As someone who is getting burnt out by the constant Rolex churn of the CZcams watch channels, stuff like this, even if completely out of my price range, is appreciated.
Have to agree. I've actually started skipping videos on favorite channels when I see another Rolex being reviewed. There are so many more examples of desirable and exquisite watches to end up so limited to Rolex.
Rolex is a safe bet to get views. Fanboys gonna leave glorification comments, haters click to leave a hate comment, Omega, Tudor fans click to say their watches are cheaper and better and all of them will start a holy war, so people will keep coming back to reply. I ofc have couple Rolex watches on my wish list among variety of other watches, but I already know everything I need to know about them.
I've mentioned this watch many times on different channels and comments and they never comment back I don't think too many people know about it but it's one of my favorite watch brands thank you for posting this
Happy to do it. Frankly it’s not the easiest brand to get in possession considering their small production numbers but have respected from afar for a while. Truly beautiful watches!
Love it!!! Stealth wealth is a great way to describe LF they don’t even show the tourbillion on their incredible grand sport!!! Cheers as ever Teddy!! Great vid!!
So many great independent brands out there. Please do more videos like this! I understand it may be hard to get independent pieces for reviews due to their scarcity! Really appreciate the effort!
Thanks Teddy for doing a piece for true watch lovers. Those that appreciates the art of independent watch making. They are super cool, especially compared to many main stream brands that are just about marketing and hype. Like the famous crown! 😎
I like everything about this video. The collaboration with Delray Watches, the coverage of independents, the production quality. Very professional, all.
I Love the smooth flowing clean lines of these watches, I've never been a fan of the rectangle watch until I saw "The Bridge One" and what can I say my son's middle name is Laurent.
My compliments go out to you Teddy and, if you have a production team that assists you with putting these videos together, kudos goes to that team as well! The professional camera work, editing and sound design in your videos is top notch, and it is one of the reasons your channel is my number one watch collecting channel. You have reviewed some stellar watches over the years that are representative of some of the great artistic achievements in horology, and so it is quite fitting that your channel also mirrors this artistry with your filming and editing.
Wow! Thank you, for sharing this one Teddy. Just saw the LP Bridge watch on the LF site. I'd love to see the bridge watch outside of a studio lightbox! Keep up the great work!
Teddy you should check out the Titoni Seascoper 600m. In-house ball bearing rotor with 72hrs power reserve, Ceramic Bezel , helium valve escapement , transparent case back and the bracelet quick adjustment is just unbelievable. All these for just a small amount of money.
Keep up the reviews Teddy, mainstream, micro brand, family owned etc. It's all good to get an insight as to what is out there with an unbiased review just stating the observations.The chance of acquiring a LF are slim to nothing for me but it's very interesting to know more about them regardless. As an aside until I started looking at your channel content I dismissed Nomos as noise as a popup that had not yet deflated into a past life, however I ended up scratching the itch and now have a Ludwig Neomatik 36 that I'm very pleased with, partly thanks to you Teddy for the reviews and comments.
Love the video, feel free to mix it up Teddy. Personally I love the watches you review that are £1000 to £5000 but love the fact you include much higher priced watches and also at the more affordable range. Some channels focus too much in one range which becomes repetitive, so it's a thumbs up from me 👍
Have never seen one in person. But apparently Laurent ferried finishing is just slightly below the finishing levels of Philippe dufour, Romain gauthier, greubel forsey. At much lower price points. The brand has also some marketing problems really picking it up in a world where some of the other independents don’t have an issue selling their watches (fpj, moser, Grönefeld, de Bethune). Anyways, great watch from a master craftsman.
Beautiful movement. Also, when you talked about not loving a watch at first sight and getting to know it over time. True statement for sure, but I hate when it goes the other way. Love at first sight and selling it when realize that it was just a "watch crush". LOL.
Keep it up with independent watch brands Teddy! It certainty rounds up beautifully your channel, gives the audience a break from the usual brands, and we all learn more about the world of watches!!
Well done for stepping out of the repetitive narrative of Rolex, PP, AP, Tag, etc and showing us some other lesser known brands. Like many watch enthusiasts, I'm unlikely to want to spend $20k+ just for the badge on the front of a watch. I want to buy a quality watch that has the distinction of being from a smaller boutique. I enjoy my Edox and my Armand Nicolet watches very much and they are every bit as good quality as the big brands.
