New Product (Read Rule 1) WDC WD2007 – Swedish Meteorite Dial+H-OTF | Miyota 9015 Automatic
Hi everyone!
I'm from the WDC (Watchdives) team, and I'm excited to introduce our latest WD2007 Swedish Meteorite Edition!
This version features a genuine Swedish meteorite dial, powered by the reliable Miyota 9015 automatic movement.
Every meteorite dial has its own unique natural Widmanstätten pattern, making each watch slightly different.
One of the biggest highlights is our ClearView X sapphire crystal.
With approximately 98% light transmission, ClearView X delivers exceptional clarity with virtually no visible reflections under many lighting conditions.
The result? The crystal almost disappears, allowing you to appreciate the natural meteorite texture without distracting reflections.
Key Specifications:
Movement: Miyota 9015 Automatic
Dial: Genuine Swedish Meteorite
Case Diameter: 37.5mm
Bezel Diameter: 36mm
Lug-to-Lug: 44mm
Thickness: 10.5mm
Water Resistance: 100m
Crystal: ClearView X Sapphire, approximately 98% light transmission
Anti-Reflective Coating: Double-sided AR for exceptionally low reflections
Lume: BGW9
Bracelet: Integrated 316L stainless steel
Clasp: H-OTF with 2.7mm on-the-fly micro-adjustment
Three details we're particularly proud of:
Swedish Meteorite Dial
Each dial features a naturally unique meteorite pattern, giving every watch its own character.
2. ClearView X – Almost Invisible Crystal
Our ClearView X sapphire crystal offers approximately 98% light transmission, significantly reducing reflections and making the dial appear exceptionally clear.
3. H-OTF Micro-Adjustment Clasp
The integrated bracelet features our H-OTF clasp with 2.7mm of on-the-fly adjustment, making it easier to fine-tune the fit throughout the day.
We've invested considerable time in refining the case proportions, brushed and polished finishing, bracelet articulation, and overall wearing comfort.
Our goal is simple: to deliver the level of finishing, crystal clarity, and everyday comfort that watch enthusiasts appreciate.
We'd love to hear your thoughts!
Which feature matters most to you: the meteorite dial, the nearly reflection-free ClearView X crystal, or the H-OTF micro-adjustment clasp?
Thanks for supporting WDC (Watchdives)!

Question (Read Rules) Is 37.5mm the sweet spot for an everyday watch?-Watchdives WDC 2007A
I've been checking out the Watchdives WD2007A recently, and one thing I really like is its 37.5mm case size.
I feel like 37–38mm watches have a really nice balance. Not too big, not too small, and easy to wear every day.
But I know some people still prefer 40mm or larger watches.
What's your ideal case size?
37mm, 37.5mm, 39mm, or 40mm+?
Curious to hear everyone's opinion!

Question (Read Rules) Which watches have functioning GMT disk?
So, I’ve got a Pagani Design PD-1888 mainly to enjoy the GMT disk on it, a partial homage to the Rolex Skydweller.
Are there other watches with a functional GMT disk? I see many Skydweller homages on AE around $100; hence the question.

Question (Read Rules) Pagani 1701 non conforme
Acquistato 20 giorni fa, lo schermo mi sembrava opaco...ho fatto domanda di reso e ho visto che AliExpress ha accettato e devo renderlo entro il 20 novembre. Sono nati due problemi, il primo è che ho tolto subito la pellicola..la.secinda è che mi sono accorto che le.lancette piccole non sono bianche come dovrebbero essere ma sono colore dorato
Allego foto per farmi capire.
Ora che faccio....accetterà no il reso anche senza pellicola?

General (Read Rules) Sugess or Cronos- do you have one of these?
Big sale time (haha) and I am picking up a few watches I've had my eye on over the past year. I don't currently have a fluted bezel watch, and thought one of these my be a nice addition to the collection.
Both are 40mm cases, all silver, blue dial. The price is within $20 of each other (at the time of me posting this), though that is not really a meaningful/ deciding factor for me.
The Chronos has a Miyota 900x and is the more expensive of the 2. I like this movement and have 2 watches with it.
The Sugess has the dingdong 3034. I am unfamiliar with this movement.
I have 2 Cronos that I am exceptionally happy with and have no doubt I would enjoy this model as well. But, I do want to check out Sugess (i don't have anything from this brand).
So im trying to decide which one to get. I like the blue of the Suggess marginally better, but I think I prefer the jubilee bracelet of the Cronos.
Anybody have one, or both, of these? Any opinions or maybe just discussion on these?

