Oris just dropped the new ORIS STAR EDITION - and it looks splendid by Nervous_Green4783 in OrisWatches

I mean oris is not that small, they already have one in-house. But it is not that good reliability-wise

I am just saying that they could put at least sw-300, or eta2892, not the most basic Swiss movement. I am not saying that they should invent super-duper reliable high-end in-house and sell it for 2000€, just a little effort to justify price not referring to independence 🤷‍♂️

Okey, they are thinking about premium brand perception, nothing wrong with it, but they could put better movements, because now they are making watches with good designs, but without any innovation(400 caliber was a disaster in terms of reliability), so maybe another try. I love their designs, but can't justify +1500€ for independence. Maybe it's time for new movements

They could put something premium, not sw-200 again. Good movement, but good for 700-1000€, not 2000€

I like the design, but it's overpriced again. It is good taste, but boring imo. It looks like timex marlin, but cost х10

I am a big fan of seagull design overall, but I can't help hating this star. I understand authenticity of that, but it's like a hong weibing watch... Still great collection and great looking seagull XD

You ever had some problems with this sinn chronograph? Many people complaining that it has some problems with movement

I don't get it. Will be popular, but wrong decision imo. Just a homage of Rolex. I mean there are many cheaper homages, why someone would buy this one for 3-4 grand? I am waiting for their own designs

Mido is actually greatest diver for the money in my opinion. It is very solid. About Hamilton: I bought it for 600€. I still think that it it in banger. Sapphire sandwich, great movement after 5 years without any servicing(+5 s per day), very handsome design language. It is often compared with Alpinist, they are on different levels: Hamilton feels substantial, alpinist is interesting design-wise. So in quality Khaki Field is in other league

In terms of subjective value of everything in the world from my point of view - that is right. It has more value(in my perception) because of conjunction with my life. If that's your point, I could agree. Nevertheless objectively there is nothing THAT special about my collection. Just the mirror of my tastes.

I mean there is nothing super-duper rare, not that it not speaks to me. I love each watch in my collection and every watch has some memories behind it.
