ADDIESDIVE Luxury Automatic Watches Men's Sapphire Glass Solid Stainless Steel Bracelet with Elegant Ocean Wave dial

I am a watch enthusiast with about 40 watches from cheap to luxury. Bottom line is this watch looks, feels and functions as well, as watches at 3 or 4 times the price. However quality control is poor and I had to return the first one due to poorly attached hands and re-purchase. Highly recommended for those willing to go through potential returns processing to get a good one. If you want a guaranteed easy purchase then don't buy a Chinese watch. Pros Price against performance is difficult to beat. Style. There is nothing new here, but in my view this watch looks better and is as stylish as my £2500 grand seiko. Sapphire glass is often not the best option for cheap watches because it can appear a bit opaque and dull the dial. Not in this case, it's a very clear crystal. Case quality is excellent with brushing and polishing generally as good as any £500 watch I have owned. Any minor defects require a very close inspection, or the use of a jewellers magnifying glass to spot. Dial and handset. The blue dial is better than pictures suggest and it can have a glittering effect in the right light conditions. Hands have sharp edges and are well made. Movement is a seiko NH35, which is well known for reliability. Having had at least 10 watches with this movement it is likely that the accuracy will be within +/- 12 seconds per day or better, but be warned you can get a much less accurate one. Comes in a plastic reusable travel case. 100m water resistant with a decent screw down crown. All the above make this not just a dress watch, but a tough practical every day watch. Cons Quality control. I have purchased 3 watches from different Chinese manufacturers and the first ones have all had to be returned due to problems, so be ready to get a dud. However I think this watch is worth the effort. The strap is really bad and lets the watch down, so you may want to spend a few pounds to swap it out, the watch deserves better. The blue dial looks fantastic, but on very close inspection it does look, and probably is plastic. Under a magnifying glass there are dust particles on the hands (not visible with naked eye). The addiesdive logo at the 12 o'clock position is a bit naff and cheapens the overall look of the watch. Recommendations Don't buy one as a present unless you've checked it thoroughly first. Good strap option is the Bisonstrap woven metal band from amazon at £12. Amazon has always been good for returns so it's a good place to buy a Chinese watch that has quality issues.

Seriously, I'm the exact opposite of disappointed.... Absolute Quality, Fabulous Styling, As For Value For Money, Well You Know My Answer To That.... Sometimes, one receives a lot more than they paid for... Thank you....

Bracelet are very good. Solid. Heavy. Watch are bit tall on wrist but nothing crazy. It’s not dress watch. It’s more casual style with great specs. Glass are amazing.

Spot on

Pretty good looking watch, quality is on par with watches twice the cost. Nice blue sheen of the coating shines through at angles in the sunlight.
