Blacklist Streetmatic Chronograph Watch Unboxing - Meca-Quartz VK64
what is up folks this is andrew with my
watch addictions comm and today we are
gonna take a look at a blacklist StreetMatic chronograph for blacklist watches
now of course because we're doing an
unboxing in review of the blacklist
streetmatic chronograph I am of course
wearing my StreetMatic s5 automatic for
the watch of the day this blacklist
StreetMatic s5 is one of 75 made with
this specific color combination and dial
and I'm extremely extremely happy to
have this guy in my collection now if
you guys have not seen my videos before
I definitely suggest smash that
subscribe button down there on the right
hand corner of the screen so you can
follow us in the future
on average we are releasing about two
videos a week on Mondays and Fridays so
definitely come back and check it out
anyway guys let's tear into this blacklist streetMatic chronograph so I first came across
the blacklist watches via the watch gang
exchange initially I actually happen to
run into Justin the owner of blacklist
watches in the exchange got talking to
him one day and then started looking at
some of their watches in the past I've
had a whole slew of blacklist Street
maddox I've had the s3 the s4 the s5 and
I believe I actually have another
blacklist Street Matic automatic to
review with you guys in the future also
that's been sitting but decent packing
in the box let's get this guy open so
we've got the blacklist outer box open
this up see a nice leather inner box
with the blacklist logo right there get
it out here we have the blacklist Street
Matic manual right there that came right
along with it a bunch of cool
information about the movement in this
watch and the I'm sorry in this manual
and the operation of this watch but
that's not why you guys are here you
guys are here to take a
this blacklist with me so if we open
this guy up and in here we have the
warranty card and see the warranty card
right there in the model number that I
went with what you guys might have
trouble seeing there it's a blacklist
Street Matic chronograph SM zero zero
five and then of course the date and the
signature and this is the beauty that I
picked up
you guys know my love for black and red
so how could I go wrong with a black and
red Street Matic incidentally just want
to point out guys real quick this is a
really really nice watch box the the
leather in this watch box actually
reminds me of the leather in my Jeep I
mean the it's almost got like that
cushiony seat material leather to it I'm
sure that goes right along with
blacklist racing inspired designs to
their watches but really neat little
watch box as we zoom in on this watch
let's take a walk around it and find out
what it's all about first thing that I
noticed that caught my attention is very
typical to a lot of blacklist designs is
that carbon fiber dial design that's
what originally attracted me to the
street Matic s3 that I had just that
carbon fiber design is extremely deep
looks really really nice on a watch in
my opinion but the thing that I think is
pretty cool about this dial designed are
those applied and raised indices at the
our markers along with the applied in
raised numbers at that twelve and six
o'clock position I think it adds a
little bit of dimension to this dial
which I think it's pretty sharp also
you'll see those sub dials are also
recessed a little bit into that carbon
fiber dial I don't know if you guys can
pick up on that or not and then of
course that red chapter ring around the
outside or I those accents I think are
really really really
good-looking on this stainless steel
watch if you're curious about the size
of this watch this is actually a 44
millimeter case with a 12 millimeter
case thickness the strap on this watch
tapers from 22 millimeters down to 20
millimeters at the buckle and buckle
incidentally does have the blacklist
logo right there on it as well as micro
adjustments right there within the
buckle we come over to the side you see
those pushers and then the blacklist
logo on that screw down crown that that
screw down crown helps give this watch
10 ATM water resistance or 330 feet the
glass on the front of this watch is a
sapphire coated mineral crystal and the
last thing that I can tell you about
this watch right now outside of the fit
and finish is on point
this watch is actually powered by a
Seiko VK 64 Mecca quartz movement now if
you're not familiar with the what mecca
quartz movements they give chronographs
or quartz watches the functionality to
look a little bit like an automatic
watch and you guys have seen me talk
about the mecca quartz movements with
the flyback chrono that I have in the
Aragon sky Guardian real real fan of
these movements but if we take a look
here we've got that typical click of
that second hand a little bit smoother
and then of course we have the snapback
operation of that Mecca quartz movement
in this chronograph one thing you'll
notice about this watch there is no
second indicator and that's part of the
design stylings that Justin built into
this watch right there the three o'clock
position you have a 24 hour sub dial and
then of course the 60 minute
for the chronograph functionality is
right there at the nine o'clock position
as I mentioned earlier I picked up this
blacklist Street Matic chronograph on
pre-order directly from blacklist
watches calm now on pre-order this watch
went for roughly two hundred and fifty
dollars two hundred and forty nine
ninety nine was the pre-order price on
this watch with that Mecca quartz
chronograph movement that's in it if you
guys are interested in picking up one of
these for yourself I recommend you hop
over to their website at blacklist
watches com they are going to be a
little bit more expensive now because
they're no longer on pretty order but
I'm telling you right now in my
experience both from a customer service
standpoint as well as a product build
quality standpoint I'm a huge huge fan
of these blacklist watches so definitely
go check them out
incidentally Justin the owner of
blacklist watches is one of those types
of micro brand owners that is extremely
extremely into communicating whether it
be on social media well pretty much on
social media whether it be on Instagram
or on Facebook he's active in a large
number of watch Facebook groups as well
as has his own blacklist only Facebook
group that he operates now the nice
thing about the blacklist Facebook group
is that in there he bounces design ideas
as well as information about future
watches that he's working on off of his
members as members of the group what
better way to find out why your customer
wants them to talk to them directly and
that's kind of what that Facebook group
is all about it's to celebrate blacklist
watches in general and use a as a
sounding board for him to learn from his
customers so I'm gonna post up a link to
that blacklist Facebook group in the
description section below if you have
any interest in blacklist watches or
just want to have a chance to talk to
Justin and learn more about his
designs in what his goals are for this
micro brand watch company definitely go
ahead and join that Facebook group and
have a chat with him anyway guys I'm
gonna get out of here if you want to see
this watch on my wrist or any other
watch on my wrist at a daily basis don't
