I really appreciate that he’s making these watches here. I would love a budget line with materials/designs that don’t add up to a 5 figure watch price.

I guess we’re ignoring Cameron Weiss?

Cameron Weiss watches aren't made in the US. The Peseux movement is Swiss Made and I wouldn't assume the rest is made in america either. They're assembled in the US, which is very different from being USA Made.

​@@Enrico- In 2016 Weiss' Cal 1003 movement-bearing watches reached stringent FTC certification to literally state 'USA Made' on their watches. These specific ones are not currently in production since they're still re-establishing manufacturing due to moving from LA to Nashville but it seems clear they'll be restarting this. This also tragically ignores RGM -- who has made entirely in-house movements in Lancaster PA, since 2007.

I don’t like his watches at all. First of all he puts his name across the dial. If I’m paying $80,000 for a watch I don’t want someone else’s name across the dial. He can put his name on the back or inside. Secondly the watches just don’t look like an expensive timepiece to me. They remind me of a fossil watch which you can buy at Walmart for $20. He should put his history degrees to better use and stop wasting his time on these overpriced junk

To be fair, many, if not most, really high end watchmakers put their own name on the the dial. This is a pretty traditional, common design style for dress watches. When you see Fossil watches of a similar style, keep in mind that that the patterns on those dials are achieved through a stamping process, not engine turning. Side by side, you will see a massive difference between the two. It's like a Chrysler 300C vs. a Rolls Royce. There are always cheap imitations that have the same general style.

I don't like it = It shouldn't exist. Welcome to the 21st century.
