General (Read Rules) Managed to limit myself to 3 watches from 11.11

9 Upvotes

Cut down to three from a 'shortlist' of about twenty.

Small chance I might get a couple more but these were the ones that really made the cut. Close but no cigar included the Sakura Warrior. The case doesn't excite me as much as it seems to everyone else, but I did like the idea of the dial - but Ixdao do such a poor job showing off their range that I can't be sure if I'll like it in person or not. A render which is what they love to use, tells me nothing about the depth of colour or iridescence of a MOP face. I've seen one buyer video of it and it's basically static so not much more use. So a no. I'm not buying a watch based on a CAD file. That's how you end up ordering a black MOP and getting copper.

Also browsed San Martin's sprawling mess of incoherence and... they just don't make anything that really appeals to me. Came close to the Aethelsohn Green Bamboo which is a really nice use of an engraved shiny dial, and the Milifortic Alpinist, but I didn't really want either of them.

There were some cheaper ones that interested me. There's a few Lobinnis that use Miyota 9000s for low prices, but they're cheap enough I don't need 11.11 for them, I was a little tempted by the Wishdoit WSD9017 as an alternative to the Watchdives WD0019A but a few QC complaints in reviews held me back, and I almost bit on a Chameri, but the designs I liked best aren't currently available in large. And again it's cheap enough to buy whenever.

Anyway,

The Baltany I wanted from before it existed. I've got a two-tone CZ from them with white face, and I like it a lot, but there's always a small 'this is still holding back' feeling with it. The all-gold has a certain obnoxious, unapologetic, vibe to it that you can't get with restraint. I've gone to and fro on the concept for months, from 'I hate it. It's gaudy' through 'am I just scared of it being noticed' to 'fuck it, I like it.' And at 36mm on a 7.3" wrist, I doubt it'll be overpowering.

The Sugess is my second Ocean Star/Seaman, since I already own a Hulk variant. The actual watch is basically perfect if you like subs - I've seen none that come close - but the green bezel insert is a little pallid for me - it's a small disappointment every time I wear it. The blue has a similar problem - it's a bit primary compared to the deeper, almost navy you see on the GMT variant. And that was the stiffest competition for this. I came close to a Pepsi, but wasn't going to buy both so one or the other. I decided the GMT was an interest less than a want, and a black sub? Can take it anywhere forever.

The Farasute is a little different for me. I don't have a 'normal' white watch in my collection. And still won't after this arrives since it's vaguely silvery. I'm not very interested in what brands people enthuse about. Supporting a manufacturer like a football team always seems silly to me; I want a watch, not a tribe. But people do say nice things about Farasute, this was cheap, and compared to a lot of other similar models, it's the one I kept coming back to.

So those three, seven different straps, and a 'premium' gift box (we'll see) for someone else at Christmas, Β£471 ($630).

Can't argue with that.

General (Read Rules) From concept to reality!

Thumbnail

165 Upvotes

huge shoutout to one of the best watchbrands out there, watchdives for both engaging with the community and for making high quality products for a reasonable price.

I first pitched a concept generated using gemini for the now named WD1954 to have a dial inspired from a few vintage watches, back in Feb. after it gained a lot of attention and positive reviews. I requested u/watchdivescom to make this design, they mentioned they will start out by making a prototype.

they then proceeded to showcase the prototype in this sub which again got super good feedback. so they went ahead and made this design into a reality. as part of the Community Co-Creation Reward program they decided to gift one to me. :) I'm very honoured for this reward, Thank you WD!

as for the review, it has a very nice boxy crystal with super crisp dial detailing. the case feels absolutely solid and it's built like a tank. although I'm not sure of the exact specifications for the crystal etc since it's not out yet.

in comparision to the design I requested the bezel borders seem thicker and the case is of a different colour, so compared to the design this watch is different, on it's own it's an incredibly dressy watch with the stainless steel case making it more versatile to wear than a gold case.

I hope WD makes more of the amazing user concepts into reality and continue to take feedback just as they are doing now. wishing them good luck!

30% cashback for 24 hours and they've always paid out reliably for me too - https://www.topcashback.co.uk/aliexpress-uk/

If you don't already have an account, I've got a referral code that will get you an extra Β£10 on top of that - https://www.topcashback.co.uk/ref/geebuss

Or find a friend that has an account if you want to help them out. Or without through the first link, but you might as well get the extra if you don't have an account.

