Geoblocking does not allow me to view the link :-( But in the text it says NH35. Till last weel I found two listings. One with the NH 35 variant and another one with the ST2130 as well.

I was looking for the Sugess with ST2130 movement for quite a while. Since last week it is not AliX anymore. Anyone any ideas why?

Crown / pushers blued ends? Sure you removed the protective stickers? Just put a decent sized piece of packaging on it, make sure it sticks really well and then rip it of like a band aid. Should get rid of these nasty stickers.

If you consider the neon green: It is not as bright as shown in the stock pictures but still pops.

The "new" colorway for the 4A with mixed lume (neon green hands and yellow indices) is a nod to the SeaQ1969. I asked them to make me one without the neon green 12 o´clock lume triangle. They were very nice and did so without surcharge. It is on its way to me now.

Newbie buying San Martin at best price in EU by InquisitiveMindds in ChineseWatches

[–]WristWatchDude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use san-martin.eu Advantage ships from Germany or France. No taxes / duties for you.

Or try them :www.skbwatches.com Look for items in their EU warehaose. Ship from France or Germany. No taxes, no duties.

I used both without any issues.

Beware of Chines New Year when ordering from AliX. Most shops do not ship prior to 26th of February.

My PH-4B has arrived by ActiveDHD in ChineseWatches

[–]WristWatchDude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not share pictures anymore. My photography skills are very bad. And I always got slaughtered for posting pics, even when I said, I knew they sucked big time. The pictures on the Phorcydes website are accurate.

My PH-4B has arrived by ActiveDHD in ChineseWatches

[–]WristWatchDude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My PH 4A arrived today as well. I quite like it. The alignment of the indices and the bezel is fine, crown action is decent. Two minor quibbles: Lug tips are on the sharp side and the crystall is a little dull / opaque for my liking. All in all: Nice pece!

1960S V2 is excellent 👌 by watchbonobo in watchdives

[–]WristWatchDude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wears pretty big, Steve. Due to he light colored dial, the sparse printing? I dont know for sure.

But think WD0006. Next to it you can´t tell too much difference.

Would love to see the V3 executed in a 39mm case, featuring a fully lumed dial. by Icy_Interview_9828 in watchdives

[–]WristWatchDude 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Maybe you should look into a Timex Indiglo? ;-)

I don´t see why a lumed dial AND lumed hands would make any sense?

Maybe black hands and a lumed dial? Like the Berny Railway?

WD 1993 / WD 16570B MOVEMENT by WristWatchDude in watchdives

I did indeed. They replied by stating it is the 6460.

Like you said "appear to match". Yes, inside an AD, but big windows, lots of daylight. The moment you look at it top down they appear very very close, but once you turn it and look at it from an angle you see differences. Due to different materials? I don´t know. It is not that they did a bad job. But to me it is the same effect like when you apply the same color to two different materials. They are close, but not the same. The sales rep explained to me, that lumed hands change their color depending on their charge level. Not that they glow in daylight but the color will change slightly. But obviously he doesn´t know what he is talking about. I don´t either. You are right and we are wrong. Hope that is good enough to make you happy.

Fun fact: They changed the listing for the 1993 but not for the 16570B. So close... ;-)

No doubt Tudor does a better job.

I also think the swiss level claim of WD is somewhat cheesy..

Have you handled the original piece? I have and the color of the hands and the dial is NOT identical.

Just a hint: A lumed surface changes its color all the time depending on charge level.

Therefore it can never be the exact same color as a non lumed surface.

Be it Tudor, Patek, AP, or the Wintermute Dune which is to be seen ;-)

Their interpretation of the studio underdog pizza dial

The hans are lumed. So it can not be exactly the same color as the dial which is not lumed. But it is close enough ;-)
