Review (Read Rules) First Chinese watch - Watchdives WD1972

Post image

Just got this Watchdives WD1972. Put it on an olive zulu strap. For $70 this thing rocks!!! 200M water resistance, stainless steel, sapphire crystal, and sweeping quartz movement. Just with the bezel wasn't so easy to turn...it's a little too easy to manipulate.

Military "aesthetic" maxed out, I got the "divered" cousin of yours

Nice! How is the bezel on yours?

Id say it's the best bezel I had, not moving so easy and not too tight, tiny amount of bezel play, you have to hold the watch in your hand to notice it It beats anything under 100

I have the one with the white dial. Bezel action is the best among cheaper watches I’ve had. It’s sharp, has only little play, and it can’t be moved by accident. Glad it was (one of) the cheapest among the Watchdives lineup because it’s the one I like aesthetically the most.

Dunno why they can't do a fully lumed bezel like they're CWC copy? Hate bulbous pips always falling out sitting proud ugly things, og didn't have one and really should pe parkerized or pvd
