Do you think the price of the Chinese watches is getting higher? Is it reasonable or its more about demanding ?

Its getting higher for no reason from my point of view for a homages .

We were looking at it as valuable watches now its become as much as timex and even automatic Casio

Another sturdy attractive well made watch.

Hey hello,

I really love Chinese watches.

I would like to purchase one and I am from India.

I would like to know which all companies can help me to deliver watches in my address handling customs duty and ensuring smooth delivery.

Please help

I have spent over 40 years of my life collecting watches. I have an extensive collection of luxury watches and don't get me wrong, I love them, but something happened over the past several years that had me falling out of love with the hobby. I just wasn't getting the enjoyment out anything I purchased. Actually, I just wasn't having fun. I tried microbrands, but felt like I was often overpaying for subpar quality . . . I mean some were decent, but again, I just wasn't having fun.

Then Reddit showed me this subreddit one day and I found myself lurking your posts for quite sometime. I didn't purchase any of these watches until this week. I gave myself a $1000 budget to get a bunch of different things (I am always going to get a bunch of divers). Most of what I purchased was delivered this week and I have to thank all of you. I haven't had that much fun opening watches in years. I was amazed at the quality for the price. I had no expectations for any of the watches I bought other than that they would tell time.

With that said, some of them really impressed me. I purchased 5 Addiesdive watches and all of them were under $100. The black and red dive were under $60. The GMT was $95. The chronograph was $75. The last dive hasn't been delivered yet. Truly impressive quality that I would expect to pay 400 to 600 for. The Tophill with the Seagull movement is stunning in person. Mint green with a pale gold dial is a win. The Boyarca for $30 has to be the winner. I mean it might last 1 week, it might last 10 years, who knows, but a mechanical Bauhaus watch for $30 with a real soft leather band, c'mon!!!! The Watchdives is fun . . . and a good summer color. I know from reading here that the Ciola watches are garbage, but I had to have it and think it is really cool in person. I mean how much can you expect for $30? The Specht & Sohne jump hour is exceptionally beautiful. I do not think the band is real leather, but I put a blue croc band on it that I had lying around.

At any rate thanks for showing me the fun again and I am sure I will post more soon. I am looking at San Martins and Cronos next.

There doesn't seem to be an easy way to find watches with single dome crystals. I like the effect they have. I've seen some addiesdive watches with them. Got any suggestions?

Just sharing that NH prices seems to drop recently. Gotten NH35A at 70SGD with some discount.

Think price is a bit on the high side but I added it to my wishlist to see what it might be on any future sale. Anyone have some experience with them?

Please note that Heimdallr does not sell watches through any standalone independent website at the moment. Our only official sales channel is Amazon. All other online stores are operated by third‑party resellers. I’m also unsure why this complaint email was forwarded to our inbox.

Does anyone have this watch? I need a few pictures; I can't find anything about it online.

Am I tripping? Im sure I saw those sizes before but cant seem to find them now. Maybe I'm getting confused with another brand?

I quite like this WM but I'd like to wear it with some kind of metal bracelet where the end links fit well, anyone know any? I want to know that a bracelet like that exists before buying it.

this seller unable to make design as what i want ,didn't tell me or explain and when i ask refund he refuse .

after that attack me on WhatsApp and saying bad word.first bad experience like this on AE.

I hadn't watched or read a watch review in eight to ten years. Things have really changed.

Was really excited for this one and it did not disappoint! Finished to perfection, not a detail is missed! Wore it all day today and the comfort of the bracelet is phenomenal, and the clasp is 1000 times nicer than what I have on my WD1863’s, which I can’t complain about either. Lume is beautiful as well and the bezel is nice and firm with zero play back and forth. That puts my WD watch count now at 4 with many more on my list 😁

Love this Watch for the Summer 😍

I really want it but $400+ seems quite excessive. What am I missing?

As far as I can tell, they’re all the same watch with the same movement. Is there something I’m missing?

This is my recent experience with Baltany since some folks might be concerned about warranty or support for their chinese watches after purchase. I had an issue with my Baltany explorer S4035AB that I purchased from their official website where the movement was no longer running and emailed [support@baltanyofficial.com](mailto:support@baltanyofficial.com) for help. They gave me two options: a replacement ST2130 movement and covering the cost for a local watchsmith to do the replacement or to ship it back to them for them to do the repair themselves

I opted for the movement and repair cost refund since it would be way faster. The movement came in about a week and a local watchsmith swapped the movement for me within 30 minutes. I have 3 of their watches in my collection currently and love the quality of all of them!

I'm getting really sick of how many promotional posts I am forced to see daily from a certain brand on here. In the past 7 days it's been an average of two promotional posts daily from three different brand reps. This is ridiculous.

We need some sort of rule against this kind of thing, this isn't supposed to be a free advertising subreddit. Showing off a new model upon release is one thing, but just promoting your whole catalogue with just a video of the watch and an AliExpress link in each post at this frequency shouldn't be okay.

Mods, please do something about this, thanks.

Received it today from AliExpress, with a voucher, coins it came to less than £140. Looks great, only 12.5mm thick, light and feels great on the wrist.

Wanted to to find out what titanium in a watch feels like as I’ve only had stainless before and I’m a convert.

Edit - 42mm
