I'm one of those that wears 2 watches every day. Work watch and change for after, it's a great way to 'punctuate' the day and turn off as it were. Weekends the same but for a different reason, love them all. Microbrands: the Americans are doing some very cool things recently. I picked up kind of 3 this last year, a Brew and a Traska, and just pre-ordered a Trafford for April. Nodus also doing good things, and others too. Perhaps a focus on them at some stage? Enjoying the variety of content, keep up the good work!
G-Shock assemble their watches in a clean room environment. Specks of dust is a real issue for all watch makers and you can only remove all visible matter/ dust with a clean room and even then dust can still appear. This is an issue for people that work on their own watches as the moment you open the case you run the risk of dust getting in.
I have a few micros, including a Zelos Spearfish. I would like another but they haven't yet brought out another that's caught my eye. I have been looking at Farer and Traska recently though. C.ward is fine, but I've been disappointed by their QC before and they mostly use 2824/SW200 in their standard watches, which I dislike.
@@DesignAtelier For me specifically, the 600MK3 had a sloppy bezel (CW said it was in spec when I sent it back) and the SW200 had the reversing wheel issue (when it arrived). My co-worker had a C60 with the reverser wheel probably on arrival as well. Because they're still quite small, I suspect their returns and repair dept is not able to cope with the increased demand from returns so their repair turnaround is pretty slow.
About the more subdue mother of pearl dials comment, the less sold Zelos mop model is the mako v.3 ti dark blue mop,, selling way below the launch price also if being of a still limited batch, why? Because more the mother of pearl color is subdue/dark, more it is difficult to see the actual texture of the single slice of mop you get and the colourful shades that are together with the unique texture of each mop slice the best attractions Zelos friends find in a Zelos Mop watch 😉
They do not encourage flipping. They do limited drops. They tried a larger drop on the last run of Swordfish and everyone was mad about how long delivery took. Can’t please everyone.
@@saleendriver the owner of studio underdog actively cancels orders of people trying to buy his watches just to flip them. Zelos know which watches will be popular (only one sold out in minutes)
I bought three zelos swordfish variants in the last release ... I now have 5 of them

It is so hard to sell a watch after enjoying it for an event. I am trying to reduce my collection but it is pretty hard 😁

I think they do have their own facilities but not like the big boys like G-Shock. But yeah it can happen to anyone.
I love this format of videos, I hoe you will repeat it again in the future, it really gives value to the followers comments😄
Glad you like it. Let’s see how we can keep it up.
sir ano masasabi niyo sa inner antireflective coating ng zelos? planning to buy the blue meteorite mako sana
Ayos ang application nya! Never ako nagkaissue sa reflections ng Zelos. Buy with confidence bro.
🤔🤔
Thinking of buying a new zelos the just came out.
Question?
Are they any good?
They are exceptional builds. Also you can’t watch the video I did of them here: ruclips.net/video/WjGg6DD5XuE/видео.htmlsi=cEvA7YgRkn4vKUAw
Zelos shipped a dud to me, but the return shipping was easy enough. They respond to email within 24 hours. Waiting for a refund

I’m getting more and more reports of these QC issues with CW. Hopefully its a just a small few who got this.

I've always said that I wanted a zelos, but after hearing that they encourage flippers, I think that has changed my mind.
I think Zelos likes the idea that they do well on the secondary market.
