It's a beautiful watch indeed, but yeah if you have a Tudor Black Bay then you really don't need it! Pretty bold of Lorier to stick with hesalite to really drive home the vintage feel instead of going with sapphire.
Great review! I have the Lorier in Black/white indices and I love it. So many watches have sapphire nowadays, so IMO the acrylic is a refreshing choice. Looks great, and I don’t mind a few scratches on vintage style watches 👍🏻
the doooome!!! its so nice!! i wish they made it saphire even if it was double the price. also the hands would be nice half brushed half polished. thats all they need to take this watch to a high level!
I just received a Black Bay with red bezel and now want the Lorier Neptune V.IV. If I had the black Black Bay I probably wouldn’t. The Neptune is different enough where it is a homage but not an outright clone. It takes details from several styles to be it’s own (or so I think). Cannot wait for mine.
Leo, great video! Thank you. Just discovered Lorier, and there is a local guy selling a Hydra 2 im blue (only one over here in Switzerland). I love the skin divers like the longines etc, but cannot afford one and with 42cm they are too big for me. The Hydra is similar im design and I like it very much. Should fit my 6.7 wrist I guess. What do you like about the hydra 2 compared to the neptune? Cheers from switzerland! Edit: found your hydra 2 video 👍🏻
Hey there. I find the Hydra 2 allot more comfortable and looks good with anything, I sold all my Lorier watches to help fund my Explorer 1. I say the one I missed the most is the Hydra 2 out of all the Lorier I had. Cheers 🥃🙋🏻♂️
Got rid of my Neptune, laid like a flat bottle cap, lugs way TOO LONG and flat, crown digs flesh, markers had bug eye affect IMO. Better options for $500.

Awesome watch. Love the blue one!! Love the plexiglass crystal
I love how watch videos have a map and usually a vintage camera or a stylish pen in the shot
I’ve been waiting for more Leo V and you never disappoint!
Thx my friend. Cheers Nikkolo
Its beautiful, a mix of already successfully designs from Omega, Oris, Tudor etc.
Absolutely beautiful piece.

Absolutely and it looks amazing and will patina in time.
I came for the review and thought, "This guy is fantastic!" Cheers!
Cheers Nate...All the best
A friend gave me a blue guild Neptune III and it’s one of my favorite watches. Probably the best gift ever. The Tudor BB58 is my next goal.
It is quite a stunner of a watch. Enjoy 🙋🏻♂️🥃

Lauren and Lorenzo have said that it’s actually not cheaper to use plexiglass. It’s clearly a design choice rather than a cost saving measure.
Sometimes we fall out of love with a watch, but after a while we might fall in love again :) I think you'll be missing this one
I think I will too. Not so far.
Salutari Dorule.

Well now you get to enjoy both 🙋🏻♂️🍻
@@LeoVinteler i asked Santa. Santa said delivering in March.
@@FyukYiu noooo. You serious?
@@LeoVinteler Yes. Lorier’s website said delivering in March with pre orders now.
My reason is an Invicta 1953. ;). At $95, can't beat the value. I wear it more than my Omega. LOL.
I love my Neptune III but , like you, I just don't wear it. Gifting it to my son in law.
Very noble of you.
🥃 to you for that.
Epic father in law move!
the neptune looks way better than the tudor bb. Sorry, not a Tudor fan.
No problem. We all like different things. Cheers 🙋🏻♂️🍷
Excellent review but no watch can compete with bb58 at that price
Very nice and honest review my dear friend 👍😎👏
Thx V. My brother 🥃🙋🏻♂️

@@LeoVinteler thanks for the quick response! Might aswell contact the seller. Price is too high, need to negociate 🤪
Take care!
@@michel559 you’re welcome bud. Good luck with the Hydra buy 🙋🏻♂️
That watch looks very nice I’ll have to scoop one up,currently waiting on a Helson Hammerhead
The Lorier is way better looking than the Tudor in my opinion.
It’s definitely a great looking watch. 🙋🏻♂️💪🏻
For the next vid take the iPhone off hdr mode
I’d rather have the Lorier instead of the Tudor
I’ve actually sold the Tudor and I now have a Neptune V1🙋🏻♂️💪🏻
Hmm, your friend is right... Keep this mate or I'll take it off ya hands... 😂🤣
Well I guess he was right. Sold this and about a month ago I got a Neptune V1. The original Neptune. The Coolest of all 🙋🏻♂️

what would be your pick for 500 dollars instead?
