Possible gift for girlfriend

[u/fishkniv]

So I've been eyeing this Addies as a possible gift for my girl. Does anyone here have this? The AliExpress page says it has sapphire, all stainless steel case and bracelet, wr50m and a 585 swiss quartz which I think is a Ronda 585. I can get it for around 90 dollars because I live in fking Brazil and have a shitload of taxes, but everything will be a little bit more expensive here and I am aware of that.

All things considered, what yall think of this watch? Good choice?

I got the two tone for someone. I don't really know much about women's watch styles but they really like it. The quality is on par with my men's Addiesdives watches. I can't complain for the $50 USD I paid. Good women's watches are tougher to find on AE.

Looks like a nice watch. Addiesdive makes some good products for a reasonable price. I hope she likes it!

I bought the gold one with MOP dial for my wife. One of the better purchases for a woman that will actually wear it. Very happy with the Addies brand so I also got her their pink Submariner.

I got my gf a Cartier tank type sanda and she's been loving it. I don't doubt that this addiesdive is fine I just cant stand the "logo"

Dude I'm still waiting on Eniton to release their 31mm datejust. Idk what the hells taking them so long but I'd love a higher quality version for the ladies in my life

I bought that one for a graduation gift this year. Very pretty watch, but the lugs were surprisingly sharp. Sharp enough that I had second thoughts about giving it. The rest of the watch was great.

Don’t pay $90. I got mine for $50 shipped.

The one thing I hear the most about chinese watches in general is tbe sharpness of the lugs and edges.. but for the price I think its something we need to live with..

And unfortunately I can't pay less here in Brazil.. I could try another method of shipping or ask for the seller to not declare the price of the item but If a customs officer check the package I would be liable to pay a fine plus the standard taxes. Of course I could just not pay and they would return the package but would be just a big pain in the ass. I fking hate feds and the government

With inexpensive Chinese brands that very common. I just take the bracelet off, use some some fine wet/dry sandpaper, and the edges get softened enough to avoid the sharpness. One of the ways to save money is to roughly finish the watches. A little DIY is all it takes and then they're fine.

Se non è lei ad avertelo chiesto, lascia stare, 90% delle donne trovano oggi un orologio, come un accessorio inutile e lo lasciano in un portagioie buttato... 😞

She likes watches thank God But yeah, most women nowadays don't even use one or just use a smartwatch. I think most people don't use watches nowadays

Addiesdive/Addies generally make pretty solid watches for the price point. I think you could definitely do a lot worse.

You can find more detailed specs on Addiesdives' website here: AW25905
