Why i subscribed to Ben?
This guy is a straight up savage when it comes to reviews and only spits facts...keep it up man
Thanks mate, means a lot
Company: *sends improved products to ben*
Ben: Now let us see how shite the old ones were
Love these vids and totally agree with your points
Damn i swear youre the only grooming channel i can trust with brands/promos.
Someone who values their soul over money from the corporate overlords.
Keep up the good work Ben.
May Allah keep his heart clean
As my name is not Stan, I would literally buy one of their swiss-made watches as soon as it comes out if it rocks the stanless (not stainless) steel as an intern pun.
The automatic looks great :)
That automatic looks lovely alright! I like that finish and the shine it that gives it luster to its finish but I think it lookw slightly like a orient watch. That's my opinion. It's just the finish that makes me think so
The blue one looks like a Seiko SNKL. Thanks for the video!
Very positive change! Now, will other brands follow suit?
Hopefully. I’m also hoping Teddy Baldassarre’s documentary help change the tides
The automatic looks really nice. I would consider buying one for sure. And really glad to see that the quartz watches are massively improved as well. Though I am not a fan of quartz watches myself.
Thanks for the video...FYI 316L is an alloy designation and not a grade. There are better 316Ls than others but they have the same designation.
Do an ESNTLS review lmao
Yes I really want to know if it is good or not
Rohit Jacob Rajiv it’s good but it doesn’t last that long but that’s just for me
$475 US for the automatic?!?!? Haha, nope.
They are doing 50/ discount
You saved me from buying a vinchero and I love your views and thought on these time pieces, absolutely an amazing person
Ben I'm so jelly of your video quality! it is so clean! much of my sweet love from India
😂 you crack me up Richard haha
Sweet love from the UK hahaha
That Blue one looks like a seiko
I love it
Hey Ben, could you do a review on Taft shoes & boots?
The blue one is the top! Where can I find it?
The shade and shots fired at other youtubers... I like this guy youve got an extra subscriber
Hi bro. Can you review the Greyhours watch??
Christopher Ward has been direct to consumer for years. They are very good established brand.
And Stowa, and Laco, and Archimede and many others.
Hi,Ben . What movement is in the automatic,is it an ETA? Thanks, regards 😆😺
Probably not, ETA isnt to willing to supply their movements outside the brands owned by the same holding anymore
Hi ben been loking at automatic watches from swan and edgar is this brand any good as there is no reviews online of there watches.
Step in the right direction The Quartz ones need a price drop and the automatic still needs a lot of work
The automatic looks very good. Love the sweep hand. Whole watch looks a touch retro which imho gives it style.
Not bad. As an alternative to the current fashion watches it's pretty good. Depends on the price though as there are still Chinese brands that do offer all the specs for under $70. For the $200 to $300 range I'd probably still opt for a Seiko or Orient. Good move on them though.
I do like the peach. But the blue one is plain gorgeous.
Hi Ben!
Do Timex watches tick loud?
yes.
suckgames thats sad, thanks for the answer
Some do, some don't. Predominantly the weekender range do, though even in that range, the chronograph variants are much quieter 👍
Yes. Not all though
I've found Timex extremely loud. But the small seconds and chrono models are quiet.
they are going to market themselves now as a luxury company
the watches are probably going to be 400+ imo not worth that amount of money but they are changing things up at least
We'll have to wait and see what happens!
$475 US
The auto reminds me a lot (in a good way) of the seiko sarbs.
Is the blue one out yet?
Blue one gonna sell good if the price is right
4:56 it has to be at least 65% made in Switzerland iirc to be called Swiss made
60% now.
I question this brand. They are a marketing company. Is there REALLY a factory is Switzerland? Are they producing the product or just rebranding someone else’s? I just don’t trust them. You shouldn’t either. They have to atone for the previous junk they sold and they can send me a refund at any time😄😄
Of course. They got their Chinese manufacturers to....change the name of their city to "Swiss made", china.
The automatic is pretty sweet though. Great video
Well done Ben!
This is exciting. A watch brand that is improving its product.
Hi Ben, We would like to send our watch to you for review. Pls advice.
The automatic version is screaming alpinist to me which is great I loved the blue dial version
I saw them on Kickstarter but still wasn’t impressed. The automatic looks amazing BUT it’s always easy on the eye on camera/video. Great review Ben and I hope these influencers do not get suckered by these fast fashion watches.
I absolutely love what The 5th is doing by going full Swiss. I would absolutely support them
Off topic but what do you have on your hair? Your hair looks great.
If they can do $149 quartz, $299 automatic, we'll have a winner.
Can you review Hebring 2 watches
Can you review xiaomi's twentyseventeen watches?
They made a generate watch that every other switch watch company made and they don't come with heritage like others, I assume for price of the automatic one you can get a longines instead. Also don't know how the Instagram fashion watch folks like this design.
