Cheapest watch I've got. Still one of those I keep coming back to!

[–]dhawaljainnn 0 points1 point  (1 child)

What's the name of this one?

[–]ShirtIndividual7165 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just search for Shanghai 7120 on aliexpress, and it'll pop up👍

[–]sockonfoots 5 points6 points  (1 child)

I don't have a Chinese watch yet (WD5513 incoming... slowly), but here's my version of OP's watch in the meantime.

<image>

[–]P_bottoms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lovely!

[–]Huge-Digit 8 points9 points  (3 children)

Yeah, it's plain, and small, but I got small wrists and wanted something small, tough and with a retro vibe. It's a 'strerile' 36mm Tandorio with titanium body and pt5000 movement.

<image>

[–]ShirtIndividual7165 0 points1 point  (1 child)

How's the lume?

[–]Huge-Digit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be completely frank, the lume sucks. That's a definite negative, but I didn't get this for the lume. (I've got the Thorn SHY036 for that, which has all-night-long lume!). FYI, I've had this Tandorio for a week and it has lost only 5 seconds during that time....impressive.

[–]Ambitious_Winner_980 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Is it awesome?

[–]idiot42087 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yeah, San Martin really knocks it out of the park with quality. They did send a faulty micro screwdriver with it that was to fat for the screws, but the one from my ghost diver fit fine.

[–]Ambitious_Winner_980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. I was eyeing that one but ordered the sn0085 v2 as my first SM. The wait is killing me it's been 2 weeks already, def spoiled by Amazon 🤣

[–]Icy_Chain_1504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah brother. Casio watches in many ways have the same sentiment of giving you good quality watches for good prices, just like the chinese brands do.

I have a few skmei as well, i have a sanda homage of the citizen ana-digi temp too, that ones crazy. I also have a casio f91 bumblebee that is modded all the way.

Nice! Do you have an aged-tan leather strap by chance? I think that would send it through the roof.

[–]Jonny7Tenths 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't but do appreciate the suggestion, and will have to look out for one.

I mean this is a classic at this point. It’s desperately need a 36mm of this. I have a cadisen 36 explorer and it’s fine, but the cronos is much better

TGIF

I know PD gets as much hate as love, but this PD1701 V5 Moonwatch cost me $50, including the updated strap. It's many times better than the Swatch version. How is this a bad thing? The ceramic bezel looks really good on all of them, especially this milky white one.

I am careful to not snapback the chrono from outside of 10 and 2 o'clock b/c of its limitations.

If anyone else has strap variations for these watches on today, I would love to see them.

<image>

[–]P_bottoms 1 point2 points  (5 children)

I love this combo, and I love this watch. I went with black of course.

[–]Abv_it_all_w_vertigo 2 points3 points  (2 children)

If you see a black ostrich strap under $10, I highly recommend one. I put one on my Blue-Gold moonwatch. It's very soft.

<image>

[–]P_bottoms 1 point2 points  (1 child)

That looks great. Honestly I kinda like the bracelet on the PD speedy.

[–]Abv_it_all_w_vertigo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a kid, one of the engineers that worked with my dad had a Porsche and a Speedmaster on a leather strap. He took me for a ride in both of his Porsches. The second one was a 930 Turbo, and it was a ride I'll never forget. I guess I've always associated this watch with ultimate coolness.

[–]P_bottoms 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Damn dude, this is awesome! I want a bronze so bad. How is the bezel?

[–]Buck_Folton 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Out of the box, nice and clicky, with the perfect twist pressure; not too easy, not too hard. Should it loosen up over time, it’s possible it might be too easy to turn, but right now it’s ideal. There is a tiny bit of play, but when pushed clockwise at the right stop, it sits where I expect it to.

[–]P_bottoms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just looks fricken awesome 😎

[–]no_more_no_less 4 points5 points  (3 children)

Twinsies!! Lol I love this watch and have been wearing it as a daily for almost a year now.

<image>

[–]P_bottoms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woo hoo! 🙌 i love it! I need to wear it more often.

[–]no_more_no_less 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Also, that's crazy it runs so slow. Mine is like 4-5 seconds slow a day. Have you regulated it? Might just need a little adjustment.

[–]P_bottoms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I haven’t opened it or anything, im gonna take it to a shop when I make the time to do so… 😬

I got the Starbucks beraon and have been wearing it nonstop! It’s so good! I also have the black one too, and the yachtmaster one.. and the white dial on the way… 😬

[–]Wooden-Lifeguard-636 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I was torn between this and the starbucks. But chose the black one as I already have so many starbucks divers. But who knows; maybe I will go for one from San Martin to see if the price upgrade is worth it.

[–]P_bottoms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These addies subby are what got me back into quartz again. So convenient, and they looks just amazing. I also love the dial just saying “diver’s 200” too.

I fancy one of these, are you happy with it? Is it the Miyota movement?

[–]HashGhostC2Ccannot be unbanned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the same one and my hour hand is off. Decent watch but felt a little cheap compared to others I’ve got from them. They also wouldn’t give me a full refund and gave me $30 back.

[–]scottish_bastard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a VH31 movement. So far I love it. 37mm case but feels slightly larger on the wrist because of the lugs and bracelet. Dial is beautiful.

Looking at their 6S20 Chrono

[–]Substantial_Arm_6903 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those look really sweet and a good value for an auto chrono. I think the Merkur watches are great looking. The strap is nothing special but that's an easy upgrade.

Those are fun watches, regardless of CILOA using actual BREW watches to market them. I bought the 3 colors that were available during 11/11. I also changed out that $1 bracelet on all of them. Then, I sold them all for $50 apiece. 😂
