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!

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.

Beautiful watch! 330 bronze diver with NH35 is the normal price

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.

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.

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

Love that bronze case!

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.

Damn Kilo, missed that post, thanks for the link and the review. I have a nice target price now. $200ish seems perfectly reasonable.
