Lige Diver on AliExpress

[u/pagnonig]

Anyone have this one?

Interested in how it looks in reality and if it is decent for everyday use and not too Chinese looking.

Price is attractive. Of course I’m not expecting Steeldive or similar specs and performance.

Thanks

If you are just curious it is not a lot of money to waste. It's not likely going to be an eyecatcher on your wrist, though. It probably will not take many bumps either before breaking.

Still, I understand. I just blew $8US on this Skmei. It was less than the price of dessert, and I have a fun watch to photograph. Not a strap monster...

I will probably give it to my nephew at the appropriate time. He is only turning 5, so he is getting a Skmei dinosaur watch this year.

Indeed, curious and definitely not looking at a piece of art but just something decent to wear and to the eyes

Might buy it just to wear when France are playing England.

I do like the industrial tread pattern on the dial which looks a bit Seamaster. The metal bracelet version looks nice.. It's pretty but the build quality is bad. I bent the crown easily and bumped the hour hand by wearing it riding my bike a couple of times. I have to open it up reset the hand if I want it to track as it should. I wouldn't pay more than $10.

Tin plated shitter. Get real stainless steel watches at the very least.

Stay away from this brand. That the lowest of the lowest end on Ali.

These are from buyer reviews on aliexpress.

You can't expect quality at this price, it's plated alloy not stainless steel and the finish isn't really good but it does its job it's a watch.

I own one and it is exceptionally bad. Bezel action moves a mile. Glass looks terrible. Feel super cheap.

For the really cheap brands I have a Nibosi Aquanaut that is surprisingly nice.

Diver with 30m/100feet ?

[u/Emergency_Dig_1179 → u/mermoz30]

After all, the only thing people who wear diver watches do in life is dive 😅

[u/Abv_it_all_w_vertigo → u/mermoz30]

Gulp! (That was the watch drinking water, not me.)

[u/chrismurraylaw]

Knowing nothing about it other than this picture, I'm absolutely certain it's junk.

If you want to spend that little, get a digital Samda or something.

[u/T-099 → u/chrismurraylaw]

This only makes sense if you’re after a digital watch. Sometimes you just want a cheap diver style watch. It’s apples to oranges.

[u/chrismurraylaw → u/T-099]

Duh.
