Loved this vid, both Peter and Austen came over as very engaged and knowledgeable. More please!

[@TOM-C.]

Total novice here, but the pocket watch has to be God Tier! With that many parts, the time devoted to design, and the actual assembly, this watch certainly deserves God tier!

[@breezyplaydutty]

Really enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing.

[@NattyKing1]

Great video 🎉

[@g.w.7893]

I like how Peter isn't even wearing a watch.

[@thereverant5203]

Grand Seiko has some phenomenal new watches in 2024. I watched Grand Seiko's video for new watches in 2024 and the brand's vision for its watches is clear and unique. I love the way they are inspired by their local surroundings. I would love your opinion on the red SBGC275.

How on earth did he get a Le Man?

Sitting in YT telling the giving the same watch as they have produced in roughly the same colour for years, a different shade of black, on the one half of a black bezel, is “knocking it out if the park” will up your possibilities.

[@TRH982]

They show up a bunch on the secondary market

1908 is very nice, but it is not a “real” guilloche, as it’s CNC engined turned… which in this price bracket, should not be the case. Furthermore, it is not CNC turned by Rolex. I bet you know who made the dial 😉

[@YukiTsunoda7]

*no offence, but when you continually compare every watch to a fucking royal oak, its like wtf, hype best ceo*
*poor taste for sure*

[@Watchdoc65]

I guess it may be time to trade in my 5500 AirKing…? Hmmmm.😊

Why are you copying Nico's ratings?

[@lirahs7763]

Stop copying Nico’s format. Be original.

[@OBZ-f7j]

Nico didn't invent it. He copied someone.

[@OBZ-f7j]

God tier is also copied from gaming decades before Nico.

[@juxtaplay]

That must be the only tier list you've seen because everyone uses that format across all industries.

[@breezyplaydutty]

You tripping.

You must be new to TH-cam
