Walk around with high vibration. I've been doing that a lot lately. I find that when I'm out and about, walking around in that state draws people to me. It's weird! If I walk around feeling feeble, insecure or anything negative, people are repelled. I've been doing a lot of experimenting lately :)
Also, The Rings of Power is AWESOME

[@markjackson1136]

Oh man I miss your vids. Makes me smile....entertaining yet informative. Thanks.

[@minitwatch]

Thanks, Mark! I appreciate it!

[@minitwatch]

**edit. I don't know why the intro music died! I was fine before uploading :/ What's up, gang! I hope you all have a great weekend! Much love!

[@charliebrewer617]

Great job on the “Check the Lume” song. Good to see your hands, wrist and personality again. Thanks for the video. I agree about the flatness of the watch, but the design is awesome.

[@minitwatch]

Thank you kindly, Charlie! I appreciate it! Cheers!

[@WatchmakerErik]

Minitwatch makes me happy.

[@minitwatch]

It's why I do it :) Thanks, Erik!

[@thachometer]

You are so goofy and sound very kind. I am here for it.

[@minitwatch]

Thank you! I am here for you as well! Cheers!

[@muscularibuprofen69]

I've been watching watch vids for years and I have to say yours are some of my favourite because you keep it down to earth and are actually entertaining.

[@nickfoster3637]

I found myself holding a lighter up in the air during the"Check the Lume" song. Rock on!🤘

[@minitwatch]

Rad! Thanks, Nick! I'm glad you liked it!

I loved the puppet show towards the end of the video. Hahaha. Made my day! Entertaining indeed. Thank you! ☺️

I love the new lume song 🎵 🦖🐢

[@minitwatch]

Thank you! I gotta figure out some kind of sequence for it!

[@huckinator]

In my opinion, this is the one to go for if you want a prx powermatic. That green isn’t too “green” (if that makes sense) to clash with outfits. It’s more fun than the black, white, and the blue variants.

[@pizza.doctor]

I personally would like it to be a more vibrant green. In the flesh without studio lights it looks black a lot of the time. Almost all the time when inside, you have to be in direct sunlight for it to look green. I ended up not buying it because it just doesn't look green too often. The publicity photos for it are edited and they don't look at all like in real life

[@ayeyo2711]

I like the part about being happy with what you already have and not wanting to buy another watch unless it’s something that really speaks to you. That’s kind of where I’m at right now. Been waiting a few years to do just the right mod and I’ll have a fairly complete collection

[@emptyMan0]

It's lovely to hear your voice and jokes again. I didn't feel this watch either when I tried it on. Somehow, the bezel design felt cheap to me so I ended up with a Tissot Gentleman.

[@minitwatch]

Thank you! I appreciate it! The Gentleman sure is nice! Does it wear on the larger side?

[@emptyMan0]

@@minitwatch It might look larger but I would say it hugs the wrist better. On the other hand, the bracelet is very chunky and an absolute scratch magnet.

[@UkrainianJerry]

Just bought one with a blue dial. Very happy with it! Outstanding watch.

[@pw10a2sal]

10:13 Check the Lume Song / What a enjoyable surprise ... You did it great !

[@minitwatch]

Thank you!! I'm glad you liked it :) Cheers!

[@simonwright6882]

I like the look of this but it's a shame it needs a 7" plus wrist to wear well. That's why I won't be getting one. Good to see you back 👍

[@minitwatch]

I wish they made a 36mm version. That might be perfect. Thanks, Simon!

[@mariog7213]

@@minitwatch there’s the new quartz 35mm and they will release the auto version pretty soon

There isn't a bad choice in any of them. Just hard choosing one.

I have a Tissot that I got as a gift in 99 or 00 & I have never taken it out of the box! Today's lunch was Oatmeal with blueberries, strawberries, peanut butter & protein powder!

[@Wonky-Donkey]

I was wondering just the other day when you were going to upload a video. Glad to see you're back. Did you check out all the new Long Island watches? Marc released so really nice new models.

[@minitwatch]

I have! There are so many neat things!

[@MarcoCarag]

Loved this Hamilton...erm, Tissot review. Amazing how you found a bracelet that fit it! Uh...what? I mean of course the Ha--Tissot's integrated bracelet fits, I knew that, not amazing at all. Shimmery! (When's that Hamilton bracelet vid coming?) New Check The Lume is amazing. Awesome video as always. As for me, I tried this watch on and found it way too long on my tiny wrist, but the 35mm version is fabulous. Dug the Expanse reference, by the way. I miss that show.

