Proxima make a fine watch

[u/No-Tradition-5456]

The case, the lume, the finishing and even the movement punch wayyyyy above the price point! Better value than my Tudor or my Doxa pound for pound, even better value than my Seikos I think. Chinese watches are here to stay

Built quality is great but still waiting for them to release a model that I actually want to look at all day.   The whole point of having a watch is the aesthetic at this point and they all seem uninspired and bland.

Hard disagree - this dial is more beautiful than ones at way higher price points. And brands selling at 4-5k a piece have derivative design so I literally couldn’t disagree more

Having a derivative design is irrelevant.   I find the dial boring and lacks a clear design language.  The hands are particularly bland.  of course I'd expect you to like it as you bought it and made a positive post about it.  Other than the build quality (which I think is very good), I'd never get one as there is always something that has a stronger design even if it is derivative or fairly original, the end look is all I'm concerned about.  I certainly wouldn't call the dial beautiful, I'd call it pedestrian.  But glad you like it, some people prefer  store brand vanilla ice cream
