This is a very interesting and good looking piece. I guess having that unusual case causes it to wear a little oddly as a result though. It would have been nice been nice to see it as a 38mm I think.

Guess you should’ve got serial number #1 for this year 🤣

Really nice 👌. One little design feature I noticed and loved is the counter balance on the hour and second hands, when at 10.10 they made a radius that matched/lined up perfectly with sub-dial. Chefs kiss to the designer.

Great to see another Marloe review! I don't own any of their pieces (yet) but have been very interested in their releases, and it seems to me they probably deserve more attention than they've been getting.

This watch suffers the same issue as the Hamilton Khaki Field mechanical: too flat, so wears badly compared to its stats. If it had been 36mm with a shorter L2L it would have worked, but at 40mm it was already too big to begin with.

Awesome to see Marloe back on the channel, they make some really interesting stuff and well this is just lovely isn't it. My favourite is the 52 and 76 but this is equally as nice. Love that domed rear glass as well, something you don't see everyday. Great work with the review as always.

I just bought a watch, a genuine Longines Flagship in 18k solid gold with an in-house caliber 30L that looks a lot like this. Except it’s a Longines, with the legendary observatory smashing 30L, in 18k solid gold! And it cost less, too.

I have three Marloes and love their design language. The size of this does concern me but it is a stunner.

The 12 and 6 dial with a small seconds sort of recalls the Seamaster 1948, though that sacrifices the 6 for the small seconds and has a 3 and 9 instead. In this Marloe, the clipped 6 makes it look like the 6 is rotated to the left, and that is a real clanger for a dress watch; either don't have the 6, or make the small seconds smaller. The sides are reminiscent of the Timex Giorgio Galli S1. They look good on the Timex but out of place on this. The price tag is the final nail in the coffin. I wanted to like this but it's a hard sell.

This is a beautiful piece, lots of uniqueness to it. Makes me wish I wore a suit to work because I'd love to have one.

This looks amazing -- I love the unique details on literally every surface. But the dimensions and flat lugs definitely take it out of the running for me. I wish it were a few millimeters smaller to really nail the vintage vibe.

Lovely looking classically styled dress watch - with unique touches to set it apart. If you are looking In the $1,000-$1,200 price range this a definitely stunning and impressive to consider.

Thinking of Scottish watches, have you ever fancied taking a look at a Paulin watch? A Glasgow brand, and their "Neo" is particularly cool as the dial was produced by AnOrdain - twice as Glaswegian!

Great intro! 😀 Classy watch. Very refreshing to seeing a small company bringing out a classic, old school design rather than the ubiquitous dive watches which I’m so bored of. How satisfying is the feel of the manual wind mechanism?

Absolutely stunning watch! I nearly dropped my iPad, when you started that "Kilt show".....😵‍💫😳😉 Had a look at the brands website, and they sure offer some very good looking models, and with a fair pricing.

The 33 is for Verstappen’s original (and I think way cooler) racing number. It’s a shame how his race went today. Always glad to see another F1 fan!

I’ve had a Coniston for several years and love it. Glad to see you review Marloe again. I think the first of the four is pretty sweet too. This one made me think Polerouter.

Great review 👍 . This is where reviewers like yourself are so helpful, I have admired these watches on their website, but had no idea that the case would wear like that.

Same movement as the HVD Spectre Diver... My HVD is running steady at =2/=3 sec a day, very pleased with it! Cheers

You first bought this brand to my attention and it's a great Scottish microbrand. The Atlantic is by far my favourite reminds me of the Hamilton Intramtic

I have the Marloe Coniston and love it, glad to see the brand getting some love here!

Oris Classic Date is exactly what I was comparing this with. Sellita movement as well. 42mm fits my wrist nicely around $750.

Yes! Now this is good. I like the move away from "every watch must be a diver" thing. But in so many cases, that means a field watch, or a "kind of field-watch with a plain face so its kind of a dress watch maybe". But this is a proper dress watch, a bit of high-precision mechanical jewelry. That said, a bit big for a dress watch to me...

Great looking watch , love the vintage look. I think I would of preferred polished sides though. You are right though about spending that much money on a unknown brand.

