The meteorite and titanium complement each other nicely, this is a sweet looking watch

i really have to agree. WHen I shot this one I really fell in love with it. In the end it was my KISS pick (Team wrap up video) for watches and Wonders fair.

This watch is a successful new edition of a Nivada classic. This titanium version with the meteorite dial is a successful reinterpretation. Beautiful and unique! Very good workmanship and a fair price. I am happy to own an F77 Meteorit. It looks even better in nature than in the pictures and videos. I was skeptical - but I am completely convinced.

The meteorite dial/titanium combo is nice, but I'm really tempted by that Lapis Lazuli F77. I wouldn't mind if that was titanium too, but steel will do.

I have the black F77 on my list. Love the meteor dial but it is slightly out of my price range for value. Plus I only buy titanium to reduce the weight in big divers, thereby bringing the down the heaviness to the 150g sports watch sweet spot. Great watch though

These really aren’t that far off. There’s a lot of vintage Nivadas with crazy cool dial options and colors. They posted a haul of vintage dials they found that will hopefully be in some very limited editions but would be great to see some inspiration for staple models in the collection.

Like the Titanium, like the meteorite dial, but I'm getting a bit bored of all the Genta clones. Homage is one thing (and yes, I understand this is an homage of a contemporary homage), slavish copying is another, and I'm not sure I can decide where this one lands.

i think this hits a very nice smaller sweet spot. I dont see it as trying to be an AP at all. If thats of coarse what you are getting at. Yes its had many of the same design direction, but it has a vintage vibe that an AP does not....and certaily not at this price point.

@@marcusflack1523 The flat industrial bezel (usually with rivets or screws), angular case, integrated bracelet seems to almost have become a class of watch in it's own right. Unlike with divers or field watches where the design is usage-driven, Genta homages are driven by a collection of designs from a designer that were iconic 50 years ago. The review highlights that the original here was too. I can't begrudge brands playing to design cues that sell, I guess, and I am 100% willing to accept its a me-thing, but they just don't spark interest anymore regardless of the price point.

@@marcusflack1523YT seems to have eaten my reply to this, sorry if it duplicates. I'll delete if it does. I think that the flat industrial bezel (usually with rivets or screws), angular case, integrated bracelet has almost become a class of watch in its own right. Unlike divers or field watches, the design isn't usage-derived, it takes its cues from a small number of successfully iconic designs from a single designer 50 years ago. Whilst I don't begrudge brands playing to what has sold well (and the original here did just that), I just don't find Genta-inspired pieces particularly interesting anymore (and I am 100% willing to believe that's just me) no matter what the price point.

@@WristwatchWorkshop fair enough indeed. And I completely get the wave of brands riding on the coat tails of gents design which is clearly still selling. Like in so many industries these days the default is to rehash old successful models or movies or design approached because it’s safe. After all when your a company that needs to profit to survive this is certainly always going to be the tempting default. But it’s also concerning when brands that do stretch into unknown territory and do something different how quickly the watch community jumps on them and slams them down. So sometimes you’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t. I love variety and celebrate it. I don’t want to live in a constant rehashing world. For sure. But I’m pretty sure I won’t ever buy a Royal Oak however I do appreciate the design of the Royal oak. And I see this watch not as a copy but a far more affordable entrance into this type of deign A respectful tipping of the hat to Genta that’s not saying I AM AN AP. on the wrist. It’s way more affordable. Super comfy on the wrist and maybe a great ‘one’ watch for someone or a playful entrant into a larger collection for the hungry watch enthusiast that like me is not going to drop crazy wads of cash on that AP.

37 mm is not a man’s size in 2024, unless you have a tiny frame , arms and wrists . This is for the Asian market most probably. If it has a meteorite dial then it’s not really being “ true” to its retro DNA is it now? 39 mm or 40 mm would have been much better in my opinion . Titanium is great but harder to machine , so one would have to see if the edges of the bracelet and clasp are not sharp as I have found on many titanium watches even in this price range or higher . Many use stainless steel on the inside of the clasp and titanium on the outside to avoid that issue . I won’t be buying one . I like the brand but their watches are too small for the average Caucasian man in my opinion, at least for me they are .

i see your point and your comment may have been something I would have typed a couple of years ago. But I am loving more and more watches coming down in size. I have a 7.5 inch wrist and everything about this watch ticked my bo aprat from the jutting out lugs which would have been so awesome if they droped more vertically making it hug the wrist the whole way around.
@theoverlord19253 ай бұрын
@@marcusflack1523 Yes, I am aware watches are coming down in size ; but it does not mean that because 47 mm Panerai ‘s are not very popular anymore that 37 mm is the new “ in”….Personally I think 37 mm on a 7.5 inch wrist looks way too small on a man , actually it will look kinda weird but if that is the look you are happy with hey , to each his own. Furthermore not all models are going down , some are going up for example the Rolex Submariner went from 40 mm to 41 mm , the Rolex Explorer went from 39 mm to 40 mm and that used to be a 36 mm watch back in the day .I just think that 39- 40 mm is the most universal size however the proof is in the sales . If they sell many 37 mm pieces then I guess I’m wrong ; if they don’t , well I’m probably right …..

I don't know why you think Asians have tiny wrists... I am not particularly large or tall but I have 7 inch wrists. You have wrists of all sizes across races... I would have liked to have considered the F77 Meteorite but 37mm is too small for me.
