I think Ali watches can cheaply give you the feeling or vibes of the grail watch on your wrist. They certainly will not replace the 'real deal', but are an excellent approximation of one.

@notyourbusiness1352 Месяц назад

As a pagani design owner, I agree. I have the gmt sprite homage and it is very well made. I wished I bought the NH35 version tho, woulda been close to perfection but I just got their own movement

If you can barely afford the real deal then why buy it? If there are 50bucks worth alternatives buy those no one cares at all.

@julianb1474 2 месяца назад

Excellent list. I recently bought a variation of the Sugess you showed which added a power reserve indicator at the 6 position. That is a feature I really like on a manual watch. edit, the model # is ST1906 and I'm wearing it now. Lovely watch.

Some great selections here mate. I recognise that picture of the San Martin SN0131G 😉 I've reviewed most of these. My favourite out of them is probably the SNO131G. It's the first watch that San Martin used the "chainmail" style bracelet on.

Volume. Also, the other brands are charging too much. Labour cost is also quite cheap in China. That's not to say that facilities they are assembling these watches aren't top notch though. I've seen one of the assembly shops, they look every bit as clean and organised as a Swiss operation.

@LymanPhillips 2 месяца назад

And there must be some basic building blocks parts, like cases, that are available in an unfinished state and then each manufacturer can finish to their requirements. SM spends more time on them, PD spends less. Same with casing the movements and even QC. Time is money.

Great video once again. Lovely choices. I been wanting to get that addiesdive flieger for a long time. I just can't choose the black or green dial......And that SM Aquanaut homage is beautiful. I just don't know why SM mostly never put in a no date movement like the NH38. It would only cost then a few dollars more, but the clients would be happier and wouldn't mind paying a bit extra.

@TopTierTicker 2 месяца назад

I agree mate. It's sloppy watchmaking. I don't know anyone who's genuinely happy about having a ghost date position! Like you say, it's around the same price too. Weird!

@-_--le3zk Месяц назад

Bought the addiesdive ad2030 white version for only 37 usd in a sale, and man is this a special looking watch for the price, one side note that the dial isnt perfectly white as the photos and videos show but in reality a very subtle warm tint is also there.

@LymanPhillips 2 месяца назад

I might have to get that Boderry Ti field watch. I like a field watch with a 4 o'clock crown. It makes it comfortable when you bend your wrist back and reduces the possibilty of bumping the crown. And a field watch should have decent water resistance as well for all sorts of outdoor adventures. The lightweight case is just the icing on the cake. Stick it on a nice weathered leather strap and "chef's kiss.'

@Ian-dd5dm 2 месяца назад

Great vid Kieron, I like an Ali watch but have only ever bought the really cheap ones. Once your up to £200 then you start getting mainstream options I feel. I am a watch fan who no sooner buys one watch but then wants another. Ali watches give you the variety and choice on a budget to have a lot of pieces you can chop and change regularly without blowing all your wages on bloody watches each month. You can scratch the itch for 50 quid instead of 5k and then if you really like it then maybe save for the big piece. I recently gave the Sanda a go, I like it that much i'm thinking should I start saving. Only my opinion.

@TopTierTicker 2 месяца назад

I agree mate. It's a place to have some fun 👌 love my Sanda too. Still throw it on every couple of weeks

@howardtyree4297 Месяц назад

I like AE Homage watches. They’re inexpensive and generally reliable. Mine keep good time especially the San Martins, Pagani’s and the Sea-Gull watches. After buying an Omega and a Tudor Ranger Homage watch I purchased an authentic Omega Seamaster and a Tudor Ranger. Homages are fun and have areal purpose. Some AE watches such as some San Martins are getting in the price range of some micro brand watches although they’re just as good or even better than some micro brands. Especially those MB’s using the Japanese NH35 movements or the Megawuartz quartz movements. You can’t beat PD’s Omega homages or SM’s Tudor homages.

@mariacomet 2 месяца назад

People don't talk enough about how the NH35/36, etc have revolutionized the watch industry almost as much as when Seiko produced quartz watches. The NH movements combined with Covid is responsible for an explosion in watch modding and in microbrands. Seiko gave us a solid, reliable movement that anyone could use and everything advanced from there. A lot of great Microbrands started with and continue to use them. Seagull movements are also fantastic. Glad you gave us your pics, SO many watches on Aliexpress are tempting. In your experience, how does Addies compare to a brand like BERNY?

@julianb1474 2 месяца назад

I build a lot of my watches as well as buying and can endorse your comment about the NH35. It's a rugged movement that can be regulated to better than 10 sec/day, usually much better, with no problem. It's a fallacy to think the hi-beat movements like the PT5000 are automatically better. IME they are no more accurate, and are more susceptible to shock failure.

@dimasakbar7668 2 месяца назад

@@julianb1474to add another perspective, while i love how NH34 democratize access to movement and build making, i personally have high hopes for Chinese manufacturer of movement, the way they did finishing just a lot above what Seiko did. I want to see more of them being featured.

Beware of Sugess at the moment ; I bought from the Ali's "choice" Sugess official store a chrono (not the one you depicted, the Top Time Deus homage), and it's been supposedly picked up by the courier since the 26th of March, but hasn't shipped yet. After a bit of prodding through Reddit, it seems I'm far from being the only one on backorder, and they may have bitten quite a lot more than they could chew during the last Spring sale. So if you're in a hurry, take care.

@@TopTierTicker There's a silver lining ; considering the amount they're supposed to refund, for whatever reason, it will turn the other watch I received from a 70 € bargain into a 40€ steal.

All of these Ali watches/brands, including the more up market ones, where they all fall short is the finishing. Which is to be expected, but specifically with the bezels and the crystal/glass. Those are what really betray the watches.

If you don't care if they stop working in less than a year buy them. Especially the Sugess ones are a nuclear hit or miss. And the costs pile up as you buy more, so the result in your pocket is the same. Hate on Seiko all you want, but it is 1000 times better than all the AliX brands.

@Elshantonio 2 месяца назад

Although I don't have any actual clomages, I have to admit the whole clomage argument is starting to get to me. It's well known that Rolex shot to the top of the luxury watch brand hit list by basically copying Blancpain when creating their first legendary diver. Not to say that it's somehow frivolous, there's only so much you can do with the design of a watch. But at the end of the day, people annoyed by "clomages" are mainly people who refuse to accept they're on lists waiting to spend five figures for a status symbol that's, at the end of the day, just some good (but by no means otherworldly) craftsmanship and a lot of expensive marketing so suckers can get duped to wait to pay five figures for it...while others wear watches that look eerily similar with build quality that, even though clearly inferior, is by no means hundred times inferior. I'm beginning to view people with clomage watches as the more respectable bunch, when compared to buffoons on wait lists who can't get regular erections without pills anymore or just need something else to confirm their perception of success or give them a reaffirming, pathetic metaphorical pat on the back. Luxury brands have long ago stopped being something for true watch enthusiasts. So fair play to the clomage guys.

@ordinosaurs 2 месяца назад

I have one "homage" of a 1950's Rolex by Addiesdive, not because I would ever hint it's the real thing (hard to fake on a teacher's salary), but because swapped on a Milan links bracelet, it's like a movie prop which evokes a certain era and lifestyle. I like it, and importantly, I'm not afraid to casually wear it at the beach and such.
