Damn I'm attracted to this sleek and sexy little diver but that price for a Chinese watch. I don't know..$330 with a Japan NH35. Aren't these $50 movements?
Look at that double domed plexi!

Re: Sexy bronze diver
Nice watch but, how much of a bronze watch is it? Maybe a much lower grade??
Also, I've seen the NH35 selling for about $27. Good "throw away" movement though.

Re: Sexy bronze diver
If you search around at the various sellers of San Martin, Sharkey, Proxima, a.s.o. I am pretty sure you will find cheaper prices. Aliexpress and dhgate may also be worth looking.
For instance:

Re: Sexy bronze diver
Thanks for the link, the $330 was in Aliexpress and this is the Proxima. Nice to see cheaper options exist. [mention]Aikidosan[/mention] Good thought, I think Proxima is pretty good for quality, but still question what shortcuts they've taken. If I pull the trigger may have to upgrade the mvmt.hako wrote: ↑July 21st, 2020, 10:40 am If you search around at the various sellers of San Martin, Sharkey, Proxima, a.s.o.

Re: Sexy bronze diver
I have been trying to put a 6105 rep dial on top of a NH35 and I really need a date wheel overlay to solve the problem, Once I do I was considering a Bronze 6105 style case. See my ordeal here: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=3594
and here is a Bronze case I was considering

Re: Sexy bronze diver
I bought it here while on sale for around 210 usd

Imho that was a lot of watch for the price, case is real bronze and its easy to get the right patina on it. The only crappy part was the strap.

Re: Sexy bronze diver
Damn Kilo, missed that post, thanks for the link and the review. I have a nice target price now. $200ish seems perfectly reasonable.kilowattore wrote: ↑July 21st, 2020, 1:00 pm I bought it here while on sale for around 210 usd
