Video: My Favourites and Least Favs of Watches & wonders 2023
Added 2023-04-03 14:02:30 +0000 UTCOk! So..... This one was supposed to be out yesterday, but I just didn't have it in me to edit it in time. But hey, better late than never! ^_^ So, HERE IT IS!
Now, something I wish I would have said and made super clear in this video: There really are no "bad" releases. These are insane horological machines that I honestly have no business grading lol! I think every single brand put some real thought, care, and insane watchmaking into their new releases. But these are just my personal favourites and the brands that I think really capitalised on the platform this year VS brands that didn't as much!
And of course, these are only my OPINIONS! Watches are a very... Personal, and unique to us thing! So you might completely disagree with my thoughts, and that's ok! <3 <3 It takes all kinds of kinds!
Hope you all had a gorgeous weekend! Spring is in the AIR here in the UK! How about where you live?! Is it starting to warm up a little?! :)

Coming home drunk on a Wednesday and catching upβ¦β¦ Cartier yeeees! Rolex ok not mind blowing but the Crown dun good, itβs about time π but the 1908 π Tudor BB54π, updated movement and new bracelet π white dial GMT looks good but itβs just a white dial. JLC come on sexy time πͺπ IWC love, price π€£ Petak thereβs some fire in there even if Iβll never own one. Parmigiana come on π₯π₯ Iβll never own. A.Lange & Sohne πππ Iβll never own. Orisβ¦ is not easy being greenβ¦and the 3D carbon π VC Dreams come on now Roger D bringing some fine work β¦βdrunk dials and kicks outβ¦β¦.

2023-04-05 23:49:14 +0000 UTCGringa!! So great to see you getting better and brighter each day. Must be all the luxurious treatments your man-servant James is presenting you with! HAHA For me, this year was the quiet releases, or maybe the ones not being featured on every YT channel. The Green Santos, the Rolex Sub's green dial change, the Oris Kermit, and TAG/Heuerβs 60th anniversary Carrera Chrono. Overall I give this year a 7 out of 10. Keep getting better, and Long Live the Maison!!

2023-04-03 15:43:44 +0000 UTCI know I'm turning into a Rolex fanboy. But the 1908 looked really nice. Also Chronoswiss did some nice things as well.

2023-04-03 14:53:46 +0000 UTCGrand Seiko is my favorite brand right now. Iβve purchased two in the past year. Take a look at the SBGE295. The green dial and case finishing looks spectacular. An AD near me is getting a few in this July. I agree with the last comment. You are back to pre accident form.

I havenβt seen anyone sitting on the fence woth that one π Ahhh BLESS YOU F! I am feeling a little better every day! A little less mumbles, a little more mobile!

Hope you and James have a fantastic start to your week.
