Concept
An inch of time is an inch of gold. Every inch of time is as precious as gold. Throughout history, gold has been the carrier of civilization and value. It has undergone extensive tempering to obtain this brilliance and texture, just like the value and meaning that time gives to life. Use the Blue Planet Gilding Version to convey how time has baptized life, making it more precious. Life is short, so how to create our own value in a limited time? When you raise your wrist, what you see is not only the time but also the value of life condensed into time.

"Fabrege hockey puck" -- ROFLMAO!! Joe, you are a gifted wordsmith as well as a talented watchmaker. Best to you and the family.
LMAO!!!!!! I love this video feed. After he'd made that statement, I couldn't hear anything else for laughing, had re-play the video to get the full review.
The marmite gag killed me 🤣
"Word salad instigator "
I personally think its awesome that CIGA got the first Chinese GPHG with this watch and I'm glad to see non-Swiss and especially affordable brands get them. What I would LOVE to see them do now is make it a bit smaller so more people like me can wear it comfortably. BTW this song was in Die Hard. I never forget a score.
It's J.S. Bach's Brandenberg Concerto No. 3.
Even when you told what time was on this watch I couldn't understand. It is anything but the watch.
It looks every bit as nice as my $3 watch from Walmart. (Some may disagree)
I totally agree 😂
Your presentation 12/10 .. the watch, too crazy for me - took me 10 years to read a normal one! 😎
Very nice, one thing I don't like is when you wind the outer dial the domed movement moves up and down.
I think it is definitely attractive. The "globe" rocked a little when you were setting the time which concerns me.
I’m so dumb; when I first saw the title of this video I thought YOU had 68 hours to make that dial and I was like this is gonna be a wild banger of an episode!! Haha great vid
"You either hate it or don't like it." That makes sense, and New Zealand should be in the very centre. We're often ignored. Peace and blessing to you too, my brother.
A beauty of a novelty watch. Love the black and yellow gold. One needs an appropriate social life to want a watch like this. Very crazy rich Asian.
What a massive watch. It's a sun dial surely !!!!!!
@BreatheScotland didn’t think about trying to tell the time in the dark, wonder how that works ?? Or does it.
Hmm, well 'the value of time' to me means a watch that could save my life: Breitling Emergency and for travel, a Rolex GMT Master II. The Breitling twice saved my life and my old "Rolly" has stood up to everyday punishment when I'm not working. But that thing which is described as a 'Fabergé hockey puck' would find itself whistling straight to the bin. _Am not a fan_ , for no matter how much 24ct gold leaf was applied, I'll bet my cheapest Casio would be more accurate. Otherwise another delightful video. I love your remarks, but most of all your excellent watchmaking skills. All the very best from Wendi UK 🌻
Thank you 🙏 the Breitling emergency is a cool watch
@@NekkidWatchmaker Very expensive is their 'emergency', but I'm a navy trained chopper pilot _and_ a trauma surgeon with an air ambulance charity, and there is no price to life. Thank you so much for replying. May you travel well and be safe! ~Wendi 🌻
I love your comment on the value of time. It is completely irreplaceable, so how much is even one second worth? Priceless.
I have a firend that melted down four inches of gold leaf. Into a pile shape. He tested it and was having trouble with the acid test. So he took it in to have it tested and it came back as not gold. Copper, zink and something else
Friends dad is a sign writer and he told me artificial gold leaf is very common nowadays, you can still get the real thing but it's much more expensive
Jah. I think that the wordsmith just got me on another watch. Beautiful piece of work. I'm in. Thanks Nekkid.
"Faberge hockey puck "...That is true objectivity, Joe. Cheers 🍻!
I purchased the Titanium World Earth Day Special Edition in 2022 and am very happy with it 👌🏾
Thanks Joe 👍🏾
“You either hate it, or you don’t like it” 😂😂😂 that says it all❤
You are exactly right on your time observation. I tell young people when people are on their deathbed. They all want the same thing. It’s not another real estate deal. It’s not a fine dining experience, or a hot stock tip. Millionaires or poor people all just ask for more time. Use it wisely. Don’t ever let anybody waste your time. Make memories with the time that you have.
Love your channel thank you so much! I admire your skill sets and bringing old watches back to life. Chris in Miami.
The review of the product exceeds the product itself!
To me the watch falls into the category of just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.
You mean tasteless?
Agree…big and ugly, imho.
I actually like it.
Some say we should buy Rolex only, should we?
@@kuongsam2314 If that's what you want, I won't stop you. If you like it that's your opinion and no one else to say otherwise.
so happy to see a new video of yours, it's always a treat!!
