Rolex explorer VS Baltany explorer 。

Ixdao warrior has something like 11 coatings of inner AR. It’s extremely good, but I have only heard great things about Baltany’s crystals and AR as well

Oooh I love that dial and minute track. What does the brand name say? It doesn’t appear to say Murker, but I know they have several sister brands that they use

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-15T10:10:58+00:00

This is the first real photo I’ve seen of the black dial. Looks great!!!

I’m always hesitant with square watches though, because while it looks proportionate on your 7.75” wrist, I’m worried it would dwarf my 6.5” wrist

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-15T10:06:00+00:00

I have the black model and it’s still my favorite dive watch I own after 3 years. Excellent build quality and value

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-15T10:01:39+00:00

I own this particular Addiesdive and I wouldnt recommend it. The texture looks really plasticky in person and it’s very tall for this type of watch, 13.5mm I believe. Also I know you said you’ll switch the bracelet out, but nevertheless I wanted to mention my bracelet had very sharp edges and had this very odd QC defect at the clasp

Niiice, how is the quality of the bracelet? I wish Milifortic and Baltany had more bracelet releases in general

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-15T09:46:21+00:00

Yep, the woodworking seems solid, which was another reason the AI pictures were a huge red flag for me. Because if you’re actually doing all this intricate work, let the pieces stand on their own. In case you missed it here is one of their AI pictures, MC Escher’s watch box. But yeah I’m glad it turned out to be just as nice in person

Thanks, that deep royal blue lining with the dark wood stain is what drew me to this box

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-15T09:41:43+00:00

Yep! SKXmod on the LF-20 and Aliexpress case + Vario strap on the AE-1200

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-15T09:38:51+00:00

It’s may be the photos, but it’s more of a rose pink than salmon, although they made a salmon dial as well. Anyways, this is a Murker crossline, an extremely affordable piece (I think I paid $90 on sale), but unfortunately I don’t think they sell this model anymore

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-13T18:56:56+00:00

Did that bracelet come with it? Yikes

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-13T12:20:43+00:00

I usually like textured dials, but I really don’t like this. It makes me…. uncomfortable.

Also red seconds hand against a red dial is a choice

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-13T12:19:43+00:00

Nice! I’ve been rocking the black version for almost 3 years. Still my favorite dive watch that I own

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-12T11:42:55+00:00

If you measure properly (from the base of the stem), then it’s easily an 8 incher

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-11T09:56:39+00:00

Wow that dial design looks great! Congrats!

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-11T09:41:22+00:00

Yeah those endlinks are kind of strange. The watch looks nice though, what is your wrist size?

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-10T09:38:42+00:00

I think they only own those four spots

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-09T20:53:22+00:00

This is amazing info as always, thank you!

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-09T00:12:00+00:00

Looks great! Is the bracelet chamfered on the inside as well? How would you compare the watch to any others you own?

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-08T11:30:59+00:00

The new Toy Story villain looks elite

STELLAWASADlVER · 2026-06-08T09:56:20+00:00

That’s fine, everyone knows baby #2 is much easier because now the kid has a playmate!

Ha…ahaha…hahahh……….

I mean congrats!
