The guy got into watches because a girl make fun of him in high school… Picture that for a moment guys. I feel sorry for people like him. All that money, all those “toys” like he said, could not buy him a good personality. Let’s just not be like him, let’s take it as a lesson. The more you grow in life the more humble you’re gonna have to be. 🙏🏽
Probably the girl was trying to let him know he had a rude and misserable attitude towards life and that is very well resumed if you see a rich guy wearing a poor's man watch. When you see a rich and not even a rich guy but a classy one it doesn't matter if he wears a cheap watch because he wears his class on his wrist, on his shoes on his attitude towards life, is not just the garment or the accesory that you wear but how you wear it, your taste when you choosing it , that is why there are rich people like probably this person that it doesn't matter if they wear a £50 000 watch , it will always look like a poor's man watch on their wrist. If you notice he didn't like black , the most elegant and discreet option, the green dial of that AP is amazing but he says that is puke green because doesn't pops like the green dial of the Rolex, he associates class or taste with flashy to me is the opposite maybe for the girl who still lives in his head it is too , he is so disrespectful and classless that he even stares at the plastic empty boxes like if they were more insteresting than the watches that are being shown to him , he may knows about watches and stuff but all that knowledge are numbers and facts not class. That is why he will always wear a poor's man watch , because he is a miserable one
That client at the end of the video was so rude to Dave. Mad respect to Dave for having the patience to deal with this guy. It’s almost like he was proud of the fact that he insulted their selection of watches. There are ways to tell a dealer you’re not interested in their watches that don’t make you seem classless or snobby.
I think its definitely worth pointing out that A) not only is that Tissot movement absolutely genuine (for what its worth) but.... B) they specially used it because the movement that is in the genuine AP (caliber 3120) is also a 21,600 bph movement. Most modern ETA/Sellita movements are 28,800bph but the Tissot has a lower beat rate to add to the extended power reserve so they intentionally used it to make the hand sweet the same as a genuine watch...pretty impressive detail, really!
The fact that you know that, and can explain it in a way that it makes sense to all of us is super impressive. I was wondering about that very thing and you nailed it.
It takes all sorts to make the world an interesting place. You have to admire him for owning it, he is what he is! "Take it or leave it" LOL "a tablecloth for a shirt "classic comment"!
I feel bad for Dave having to deal with that costumer it’s literally a case of revenge of the nerds. He has PTSD from not being the “cool” guy so now he’s trying to compensate . Imagine going to luxury bazar trying to school them on watches. There’s being knowledgeable then there’s being a schmuck. He shows up in his silly outdated table cloth shirt. Respect to Dave being patient with that guy.
You don’t need everyone’s business and if you end deals because you don’t accept rudeness then it will make you more exclusive and people will want to buy from you even more. He probably is worth it for views if that is what you are aiming for.
Yes props to Dave for his patience. Dude said he was tired of being made fun of for his watches but proceeded to do exactly that to 90% of what Dave was helping him with.
*That type of customer is the most annoying -- pretends like they're gonna buy stuff but doesn't. They have a problem with everything. Absolute worst type of customer you can have. Oof. It's probably a good thing he didn't buy anything... he'd be back 30 minutes later with an issue.* Somewhat of a male Karen.
He is picky and a bit annoying, but he has money to spend and will spend it if you have something he likes. I sold watches and jewelry for 15 years…the worst customers are the ones that have NO money and try on everything acting like they are going to buy it.
Buddy you ever buy an 80k watch? It better be EXACTLY what you are looking for. Watches are a very personal thing. Don't knock a guy with money to spend, even if his personality sucks.
That last dude is why I quit doing sales . People who have no manors and think they are funny . Literally were bullied all they’re lives , made some pocket change and think they are better then everyone .
Imagine talking shit about an AP green dial while wearing a $20 costco shirt and jeans. Like, a preference is a preference. I don't like a lot of watches But... 'puke green' and 'that's a monstrosity.' The comical gagging. Dude doesn't take care of himself, wears garbage clothes. This is a personality type i've met a lot. He's the type that drives a nice car and wears a $50k watch to get over the fact that aside from being financially successful, he's a loser that can barely take care of himself.
Someone with not much money and very busy, working blue collar job with little time off, so they cannot fly out across the country and buying something worth say $200, fine, but someone with enough money to comfortably afford an AP then taking the risk of spending that much money over Facebook? Doesn't make sense to me. I smell something off here.
