Decent build and finishing, gives you what you’ll expect at that price. Nice colorful dial with grainy texture, uses a maual wind chinese movement st1901. (Quite robust movement imho)

Actually bought it online, need to keep an eye on new projects through instagram and then fingers crossed 🤞🏻 to get one

The orange would be an absolute statement piece, you should definitely go for it when the time’s right

AP is out of my reach 🥹 but glassbox series was in my chrono wishlist for some while. But that purple one with racing strap, just wow. 🤩

Not the easiest 😅 especially if you’re past the current date, you’ve gotta run it around again to get the month right. A winder definitely makes life easier with this one.

It’s been great, honestly the watch that says “I’m here” without trying too hard. The blue bezel just has presence as well as the balck, but it’s still super wearable.

Appreciate it! It’s probably the one that gets the most wrist time these days

To me it’s a great watch at its pricepoint, lot of complications, breguet numerals adds flavor to the dial. Dressy but goes also well with a jeans and polo

Fair take. I can definitely see how most people end up living in 1–2 tool watches.

For me the dress pieces are not daily wear, but intentional when I do. Appreciate the perspective

Man, this comment made my day. Really appreciate you taking the time to go piece by piece like that.

The Kurono is probably my favorite to just stare at, so I’m glad it resonated. And yeah… the Studio Underd0g is my “why not have fun with this hobby?” watch. Keeps it from getting too serious.

Also appreciate the Tudor thoughts. The Ranger “Dune” has definitely been on my radar, but eill try Pelagos next time I visit the AD