Have you ever heard of Pequignet? They're part of the few remaining French companies that would fit in with Haute Horlogerie. Their flagship movement is their in-house automatic calibre royal, which they also have a manual version of. Their watches are certainly interesting from a design and even technical perspective, and are priced well under more famous brands like Jaeger-LeCoultre
Very nice looking watch - simple, elegant. I like their use of lume too. But if I'm going to spend that much money I'll buy a Parmigiani Fleurier Ovale Pantograph instead.
To be honest it looks like it's been heavily inspired by Radiomir, but with fancy dial. Movement is cool tho. But so is Panerai at a fraction of a price.
If a watch is more beautiful in the back than in the front... I think we have a problem. Lazy design, looks like a Geckota watch you can get for 200 dollars, and the Geckota looks even better.
3 years ago, I had the opportunity to meet L Ferrier at his manufacture in Geneva, the guy was nice until I told him I could not afford to buy any of his watches, and suddenly, he showed me the way to the exit door!! I do not like his pieces, very or too expensive! I do prefer a nice Frederique Constant, a Longines Elegance or a Raymond Weil Maestro automatic which gives you the same for 10 times cheaper!
Check out the grands sport touribillon. Kind of a homage/copy of a Nautilus, but has its own personality. Sweet watch but way too much for me. Will never see that one in the collection. Great video Teddy.
Can you review Mont Blanc watches, I own a 1858 small second from them and there hasn’t been a concise review about that watch or any of there watches. A video on the brand would be awesome
Hi Teddy, do you know if the Galet Square Boreal is a limited edition? I couldn't find a confirmation from any online publication but there's some resellers saying it had an edition of 40.
Making a panerai looking watch (case) with 30 meters og water resistens doesn't work for me, panerai did this themselves with thier (otherwise really nice) 38mm watches
Teddy, could you review the JLC Master Control Sector Dial. Is it a limited edition. Hardly any on chrono24 or other sites and such a beauty. Want to buy one but want your opionion.
Still don’t get why spending 35K on a quite simple (no complication) SS pre-owned watch with an ambiguous design, when there are timepieces that are definitely more stunning and way more significant in horological terms for the same money. Will go for Lange or Breguet any time.
Oh no no no, i’m quite familiar with this brand and that model and the price unfortunatly. Its simply stunning, and I tried looking for cheaper alternatives, have not found any that quite hit the nail on the head like this one.
As someone who is getting burnt out by the constant Rolex churn of the CZcams watch channels, stuff like this, even if completely out of my price range, is appreciated.
Yes. This one is definitely easy on the eyes, even if it's way out of my price range.
Have to agree. I've actually started skipping videos on favorite channels when I see another Rolex being reviewed. There are so many more examples of desirable and exquisite watches to end up so limited to Rolex.
The endless Roles reviews are so played out. The over hyped Crown has become boring.

Laurent Ferrier watches are utterly gorgeous the Galet square is my favourite .
Agreed and thanks for watching!
Let’s gooo Teddy! I’ve been asking for Laurent Ferrier for so long I’m so glad we got this review. Amazing video as always
Appreciate the support as always Alex! Took some time to get the brand but has been on the list for a while.
I always learn a lot watching Teddy Baldassarre, whether its a review, a monologue, or interview this is a wonderful channel for watch lovers
Love it!!! Stealth wealth is a great way to describe LF they don’t even show the tourbillion on their incredible grand sport!!! Cheers as ever Teddy!! Great vid!!
Wow. That dial looks cool!
Also I think I need a nomos
Beautiful watch. Very minimal design on front, but flip it over and the system is a work to behold and appreciate.
So many great independent brands out there. Please do more videos like this! I understand it may be hard to get independent pieces for reviews due to their scarcity! Really appreciate the effort!
Thanks Teddy for doing a piece for true watch lovers. Those that appreciates the art of independent watch making. They are super cool, especially compared to many main stream brands that are just about marketing and hype. Like the famous crown! 😎
These watches are stunning - saw them at WatchPro in London last weekend - they make 400 a year.
I like everything about this video. The collaboration with Delray Watches, the coverage of independents, the production quality. Very professional, all.
Yes! Been waiting for some coverage online about this watch!
I Love the smooth flowing clean lines of these watches, I've never been a fan of the rectangle watch until I saw "The Bridge One" and what can I say my son's middle name is Laurent.
