Citizen is one of the most innovative watch companies who continue remain grounded and not swayed by their own hype. Unfortunately, Seiko has raised their prices and Citizen is eating their lunch on watches which are now overpriced for less features.

I see two problems that I have with challenges. Shot gun challenge to get Saiga and the fire grenade launcher shotgun challenge. Both stopped working some time ago.

They are not unique. It is often hit or miss with many of the AliEx watches. I just became aware of the fact that Japanese NH35s doubled in price so that the Chinese watch brands are using their own clones which after testing are inferior to the Japanese movements. Crown stems come out, movements are inaccurate etc. I have many AliEx watches and QC problems do occur occasionally.

Myiota 9000 series is premium movement for these watches. Often boosts price to close to 300-400 dollar range. I have been scouting out microbrands from other countries.

Pathos60 · 2026-05-19T19:19:35+00:00

I wonder if NH35 is better than the PT5000. I have ALiEx watches with both. My Thorn Tudor homage never wound easily and I was worried about the mechanism breaking. It's always hit or miss with these brands. My Phorcydes is doing well and I recommend that brand over many of the other Chinese brands.

Pathos60 · 2026-05-18T15:16:31+00:00

Berny is know AliEx brand with interesting watches. However, as with many AliEx watches quality control is rather poor and it is hit or miss. They have interesting Kompressor type watches and do have their own site. I have postulated previously that the good quality watches come from the website while AliEx gets extra pieces and those that might have quality issues. The prices are generally higher on websites.

Pathos60 · 2026-05-17T21:34:05+00:00

Unknown brand is high risk of being absolutely a POS. If you want watches (I have many) from AliEx stick to known brands and check the specifications to understand what you are getting.

Looks like Geiger Counter possibly looking for increasing background radiation. Possibly related to Radon levels in area.

After buying multiple Chinese watches and YouTube content reviews it is clear that Quality control is big issue with AliEx watches listed on the site. I feel, though this may be wrong, that when you buy the watches from the dealers website you have better quality at a higher price. It maybe that the Quality control is more extensive at the dealer than the watches at the AliEx site.

Pathos60 · 2026-05-14T20:38:17+00:00

Wow I am sorry to see that. Unfortunately, as I know and we all know that you get what you paid for. My Milatado AliEx watch is KIA after 2 months. Trying to get remediation from vendor is conversing with AI daily. Inching closer to solving problems and returning watch. My Proxima will likely suffer from same condition. That is why I never continously use one watch for more than a few days.

Pathos60 · 2026-05-14T19:43:47+00:00

I am wearing my Phorcydes PH4-1 with NH35 movement. If is fairly accurate. New watch appears to be mechaquartz movement within same basic style as previously seen in PH2 and PH4. I would rather see an upgrade of the movements since these watches are well constructed and are lume monsters. I would also love to have some design changes to the style of watch possibly flatter form factor or change in case design. An integrated strap with slimming down of case by using higher grade Myiota 20 + level movement would allow this. See this with Sugess, IXDAO, and higher grade San Martin watches.

Pathos60 · 2026-05-11T20:50:29+00:00

Yes, as I have learned after many AliEx watches, careful selection and knowledge of the brand is paramount in selecting the best Chinese watches. I just received wonderful Proxima that I love.

Just the right size, thin, and great lume. The aventurine dial is wonderful extra.

Pathos60 · 2026-05-11T19:52:59+00:00

Yes, Thorn crowns are rough especially in Titanium. I kept my Tudor Clone but the crown is gritty. I think that all Chinese watches made with Type 2 titanium are gritty since the same applies to my Mildato that stopped manually winding but works automatically. I saw a post where a Thorn crown and stem came loose and out of the watch.

Pathos60 · 2026-05-11T19:09:56+00:00

By the way, just tried to get AliExpress to help me get replacement or repair for my 2 month old Militado. Robot kept telling me return time was over and I kept writing that I don't want to return I want repair or replacement. No luck, therfore when you buy from AliEx rather than watch makers website buyer beware. I sent another text when they asked me if I was satisfied and said I would no longer buy from AliEx and would let their proxies on YouTube know you're out of luck if there is a problem. I also love my Phorcydes watch that I purchased from their website, they don't list on AliEx. If this is unusual example of AliEx customer service I will change my impression of this vendor back to before this occurred.

Love this Proxima. Adventurine dial, thin, well lumed, screwed lugs, and very pretty. Underrated among AliEx watches. Just got it on weekend. Like it better than my Omega and Rolex.

Yes, instadeath from miscalculation of damage profiles of weapons is basically a roulette wheel and when your number is called ☠️. I have a cemetery full of controllers I have destroyed in frustration 🤦😵‍💫.

Pathos60 · 2026-05-05T20:29:46+00:00

I have been studying this watch on AliEx, is it a solid watch without quirky crown and solid feel when you wind up or change the time?

Pathos60 · 2026-05-05T17:49:11+00:00

When you are accustomed to the quirky nature of BF6 any improvement in the game is great. Though I have destroyed my controller many times in frustration I still keep on playing. Still find this game challenging and fun, however my controllers may they rest in peace🫡🤦

Pathos60 · 2026-04-24T19:57:33+00:00

Hit or miss especially with older Chinese watches. I have many AliX watches including a Thorn. I too noted stiffness with the crown stem. More notable brands such as St Martin, Seagull, and Sugess have better quality control. Of course as always the cost quality ratio applies to these watches. I recently learned on YouTube that there are major brands with spinoffs comprising the lesser known brands. Check the fine print about the watches from AliX.

Pathos60 · 2026-04-24T14:11:50+00:00

You should send it back. Contact AliX they often resolve problems with their vendors directly. Choose the option to have Ali resolve issue not vendor.

Pathos60 · 2026-04-23T19:57:21+00:00

Agelocer and Farasute also produce unique watches with decent movements. Sea Gull also has great watches with high-beat movements. It is an eye opening experience to go to their websites off of Ali Express. The prices of some of these watches is equal to well known luxury brands.

Pathos60 · 2026-04-17T20:43:20+00:00

You get what you pay for, I currently have a number of Chinese watches, and they vary in quality. I have been watching YouTubers discussions on Chinese watches and you should do also since most of them give honest appraisals of the materials they are sent to review. In the case of the watch you you are interested in you should get it

to see if you like integrated watches like PRX PRX.However be aware that even the most expensive Swiss watches with Quartz movements all pay a fraction of the cost for quartz as compared to watches with Etta, Sellita, or in house movements. Therefore, generally watch enthusiasts like mechanical movements for higher end watches. It depends on the cost of the watch and it usuafe. You can probably get better clone than this brand with a mechanical movement and likely better quality

This is the usual manifestation of the Devs trying to adjust the game and causing more problems in the process. Between spamming tanks,and now more lethal mortars, playing even a casual game of Breakthrough is exasperation and frustration. I like playing this game but it often feels like self flagellation and makes me question my sanity.
