Would a fake Sea Dweller be a deep fake?

Not a cheap Omega but a very expensive Swatch - genius

[arthurscargill]

Seems everyone thinks the MoonSwatch launch was a disaster apart from Omega and Swatch who are absolutely delighted with the surge in sales for both Swatch watches and Omega Speedmasters.

Both PP and AP are milking on the Genta design but in a disrespectful way. The spirit of the Nautilus is the watch being made in steel. And for the AP, it is taking the design to a whole level of tackiness. It's almost like they are running out of ideas a long time ago.

[brrrrr]

Contents as I watch:
1:30 - Richard Mille Tourbillon Smiley
3:03 - Omega Speedmaster mars time
4:49 - Rolex Green Lefty GMT Master II
6:19 - Tudor Ranger
7:36 - Moser Genesis blockchain watch.
10:38 - Tag Heuer Mario Kart chronograph and chronograph tourbillon
12:13 - Rolex Deepsea Challenge
13:50 - Patek Nautilus 5811 "do you mind if I stay and crash on your couch?"
15:09 - AP Royal Oak Music Edition
16:49 - the fucking moonswatch

my own commentary:
* People would've put up their homes as collateral for a 💩Richard Mille💩
* The mars time speedmaster should've been a mechanical annual calendar set on mars instead.
* The genesis... It's too invested in crypto to be mocking it, which would make the wearer the butt of the joke.
* For a hype piece, the moonswatch should've been more omega and less swatch. Not a watch with any profit margin but as a limited edition talking point to get people into stores. Instead we're all making fun of it because it was absolute trash. Lol

That Bugatti Chiron -wink, wink- monstrosity which looks like a thick insect and costs an astronomical amount... yes that one!

[peacockbro]

you're sooo right about the Omega Swatch - I thought I'm over it, but then I got mine in Singapore, even queued for it. My original intention was to get a "cheap" Speedmaster for my travels - and I have to admit, it catches even more attention than my original Speedmaster

"but tom, hold your cynicism for a second!"

"no"

I was last week in Tokyo, walked into Swatch shop, they had three models and after seeing them, didn't bother buying one. Saw a much more interesting watch in another store. Nivada Grenchen x Undone.

[MastinoNapoletano]

It's a great concept for a G Shock.

I couldn't agree more Andrew! Hope all is well. I agree with all of these selections! Thanks for sharing!

[silvaanosvs]

The simile of AP hour and minute hands, stationary, on your HiFi really got me. Nail hit on head moment!

[mitchmitchell]

Always great to hear your thoughts. The title is, as you would likely admit, a bit off enit? Most of these watches are fine, but suffered due to failed marketing campaigns or marketing department fails. And marketing missteps, for better or worse, can really impact are feelings about the watch or even the brand. For me, Omega moved down several notches with the MoonSwatch and then the James Bond 60th (not to be confused with the NTTD, which is a banger). As to the latter, I would argue that the little "animation" on the caseback is more cringe than the diamond bezel with the Jamaica theme. Come to think of it, that series should have been on the worst of 2022. Along with the Mars watch (with a face only Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos could love), that's three strikes for Omega. You are outta here!

10 seconds in and with the disclaimer itself the video earned a big thumbs up Like from me!

[alexzorkin]

I hope next year Rolex will introduce a watch for Australia, which is the same but upsidedown

[dparis]

Ok, just finished watching the whole thing. It’s definitely one of the YouTube videos of 2022. The witty observations/comedy stand out even against an already scintillating catalog of Watchfinder videos. Thanks for this thing.

[DrBovdin]

I only have the Moonswatch of the ones mentioned here… the rest are just not really that easy to get as a mortal. And none of the really pricey ones are something I would like to spend that type of money on even if I had it lying around.

[Youtubeuseraa]

I am lefty and wear normal watches on my right wrist. No annoying crown.

[Keyur-Suthar]

You should also mention that the moonwatch are bad in quality, Scratches inside its own packaging, leaks color. You are better off with a Casio G-shock or a seiko for the price.

[lancedisk]

All sound effects are on point. If you dropped in an Auuugh seamlessly as well, I'd be stunned

[TheMrFishnDucks]

The whole metaverse scam failing is great news. Really sad that Moser was not taking the mick out of the crypto. Nice video. Keep up the good work.