Thank you 🙏
its a beautiful piece but I personally prefer the blue planet version as its more striking I think
When the conversation started by the CIGA comes to an end, I would retreat to a quiet corner of the room, slip it into my pocket and revert back to my Apple watch.
*Awesome, fabulous and your voice keeps us all drawn into your videos.*
😮 Amazing price for such a watch .Thank you for your superb review .def made my choice easy
Joe, you surpass yourself every time you post! Brilliant commentary ... 💯 👏
Thanks mate
Toasted crumpet, buttered with 5 drops of Lee and Perrin’s arranged 2,4,7,11 and centre. Slather on the marmite…heaven on earth! Even though we clearly disagree about the brown stuff, I enjoyed your excellent review;)
You crack me up Nekkid, ...it's the dead-pan delivery.
I like the watch and I find the method of telling time with it common sense. It’s big, that’s true, but not too big. I know it wouldn’t be for everyone, but I’ve always liked statement pieces.❤️🤗🐝
Own the blue one. This one is great as well.
Joe, that is an incredible looking timepiece. Personally I watch you to see your skills and now you show me that you’re also a wordsmith as well. Brilliant job. Nothing but respect. You forgot to do a funny song for us though…😂
Mr Hand would agree 100% on the time thing.
The black and gold is GORGEOUS ❤
I guess its each to their own. I think I prefer the black and gold design. After all black and gold is a classic mix of colours. This said its a bit too chunky for me but no doubt it will be a conversation starter at the dinner party.
Such sage words regards the value of time. Keep these superbly filmed and spoken videos coming sir ❤
I know wristwatches are more jewelry nowadays than timepiece, but an overly-styled piece like this goes a bit further in that direction than I'm comfortable with. I prefer a wristwatch that looks like a wristwatch. :)
Not a watch I would wear myself, but that's not the point. Design is more about exploring new methods and looks. Kudos to Ciga for breaking new ground in design and having a philosophy that brings attention to what is most precious - the Earth, and, of course, time. And, thanks to the Nekkid Watchmaker for bringing us fascinating videos and a little bit of his own philosophy.
I think I need hands. Or at least the western hemisphere on it. Yes it is a statement piece but I am not sure I would invest in one despite that delightful, informative and entertaining review.
Well spoken my friend-good to see you back!!
I like the golden words you say more then anything ❤
loved that gold dial bounce......
.....................best feature ever !
WIND IT UP WIND IT UP
Joe, I REALLY liked the original silver/blue version…until I saw this gold/black version!🥰🤤 I like a watch with a point of difference as much as I like the mainstream look/looks. It’s a stunning watch up close no doubt. Nice delivery & review as always mate!👏🏼👍🏼😎🇦🇺
“WE ONLY HAVE ONE EARTH” … comes in massive amount of packaging with a fluoropolymer (“forever chemical”) wristband 😂
Guess it’s a bit out of time cause the dome is gone soon! But maybe for the one or other’s probably a nice reminder of old freeking times under the dome. 😅😊😂
It’s not always what you say it’s the way you say it down to earth as always no pun intended yes it was top notch video thanks my man
While I really admire the creativity, technology and craftsmanship, I prefer a simple watch with three coaxial hands and a day-of-month window.
"The Fabregae hockey puck" had me dying with laughter then I remembered the price and started crying.
seems easier to bump against surfaces thank you
I’m so glad I found this channel.
Resistant to 3 ATM means the watch is resistant to 20 metres. If it was 30 metres then it would be 4 ATM. Hope this helps you in the future 🙏🏼
Indeed time is a priceless gift!
i think its a nice looking watch and beinf ceramic instead of metal is a big plus for me as i have a metal allergy, tho 1800 is to steep for me being disabled
I like the blue earth silver case one
I can't remember, but did you mention the weight with the ceramic band.
Thanks for the video. My wrist is smaller, would I be able to shorten the ceramic strap?
Yes
My valuable time is best spent here watching your videos while I stitch. I like the watch. It's striking and not the mundane run of the mill copy of a Rolex.
I do like the look. Amazone only has the blue
Wow! Now that’s a bit out there for my old fashioned brain. Great review of a true art piece.
My friend…. Background in industrial/aerospace ceramic. It’s great but it’s just another media for artists to work with. Has its benefits and detractions.
What you’re providing is art on top of art! You know it.
All art should be an inlet to the soul.
YOU! Through your efforts are facilitating this. Go ahead, be humble, but you’re running on a wavelength of human understanding far exceeding the subject of your videos. I know it and others do too. Thank you for your service to humanity.