Brother that customer holy hell. I’m in sales and this guy is the biggest stroke you could ever come across. Window shopper, tire kicker, jack. Whatever you wanna call them. They’re the worst
hahaha that guy at the end had some serious self esteem issues :D Funny to watch though and props to dave for staying professional throughout the whole process.
Maybe the fakes will become so good that the actual manufacturers will realize that their watches are way overpriced and drop their prices. The way I see it, there would be no point of creating fakes if the real watch was somewhat reasonably priced
They fake watches that are under 100 dollars. They make thousands of them, and price them way lower. The marketing is already done, and people think they got a good deal. So many people are wearing fakes and just don't know it. They fake the Casio f91w and it costs 10 bucks.
The Inner rotating bezel on the AP has nothing to do with the movement, it’s an entirely separate mechanism that’s really part of the case. No idea why the guy would think that the Tissot movement had that feature.
Agreed with the comments.. the last guy at the end was hard to watch... I find the more money I make and the better I get in shape, the nicer I want to be to others including myself.
He used that as the Microphone for the video. He only had one in so the courtesy was given. Secondly the guy wasn’t a customer but came I. I’m I have his Fake watched looked at again.
You can see he is wearing a mic clipped to his shirt and a rule of thumb. Anyone who enters your business who isn't an employee should be treated as if they are a customer.
Loved the first AP shown to the difficult customer at around the 22 minute mark. Looking through the site, am I correct in guessing that is the 'Royal Oak Offshore Diver Limited Edition'? It really is a nice looking watch, and for me the best that Dave was able to bring out to show.
Adrian never bought a watch from you guy and actually almost sold once a watch to u guy about the watch video with the mistake you did everything 100% u took responsibility for the mistake that happened and even offered a little compensation I is clear as day light that the guy wanted to capitalize on an honest mistake,the way he spoke with u and tried basically to use and abuse the mistake I would black list him for future buys as well he was totaly rud and u did everything 100% right!!!! Here u have a publicly positive comment 😊
That guy saw a camera and thought I got bullied so let me now be a bully and try show off on camera! In reality he came across like a clown and I would have said thanks for your time good luck with your watch search!
I've been watching you guys a little while now, I love watches, can't afford mabey the cheapest ones that you got, but I wear cheap Chinese ones 😅, still tells me the time though, bless up guys 👍🏽,from Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹
Adrian I’m not sure if you will read this but I have watched 4 years worth oh GM and have come to the conclusion you have a excellent management style, your fair and even keeled giving both criticism and praise and even teaching the process of what needs to be done. I never thought you were bashing someone because I see it as you just protecting the business after all I think you want everyone to succeed as it is a win win, not every day can be great but that does not mean it has to be bad neither. Haters are gonna hate so stay your positive self. Happy Holidays to you and everyone at LB
Everyone in these vids seem so natural around the camera like it’s not even there but I’m sorry, all of Kevin’s interactions in every vid are like he’s out here auditioning for some overly scripted early 2000’s mtv reality show or a Jake Paul vlog. 😂
The fake AP was a mind blowing moment. Can we all take a step back and think for a second, what if AP has been buying movements from Tissot for many years and all they do is remove the rotor and replace it with an AP rotor. This 15703 was an unfinished product.
That’s the stupidest conspiracy theory I’ve ever heard, lol. You think watchmakers wouldn’t notice when they take the movement apart and it’s identical to a tissot?
It's not a Tissot movement. It's an ETA 2824 movement that Tissot buys for their watches, with the Tissot branded rotor. Audemars Piguet has never ever used ETA movements, and uses their own in hourse movement. It's very common knowledge.
Would love to see you step up the audio side in your videos. Quit using Rode and DJIs consumer products. You guys need like a propper sennheiser system, boom mic for those fixed possitions, separate recording. Maby its just me who hate seeing the mics in frame all the time with a "E1" sticker :) Keep making this awesome content. Feels like this could be a propper TV show. Love it, love it... Let me know if you need help :)
So this guy paid $17,000 dollars for an over glorified Tissot watch in a well made fake body. Why would he send $17,000 over the Facebook market place ? He would have been better off just buying a real Tissot watch for a few hundred dollars or gotten a homage watch from Ali express. This is sad. How can you have that kind of money and be so gullible? I am school teacher who can afford none of this stuff and just like to look at luxury watches. Yet I have more sense than to be that impulsive. I will stick to my real entry level Swiss Tissot and Ali express purchases for a few hundred bucks know that my cheap watches are at least real and reasonably priced. SMH 🤦🏿♂️
That poor guy in the end he isn't interested in nice watches, he just wanted to show up and brag he can afford them. By the way he behaves himself a Timex would be too much for him to handle, as for the Ladies he's still searching for approval, forget it, it's not the watch in the end.
