I've been a subscriber for years now and I think this is my favorite video of yours of all time. Super interesting and cool looking (but impressively functional) watch! And I like the larger concept and story that you wove around it with the cyborg shtick, it framed the watch's USP very nicely.
I actually saw an ad for this watch on Facebook, some months ago, I think before it was released. I thought it was interesting and reasonably priced, but I was hesitant to be among the first... I like to read and watch reviews first. So now I think I'll go for it.
@@mcmach1 Yes for the price I think it offers a lot of value, but I have long term concerns... can the battery be changed? Will the mechanism last? But even if the answer to both questions is no, it's an interesting novelty.
I also purchased it in steel and yellow, it is an absolutely fantastic watch!!! I was very impressed by the overall quality and its finishing, a watch with great attention to detail and very easy to setting !🥰🥰😉👌👌
Just received it. First impressions are it is very well made, feels a bit larger than expected, overall very satisfied. Slight gripe is with the chronograph function. I do not like that you cannot reset it but have to go through time. Maybe they could do that one click stops it, another "slow" click goes back to time but if you do quick doubleclick, it resets the counter, both when running or when stopped. That would also fulfill the Flyback logo on the bottom.
I'm old enough to remember using a refidex, I believe that's what this design is based on. It's a very cool watch and design, props to the makers for being brave enough to conceive it and then actually make them too. Ti and bronze would also be very interesting.
Thank you so much for this amazing watch review! Thanks to you I made the decision to purchase one. I bought exactly the same as yours, but with the black leather strap. This watch is awesome, I love it so much! It’s so darned cool with all the different features and yeah, that backlighting though! You forgot one last feature, which is that it has super luminova! Awesome right! Backlighting and super luminova!!!! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣❤❤❤ Greetings from Belgium and I love your videos! 🤩👍🏼
My question and concern is what kind of rechargeable battery is used in this time piece? It will last for how many charge cycles? How can I replace the battery when it is dead? How do you think T3? Do you have any information on it?
This is what the manufacturer says: Batteries are expendable and they will inevitably decay. Although this also needs to be seen in the context of actual use, under normal circumstances our batteries will last at least five years. After that we can offer a battery replacement.
Kicked around ordering this for the last 13 days, since this video premiered. Decided to pull the trigger- hope I'm not going to be disappointed. My main concern is the battery life and if it will be replaceable.
If it truly is an in-house movement, the price is well worth it. Not completely sold on the aesthetics, but it is more to do with the size. I suspect they could not achieve a smaller version without hitting that huge pricepoint many suspected this would cost. Thanks for sharing this find with us!
Sometimes watches can all look the same. Not a fan of the skeleton case premium watches as it's hard to tell the time at a glance. This gives you function with a quick way to tell time and a "Hidden" chronograph feature. Definitely out of the box thinking. I like the silver and DLC cases, however, I'd suggest some hard ceramic colors like red, blue, green and maybe an actual gold plated version. If more people knew about these, I think they would be a home run.
Interesting watch. The mechanism seems very similar to those used in optical drives to move the laser assembly, only much smaller. The price really isn't too bad either.
You got me again TT 🤦🏼♂️ that’s four now and honestly I couldn’t be happier! This latest purchase of the MS1001 is by far the most fun but of course I still love my other three TT recco’s as well. On a tangent has anyone found any Easter eggs with the mecexp? If there aren’t no biggie, just wondering.
You need to change your address, phone number and maybe your name. Run away as fast as you can and escape the clutches of the ginger. She's probably very pretty and exciting, but that's how they hide the crazy that is in all gingers. You have been warned.
The term "chargeable" and "watch" makes me shiver. But I'm guessing this is mean for the iWatch crowd so I'll give it a pass. Overall a quirky watch and I can appreciate that.
This. As soon as he said charge it every....I wasn't interested anymore. It feels like they could have avoided it. This is why I don't wear smartwatch with its recharging and notification spam.
@@Airsoftshowoffs you all must be so fucking stupid. If my watch uses a battery I wanna be able to charge that shit. There's zero advantage and so many disadvantages to using disposable batteries.
I think this is really neat, but just don't think this one is for me yet. Maybe version 3 or 4 after the Titanium is where they will get me. The price, bulk, and features vs having a watch I have to charge feels like it is missing one more positive to get me over the hump. Just add a more ergonomic case and at that price I am jumping on it. Or add one more really neat thing it does like a temperature sensor, even though those are not accurate, that item would tip the scale and I'd purchase. 200 instead of 300, I'd stop typing this and buy it. See what I mean, this thing is really close for me to a buy. So, I'll tell my watch friends who might like this, bookmark the site and check for new models later, etc.
It's unusual and I don't find it visually offensive, it has some pleasing elements, and I think the price is reasonable considering I don't think there are many off the shelf watch parts in it. Would I buy one? Probably not. I don't hate it but I don't love it either, it doesn't really move me.
Looks likw watches on Tokyo Flash. Pretty cool I like the long charge time as opposed to having to charge daily , that I why I dislike and dont wear my Apple Watch (EVER)
Wait, didn’t you complain about the noisy rotor on the miyota movements but you are ok with this wrist greenhouse bleep blorping for no rhyme or reason?? Get a kinetic, the affordable blending of mechanical and Quartz technology.
Well done, MECEXP! I'm designing a totally unique rechargeable dive watch with 28 LEDs & a slick charging base, building them in my garage one piece at a time, and I promise it's gonna cost VASTLY more than US$299.
I was ready to dislike this, but I think it seems pretty cool even though I myself have become ancient. I think that I find it acceptable because there are still moving parts....
Don't hate it as much as I thought I would, but still 'TIHI'. It still strikes me as a very unrefined design, unrefined logo (squat in the front center of course, for that extra level of hackish-ness), unrefined edges, unrefined crown, ugh! unrefined logo on the buckle; of a very unrefined strap, very bulky and angular, design elements on the caseback that seem unnecessary at best. Nah! Miss me with that. Cyberpunk yes!, but this ain't it.
I own one, its great in a cyberpunk style. Works perfectly and super accurate
You didn't have to tell me you weren't wearing pants... I already knew.

