@@dementedcucumber thanks mate and thanks for watching!

[@Horometician]

Great video, your point of view nail it completely and speak of the mind of true watch enthusiast. I love Horage K2 and now looking at JLC with great interest

[@FullyLumed]

I’m glad you enjoyed it, Thanks for watching!

[@nakshatrasengupta4117]

Another fantastic video from this channel!

[@FullyLumed]

@@nakshatrasengupta4117 thanks, glad you enjoyed. As I grow, more original footage will be included, so please stick around!

[@SingleTrackMined]

Very good video. The Horage innovation is revolutionary. Brilliant!. Subscribed

[@FullyLumed]

Thanks mate, I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@jackochainsaw]

Horage are using the micro-rotor which I would prefer over a manual wind. Yema have a pretty good micro-rotor going in quite a few of their watches. The Venezianico is pretty awesome too. I love the Aventurine dial on the Nereide (and the gold one too). Citizen has been doing great watches recently. They had some pretty awesome watches last year as well. The JLC is sadly in the unobtanium price bracket, but can't argue that they make some banging watches.

[@FullyLumed]

@@jackochainsaw my thoughts exactly! Thanks for watching!

[@ManfromJapan12]

Fantastic ORIGINAL content. Thank you so much for not mentioning the same old names .

[@FullyLumed]

No problem, they’re genuinely some of my favourites at present. I’m glad you enjoyed and thanks for watching!

[@ManfromJapan12]

@FullyLumed I watch other channels like Britt Pearce and the like and all they do is mention the same boring brands. You now have a new follower.

[@FullyLumed]

@@ManfromJapan12 thanks. I like Britts content, but I am trying to offer something different to what is already available. :)

The Polaris perpetual calendar in gold is gorgeous, just too expensive! I tried it on when I was dropping off my JLC master control for servicing earlier this year. To me, the rest of the Polaris line pales in comparison (nice, but I’d rather the top-of-the-line). Maybe if the coming recession is really bad there’ll be a deal on the secondary market. While I love JLCs, their constant material price increases have put me off buying another at retail.

[@FullyLumed]

The gold remark was a little tongue in cheek. Gorgeous watches, but yes, the retail price and weak residuals will probably hit the new models like the previous ones!

[@masterdad-zf9po]

@@FullyLumed that’s my take as well. I’m watching as prices of many watches go down in the aftermarket and hoping that I can get one or two for a relative song in due course. Doubt the JLC will hit the affordability meter, but never say never!

[@FullyLumed]

@@masterdad-zf9po fingers crossed the Geographic drops below five grand 😂

[@Mike-DuBose]

Just found your channel, how do you not have more subscribers? Just added one more to your sub list!

[@FullyLumed]

@@Mike-DuBose thanks mate. And thanks for watching. The channel has been going for less than 4 weeks so I’m overwhelmed with how many have subbed and watched, but genuinely thanks and I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Ben does it again!!

Top video lad

[@FullyLumed]

Haha cheers mate

[@sweetcorn1968]

I'm trying desperately to stay interested in stock footage. When will there be some original footage?

[@FullyLumed]

@@sweetcorn1968 thanks for the feedback, I totally get it. Obviously my channel is new and I’m limited on contacts in the industry. I’m compiling an army of equipment for filming and in contact with a few local watch dealers about getting footage. But it is noted and I’m actively trying to achieve it. Please bear with me, this isn’t something I’m being paid for and I have a full-time job so the process isn’t as easy as me throwing my whole time into it, Thanks for watching and I hope you stick around.

[@kaczynski2333]

​@@FullyLumedit's fine; most of us realise you're a new channel, and your content is quality.

[@FullyLumed]

@@kaczynski2333 thanks mate, hopefully it improves as I learn! Again, I appreciate the feedback and the support

[@desireless4092]

After getting my desired Breitling, Rolex and Omega pieces, my next and final target is JLC, preferably Reverso Duoface. AP and Patek are of no interest to me, especially after I tried few they don't speak to me and are a bit silly, but then again they are created for people who want to make their presence known and flex their status. JLC are way better than AP or Patek in my humble opinion, especially for the price which is quite attractive on the 2nd hand market.

[@FullyLumed]

@@desireless4092 my thoughts exactly. I’m still further behind in my watch collecting journey but my end goal is JLC! But honestly, I can appreciate AP and Patek from afar, but as you say, JLC just resonates with me so much more! Thanks for watching!

[@sathishrao7926]

Watching this video that mentions a few watches with integrated bracelets while wearing one.. No it’s not a PRX.. It’s a poor man’s Royal Oak - Edifice EFR-S108D which I bought for under $100 on sale !

[@FullyLumed]

@@sathishrao7926 the Casio edifices are quality watches for the price! Thanks for watching!

[@ads-porewealth96]

Love that geographic. Just wish it had a date… and was 2mm smaller…. 😂

[@FullyLumed]

A 40mm would be perfect! Thanks for watching!

[@kaczynski2333]

An idea that may already be on your list; compare Chinese with Western.

[@FullyLumed]

That’s a good one mate. I’ll add it to my list

[@FullyLumed]

@@kaczynski2333 I have been thinking about comparing my San Martin to my Tudor to be honest, because quite frankly, the San Martins finishing is probably better.

[@kaczynski2333]

​@@FullyLumedpeople feel pretty strongly about it, so it should drive engagement.

[@FullyLumed]

@@kaczynski2333 yes, thanks. Ill 100% do it over the next few week thanks

[@kaczynski2333]

​@FullyLumed another thought, have a look at the handmade stuff, it's often more affordable than Rolex, Omega, VC, AP, Patek, etc
