I didn't watch the video, and won't because of O'Leary - but as an owner of a Monta Noble and big fan of Monta as a brand, it gets my vote out of these.
OK, I just watched this last night and was going to post about it. I have a few thoughts. I was surprised at how much he seemed to like the quality of the brands. But when he started to eliminate, I got really confused. Specifically that Studio Underdog, Monta, Baltic got eliminated more quickly, and that none of those were in the top 2. But at the end when he was talking about his criteria, it made more sense. He was strictly looking for uniqueness. And I may not agree with Trafford winning in that case, I think it makes more sense. Just based on that criteria, I'm still surprised that Wren was second overall.
All that being said..... does anyone else find it hard to believe that someone like Kevin, that is such a watch enthusiast, has never heard or seen any of these? Or seem to have no knowledge of any microbrands. I find that almost impossible to believe.

It is hard to say as I have only ever held two of the brands in my hands.

You can visit their sites to have more info. That’s what I did…

True but there is no replacement for seeing them in person.