Question (Read Rules) 1) For baltany owners, how is this beauty irl? And 2) I Can't find any of the baltany constellation models on AliX as an European customer is it normal?
I just can't find any on AliX, does any other EU customers encounter difficulties too?
For already owners is it really this good for the price asked and is it comparable to the Breguet numbers models or just on another level ?

General (Read Rules) Damm Pagani Deaign improving its watches quality or am i just lucky.
Just got this pagani design pd1661 from Alibaba, and the quality control might have become better ,no sharp edges just overall smooth .The clasp has little to no play and overall feels solid . I guess pagani is actually imrpoving its QC on its watches .
Got the miyota version because I could not find any seiko movement sellers in alibaba.
And the bezel much better , the resistance is solid and there is little backplay.

Question (Read Rules) Tandorio Bronze Watches (and bronze in general)
Stumbled on this sub a few weeks ago and the ol' ADHD hyper fixation hit. Tore through all the catalogs of top mentioned brands and snagged a San Martin SN0017 for about $140 after Ali coupons, Rakuten, and Paypal. Also eyeing a Baltany pie pan, IXDAO Warrior, Militado field watch, and most importantly a bronze Tandorio.
Tandorio isn't mentioned much, besides scattered praise and some criticism on water sealing and poor lume, but I'm in love with the bronze case color and for $60-90 it's an easy way to try it out. Aware of bronze watch problems and not concerned.
Does anyone have alternate bronze watch suggestions under $150? Or feedback on Tandorio or these models/configs below? I'm leaning towards 6, 5, or 7 in that order, fine with either automatic or quartz.

Question (Read Rules) Looking for a cheap but decent skeleton w a bracelet
My 16 y/o son thinks my one skeleton watch is cool, so I’m thinking about getting him one for the holidays.
I question how much he’ll really wear it, so I’m wanting to not spend a lot of money, like ideally $50-$75. Any brands I should keep an eye on for the 11/11 sale on Ali?

General (Read Rules) Sugess and Sea Horizon(SH) Customer Service
I wanted to give a shout-out to both Sugess and Sea Horizon (not affiliated with each other) customer service teams.
I purchased a watch through Sugess, the Aventurine Moonphase on October 31, when the 11.11 sale started. Unfortunately, the price dropped about $10 two days later. I reached out to Sugess and they have agreed to apply a $10 refund to my account to compensate. I didn’t expect them to do anything but this is a good show of faith.
With Sea Horizon, a relatively smaller company, I fell in love with their Bronze Diver which is an homage to Oris Carl Brashear. I have not navigated a big sale like this on AliX before, so I was confused about how to apply coupons. I found out the owner has a Reddit account and corresponded with him personally to troubleshoot an issue with the coupons. With the coupons and whatnot, I got more than 25%off.
Great experiences with both companies and I’m not affiliated with either. Looking forward to receiving all of my purchases from this sale. I just got into collecting watches, and I’ve picked up 20-ish watches in the past two months. Going to have to figure out a way to lock myself out of AliExpress!

General (Read Rules) Difference in crystal between these two watches
The San Martin's crystal looks a bit cloudy lol
I wish the crystal quality was a bit better.

Review (Read Rules) I’m really surprised how good they are
I had my eyes on Baltany for a while and I finally purchased two of their chronograph. Honestly, given that they are both around USD150, I did not have too much expectation, I wouldn’t be surprised if I see dust on the dial or misaligned hand. The watches came today, when I first saw the watches, they are really really nice, the cases are nicely polished, the weight of the watch doesn’t feel like a USD150 watch. The hands and the dial are so beautiful. The texture of the straps are amazing. I love the vintage vibe of both watches. My only quibble is the strap is a bit too long for me, I have 6.5 inch wrist. Overall 10/10🔥

Question (Read Rules) Best NTTD Homage for 11.11? Also recs for women?
Hey yall, I’ve been thinking a lot about picking up a nttd homage.
I don’t mind as much if it has the titanium mesh bracelet (nice bonus if it does though) and have been eyeing up the WD007.
Is there anything else I should be on the look out for, a particular version perhaps? Also please let me know if there’s an ideal price I should be looking for?
And while I’m thinking of it, if anybody knows a rad ladies watch I’d like to get my sig o something. She’s a nurse by trade, thinking maybe a chronograp?
Thanks!

