    The caseback with that movement is the best bit about this watch. The microadjust is pretty cool too

    Its a stunner. Its got to be one of the best looking intigrated braclet watches . The micro adjustment on the braclet is the cherry on top.❤❤❤

    Excellent review Uptick. I eventually settled on the glacier Blue dial and it has become among my favorites. Cheers 🥂

    Great conclusion "for a few hundreds dollars you can make a copy of any watch, doesn't mean you are getting the same pleasure"...👍👍👍 I couldn't agree more

    @cedshred1676 Год назад +1

    I really like Czapek watches, though they are out of my price range. Major kudos for having a microadjustable bracelet. The CW does look nice but as with most watches in that budget category, the components are Made in China, other than the movement. Lots of people don’t care about that, but more and more do.

    • @emphasis20
      @emphasis20 Год назад +2

    Overall I think this watch really knocks it out of the park. The movement looks incredible, but I have seen a few reviews of the Antarctique already and it seems that date very often sits off centre (definitely more on the right of the date window). Is that your impression too? Or is this just due to viewing angles? Not sure what to think...
    Also - this vs Breguet Marine 5517 is a review I would actually pay to watch. Food for thought :)

    • @UptickWatchReviews
      @UptickWatchReviews  7 месяцев назад

      I've never touched a Breguet Marine but they're really nice watches for sure. Aren't Breguet watches built by what used to be Lemania?

    • @fifthpint4571
      @fifthpint4571 7 месяцев назад

      @@UptickWatchReviews Oooft... who knows, really. Lemania used to be a part of SSIH, but then Hayek sold them to Breguet Group at some point. Ironically, Breguet was bought by Swatch a few years later so everybody ended up in the same house anyway :) But whether a) any of the old Lemania spirit / kit still remains at Breguet, b) whether they actually still build anything and, if so, c) which calibers exactly they make for Breguet - all of that is anybody's guess. Unless you're an insider, that is, which I am not.

    Would be interested in seeing a comparison against the CW 12. They're in completely different price categories, but people won't stop comparing them.

    • @LaFonteCheVi
      @LaFonteCheVi Год назад +4

      Price picks a clear winner. Antarctique costs less than $2000 to produce and yet they sell it for what they do. The watch market has lost touch with reality catering to people with more money than sense.

    Think Czapek price is too high for what u get. Nice piece anyway but I would go with a Twelve and buy myself another Rolex on top for that kind of money.

    Keep the camera focused on the part of the watch you’re describing I.e show the dial when describing it.

    • @UptickWatchReviews
      @UptickWatchReviews  Год назад +5

      Well, I'm already worried about damaging this holding it. The Parmigiani, I worry about damaging it by just looking at it. It's another layer of little polished details. It's beautiful brand new but it's like, what sport are you gonna do with this... It's almost too beautiful for what it's meant to accomplish

    @jameshoward9700 Год назад

    I'd much rather see the movement than the face. But then I'd have to look at that under-sized, too-tall, lop-sided rotor - no wonder they had to modify the bearings...Nicely finished case, but plain face. Give me a beautiful, clever Parmigiani any day... As for the CW, much like the Chronomaster/Daytona nonsense, there's very little direct similarity, more an impression. Probably by no accident, but who cares? The design of the Antarctique is hardly original itself. There's only so many ways to copy a RO!
