    Including James Brand at $679 when a CRK Sebenza can be had for $250 less should make anyone and everyone question the motives of this video.
    Nomos is nice though.

    • @timhuber2814
      @timhuber2814 Před 9 měsíci +2

      Sebenzas are objectively really great grail knives, though I’d argue an integral titanium knife is a much better pick from a premium and luxury standpoint. If this guide was focused on products with the best value than sure, Sebenza wins, but that wasn’t really the aim of this guide. And yeah, you’re not wrong about that NOMOS. Thing is stunning!

    • @timhuber2814
      @timhuber2814 Před 9 měsíci

      Also HIC wasn’t paid by The James Brand. The pick was selected based purely on the merits of the knife.

    Interesting choices…if a little unconventional. I would definitely swap the watch for a Rolex Sub ( or a quality Tudor), the flashlight is cool but too bulky imho I would do RovyVon E4 Pro Ti, the key is cool but most of us have key fobs, I would swap the lighter with a S.T. Dupont Line 2, The glasses with ray ban wayfarer because of its proven quality, the wallet with a quality Prada wallet, the Pen with a cross pen (or montblanc if you want something better) , the B&O with AirPods Pro 2.
    And there you go that’s my current EDC. I would say just as premium and more mainstream maybe?

    Cool channel.....Great video...But this Nomos as an EDC seems forced. It is more of a dress watch, NOT an EDC....I expected something more rugged, more durable, not something as thin as paper.. The lume is NOT that great, applied indices is what you would expect. As an EDC, showcasing the back of the movement is the least we care about... I expect better when I am recommended something considered as a EDC....Do better as a recommendation for EDC.

    • @bluetezeit8098
      @bluetezeit8098 Před 5 měsíci

      I mean, I don‘t know what your definition of an EDC is, but personally I think the Nomos being as thin as it is while still having 200m of water resistance and a look-through caseback is quite amazing. Yes it is more on the dressier side and yes the indices should be applied and yes all polished surfaces will be more fragile when it comes to scratches. Still the ability to wear this piece literally to anything and for any occasion makes it a pretty good edc. But I‘d love to know which watch you‘d prefer as an edc. From what you said maybe a metal g-shock?

    • @oguzhanakdogan9787
      @oguzhanakdogan9787 Před 5 měsíci

      A fully polished case is not a good choice for everyday-use except for office jobs. Fully polished cases show any dents and scratch marks easily. He does not have any idea about watches imo 😂

      @bluetezeit8098 Před 5 měsíci

      @@oguzhanakdogan9787 as I mentioned, it depends on what „everyday“ means for you. If you‘re working on a construction side, you‘d obviously pick something like a gshock, just because it probably outperforms any mechanical watch for a fraction of the price.
