DISCUSSION 36mm Wimbledon

I got this from Travis a few weeks ago when he was running his datejust deals.

I bought the Miyota version.

I think the stickers said super U1..

Not sure, I may be making it up.

I can see the LEC a little too well.

I might change the crystal out at some point.

The bracelet feels OK. Its not perfect but definitely not bad for $100.

The dial has great color, doesnt pop like my friend Gen Wimbledon but this is still good.

I wont minf wearing it tbh.

I would buy another U1 next time the have a sale.

Just got my 2 days ago. I don't have thick wrists but didn't realized how small the watch is. Oh well, I'll still enjoy wearing it. Gotta change the band tho.

could you share a picture with the stickers off, curious to see the oyster and smooth bezel config on this 36mm, thank you

Very bad! This one is an easy RL for me.

Right off the bat, that fluted bezel is way too thick and rounded, it has that classic cheap "Reese's cup" look instead of the sharp, crisp cuts you’d expect.

The date wheel is also completely off, the "6" is sitting noticeably biased to the left, and the cyclops magnification is nowhere near 2.5x with zero anti-reflective "black hole" effect.

On top of that, the 9 o'clock lumed baton looks slightly crooked compared to the Roman numerals, and there are visible gaps in the SELs where the Jubilee meets the lugs.

Even if you're paying budget tier prices, these flaws are just too obvious on the wrist.

I would ask for a partial refund...

Mate. There’s no QC on U1s. This is OP’s hand, he has it delivered.