[@minitwatch]

Howzit! In all fairness, I have the black dial version of the Hamilton FC 38 which comes with the bracelet. It's the same case as the silver dial so it fits! Thank you! I'm glad you like the newer version of the song! I actually worked a good while on it! Also, i'm super happy someone got the Expanse reference!! That show is amazing! Cheers!

[@MarcoCarag]

@@minitwatch Oh gotcha, I thought you found a third party bracelet. I know that some Uncle Seikos for instance fit some Hamiltons. Don't remember which models, though.

[@jankay8569]

whoa welcome back!

Hello howdy!

[@JuanFranciscoCueto]

What a great song, love it!! Thanks!!

[@jorgealdunate9140]

Got this one in NYC in September! No regrets!

[@minitwatch]

Nice! Congrats!

[@HisMajesty99]

I rly thought I wanted the blue until I saw videos of the green. I usually never even consider green but somehow I feel a pull towards this even more-so than the blue. Idk which to choose now 😂

[@tendousj]

NIce Check The Lume Song. Make me want to listen using my HD600 again.😄

[@petergplus6667]

5:15 That small dent in the baclet perfectly illuminated :)

[@minitwatch]

That's...not a dent haha! That was um...from my face ;/

[@tomasinacovell4293]

At the time in the early 50's when the 2428 ETA movement was first created it had been the 21,600 BPH, which was considered high-beat at the time, and then later they upped it to 28.800 BPH which is what's called high-beat today. Did you know that Tissot is the "T" in "E-T-A", non?

[@Julian-wd8ym]

How sturdy is the watch? Or how sturdy does it appeear so far xD

[@minitwatch]

It's probably about average. The movement might be slightly above average, though!

[@ZackMorris1]

What up Curt! Alternate Check the Lume song which is awesome, but the actual lume is so sad for a watch above $500. I really like the waffle face and the brushing and shiny bits of the whole package, but yeah just a bit too pricey. Lunch has been boring lately as I've been back on the low carb hardcore wagon, just chicken and greens with nuts and cheese. Sounds like your vibe lately is generating what they call social momentum. One day you go out and you're positive and vibing and you talk to a bunch of people and you're in the zone with it and it feels familiar. The next day you ride that momentum and it seems normal and you talk to even more people and so on. It's definitely a thing. Remember though, even Superman had his Fortress of Solitude for a reason. The weather been crappy here on the east coast last week or so, so I've been in my Fortress. Probably will go up to the bar tomorrow. Good to see a vid again, I love all of em! Stay good brah!

[@minitwatch]

Damn bro. The whole fortress of solitude thing was deep. Thanks for that! I think my place is my fortress of solitude. I am always alone here. And that sucks because it's awesome! I have all the things! lol. I'm glad you understand what I'm talking about, though. I am not going to be an extra in anyone else's movie from now on. I am the star of my own :) Have a great weekend man!

[@ZackMorris1]

@@minitwatch Yeah I've gotten into a few more hobbies at home and the past few weeks been chilling at home more than usual. Starting to feel that social itch though, as with anything it's all a balancing act. Too much of one or the other isn't the best, but if you're in the zone roll with it.

[@minitwatch]

@@ZackMorris1 I was watching a video earlier on the path to enlightenment. In that video, the gentleman was saying that one must learn to be alone, to do things alone to be so purely comfortable in your own skin while alone and only pure happiness can emerge. It's kind of true for me. I was alone...and happy. Then something happened...and all of a sudden, I was more sad than I ever was. Now I'm happy again! lol I want to find someone that also wants to be alone...but with me. Seei'msayin'? Know'msayin'? An impossibility I'm sure :p

[@absolutwater]

Diggin the new intro music, kinda zen.

[@minitwatch]

Heck yeah! Makin' people think! Or...my software somehow screwed it up lol

[@patrickmorrissey2271]

Hey, great to see you! I like it. It has classic simplicity.... And I have to say, I'm much more forgiving in a Swiss watch, if the bracelet is not replaceable. Their stock bracelets are definitely a lot better than some others..... (looking at you Seiko and Citizen)....

[@ZackMorris1]

I take it you detest Skagen watches as well lol they are the biggest offenders of having non replaceable bracelets. Even though they are mostly quartz, but proprietary bands are a non starter for a quartz.

[@minitwatch]

Heya, Patrick! Good to see you too! I'm glad you survived the storm! I hope everything is okay!

[@minitwatch]

I like the new "What's wrong with my PC" intro music. Artist is kinda goofy. This one is too big for me, and seeing it on your wrist... khhm khhmm... Yep! There is a quartz one but...hmmm... it is more era accurate... but...too much for a quartz. IDK. Now... chronograph on the other hand, amazing!
