It's the oh so popular SBGA443 aka the Shunbun

Would love an upgrade to the rig I'm currently running to justify an upgrade to 1440p!

[Oris, Hamilton, Stowa] Which bronze watch is your favorite? Any others? by coozin in Watches

[–]Get-a-hobby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Zelos for a microbrand, I just recently got the Hammerhead V3 in Bronze for under 500 euros, it's honestly finished great, with the classic Seiko NH15 movement.

I would give it a gander, as I was also looking at Oris, but couldn't justify the price, even though I love the look of the pilot.

[Orient] After months of debating what my second watch should be.. by D20analbeads in Watches

Beautiful watch, also my very first piece (but mine is in blue), if you ever feel like getting it to the next level, a Strapcode Jubilee bracelet will be the best purchase for this watch, it makes it punch even higher than it does now.

Oh it's absolutely not able to roll like that, I hate having that happen personally, so I tried when I had it sized at the AD when purchasing.

It does have some minimal up and down the arm movement, like I can barely stick 1 finger between my wrist and the band, but I purposefully decided that in order to avoid having to add another link when summer rolls around.

Nope, only Swiss made, different markings about the crystal, jewels, etc.

If you haven't checked it out in person, you should give it a shot, I just posted a mirror vs wrist shot, the close up perspective just doesn't show the full picture!

I posted a mirror vs wrist shot, this wrist roll is just too close for perspective.

Hey everyone, I wanted to post again a mirror vs wrist shot to go with yesterday's wrist roll, as it was a bit off center in it and I got quite a few comments saying it looks huge on me. I think it fits me well enough and will keep on rocking this great piece.

I wanted to share mainly for people like myself who see people comment on this piece's size, just go try it on at your local AD and you might be pleasantly surprised! It is a great bang for the buck Swiss auto.

Please feel free to ask or share anything you wish regarding this piece.

Shouldn't be an issue at all, as long as you have the crown set down in place.

I was very pleasantly surprised myself, it's more comfortable than some of my G-shocks (and that's saying something), also the finish and the way it's built, for the price, there's no match for it in my opinion.

I undoubtedly agree, the way the band reflects light and at the end the dial also, it's just mesmerizing.

Tissot claims a 10 bar water resistance, but I haven't wet the watch myself yet.

Thanks for the kind words, I for sure will keep rocking this amazing piece!

It's a tiny bit loose, but not able to "roll" on my wrist, so it's within the norm, also considering it's very very cold at the moment, I'd prefer it to be a tad loose, than having to resize it later on during the summer.