Lovely looking watch, I have to say, there is a certain vintage tone to it in the gold, great review, as usual, and I loved the uilleann pipes intro, 😉

Ok, normally I hate gold watches with a passion, because to me, most look sleezy or gaudy. That's a gold watch done right and one I would actually wear. Talk about a classy, vintage inspired piece. It's not surprising this came from Marloe. Their designs are consistently done so well.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Scotland, nearly 10 years ago now. I want to go back, and this time do Ireland as well. Beautiful pieces, but well outside my "ooh, that's cool" cap (~200 USD). I'd have like a watch enough to forego five or six others to pay this much, so I'll have to pass for now. That said, the $340 US Coniston white dial (manual wind Miyota 8N33) is gorgeous and "in reach" if I stretch just a bit.

Pretty nice looking dial for a microbrand! Not a fan of the clipped 6 or the weird bead blasted case sides though. The description of the way the watch sits on the wrist reminds me of how the Tissot Visodate wore.

Very informative video. Having insight into flatness of case design will help buyers and ultimately Marloe. Also interesting about your larger right wrist. Maybe you've worn out the left with so many watches 😃

This is beautiful. What an exquisite vintage presentation. You certainly picked the best colorway as well. This is in my 'intend to buy' category. One point here - wrist measurement. Everyone talks in terms of wrist *diameter*. That works fine for people with a round wrist cross section. Mine isn't like that. If viewed in cross section my wrist is a flattened oval. Not sure if that is genetics or the accumulation of many breaks over many years. What that means is that although the circumference is under 7 inches I can wear watches with a generous lug-to-lug size and get away with it. This style case might not suit others but it is right up my alley. Now I have to figure out what to give up to afford this one. Well done review as always!

I have this watch and can honestly say it’s awesome, I have 6.5 inch wrists and find it wears superbly, it’s not the size of the wrist it’s the shape, mine is more flat than rounded so it sits beautifully.. it’s one stunning watch and how a small company can make a watch of this quality is beyond me… if this was made by a big company people would be happy to pay much more for this uniqueness and quality… great job Marloe 👌

It's a stunning watch, but I just wish that it was smaller. With the gold tone and the vintage aesthetic, I feel like a 36 or even 38 mm would be a better fit. Especially given the way the case wears on the wrist. I definitely think that that could have been rectified by a slightly smaller, more period correct size

I love the case shape and the dial so much. I think you choose also the best color IMO.

Out of my price range but a good looking watch, you did a good job on the macro, very nice color that doesn't quite show from top down.

Woah! We almost saw double 0 and seven there! 🤣 great review and I love the watch! Great dress watch

I wish it was a 38mm or had more downturn on those lugs, but this is about the prettiest watch I have seen in a long time!

£1200 in uk. Aircraft link a bit tenuous, I think I prefer the Haskell or one of the chronographs

Fine watch, and a fine tartan! I keep saving my pennies for my own tartan- Macdara of Sleat, at Stirling.

looks way better in video than in catalogue. Perfect size

I don't love the dial, but I do like the profile a lot, and LOVE that caseback. I like Marloe generally though, and hope they continue. :)

Wow... it looks stunning, Jody. Gold+Cream+Honey mixed color on brown strap... if only Orient made a similar color palette below 150 USD

Usually a Micro over a G would attract my ire but this is quite the beauty, reminds me of vintage Omegas and modern Longines, when you say Scotch, is it assembled there? I might have gone auto and lost the movement view. Forbpeople like you who have been stung by vintage issues its a tempting proposition, very very pretty watch.

New camera equipment is really paying off, video looks great, glad to see you investing in the future of the channel!

What have you done, Jody!? After your kilt I laughed all the time while watching the video. I didn’t understand anything about the watch, because I was busy wiping my tears and laughing again and again :)

Case sides reminded me my old Marvin Malton's case but this looks more crisp. I would go for blue alternative, just maybe I am in love with Nomos :)

What a wonderful looking watch. Front and Back its absolutely spectacular. Lugs need a slight redesign as does the case edge design around the crown and longer strap. Too big for my scrawny wrist but if you’ve the wrist for it I think its spectacular as a design exercise. Maybe the design language has overtaken the everyday aesthetics and usability equation somewhat? Think maybe Marloe have the design thing nailed but need to product test their designs with a small group for feedback pre production? I reckon with some small adjustments and a re alignment of price for version two ($800-$1000usd) approx that watch is an absolute winner! Nice review Mr M.

