The overall look is very "Breguet"-like, especially the dial, for 5% the price of an entry level Breguet. And I love the fact that there is no date window.

Just picked up the Zelos Eagle 2 Ti Meteorite with the La Joux Perret G100 Soigné movement. Paid right at $899. And the LJP movement is the +- 7 seconds a day in 5 positions versus the +- 12 seconds in 4 positions the standard LJP G100 that the Frédérique watch is using in this video, Love micro brands like Zelos!

@PaddyMcMe 3 ай бұрын

I've never seen a Box Sapphire Crystal used on the Movement side before, that's SUCH a cool distinguishing feature. WAY more brands should be offering that. Honestly using blued Screws, custom rotor with DLC coating and having a exhibition caseback should be standard practice IMO for any watch that sells over $1.5kusd. They elevate the watch so much whilst only adding slightly to the cost.

The FC I'm most interested is their slimline monolithic. Doesn't seem to get much press for the most revolutionary movement since quartz, and most revolutionary mechanical movement since the mechanical escapement. I haven't seen many hands-reviews and would like to see one from a trusted source.

I've got a 2021 Highlife - it's the only watch that's stayed in my collection, has never come close to being 'boredom flipped', and will be there for the foreseeable future. I've had a Classics Manufacture, picked up real cheap. It was a beautifully made thing, but ultimately flipped as I always felt I should be attending the Ambassador's Ball when wearing the thing.

@leomedina5614 2 ай бұрын

How do you like the Highlife? I have a Rolex that I’m thinking of selling to get a FC highlife. Rolex is great but sadly got bored with it since mostly everyone has one now and days. The FC highlife has been on my top grail for the longest but would love your input on it.

@duncanhamilton5841 2 ай бұрын

@@leomedina5614 it's well worth a look - really well executed case design, QR system for the three straps is really good (I usually wear on the bracelet and keep the rubber one in my briefcase if I fancy a change during the day). Can't fault it at all. I've got the OG blue 41mm, but I think the newer ones are maybe a touch smaller. FC says 39. I'd probably go for grey dial if I was buying again. The blue is dynamic, but very vivid, so sometimes clashes with clothing.

Teddy, a question for you and might be a good topic for a short video. Why Roman numeral on watch and clock dial, the 4 is always IIII, not IV?

@davidc5191 3 ай бұрын

It's called the "watchmaker's" 4 and goes back hundreds of years so as not to confuse IV and VI in certain angles.

@Aggnog 3 ай бұрын

2-3 changes I'd make to this design for my own taste. 1.Remove the minute indicators and reduce the size to 37mm. Can also reduce the size of the hour markers which would make the minute hand reach the minute track. Can even go down to 36mm by doing this. 2. Make the blued hands and indices actually blue (like the movement screws). They ARE blued from what I've heard, but to the point of being a black color.

Style is subjective. Stupidity is not. Underspending on a watch is stylish in-and-of-itself. Overspending adds stupidity to the mix, upending the style. Flaunted at the half-witted, appreciated by the aimless, spent by the possessor of a harrowingly empty soul. Happiness is out of reach.
