Steinhart Ocean One Black Ceramic: Full Review 

Mark Walters i’m also thinking of getting this watch. Let us know how feel about the watch :)

Mark Walters coming from a 64 year old man, you will love the steinhart!

so how are you old chaps doing... just kidding, i hope you guys are fine and enjoying your Steinharts... im about to get mine nxt week.

Ted Barrera thank you very much!

Glad to hear that it has served you well through the years! I am really enjoying mine. Even better to hear that Steinhart stands by their products and is a stand up company. That really makes the deal for me.

Jenso several years? That's good to hear! 😊

HelmetCamMatt You know I asked myself that same question but after paying $5000+ on vintage electric guitars from Gibson to Fenders, $500 is ........

matt fain thanks! I made it in some ceramic shop a while back!

I bought two Seiko's for about ~300 each. SRPA21 and SARB017. I'm quite new to the watch game (last watch before the Seiko's was a Quartz Fossil), but I think they're fucking amazing for the prize. Esp the SRPA21. Next up I'll probably get something around $2k. If you would like a more expensive watch, Rolex is probably a terrible choice (second only to Patek). Go for a bit more pricey Seiko perhaps (SBDX017 is on my list) or a Hamilton or something. There are a lot of videos on ~1k-2k watches and if for nothing else you'll get a decent idea of what brands shine in that category. In my mind it's """""cooler""""" having an "expensive" watch that not a lot of people spot instantly rather than a subpar Rolex.

I apologize if I made it sound like I know everything and I'm schooling you about watches. Not my intention

99% of folk will be totally unimpressed with your Steinhart and they will be totally unimpressed with your Rolex. That will probably upset Rolex owners, or those that say they wouldn't be seen dead wearing a Seiko (lmao) Fact is the majority of people are not remotely interested in watches. I know someone that sold their submariner because frankly, nobody cared. People should just buy whatever they want because it really won't say as much about you as some would have you think.

Knightlore10 you are so right! I have watches of all calibres and price and if the watch makes you happy then thats all thats important. I personally prefer tool or mechanical watchs though, just something like a pet on your wrist. Although i love my casios also.

Knife Nut how do you know its swiss made? I know the legal definition, but how do you know? There are fake rolex out there that even a rolex dealer would be fooled. They run about a thousand dollars but they are absolute fake!

Yes, would be nice to have a longer power reserve, but this one is only two days. I have a Tissot Seastar with the Powermatic 80 caliber, and the 80 hour reserve is a very nice feature. That one was my first mechanical watch and it did not disappoint functionally, but I find it a bit boring on the wrist, visually. Anyway the shorter power reserve of the ET 2824-2 did not stop me from ordering an Ocean One 39 mm with the green ceramic bezel. Can't wait for it to arrive!

logan m I would say definitely! for the price, you're getting a true Swiss movement which should last generations with proper service, a very heavy watch, and a sapphire crystal which hasn't scratched at all since I've had it, and I wear mine to work everyday. I've been very happy with it. I don't think you could find a much better automatic in this price range.

thank you for your opinion! I really appreciate it!

Still great! I love it!

Damo Kortwel had my steinhart for 3 years and wear in reular rotation,no problems at all, about 4.5 seconds a day fast.

Never heard of Google, stupid?

Exactly

bala jay honestly I'm not sure if they have a storefront. But I had a great experience ordering with them online.

Well I made my order yesterday for the ceramic version. Now the wait...! :)

Nice! I think mine took about a week to get there, but it was officially on back order when I ordered it. The tracking worked really well for me so you can watch it come!

Well I just received mine a little over an hour ago! :) I ordered on Sunday 26 Feb. Was notified of shipment on Friday. The watch came on Monday at about 8 pm local time. Total about 8 days between order and delivery. Not bad! Only beaten by the credit card invoice for the purchase which came this morning.... :( First impressions: 1 Watch is really beautiful to behold! For an untrained eye it looks perfect, no blemishes. 2. It's really heavy! Possibly my heaviest watch. 3. No soft cloth. Surely this could have been included... 4. The bezel is really stiff to turn. Not sure whether would improve with usage. Perhaps I should start working out my fingers... 5 Ceramic bezel is absolutely stunning! 6 Really not all that big. Seems perfect size for me, a 5'4" guy... Blade, thanks to you, my man! :)

To add to my earlier comment, I just got the bracelet shortened to fit. I'm finding the bracelet rather uncomfortable. The edges of the chain links are rather sharp and tends to cut into the wrist. Given the heft of the watch and bracelet I'm finding it rather uncomfortable. Perhaps it's too tight a fit. I'm planning to bring it back to add another link...

You cannot do a simple conversion of the amount displayed on your screen? You have to ask for help? Are you 4?

Betty Bean He mentions he did not pay any in the video.

bala jay it should be in the drop down options box. it is called "keramic" or something to that extent, probably because it's German.

Thank you. Enjoy your watch!

O F never heard of Google? Or of the fact that companies have Web sites?

I'm sure you can find something fancy to clean it, but I usually just wash it when I was my hands with soap and water if it is dirty. You could use a sponge too, just not anything that would scratch the band or case. It's a dive watch so you shouldnt need to worry about water ingress!

Soft bristles toothed brush and warm soapy water. Make sure everything is screwed down. Give it a good washing, then rinse and dry well. Should be good to go.

Thanks! I really appreciate your comment!

The Steinhart actually has solid end links. Just FYI.

@@guyo68 I guess I mean the centerlink that connects to the case, solid as in not hinged. Solid the way the newer Submariners are.

Steinhart O1 have white enamel engraved creamic gloss black bezel insert for some time now, also there is 39 mm case version.

I commented too early, fuck

The GMT feature of the watch. The GMT feature is used to keeping track of a different time zone. If you do not need to know the time in a different time zone, then the feature will most likely be useless to you. here is the website in response to your other comment. www.steinhartwatches.de/en/?___from_store=de

The GMT has an additional hour hand that can be set independently. Thought I would make that clear.

You are not incorrect. The company is located in Germany, and the movement is swiss. At this price point, I'm more concerned that the watch even contains a swiss movement (the most important part of the watch in my opinion. However, in order to be able to claim "swiss made," a manufacturer must meet criteria for percentage of watch produced in switzerland among other things. I am no expert, but I believe the movement must be cased in switzerland. So it may be possible that they do all the finishing and bracelet fitting among other things in germany. The watch bearing the "swiss made" label means that it fits the criteria for a swiss made watch, although it is in part produced in germany.

I was pretty excited for the watch till i found out everything but the movement was Made In China :-/ TheBladeSickness -

@@worldsmack Your statement is incorrect. Before moving back to the states, I worked for Steinhart QC for over 5 yrs. I assure you the movements are NOT made in China. Chinese movements in Steinharts is a false rumor started and perpetuated by disgruntled customers with the help of a smear campaign in social media and on the internet.

Why are you being so rude? I said that because not having this open (meaning transparent) caseback made me choose the Titanium model which is a bit more expensive.

Transparent case back just allows for one more place water can enter. Can't see the movement when you are wearing it anyway.

Victor Ferrera my steinhart eta is more accurate than my seiko monster, but my invicta is more accurate than both!

I spoke to the use of it while scuba diving in another video. If one day I get a camera capable of being submerged at diving depts I will certainly video it! It has held up well in my diving to about 50ft. Haven't dived in a location that was much deeper than that!
