Their old pieces were so elegant and had so much charm! Two of my favorite pieces are Wittnauer. The dials are just so stunning. The movement though could use some work, to be totally honest...
Yep, I currently have two Wittnauers in my possession and they're both absolutely brilliant looking.
Just saw you hit 1k!!! Well done sir . We are both still going!
Thank you! Yeah still chooglin along! 🍸🍸
As a kid in the late 70s, I remember some game shows giving away "Longines-Wittnauer" watches as prizes.
Oh! Cool!
There seems to be an imposter on your channel Uncle Normski - some dude claiming to be Norman who states it is ‘late at night’ but he’s not wearing a hat
Exactly what I thought, Ha! I believe it’s the second time!
@@paul42667 there really is no excuse for this sort of misdemeanour eh Paul - I mean really - what next? - loose watch talk in swimwear ‘early in the morning?’
Time to hire security for the studio! :)
The ALLPROOF, what a watch! That's the type of heritage we need around today! Unfortunately, befell the same fate as Invicta. Great video and research buddy
Soo sad. Thanks a lot!
Scary collection that makes HMT look like a fekkin Rolex.....The design aesthetic of a Disney pricess, a five year olds idea of glamour....
lol!!
Those are expensive retail prices for how bad resale value is.
Yep.
Sad..... on so many levels... (but great video, as always!).
Thank you - yeah soooo sad.
Makes another reason to buy vintage watches 👌❤️
Totally!
Also - loving me a bit of wittnauer history. They did some cool LED watches too.
Oh! Cool!
Indeed Norman. US made Wittnauer was once a quality brand with a fine reputation. I would not pay what amounts to hundreds of dollars for a Chinese made pastiche.
Yep.
The have definitely gone downhill.
Yeah :/
oh man this is tough to watch
Yyeah :/
Just found a 242T at an estate sale for 5 dollars and it works perfect. Nice little investment.
Yesss! That is awesome! 🍸🍸
I believe they are Japan movement. They are owned by Japanese.
Ah! Thanks for that!
Norman my friend can you glorify Rotary for once? Im on a low budget getting into watches haha
Yeah! - I actually did a video on Rotary :)

Those new ones are just gross. Like designed by a 7 year old girl.
lol!
“I hate that I made the mistake of clicking on their website”
So you decided to punish us for it?
Wittnauer could literally do nothing but retro reissues and sell better than this…
lol! You're welcome :)
Yeah I totally agree.
😢
lol
Timestamp 947 you say the watch is 30 meters wide. That's going to fit one big M/Fer
Oops lol! Love it when stuff like that happens. 🍸🍸
