When you showed that Kuoe I genuinely thought the video was about hunting vintage deals. It’s drop dead gorgeous ❤

Screw down crown, thin, automatic, and under 36mm? Glad to see Kuoe getting the appreciation they deserve

I wish the Nezumi had a date function. GMT watch is a tool made for traveling. I feel that omitting the date function from a GMT watch is like removing a speedometer from a racing car. You should not have to second guess the date, especially when you are traveling across multiple time zones. That's my 2 cents.

Wow that Kuoe is a stunner! I wish more micros would make vintage-inspired dress watches like this. Not a fan of the straight end link bracelet, but overall a really cool watch

[chateaubullion]

Thanks for the video. I immediately went to Kuoe website only to find out both colors of the Royal Smith were on backorder. I love that vintage look.

[neilgadsby]

wow. I was looking at the Kuoe a month or so ago when they refreshed it, but then I moved on and forgot about it. Seeing it on the bracelet makes we want one again.

You made excellent points. Amazing collection.

I’d love to see a microbrand Video about the ones that have it all. Sapphire, elevated vickers, screwdown crown, excellent Lume, respectable movements, etc

[jameslogan]

The Kuoe is outstanding! Wow. The Japanese know how to build a watch. Elegance personafied.

I do like that Nezumi. My favourite of there's is the black dial with jubilee.

[mr_glasses]

Great trio! I've had my eye on all three of these for a while.

[joeymorris]

I’ve got the standard dial version of the Fleux. It’s really fantastic. One of my best surprises of 2023.

[verynormalman]

Excellent suggestions. It's great to hear about new watches. Where are the watches made? That's important to me.

[vipnetworker]

Microbrand, I would go with Islander watches.

They have SOOOO many to choose from and I totally trust, respect, and appreciate Mark from Long Island Watches.

I have learned so much from him here. I can’t wait to buy an Islander.

The Royal Smith on leather looks great!

[charlesmcclune]

The Kuoe Royal Smith 90-006 is a knockout 😎 and their Sombrero 90-011 Compressor Style Diver with the linen dial is also worth a look 🤔

[maximimaxima]

I‘ve been watching the Kuoe Website for montags, Finals wanted to order, and then the Royal Smith is sold out 😅
I‘ll wait, just fell in love with this Watch.

[ryfoong]

Really good list and i agree that Kuoe Royal Smith is a nice watch. Now i gotta get that watch.

Flukes diver watch looks like the Baltic Aquaschape that i own from first look. Design wise very similar

[canadianwatchmonkey]

Wow, you knew about Nezumi, I learned of them a few years back when they had the release of the limited edition RUFF chronograph, stunning! 😊😊😊

[samnova]

Love the Kuoe brand, just wish more of their watches were 38mm diameter. I have a big wrist size.

Good pick Max! I really enjoy this episode. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
