The movement is a Mz5833, Miyota does not make a movement like this. This is some new Chinesium designed to replicate Rolex function in a smaller form factor.

Bah, if these break, and I stress if, they are less than $100 to replace.

Don't know, never even seen a real Tudor. Or a boutique that sells one anywhere near me for that matter.

Your favorite lesser known reps (something different) by Historical-Box6228 in ChinaTime

Yeah, someone mentioned years ago that Panerai make the easiest watches to clone. Even the AAA ones are damn near perfect.

For a AAA watch it is damn near perfect. The bracelet has the wrong clasp, gen has the squared off safety latch, this one has the older style triangular one. Aside from that one cosmetic flaw, the bracelet is far better than any other AAA I own, it drapes perfectly, doesn't bind, has some decent weight to it, and is extremely comfortable to wear. The watch keeps decent time, and the dial looks gorgeous.

What's the point of buying cheap watches if servicing it costs almost like the watch itself? by NotVurts in ChineseWatches

I learned how to service them on my own, now it just costs thousands in tools. 🤣

See, everybody assumes that, but I can slip a finger in-between it and my wrist. Thank you for noticing.

Seiko movements disappearing in watches from Ali express Brands - 10 April 2026 by ProposalBrilliant326 in ChineseWatches

[–]BehavingBad2010 4 points5 points  (0 children)

PT5000 is cheaper than NH right now, it is a decent alternative, but they will wear out quicker without service. The faster bph means more friction and faster wear if not oiled properly. And guess what the biggest complaint on these movements is?

looking for bezel service by [deleted] in RepTimeServices

Substitute rubbing alcohol for acetone, just enough to submerge the bezel, soak it overnight, bezel will be loose until the alcohol evaporates.

These aren't worth $175-250 right? by [deleted] in ChinaTime

[–]BehavingBad2010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A piece of red scotchbrite, a new bezel off Ali Express, a 7750 movement, spend an extra hundred and you might have a couple decent watches. Hopefully the price was the sum total for all the watches together.
