Ok, while it's not my cup of tea, but as a bloke who repairs watches I'm blown away not by the design or the movement, but the execution especially the finishing, most of the people out there don't know how hard is to polish titanium especially to this standard. This s why most of the brands are not polishing Ti or only do it with accents, but honestly every type of finishing is harder with these cases. For the perfect mirror polish (zaratzu like) on Titanium you need special tools and specialized artisans also way more labour. Here it is the new trend of Titanium cased watches, so it's a disclaimer, if you scratch it, the repair will be expensive. Honestly most people are fine with some scratches here and there and as a tool watch with some blasted finishing I highly recommend this material for everybody. As a polished dress watch if you have ocd or smth just ignore this material of prepare for the bill and time it costs to repair. What's most surprising to me is there are only a few ceramic coated watches out here and I've seen some 5-10 year old Rados which were used as a daily driver, getting knocked to everything and those never shattered or scratched. Ive seen one of my costumer bashing his watch hard to a rent-bike on an accident and we saw black paint particles on the watch, but then we realised it was the paint from the bike and with a wipe the watch looked like before, w/o any harm. Why ceramic is not a big trend? Swatch group is just sitting on the perfect technology and use it mostly for the Rado watches. But thanks Mr. Hajek for these amazing -not Rado, but limited- cera-watches: Longines Hydroconquest Black Ceramic, Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Big Blue, or the Dark Side of the Moon speedy, Seamaster Black black, Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscape. Most of the bigger/better known brands made some ceramic watches, but mostly also for a limited run eg.: Zenith, Tag Heuer, Girrard-Perregaux, Tudor, Panerai, Hublot, etc. I just really want some cool ceramic Tissot PRXs, Hamilton Khaki Pilots, Certina DS Chronos and Action Divers, etc
Love all their watches ❤️ every pieces are different. You collect Rolex, ❤️, but all same casing, just different material, different colors. But those indépendant watchmakers are really creative
I don't know, technologically it is probably interesting, but watch show displays look as practical for an average guy as fashion shows. Give me Seiko Sumo any day. I just want something sturdy with good readability, not jewelry.

Thank you for sharing watches you don't get to see all the time. I'm sick of Rolex and Omega videos...

Patek philippe 5270 emerald green supremacy
Impressive, but it looks like a bathroom scale
