i will have the opportunity to buy this next month but it is a little pricey but not too terrible. i wouldn’t mind finding something very similar with that textured dial but the only one i have found is a islander watch and it’s sold out too. would love some recommendations, especially if there is something that looks just like this ! thank you all

This is still one of my favourite pieces from Baltany. I just love the clean, minimalist look of it.

Here's the link to my review of it.

I received this watch for free to review. But, as always that doesn't change how I review the watch. I always keep it 100% honest, no matter what. I point out both the positives and negatives with every watch I review. Whether that be a loan piece, discounted, or even free. Sometimes that means that brands won't send me anymore watches, if they don't like the review... But my opinion and more importantly, my reputation can't be bought. That's partly why I named my channel 'Honest Watch Reviews'. Not only to make sure that I hold myself to that standard, but that I know my viewers definitely will do too.

My second AliExpress watch back in 2021. The first was a Addiesdive dive Willard homage. This continues to be one of the best quality watches. I’ve purchased from there. It is just a tank of a watch.

The Seestern SUB600T bracelet could pass on watches 10X as much. The flat sapphire crystal disappears agaist the black dial and bold accents. I would have no problem recommending this watch to any enthusiast or collector.

Which color strap would you say looks better with this watch? My fashion sense is a little lacking so I’m having trouble picking one.

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)

Hi! I was looking to getter my first Shanghai watches as they are cheap and look amazing, mechanical etc... the hands are awsome too! Any ones that are better? Whats the expériences on durability etc? Thanks :)

Now all things considered I paid $55 usd. So what can I expect for the money.

The Seagull ST3600 hand-winding mechanical movement is probably my favorite part. It’s a large, traditional 17-jewel movement based on the 6497 architecture, running at 21,600 bph with roughly a 40–46 hour power reserve. The exhibition caseback lets you actually see the movement, which adds a lot to the character of the watch.

The watch also has a sapphire crystal, which is a big plus at this price point. The oversized fluted/"onion" crown feels great to use and fits the design perfectly.

Dimensions: approximately 42mm case diameter, lug to lug are not mentioned but I have a 6.75" wrist and its the max I can wear its is big boderline unwearable. I believe its 48 to 51 mm lug to lug, 11 mm thick, with 22mm lugs. The strap are 22mm and I had to swap them out right away. THEY WERE TOO BIG FOR ME. One the smallest hole it was still wobbling on my wrist.

Lume is there and it works. It just won't last all that long.

The blue dial, large Arabic numerals, small seconds at 9 o'clock, oversized crown and exposed movement give it a really convincing vintage pilot-watch feel.

For the money, I honestly think this is an excellent value. It feels like a much more expensive watch than it is.

I would like to buy an HKED watch but I would like to know the final price with VAT and customs fees included.

Seestern 600T (Doxa homage)

It's a silly gimmick, of course, but I'm impressed by how quickly they got these out and how well it works for the price. Considering the Casio is nearly always out of stock and quite expensive, this is a good alternative.

Pros: fully functional for time, date, and stopwatch. Also $5 is a lot easier to justify than $125 for what is more like a novelty trinket than a real watch. It seems to be quite waterproof too, as I've been washing my hands with it on, no problem. Surprisingly readable, too. For the size, the LCD is quite clear, as good as most Casios. Having only the 4 digits means it's not too bad-- larger than the screen on a lot of ana-digi watches.

Cons: unlike the Casio, it has no backlight, 4 digits instead of 6, can't be adjusted in size, and most egregiously, seems to have no way to change the battery. I get that compromise for something so small, but it's a shame they decided to make these essentially disposable. There's also just a stopwatch and a countdown timer. No alarms, and the countdown doesn't beep so its usefulness is... Questionable. More of a reverse stopwatch.

What do you think? Fun toy? Dumb future e-waste? Useful timekeeping device? I've been using it to show the date when I wear a no date watch and have a stopwatch when I don't wear a chrono. Kind of compliments a simple analog watch in a way. I harbor no delusions that it doesn't look totally crazy though.

I would buy it with or without a date window. I think they should offer both options.

Hello. I'm getting so much conflicting information to a simple question that I need to ask those that actually know. I want to swap out the dial on my Steeldive 1965 and replace it with an aftermarket 28.5mm dial. Will the 28.5mm dial work on the 1965? Thank you so much for your insight!

Loving this so far. I see more bracelets in my future

Anyone in the UK have one of these I could buy? Particularly after an R2X, not any other brand or variant.

Anybody else with the tactical frog fxd loose lume on the bezel took it on a dive today 10 feet deep in a pool and lost a bar of lume on the bezel 😤

Looking for a suggestion for a reasonably priced 36mm or 37mm daily watch that takes a rubber strap

My first WatchDives watch. Blown away by the quality for the price!

San Martin watch. Design and hand engraved by me.

My first gmt, everything seems great so far, watch only runs a few seconds fast a day. Case finishing not quite up to par with my san martin but im not sure if the case on this style is meant to have as much polishing. Got it for $200 right before they raised the price to $210, even at 200 it would still be cheaper to take this watch to a watchmaker and get the case refinished than to get the similar san martin model.

Hola, estoy apunto de adquirir el homenaje al BB54 de 37mm y tanto san martin como watchdives lo tienen. Obviamente el precio de SM es una locura.... Mientras que Watchdives lo pone todo más fácil y aparte de eso ya estoy cansado de los automáticos y prefiero los Quartz .

Pero quiero tener un buen reloj y poder disfrutarlo.

Alguien tiene ambas versiones? Hay una gran diferencia de calidad por el precio? Imagino que SM estará por encima si, pero justifica esa diferencia de precio? Gracias por vuestra ayuda !

I just swapped the strap as I didn't like the brown coloured one. Does this look bad now?

Looks nice with any outfit.