That automatic is beautiful
Mixed views about this. Why couldn’t they keep the sleek minimal designs but improve the materials and insides?
When i looked it up, the quartz ones still have citizen movements
5:45 seems to be missing the markers each time mate
This is the type of attitude that makes you respect a company, they could be well on their way to making history.
hey ben could you review benyar watches?
That one is on my list for sure mate, I've seen multiple annoying ads from them haha
Hi can you review brathwait please
The off white dial watch looks like a omega rail master
Blue Automatic is one I would buy. Looks the goods. The rest, nah.
Ben how about a Elevon watch?
Godspeed The 5th
Some of them I can find on ali express way cheaper I don't know who is copying who.
A lot of times you don't know what's actually on ali Express until you order it. The product could be very different from the description/picture.
Blue one is gorgeous
I don't get it, if they're still doing quartz why not go Japan instead of swiss.
I’ve sen some Swiss made watches , on a time graphed that’s worse on time accuracies than the humble Invicta watches , Swiss made means nothing to me , just a couple of words to hike a price of a watch up , may as well say pile of shite ,,, cheers shane uk 🇬🇧
I think the peachy watch, is targeted to a man who are in touch with their feminine side. No discrimination, something for everyone.
Rhonda quartz are nothing special. They sit very much in the average quartz category. Just because it's Swiss does not mean it's great especially in quartz. Let's not forget Seiko were the pioneer of quartz and to be honest for long term reliability and time keeping I would go for Seiko or Citizen quartz any day over a Rhonda quartz. ETA quartz now that is something better, much better 🤔 although I would still go Seiko or Citizen quartz
It is perfect except they don't have it
hey ben, its the lack of AR coating on the sapphire thats what weird on the quartz one
Not bad for $25 each
The auto is nice, but I think the logo can be slightly smaller.
Hey Ben you got any thoughts on Burei watches? I've noticed they have some good looking watches on the cheap side but I didn't hear about them until today. Any thoughts from anyone?
Edit: Nevermind. I just found this video th-cam.com/video/0x_id7L8dpo/w-d-xo.html
Dude this is a business model o see no reason for the criticism..or making them look bad
all of the swiss watches of the 5th are limited editions, that is the thing that I find the most disappointed.
Auto looks like a modernized vintage Tissot PR516 GL.
Chrono looks like an ugly Seagull 1963.
Don't be so late to upload video. we wait 3 weeks for your video. Haaa
I have a request to you. Please make a video about your watch collection pleaseee
$350-$500!!!!???? Hell no!!!!!! There's better watches out there and for half the price than these
Vincero is by far the best fashion watch company if they just somehow acquired a seiko movement they would be fantastic.
They do use VK movements (especially the VK64) and at least one watch uses an NH35.
Getting sick of Chinese made watches ? How dare they. Chinese made low cost is what make them ale to make profit and rip off consumer . Well now it turn Swiss made , the price for sure goes up so they can pay the marketing and branding department (typical American way - product branding over quality ) . If the price is similar to seiko and tissot, good luck to them . The fashion savvy will go for designer watch while the horology fan won’t choose them .
almost everything produces in china
Buy a case, a movement, a dial having a print Swiss Made, hands from 3rd party get them assembled in a 5 person factory, put on a shitty strap and send few pieces to TH-camrs in the name of KickStarter campaign who is going to say all is good. Asking price $300 for the early bookings which will be over in a day and later at a price $500. This had become the biggest fascinating business now a days. People wanting to buy a decent watch should never put a penny on these craps because brands like Tissot, Certina to offer a good quality Swiss watch at around $400-$500 and if someone goes to $800-$1,000 then can get a much better Mido or Longines or an Oris. A $100 can buy a nice Seiko. All real companies having centuries old history in watchmaking, having a better service facility. You buy the Kickstarter watches and something goes wrong and you have to throw the piece because there will be no one to service the watch!!!!!!!!!!!!
A Swiss manufacturer would not make the mistake of putting 'Stanless' on the engraving anywhere on a watch. There is no way these watches are 100% Swiss made.
My Seiko SARB033 and SARB035 are infinitely better than any of these ... and they're not even my best watches. Though I must admit the automatic with navy blue sunburst dial looks decent.
SHITTERS
A decent watch costs at least $2k, even that is pushing it
I fundamentally disagree with your assessment
@@BenArthur It's sad how ArchieLuxury has polluted the watch hobby.
@@williamcoolidge9884 Archie warns people against buying $500 shitters which aren't worth servicing in 5 years time, and which have no resale value
@@bmwofboganville456 He's a deranged lunatic e-beggar. Follow his advice all you want. I will pass.
@@bmwofboganville456 Archie also advises people to buy watches they can't afford. His advice is not worth taking.
