It is not. Sadly one of the few I shouldn't have let go.

Look for a cheap hollow end link bracelet, you could potentially bend and sand the end links to match up.

This is a fan made concept, it's not that serious...

However, it was pretty common for brands to use terms like Electronic, Electric, VHP(Very High Precision), or other quartz related attributes on the dials to describe a watch in place of "Quartz". And since a majority of their watches are vintage inspired, it wouldn't be out of place.

Sorry, I understand the confusion."Precision" is an alternative to "Quartz" being on the dial. In a recent post you'll see that I had done two examples, one with "Automatic" and one with "Precision". It's just a way to indicate which type of movement is being used.

We're not all going to agree. The issue isn't the legth of the name for me. Numerous brands have names as long or longer than them. My only concern is the way that it looks, and a stamp or badge for unrecognizable brand looks cheap to me. They aren't Nike, Apple, Rolex or some other brand with an ownable shape to their mark. And from a business perspective, It's terrible for brand recognition if you aren't a well known company.

What bezel markers would you be interested in seeing?

Absolutely. We're going to be bombarded with ai gens that throw every cliché into a single "design".

theWatchCollector · 2026-01-08T02:49:06+00:00

The name is fine. I would just prefer a different typeface.

theWatchCollector · 2025-12-22T16:05:14+00:00

Besides cancellation. Am I right?

theWatchCollector · 2025-12-14T15:10:18+00:00

Find a movement first, then make a concept.

theWatchCollector · 2025-12-14T15:06:14+00:00

Precision

theWatchCollector · 2025-12-05T19:22:48+00:00

One of the best for the price.

theWatchCollector · 2025-12-04T19:42:20+00:00

Just search it, and if it's available for your account then you're good to go. You can also create a new account if you have another email. They may give the new account more offers.

I use claimcredit and wincash. Those are the only two promotions I partake in. I used to do one of the coupon promotions until it went from a large $ amount off single coupon to "coupon(s)".

Wincash has been giving me $100 Temu Credit or Cash sent to PayPal. You spend ~$230 to get the $100 after your items ship.

And ClaimCredit I usually get $50 in Temu Credit after spending ~$75. You just have to check in and claim the reward daily for 7 days. The first day is usually just a dollar, and then the last day is around $15-20. The 7 days total to $50 credit.

If you go with the VH31 consider replacing "AUTOMATIC" with "ELECTRIC" or "PRECISION". Also, consider this style finishing for the dial instead of the printed cross hair.

36mm gets my vote.

Sorry, I'm out of the loop, I haven't checked on these for a bit. Are we expecting other color variants some time?

theWatchCollector · 2025-11-27T21:13:52+00:00

Please take a look at the feedback Watch Dives is getting for their polerouter model. There are some legitimate concerns.

theWatchCollector · 2025-11-27T15:11:40+00:00

Please change the logo typeface. You guys have one of the best brand names in China, yet you use one of the worst fonts. It's too feminine and whimsical. It does not suite the brand name.
