The Watch Thread - Part 9

[xuan87]

Like the color combinations available too! But i somehow find that the whole watch looks too busy? And i don't know if its the renditions but feels very toy-ish :/

I like the clean design of the other popular kickstarter watch, the Cherwell! The caseback design is sweet! Using sea-gull movement though compared to the Liv watch which uses Sellita.

The Cherwell looks good too, I like the 3D look of the dial, very unique. I don't really mind a Seagull movement but prefer automatic slightly over hand wound.

^ to all the questions above. Haha
I am not rich la. Just saw a good deal and got it when travelling.
Pre-owned sbdx001 less than 1.7k
And there are people with 5-6 figure watches. I am like the smallest fry in here.
The strap is $49. But I got it at $40 with some Nego

My bund strap for my Seiko Scallop is here! Finally can take it out of the box for a spin tomorrow

Also, looks like Gruppo Gamma has a new/new stock? model, the Genesis MKIII, using a Sellita SW 290! Quite pricey though and out of my budget for now.

They also have a tab for an upcoming model named the Divemaster. Given that they use the Iron Man HulkBuster armor but in black and gray color scheme, I imagine that it's probably a huge chunky name with DLC.

Hahaha but they changed the color scheme, so not red and gold, but black and gray. Check out the link.

That watch is perfect for CNY lol.

I thought the new model is the bronze vanguard blue and black dials? The genesis smz was awhile ago but i may be wrong.

Apparently the divemaster is still very much in design stage and possibly see it only in the H2 of the year!

Cant wait for my zelos helmsman to arrive!

SMLJ is this.

bezel from APRO, bracelet from PP nautilus, case from god knows where.

GP introduced the laureato in 1973... a few months after AP launched RO. The picture above is The original Laureato in 1973.
Almost exactly like AP.
In today's term...it's called "homage"
Like tissell and Steinhart

Only difference is that they used a quartz high-beat movt so that explained the "Quartz Chronometer" text on its dial

TGIF! Enjoy your CNY

I think the Genesis is a reissue. The earlier models came outfitted with Seagull movements right?

I like that it has a separate second hands but $890 is just too pricey right now.

First major scratch! Between the sundials at 3 and 6 o'clock

Lucky I ordered polywatch

Loot arrived

Immediately buffed off the scratch. 5 min job

 

[babychimz]

Yup it was updated with a Sellita movement.. It is abit pricey! Went with the others haha

Anyone knows how does the SW 290 movement differ from the more commonly seen SW 200 movement?
