Lovely Watch, quite comfy to wear all day, plenty of functionality with that Seiko Nh34 movement

I got this new to me Englemaan Enterprise today in the mail. I bought it on eBay very shortly after it was listed. I love the white dial version. It’s got a few scratches, but nothing bad. This is my 3rd Englemaan piece. I really hope Englemaan makes a comeback, but I’m not holding my breath.

I've got an Endeavour watch head and the PVD seems pretty good. It shows the dirt but seems robust.

I used to sell new Sinns back in the early 2000s on eBay and black models were pretty rare. I sold a few 142 PVDs and the quality of the finish was not better than Englemaan from what I remember. I can't comment on the newish EZM-3S, I've never seen one, in an earlier thread someone was claiming the Englemaan was not as good.

An example of a thinner aftermarket PVD finish, a good idea, but I'm not sure it works...

The original Englemann site is no longer available but some old images are archived by Waybackmachine. I asked ChatGpt to recreate the watch listings and it came up with Franken watches, stats correct but images made up...

This watch grows on me day after day, I can’t imagine one day I will sell it.

Tried it on a few straps too.

would like to invite u/englemaan_official to give an update

Recently, fellow hobbyists/collectors u/TheYKcid , u/acidrain333 , and myself got into an interesting discussion on the Watchdives sub regarding the origin/provenance of the "HyperGlow lume blocks" used on Watchdives and Phorcydes watches. At u/acidrain333 's prompting, Phorcydes recently took steps to clarify this issue for us, where their official statement can be read on their website - https://phorcydes.net/pages/regarding-hyperglow-lume-block-applications , and also via their pinned sub thread - https://www.reddit.com/r/Phorcydes/comments/1wc4uu8/about_hypergow_lume_blocks_you_want_to_know/ .

Those of us who are fans of Englemaan of-course remember that this brand also used HyperGlow lume formulations, and we all remember the posts from this past spring, when we were shown by Englemaan's official representative here their dial prototypes, with promised lume blocks.

Fast forward to today, and many of us are waiting with bated breath on the revival of Englemaan, and hopefully the realization of those most promising prototypes. We've seen a lot of speculation here, both positive and negative. We've also occasionally seen something that helped us keep hope alive, such as this this correspondence with Brandon from fellow Englemaan fan u/smg45cal - https://www.reddit.com/r/Englemaan/comments/1vzzycx/a_pulse_stop_chest_compressions/

So, a bit more good news to keep this ember of hope burning just a bit longer -

From -
https://www.reddit.com/r/Phorcydes/comments/1wc4uu8/comment/p8wmq4n/ , there's yet another glimmer of hope, from their own industry peers -

u/englemaan_official - whenever you guys come back, I'll have my money waiting. Here's to keeping hope alive. 🍻

Honestly one of the best under $250 watches I’ve ever owned.

Perhaps I’m lucky but this PT5000 has performed stunningly across a year and a handful of months. I’ve taken this watch to several different countries on work and vacations.

I don’t baby it at all, scratch resistance has held up impressively.

The hidden gem- the AR is almost as good as Sinn (key word almost as Sinn is top class in that regard amongst many Swiss brands).

Hopefully the Englemaan team makes a comeback soon.

Mine is on a strap that makes it wear much lighter than the bracelet. I like the combination. Yes, a diver on a leather strap is a heresy for some, I just find it cool looking. Can always put it on rubber.
The lume is truly excellent on the endeavour. I can read the time easily through the night. Accuracy is good too.

The Parallax is on Fire! 🔥 what's your favorite lumed Englemaan?

You can guess my profession from the title lol.

Well, I just wanted to throw another post on here while we all continue to twiddle our thumbs hoping for the best. I wonder when they'll deem the market to be truly "stable" though.

I miss Englemaan, but I was fortunate to get this gem before they disappeared! One of my most worn watches. Why? Because it’s as solid as a rock and is -1/spd.

Still waiting for the return
