Wow. What an absolute stunner! Love everything about it... The colours, the retro feel. Love it on that strap colour too!

In the back of my head I thought you'd be the first to comment! Feels like something I would see on YOUR channel! Yeah, this watch is so dynamic...they did a great job of capturing the feel of our memories of the game.

Loots great but that price is crazy. Looking at their website I would suggest wait until the price drops. Other limited editions have come down a LOT in price.

@WatchWitt 5 ай бұрын

I don't like the mark up then discount game, which is why I mentioned the price the way I did. That said, Nubeo has been priced higher than others for quite some time. But everything they do is top notch. Just look at their website and all the pictures...they definitely believe in their product! And these are one of a kind watches!

@@WatchWitt I fif a bit of digging as I don't know anything about this brand. It appears to be implying that it is a swiss microbrand but might not actually be? The pricing malarkey is a big red flag. Are they a brand created by Watchgang? The trademark seems to be owned by a chinese based company.

@Subcomandante73 I don't know about their past, but online snooping will reveal those two items you mentioned, yet unclear if either is correct. Their parent company is Dartmouth Brands. Sister companies are Spinnaker, AVI-8, Ballast, Duxot, RGMT, Cadola, among others.

Crazy cool for sure. Reg msrp: $1,550. Now, on sale for $1,000. You can get an additional 5% off. It's really awesome. Thank you for sharing Witt 👍

@WatchWitt 5 ай бұрын

Additional FIFTY percent off with code OAOSI50 and then there's a 5% for signing up for their email list I think. But not sure if you can combine discounts. The regular price is inflated...I don't like that...but the watch is good!

@felo6035 5 ай бұрын

@WatchWitt Wow, thank you, Witt, for clarifying as I failed to realize there is an additional 50% off!!! That makes all the difference in the world. So cool...

Je confirme que ce modèle avec bracelet vert est de toute beauté! Certes le prix est haut pour une montre de geek mais c’est une mécanique et la qualité de finition est là! Ça ne fait pas montre en toc du tout! Ce modèle est sold out pour ce coloris mais il reste la couleur lava qui est très belle aussi . Donc ne tardez pas pour ceux qui hésitent

@WatchWitt Күн бұрын

Oui, ils fabriquent des montres de haute qualité ! J'adore le look de cette montre verte. Cependant, toute la gamme de couleurs semble bonne.

I wonder if the green covering the other dates is plastic and will fade with the sun and the time.

@WatchWitt 4 ай бұрын

Definitely looks like a solid color plastic. I doubt it would happen quickly, but it could be possible. If that did happen, it would still look cool, just less colorful.

Stumbled into this brand and they caught me way off gaurd Loooooove how thematic they are and the bold use of color is brilliant Ordered two models the Magellan chrono in gamer blue and the teal Parker The space invader is seriously tempting even for someone that never played the game

@WatchWitt 3 ай бұрын

I'm not usually a fan of the BIG tonneau cases, but that Megellan looks awesome! Definitely love their use of color, in practically every collection! The teal Parker looks good too...nice choices!

Can you do me a favor? I just received this watch and I was reading the manual and it’s says for the date setting turn the crown clock wise or anti clock wise until desire date is shown, but the thing is if I do clock wise the date doesn’t change only doing anti clock wise, is it a defect or it is how it works? Thank you

@WatchWitt 3 ай бұрын

The directions are usually universal for various movements. Like if you also had a day complication you would rotate the crown the opposite direction of the date to adjust the day. Or a GMT, etc. So just one position is normal for date only. Anti-clockwise is correct (rotating crown down, or towards you). If you're not aware, don't set the date when the hands are between 9pm and 3am, as it can damage the mechanism.

Is it possible to replace the strap? For a black one?

@WatchWitt 4 ай бұрын

I don't think so. The strap is integrated to the case, and they don't even make a black strap. I suppose there's a possibility of finding an aftermarket one, but Inhave no idea what the lugs look like. It appears it may be visible only after taking the caseback off. Full on integrated!

I don’t know Nubeo, is good quality ? 299$ is a good price for this piece ?

@WatchWitt 3 ай бұрын

Good quality, but best to find them deeply on sale, as you have. They were basically $500 when they first came out. Some might complain about the crystal only being mineral glass at this price range, but it does appear to be high clarity and nice application of anti-reflective coating. There's only 125 pieces made in each color.