I'm wondering the same question. I hear the same stories over and over again and every time I ask myself why someone buys such an item from an unknown person via an online marketplace that is intended for junk and household goods. I mean if you're on a budget and looking for a watch for $200 ok then go for it. But why not just buy such items from a verified reseller? I've seen people who bought gold from eBay dealers for half a million before testing a bar and only at the end did they find out that it was all fake.
I remember a Facebook group that offered wholesale watch deals for only $2,000. Just one sill or dill and you’d recoup your invention. That combined with some sort of a watch dealer university online training course would eliminate this sort of mistake lol
Watch dealer university so you can complete the infinity gauntlet and do dills whilst making your sills operating on zills whilst getting tugged by Lizard who's started selling watches which aren't rill?
Crazy how with the last guy the sales team said they don't open AP's as you can automatically tell they are fake. Tbh they didnt really know quickly that the $17K AP that the guy brought in until he told them AP said it was fake
With that Daytona situation, the way you handled it was wrong. Just admit it and move on. The outcome: of course you wouldn't give him the watch for 8,000. The way you talked to him over YOUR MISTAKE is the problem, which was hugely disrespectful. Accountability: just admit you talked to him poorly and move on. All of this extra deflection and calling him a scammer (when he didn't scam one bit) is crazy. He may have been an opportunist, but he wasn't a scammer. You made a mistake, stand on that. In the future, don't yell and demean other people when you f**ked up. It's simple.
There's simple due diligence required when buying a $400 watch let alone a $17,000 watch. Not being able to hold every watch in hand reddit has taught me ALOT, however its super amazing you guys offer this to customers to give them a final understanding and education. Unfortunately, some of the "trusted" guys let watches slip by too, it would be very lucrative to have a legit checking app for watches just like sneakers.
Yeah, until they make you bundle some crap that you don’t want just to get the watch that you do want. They really have your best interest at heart. Thank you for your vote as confidence. All love 🙏
That customer at the end, makes you wonder if watches are even cool or not. Goodness Gracious, real dkbag energy. Bruh needa be more discerning about that cot damn tablecloth shirt his nonna made for him. Shout out to Dave for proving yet again how much of a gentleman he really his, Even when a shit throwing monkey shows up.
I loved that Audemars platinum with the light blue dial that they showed on another video I can't find it anymore but that watch became one of my favorite watches right away. It was absolutely beautiful. Way out of my price range and something I may not ever own but a top 10 dream watch for sure. Audemars has 4 or 5 of my top 10 spots including my number 1 favorite which is the Audemars factory set Baggett diamond royal oak skeleton. Absolute favorite watch and breath taking. With the price that it is now I'll never be able to get it unless I win the lottery but I can dream and look at it from time to time in videos like this and that's ok with me. Great content and great watches keep it up 💯 👊
Serious question, why spend 10’s of thousands or even $100k when I can buy fugazi at a fraction of the price and the average joe never know the difference?
The one-upsmanship in this group is wild. It's fun to watch, but does it ever get old to live, like when you just need a break from the constant pulling out of the tape measure? Fun show, appreciate it.
Important note regarding the AP Diver scam. The movement in the AP Diver is just an ETA with a Tissot branded weight. It's not a Tissot in house movement. Also the movement has nothing to do with the diver bezel at all. At 7:22 the guy says he isn't sure "what tissot has the complications with the diver bezel" - the diver bezel isn't a movement complication. It's like a rolex diver, it's totally separate from the movement. The ETA movement in that watch is likely real, nobody would fake a Tissot movement. Nonetheless, poor guy got scammed.