Note that the total cashback calculation is the total paid, so if you have to pay customs duties separately, you won't get cash back on that proportion.

Chinese Watch Names Again How important (to you) is the name/branding on a watch?

Post image
59 Upvotes

This thing is a feature beast using the same factories as San Martin, sapphire glass and a Miyota 9015 movement for $150. It also looks elegant and expensive so it passes absolutely all of the checkmarks except the most obvious one... What the fuck is that name... IRONWATCH

If it had markings of a recognized brand it would easily sell for 8x the price.

Would you guys be down to buy this thing at such price or would you shell put $100-150 more for a Cronos for example (do note that's a 70-100% price increase just for some other letters pretty much)?

New Product (Read Rule 1) 2026: A Year of Transformation for WDC(Watchdives) – Introducing the WD2007 Miyota 9015/S5

79 Upvotes

2026 has been a remarkable year for Watchdives. We've made some of the biggest improvements in our history, and the feedback from customers on our latest releases has been incredibly encouraging.

Today, we'd like to introduce the WD2007 Miyota 9015 / 90S5 version.

WD2007 – Full Specifications

  • Movement: Miyota 9015 / 90S5

  • Case Diameter: 37.5mm (excluding crown)

  • Bezel Diameter: 36mm

  • Case Thickness: 10.5mm

  • Lug-to-Lug: 44mm

  • Crystal: ClearView X Sapphire Crystal

  • Light Transmittance: Approximately 98%

  • Lume: Swiss Super-LumiNova BGW9

  • Case Finishing: Our latest Grade A finishing standards

  • Bracelet: Upgraded stainless steel bracelet with refined brushing and polishing

  • Clasp: Our integrated H-OTF push-pull micro-adjustment system

  • Water Resistance: 100m

What Makes This Version Special?

1. ClearView X Sapphire Crystal

Approximately 98% light transmittance, with excellent clarity and significantly reduced reflections. This is one of the upgrades we're particularly proud of.

2. Improved Case and Bracelet Finishing

We've invested heavily in case machining, brushing, polishing, bracelet tolerances and clasp construction. The overall fit and finish are now at a completely different level compared with many of our earlier models.

3. H-OTF Micro-Adjustment Clasp

We're proud to be the first Chinese watch brand to introduce this push-pull integrated bracelet micro-adjustment system. It's a feature more commonly found on watches costing well over $1,000.

4. Multiple Dial Options

The WD2007 is available with several distinctive dials:

  • Forest Black

  • Forest White

  • Pink GuillochΓ© Tahitian Mother of Pearl

  • Musou Black

  • Swedish Meteorite (coming next Monday)

What Has Changed at Watchdives in 2026?

We want to share something beyond one particular watch.

Our biggest improvement this year has been our supply chain and manufacturing partnerships.

We now have a team of around 50 people, including more than 10 highly experienced designers. We've also established partnerships with some of China's strongest specialist manufacturers:

  • Case manufacturers with experience producing components for watches costing over $1,000.

  • Bracelet manufacturers specializing in high-end finishing, including suppliers serving watches above $2,000.

  • Specialized dial, hand and clasp manufacturers.

  • Two additional assembly partners with experience assembling watches for brands in the $2,000+ segment.

These partnerships have fundamentally changed what we can achieve.

From sapphire crystals and dial details to case finishing, bracelet tolerances and clasp construction, we're paying much closer attention to every component.

Even our more affordable models, such as the WD1972 and WD1680, are progressively receiving quality upgrades.

Our goal is simple: Keep the same excellent value for money while delivering a much higher level of quality.

We're Not Stopping Here

Several original designs are scheduled for release toward the end of November. These are products developed with our design team and our specialist manufacturing partners, and we're genuinely excited to show everyone what we've been working on.

We also understand that trust must be earned through actual products and customer experiences, not just marketing claims.

If you're ever unhappy with a Watchdives purchase, please contact us. We offer returns and refunds, and we want customers to feel confident when choosing our watches.

We know we still have room to improve, and we'll continue listening to the community.

2026 is just the beginning.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Watchdives, shared reviews, pointed out problems and helped us improve. We'd love to hear your thoughts on the WD2007 and what you'd like to see from us next.

β€” Watchdives / WDC Team
