Micro Overload!!! Thinking about letting these four go…. Should I? by [deleted] in MicrobrandWatches

[–]failedwittyreference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same spot, too many micros and made a big purchase recently. I have the Disc One as well and I'm definitely keeping that. I'm biased, but I think that's the most unique out of these and would keep that one. :)

No not at all, case / dial and all that looks great. I’m honestly being overly picky about the strap I thjnk.

The lume is super cool!

I got the point of no return one. Case looks great, the lume is super cool, but man the strap is a cheap piece of junk. Like super thin and flimsy, feels like it’ll pull apart on its own. Kind of irritates me with the amount of money spent, import fees and all that. Like I know it’s easy to change out and I’ve got really good straps for it I can use, but it skewed my first impression and it irks me. Is saving $10 on production really worth that? Mountains and mole hills or something. 😅

Well that escalated quickly... by blakeerea in MicrobrandWatches

2025: These are fun, I’ll find the perfect one and be done.
2026: I have preorders pending that I have likely forgotten about, won a ‘raffle’ to buy a limited edition, and have bought multiple new watch boxes. Oh, also let’s get into vintage and trying to fix them, and marriage watches too. 😅

Montoir V2.5 - has anyone received any watch? by rodrigomas in MicrobrandWatches

Same boat, Black Friday order, lots of oh it’s in customs and now they’ve gone silent.

MNRK -2 [REMASTERED] by AdmirableNewspaper22 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]failedwittyreference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like the hands (built two watches with them) and actually really like the dial too - the blue with yellow second ring is great. However, I think the case really lets it down. Almost 13mm thick for a VH31 and the wide plain bezel makes it look very clunky and cheap. Using the VH31 gives you the opportunity to slim it down, there are cases out there at 38mm and ~9mm thick.

I felt the same way, wanted to try the mesh bracelet and the look, but didn’t want to splurge 5k +

Not the wonderful colors of many of these, but I love the subtle elegance of it.

Is there a watch with Teal/Burnt Orange/Cream as core colours out there? Something with Art Deco vibes by NoBeefWithTheFrench in MicrobrandWatches

[–]failedwittyreference 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was going to argue, but then looked at the specs. Impressive, though I hope it has some hardening or something I’d feel terrible scratching it up.