My compliments go out to you Teddy and, if you have a production team that assists you with putting these videos together, kudos goes to that team as well!

Really appreciate this my friend!
Radiomir??
Hey teddy thanks for all the research you put into your videos. Very informative and keeps me coming back for more!
Thanks for coming back to watch!
Only just found out about this brand a few weeks ago and their watches really do not disappoint! thanks for covering :)
Wow! Thank you, for sharing this one Teddy. Just saw the LP Bridge watch on the LF site. I'd love to see the bridge watch outside of a studio lightbox! Keep up the great work!
Teddy you should check out the Titoni Seascoper 600m. In-house ball bearing rotor with 72hrs power reserve, Ceramic Bezel , helium valve escapement , transparent case back and the bracelet quick adjustment is just unbelievable. All these for just a small amount of money.
Love this modern, cushion dial. Beautiful watch and looks so good on the wrist.
there are more swiss brands than anyone realizes
I love how you and others in this space work with each other, not against. Great example.
Keep up the reviews Teddy, mainstream, micro brand, family owned etc. It's all good to get an insight as to what is out there with an unbiased review just stating the observations.The chance of acquiring a LF are slim to nothing for me but it's very interesting to know more about them regardless.
As an aside until I started looking at your channel content I dismissed Nomos as noise as a popup that had not yet deflated into a past life, however I ended up scratching the itch and now have a Ludwig Neomatik 36 that I'm very pleased with, partly thanks to you Teddy for the reviews and comments.

Love how you adapted the old intro
Have never seen one in person. But apparently Laurent ferried finishing is just slightly below the finishing levels of Philippe dufour, Romain gauthier, greubel forsey. At much lower price points. The brand has also some marketing problems really picking it up in a world where some of the other independents don’t have an issue selling their watches (fpj, moser, Grönefeld, de Bethune).
Anyways, great watch from a master craftsman.
Movement is absolutely gorgeous! 😍 Such a contrast between the top and bottom sides of the watch.😳
Beautiful movement. Also, when you talked about not loving a watch at first sight and getting to know it over time. True statement for sure, but I hate when it goes the other way. Love at first sight and selling it when realize that it was just a "watch crush". LOL.
That has to be one of the most beautiful watches I have seen in a long time. Great brand to showcase Teddy!
That OG intro music is making a comeback baby!!!!!
I absolutely love this design wow! I never heard of this brand til today , Thanks Teddy!
Yes! I'm a big fan of lesser known high horology. I would like to see more!
Simple elegance. Just need a micro brand to turn this into a sub 1K watch.
Gives me Ming vibes
Love it. I'd like to see a profile of Stowa, a boutique German maker with a history.
Keep it up with independent watch brands Teddy! It certainty rounds up beautifully your channel, gives the audience a break from the usual brands, and we all learn more about the world of watches!!
Can I ask what camera and lighting you use? Looks so good!
Pretty good Panerai homage
I think it's much more than a Homage
Exactly
The case does resemble Panerai designs, but unlike Panerai, I actually find it attractive.
Well done for stepping out of the repetitive narrative of Rolex, PP, AP, Tag, etc and showing us some other lesser known brands.

Great review Teddy! I’m interested in the round oval dial. Ice blue
Love the watch, hate the price 😁🌟
this is a stunning timepiece
Wonderful and mysterious watch! Nice case design and wonderful movement....it’s on my whishlist, thanks! 🤩👍🏻
Love this piece and the design done in blackout fashion...wish more brands would follow this form
you need to get a flame thrower or juggle chains saws. Something to liven things up. Canadian Prepper has a flame thrower! Enjoy your show .
Great video Teddy. This is a beauty!
Very nice looking watch - simple, elegant. I like their use of lume too. But if I'm going to spend that much money I'll buy a Parmigiani Fleurier Ovale Pantograph instead.
Love it! Very dressy in a cushion case.
And don't get me started about the Caseback... ♥️
Loved the content Teddy! Keep the independents coming (I would love to see something from De Bethune or Moser if possible)!
You pronunciation of "Glashütte" is getting better and better. Kind regrads - A German :)
Love the video, really enjoy independents - would love to see one on Gronefeld or FPJ
To be honest it looks like it's been heavily inspired by Radiomir, but with fancy dial.
Movement is cool tho. But so is Panerai at a fraction of a price.
Agreed and a Ming type dial?
