Just watched the whole thing, seems like a very down to earth guy who is simply passionate about what he does and from the story he told a man of his word. I only wish good for this company and hope to see more from him!
Stunning Watch and such a humble Watchmaker. I really hope that he wins the Grand Prize at this years GPHG with this Watch. Look forward to meeting Simon at the Festival of Time in Waterford, Ireland next weekend. It will be a pleasure to discuss his Watch and craft with him. Excellent interview! ✊
One single word.....WOW !!! You are both amazing....Marko for your professionalism, class and gentleness with which you treat all your guests and Simon....wow Simon is a genius !!
Full of emotions watching this to be honest. Im so happy for Simon and his family that this pice is getting the spotlight it deserves. I hope many viewers can take inspiration from Simon and see that true belief in yourself along with hard work fantastic things can happen. When I first saw this watch I got a feeling that I have not felt in a long time regarding a new release. Extremely well done and the engineering is incredible. I can only hope to own one of these one day! Credit also to Swiss Watch Gang the best watch channel on youtube ! 💛💙
Already a fan just because we have the same first name 😁. Although it is not a low cost watch by any means, it's extremely well priced for it's level of craftsmanship. Simon, may this be the beginning of a highly blessed journey.
You ALWAYS have an interesting video. This watch has to be one of the finest examples of what the current generation of watchmakers can create. You have presented a watch I wish I had known about so that I could have been on the subscription. Cheers!

Wow, that’s a beautiful watch. However, if I was him, I would make it one of a kind (adding a bit more blinks to it) and sell it at higher price and make other variations (mass produce) at cheaper prices.
Max Busser said in an interview with Teddy Baldassarre that whoever comes to work for MBF, they don't leave... This guy says he was there for 3 years. One of them is lying...
Ouch, those macro shots reveal all small imperfections. Nothing you'll see naked-eyed, obviously, and no watch is perfect, so I'm not critical of the piece but rather impressed by the videography.
I was expecting over 100k so in that respect 50k seems reasonable especially against a certain large swiss manufacturer std output Im not a tourbillon fan particularly because they spoil the look and only Lange so far would temp me : till now though as that is a stunning looking watch. Fair play. As an aside there are a few women fine watchmakers working hard on making a name which I feel deserve wider attention...

Great video and such a beautiful piece! Kudos to Simon for being such a humble man and bringing the artisans forward in this amazing teamwork. I hope to meet Simon at the Festival of Time in Waterford Ireland next weekend! A "new" artisinal watchmaker to interview could be Rune Bakkendorff @bakkendorff. From Copenhagen. He has been working on a project for the last couple of years incorporating historical elements to a new wristwatch. Be the first to introduce him to a wider audience 😉 Cheers!
Which watchmaker or watch brand do you want to see on the channel?
Vincent Deprez with his beautiful tourbillon maybe ?
ludovic rohrer, herve schlüchter, petermann & bedat, luca soprana, kilian leschnik, dominique buser & cyrano devanthey, christian lass, qin gan, philippe narbel
Be aware there is a scammer in the comments. I reported it as an abuser but it is still there
Frederique constant!
Schaumburg watches! I find them fascinating, but difficult to find details about how they are made.
Just watched the whole thing, seems like a very down to earth guy who is simply passionate about what he does and from the story he told a man of his word. I only wish good for this company and hope to see more from him!
Marko. Your videos are class. You mean so much to the watch community, both independent watchmaker and collectors

There is so much emotion in this watch. Truly stunning.

The future is bright for this artisan and us addicts.
Great piece. Fun on both sides. Some unique exposures (like the keyless section) makes it a animated experience for the eye.
Wow. The finishing is as good as it gets. Love the polished, convave screws. Price is very good.
Spectacular design and execution, hope to see new models from the brand in coming years. Hopefully at a lower price point!