I don't comment often but you guys got me into watches, someday i'll have enough disposable cash to spend on a big piece. When that happens i'll be getting it off you guys. Love the content. Much love from Ireland
I think you guys, are top tier hawk eyes within this business. It’s very important, what you men & women are doing. I respect you all, to the highest degree…. Hats off…
A friend of mine is a comedian, and he really had a point when he thanked all the haters who kept his shit popular. Your fans will comment on the stuff they like, while haters will try shitting on everything you do and accidentally promotes the shit out of it and makes the algorithms push it like crack
I always find it funny when people claim to be Italian😂 99% are like part Italian at best and have never even been to Italian but claim to be Italian people use it like it's an excuse to a ahole or rude (general statement not completely directed at the dude)
Its the standard Tissot Powermatic 80 movement with the Tissot signed rotor which is an ETA C07.111, which is actually just an ETA 2824 that has been tuned from 4hz or 28,800 bph down to 3hz or 21,600 bph to enable an 80 hour power reserve. Good little movement, they make a COSC version of it however that is just standard grade.
As a vintage guitar enthusiast,......I can tell you that, it's no different in the guitar world. The fakes are getting so fkn incredible,......unless you are well versed in authenticating an instrument???? You can get absolutely hosed. A good friend of mine bought a 2008 Gibson Custom Shop True Historic R9 Les Paul for a cool $9,500. I took about 3 minutes and made him physically ill. It was incredible though. Ali Express are churning out some superb fakes. All the little things, that used to jump out,....like logo placement, finish quality, and pickup sound. Never buy expensive goods from individuals. Always authorized or reputable dealers.
Naw, I think Adrian handled that situation with the customer that was mad really well. He wasn't going to let the customer muscle him for a watch that would never cost that much. Adrian explained the situation and even offered to help him find the watch for the correct price and even offered to give it to him at the company's cost price, I think that was extremely fair.
@@toddmurphy523 Okay, I understand what you're saying. Adrian explained to the customer why that watch was priced the way it was because they were doing a transaction for another customer that was doing a trade in. It just wasn't some random error on their website.
Pand's smoke it! As do any of the Paul Newman's...always will for me, but MB&F time pieces with all due respect to the engineering, they just remind me of 5 &10 gumball machine prizes...

It's not a Tissot movement. It's an ETA 2824 movement that Tissot buys for their watches, with the Tissot branded rotor. Audemars Piguet has never ever used ETA movements, and uses their own in hourse movement. It's very common knowledge.
Wtf if a fake is $300-$1000 and the authentics are 100k to Millions and professionals can't tell the difference. Then yea you get what I am saying.
That dude at the end was the definition of a tyre kicker. If he is such an expert he should know what he wants and just buy it.
he planning on waiting a year or two for the price to drop..... isn't he like 60 already?
Would love to see you step up the audio side in your videos. Quit using Rode and DJIs consumer products. You guys need like a propper sennheiser system, boom mic for those fixed possitions, separate recording. Maby its just me who hate seeing the mics in frame all the time with a "E1" sticker :) Keep making this awesome content. Feels like this could be a propper TV show. Love it, love it... Let me know if you need help :)
The guy at the end looking through the comments to see how well he did - 👁👄👁
So this guy paid $17,000 dollars for an over glorified Tissot watch in a well made fake body. Why would he send $17,000 over the Facebook market place ? He would have been better off just buying a real Tissot watch for a few hundred dollars or gotten a homage watch from Ali express. This is sad. How can you have that kind of money and be so gullible? I am school teacher who can afford none of this stuff and just like to look at luxury watches. Yet I have more sense than to be that impulsive. I will stick to my real entry level Swiss Tissot and Ali express purchases for a few hundred bucks know that my cheap watches are at least real and reasonably priced. SMH 🤦🏿♂️
In England we have a word for that "customer" at the end - Wanker... Well done Dave
“Facebook moderator” rofl…..
To be fair, LB showcases Marco way more causes he’s knowledgeable so it makes sense his numbers are high.
That poor guy in the end he isn't interested in nice watches, he just wanted to show up and brag he can afford them. By the way he behaves himself a Timex would be too much for him to handle, as for the Ladies he's still searching for approval, forget it, it's not the watch in the end.
Nice storyline with the fake watch😂
I'm wondering the same question. I hear the same stories over and over again and every time I ask myself why someone buys such an item from an unknown person via an online marketplace that is intended for junk and household goods. I mean if you're on a budget and looking for a watch for $200 ok then go for it. But why not just buy such items from a verified reseller? I've seen people who bought gold from eBay dealers for half a million before testing a bar and only at the end did they find out that it was all fake.
