I had the pleasure to see this watch yesterday when I spoke to some of the people behind this brand

The watch did look fantastic and the movement really is something else. The watch is very recognisable but that movement puts it in a totally different level. Understandable the price is different from the first sellita powered one

The dial is strange, the more you look at it, the more special it looks

Case and lugs are the same style but this one is even a bit between, the lugs are a bit wider and slightly different shaped
The case is 39 instead of 38 mm which I applaud

Ofcourse the price is another thing. The first one was a no brainier
It was only a matter of being lucky to be able to get one cause they were limited and the demand was 10 times bigger than the supply
In this case it is not a LE and the price is around 6500 euro
I do understand some might look at a lot of other brands at that price level. Nothing wrong with some zenith, jlc , rolex etc
So this time there is competition. Then again we’re comparing apples to oranges because those brands don’t offer you such a movement for that price
If you want a similar movement in one of these brands, expect to pay a lot more than 6,5k
So once again fantastic value for the money

yep, nice piece. Targetted at a different strata of clientele like you said.

I totally agree with the OP. I really the like Ming's design, the case and dial are very refreshing. The movement is very special at that price point. From the video, I noticed that the case maybe a bit thicker to be a comfortable daily watch. I hope to see some video of the watch on the wrist before I decide to place a pre-order.
