hey guys Sandra with my watch addiction I'm bringing you that special watch
review of a watch that I've been looking for for a while before we get started
though guys I just wanted to say I wish you a Happy Holidays and hope that
everyone has a very prosperous 2018 with that being said don't forget stick
around at the end of this video and as I promised I will show you how one of my
subscribers can win one of my watches as I mentioned I promise it's going to be a
watch that I've reviewed on this channel before and it's gonna be watched it I
like and sincerely hope that you liked as well now there's no catches it's not
going to cost you a penny I don't need you guys to sign up for anything you
don't have to buy anything it's just to thank you for helping me out over this
past year so what is so special that I had to review and wait for today well as
you can see we have another out of order watch it's you guys have previously seen
huge huge fan of out of order watches and their design styling overall but why
is this one so special well today we're going to take a look at the original
iron bridge special edition out of order watch so Before we jump into this watch
too much let's talk a little bit about where this watch actually came from this
watch which was originally at its roots an out-of-order automatic Oh was created
in partnership with iron bridge Watch Company of Philadelphia Pennsylvania
iron bridge watch company was started by gentleman who was an N watch collector
with the sole purpose of bringing foreign micro
to North America and marketing them to today's younger population typically in
partnership with numerous different companies such as out of order or TCM
Fortuna Iron Bridge watch company has been able to develop a few limited
edition models this watch I believe was one of the first limited edition watches
that they created in partnership with out of order watches and this is the
original Iron Bridge limited edition out of order automatic oh so taking a closer
look if we pull the watch out itself you can see this guy comes on a blue NATO
strap and the NATO strap itself says I wore right on it will walk around this
watching more detail in just a second let's take a look at what else this guy
comes with it also comes with this leather with blue stitching it's almost
like a rawhide leather strap the neat thing about this is this actually has a
hidden deployment clasp for the band it's not just a normal tank clasp
which I think that is gonna look really sharp on a watch when you get it paired
up to it just gives you a nice nice color combination moving the box out of
the way gives us a chance to take a closer look at this watch itself now a
few things you'll notice right off the bat is the bezel the blue on the bezel
and the blue on the dial does not have the aged look that you would expect to
see on an out-of-order watch then I'll show it compared to my green automatic
oh here in just a second but walking around this watch you can see at the six
o'clock position they have the labeling for the iron bridge Limited Edition
that's different than the standard automatic oh you can see the case
coloring on this is almost like a copper or bronze finish has the made in Italy
right there on the side of the watch just like it would at the bottom of the
watch though you're gonna see right there it's a little bit different this
is actually a serialized this is number 59 of only 100 of these iron bridge
limited edition automatic codes that were made the box has the number 59
marking to it as well so if we take the NATO strap off you can see the back
there now the interesting thing about this is the display case on the back of
this watch the glass or the crystal has a blue tint to it also to match the
color stylings of the rest of this watch this watch is actually operated with a
high quality Miyata 8215 movement which incidentally is the same movement that's
in the standard automatic hose it's in my green automatic o as well as my out
of medical black now let's take a look at this watch as it's compared to my
green automatic oh that you guys saw me review not too long ago so if we hold
these guys side-by-side and forgive me for being all over the place with them
you can see the general style of the two watches is very similar the
main difference looking at the watches again that not so damaged in Italy
filled to the iron bridge editions but also the hour hand and the minute hand
are different on both of these watches you can see whip though Iron Bridge
watch it's got kind of a square triangle at the head of that hour hand looking
around the watches themselves look if I can get them in the same direction at
the same time they both very same same case size can't same everything
they both say made in Italy on them the crowns for both of them are just the
same there's even the crown guards are the exact same that they're essentially
the exact same watch with the exception of the limited edition has different
hands different so unlike other videos I'm not gonna dive into a whole lot of
what this watch is going for on the open market I'm not gonna go and check out
Amazon and eBay and see what it's selling for there but I do want to talk
about the value of these corner watches for just a second one of the things that
I find really really really interesting with out of world watches is how much
the value or the the selling price of these watches can fluctuate based on
market demand so recently within the past couple of months Mayer Bridge
released their out of order ghost limited edition watch which went on sale
for pre-order a few months back the limited edition ghost went for a
thousand dollars now I believe if I remember correctly when this one this
Iron Bridge originally sold out its website it went for $1000 also however
with watch gang releasing it as a Platinum sub in because at the time when
this was released not a whole lot of people knew what out of order watches
were and not a whole lot of people especially knew what Iron Bridge Watch
Company was so the value on this watch around that time was basically the watch
gang sub price of $299 over the past year when watch gang has released more
recently the automatic owes to the Platinum subscriptions the prices have
started to go up as far as buying these from private sellers the demand for
these watches and the prices has started to go up and especially with the release
of the ghost limited edition in my opinion the price skyrocketed now when I
originally started looking for this watch guys we're selling this watch
anywheres from 850 to 900 and fifty dollars for for this limited edition air
bridge most of the time it's a watch that they had received as a part of
their watch gang Platinum subscription I personally was not willing to pay that
much for this watch so I just held my breath and kept an eye out to see what
what was coming around about two months ago I ran into a guy on watch can you
exchange nationally saw him advertised this watch up for sale or trade yeah I
immediately the second I saw get posted I immediately messaged this guy and
offered him what I felt was a fair price for this watch knowing full well that it
was significantly lower than what the going rate was for on the iron bridge
watches at the time to my surprise he actually accepted my offer I purchased
this watch approximately a month and a half two months ago give or take for
five hundred dollars right now if you look on watch Danny exchange or you look
on any of the other sites these watches are going in the anywhere is from 775
all the way up to 150 bucks I've seen this watch selling
for and I just happen to be in the right place at the right time with the right
amount of money in hand yeah pick this watch out for $500 so that is one of the
reasons why I was so excited about getting this watch in getting this one
into my collection because it's one that I've wanted for a while though I love
the blue on this watch the blue absolutely makes this watch look in my
opinion absolutely gorgeous don't get me wrong I like the green automatic oh and
black automatic oh that I have but I think in my estimation this this blue
Ironbridge is by far a much much nicer looking watch than the other two so that
was the iron bridge Limited Edition out of order automatic oh that I received in
as I mentioned extremely excited about this watch cannot wait to get this into
the daily rotation now as I mentioned many times over the past week and as I
mentioned previously in the video now's the chance for you guys to win one of my
