I’ve been looking for a nice watch with numbers on the dial other than a Hamilton and that type of watch is very hard to come by these days. This one ticks all my boxes, not too sure what category this will come under, a field watch has numbers and a dirty dozen does also has numbers so I will put this one in the classical watch section. Got to get one of these 👍
I think it's just a little too big for its own good. 11mm thick with a 47mm lug to lug is damn near my BB58 and not what I would consider dressy (although I do have small wrists). I think if they slimmed the case down with a different movement, shortened the lugs or made it a 36/38mm, and cleaned up the logo to just the name and no symbol, it would be far more compelling. My two cents.
Would anyone happen to know how the modified movement would play into serviceability, I'm new into the hobby and have never had a watch serviced but i've seen a few videos mentioning that its something to consider
Honestly it's very strange that you would say that the price is a negative for this watch. If anyone can find an enamel dial, blued hands and swiss movement watch for under $1000 let alone under $2000, please let me know because I'd be very interested in buying it.
Honestly while I am not in the market for a dresswatch I wish this microbrand the best of luck. They made a phenomenal product and I am looking forward to any future models from them. Looking at their enamel work I would love if they did a black dial with applied mother of pearl indices (calling back to Korean heritage).
That's a very appealing watch, and the price is alright. I'd buy this watch with an exhibition case back and a manual winding Sellita movement like SW216-1.
@@ThiHaGadgets No winding rotor means the watch can be slightly thinner, and one is afforded a better view of the movement through the caseback crystal. I don't have a manual winder yet, and that's also part of the motivation.
@@vonkruel I see. I always am afraid that the watch will stop in the middle of wearing and I will look like a fool 😅😅 at least watch should be reliable to tell time. My personal opinion though. Manual winding with power reserve indicator would be nice.
Beautiful! The dimensionality of the numerals is surprisingly amazing. If money was no object, I would customize one with a display caseback. I'm always a sucker for a small seconds subdial.
Very similar to the steinhart marine chronometer but a little more expensive, nicely executed though, enamel dial and true blued hands always looks classy.
Bought the bracelet for this as well. It's terrible, need two screw drivers to remove links and it's a pain(couldn't even get it done)...just leave it on the leather strap.
Nice watch. The face is an actual carbon copy, dial, hands, font, subdial of my great grandads 1938 Swiss Revue pocket watch that is still going strong. A real double take moment there!
@@danspencer9499 Yes! There are an awful lot of variations of these pocket watches Dan. They often made them to order. The story of mine, you might find interesting. The watch was actually made specifically for the Turkish Railway Co of the time for use by station masters timing the trains. I'd like to think it may have been used on the Orient Express line but that's just speculation. Anyway my forebear was an official with the Irish Embassy which was in Ankara but he was based in Istanbul. He received it as a gift from the Railways minister when he was returning to Ireland. It's been in the family ever since. In a crazy twist of fate, and with no real connection to those events, I attended a wedding of a great friend in Istanbul many years later, met my future wife at that wedding and now, I'm happily living in Istanbul for almost two decades. It's crazy how things work out! Thanks for the comment!! Much appreciated.
Really gorgeous watch. People complaining about the price have to realize that you’re not going to get an enamel dial for much less. Even the Seiko enamel dial models that are currently available on Joma are going for 775 and that’s like 400 bucks off retail
It’s important to remember this is cold enamel not fired. Cold enamel is labor intensive but nowhere near what fired is. That is why they are able to price at sub-$1k. Still a great watch for the money. I personally think 39mm is too large for a dress watch but I will be in the minority these days.
As mentioned already this looks like the Perpetual Watch Co SC-03 which also has real blued hands, an enamel dial with bubbly black inky numbers but runs a Seagull movement which you can see through the display caseback, oh & it's $200. It's actually better looking than this tbh.
Love how this watch looks! The solid caseback move was the correct one to me, no need to show that simple of a movement. The hour hand is slightly too long but other than that, it’s a stunning piece!
Nice watch, but yet let South Korea keep doing what they do, design watches and make them in Switzerland what will be better off for them to give Japan a run for it’s money is to do a free trade agreement with South Korea.
Dammit !! Now this is Classy and Sexy. The dial is Incredible, and this would be Glorious in precious metal (yellow or white gold) and a display caseback with a decorated rotor. For example, the Lobinni Interlaken with that beautiful micro roto and the perlage' engraving on the movement.
Being an enamel dial costs. Defects etc.. Real blued hands also costs. The modification they did to the Selita is probably the same as what Selita would do. I'm ok with a solid case back. Being Selita. It's not something that I'd drool over. They did a good job. The $100 discount places it under US customs fees. Have a similar York & Front would be the main reason I wouldn't get one.
Are you sure "-mann" isn't Jewish? My lastname is Guzmán, which is probably an adaptation from Goodman/Gutmann, which I always believed it's Sephardic Jewish, given Spain's history with Jewish immigration (I'm mexican but that just means I have blood from all corners of earth)
This is the second review I’ve seen of the Pitzmann, and I like it even more. The dial, the numerals, the heat-treated hands, the Old World elegance, it all reminds me of something that we might see from Pforzheim, in terms of looks. The problem is that for the price, one could almost get something from Pforzheim. On balance, this is a really legit attempt at a dress watch. I feel like this is a brand to keep an eye on. Maybe they’ll take the new Seiko GMT movement and do a four hand GMT with similar elegance…
I love that this watch had 100m wr, especially for looking so dressy. I do wish the bracelet version came in at $900 instead on $915, as it just is a slightly easier price to swallow.
Pretty nice looking watch there. A Version 2 at 36mm would make it a perfect dress watch....for me.

