I've always said that if the Swiss had developed the quartz movement, it would've never been looked down on. It would be considered the best thing since sliced bread
Nowadays, it's only really looked down upon by hypebeasts and influencers. Swiss made quartz is actually pretty popular because of tools watches like Marathon, cwc, and even Bulova. That's not to mention every actual watch enthusiast channels love Casio
@@mdexterc2894 I disagree, and I encounter it in many places. It's also evident on the internet and RUclips. Some of the negative stigma has lessened because so e Swiss watch companies have embraced the movement. Trust me it's not just the hypebeasts and influencers. The influencers are still successful at influencing the negative sterotype.
Couple of things.... great review first of all! They now have a bracelet option! Just got mine. Also the rubber strap is convertible..... you can remove the pins to make it a single pass.
It only matters which strap works for you! It’s all about Rob!😇 Yeah, quartz can be cool, especially solar quartz! Mine live on a window sill on a south facing window. They’re always charged and ready to grab and wear, usually without resetting!
Love the blackout colored the overall design and for $288 it seems to be a great value. The only nitpick I have design wise is that I feel the hour hand should have a point on it as it's kind of annoying as is and too similar to the seconds hand. Everything else is great; especially the 42mm case size and solar movement.
Momentum is a great company to deal with and that watch looks great for the money. Nothing wrong with a solar quartz daily. Your strap choice is kind of “Random” though lol😋 Jokes aside it actually looks great with the orange minute hand.
Rob, you have to move the hour hand to show the Day graphic. You said your review battery wasn’t charged. To have both watches at the same time blocking a feature isn’t your best work. I Don’t get it.
Rob having handled both CWC and Momentum do you think the CWC price tag is worth it? I love these Monnin case designs. Love the video you did on the CWC bead blasted case.

Your struggles with nato straps makes me chuckle every time 😂😂
New mission is wearing Zulu straps
@@RandomRobReviews I do like a man with ambition 😂😂 it’s the sigh and fumble noise that does for me every time a watch goes out of shot with a nato
Agreed - looks fantastic with the orange digi camo strap!

Like the lovechild of Squale and CWC.
That orange camo strap is sweet!!
Well , that Strap looks like it should come with the Watch 😎
Thanks Rod that’s a great looking watch 👍

Beautiful watch, my friend.

it's a nice homage model that I really like.. I don't think it's a real wp 300.. but I still like it a lot
Looks like the website has a bracelet version for $329
Nice orange camo strap…..❤
Mine gussl The new watch is great! I've praised its realism many times. I really recommend checking out their selection.
Looks almost identical to the CWC the Marathon and the MWC at a much more reasonable price. 😊
should have kept the fixed bars
@@chanslorvalorum6905And that’s still about all they’re worth nowadays.
Looks awesome on your strap!!
That digicamo strap yeesh

It definitely looks better off the nato Rob imo 👍

Is this the same movement used in solar powered Seikos, considering the Epson connection?
How do these compare to the CWC offering? 😊
I kinda of like that one better. The elastic rubbery NATO has to go tho
They offer 3 different strap selections.
There is a bracelet option for this
Yeah they released after I made the video. For sure get with bracelet
Is that Magnum PI watch? Nice looking watch.
Yes, momentum founder also previously owned chronosport. Magnum wore the stainless steel chronosport sea quartz for the first 3 seasons
Cool watch, but that rubber nato strap that it comes on is turrible! 🤣
Good God. That strap is hideous.
