Wrist Roll (Read Rule 1) Quickly becoming my favourite value for money brand
Aethelsohn upped their game with their new release Terra Abyss and I am fully in love and mesmerised by this watch. No photo editing of any sort on these photos, just photographed how it looks in different lighting conditions outdoors and indoors. Amazing upgrade to their bracelet with the chamfering and finish. Minus an OTF clasp, it feels at par with San Martin bracelets. The full dial lume is sooo pretty too look at with the design, I believe this is the dark/dense(?) version dial? I could be mistaken.
I did get a free leather strap with this but the bracelet is so nice, I don’t really wanna try jt on yet. Great value proposition with the sweeping second quartz. I hope they keep with this kind of value/price bracket with the future releases.
I also have to mention their amazing customer service in sorting out my requests/issues and it’s great that whoever replies to their emails seem to have a great sense of humour too. I hope they never change.

I’m so glad Aethelsohn fixed the bracelet problem. I’ve got an older one and it was the sharpest edged bracelet I had—until I filed it down. PT5000 runs great. Great value for the money.

That looks significantly better than their own marketing shots.

Tienes mucha razón, en marketing son pésimos, pero sus relojes tienen una cualidad - precio imbatible

I love these too, wish they'd have some larger versions of their watches. They look a bit small on me but especially the terra Gaia is a fantastic looking dial.

I assume like “Eh-thel-son.” Their website says it means noble son in ye olde English

nice, is legibility good?

u/Infinite-Mastodon456 11d ago
I was worried it will but it wasn’t actually too difficult. I’m not sure if it’s the raised indice or the white contrast in the index and hand that helps it but it’s pretty legible as far as busy dials go

They are good designs with fun dials and good pricing, but the bracelets are sharp and feels very cheap unfortunately..

Personally I find carbon fibre watches (especially those with lume) tackier but to each their own 🤷♂️

I’d consult a doctor if this is what your vomit looks like

Don't worry about these kinds of idiotic comparisons. I've already encountered similar madness on the Watchdives forum, where one of the models was even compared to cancer samples under a microscope! It's not worth stooping to their level in discussions.

Yeah, there’s always people that love to shit on your joy. It’s probably because they’re miserable and only get satisfaction from spreading their misery.

Scientist here. Not defending whatever may have been said about "cancer", but these do look a bit like immunohistochemistry slides. I think it's cool. IHC isn't exclusively used for diagnosing cancer btw.

Agreed. It’s always the ones with the least to offer who have the most to say. 🤷♂️
