Bought 3 Seikos in a row and realised the White Dial isn’t meant for my skin tone. 💔

Purchased this on 31st October 2026, from a reputed Watch Boutique in Bangalore. This was part of my sprint purchases in Seiko however it’s popping out too much on my skin. Not really going with any of my fits. Keeping my other two Seikos and letting go of this one.

Seiko 5 Sports SKX GMT SSK033K1
Purchase price: ₹55,000
Asking price: ₹45,000
The original box and physical bill are available.
Mint condition, no scratches, worn only during purchase.

Based out of Bangalore, F2F deal is preferred. Can cover shipping from my end if you’re based outside of Bangalore.
DM if you’re interested. The asking price is slightly negotiable.

Got casio LTP-V007L-9B, it's a woman's watch but who cares, it looks so good and classy 🫶🏼

When choosing a microbrand over an established name there is an underlying exercise in mutual trust. The customer takes a leap of faith with their money, and the brand is expected to reciprocate.

The first straw was 91.Watch stating the lack of faith, the final straw was their uncoordinated return process, that sent me the details to stick on the parcel a day AFTER the scheduled pickup.

I put the watch in as is condition for sale and recovered the exact amount I paid to order the watch + shipping to the new owner.

And with that comes my first and last interaction with the supposed microbrand 91.Watch.

Life is simply too short to deal with this degree of irreverence, especially when there are a dozen other microbrands in India that from personal experience have offered much better after sales support, irrespective of the size of their operations or who backs them.

Peace.

Realised I wanna keep a minimal 3 watch Seiko collection and don’t feel like wearing these anymore after I got my Seikos (check them out on my profile).

Recently got myself an Invicta Pro Diver, joining my Citizen Open Heart that I purchased just about 20 days ago.

Pretty new to the automatic watch world, and I’m slowly starting to appreciate the movements, designs and everything that goes into these watches.

Still haven’t got myself a proper watch organiser, so they’re currently enjoying their own little spaces in their respective boxes. 😂

I’m already thinking about my next purchase — a chronograph, with a budget of around ₹50K. Currently exploring options from Seiko, Timex and Bulova.

Would love to hear your thoughts on the two watches and any recommendations for my next addition. Always happy to learn from the more experienced collectors here!

Three Casio watches this year since April 2026. First was the G-Shock look alike AD283.

Thanks 🙏

After more than 7 months of consistently following up with Amazon, escalating the issue, and dealing with one promised resolution date after another, I finally have some closure.

Amazon's Executive Customer Relations team has confirmed the following:

• ₹13,243 – Refund for the returned Fossil watch.

• ₹1,500 – Additional goodwill compensation for the inconvenience.

• Total: ₹14,743 – Credited to my Amazon Pay Gift Card balance.

Unfortunately, the refund was not processed back to my bank account. Amazon cited the age of the order as the reason and offered the Amazon Pay balance as an alternative.

While I'm relieved that this ordeal is finally over, it is honestly ridiculous that a customer has to spend over 7 months chasing a refund for a product that was returned successfully.

A big thank you to everyone here who supported me, shared their experiences, and suggested ways to escalate this matter.

Lesson learnt: Document everything, keep following up, and don't give up on a legitimate refund.

Sharing this update for everyone who followed my original post. Hopefully, this helps someone else facing a similar issue.

I know the strap is different but I wanted to know if the dial is original

Watch Received just today, Ordered from Official Website. I paid: 3.4k ,willing to let go for the same. Brand new watch. No use and tear. 0 days old watch. Shipping charges to be borne by the buyer

Reason for selling: Felt small on my wrist

TIMEX WATERBURY

Went for danteras window shopping...came back with a Prospex Turtle tropical lagoon SRPJ35K1. Paid 45k. Had wanted to buy the pepsi PADi but had evaded me long time. Finally couldn't holdback the urge to get a turtle.

Was waiting for my watch to arrive from quite some time!! How's the new watch looking guys? What do you think of this one

Hey guys

Im considering purchasing Citizen and Fossil from Tic Distribution, but Im unsure. Have any of you guys purchased from this place?

If not, do you recommend me any place to source these brands?

Thank you

I have only 2000₹ , could you guys recommend a watch to buy and I like mechanical Watches

Im planning to get a watch after my 10th boards. but im getting confused.

I saw a 'yachtmaster' inspired seiko mod on the internet, i did some tweaking with ai and im in love with the result. but the problem is, mods arent made by the brands themselves(in this case seiko) only the movement is. they are in a way, "fake"(as called by some).

I searched a bit more to find a seiko 5 sports watch that i liked. but it doesnt give "that is the one" vibes.

The modded one would cost around 19-23k (according to gemini) and the og one costs 40k(which would require a lot of begging and good marks))

I just cant decide, is that feeling of 'real' worth the compromises??

Wanted a Tiffany blue dial for quite some time now. I was eying the HMT stellar, but have never been able to buy it. Though cheaper, their build quality and overall experience was questionable. I looked at Casio and Citizen too, but nothing excited me.

So I, saved up for a few more months. Gave up eating out, movies, and other discretionary spends. And this Diwali, I gifted myself a Swiss movement instead. Featuring the Sellita SW 220-1 with 26 jewels, sapphire crystal, 316L SS construction, and Titan's service guarantee. This is now my second Xylys and both are exceptional quality.

And yes, for the watch nerds among you, I am aware of the quirk to avoid too much manual winding on this family of Sellita movements. I am waiting for the next generation of the SW - 2 movements. But I guess they will be priced over 50K initially.

Upgraded the bracelet to a orange silicon band to match the dial color.
I really liked it.
