You should look at the Tissot prx
Hey man, i sent ya an email not sure if it is buried, starts with court at gmail... If you want to review the WESN Allman i can send that your way... hopefully you see this comment ! If not then that's cool too figured i'd offer!
I seem to recall having some advice for you at some point which… might’ve helped you avoid this situation.
😆
One of us one of us.... Welcome to the hobby sweet watch Formex is punching way way way above there weight from the looks of it.
Nick, if I would have listened to you a year ago I’d be $20,000 richer right now 🤦♂️
shabazz: "don't get into watch kids"
also shabazz: "hey kid (MC) you want to try out this watch? just a taste is all you need..."
I’m making my guess now and by the time MC is at half a million subs he will be in a Rolex lol 😂
I’m calling it now, this time next years he’s doing an opening of his first Rolex
A Tudor or omega at least. Nick tried to tell him 🤣
@@mountainmanwatchreviews8081 Omega Seamaster and you're there, i would choose a Seamaster over a Submariner any day ending in y...And did.
@@mountainmanwatchreviews8081 Also, if you're into collecting watches and like saving a little money i highly recommend Bob's watches!
LOOOLEX!!!
That's so awesome.
Metal complex: “i shouldn’t get into this”
Also Metal Complex: *unboxes rolex next week*
I’m into wrist candy. Trust me you did good. It gets way more expensive. The $3,00 - $3,500 range gets you to the $800 - $1,200 knife range so just imagine. Great looking watch! Also vintage 60’s Swiss automatics are great buys in the $300 - $400 range. I just grabbed a collector grade 1960 Benrus for $250!
Absolutely stunning, good eye. I have a DS2000 from back in the day as Formex was still in their infancy. Hopefully with your viewership Formex will get bigger on the radar screen.
I'm glad you enjoy it mate...will admit I was hoping for a short, really fat knife in that box but I'm glad you like your watch!
Nice, I have been looking at the Essence 39. Again small wrist means lots of watches are just too big for me to wear.
I appreciate the manufacturing and aesthetics and artistry of a watch. I just can't get into them because I don't like shit on my wrist. Beautiful though.
The bezel changing feature is really cool. My favorite watches are watches that look good with different straps to give some variety, or in this case a different bezel to make it feel almost like a new watch. Love the micro adjust system on this watch as well. Something someone new to watches probably wouldn’t realize is such an awesome feature especially headed into summer. Love talking watches. Enjoy!
COSC certified, nice. Beautiful watch and you're going deeper down that rabbit hole. Take it from a watch guy
Stunning watch and excellent choice for a new collector! I’d love to have one myself! One watch I’d advise you to look at is the Casio Oceanus line. They have some amazing offerings ranging from $500-$1200 range. I just got a Oceanus manta and it truly is the nicest watch I’ve owned to date…just some ideas for the slippery slope that you are now standing on!
That bezel with the bracelet is awesome, and that black ceramic bezel with the black rubber strap is a stunner as well. Nice choice!
Congrats on the watch... the best watch modeling I've seen on the reef!
If Metal Complex isn't opening a box with a sharpened spoon, it's a sharpened railroad spike! 😂
Somehow I missed tgat you got a new scalpel and I love that it is even more obnoxious in the same way that the original scalpel was untraditional.
I've always been into time pieces. This is a rather lovely, yet still super functional piece. Very nice choice, sir.
The Formex Reef is a very nice watch. The problem is they are a gateway drug. Next thing you know we will see you opening an Oris or a Breitling. Enjoy the watch my friend.
Time for a Watch collection?
If you are going to buy expensive watches you need to be ready to lose a lot of money trying to resell, or you need to buy watches with great resell value which will be very expensive.
No judgement here... I got a safe full of pew pews that I spent waaaaay too much on. We all got our favorite rabbit holes...
Templar knives otf what are your thoughts claim to be made in texas
I am really gonna enjoy watching you go down the watch rabbit hole
Love your knife videos I watch almost all of them and I’ll love your watch videos too! I like watches and I feel like 75% of the EDC community does also
Oh god you slipped into the watch collecting rabbit hole. Welcome to the madness.
Oui loik that.....WATCH?
I really do like it. Its a good looking piece.
Bet it wont cut worth a damn though!
Didn't Nick say a 1000x not to get into watches? My birthday is coming up and my wife asked what I want...except a knife or gun. I told her I want a Hamilton Khaki. She is not speaking to me at the moment.
Now thAt is a watch 😤🤯
Nice watch,
Hey man, I thought Nick made it clear do not get into watches
Very nice watch I really like it
How sad are you that The NCAA wasn’t Texas Tech vs Kansas?
