Very nice little watch. I wonder if the folks at Seiko have heard of this sapphire stuff that everyone is using to make their crystals. Someone should tell them!

@WatchtheTime Год назад

Very good point mate. I’d love to see Seiko being less reliant on Hardlex, especially at the price of some of their watches. Thanks for watching man 👍👍

@darkchocolate4643 Год назад

Someone should also tell them that it's possible to line up bezel inserts with the indices.

@Dirtywesterner 2 месяца назад

i just got one, @ $55 it is a steal.However mine has Pagani-esque lume and the bracelet is pretty subpar,but nicer than previous Addies bracelets.I think this and their Willard homage could be an unstoppable 2 watch collection for $110 US

@MrBBaptista Год назад

Received mine about 2 weeks ago. It hits all the spots for me. Very happy with my purchase.

@WatchtheTime Год назад

Nice one mate and I can see why. I really think at present, this is the best value watch on Ali right now, at least what I’ve reviewed. Thanks for watching man 👍👍

@ccooper8785 Год назад

I heartily recommend this watch to everyone. Since buying one 3 months ago it has become my favourite watch. If Addiesdive ever makes a version of this with applied indexes from the AD2112 then I will be first in the queue to buy that as well. I really don't think I will ever buy another auto watch after experiencing thin VH31.

@WatchtheTime Год назад

I can see why mate, it really is an exceptional watch for the price and is really all you need tbh. Thanks for watching man 👍👍

@PocketUau Год назад

I’m fine with dial but this really needs text cleanup. No more “deepseahunter” and no more dive mask logo.

@steve8510 9 месяцев назад

I can't take it off, would love a flat crystal though but everyone says it will hit the hands and that's why they did the pot, the only real weakness it has is the bracelet, getting an oyster style one for it next week.

@samteks125 9 месяцев назад

Grabbed one for 39USD (and that's with 19% taxes!), can you believe that?

@drebarthelotte5712 Год назад

I am going to buy. Really good quality. I have not had a bad experience with addiesdive

@WatchtheTime Год назад

It’s a great watch for the price mate and one you’d enjoy for many, many years to come. Thanks for watching man 👍👍

@ddeusify Год назад

Very very nice watch. I love. The proportions and the design are better than the San Martin. Revue the PT5000 automatic. And the cush bronze it's another piece, so nice this bath from Addies Dive. Thanks for the revue.

@WatchtheTime Год назад

It is a very nice watch mate, no doubt and it’s most certainly a brand I’m going to feature more and more. Thanks for watching man 👍👍

@mehhhh5588 Год назад

Thank u for the great reviews always. Am deciding between Steeldive and Addiesdive (been a Pagani fan for a while now) and I must say am inclined towards Steeldive thou I probably will wait for a few more reviews from you between the 2 before I decide which to land. Appreciate the vidz and looking forward for more of these!

Nice jacket. They would go well with some IWC driving gloves like Lewis has.

Perfect homage to the 1963 Rolex Explorer 1016. Excellent timepiece.

@WatchtheTime Год назад

I’m glad you like it mate 👍👍

@ccooper8785 Год назад

Yes, hopefully also they produce one with the applied indices from the AD2112 as it is as near as I will ever get to the later Explorers.

@watchsixto Год назад

Its crazy how some people get the perfect watch and other not so lucky it's always fun playing the watch lottery with these homages almost tempted in seeing if i can get lucky looks awesome

@WatchtheTime Год назад

I suppose that is part and parcel of shopping on AliExpress, the inconsistency but the brands on there have certainly got better 👍👍

@ryannewby447 Год назад

I think this is the watch I bought via eBay from you. Love it. So much to watch for your money. Agree with bracelet size, not for big wrists. Luckily I have small wrists. Love the look, and the quartz movement is a game changer for me. Thanks for the review and been an amazing seller.

@WatchtheTime Год назад

Ah nice one Ryan, am glad you’re enjoying the watch mate and long may that continue 👍👍

@caktaylor Год назад

Maybe they can change the name to DEEPSEA EXPLORER for version 2.

@ET-vq8wi Месяц назад

I bought the AD2030 some weeks ago. Fantastic sand dial -the perfect watch. Then I stumbled across the AD2023-1 the one reviewed above. All in all a nice watch BUT the AR-coating on this one sucks, it is way too blue unfortunately.

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

Sorry to hear you didn’t like the ar coating but am pleased to hear you like the AD2030, which is a very nice watch - enjoy 👍👍

@AlexHollins-hv4uy 4 месяца назад

A solar meca movement would make these watches even better. The price difference would be minimal.