For that price? I am actually impressed
I saw one of these watches a couple of weeks ago it was all black with green numerals and it looked very cool.
I genuinely love this thing, super fun and actually very attractive
Does it have a built-in beard trimmer?
You have 2 subs 😂
@@mcmach1 I don’t create content so that would make sense.
3 now.
4 now
@@armandr1613 you just leave sly digs for those that take time to. What's a watch got to do with a beard trimmer?

This has just become the next watch I'm going to buy, probably as soon as I'm back from my holiday.
I would absolutely buy one. I love weird watches. The more "WTF is that?"s that I get, the better.
Wow what a unique watch. May have to get one

Good point! I have also been thinking about the lifespan of the battery. But; I decided to go ahead & order. 👍🍻
Thanks for the review, love mechanical watches which I consider this to be.

Yup that’s a really cool watch. Watching the video I had expected something closer to a grand.
Me too!

Very clever and Cool gonna wait on the Titanium model 🙏
Gosh I love it , yep cyberpunk sums it up perfectly
Don't know why I love this thing so much. It is honestly a good price for what you get. I will have to pick one up!
Mine is on order! Yellow / Black w/ both the leather & rubber strap! 👍🍻
My next watch 😁
Had backed this on Kickstarter - the Ti version was fully funded last week, so will be delivered to backers.
Robbie the Robot would be VERY PROUD!!
Love it would like to wear it first before buying but looks good 🎉
It looks totally fantastic on the wrist. You will love it.
For my 27 birthday I got hamilton watch thinline late 1960
I dig it, hopefully they release a titanium in the same size cuz that's what I'd want
That's actually a pretty cool design, functional and affordable.
Interesting watch. The mechanism seems very similar to those used in optical drives to move the laser assembly, only much smaller. The price really isn't too bad either.

Ok. I’ve never seen anything like that. Less $ than I thought, too.
Neon baby !
I can't see anything on their site relating to something quite important... how accurate is the timekeeping??
My Ginger fiancee was passing by just when the video started😂....
- Gingers what? What are you seeing?

@@davidreddington4381 pics or she doesn't exist
I love it, I’m also a cyberpunk nerd geek and watch lover especially for the odd balls and weird one
Forged carbon with open sapphire back would be cool.

The only time "chargeable" and "watch" should be in a sentence together, is when the watch is solar powered
I guess you enjoy buying and installing batteries. Because if one gives you shivers the other must give you a boner 😂

I want to see the hour change. Did I miss it?
I like it. Even though I'm a traditionalist when it comes to watches, I'm seriously thinking about buying.
If it had 10 atm wr, I'd buy one for sure.
11:08 😂. Americans so used to getting scammed. Off the top of my head I was guessing $599, but I figured it was higher.
I SO LOVE THIS
Where’s the best site to purchase one ?
its a cool watch...

Very interesting!
I like it. very different.
I'd buy that and enjoy it next to my Petrol Blue Energia Vostock Europe. Great watch, where do I buy one!
No animation. It needs a second indicator , maybe 30 seconds then 30 seconds back up .

Uh Oh!! ❤ I think this is Cool!!! 🍻 Awesome review, by the way!! 😂
is ok y realy like it, but it use an standar batery easy to get you have to trow it away like any other smart watch
Did you get hair plugs?
i wish. I'm still bald, I just grew out what hair I have left lol.
Nice thermometer. Is that like a TMT thermometer where it can give you two temperatures from two zones 🤣🤣🤣
Huh you read my mind this is such a cool watch.
It looks like it was issued by the TVA (Loki series)
Looks likw watches on Tokyo Flash. Pretty cool I like the long charge time as opposed to having to charge daily , that I why I dislike and dont wear my Apple Watch (EVER)
A seriously cool watch that pairs perfectly with bare legs.
Please ask them to make a version in bronze.
@@x838nwy that would patina nicely
Wallet says you are excused, she will like it.
Cool review thx - decent price ,, I think 🎃
I’d wear that.
Can they please just make this $30.000 so I can't afford it.....
Wait, didn’t you complain about the noisy rotor on the miyota movements but you are ok with this wrist greenhouse bleep blorping for no rhyme or reason?? Get a kinetic, the affordable blending of mechanical and Quartz technology.
I would buy that. But its too thick
Really cool watch! But 48mm. It's too big for me 😂
Battery powered watches may not have a soul,but Apple is the 3rd biggest grossing watch company next to Rolex and Omega
Why does he wear the watch on the wrong wrist? Is it some kind of statement?
Yes. I’m stating that I’m left handed lol.
I didn't think it had anything to do with handedness..
Looks a little bit like having your baseball cap on backwards..
Traditionally you don’t wear your watch on your dominant hand. You’re just not used to seeing it because the majority of people are right handed.
@@thetimeteller I guess it'd be hard to write with the watch on your dominant hand.
Thanks for the video! Very interesting watch.
very cool.
Jesus that watch is massive
I mean it is definitely cyberpunk, but it's way too big for me lmao

Calling it a CNC motor is just a gimmick. You can just as accurately call them 1980's CD-player motor, but obviously that doesn't sound as cool.