Always cover up the serial number when it comes to watches
Don't we all do nowdays😂
Why make a video tho? Cool watch tho, glad your doing well tho!
I wonder if him getting into watches has anything to do with him being a grown ass man doing what he wants with his own money? And we either choose to watch or not watch his videos because we are also grown ass people? Maybe?
You outta get a collection review from Archie 😆
gona look good while you are opening your microtech 😳🤣✌️🍺🇺🇸
Don’t you get me into watches now. I’ve never spent more than $100 on a watch before and my wallet can’t afford to. Before your channel I had never spent more than $50 on a knife and now $300-$500 is the normal knife purchase don’t do it to me with watches too. Lmfao 🤣
Nick Shabazz would be SO disappointed in you.
Dude, gonna be buying a Rolex next! Shouldn't have gotten into watches.
ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz thought this was a knife channel. Watches? *Dull*. Lane change unliked.
Ugh... start a different channel.
I saw the exact same watch on WISH for $50. lol 😂. Brother if you can afford it,god bless ya. That’s a mortgage payment and a car payment for me. As long as Mrs. Metal isn’t mad, go for it. Life’s too short brother. 👍⏱⏱🔥🔥
To be fair, what you saw was a shell. 😉
@@metal_complex I was be sarcastic 😂😂
I’ve actually been a watch collector for over a decade and just entered the knife collecting hobby this month. You and I are kinda opposites 😂
I can't even fathom doing that myself lol. I couldn't bring myself to even spend that much on a knife tbh. I love lookin at the pretty shiny Mokuti boujee stuff but can't buy it lol. Oh, and just incase no one else says it...........YOU COULD BUY A GUN FOR THAT PRICE!!!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not too bad on a per minute cost for the first year of .0034 cents (approximate).
Good looking watch and much less likely to be identified as expensive to crooks.
I'm sorry, but you lost it years ago, brother. lol
Power to ya!
That is very nice, I’m not too big on wrist bands, watches, and other things on my wrist so I’ll *hopefully* never get into watches, I could see myself get into pocket watches though.... trying not to think about it
Nice, Collecting high end knives can be an expensive hobby, Collecting high end watches can bankrupt an average person lol
Congrats... That's a beautiful watch... Since you like that style, You might want to check out Ball watch and Oris
For ex are on my hit list. I've got a Sinn 104 so the formex would not a replacement but a friend for my Sinn.
Hi , got myself Into watches since very young years around 80’s got Citizens , Gucci, Sector (Swiss made ones ) and lots of swatches etc. , them it came the plus 1000k mark to 3000k trouble coming, Sinn 104, Sinn 105 UTC, Squale 50 Atmos , Longines chronograph Hydroconquest 300 , Certina Ds Action (blue dial plus the powermatic 80black dial, all Swiss made ETA 2824 -2 plus now the Sellita 200-1 plus Sellita 300-2 , of course these are the calibres, got the Formex 39 Essence brown Fummé dial should have the 43 anyway super cool watch steel bracelet plus leather strap with that wonderful clasp waiting for a rubber strap to , and man not sure about the Reef model like it but that 9 o’clock kind of Nautilus not sure yet! Wait and go for Omega ? Or Reef model blue anyone to give a tip ( 5 blue dials 😆 already) forget my EZA microbrand German made with a ETA 2824-2 calibres 1 bronze, 1 steel and another vintage style version 1972 diver all divers only the Formex 39 is 100 meters water resistant all others are pro divers ( Certina’s are Iso certified diver like my Citizen Promaster titanium and a few more others saying that’ll a watch enthusiast for long time forget my Islander homage Seiko blue dial sapphire bezel etc etc 😆 all the best for the Producer of the unboxing what a beautiful watch by the way what is your wrist size ?
All the best to this new hobby 😆👍
Love it! Glad to see you getting into the watch side! Formex Essence is on my short list. Truly a enthusiast brand and with crazy innovations. Certainly compliments your taste in watches.
That looks really nice. So $4k watch unboxing in a few months? 😁
Insane. This this is an absolutely beauty. My first dive watch was a Movado just because my grandfather ALWAYS wore something from them. I also loved how they scented their silicone bands like either roses or vanilla and the scent doesn’t wear off for a very long time. This, however, is on another level.
I like Formex but I wish they would make like a 40 or 42 mm. It's gorgeous tho. Swiss quality baby!! You'll have an Omega in no time.
Congrats man, major purchase 👏
Interesting watch. Beside my Apple Watch, I like only Seamaster and Movado. It’s not bad.