I remember a Facebook group that offered wholesale watch deals for only $2,000. Just one sill or dill and you’d recoup your invention. That combined with some sort of a watch dealer university online training course would eliminate this sort of mistake lol
I'm here for the watch diller university
Watch dealer university so you can complete the infinity gauntlet and do dills whilst making your sills operating on zills whilst getting tugged by Lizard who's started selling watches which aren't rill?
Well done to David for dealing with a client who has no filter, as he said himself. Earning his crust.
Megamind is the cartoon version of Adrian. Works in terms of his knowledge and hairline.
Crazy how with the last guy the sales team said they don't open AP's as you can automatically tell they are fake. Tbh they didnt really know quickly that the $17K AP that the guy brought in until he told them AP said it was fake
With that Daytona situation, the way you handled it was wrong. Just admit it and move on. The outcome: of course you wouldn't give him the watch for 8,000. The way you talked to him over YOUR MISTAKE is the problem, which was hugely disrespectful. Accountability: just admit you talked to him poorly and move on. All of this extra deflection and calling him a scammer (when he didn't scam one bit) is crazy. He may have been an opportunist, but he wasn't a scammer. You made a mistake, stand on that. In the future, don't yell and demean other people when you f**ked up. It's simple.
Donnie Haines! And Matt! The Archieverse just expanded. Now canon.
There's simple due diligence required when buying a $400 watch let alone a $17,000 watch. Not being able to hold every watch in hand reddit has taught me ALOT, however its super amazing you guys offer this to customers to give them a final understanding and education. Unfortunately, some of the "trusted" guys let watches slip by too, it would be very lucrative to have a legit checking app for watches just like sneakers.
@@MattyVicewonder if that's a typo or if he really says yet alone irl... probably the latter lol totally kidding........
You guys are straight up real. Keep doing what you do.
Buy the seller not the watch. Great advice! That’s why you should buy from an AD or boutique
Buying from any reseller over MSRP IS getting scammed lol 😂
Yeah, until they make you bundle some crap that you don’t want just to get the watch that you do want.
They really have your best interest at heart.
Thank you for your vote as confidence. All love 🙏
have you been to one bro? store is mostly empty for 3 years now
@@danielwhoI oh no whey got watches, but Scubags don’t want to sell them for msrp to average Joe
I haven’t got a lot of knowledge about watches but I’m learning.I love watching your content it’s very informative
That customer at the end, makes you wonder if watches are even cool or not. Goodness Gracious, real dkbag energy. Bruh needa be more discerning about that cot damn tablecloth shirt his nonna made for him. Shout out to Dave for proving yet again how much of a gentleman he really his, Even when a shit throwing monkey shows up.
I loved that Audemars platinum with the light blue dial that they showed on another video I can't find it anymore but that watch became one of my favorite watches right away. It was absolutely beautiful. Way out of my price range and something I may not ever own but a top 10 dream watch for sure. Audemars has 4 or 5 of my top 10 spots including my number 1 favorite which is the Audemars factory set Baggett diamond royal oak skeleton. Absolute favorite watch and breath taking. With the price that it is now I'll never be able to get it unless I win the lottery but I can dream and look at it from time to time in videos like this and that's ok with me. Great content and great watches keep it up 💯 👊
who the f would actually say you got them through their depression
Are you new to the internet?
Serious question, why spend 10’s of thousands or even $100k when I can buy fugazi at a fraction of the price and the average joe never know the difference?
because at the end of the day you’re lying to yourself and still wearing a broke watch
FAKE VIDEO. This was totally set up, wiith the fake AP. Hilarious
The one-upsmanship in this group is wild. It's fun to watch, but does it ever get old to live, like when you just need a break from the constant pulling out of the tape measure? Fun show, appreciate it.
Adrian the serial killer
Loving the show guys. Beginner watch collector in the UK.
Lets be honest, from the way he looks we know it wasnt because of the watch they were making fun of him 😂😂😂😂
I was cringing at the revenge nerd in here.
If I was that buyer, I’d be going straight to the police and opening a fraud case
You talking about the AP? If so, I think you meant to say if you were the buyer. Right?
