    I love this colour scheme! Thanks for the review, seems like the perfect all rounder, looks class without being too over priced

    The new BB41 Burgundy/monochrome has a master chronometer so technically it's better than the rolex superlative chronometer?! Also I wouldn't compare the 58 to the sub...

    Absolutely wonderful watch... Although very beautiful, I would prefer this watch with a matching blue strap... (to go with the numbers). But yours is still very very beautiful man!

    I bought my first Grand Seiko Heritage Rikka Early Summer 2 years ago during my holiday in Japan. My love for Seiko started 4 years ago. I was always fascinated by Rolex, until I discovered Seiko. Since then I have several models in my collection. Seiko is more than a watch, it is 'Seikosha'.

    Trying to decide if I should trade my Rolex Explorer 39mm and TudorBB burgundy metas for a Rolex Sub40mm date or 41mm sub no date. What do you think? Always wanted a sub.

    Your review during Covid influenced me to buy this watch a few years back. Still got it, still love it. I recently fell in love with some of the GS quartz offerings. Addictions.

    Brandon,…”Cartier makes some pretty nice watches”? The Tank and the Santos de Cartier? Also,…don’t forget Santos’ tremendous magnetic resistance.

    So silly to complain about rolex AD.. 😮if it were available at retail to everyone then it would crash in price like every other shitty watch brand. Exclusivity is what makes rolex. Don't like it, go buy a Tudor

    In my opinion, LARGE is much, much better than medium. For small wrist, a dark dial (blue, green or black) can limit the "too big" effect. In any case the numbers are ROMAN, not Arabic!!.

    Fantastic review, thx! Have you ever noticed, that the 6 o'clock luminous index is misaligned on you watch? I have a navy blue and the index sits the same way too much to the left. I'm not decided yet to warranty replace the dial.

    Great video. Although if it was just going to be a ‘can’t buy at retail’ rant it could have been shorter. Of course you know you’ll get clicks so by even acknowledging Rolex you’re feeding into their hype. PS - I mostly by GMT watches; they’re not just ‘for travel’ - I do business with people in other parts of the world so nice to glance down and see if they might be available for a call.