Thank you 🙏
Yeah nice different, very different having just seen a commercial where they use little balls instead of minute and hour hands.
Awesome as Always...Cant wait to see you Tear it apart!
I like both of the watches that you have reviewed, both look elegant on your wrist, and they would look good on mine as well. Have you reviewed any Invicta watches as yet?
I want a wall version, is that wrong?
It is a nice piece!
This is really such a one-day gadget.
Super cool to let a whole room full of people be amazed at what you have on your wrist.
But it is indeed nothing more than a hideous 'Fabrege hockey puck' as you call it.
It has a very high carnival grabbing machine content.
As a retired hand model, in my humble opinion, you are a natural.
David Duchovny!!??
pure comedy, haha Fabergé hockey puck
Very nice piece I'm think of getting me one it's so beautiful
It is a gorgeous watch Joe, but like the other one, I still don't know how one tells the time with it. $1899? I think I'd rather keep my Pulsar Solar that I can easily tell the time and date and buy 2 airline tickets and go to England on a holiday with my wife. Cheers to you and yours Joe.
Joe - I give you 10/10 as always. The watch itself...meh. I like the blue one much better.
Why don't they cast the base and electroplate in gold? How is shaping gold leafs for 68 hours better?
A very serious review with that classical music in the background, i was waiting Jungle is massive " Incredible by MBeat and Ali G to drop in. But on a,serious note Black and gold certainly looks better. 👌
Not to my taste Joe, but i do love the classical music in the background! 👌🏾
Beautiful watch, beautiful review! Thank you.
You had me at “ Faberge Hockey Puck”!
I enjoyed your presentation no end and Trouble is a great model. Erm ... let's say I'm probably not a target for their marketing. Tara a bit and see you soon.
Like the blue one , I’d like to own one but I’d never wear it.
Great video. Really nice case, strap and movement but bad gimmicky design. No way it takes 60 hours to do the dial unless it is a Squid Game where they are blindfolded and have to start again when they make a mistake. Also for nearly 2 grand you should be able to choose western hemisphere. Thanks for sharing. 👍
You either hated or you don’t like it that’s my favorite part
absolutely stunning
"Fabregé Hockey Puck..." 🤣 😂 😂 😂
Nice..face, but i cannot se the time
I love the video and at this point, I also love the watch. It's very pretty and a charming idea overall..
Nice one, Joe! Man, these things are weird! I'm not sure I could get used to telling the time this way, but they sure do look fancy!
I enjoyed the "Marmite" comment, but (although I never thought I'd say this) I kind of missed the usual approach with your trademark "all-singing, all-dancing routine"!😱😱! I usually make disparaging comments about your singing, but I guess, as Joni Mitchell would say, "you don't know what you've got till it's gone"!
I also missed you actually taking a watch apart and putting it back together. I know that's probably mundane to you, given how many times you've stripped watches down, but I find it fascinating in an almost *Zen-like" way! I find myself kind of hypnotised by your voice and watching you work! 😵💫😵💫😵💫
Keep them coming, Sir! I look forward to the next one where hopefully we'll have "Trouble" around! 😄🇬🇧
Thanks Phil. I was under a time deadline for the companies release date so had to play it safe. Also if I’m ever going to make it as a wrist model for a top brand, I need to show them that I can be serious too. Lol.
You've certainly got the wrists for it!!
Wish they made a ladies version cos I'd totally wear that!
I thought this was a ladies watch. Far too camp for a fella's.
The 3rd Brandenburg plays automatically when in proximity to the watch.
GREAT REVIEW AND VIDEO, TELL ALL HELLO...TELL ALL HELLO...SEE YOU WHEN...
You either hate it or don't like it. I can't decide.
What an incredible watch !

Ooh I like your Pop Swatch mate ;)
I love it! It is a beautiful piece of work.
Time is a luxury none of us can afford. 😉
Oh nice ...gold!
Like the new moon swatch then?
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Take my money 💴 please 😍😍😍 I love the watch
Very interesting. It would take me a bit to get used to reading it. It is quite striking, visually. [the ceramic band does remind me of Rado]
Insane! makes no sense at all but is just all kinds of fantastic!
Well that was very professional ish 😮 Joe. Not for me, I have neither the time or money, but I make the time for your presentations. Be well - peace ☮️
they say : - knifemakers don’t make mistakes; only shorter blades -
i'd love to own one but idk if i want to spend $1800 on one might wait a while and try to get a used one for a bargain
