Pyrolume Manual Winding Unitas Watch
Posted by The Breitling Source under Budget Watches , Pyrolume , Watch Reviews1 Comment
My second and last Pyrolume Watch video review. I don’t think that Pejman at Pyrolume appreciated my lukewarm reviews of his watches, but that’s the way I feel about them. They are essentially Alpha watches with a custom made dial. Look neat, yes, but the premium for the dial on what is essentially a dressed up $50 watch is pretty high.
Having said that, his dials are pretty unique and they are not something you can get anywhere else, and they are CNC’d in-house and hand lume-painted. I think I would appreciate them more if he used a $250 base watch and charged $500 for the watch, however.

The dial looks really original. I guess it looks even more interesting in the darkness when the markers are glowing.