The price is right on this one with everything it has to offer. There are microbrands using NH-35s that charge that amount...

Mr j the hands are anodised which make it blue. I agree with the back could've done more but not my thing anyway.
Looks like the 30k Mortiz Grossman watch. Nice.
Mmm just a little pitzman's mustard
As of this moment, the discount code does NOT apply
Yeah if there was one I might of bought

I feel like this is a perfect Direct competitor to the new Furlan Marri automatic and Baltic MR-01 for people to consider.

Why manual, just curious?

Basically I don't care where the watch is from. I do care if quality control from certain countries is up to the task.

The Perpetual Watch Company out of Hong Kong do a very similar looking watch (SC-03) for $200. Don't really see a lot on RUclips about the them.
Very nice watch - definitely my next purchase. Unfortunately I took note of the 100$ coupon just a year after T3 shot the Pitzmann episode …
Bought the bracelet for this as well. It's terrible, need two screw drivers to remove links and it's a pain(couldn't even get it done)...just leave it on the leather strap.
I'm not into dress watches, but this is exceptional with unfussy plain good looks.

Dang! I searched for it, and although what I found wasn't exactly the same it IS awesomely similar. Nice pocket watch, too!

Most people probably don't realize that the success of enamel dials is not 100%. Cracking failure is common, and it gets expensive to produce.

Im not much of a dress watch guy but this is really tasteful watch, i think its very well priced considering what you get!

I think I just blued myself...
Beautiful 🤩 put it on a leather nato 😎✌️✌️
I'm glad that code is expired. I might have used it.
Hmmm. Not sure about the case back con. Better covered than a simple Sellita. Actually appreciate that. Price reasonable even if microbrand.
I agree I don't need to see it.
Love how this watch looks!
The solid caseback move was the correct one to me, no need to show that simple of a movement. The hour hand is slightly too long but other than that, it’s a stunning piece!
How DO they apply the hour numerals so well?!
Beautiful watch.
I really like this watch. I may add it to the list.
Nice watch, but yet let South Korea keep doing what they do, design watches and make them in Switzerland what will be better off for them to give Japan a run for it’s money is to do a free trade agreement with South Korea.
🔥🔥🔥
Incabloc is not new, nor a modification, it's been around on almost every movement since the 50's, that said BEAUTIFUL WATCH!!!

I was waiting for u to review this before I pulled the trigger lol. FYI u should jump on tim writes live stream and school them.....good day
For this price point no display back is OK. And except for high-end watches with read decorating they are overrated anyway.
Dang, missed the coupon code period. Love your stuff Time Teller!

Not my cup of tea but it’s a nice watch. I would take it for a gift but never buy one, not my style.
Thought it was Atelier Wen at first.
this kinda looks like a perfect watch
Could someone gift me a watch
Damn I love your humor in this space
Not the best entry price. Yet it is a nice piece!
smart watch 👍
Love the hat.
Beautiful!
What a beauty 🤩
Are you sure "-mann" isn't Jewish?
My lastname is Guzmán, which is probably an adaptation from Goodman/Gutmann, which I always believed it's Sephardic Jewish, given Spain's history with Jewish immigration (I'm mexican but that just means I have blood from all corners of earth)
“Man” is Jewish. “Mann” isn’t.
And furthermore- your name *is* an adaptation of Gutman/Goodman. I’m half Sephardic Jew!
@@thetimeteller hello wanted to ask you about a video you did long ago ?
The dial makes me feel like a "high grade" Seiko Presage...
...for the half price !
I'm agree for the case back, very boring.
