Microbrands is where the innovation takes place. I adore good design, good manufacturing, and good value.

[@walkaroundwatches]

Yeah man same here. Love the creativity of microbrands 💙

[@richardtyler9407]

Love the Micro brands! Please keep putting out new content.

[@walkaroundwatches]

Thanks mate! I'll do my best 😊 Got a couple of corkers I'm working on at the moment. Thanks for watching 🫶🏽

[@puckzvmjhlavacekj]

These microbrands are stunning-each piece feels like a true collector's gem!

[@walkaroundwatches]

Thanks 😁

[@simonmcguire4290]

Excellent collection, good video and collecting ethos - why have a handful of expensive (and often over - rated) watches when you can have loads of them giving you just as much enjoyment without any of the anxiety.

[@walkaroundwatches]

Thanks mate and I totally agree. Nice to have a good balance and, for me, some quirky ones in there too 😊 Thanks for watching and Happy New Year 🥳🎉

Fujifilm products stand out with their excellent color reproduction and unique designs, making them a favorite choice for photography enthusiasts, especially those who are passionate about film cameras.

[@theviaduct]

A lovely little collection you've got there Ed, a real mixture of creative and classic sets. I particularly like the far and switt lume, and the Beghof looks very interesting and of course the classic watermelon Heritor is a must have! 😂

[@walkaroundwatches]

Mate you're a gent. Personally love the F&S but, for me, maybe the colours on the dial and bezel could pop a bit more. Man that Beghof us lovely. Feels like a bit blue crystal attached to me wrist! Thanks for watching and Happy New Year 🥳🎉

I really liked it personally. Love the baby blue on the Glacier 💙 Happy New Year 🎉🥳

Cool looking watch definitely catches the eye and how the micro brands killed it this year. And the best way to end 2023. Happy New Year to you, mate

You have a very nice and varied collection Ed and make an interesting case for your top five. Have you a bottom five out of curiosity?

[@walkaroundwatches]

Thanks and that's an interesting question 😂😂 and answer is.. "probably" 😂

[@jjstrickland9536]

@@walkaroundwatchesyou should do a bottom five lol . Seriously though, it would be interesting to hear a reviewer do that for a change !

[@walkaroundwatches]

@@jjstrickland9536😂 I think if you search there will be some reviewers who give bad reviews but as for a Worst 5, I think that would be harsh on the microbrands who are predominantly small business. But I agree it would be amusing 😂

Hello and thanks you so much for this video. As a microbrands enthusiast, I really enjoy discovering each of your vids. 🎉 But as a Frenchman, nobody's perfect 😅, I sometimes have difficulty understanding your accent. Therefore, could you please tell me what is the name of the watch between the Holgar and the Ingersoll? Thanks again.

[@walkaroundwatches]

Bonjour and thanks for watching 😁 that is the I.TARU Classic. I.TARU is a Japanese microbrand and I reviewed their watch. The link is below...

@@walkaroundwatches i.taru ... Of course! One of the newest japonaise microbrands for now. 2023's founded I think ... I'm not a fan of their other watch, with the open heart dial, which looks like a low quality Ali express watch. But I love the one you bought, especially because of this amazing blue dial, so deep and so shiny at the same time. Thanks for your quick and helping answer.

[@walkaroundwatches]

@user-ke6xt1yl1l I'd highly recommend! I know the guy at I.TARU and he's pretty awesome 😁 thanks for watching and for your support of my channel 💙
