs make me nervous. I guess that's why most have a 3 or 5ATM rating. The bracelet seems confused. Doesn't know what it wants to be. It wants to look integrated without being integrated, you get quick release but it's pointless because you may not be able to replace it with something different. And as someone else pointed out, there's some misalignment issues with the dial.

[@Pierluigi_Di_Lorenzo]

Proxima PX1734 and PX1707 are better. Much cheaper, thinner, lighter and better looking. Meca quartz instead of a Chinese chronograph movement with dubious reliability and serviceability.

[@mydudewatch]

Hey there! Thanks so much for watching and I really do appreciate your input. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Good insight!

[@johng.6222]

Yup... Couldn't have said it any better.

[@baandoptager]

Nah, not a fan. Looks cheap.

[@mydudewatch]

@@baandoptager hey there! I do appreciate you watching. We have a lot of cool things coming up in the new year and can’t wait to tell you about them. If you can think of a watch you’d like to see on the channel please let me know and I’ll see what I can do. Thanks again…. Jason
