Watcha wearing?

My absolute favorite quartz watch... Especially for the 35 beans on sale.. ceramic bezel, sapphire crystal, 200 m wr l, solid end links, 316 stainless.. how the f#$ck do they do it? ....https://addiesdivewatches.com/produ...ivers-200m-luminescent-divers-stainless-steel.

 

**disclaimer** no disrespect at all to anyone here - not being a hater I'm very curious

can someone explain the allure of this "brand" to me? I've seen it mentioned on this thread multiple times and can't seem to understand it. They seem like basic replicas to me? There are a lot of reputable options from respected watch makers in the 50-150 price range. Curious what this brand has to offer other than standard watch performance with designs blatantly copied from well known references.

 

They are putting out watches with seiko movements, sapphire bezel, sapphire crystal, and up to 1000m water resistant. They have better specs than Seiko watches at sometime 1/3 the cost

 

It's jerky:thirty in the shop.

 

What turkey creek said. Well put TC.

 

Old reliable today

 

Momentum M50. A solid chunk of stainless steel. Excellent lume, built like a tank, and 500m WR. I’ve worn this one on many dives; it runs like a top.

 

I’m married and don’t need a watch, my wife and kid tell me what time it is

I just use the window now, as long as it’s light out, it’s their time, once it’s dark, then it’s my time

 

I picked up another Bulova.

 

Ol’ goldy. Haven’t been wearing my watches for a while so bought a tinkering kit and adjusted links to my sizing and here we are

 

Sangin Professional this week

 

Another PD I picked up/ordered... Sapphire crystal, Seiko vk63, screw down crowns and back, milled clasp with a divers extension but no micro adjustment?, The watch was very inexpensive... EDIT: it does have some micro adjustment hidden under the divers extension but it's tough to get at.... Also it the complication dials look purple in the bright sun and not blue to match the bezel..

Bulova - my Father’s Day gift this year

 

I really wasn't digging the purple on the PD so I switched to a Victorinox.. I swapped out the leather buckle style band to a silicone clasp type band.. kinda of a field or maybe dress watch I guess.... Has 100m wr and sapphire crystal so that's a plus....

 

I prefer dive watches for the easily read faces. This is one of my favorites. And yes, I know the date is wrong; I can’t see it anyway, haha!

So I bought this watch because the ad said it was Titanium and was frankly pretty cheap. I don't recall ever seeing a polished titanium but research from Google said that it can be.

The back looks titanium to me with that typical grey color. It doesn't say titanium anywhere and watches usually say it if they are.,.someone has this watch on watchuseek and they seem to think it is "almost certain" is what they say...

My thought is that if I open the back and it's also polished then it probably isn't because why would you polish the inside?

I'm also curious what kind of quartz movement is in there, it indicates it a swiss quartz and has a sapphire crystal but as with everything from AliExpress it's prudent to be skeptical....
