    Great looking watch. I think a black or dark burgundy alligator strap would look fantastic on this.

    Oh wow. This watch is stunning. Like another person stated, most moonphase are dressier so it’s nice to see a sportier style, and I even learned something new. Maen means “moon” in old Dutch. 🌛. Thanks for the great review!

    Fantastic watch. The only critique I have is that I think a bevel between the sides and the top of the lugs would make for a more refined look.

  • @minewasreal
    @minewasreal 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Really like the case and lugs. And I’m a sucker for a moon phase. The most romantic complication. However, in the video it looked like the chapter ring and the indices were misaligned. Not sure if that was just the camera angle? I’m aware it is a pre production but seems like a thing that a brand would make sure wasn’t an issue before sending it out for review.

    • @PeterKotsa
      @PeterKotsa  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I didn't notice it, it could possibly be the angle of the macro lens as I got in close.
      Thanks for pointing it out though, I will check it again myself 👍

  • @benjaminvis
    @benjaminvis 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I am quite convinced by your commentary on the impressive execution. Especially that bracelet seems very well judged, and also looks far better in footage than I expected from the product shots. The styling of the watch is using a combination of elements in the dial I could find pleasing, but altogether I am not so sure they work for me. Something on the dial seems off or ill-matched to me, and that quite brutal and sharply styled case with the more classical moonphase seem to pull in opposite directions. On the one hand side it makes it quite exciting, but I guess that on this occasion the sum is just not for me. Moon phases have been coming in fast. Among those with vintagey leanings I must say that it's the 35mm Raymond Weil that seems to resonate with me most. That's really towards the more petite end of the spectrum though and being an established Swiss brand and based on an award winning model, it attracts a more difficult to accept price. Of course it's also undeniably dressy, whereas this and the Loresum also permit a more casual or sporty wear in my view. Yet others, like the Mu:n, go more towards a sporty technical-to-tool vibe, like CW's moon glow, while Selten went more the essentialist dressy C1 Moonphase way. It's nice to see this diversification happen of a previously not that accessible or common complication, especially in mechanical pieces.

    Love the design! I was going to preorder one when it was coming on the bracelet, but now that it comes on a tropic strap and the bracelet is 100 EUR extra I probably won’t. A rubber tropic strap looks goofy on a 40’s inspired dress watch

  • @jaydub9509
    @jaydub9509 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Really like the design of this watch Peter. Not a huge moonphase fan in general, but when it's done well as in this case, it can be a great complication. I know this is a boring and predictable complaint, but I'd still like to have 100m WR in a sports watch so I never have to worry about an accidental soaking. However, in reality the price is probably what would deter me from buying.

    • @PeterKotsa

  • @gori277
    @gori277 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Catching up on your videos after 1.5 months away… I love the 36mm and the moon phase, both a bold proposal in the current market. Having said that In think there’s a little too much going on in terms of design and in the whole it’s a bit incongruent, namely the disproportionate lug size, in my view totally clashing and unbalancing the 36mm case size and, as you mentioned, that crown. Also not a fan of the Polerouter track, despite being an absolute fan of the original. Just not tastefully used in this case. The price, well… you said it perfectly.

    I think their pricing model changed from what you were advised as there didn't appear to be the €40 discount for the first 150 orders and it comes standard on a tropic rubber strap with the bracelet being an optional extra at €87. It didn't stop me purchasing as I still think it is worth the price.

    i am sorry but the lugs with the watch looks hideous. They strangle themselves yet again. from the brooklyn with the elongated lugs now to this. not a huge fan of their new dwarfed logo as well. these two watches have classic size but their lug design seem to tailor more to people with bigger wrist wearing a small watch. not small wrist people. they could of made this into an integrated bracelet with that kind of brutalist look but the dial look like something else and it just doesn't go well together then they have to add in a sector and a moonphase?! how many things do you want to add to this? the last two things seem like an after thought. would have been done just without those two or either those three. but not all together.
