I have the spb093. Having owned lots of watches. There is nothing as cool and classic as a dress watch. Its a bit deep, but it feels expensive and well made. On any leather strap, it looks stunning.
How large is your wrist?
Both are awesome. I just ordered the Seiko Presage SPB393.
El único video q veo 😅
I also contacted Iron Heart and they informed me that it is neither Shinki nor Tochigi Cordovan. What it is is still a mystery?!
I just picked it up on eBay for $200 🙏🏽 fabulous color way….
Thank you for this great review! If I can only have 1 forever wallet, would you advise i go with this Iron heart Cordovan wallet or the Flat head cordovan mid length wallet?
Have had my wallet for about a month best wallet ever
Where can I buy the watches?
Good video mate love the Jeans just a bug bear for me I see you got size 34 are you a 34 in other jeans so did you buy these in true size because I'm a 34 in say levis and others but I'm getting mixed messages on all websites about the sizing and you say you have a few more pairs of iron hearts interested in your thoughts would love to see follow up Vids on these jeans keep the good work up
the hands are not heated right?
I understand that they a not heat treated. But painted blue.
I know your hip hurts carrying that
thank you for this video. Both are lovely watches.
パワーリザーブと曜日の表示がないのは平面の美しさが楽しめますが、やや退屈😞やっぱり歪みがあっても曜日とパワーリザーブは欲しい😃
I also agree that there is no way Ashland (As much as I love the company and support them) is not stamping there own shells or they are having Horween put extra stamps on it for them. Of course Ashland isn't going to come out and say yes to it. They want their items to have that "desire" to them but at the same time there making it not so desirable when every single wallet that's made in shell has 1 or more ink stamps on it.
Hi, I was wondering, what is the size of your wrist? Thank you
That thing is a brick! It's a beautiful wallet,looks very well made,but way too thick of a wallet for me.
After it breaks in, it will be fine. Not for suits and ties but jeans. Get a card holder when you wear a suit
The about section of your channel states that you do reviews of “high end goods.” Yet, you are reviewing a couple of complete shitter seikos lol. Seriously, come on…
Really nice boots you got!
How thick is it in everyday use? Is it too thick to be practical? Looks extremely beefy but damn I want one
Great review!! I’m a 9.5 E on the Barrie last Indy boot and just ordered a new pair of 9.5 d on the trubalance - does that seem like reasonable logic to you?
Thank you for your update. I totally agree with you. If there is no date window, it would be much better.
I live in Japan past 20 years. I would guess those pockets, that you thought were for checks, are for receipts or point cards. Probably receipts. Nice wallet. I’m looking for one. Thanks for the video!
Really really awesome and a rare color
Great review. Any opinions about TFH midsize or trifold wallet?
Thanks ! What is your wrist size ?
Classy looking pair of boots they look perfect. On feet would be good to see.
That leather looks very interesting, can you make a trying on/ fitting video. 👍
How has the cotton held up the past year?
I agree. It would have looked so much nicer without the datewindow.
Could NOT agree with you less, the dial design is flawless (spb093j1)
@@pianothatilove Well. Lets agree to disagree.
Dave Himel is more of the guru of the leather crafting industry. Had no idea that they made boots as well. Worth checking out. Cheers and Thanks
As you’ve probably already discovered, the Thomas heel will wear down quicker than you think. The neocork, on the other hand, will last almost a decade for the causal wearer.
Just finished binging all of your reviews. I (and I'm sure others) would love for you to make more reviews, they're really enjoyable. I just recently got into welted boots with my first pair being the saddle tan veg diesel from grant stone.
How much $$$
I'm ordering a shell Fat Herbie tomorrow. I was going to get a log wallet in Color #8 from them, but I think I just found my next wallet. But $850--ouch! From one Philly guy to another--thanks for the review.
Hi, is this pair for sale? If you ever want to sell this pairs please let me know. Been looking forever for them
Beautiful shoes....thank you for your review. Alden's doing a preorder for a limited run of a similar style boot in chromexcel called "Dirty Bones" that I'm considering. I recently discovered Alden shoes and found the trubalance last to produce boots that feel like they're custom made. How have your 40538H worn? Any quibbles?
The wallet is too thick.
good lord, my hearts aches I want this watch so badly
So you prefer the 6r35 for its windup vs the 6r27 with a higher tick rate?
I did not know that Ashland had their own stamp. I spoke to Phil about some shells getting multiple stamps (because I have seen this before) and he was pretty adamant about his shells only having one stamp. But honestly, I am doubtful of this because I just don’t see how one would be able to get a perfectly centered stamp on nearly every single wallet? And sometimes multiples stamps on a single wallet?
So? Are you really showing off the ink stamp of your expensive wallet?
I asked about this as well and not sure where you "apparently" heard that Ashland got their own stamp. You are aware that they're just down the street from and have at least one person (Dan) who still works at Horween? No doubt they can get their hands on some sweet picks of the shells.
Cool video, Mate! Interesting channel! Looking forward to more reviews.
John Lofgren has a wingtip in Shinki Hikaku “Cognac shell cordovan” but Shinki only offers Cognac Horse butt. Now if cordovan and horsebutt are the same thing then nvm but I thought horse butt was the one with the wild grain.? the leather on these himel bros.
Shinki sells shell both cordovan and horsebutt. These boots with the wild grain are 100% horsebutt... The shell cordovan they sell have a very glossy, almost waxy appearance to it. With that being said, all horsebutt does not have the grain that these boots have. Some horsebutt is smooth, and almost resembles a calf leather of sorts. Hopefully that helps
Hi, do you still have them both? Wanted to check what are your thoughts about the watches after several months of use/ownership. I have the spb067 model so if I am to buy one of these it will most likely be the one with the power reserve.
its a perfect bot. but does it really worth the 850$ it cost?
It is if you really want it.
The Barrie last is wider and a little longer in length in comparison to the true balance last
Thanks for the comment but the barrie is not wider than the trubalance. It is a touch longer, but definitely not as voluminous as the trubalance.
Would love to see an update on this pair!
Thanks for the reviews, with regards to thickness are they the same consistency throughout? Would you say these can be worn with sneakers I would like to wear them with rolled up trousers but with sneakers Are they gonna be too thick for sneakers? Or would you say they are specifically for boots?
Hey! Thanks for the view - so they are definitely the same thickness throughout. I would also say they can be worn with sneakers easily. They are somewhere in between a cotton dress sock and a wool hiking sock if that helps at all.
Anordain sells similarly priced porcelain dial watches as well. Quite a different aesthetic though...
And a decade long wait list. I went with the Fabrik 1 in blue. Vitreous enamel, whatever the hell that is. 😂
