If either Watchdives or Baltany would do one of these models with white snowflake hands and markers, instead of faux patina, I would jump on it so fast I'd hurt my wrist reaching for my debit card. I had a blue Tudor Submariner Snowflake back in the 1980s, and I wish I'd never sold it.
I have a similar Tudor MN homage by Tiger Concepts. The mid case is far slimmer and more elegant, has snowflake hands and a massively domed crystal. It’s the cheapest watch I own and the one I wear the most. Thanks for the review. 👍
Firstly another great review.The quality of the video is excellent.The info is clear & precise.Always enjoy the strap show.The way you deliver the information is just right & the fact that you realise you’re reviewing watches the cost generally less than 200 bucks & you don’t get over anal over silly things that you don’t notice in real life but only under a microscope & wtf looks at watches with a microscope.Keep up the brilliant work & Thankyou
Bought one, lovely watch, wears well, great lume. My only beef? It’s 60 secs/day slow. I can probably adjust it out but I think it should have been adjusted when the watch was mfg’d.
This looks great. I keep hearing mixed reviews about watchdives. I've not had one in yet, but this may be one i go for - if only they could make it thinner. I'm like your style though - i only came across your channel today. Keep up the good work!
@@FullyLumed thanks for finding me, I just gave you a follow also...very eye catching graphics 👍. WD is a newer brand and they are still figuring things out...but I think now they have a factory that knows what they are doing....watches going forward should be VERY nice. This is still nice but they miss the mark on the case design, the new factory is already on this for a V2 I think.
@@EscapeWheel That's great news. I'll keep an eye out for the V2 thanks. And thanks, I've just stepped out of my comfort zone and decided to make a channel. Early days, but my first proper video is done and I've already learned lots from it. Again, I like your style, I'll keep watching as you release more!
I think it's a pretty cool watch. I don't have a problem with the thickness; in my experience you don't really notice it while wearing the watch. The blue dial is lovely and I've no issue with the lume color. Much prefer the custard yellow look here rather than the pumpkin orange you see occasionally. I would buy one.
I’m convinced watch dives are using san martin cases… the ranger homage is exactly the same excluding the bracelet… I have 3 , great watches and love the quartz option
I really like this... BUT! No date :( Similar ro Addiesdive AD2054 that I would like but that one is quartz... ehh :/ Two great looking watches that have things that prevent me from buying them :( Edit: Any recommendations for blue vintage style watch that is automatic and with date?
Im not sold on this one. I have the Quartz addiesdive version that i got for $56 aud , that i use as a beater. To me its just another sub homage running the same movement like every other sub available. They need to make the patina a more brown effect rather than this chalky yellow.
Nice review, I own the Baltany but this one does look great and for that price, it's a better option than the Baltany but, there's one thing that bothers me a lot from this watch, the brand logo. IMO, the Baltany looks way cleaner.
The bezel size and dimensions are near perfect . The crystal looks like it emulates similarly to the old plexi glass or acrylic with it being domed - it’s just the thickness ruins it . Reduce the slab case and it’s a winner 🏅
I’ll stick to the Baltany version. 👍 Steve hopefully you’ll accept this constructive feedback in the spirit it’s meant, but is it possible not to refer to the watches as “this thing”?
They missed opportunity to make an excellent watch. This watch is quite poor. It doesn't have any shine, it doesn't look premium, and it was very easy to do. First the deep blue ceramic bezel, wo wants aluminiuns bezel? Not me. The case could have wings like the Shark master case, which is beautiful. We don't see the date, I have the date version. So, date magnified, and the dial needs a gloss ocean blue. The hand set is so small. The bracelet and screw system is horrible. I regret buying this watch. Thanks a lot for the excelent revue.
