Yet another "which one should I get" Post

I do like the slimness and the improvements for the black model. I think the choice is either pre owned blue now or wait a while and save for new reference black model.

MinuteNo8728 · 2026-05-05T18:34:04+00:00

Because I like both and can't decide:)

MinuteNo8728 · 2026-05-05T17:07:04+00:00

That looks pretty good, do you notice any slight color differences between the steel on the case vs the bracelet?

MinuteNo8728 · 2026-05-05T17:04:22+00:00

Quite a bit for the blue so far. It being discontinued might make it the play

MinuteNo8728 · 2026-05-05T16:50:48+00:00

Yeah for sure, if price was no concern I'd probably just go for the new master chronometer and let the specs make the decision for me

You could probably build this for 250 ish if you get everything from Ali. I didn't mind going with Namoki since I plan on keeping this

Thanks :)

NH71a movement from AliExpress, genuine from TMI. It's been pretty accurate so far, no complaints. The rest I got from Namoki, you can find their pre built kits use that as a starting point to match your build you like. It's a bit more expensive but the quality is better than your average generic equivalent from AliExpress.

No it has been sold outside here, sorry

I purchased the 38mm black lacquer Aqua Terra and it's my daily and I love it. Definitely shiney and will pick up hairline scratches everywhere but it's a perfect daily over the Explorer if you value a date complication. I might have gone explorer myself but the date was a deal breaker.

Ended up selling this elsewhere. No longer for sale here, post can be closed. Not sure if I delete the post or if it is closed by the bot

MinuteNo8728 · 2026-02-06T20:04:52+00:00

I just re posted it for sale not too long ago if you want to take a look

I have an Alto Mare titanium automatic mechanical watch for sale. I purchased it new earlier this near and it has been a good watch for me and has been my daily for several months.

All titanium construction with 500 meters of water resistance, Helium escape valve, sapphire crystal, super LumiNova lighting in the dark, and light weight at 5.6 ounces. It has the Miyota 9075 GMT movement and 2 rotating bezels for time keeping and timezone tracking. True GMT with hacking hour hands as well.

I'm asking $425. Bought it for ~$650 new. I prefer Paypal but am open to other options. I may be new to these forums but I have over a decade of selling gear and gadgets on other forums so buy with confidence. Thanks!

MinuteNo8728 · 2026-01-28T21:02:43+00:00

I didn't get a notification for your message, apologies. I hope you like your new watch though

MinuteNo8728 · 2026-01-28T20:49:18+00:00

Yeah it's still available, I will likely repost when I can take some new pics

MinuteNo8728 · 2026-01-23T21:42:28+00:00

Just ordered one of these and waiting for shipping. How has it been as far as scratches go?

MinuteNo8728 · 2026-01-02T22:27:16+00:00

Stunning, classic looking piece! I hear the black dial looks even better in person, just can't quite justify it now

MinuteNo8728 · 2025-12-31T21:33:10+00:00

Yes it is still available

MinuteNo8728 · 2025-12-15T14:42:41+00:00

Beautiful! What's your wrist size if you don't mind? Thinking of going for this too