It just Shows you how late it is! This should not cost more than 20 $.... I hear them saying 😀
Very, very nice. I'm not getting into watches...I'm not getting into watches...
MC! This video changed everything for me the day it came out 😂. I had found myself wanting a fairly basic watch for a few years, but we are talking like $13 timex. The day this video dropped I *needed* a Reef. In true new guy fashion I bought a couple watches working my way up in price, but I finally got my Reef in November, and it’s been my absolute favorite since the day I got it. 80% of my wear time for sure.
Thanks for accidentally introducing me to the brand and watch. And a new hobby 😂
So nice. For me there would have to be white or yellow gold in there to retain some value
Congrats! You might enjoy a Tudor Pelagos, next. And it’s titanium . . . .
told you rip wallet last watch video lmaoo
He obviously didn't follow nick shabazzs advice of do not get into watches
Sooooooo things escalated quickly🤣
MC's future behavioral therapist will want this video to see when the situation started gaining momentum.
"don't get into watches"
See what happens when you don't listen
Hey man, I get it. I’ve got a citizens I spent a G on. I rarely wear it. I had to save for years to get it. After two years of owning it, I asked my wife to get me a cheaper model for my birthday so I could at least wear an eco-drive daily. Good luck not being paranoid about bumping it on stuff. It’ll drive ya crazy!
‘Don’t get into watches’ and RIP your wallet. Good get and looking forward to some watch videos.
They are kinda expensive by you should check out Omega watches they make top tier watch’s close to brands like Patek Filipe, Vacherone Constantine, Alonge and Sohner, and Rolex.
Beautiful watch Hey man all that matters is that ur happy 😊 So enjoy ur new watch ⌚
I'm not trolling brotha but can I say your wearing it wrong. I've learned this recently as well but you suppose to wear the watch above your wrist bone "wrist knuckle" that way you can still maneuver your wrist without the watch digging into your hand. Hope this helps. 😎
I saw the comment Nick's Shabazz left and immediately knew what it was before the video started lol.
You own a bunch of beautiful high end luxury knives one of a kind knives but you have crappie taste in watches. I thought you would be more of a Panerai or Omega or Piguet or even a Rolex type of guy.
The crystal is probably sapphire, the bezel is probably ceramic.
I am going to dabble into the watch making adventure. There’s a company out there that sells watches in a kit form and they even include the tools.
Dude, the last year? Don’t blame me. You took the red pill didn’t you?!?!?!
No damnit... i forbid this on this channel. You have caused me to spend too much on knives as it is. Its hard to keep from my wife. I told her i didnt have a knife the other day only cuz it was one she hasnt seen. I just bought my first watch. Hamilton khaki field mechanical. I cant hide watches like i can knives
Don't start with watches lol, there is no entry level, it's just getting more and more expensive. I am the opposite of you, I got to watches and lately knives but fortunately knives are way cheaper lol.
Congrats on your first(?) chronometer! That's a very nice looking watch!
Kiss your bank account goodbye. I'm also addicted to watches and knives.
Amazing and really beautiful watch!
Next watches MC might get: Oris in bronze, definitly a Doxa Sub 300/t, and ultimately a Rolex DeepSea... And maybe we will see an Omega Moonwatch
Compared to how much you spend on knives, you would need to spend 50K on a watch to be consistent! At the end of the day we buy what we like!
Yeah, I’m already a firearms enthusiast, in addition to all of the sharp things. Now you have to go and show me a watch that’s under $3k, that I would really be happy wearing. Thanks!
I’ve been collecting watches for years, I’ve got a rolex pepsi and a submariner but I’m more drawn towards knives now 😂 we are doing the opposite
Honestly, formex watches are sick. I think you're falling into the abyss of watch collecting dude lol. Careful!
Thats a Lot for a watch :-D
I never will Spend so much for a watch but feel free to enjoy
Nick warned me about watches... 😓
1:15 French Metal Complex
super stylish
Formex offers a lot for a small budget 👌🏻
That´s like the best value for money you can get for a watch under 2k, you are in a world of trouble now :)
Now you have to learn how to SCUBA dive.
Money is so much fun. I would like to have more fun.
You need a nice watch box now. I know of a company that makes them from wood hand made too…
Ok I am done! Stupid advertising
Nice I have a g-shock and like 8 citizen watches ⌚️ guess I'm not as cool but oh well lol
Nick told you NOT to get into watches! Now you’ve gone and done it.
Nick did warn you to stay away from watches!
Damn that’s gorgeous