@@helimx Bah he's pulling the Uno reverse lol. Sell a fake watch then sue the guy for fraud when he complains :D
@@helimx yea 🤦♂️ whoops
Adrian tried to look like he did not care about the comments but he was very salty LOL
Must be from Tuggs at TPG
I just love this program ...as an Ex- Rolex owner I'm totally hooked !
Did Anthony Farrer sell this to him?
0:10 “I knew from smelling the box that the watch was fake.” “Before he even brought the watch inside the shop I could sense the faux energy!”
Shocking, but why should it be a fake Tissot movement and why should the bezel have anything to do with the movement?
Important note regarding the AP Diver scam.
The movement in the AP Diver is just an ETA with a Tissot branded weight. It's not a Tissot in house movement. Also the movement has nothing to do with the diver bezel at all. At 7:22 the guy says he isn't sure "what tissot has the complications with the diver bezel" - the diver bezel isn't a movement complication. It's like a rolex diver, it's totally separate from the movement. The ETA movement in that watch is likely real, nobody would fake a Tissot movement. Nonetheless, poor guy got scammed.
I don't comment often but you guys got me into watches, someday i'll have enough disposable cash to spend on a big piece. When that happens i'll be getting it off you guys. Love the content. Much love from Ireland
I think you guys, are top tier hawk eyes within this business. It’s very important, what you men & women are doing. I respect you all, to the highest degree…. Hats off…
Only trust Anthony Farrer at time pice gentleman
Did you buy from Anthony?
having money doesnt equal having class
P.S. if i saw Marko in person, i would tell him he is a complete toss pot!!
A friend of mine is a comedian, and he really had a point when he thanked all the haters who kept his shit popular. Your fans will comment on the stuff they like, while haters will try shitting on everything you do and accidentally promotes the shit out of it and makes the algorithms push it like crack
I always find it funny when people claim to be Italian😂 99% are like part Italian at best and have never even been to Italian but claim to be Italian people use it like it's an excuse to a ahole or rude (general statement not completely directed at the dude)
Well, his parents could be Italian so who knows for sure but him. But he comes across as a know-it-all which is very annoying.
Its the standard Tissot Powermatic 80 movement with the Tissot signed rotor which is an ETA C07.111, which is actually just an ETA 2824 that has been tuned from 4hz or 28,800 bph down to 3hz or 21,600 bph to enable an 80 hour power reserve. Good little movement, they make a COSC version of it however that is just standard grade.
That last customer.. wow that was hard to watch..... can't believe people like that exist!
As a vintage guitar enthusiast,......I can tell you that, it's no different in the guitar world. The fakes are getting so fkn incredible,......unless you are well versed in authenticating an instrument???? You can get absolutely hosed. A good friend of mine bought a 2008 Gibson Custom Shop True Historic R9 Les Paul for a cool $9,500. I took about 3 minutes and made him physically ill. It was incredible though. Ali Express are churning out some superb fakes. All the little things, that used to jump out,....like logo placement, finish quality, and pickup sound. Never buy expensive goods from individuals. Always authorized or reputable dealers.
Naw, I think Adrian handled that situation with the customer that was mad really well. He wasn't going to let the customer muscle him for a watch that would never cost that much. Adrian explained the situation and even offered to help him find the watch for the correct price and even offered to give it to him at the company's cost price, I think that was extremely fair.
ANYTIME a customer can click on an item on a site, checkout AND PAY for an item, if price is incorrect the problem is the sellers, not the customers.
@@toddmurphy523 Okay, I understand what you're saying. Adrian explained to the customer why that watch was priced the way it was because they were doing a transaction for another customer that was doing a trade in. It just wasn't some random error on their website.
Just subscribed, your camera man is not great in the focus dept. Good god man! Hopefully he’s a family member they’re giving an opportunity to.
I actually like the buyer 😂 perfect example of a customer. And he firm on his taste
It could have been worse.
Tissots are pretty good and Swiss made.
Might even be a fake Tissot movement!
TISSOT DOESNT MAKE THAT SPECIFIC MOVEMENT so its a FAKE swiss movement with a fake tissot embleme HAHAHAH
Great job love the videos!
Adrienne should work more and talk shit less imo.
Pand's smoke it! As do any of the Paul Newman's...always will for me, but MB&F time pieces with all due respect to the engineering, they just remind me of 5 &10 gumball machine prizes...