@WatchtheTime 4 месяца назад

Sounds like a good idea mate but I can’t say I’ve seen many AliExpress brands using solar movements…

@briancolyer8483 Год назад

Has to be said i do like this, right up my street....the text is questionable but not a deal breaker....unfortunately for me im not sure it would fit, at this price would they be willing to add some spare links not sure....🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⌚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⌚

@WatchtheTime Год назад

It’s a cracker, not perfect but pretty close for the money tbh. Thanks for watching and I hope you’re well 👍👍

@brianmsahin Год назад

My first Ali Express watch was the green Pilot style 200m with just "Addies" on the dial for some reason. They left out the dive bit. Lol. It only cost me the equivalent of around $45 in a sale and it's still one of my favourites, running at around +5 spd and fantastic lume. I think if you want a decent reliable watch you can't go wrong with Addiesdive or Steeldive. My Steeldive Tuna is a great dive computer backup and I reckon an Addiesdive diver would be just as good. As for this one, it's a solid choice.

@WatchtheTime Год назад

I know the one Brian and it’s a cracker for the price and a bit of a legend of theirs. Addiesdive and Steeldive are doing some great stuff my friend 👍👍

@Watch_your_Money Год назад

Great finding...any ghost positions? This caliber was ment for chronographers and I'm happy manufacturer managed to squeeze it in this beautiful case...any thoughts?

@WatchtheTime Год назад

There is no ghost position mate and my understanding is that this is a 3 hand, 2 jewel, mechaquartz movement and in my experience, it runs very well. Thanks for watching 👍👍

@gorillasinthewrist Год назад

Disappointed in this one, the watch it’s homaging is my grail, not convinced a b&w dial needs that much AR and 19mm lug width? Just why? Great review.

Sorry to hear that mate as I really like this one, I guess these things are very subjective though and I completely take your point. Thanks for watching man 👍👍

@thinredline2795 Год назад

I think this watch is gorgeous, great review. Can I ask what you mean about the bracelet size you have a 7 inch wrist and you had to remove two links, is that right? I have a 7 1/2 inch wrist just curious if it will fit...

@WatchtheTime Год назад

It’s a beauty for sure mate and yes, the bracelet is a tad short given I only took 1 link out for it to comfortably fit my wrist. Could pose a problem to you but you may get away with just wearing it straight out of the box. Thanks for watching man 👍👍

@mediaplayer2150 Год назад

Molto particolare il movimento anche se il consumo di batteria ne tiene conto. Dimansioni e quadrante molto bello solo potevano evitare la scritta deep sea hunter su un orologio che sembra un explorer. Bel video.

@WatchtheTime Год назад

It’s a beautiful and well spec’d watch, especially for the price. Thanks for watching my friend - Gracias 👍👍

@XjohnjohnX88 Год назад

At this price, it's impressive. I agree with you with the lug width. But maybe the proportions are a bit better. But like you, I don't like the writing on the dial. On a dive watch, it's okay. But not here. Except this, it's 👌. Great review again, Simon 👍

@SuperDojdoj Год назад

I got mine delivered today, clasp is milled inner and stamped outer in my opinion.. just as on my tag heuer.. however this clasp wobble with 1-2 millimeter in bad tolerances, also lugs are sharp enough to stab with. Otherwise it's a quite nice watch, and at the same price as my tag heuer replacement clasp... oh yeah, the sweep is 14400 bph i think, looks a bit choppy. Still lots to like about it, this was just my immidiate small disappointments..

@WatchtheTime Год назад

Sorry to hear that mate and I can’t say I noticed the issues you mentioned, perhaps it’s an isolated thing or at least an inconsistent thing? Thanks for your honest feedback and for watching 👍👍

@SuperDojdoj Год назад

@@WatchtheTime Thanks, the disappointments are small, not enough for a dispute imho. It is a good looking watch for the money I can't deny that, 4/5 Ali-score 🙂

@samsantana Год назад

hmm the Pagani Design Explorer homage is cheaper at $60 with an NH35 applied markers, numerals and logo 200m water resistance

@WatchtheTime Год назад

I have seen that on AliExpress Choice and it’s a cracking deal but for me, just not as refined as this one 👍👍

@samsantana Год назад

@@WatchtheTime I like the domed crystal on this Addie better than the flat crystal on the PD, and the lume is most likely better than the PD. If only it had applied numerals/markers I'd jump on it.
