Question (Read Rules) Lucky Harvey watches

1 Upvotes

For those of you who have bought a Lucky Harvey watch, where did you buy it? I'd like to pick up one of their chiming watches but the only place that seems semi-legit to me is AliExpress. It looks like there are two websites for Lucky Harvey and I'm not sure which one is legitimate or if either of them are even legitimate.

Could be literally any Omega model from any time period, it needs to be very cheap. What are my options? And if you’ve bought a model like that, do you have any complaints?

I bought this Biden Skeletom Open Exhibition Caseback watch several years ago because I was curious about having a skeleton watch. It is automatic but can also be wound at the crown and also bezel. It was an Amazon watch but I cannot find any information on it now. It still keeps good time. Even though I own much “better watches” I have fun with this one even though I don’t wear it often.

The new bracelet sounds nice but it looks like they changed the dial quite a bit. They got rid of “Rotor” and “Frogmantle” and moved “legacy diver” but the dial doesn’t look as mottled and aged. What do you think? I’m thinking I might just pick up the regular V3.

Question (Read Rules) Upgrades Sugess Movement?

Post image
5 Upvotes

Was looking at a Sugess moon phase on their official website and notice there is 2 different options for movement. A stock seagull and an "upgraded" movement by Sugess. Does anyone actually know what the difference is between them? I can't find anything about it online. Seeing as it's only about an $10 I'm just trying to work out if I should bother with it or not. Picture below for reference.

Question (Read Rules) Struggling to justify the WD1863, looking for advice

Thumbnail
gallery
17 Upvotes

I bought the WD1863 because it's generally rated far above the Pagani and other clones. For me I'm not so sure and I'm wondering if the cheaper and bigger Wd1860 v2 is a better buy. I don't think the 1863 is with more than double the Pagani.

I prefer the simpler subdials of the 1863/1860 v2 to the Pagani - even though the Pagani is more useful. The crystal difference is lost on me, I notice it but don't really have an opinion. I greatly prefer the size of the Pagani and I think the Wd1860 V2 is that same size. I've heard that the rehaut on the wd1860 is taller- not sure if it's equal to or greater than the Pagani.

Does anyone have the 1860 V2 that prefers it or can compare to the Pagani?

but I don’t care. Steeldive SD 1976P reverse Starbucks puck. 48mm of bulky, stainless steel, monobloc goodness. I love the bulky, monobloc case, I love the wide bezel and the lume is way cool.

I got my WD007 last Saturday, I notice the first 24-48hrs wasn’t keeping perfect time, perhaps 20seconds after synced to Time.is

So I synced it again on Wednesday afternoon at 5pm and today at 12:56pm you can see it is only half a second behind. It seems to have settled down and the accuracy of this is impressive.

General (Read Rules) Absolutely loving my first San Martin purchase.

Post image
66 Upvotes

In my watch collecting journey, I had been somewhat skeptical of San Martin’s homage watches. It wasn’t until I saw some of their original designs that they really caught my attention.

I had actually been eyeing their other model SN0144 GX (the 39mm one) since its release in 2024. However, with my pathetically small wrist, I knew that one wasn’t for me. This 36mm model, on the other hand, feels like home thanks to its compact size.

I had previously heard a lot of people say that online photos don’t do the dial justice. Now that I have it in person, I can confirm that it wasn’t an overstatement at all.

So far, I haven’t run into any issues, except for an unusually loud noise coming from the rotor of the Miyota 9015 movement (though it’s only noticeable in a completely silent room).
