I encourage everyone to get their hands on pieces before purchasing. Filming in pro-res, amazing color correcting and other video editing tools make products look much better than in reality.

I was going to argue against you, but you're absolutely correct. Some of these watches here are underwhelming in person. Bertucci? Nah.

@@mistadopeman my main problem with pieces under $200 is material quality. And it's quite impossible to get an accurate perception of it from the video (I mostly mean stainless steel). So in my mind resin-plastic G-Shock is always a better option for this price range.

@mistadopeman 2 ай бұрын

@@user-tr7vv2gw6x I agree. They use special effects that don’t reflect the product accurately. But yeah, G-Shock is G-Shock. Us watch nerds pick up on the most minute details.

Can I just say... I watched two videos like this. The first video was a sub-$100 watch list and I ended up getting the Seiko Snxf from that list. And now you drop this and convinced me to get the G-Shock ga2100. Y'all gonna ruin my pockets yo.. stop with these damn good vids😂

Excellent presentation. 1. I purchased the Betucci DX3 a few weeks ago for under $90 delivered. Field watch had to be analog, 40 mm or under, quartz. Protected crown. 2. I purchased the Bulova corporate in December 2023 for under $80 delivered. Analog, 40 mm or under, quartz. Nearly minimalist. Office watch. My criteria are not going to be yours. An older friend is single, no children, professional and licensed parachute rigger. Spends the winter as a ski rescue person. He displayed a $370 Seiko field watch that I would have wanted 45 years ago when I was in Afghanistan.
