Aliexpress has tons of two tone watches with the seiko VK movement, full sapphire crystal and not sapphire coated like FP, no 3 months wait, and free shipping for half the price. Also price drop on a Limited edition means that it’s not a limited edition and you are getting had. Also you are not the first customer having to wait more than 3 months for their watch and some never got their watches nor their money back. If they’re still around I’d like to see anyone trying to return their watches after let’s say 9 years in case of any issues, good luck !! I wouldn’t touch a Filippo Loreti watch with a ten foot pole, and I’m not a watch snob, I have watches from Zenith to Casio. Dan Henry is a much better watch…. Thanks, nice video
A limited edition with price drops is a real let down. Limited editions is for exclusiveness...with constant price drops it makes u feel like just another mass marketed product
thank you for your review, I appreciate all the detail and it’s nice to hear someone say something positive about Filippo Loreti watches. I on several of them and I quite like them and I hate all the negative comments that are intended to make me feel like a fool.
Only recently gained an interest in watches and watch collecting, checked this brand out and every thing I've seen makes me want to stay well away. One of my biggest give aways is paying for shipping and your item arrives late not by a couple of days but up to months. Owners are Lithuanian and claim the watches are Italian but are in fact Chinese made. Lolz. NO THANK YOU
Yep! They say it's "made to order" to be honest Im not sure it's worth the wait unless you really like that style. Plenty of other options out there and you don't have to wait that long.
@@Marsalien100 I chose expedited shipping and it took about 15 days from memory. I think I mentioned in the video that could also be because of Covid and there was a massive strain on all courier networks.
I believe they use just in time manufacturing (which is a bit ironic considering the reputation the brand has). Mine took only 4 days to arrive though, excluding weekends with express shipping.
Oh man, you compared tthis watch with a Dan Henry... Why didn't you pick up another beautiful vintage chrono from DH. Also limited, but more important: so much better watch and company.... Please follow Ben's warchclub. He has a nice alternative now for the Fillipo😅
Hello! I just ordered the new Ascari Monza, which is very similar, how much did they took to give you the shipping info? Since two weeks have passed since I ordered mine and nothing yet.
Yeah I had a similar experience. I had to email them and then they told me it's in production and what the estimated delivery timeframe would be. I would suggest emailing them to find out where your order is at.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I have posted in depth reviews of the Dan Henry and Hoffman racing 40 here th-cam.com/video/kIDpaVxSUjY/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/1oTAolZ3hJQ/w-d-xo.html
Those are buy one get one free for $130 in USA and the Seiko movement is not real , it's a Chinese clone. You didn't honestly believe you were buying an exclusive watch for that price that would appreciate in value? You should have googled Filipo Lorreti before you bought it 😂

Hi David yes I agree I found it really disappointing too especially cause I could have had it for 70$ less. Why bother calling it limited edition

Great watch, thanks for the extra information! Look forward to more.
Thanks brother! Appreciate the feedback
Amazing! Such detailed info! Thank you 😊
Thanks a lot! Appreciate the feedback 🙂
Great Review! Very thorough! Looking forward to seeing more of your reviews! 👏🏾
Thanks so much 🙏
Love the look of the watch and it looks good on you 😊 cheers mate and Good luck
Thanks mate
Looks are probably one thing going for this watch and that isn't enough especially when they claim they're a luxury brand.
Loving the clip awesome detail!
Thank you so much 🙏
Nice review Oz!
Thanks Anthony!

Yeah I found the lengthy wait time extremely frustrating. Another disappointing thing was this perception of exclusivity but the prices kept dropping.
A review done really well!
Thanks for the feedback 🙏
3 months wait time?
Yep! They say it's "made to order" to be honest Im not sure it's worth the wait unless you really like that style. Plenty of other options out there and you don't have to wait that long.
“Made to order” makes sense for highly individualized unique watches, but not for dropshipping stuff like this. The waiting time is ridiculous.
Yeah I agree, I was getting really impatient myself
@@BasicallyWatches How long did it take to arrive?
@@Marsalien100 I chose expedited shipping and it took about 15 days from memory. I think I mentioned in the video that could also be because of Covid and there was a massive strain on all courier networks.
@@BasicallyWatches Yeah mine only took 7 days. Thanks for the info!

Thanks for the review. Great watch and I learned a lot from the video.
Thanks so much
Great video... keep it up.
Thank you mate! Appreciate the feedback
whao, the spacing of number in the bezel ring.... it's all over the place =(

The Dan Henry is much better. FL watches are expensive rubbish. I'd be interested in seeing reviews of other watches

Chinese manufacturing has improved a lot. That's a very nice finish. I still think they're a bit overpriced.
Yes agree with you on both fronts they do run some good deals every now and then
Wow that's big and gaudy .!!! How much did you get paid for your "honest" review??
Didn't get paid anything. Purchased the watch myself and did a review.
$40 worth of watch that sold for $350??
*Garbage*
shady company
