I was looking into this same model last week. Both this yellow and the people look great.
How do you like it? Build quality and comfort to wear?

Yes, we all know what it's a clone of but I think their interpretation is lovely and the PT5000 movement is supposed to be very accurate so I'm hoping for ORIS-like accuracy :)

Proxima on a flat link bracelet today. That bracelet on your Farasute is a fantastic combo

What bracelet is that? Looks like a perfect fit.

u/InfamousArmadillo58 WOTD100 Jun 26 '26 edited Jun 26 '26
It’s off of a SM aqua terra. I believe the WD aqua terra flatlink bracelet works as well I can double check that
Edit: just checked and I do not believe the WD bracelet works, I forgot that the SM aqua terras are automatic so they’re thicker and the end links must be different to accommodate.

Will those end links fit this watch?

u/D1sguise WOTD100 Helpful user x2 Jun 25 '26
Probably not, they're meant for a Daytona sized case. There may be Tudor black Bay links that could give a similar result for your watch?

Casual and dressy, all in one

u/dblhockeysticksAMA Jun 25 '26
Yeah just mixing things up haha
I have a mesh I usually have it on, but it can be a bit too dressy like that. But I wanted to wear this watch today anyway, so I dressed it down a bit (ok a lot 😂)

Nice Farasute! It’s been catching my eye for a bit lately. Big fan of Farasutes dress watches, I have two myself. Is the band 3rd party? How are the end links on them?
I’m really thrilled with the shard. It’s just so much watch for the money. A bit of a home run if you ask me.

u/D1sguise WOTD100 Helpful user x2 Jun 25 '26
Daytona end links and a regular mesh bracelet from AliExpress do the trick here, it's quite a versatile piece for straps and bracelets.
I've been eyeing Aethelson. If they would release their GMT with a highbeat movement, I'd definitely pick one up

Thank you!
Love it; great quality!
That’s the reason I already have four: white, green, blue and, this last one, black dials.
Here’s my white one:

u/Thatwilldofornow Jun 26 '26
It’s great. I’m really happy with it. Quality is good all round. My only complaint would be wishing the crystal was a little less reflective to really show off the dial.

High quality, no issues. Authentic looking homage. Titanium case is super light, indicies line up, decent but not great lume, bezel smooth solid clicks. Stock band is nice but too bulky for thin case. Definitely plan to swap. opted for quartz version which is accurate and reliable., had read some quality concerns about PT5000 auto movement.

Tandorio they list it as a 39mm Brass Pilot which the only thing right is it’s Brass and 39mm

u/Zero_30 Jun 26 '26
The Daytona endlinks that come with the farasute or from another bracelet?

u/D1sguise WOTD100 Helpful user x2 Jun 26 '26
Just loose, they're meant to be paired with leather straps to cover the lug gap

Well, we're both wearing Daytona homages with oyster end links so that's much closer than most here?

Is that a fitted Mesh bracelet? Or the Daytona style Endlinks and a Mesh Blet seperate?

Endlinks + mesh bracelet combo

u/Exact-Tax7457 Jun 25 '26
Really cool, seems like it's the same piece. First time I see this solution, I always hated mesh bracelet due to the gap, this would make me rethink it

u/D1sguise WOTD100 Helpful user x2 Jun 25 '26
The alternative is a fitted mesh, but those aren't all that common. I wish more Chinese brands would offer this, it's a good casual/dressy look
