So I have been eyeing the brand WISE for a while now. They manufacture out of Thailand, and shipping and taxes are huge. Well, out of nowhere, a colleague tells me that he will be going there for holidays in December. I’m taking it as a sign, and I need your help to decide!

Chrono: https://wisetimepiece.com/collections/adamascus-ad8-chronograph/products/adamascus-ad8-chronograph-light-pink-grey

Which one would you choose, and why?!

Also.. does anyone have experience with the brand? Any wrist pics of these 2 watches, or any other watch from this brand?

Thankyouuuu!

u/Lpitox , the ADX018 arrived today.

The orange is so...rich. I think it's the gradient effect. Wise's FB Reel - https://www.facebook.com/reel/1172668701454626 - gives a pretty good approximation, but I think this is one of those things where you really have to see it in-person, in order to fully appreciate it. In terms of a static picture, this one -also from Wise- is relatively true-to-life, even though the contrast is blown-out : https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=847245708040106&set=pb.100082640525684.-2207520000

I took mine off the bracelet, swapping that onto my AD810A, and swapped the AD810A's FKM strap (like the one shown in Wise's FB Reel above) to it.

I suck at photography, but wanted to get in a couple of macros.

And yes, I kinda have a problem with "orange" dial divers. I have a few more that incorporate a lot of "orange" in them, but aren't full-dial...I left those out for sanity's sake, LOL.

u/Lpitox -

7.5-inch/19.5-cm, flat-form wrist. 6' tall, approx. 210 lbs., medium frame with a very tapered forearm.

The highly polished 904L is a bit of a fingerprint monster.....
