The Watchmaker
"Finding chaos and precision in all things – a philosophy of watchmaking
Filled with the pulses of numerous ticking watch hands, this short documentary from the UK filmmaker Marie-Cécile Embleton profiles a London-based Iranian watchmaker as he muses on the delicate and temporal nature of his work. As Faramarz meticulously polishes wood, shapes metal and positions springs, his personal philosophy emerges – one that values the minutiae of moment-to-moment experiences, and finds craft in all things. Beautifully shot and carefully constructed in a manner that mirrors the work of its subject, The Watchmaker was a film festival favourite in 2017, appearing at the SXSW Film Festival and HotDocs, among others.
Director: Marie-Cécile Embleton"

The videos on this channel are excellent. I haven't watched this one but assume it's good. Nomos are high on my list of wants...
- Yeah, gives an idea of what you get for the price you pay for an automatic watch. Fascinating.mandomafioso
- I have a Nomos. It's a wonderful little watch. Got into them when they started making their own movements.cannonball1978

- Looks like 100s of other identical men's watches.shapesalad
- ^ which is ok if that's your style, to be like the heard.shapesalad
- does it look like a fake rolex?pinkfloyd
- i'm ok with the other part, I just don't want to look like i'm sporting a fake rolexpinkfloyd
- yep, looks too similar to Rolexshapesalad
- gtfo of my postpinkfloyd
- I used to not even like the Rolex version, but after seeing in person I do like them for something super conservative...but I'd stick with the Rolex.formed
- Everyone will look, then see it's not a Rolex.formed
- Did you get the Omega? That (the O) is so much nicer than this or the Rolex, imho.formed
- I got rid of the Rolex because it felt a bit flashy. Didn't get the omega atm.pinkfloyd
- What will people think!!!?????set
- Don't look for self worth from the eyes of other people. Just wear the fucking watch that you like.set
- I'd vote no. For that price point, I'd go with a Seiko diver. I *think* this uses a Seiko movement anyway, so I'd just go to the source.showpony

^paid $105, sold it today for $400

- Beautifulmonospaced
- Really is, and really $$$MrT
- Doesn't need line for every minute, and perhaps only needs lines for every 10 minute. Looks like any other 'mens' watch. Strap looks a bit too thick.shapesalad
- I appreciate that the minute lines and numbers, while not required, are at least refined and very small compared to other watches.monospaced
- $11,000+
Damnmonospaced - lol shape after after that fugly FES thing you posted below.MrT
- Meh. I can think of a ton of companies that have real pedigree (hold's value) and is more attractive. Just me, clearly.formed
- I could see it selling for $500, maybe, but otherwise what are you paying for beyond a name? IWC, Rolex, Omega, Breitling all have a lfietime of historyformed
- sure, but are any of those brands are free of paying for the name to some extent?MrT
- But you are paying for a watch maker's history, the pedigree. I wouldn't buy a Ferrari watch, either. $500 would be a lot for the Leica name, 13k is sillyformed
- it is that. it's pretty but I want wheels and an engine for that kind of money.MrT
- fooler3
- Saw that this morning. So nice. I don't get the left seconds subdial though. Why the double hand?mandomafioso
- Go on then.MrT
