    You're the best reviewer online Pete. I do like the red stitching. First time I think I've differed in opinion from you . The limited run thing is frustrating to me. Often times when I see one, I don't have the money to pull the trigger immediately and need time to save. When I see limited run, I tend to just move on.
    Thank you for another brilliant video

      I agree Jeff, it's always been frustrating for me too, this idea of limited watches. If you really like a watch then you're pressured into a decision

    Not everyone in the world needs to know what the water resistance is or where the watch is made. If the owner needs to be remembered, put it on the caseback. More watches should have clean dials like this. I like it.

    Definitely plain black strap Pete, gorgeous vintage vibes nice & thin something different again but why oh why do limited editions,frustrating. Kudos again for continuing to find new brands to show us rather than the same old same old the other reviewers seem to do. Keep it up👍

    Agree that the red stitching on the strap wasn't necessary, but the watch is overall pretty nice. Funnily enough, I was looking at one last night on eBay, never seen one before and then your notification pops up. You won't have harmed his chances! Talking of not spending too much money on this seductive pastime, I bought my final two pieces last week. Well, as in final for now. An Addiesdive ( who TF came up with that name..) sub homage for £18.50, and a gorgeous vintage Eterna Super Kontiki. I have to say I am chuffed with both because, in very different ways, they're both super. Happy days. Cheers Pete 👍

    Very interesting company. I almost pulled the plug on the 1st series (the black/blue or the salmon dial). Simplicity and elegance, wish they had gone slightly smaller on this 2nd version. Still a beautiful classical inspired piece.

    Very much to Dumoreau's credit, at first glance all I thought was: that's a new Dumoreau! Clearly their design and thin font in runaround fashion, with the two-sector layout, is really recognisable and that's a first big win for a watch carrying a more ambitious price point. I must admit that the original dial versions were more attractive to my eye, but that is probably because this black with red accent leans into that sporty aesthetic right off the bat. I am now doubting, too, whether the original version was also 39mm or actually smaller. For me, this watch could be smaller, but in its current guise the size too underlines sportier styling. I am 100% on board with you on the strap. The Croc is not bad looking, but it's nkt the best style for rge watch. Both the cordovan-style and the flashy red suit you showed suit this far better and bring out two more distinct personalities to this design. The case is very nicely done. The polish really highlights the intrucate curvaceousness. Again I find myself wondering if something about this case changed a little from the original, but I do remember that the original also had very lovely curves. The circular pattern in rhe centre is really subtle. On my little phone screen just now I didn't get to appreciate it, but I do appreciate the tonality between the two sectors. While it's a very good watch, I still find the price point lofty, much in line with quite a few microbrands of late. Also on the secondary market their play on LEs seems to work as sellers expect top dollar for their Dumoreau. All that said, for me this thickness should permit an automatic to be fitted and when leaning into sportiier styling, larger sizing and everyday wearability I feel that would be preferable.

    I really like the look of the Dumoreau DM02...The curvature of the horns; the movement decorated with Geneva stripes and blued screws.
    By the way, Mr. Peter Kotsa, who is hiding in the detail, really? God or the devil, without any religious or philosophical dimension? Best regards, and continue to pay attention to the little things.

    • @PeterKotsa
      @PeterKotsa  2 дня назад +2

      "The devil is in the details" is an idiom alluding to a catch or mysterious element hidden in the details; it indicates that "something may seem simple, but in fact the details are complicated and likely to cause problems". It comes from the earlier phrase "God is in the details", expressing the idea that whatever one does should be done thoroughly; that is, details are important