I think you are fortunate to get another Marloe, as you were a bit sniffy about the previous review. I think this is gorgeous. Best looking watch on the market right now. A proper “ grown ups” watch. Dive watches are passé now, this is the new trend. Marrow get great customer reviews, so good luck to them. 33? You are high ranking in the Scottish rights of Freemasonary?

Beautiful looking watch which I’m sure will sell but that’s still a hefty price for a microbrand!

I think the other styles might fit the larger dimensions of this a bit better, but the gold and champagne dress watch like this would have fit better a few mm smaller. This design in a 36mm package would be a stunner

If you’ve got twig wrists the flatness will be a problem but no more than any other manual field watch of this diameter, on my 7.5” wrist it sits perfectly.

Just gorgeous. Jody, what’s the gold finish, do they say? Gold cap? Electroplate? Heavy electroplate? 18k? This would be awesome in solid gold if I had $5,000.

While this is a lovely watch it doesn't seem fully thought out. The lugs needed a little more downturn. The leather strap - which is exactly to my taste by the way - on the other hand isn't suited for bigger wrists.

Hi Jody, What a beautiful looking watch, it is the look I have been craving for years. Shame about the price at £600 I would get one in a minute. will have to watch and see if any come up on e-bay when people start to flip them. thanks for the review keep up the good work. PS Can you recommend any places I can go look on the net which gets lots of watches that are being flipped?

... I'll be honest, 40mm is too big for this watch. Such a beautiful, vintage-inspired watch should be 37mm or smaller. It'd have been daring, but worth it.

Very smart. I love a small seconds watch.

Thanks for yet another good review. Nice looking watch. Wish it was 38mm diam./45mm L-L, better curved case and that they didn`t copy the Marathon Watch Company logo.......

Blue would be my pick but that price is way up there. The case looks very interesting but a bit too big for a dress style watch. I think with that price they may have done the same as Tribus and priced themselves out of the market (they also have some watches with a 30% discount)

Very nice watch indeed Jody! And as always a great video. Regarding the number 33, I do know you're a Formula 1 fan, so maybe it has something to do with Max Verstappen?

1100 US Seems a bit high, but I really like this one. I am searching for a new dress watch, as I only have a couple of ‘budget’ dress watches. This is Definitely on the list! Thanks Jody!

Seems like it wears closer to my CW Trident 43mm, but i have a fairly small wrist and even that looks fine, so I don't think this one wears too bad

That is one classy and beautiful watch. Definitely a watch I will consider purchasing.

I like this a lot. Not normally my flavour, but the case design is different and nice and the back of the watch is superb looking, so much so that’s such a shame it doesn’t get any immediate admiring looks. I’m super impressed at the visual detail overall. It’s pretty flat yes, but I could live with that as an occasional daily wear. If the lugs had a slightly more turn down, it would be a killer.

Magnificent! I think I would prefer the Pacific 52 because the gold plating on the 55 will wear off eventually.

Quite a Sharp watch !!! Thanks for sharing.!👍👍

I didn't even know you could get Scottish watches! Brilliant, off to watch those other vids now. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Cheers 🍻

Very beautiful watch! Pumped for another great season, I'd follow a F1 side channel if you made one xD

This piece is beautiful....

I wish they had made the subdial smaller so as not to cut the 6 index. No one really uses a subdial to actually do anything on a three hander other than to confirm the watch is running and to sync the time. The overall profile seems like a slab in spite of the curvy side profile. The bead blasted side looks weird to my eye. Close, but no cigar from me.

Leather/rubber watchstrap fitting. I 've given this some thought and as (short of a lottery win) I'll never have a watch microbrand I'll share my idea.... the gap between holes on the leather strap I'm wearing today mean a choice of tight or loose (7mm between holes) so why not include one buckle strap and two hole straps with 6mm gap between holes but different hole spacing so that you can get say 3mm increments on alternate choices of strap

Not a fan of how the 6 is cut off. Would have looked nicer if the small-second was reduced slightly in size to leave the 6 intact.

A smaller seconds dial and a full applied 6 would have been nice, in my opinion. However, it is still a very nice watch.

Gorgeous watch.

Truly beautiful watch and such a lovely 50s look. but yes that asking price makes it a hard ask 😕

Something to do with the Calcutta Cup ?! Lovely Watch - not normally bowled over by gold, but the finish on this is good enough to eat!

