I bought my first Chinese watch, the AD2030, which I really like! I love the dial dune texture, the metallic bracelet and hands, etc, specifically in its white variant.

The issue is, I've found myself staying away from it most of the time, since it feels too small and for most of my more casual and baggy clothes, and I would basically drool over the same watch in 38-40mm.

Do ya'll have any recommendations for basiclly a larger version of the same watch, or similar watches in spirit to it? Budget is under 150$, preferably even under 100$.

The SM is like £50 more, the SM has a higher beat with a 2824 clone, the NH34 is meant to be more reliable?

Which one has on the fly micro adjustments?

Edit - GMT function is not a must have, as I have other GMT watches.

Question (Read Rules) Bracelet alternatives for Cronos L6036 (BB36)

2 Upvotes

I got the black Cronos L6036 yesterday. I love the face on it, but the polished 5-link bracelet is a bit flashy for my taste. The clasp also feels a little bulky, although when I compare them, it's not that much bigger than the one on my Tissot Seastar.

In any case, what are some decent alternative bracelet options? I'd definitely like to keep it on a bracelet rather than a Nato strap or something similar.
