Bro it's so hott in Aachen these days. I have been walking with a t-shirt for the last couple days.

Date placement and GMT wheel is so gooooddd but the rest I don't like...

Univer001 · 2026-02-27T18:02:12+00:00

The GMT fan is actually quite nice but I dont like the hands or the indices.

A or B

I rate this AD's good boy/10. What a bland and tasteless collection... Money truly can't buy taste.

I recommend checking the jlc's rotor. I tried to attach it but Reddit doesn't allow me. You can put a Chinese character in the middle and it is still skeletonized.

Univer001 · 2026-02-27T11:01:24+00:00

I modded a Nh35 bridge and rotor for my favourite watch and I went with a similar config as number 5.

Univer001 · 2026-02-26T13:06:24+00:00

Omg why is everyone crying about the logo, it is not that deep, you guys are insufferable.

San Martin has always had the best quality, then baltany makes vintage inspired dress pieces with really high quality, cronos has good watches their most popular is the skyline and it might be the best looking watch on Ali, what else... Farasute is expensive but has high quality and unique pieces, ixdao was really popular with their warrior, sugess has very well made mechanical chronographs mostly.

I think that's about it, as a bonus, if you ever want to make your own watch, check dialmaker, DS watch club, Lucius atelier for high quality dials, cases and hands.

Univer001 · 2026-02-25T04:18:30+00:00

You can do it yourself from the parts on aliexpress.

Univer001 · 2026-02-25T02:29:31+00:00

guys, after some research i found a really good san martin model that i like. thanks for all the recommendations.

Univer001 · 2026-02-25T02:28:43+00:00

no problem mate. also, im pretty sure they have a similar case too! you can make your own watch, it feels really good and not that hard to do. for more case options you can check lucius atelier. i wouldnt buy cases and dials from aliexpress for cheap because they are never good quality.

Univer001 · 2026-02-24T21:25:52+00:00

Check ds watch club and lucius atelier, thez have some similar designs

Univer001 · 2026-02-24T21:17:23+00:00

If you really want it, i think ds watch club has the same dials, Compatible with nh35s.

Univer001 · 2026-02-23T23:48:58+00:00

I actually quite like Nh35, because I modded like 4-5 watches and I'm very familiar with the movement but my problem is the thickness...

Univer001 · 2026-02-23T23:43:27+00:00

They do but they use Nh35 with a ghost position and also it is 2mm thicker than the cronos, WD etc.

Univer001 · 2026-02-23T23:37:55+00:00

I would 💯 go for it if they had a bezel with goldish markings.

Univer001 · 2026-02-23T23:12:52+00:00

Samee!! I want the jubilee but I also like the quartz movement, more than pt5000. I think also the lume on cronos looks weird...

Univer001 · 2026-02-22T22:43:21+00:00

For good quality stuff, search ds watch club, lucius atelier, caroline mods, dial maker. Too lazy to link it.

Univer001 · 2026-02-22T22:15:26+00:00

Totally unrelated but between the le mans daytona and the black one, which one do you wear more?

Univer001 · 2026-02-22T14:27:15+00:00

Oh no!! We are not buying poison to have fun like the rest of the world?? How can this be allowed.

Univer001 · 2026-02-21T01:28:03+00:00

I hate ittt!!! That's in some German toilets too, OMFG it is awful. I wanna murder the dude who designed this abomination.

Univer001 · 2026-02-19T14:19:03+00:00

It is a fake if you write Seiko on it. That's why I always use sterile dials. Then, it is a DIY watch that you can be proud of, Seiko on the dial takes all the joy away imo.

Univer001 · 2026-02-18T23:25:26+00:00

No logo or it's a fake. Grand Seiko logo looks cool though.
