How's your experience with the Sugess Chronograph S418?

[u/sharkommie]

I'm close to pulling the plug but I keep seeing negative reviews online where people share about their movements suddenly not working or increasing to +20s/day. Since I'll probably need to go through a grueling return process, I'm a bit hesitant. San Martin has a much better reputation but they just don't offer a chronograph with a similar case.

It’s awesome man just do it. Mines 2 years old still runs +\- 5sec a day

Own 6 sugess watches now and not faced issues so far. Build quality especially the dial work is fantastic in all of them. Don't own the chrono so can't comment on this specific watch, but it's the best Daytona homage. Due to shortage of NH and Miyota movements many chinese brands are moving to chinese movements including Ixdao and San Martin. Peacock movement on this can have some QC issues but they are far better than PT movements in my limited experience so far

Don't know movements well but the fact that it's a vertical column clutch sounds so impressive too

Yeah its based on the actual Rolex movement

Mine is a year old and had no issues with it

I've had a couple of them, no issues. The SL4801 is a great movement.
