Great video as always, Max! Farer has always been on my radar, but your video can sway anyone into digging deeper into the brand.

Thanks for the generous opportunity, and good luck everyone!

Thanks for the heads up on that Nomos, it looks incredible! They do seem to have waiting periods for their watches, which isn't an issue for me. Also great to hear that you're enjoying the Sandhurst, wear it it good health! I will probably pick one up at some point in the future!

I actually went to see it in person a few weeks ago and tried it on, its incredible in person and its the one for me! Thanks for the input!

Thanks for the feedback! I do agree, the Grand Seiko can seem a little underwhelming, while the Nomos definitely has more character. I'll have to do some more self-reflecting on which one speaks more to me!

Thanks for the suggestions! Formex doesn’t really speak to me, but I’ll have to look more into Monta and the Longines. I do love the black bay 36, which could also be a good choice if I save a little longer. Appreciate the input!

Absolutely stunning piece! Have a great weekend!

If you're on a mission for a Grand Seiko, you could take the money that would be spent on a new watch and apply it towards the GS. But where’s the fun in that!

As @KristianG mentioned, the Marathon Navigator is a great choice. You’re Terrific has a good video on it:

Recently squired the Seiko SNE573 38.5mm solar diver that is incredible  for the price (~ $350 on eBay) if that’s your jam; highly recommend it. There are also plenty of micro brands with a lot of bang for buck. Nodus and Lorier are a few brands to look at / keep an eye on. Happy hunting!
