Why are there not more people talking about (or owning) Weiss Watch(es)?

I know he uses ETA base movements but he hand finishes them in his LA workshop, assembles the final movements, builds the cases on his CNC machine, and has the dials finished locally in Los Angeles. If people (me included) are spending $300-$700 on Seikos, Casios, and microbrands, isn't the (mostly) handmade WEISS 38MM STANDARD ISSUE FIELD WATCH a great deal at $1,150?