very very nice, it reminds me a bit of A. Lange & Söhne, same beautiful construction
You ALWAYS have an interesting video. This watch has to be one of the finest examples of what the current generation of watchmakers can create. You have presented a watch I wish I had known about so that I could have been on the subscription. Cheers!
You always present a pleasant videos, thank you for your effort
So happy for him, very cool guy, amazing watch. Hope to much much more 👍🏽🙏🏽
Beautiful. The price seems very reasonable...maybe a bit too reasonable...
So good. 100% watch of the year 2023 for me. Great guy, showing that a little humility goes a long way. Nice interview.
what a design and finishing of this watch ❤
Amazing watch and very inspirational story behinde it 👏🏻
Satovi su remek-delo 😮 bravo za video Marko ❤
The movement looks a lot like Kari Voutilainen movements. Very impressive.
Beautiful, vow!
I have never seen gear teeth cut like that before, and so perfectly also
😍😍🙌🏼🙌🏼 love it!!
St96 watch movements are available in Swiss?
Such an exquisite creation.
Superlative craftmanship.
7750…equivalent automatic K from 1947
28…rounds of rock and roll 🎸
My will for my great grand kids… 10m commercial / 2m residential and 5m s&p500.. MY MOST PRIZED ITEM!! 7750 from my cold dead hands… the movement I timed for every 30min open house and 8hour sleep every night😘…… 3 full rebuilds so far’
Sometime perfectionism is positive for entity and for the world.Magnificient.
Beautiful watch, congratulations.
Wow, that’s a beautiful watch. However, if I was him, I would make it one of a kind (adding a bit more blinks to it) and sell it at higher price and make other variations (mass produce) at cheaper prices.
Your super Mario overalls are lit
If possible interview Rexhep Rexhepi I would love 2 see that
Stunning watch!
Beautiful watch!!
Beautiful watch!
Beautiful watch!
This man is living my dream life.
Beautiful watch and great guy 😍🙌🔥
Amazing ❤
What is the face made of? How's it made?
Lust after a watch, chase, get it, bored then hunt again. Can never please the mind.
Max Busser said in an interview with Teddy Baldassarre that whoever comes to work for MBF, they don't leave... This guy says he was there for 3 years. One of them is lying...
Marco please start watch making videos please,please
I like your channel man!
I want one
Wow!
Amazin
How much is this watch?
I was the third buyer
You spend 73k usd on this watch?
@@Chad-Giga. actually a little more because of taxes and such
Congratulations... if he goes f.p. journe level. Then you'll have a master piece. And 73k is a good buy lol
Ouch, those macro shots reveal all small imperfections. Nothing you'll see naked-eyed, obviously, and no watch is perfect, so I'm not critical of the piece but rather impressed by the videography.
Price is very cheap for such a high quality 😜
How do you Servise such a watch which is such a small brand ?
I have a few Simon Brettes. They're pretty nice.
Gotta ask,why you wearing 2 watches
Price of watch = 50,000 chf
New watch = 65000 chf
73k usd? Pass
Lucky they are all sold out or he would be devastated you passed
I'm sure I can't afford it. I want it for 5-10k.. I bet he wants 10x that price
first?
Why are you wearing a leather apron though? Blacksmithing while interviewing an intricate watchmaker?
It has his name on it, thought it'd be fun since I saw it in his workshop.
@@SwissWatchGang well that explains it. ❤️
I was expecting over 100k so in that respect 50k seems reasonable especially against a certain large swiss manufacturer std output
Im not a tourbillon fan particularly because they spoil the look and only Lange so far would temp me : till now though as that is a stunning looking watch. Fair play.
As an aside there are a few women fine watchmakers working hard on making a name which I feel deserve wider attention...
I only prefer watches with a long history, at least 100 years
DEAR MARKO,
HAPPY NEW YEAR. 🙏
GOD BLESS YOU MY FRIEND. I AM VERY PROUD OF YOU AND VERY HAPPY FOR YOU. I HOPE ALL OF YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE. 🙏
I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH MARKO. 🙏

THE BLESSINGS FROM MY BEAUTIFUL FRIENDS ARE BEYOND EXTRAORDINARY AND BEYOND GINORMOUS. OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!🙏
I HAVE NEVER EVEN DREAMT OF ANYTHING CLOSE TO THIS EXTRAORDINARY AND THIS SPECIAL HAPPENING TO ME AND I WANT EVERYTHING TO COME TRUE WITH ALL OF MY HEART. I WILL ABSOLUTELY BREAK DOWN AND CRY WITH COMPLETE GRATITUDE, HAPPINESS, AMAZEMENT AND JOY. OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🙏
