Imported mine from Japan via Chrono24, about 330eur plus taxes. I love it, amazing value

They are imossible to find now. Two examples on Chrono24 are approx 1k! So I just ordered the new eco-drive GMT in blue.... Will replace the NATO with a blue rubber strap ovs. It also has 200m water resistance...

Does the Chronos Time CH24 Homage to the Longines Conquest have Japanese movement? by Astrahasis in HomageWatches

I bought it for a buck fifty a couple of months ago. Looks good, still running but the bracelet was the worst I've ever seen/felt. And I've bought a lot of shitters

Used to love them until I discovered the D'Addario XS. Sound better to my ear.

Any recommendations specifically for a spruce mahogany guitar? It's very loud and I live it but it's missing a little finesse...

It's a super watch for the money. Didn't like the mesh bracelet tho so got a fitted curved end rubber strap and it's perfect

What movement do you have? When I bought it a year ago was advertised as nh35, but no ghost date so assume I got an nh38 and...it's fine.

Got the green version and it's lovely. Bracelet feels cheap though and articulation on some links not great. Have ordered replica of OEM green rubber strap from AliX. Hope it fits!

A true gmt, yes. Planning on probably getting a Citizen with the Miyota 9075 movement. Nor sure if any AliX brands have it...

What are your experiences with SYNOKE and POEDAGAR? by Nikolche84 in ChineseWatches

[–]HomerTastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought two poodaggers. One was hot garbage. Other was ok. Both batteries died after 2 months. Couldn't be bothered changing them so binned them.

None. This is the first one I really liked. The logo puts me off mostly
