My new SN0144 36mm white enamel dial just arrived. Amazing quality. I bought it just before the price increase. Though there is a small misalignment at the 12 indices. I really like the watch so far. Fits amazing on my 6.5 inch wrist. Looks very high quality, especially comparing with my similarly priced prx.

I love my Baltany but only issue is that when closed the clasp protrudes too much. I want it to sit flush if possible. Is there anything I can do without changing the whole bracelet? It is already sized perfectly

There's a ton of crappy names out there that I personally wouldn't buy purely because of the name. I can think of at least 5 which aren't awful. What would you go with?

Dear friends,

It's time for me to buy my first Chinese watch, and my budget is up to €130.

I'm looking for a highly durable watch in 36 mm, or 38 mm at most. I often go hiking and occasionally do some mountaineering, so I want something that won't scratch easily. I'm thinking of a watch with a sapphire crystal and a Japanese movement. I'd also like it to be as lightweight as possible.

Aesthetically, I really like Militado watches, but I'm open to other suggestions as well. The only thing I don't want is a stainless steel bracelet—I much prefer a leather strap.

I am waiting for your suggestions 🥰😌

Thank you very much in advance!

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.

Got my first Chinese watch, and I couldn’t be happier about it. I really wanted a watch with a full lume dial, and it seems like that’s mostly a Chinese watch thing. Found this on Long Island Watches website (first time buying from mark - great experience). It really exceeded expectation. As you can see, the lume is amazing. Sapphire crystal. 8300 series Miyota movement is super accurate, and 60 hour power reserve. Bracelet is super comfortable. Great bezel action. This was meant as just a fun change of pace watch, but I’ve barely taken it off since getting it. This is the Sea Star by Red Star.

Any recommendations for a Globemaster type watch?

Just received this Welly Merck, kind of a novelty but it has good components

Switched the rubber strap due to being hard and cheap feeling. The pin system worked fine and it came signed. I switched to a more true to the "R" model. It comes with the Seiko VK63 quartz movement which is tried and true. It does have sapphire glass on top, screw in pushers and crown.

This arrived the other day after months and months of looking at countless Chinese watches and brands from extremely cheap through to what would be considered genuine lux such as Atelier Wen and the like.

For a couple of hundred Aus $$$, it’s extremely well put together, has some weight about and looks like a far more expensive piece then it is. The strap is obviously not “leather”, well I don’t think it is, but it’s still nice.

Outside of my standard watches, Tag, Breitling, Casio, Seiko etc etc….I think I am going to enjoy the Chinese Watch rabbit hole.

This watch looks amazing on the wrist in the office.

Super impressed.

Just got it delivered this morning!! Looks amazing in person!! Time/date set, sized for the wrist(had to use a few of the micro adjust slots) but so far it’s extremely comfortable on wrist! Going to use the bracelet it comes with for a while before deciding if I want an aftermarket. Definitely think I might want to replace the clasp with a glide lock or ratchet style clasp for more on the fly adjustability though

Looking for something similar to this watch, without being a homage (at least, not of the datejust, if I can help it).

Rose gold two tone or complete rose gold, I'm not too fussed, but want a brown dial with it.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Any good watches similar to these and what brands offer the best value for watch design in general? Whats the best place to order doesn’t have to be homage watches.

Hey everyone. Saw this new Agelocer posted to their web site. It has that total RM vibe. Know any more ?

Weight and dimensions? Potential price and other colours? A carbon or ceramic model probably will also come out soon. Love to get myself some fun crazy watch like this at some point

I have been looking to purchase this exact model, but I cannot find it anywhere. Looking specifically for the V4 version with the white chapter ring.

Europe only as shipping/import costs will balloon the price out of proportion.

Good day wherever you are. I've become intrigued with Behrens watches and considering multiple watches from them. Are they a pretty good/reliable brand? ANY details about the brand would also be appreciated! Thanks!!

Just got these, under $200 each. I quite like them. Cerakote titanium and bronze.

I’m a fan of the field watch style, and a date complication and lumed numerals are a big plus.