When dressy style vintage vibe watches I kind of prefer the 38mm. More specifically because of the fact they are dial only watches.

Love this watch, I have the 52, it’s a bit special and like nothing else I own.

You picked 33 to remind you of the birth of your new baby on March 3. Congratulations Jody.

Love it, it’s a stoater! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Great t shirt buddy,and nice kilt.Ive been thinking of getting a Marloe for 2 years now,but I can't really afford the ones I like. Pleased to say I now have 3 helms,thanks to your reviews.

33 for Max. C'mon 44 !!! Lived in Fife for 15 years so I love a Marloe. Nice watch.

That's pretty rich for a small brand but a very nice watch. I'd choose the 76, but at that price, I'd be buying something with a bit more history.

I do not see this as anything special exept for where it was made. Too large of a crown, scalloped sides, the truncated '6', the iffy fit. Yeesh. Just get a vintage Hamilton, or better yet a vintage Hi-beat Longines, and have none of these issues. Great review, Jody.

Awesome. Please tell me you're keeping this? I'd happily be a brand ambassador 😊😊. They're on my radar & I'd love to support a local (Ish) company. Being a Highland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 boy. The Morar is my starting point. Beautiful piece. Best regards from Alba 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

1:30 33 because of your hand gestures that you keep flashing. But they are more open in Australia.

We need this Scottish music intro more frequently :)

That is a beautiful watch.

$1,200.00 US = $1,650.00 Canadian, plenty of other choices in that price range. And chopping the 6 o’clock indice was a mistake 🇨🇦

Beautifully stunnig, love the others more than the gold

$2000? Tell him he's dreaming.

omg that test card transmission - takes me back

I wonder how such failures (strap that does not match the watch) happen when you launch such expensive product. Has anyone wore it before product launch? Was it checked only on Teams or Zoom?

Some very cool details that make this watch stand out. However, if this is the look you are going for, why not go vintage? While usually a bit smaller, there are vintage watches in this style in all price points- from obscure, dead Swiss brands to Omegas and JLCs. I'd go for a lesser known brand and get the movement serviced and a new acrylic crystal- boom! a fifties/sixties style watch that's actually from the fifties/sixties.

jody, could you review some certina watches in the future? i think they have a good selection

I think this is a great design and lovely watch to look at. I could totally go for it, but my wrists are smaller than yours and for me 40mm with 47mm lug to lug are sensible limits that only in specific instances could be tested. As you've shown and clearly argued, the case shape prohibits a best fit given those conditions. Still, I like it a lot. It's a pity they haven't thought about this a little more, as with 12mm+ height there is plenty of metal to play off in terms of shape and downturn without compromising the gull-wing side profile. 12mm+ also is really too much for a handwound movement. I love the caseback crystal, sort of justifying that choice (though could have gone with a slightly decorated option to great effect, given Stowa can do this for about the same price), but really it'll worsen that effect of the watch sitting on top of your wrist. Anyone arguing that this doesn't matter, I'd have think again. In practice I find watches that sit proud or are on the larger side, I am far more likely to knock or catch on things. To me, it really does matter, but I will allow some leeway for design creativity and diversity on my wrist. So, Marloe, please consider doing another one of these. Drop those lugs, slim the case a tad, put in the slightly decorated ETA movement, and shave off perhaps just 1-1.5mm off the diameter and you'd be onto a winner. I also think the versatility could grow with an understated application of lume, filling the thin strip on the hands and perhaps replacing the golden dots with handsome little thick knobs of circular lume, as found in vintage pieces. I'd be looking forward to such a release and find it hard resisting the purchase.

Happy birthday Jody!

I can't believe people didn't get the 33 reference. Happy Paddy's Day Jodie. And no, I'm not "turty tree". I'm fifty.

I really wish the hour hand extended a bit further so that it touched the inside of the inner track. That seems like a miss. Also, on this retro styling I would have loved to see the hands come to a full tip. I find sharp sword hands to be much more elegant. The case design might look better on the silver models but this PVD gold looks wrong. It's a classic style watch is a Richard Mille cutout.

Welll that was an introduction for my Sunday morning....

Good review and seems like a well made wat h but my wrist wouldn't handle it

Personally, for the same money, I would rather buy a new Raketa Avant-Garde. Still a stunning piece though and nice to see something different.
