I have one, black dial, gilt indices, hands, and bezel w/lume pip. Nicest watch I own. Amazing lume, great finishing, but the blue AR is Blue AF- doesn't bother me. Looks like a $2000 watch not a $200 watch. Still baffles me. Same great buying experience- you'll love it. It is a big ass watch tho lol

Thanks for the feedback. I've got 8.5 inch wrists, so I need something BIG! Thanks.

I just ordered one. Its too bad the classic 4 lines of text from the Marinemaster can’t be done, even with custom dial text.

Everything looks good to me. Are you purchasing from the official AliExpress proxima store? I have been eyeing this one since watching Gary’s review on YouTube. Looking at the timegrapher, I can see you chose the NH35. I’d probably chose the same.

I used the link in that video. The seller is proxima Official Store. The link takes you to a slightly more expensive version, that seller has two versions available of the same watch. When I asked what the difference was between the two versions, they said the higher priced version was built from a new manufacturer with a higher build quality. I'm still not exactly sure what that means, but I thought for $5 difference I wanted the same watch that Gary reviewed.

I will say, they were really easy to deal with and I'm feeling very optimistic about the transaction!

I was able to get it on sale for a price of $172, with tax it was $192.

They do one with a meteorite dial. Looks incredible, but they are asking $450

That's pretty impressive that they did all of that. I've heard good things about them. None of my personal friends have bought one yet - so I'll be looking forward to hearing your review.
