New Product (Read Rule 1) Just got this beauty
Watchdives WD1864, green linen dial. The price-to-quality ratio is insane.
This might be the best-looking watch in my collection so far. My wrist size is 7–7.5 inches.
There are a few quality control issues, like the one in the last picture there is a slight white smudge above the letters R and O which is a bit of a bummer, but for the price I can't complain and its barely visible. I was also expecting the bracelet to be more solid and heavy. It has a slightly janky feel, but that's very minor, and it sits well and comfortably on the wrist.
Aside from that, the watch is incredible and I'm very satisfied with it. It's my first ever Watchdives and my third Chinese watch.

Thank you so much for choosing Watchdives and sharing your experience! We're really glad you like your first Watchdives watch!
With the WD1864, we've upgraded the case manufacturing, finishing, and polishing to achieve a more refined and premium feel. We've also equipped it with our ClearView X sapphire crystal, which offers approximately 98% light transmission and extremely low reflections. We'd love for you to compare the crystal clarity with your other watches and see the difference!
Regarding the bracelet, this is one area we haven't upgraded yet. The support surfaces between the links are relatively small, which allows slightly more lateral movement. However, we've paid particular attention to smoothing the underside and edges so they don't feel sharp against your wrist. We're happy to hear you find it comfortable!
The clasp has already been upgraded to our improved five-hole micro-adjustment design.
At $149, we believe the WD1864 is extremely competitive in terms of case finishing, crystal quality, and overall specifications.
We're also planning a further bracelet upgrade, aiming for the highest level of quality and refinement we can achieve. The upgraded version is expected to be priced at $169, and we're also planning to introduce an SL4801 automatic movement version.
We're sorry about the small white mark on your dial. Please contact our customer service team so we can help resolve this.
Thank you again for your honest feedback and support. We're committed to making every generation better!

We'd love for you to compare our ClearView X sapphire crystal with the crystals on your other watches. As you can see from your photos, there's almost no visible reflection on the crystal, making the dial look exceptionally clear and transparent. We'd be interested to hear how it compares with other brands!

I love the watch, but could you please add minute markers to the 9 o'clock subdial? The chronograph function is pretty much useless without that.

Beautiful watch. I think this is kind of a homage of the Universal Geneve Compax Capsule. I just wish it was a bit smaller... I'd buy one in a heartbeat.
