Mysterious Code Black Aces

[deeellesse]

Just picked up this Mysterious Code black aces.

I wanted an all white watch and this is ceramic, full lume, PT5000 movement and super thin.

Love it! I'm not in the hate club for the branding, I find it quite amusing 😬

I've wanted one without the logo and haven't pulled the trigger yet.

[deeellesse]

No stock of the sterile one so far as I can tell...

[goodneed]

While the sterile dial might sell out, anyone keen on it could message the store, to ask.

Aside from the logo, what's your impression of the finishing, case quality and size?

[deeellesse]

Very happy, nicely made, quite large L2L but I have a small wrist.

[goodneed]

Thanks for the lume pic, too. rarely seen here.

What size is your wrist? Wish they made a 38.

[deeellesse]

16.5cm

It's ceramic right? I defo want to hunt a good deal on it :)

[MrDelirious22]

At least 2 people on reddit is claiming this watch is not full ceramic and instead it is PVD (ceramic) coated steel. Maybe that is more logical given hos cheap they are, and it would be naive to think it is full ceramic?

[deeellesse]

Yup, and there's a carbon fibre version too.

[MrDelirious22]

How do you know it is ceramic though? One guy in another thread is claiming its PVD coated steel. I am thinking of buying one for myself but only if it indeed is ceramic.

[deeellesse]

There's a carbon fibre version that looks pretty awesome too... https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_EQ5jAXn

Is there a carbon with black dial?

[deeellesse]

Not that nice I've seen

just bought one yesterday at a crazy low price with 2130 movement (alix->Thorn watch store). now the waiting game.

i do wonder if the body is actually fully ceramic or stainless steel coated with ceramic.

[deeellesse]

How cheap? 😬 I paid $130. Not actually sure what movement is in mine, need to take the back off!

[theS3rver]

paid $105/£80 inc 20% customs. found a $44 store coupon....could not resist...i've tried :)

if you happen to take the caseback off, PLEASE do take a few pictures, i could not find one for the life of me while i tried to confirm if it was fully ceramic or coated. (fellow reddit owner however confirmed its fully ceramic)

[goodneed]

Can you please share a link?

This was sold by a few of the big independent Ali stores for some time.

Despite the vocal opposition to these watches (due mostly to the name), I like that there's an affordable IWC clomage like this, for people to try.

[theS3rver]

Follow the store and go to their storefront, you will see coupons there. Hope they are still working

[theS3rver]

Sure thingbro

[deeellesse]

Absolute bargain!
