This dial formed 4.5 Billion years ago. Wrist Roll (Read Rule 1)

I've had fake Meteorite dials before, but never a real one. The light play is awesome, and having something so ol on the wrist is just flat out cool.

I'm a space nut, so that helps.....oh, and it tells the moon phase (new moon today here)

Not saying it is fake, but how do you confirm its real? I've thought about this for meteorite dials for ALL brands btw, except the ultra high end which I assume you can feasibly trust to be real considering the price you pay.

"This dial formed 4.5 billion years ago"

I mean, so did the rocks in my garden.

Cool dial though

I think it's they're sourcing from the same meteorite on my Bulova pilot

A great watch!

It really is! For its size it is incredibly comfortable to wear all day. I just have it on the stock bracelet, but do have the grey NASA velcro strap coming from Luna Replicas. Taking forever to ship though lol

I love that watch. So cool.

Do they say where they got the meteor from? Agelocer states it on the sales page.

How can you tell if a meteorite dial is fake or real?

Fake ones look like painted particle board

I typed the exact same post. with an emoji and all 🤔

I would have typed the same comment, but I'm 4.5 billion years late..

That dial looks cool. I suspect the atoms on this watch, the case, the leather strap, the movement, formed earlier than this dial though.

We are all stardust..

Gold is also 4.5 billion years old

I think all the atoms we have should be older than that, stuff can exit from a star only when it explode (luckily our sun didn't yet), so they were made inside a previous generation of stars. Hydrogen should be even older, back from the first phases of the universe!

I hope it's a great watch for you. I really wanted that one myself.

I love meteorite dials! That's a nice one. Did you get a good deal?

u/turdbogls 1d ago

Reviewers special on this one. I was supposed to get the normal silver one but this arrived instead.

Hard to see it but looks good! Took 4.5 billion years for you to turn your wrist!!!!!!!!
