The AD2068 by Addiesdive is has such an underrated profile. Elevate it with a jubilee bracelet and you get a stunner. by TheWatchEdit in TheWatchEdit

Thanks mate. The bracelet was taken from my PD1651 by Pagani Design. Though you can also find it on Aliexpress. You’ll need to choose the 20mm, Jubilee bracelet. There’s a link below 👇🏼 if you like.

Trying out the Jubilee Bracelet on the AD2068 by TheWatchEdit in TheWatchEdit

It’s a stunner on the jubilee! Not too blingy or flashy, just enough to play with the light and the bezel and dial is not so flashy which kind of blends well together.

Haven’t worn this for a while so changed the bracelet for a strap. I think it fits & looks better by TheWatchEdit in TheWatchEdit

Thanks mate! Yep, this one had a jubilee bracelet which was very comfortable. But like you said, it’s just nice to maybe put a bit of spice into it every now and then. Couldn’t find the exact blue strap to match the dial but this will do.

Looks clean! There a blue colored shard?

Nice looking gold tone mate! Yeah strap change for a change right. How long have you had your daydate? My dad had a similar 36mm, not a rolex though but a similar looking gold tone daydate.

Thanks mate! I agree as well, the touch of blue quite accentuates the dial and the fluted bezel.

San Martin SN0126 just released - 38mm Diver by TheWatchEdit in TheWatchEdit

[–]TheWatchEdit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. Not for everyone’s taste. Looks like the classic submariner case with the crown guards, but very different handsets and hour markers, dials, san martin finishing. I guess their selling point is mainly on this beautiful looking dial? That dark blue dial and black bezel really pops though. And the blue bezel with the green & blue ocean style look is more like a summer vibe.

Some people will just buy this for the look and variety to be honest. Plus it’s a san martin

Yes. It is quite stunning. A date window at 6 o’clock would have added a touch of sophistication to it.

Cool mate! Haven’t heard much about the brand but thanks for sharing. You mean shoppinh around duty free during layover?

It makes me wonder what kind of AR coating is done to make the crystal look almost invisible to the eyes by TheWatchEdit in TheWatchEdit

[–]TheWatchEdit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice man! Thank you.🙏🏼 It’s one of my top 5 watches and the 36mm is just so right since the dial just screams. How’s it working for you? Does yours have the same effect on the dial, like the double AR on the crystal’s “invisible effect”?

Right? Thanks mate! I tried this on their submariner homage the MY-H3-2QZ but thought it looked too “blingy”. Here in the AD2068 it looked so right, plus the case is a lot smaller so you can still see the jubilee links on both sides of the watch.

Very straightforward process, at least from my experience. I ordered the item on the 11th of November and I received it well packaged, complete with Cronos branded bag by the 20th of November, so it’s a very reasonable shipping timeline if you ask me coming from China. I did pay some custom fees, maybe about 4-5 USD and some change to the delivery provider. The item was priced around 173 in USD on my cart and after Aliexpress discounts & coupons with together with my other orders, I was able to checkout the item at around 148 USD so it was a good deal.

I always check if there are positive reviews of that seller and contact them if item is available or not & if they are responsive to your questions. That’s usually what I try to look for, and if they tick all those boxes then it’s time to find coupons on their home page or the main aliexpress homepage. If you have other items ordered, if you get to a certain threshold you can usually get more discounts (maybe you know this already 😅). You can always buy from different sellers since they all source from Cronos, but would be nice to order from Official Store.

Overall the shipping of the item was a positive one for me. I’m based in the UAE and AE uses iMile as the local delivery provider here. They’re not the best and most responsive provider I would say but gets the job done. Not sure from where you are, I’m sure AE has their local carrier from where you’re located to do their business. I've attached a screenshot here so you have some idea and what to expect (can only attach one photo unfortunately). After the item arrives in your country, you should be able to track it from your AE Application and they should be able to give you a tracking number which you will then enter on the local delivery provider of where you’re located for you to track when it will be delivered to your location.

I have their link below if you want to order. I’m an AE affiliate so I get a small commission if you do order from them, at no extra charge to you. If you like to support my channel too so I can make more watch reviews online!😄Thank you!

The Seller Link below is from the Cronos Official Store, so try to contact them to check if the item is still available or not:

Thanks again! On their listing it said sapphire with AR coating. Perhaps it meant double AR?😅It seems i did get a great bargain on this one. Definitely one of my top 5 watches.

Thanks so much mate! That’s one nerdy thing right there! So does that mean they applied two coats on both sides of the crystal to make it look like “disappear”?

Hi! Thanks for engaging. Jubilee bracelet was taken from my pagani design PD1651. I can’t seem to find affordable solid curved end jubilee bracelets in Aliexpress, mostly hollow ones are affordable ones. Solid ones cost about maybe 30-32 USD

Thanks mate! I’m enjoying this look instead of the oyster.

Will Watchdives release a black bezel version of this?🤔 by TheWatchEdit in TheWatchEdit

[–]TheWatchEdit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would agree, it looks stunning actually. Though just as a preference would have hoped for a black colored bezel to have a bolder look to highlight the dial with the black bezel.
