    I think comments calling it junk or cheap are rooted in bias towards China. The price point is spot on for what you get. The hand polishing on the case and bracelet as well as the hand guilloche dial make this a rarity at the price point. Movement is modified and beautifully thin. The Peacock factory makes parts for many higher-end brands. It is not a $10K-$20K watch. It covers the $3K price point nicely. Look forward to watching this company progress.

    Ok, that’s nuts. Yeah very worth the price. If I hadn’t purchased a new GS last month I would go for this. Finally a watch with an integrated bracelet that’s worth the price and time. Great review!

    Very beautiful watch, I have always liked it and was tempted to purchase when first released but the after market servicing was my main concern and still is !. As if anything were to go wrong with the movement it would have to be sent back to China or France I believe. UK customs are a pain!

    I like it alot and been contemplating buying one but was always hesitant due to the movement, it feels very cheap. Otherwise great watch, I wished to catch the red Chinese special edition but unfortunately I did not. That would have made the decision much easier for me.

    @SARX117 5 месяцев назад

    It looks great.
    Very impressive and fairly priced for the work that it has put into.
    It would have been perfect if only the movement was a Swiss made caliber.
    A Chinese non hacking unreliable movement simply doesn’t match the high quality case and dial of this watch.

      @mariobeavis9417 3 месяца назад

      @@EscapementWatch true but it's also softer and scatches more easy. Never had any issues with rust on 316L and except for actual divers who have their watches in salt water often there is NO real advantage to this steel. It's just Rolex marketing and btw if you rinse your steel watch with tab water after diving or whatever you're gucci anyways.

      yeah the Tissot which everyone and their grandmothers own, feels cheap with a build quality that doesn't even match their already "low" price is a much better watch.. I'm sure you prefer a PRX... (when you're a retard)
      Edit: you're clearly a retard thinking it looks like a hundred watches.. do you even know what a guilloche dial is? how rare they are ESPECIALLY at that price point and how many hours it takes to make a single one? 😂

    I don’t know if I’ve ever said this about a watch before, but one of the coolest and most unique things about this watch is the case back. Usually a case back is just an after thought. This one is a work of art! I love how they took every opportunity to step this watch up to the next level.

  • @Ae073001
    @Ae073001 5 месяцев назад +4

    The movement could be better, but the accuracy is no worse than an NH movement from Seiko. I really don't understand the comments. Granted, the styling may not be to everyones taste but junk, crude, or garbage? The dial is magnificent, and very, very few can do it. Its hand made and takes 8 hours alone... that is not garbage or junk. The case and bracelet look good, too, with nice microadjustment that some major watch brands won't do. Again, styling is subjective, but one without bias can tell this watch is a great effort and not junk.

    Change my perception?! I'm pro Chinese made. I prefer Chinese watches over my Swiss. I'm pro _admitting_ to being made in China, because most "Swiss" brands are merely being assembled in Switzerland from parts produced in Southeast Asia. Cut out the middle men and the fantasy of a Keebler Elf happily working away in a snowcapped workshop in the Swiss alps. I don't like the Swiss and them holding back the watch industry for 50+ years.

    There are a lot of scratches and imperfections on the dial and tweezer marks on the hands, plus a lot of dust. This is not worth the price. Good attempt though, so I give them recognition for that.
