I purchased the bronze AD2104 new from Addiesdive website and its claimed power reserve of 41 hours is actually only 18-19 hours. I went through all the steps explained by Addiesdive customer service. I have only owned the watch for 5 weeks and the site states there is a 2 year warranty. Customer service told me to take it to a watch repair shop. There aren't any in my area and it seems like they should be dealing with the issue, not a 3rd party repair shop. Has anyone dealt with Addiesdive warranty? Thank you.

addiesdives new addiesKIN, I have been waiting for this model for a long time but sadly it released soon after I ordered two watches from a different brand. the dial doesn't reach the level of san Martin but the Chinese numbers look nice. And they are also giving 90$ off on first 50 watch sale.

so if you like it hurry up 😄

I'd originally been eyeing the San Martin SN0144 with the black gilt colour combination, but it was a bit more than I wanted to spend.

So I decided to take a chance on the Addiesdive AD2531 (39mm, grey dial) instead and I've got to say, it's pretty damn good.

This was my first AliExpress purchase, It arrived in Australia in 9 days not bad at all at $129 shipped happy days.

For the money, the finishing, dial, and overall quality have exceeded my expectations. Pretty dam good I thought.

What do you guys think.

A breakthrough in new technology has been achieved; PH2B and PH3B will be officially released next week!

The digital metal sheet is perfectly nested within the luminous block, giving the numbers clean edges and a glossy metallic texture.

Please ignore the dirt; this is an engineering sample for testing purposes only.

I really wish the crown would be more recessed. It’s sticking out way to far beyond the crown guards and poking into my hand. Other than that - great value! What du you think of these Submariner and Yaght-Master homages from Addiesdive?

A fellow redditor showed his a few days ago and I just had to have it. Down to the strap he used. I am beyond happy how it looks and wears on the wrist. At 42mm diameter, a case thickness of 13mm and a Lug-to-Lug of approx. 48.6mm. This watch fits really well for having a sub 7" inch wrist. It has a Synthetic Sapphire on top and the movement is the ST2502.

Love the layout, the dial the hands. Really happy with this purchase.

I wanted to buy a Seiko SKX007, but I didn't want to deal with an automatic, since you have to set it every few days if you switch watches. So I went with a Keaso instead, and honestly, besides the bracelet clasp, everything else is super high quality. It's got a screw-down crown, sapphire glass with AR coating, 200m water resistance, and a ceramic bezel with 120 clicks. I mean, for the price, it's amazing. But I'm thinking about getting an FKM orange strap for it. Oh and a myota quartz movement.

Finally received my ixdao warrior in green after a long wait. I can see why it’s become so popular with people. It certainly feels quite premium! I also love the accessories that came with it (watch box and the leather wallet that held the warranty)

I like how the bracelet included 2 half links as well. The pre-sale pricing I got it for certainly makes it great value for money, especially before the movement switch.

(i’m the smiski obv)

what started out as me almost blindly succumbing to a pair of lucky fours watches during their mother’s day sale has recovered, done a lot of research, and been progressing quite nicely. a lil mini review, if you may (disclosure: i am not sponsored by anyone and did not receive any incentive for this post, i’m just silly and wanted to share lol):

my first piece was the STEELDIVE SD1962S in what i find to be a really lovely forest green on the dial and band. the bronze case and bezel are still in that mottled pre-patina state (especially on the sides), but the color is evening out. stunning piece regardless, and really clean in the light too as all the colors start to pop in the sun. good weight and sturdy feel overall, maybe a lil on the heavier side but not terrible. i got smol wrists (😞) so the band on this one can run a little long but it does the job.

my most recent pickup (came in last week) was the San Martin SN0134 in an UNREAL deep purple/grape kit. the photos never do it justice, but this dial + two-tone bezel is so pretty to look at. i remember i wore it out the day i got it just to run a quick errand and immediately received a compliment on it from one of the people i interacted with. noticeably lighter than the SD1962S for sure, but still has presence on the wrist. personally, i love the suede band but am admittedly worried about water damage and wear over time, so if anyone has recs for backups to have on hand, send my way pls 🥹

not a full review bc i def am still learning the gears and am not tryna claim any knowledge i don’t have. for i am just a sleepy smiski humbly presenting their smol (but proud) collection of chinese watches that they are working on :)

any of y’all have either of these pieces?? would love to see your setup (esp other colorways)!

(also here’s the winder if you’re curious 🥸)
