No better: Starlight has Miyota 9015, Nebula has NH35. But in this watch there is quality and good price.

Not sure i would agree with the use of the term industry-leading for an unknown micro-brand. The watch does look good. I like it better than Baltic.

Excellent watch and great review, I will buy 1 …… when will the Wise GMT be back in stock? I want the root beer !

To me this watch was a good surprise. I have to start by saying: it is an excellent buy, because I genuinely love how it looks on your wrist. Though I see the argument or narrowness resulting from longer lugs, ultimately this is a medium sized watch that wears large. It'll have something to do with the masculinity you refer to, and with which I'd tend to agree (not that any lady should be put off by that...) as well as the heft that results from the slightly taller thickness than would be ideal, resulting from the more affordable movement choice. Indeed, taking that into account the watch is an unattractive value proposition for European (and other non US) customers, and that's a pity. I think the long lugs, thickness, and male behaviour of the female endlink would almost certainly make this watch too large for me. But the design and execution you have demonstrated here I like far more than I perhaps thought that I would!

do u like the pinion neutron salmon dial?

Will check them out in Austin, Texas event. Nov 16, 2024.

Thanks Toni, I own a Nodus. Good review 🎉

This watch has been on my radar for a while now. Btw, what specific watch strap is that brown one from vario? Made the watch look like a totally different watch

Excellent review & advice

Great review 🎉

Cool watches but too small for me

A point about the lack of hacking: Non-hacking movements can back-hack. If you pull out the crown and put slight reverse presure on it, you can stop the movement or even make it go backwards. Try to avoid the latter, because it damages the movement. This effect is easier to achieve at low power. The swan neck regulator isn't useless, IMO. 1) You can check the accuracy even without hacking. Just time it in relation to the watch's setting. 2) You can back-hack it 3) You probably won't use it anyway, but there's more to look at. Which is the point of a display case back.

I have this watch, it is such an amazing timepiece.

I love ALL of these. Well done man.

Very happy to see this. Really interested in seeing more designs from Scandanavian brands!

I thought it was pagani design from the thumbnail... :) that logo..

By far, your review and footage are the best representation of this watch I've seen. I recently preordered their previous model with a new dial variant which I believe utilises the same case. After watching your analysis I'm glad I did.

This brand has been on my radar, thanks for the review as always Toni.

I own the white dial version. Gorgeous!

I really, really want this watch. ❤

First time hearing about this brand and one from Mexico no less! Thanks Toni, nice looking piece.

weird name but i like the zenith skyline case

This brand and the watch are almost as eccentric as the brand owner. What customer wants a brand name, model name, and color name they can't pronounce and a dial busy enough to make you dizzy? Just a bizarre, bizarre watch/brand.

Good luck with the rebrand, I'm sure you'll smash it. My favourite microbrand at the moment is Beaucroft Watches

hello

Really nice watch❤

Regarding strap, as i have the same watch but was wearing it on a Hirsch Performance sinve beginning :) - i decided to switch to original Leather strap and wore it for couple of weeks, but dont had the same issues like you did, the leaher is still looking like new, the holes are all fine, probably they changed the strap quality for some other batches? Btw i like the clasp a lot!

Hi Tony. I like the new format. Another very professional review as ever. Pitzman is a brand that frustrates me in the sense that they demonstrate the capability to build a watch with the level of quality which puts the Japanese and Swiss mainstream brands to shame by comparable price point. But constantly play safe in doing so by virtually homaging like this Daytona look alike. The Korean’s have such a rich culture in their own art and design and if Pitzman brought some of that into a watch like this, they would bring a compromise of playing safe by bringing something familiar to a mass market, but looking for something unique. The trouble with them at the moment is this is an albeit far superior watch in quality, competing in a market which on the surface is offering nearly the same quality, at far lower cost, with a bit of individuality from brands (albeit quartz) like Heimdallr aka Tactical Frog. Bring a mechanical chronograph, with some Korean artistry on the other hand, and I feel they are onto something different.

Steinhart is good i own 3 1st one still running well German owned company Swiss made parts for fractional of the price of more expensive watches

I’d say it’s closer to the Zenith Chronomaster Sport than the Daytona.

First time seeing this brand; very happy to be introduced!

You said it well. It's also worth noting that it's not only the Daytona this takes after, but due to this colourway it's the main reference that jumps out. Other famous chronos can also be recognised, and yet, and isn't that a true sign of still going beyond the usual brief of a true homage (discarding already those that veer too close to copying) that they actually show in many respects and especially in the organisation and legibility overall how the classics could be improved? I honestly think that in composition the Pitzmann III outperforms the impression left by the Daytona and that surely must be commended. Only Traska comes readily to mind as another brand that has taken the concept of famous (Rolex) models to another level in design execution. I really welcome the date on this watch. Chronos tend to be busy watches anyway, and this does not detract. Arguably it even increases a sense of identity. So do the flaring out lugs. But having seen pictures of the II and III side by side, I'm no longer sure the base of the case is truly equal to the II. The proportions seem to have changed. All that said, I still prefer the II with its clearer individual identity, even if clearly inspired by some greats too, as was indeed the First Pitzmann. Now they've come out with their fourth, I'm less sure if this brand concept of taking the essence of a great genre in watches to make a very high quality still somewhat affordable version of this to own specifications is going to continue guiding the brand. More importantly, with their fourth watch came also the release of a rather elegant and compact microadjust clasp. I do believe this is intended to be back-compatible, taking away one concern. It would be gracious if they'd offer that to new III customers free of charge, as a choice.

I think it leans heavily toward its source material, but doesn't fall over into rip off, and the homage element gives its own appeal of course. Seems to be the direction of the brand, looking at their site. Personally, I went with the Sugess automatic, and it's brilliant, as well as being a third of the price. I used to feel the same about homages but eventually came around to appreciating a well made one. Solid review!

I impulse purchased the Pitzmann III about 8 months ago. No regrets. A pleasure to wear.

It’s not too much of an homage to the platinum blue/chestnut Rolex Daytona. Those offbeat lugs , the black bezel, and the creamy subs see to that. Aside from the lugs it’s quite attractive. Personally, I have scratchd the itch with a $120ish homage to the aforementioned Daytona, which fools the nearsighted girls.

Really like your new format and great to see the handsome devil behind the channel. I think Pitzmann introduced enough of their own design elements that he watch can be said to be inspired by the Daytona but far from being in copy territory.

Is this too much of an homage?

The Zelos doing great job for years now That is my favorite microbrend

Congrats on new channl name my friend! My favorite micro would be Venezianico

i rly like ur channel... but i cant find the new one..

My favorie microbrend is Signum watches

One of my all time favorite microbrands is Batlik

A Longines Hydroconquest with better build quality and better movement costs $1000. I wouldn't buy neither Monta nor Formex.

Expected from a chinese company. Too sad we still fall into the trap of manufacturing there.

There are a lot of great microbrands out there so I have a hard time picking my favorite but let's just say is Zelos

At this moment Zelos would be my favorite microbrand for sure

A & B - hands down the nicest looking and with the best legibility..

Such a great channel for all of us, watch enthusiasts, I was shocked seeing you have under 5k subscribers. Your reviews are spot on, but the tonality of your voice, omg, your voice, it’s so smooth and calming, best voice out of all watch channels; I’ve instantly pressed the subscribe button and I hope you grow this channel because you definitely deserve many more subscribers! My favourite micro is Baltic. God speed, Toni, greetings from Romania!