@@hambone988ubet you mean Ming watches? Yeah, I can see the resemblance.
Awesome! Let‘s almost any PP blush.
Great video - love the reviews of independent watch makers!
Case and back looks like a panerai style....
Yes, but kind of in the best possible way. Not like Panerai invented the cushion case.
Yea, that's what I thought. I was waiting for the inevitable simile in the video but it was never mentioned.
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! YOUR CHOICE OF WATCHES IS EXQUISITE..
At the first look I thought it was H.Moser and Cie. But this one looks gorgeous too.
If a watch is more beautiful in the back than in the front... I think we have a problem. Lazy design, looks like a Geckota watch you can get for 200 dollars, and the Geckota looks even better.
Teddy, this is great! I would also love to see you review the new Grand Seiko GMT 4 watch collection.
3 years ago, I had the opportunity to meet L Ferrier at his manufacture in Geneva, the guy was nice until I told him I could not afford to buy any of his watches, and suddenly, he showed me the way to the exit door!! I do not like his pieces, very or too expensive! I do prefer a nice Frederique Constant, a Longines Elegance or a Raymond Weil Maestro automatic which gives you the same for 10 times cheaper!
How does the finishing compare to say Lange?
There can be a lot of the same review on CZcams so it's cool to see something a bit different every now and then.
Check out the grands sport touribillon. Kind of a homage/copy of a Nautilus, but has its own personality. Sweet watch but way too much for me. Will never see that one in the collection. Great video Teddy.
Thats one brand should have in collection
Love the minimal branding! Too big for me on wrist and in bank account.
Nice looking watch though it looks like a meshing of Panerai & Ming. Stunning movement.
Can you review Mont Blanc watches, I own a 1858 small second from them and there hasn’t been a concise review about that watch or any of there watches. A video on the brand would be awesome
Beautiful watch, but I'd go with fpj chronometre bleu, the dream dress watch, gotta win the lottery first.
Thank you Teddy !
Hi Teddy, do you know if the Galet Square Boreal is a limited edition? I couldn't find a confirmation from any online publication but there's some resellers saying it had an edition of 40.
Gorgeous watches. Thanks for the video.
Have you ever considered Ressence for a review?
I like learning about independent watchmakers every so often
Is Boreal a collaboration or something ? Or is it just something LF made? Is there any difference between the normal Gallet square movement ?
The absolute real deal
Great case size and shape in my humble opinion, would love to try it on.
Beautiful watch!
Wonderful watch . Thank you Teddy .
Beautiful watch.
I never touched an independent. The unknown.
This one is doing good business, Ming.
The LF world time is one of my top grails. And I like them because they gave Hugo Jacomet, one of my heroes, a turbillon for free.
Very familiar with how underrated this manufacturer is
Oh that is gorgeous
Making a panerai looking watch (case) with 30 meters og water resistens doesn't work for me, panerai did this themselves with thier (otherwise really nice) 38mm watches
Hey, you should do a review of the Yema Zoro G, basically a baby between a space watch, a pilots watch and a dive watch
Great timepiece , can you please cover Gronfield watches also FP journe specially would like to hear your take on his quartiz watch elegante
Absolut dream watch!
Teddy, could you review the JLC Master Control Sector Dial. Is it a
limited edition. Hardly any on chrono24 or other sites and such a
beauty. Want to buy one but want your opionion.
Very much into this, do more! 😁
Great review! Continue to review independents.
Still don’t get why spending 35K on a quite simple (no complication) SS pre-owned watch with an ambiguous design, when there are timepieces that are definitely more stunning and way more significant in horological terms for the same money. Will go for Lange or Breguet any time.
Hi Teddy, any cheaper watches that kind of looks like this? or maybe maxbill 100 anniv? thabk you in advance for your inputs!
Oh no no no, i’m quite familiar with this brand and that model and the price unfortunatly. Its simply stunning, and I tried looking for cheaper alternatives, have not found any that quite hit the nail on the head like this one.
Please review Ochs Und Junior watches!
Looks like a vintage (1960s-1970s) Russian watch. I have a Pobeda Zim that has a similar design.
Wow. I’m not familiar with the brand. Thanks for showing us something new.
When is the Sinn U50 review coming?
That is a stunning watch, love it... if I only had the money!!!
Great review, I will have to stick with my Chris Ward watches.
It reminds me of the most beautiful Direnzo DRZ-02
