The Watch Thread - Part 9

[osirisx]

I own one of their subs. the Green bezel black dial specifically

Pros:
great miyota movt with hacking/winding
screwdown crown is precise and smooth
build quality and ceramic bezel looks just as good as a real sub
(especially their black sub, looks 95% like a rolex)
Sapphire Glass with AR coating
200m WR

Best submariner homage you can get at this price point of 270 SGD without going up to steinhart. Much better than Parnis also.

Cons:
Bracelet doesnt fit my small 6" wrists, waiting for my leather strap to arrive
Lume is Luminova C1, much dimmer than C3 or seiko lumibrite. AKA the lume is very disappointing green dim color

looks good, how's the waiting time?

why buy watch winder need to buy expensive de? a $50 watch winder can also do the job in winding the watch ma... can someone explain to me? noob here sorry hehe

 

[AyuReady]

Few page below got explain. Cheapo watch winder is constant rate usually single direction. Super wear and tear.

Higher end one can be program to rotate abit clock wise then next cycle is anti clock wise etc. only rotate enuff to keep time accurate and balance out Lub.

Anyway let the expert weight in. I dun use because only one Rolex Nia hahhaa wear every weekend . Weekday let it rest

summarised version is, unless you have a super fragile or complicated watch, regular cheapo winders with bidirectional and programmable turns will do.

no winder also can.

I thought Rolex can run forever without servicing? Then no wear and tear...

Never expected that to come from you. Are you sure you are not joking????

 

[fade_white]

There has been cases where never serviced before Rolex still working after decades...