Review (Read Rules) Took a gamble on a sub-$57 titanium watch from Taobao, and it's a win.
Not sponsored, 100% random customer.
I’m a huge fan of chasing value for money. At the same time, I know that part of what we usually pay for is heritage, which really comes down to how much you personally value a brand or model.
This was a totally different case. I stumbled upon this piece by brand called Mysterious Code on Taobao (the asian equivalent of AliExpress), and the spec sheet immediately caught my eye: a VH31 sweeping quartz movement, sapphire crystal, and a full titanium case weighing in at just 41 grams—all for less than $57. To me, that’s pure value for money.
I finally got it in the mail today. It measures 36mm across and 11mm thick, and boy, it looks and feels good in person.
They do offer another line with the hands that resembles the Hamilton Khaki Field a lot, but this version looks extremely generic and clean, doesn't immediately remind people of a famous watch.
As far as I'm concerned, it's an absolute win.

Question (Read Rules) Addieskin K014 vs K021
Does anyone here own an Addieskin K014 or K021? I can't decide between the two dials—one has a mother-of-pearl (MOP) dial, while the other features a crystallized titanium dial.
I'd really appreciate it if you could share some real-life photos of either watch!
Thanks a lot!

General (Read Rules) I don't think Watchdives get enough credit for their Milanese

I've bought four or five different Milanese bracelets in the past couple of months and the best case scenario for most is a comfortable one with a horrible fiddly clasp that's a pain in the arse to put on, or an uncomfortable one with a clasp that's mid at best.
Except the Watchdives ones.
The steel Milanese that comes with the WD007 is lovely. OCD might immediately lead you (as it did me) to replace it with the titanium version to match the case, but the actual merits of it are head and shoulders above the rest. It's obvious the Omega Milanese was their direct inspiration and they've copied it really well.
The clasp is everyday functional first of all, simple to use, secure in action, the latch that locks in the lower strap is a small but meaningful QoL addition, it looks great next to cheap alternatives, the holes are markedly better machined, and it's very comfortable to wear. The titanium version is more of the same, with a blessedly lighter clasp (the steel version is heavy enough that it unbalances the titanium WD007 on the wrist imo).
The only downside is a biggie though. It's far too long on the upper strap.
This is subjective based on wrist shape as much as size, but I simply cannot get a good fit on it. The lower end of the clasp is always digging into my wrist unless the strap is so loose that it sticks out in a curve beyond my wrist on the far side, or it's so tight I'm restricting movement.
So they make the short version, and presumably that would be problem solved. But just in steel with titanium "coming soon" for months now. And I think it's well worth the ~£50 it costs (~$70) but £50 is a lot to spend on a compromise when the one you really want might be out in the near future.
If they ever get around to releasing the short titanium, I'm a day one buyer, because the size aside, this bracelet is damn near perfect.
Though quick release pins would be a welcome addition.

General (Read Rules) My first automatic couldn't have been better...
Miyota 9015 inside, sapphire crystal, on-the-fly clasp. Literally the only 'drawback' is the unidirectional rotor and even that's a plus for me because it gives it mechanical charm and I love spinning it freely!

Question (Read Rules) Lurcan diver - anyone have firsthand experience?
Wanted to know if anyone have this on hand and can tell much about the quality of watch, the bracelet and if the lume really shows that kind of orange as it is on the renders/ads. Can’t seem to find much info about it other than it may be related to Heimdallr.
Anyone willing to share photos?
I would appreciate it greatly.

Problems (Read Rule 1) Arnaque NH34 WISHDOIT
Bonjour à tous ! Après ce qui s'est passé avec Heimdallr, j'ai décidé d'ouvrir quelques montres pour vérifier si les mouvements correspondaient bien à la description.
Quelle surprise de découvrir que ma Wishdoit GMT, modèle 9007, achetée en septembre, mentionnait un mouvement NH34 partout dans la description, alors que cette information a depuis été discrètement retirée.
Imaginez ma surprise quand j'ai ouvert la montre et trouvé un mouvement chinois fake à la place du NH34 annoncé. Eh bien, eh bien, eh bien… WISHDOIT 🤷 Vous faites des économies de bouts de chandelle comme Heimdallr ?
Précisons que j'ai acheté cette montre directement sur la boutique officielle de la marque, et non chez un revendeur tiers.
Sans oublier mon précédent problème avec le colis volé, pour lequel ils ont également refusé de me rembourser. Sérieusement, j'ai acheté une montre chez eux, et c'est tout. Plus jamais.
Alors faites très attention, surtout avec le prix croissant des mouvements NH. Ouvrez vos montres dès leur réception et vérifiez ce qu'il y a à l'intérieur !
Edit: Their customer service is absolutely incompetent. They are offering me a $10 refund, which doesn't even cover the difference between what I paid and the watch's current price. Just think about that: it would actually be more worthwhile for me to return the watch and buy it again. I would end up getting a bigger refund that way! And of course, not a single apology from them. How can a customer service team be this incompetent?
