A Beautiful Dial for Under $70 [ Addiesdive AD2029 ]

[@ArA12459]

The script logo and 11 mm thickness with VH31 would be perfect. What a beautiful dial!

[@Unwoken_European]

San Martin got into 10mm thickness with miyota 9015. Just wait for the white dial.

[@ljuhan2]

@@Unwoken_European which model are you talking about?

[@bartok75]

Beautiful watch. Would be interested if it weren't for the the thickness and the logo.

[@davidmayer5582]

You might like the AD2026 with white dial, has a scripted logo instead of the dive logo. It’s fairly thin and under $70 usd

[@bartok75]

@@davidmayer5582 Unfortunately that one is too small at 36mm and it has no date.

[@noot_2]

Honestly, I dont mind the logo but the name Addiesdive being there is just mehhhh

[@adk7962]

This watch is incredible. Base G Shock money. This could literally be an inexpensive one watch collection. Thanks for the great review!

[@TomasWatchReviews]

This size looks great on your wrist. Nice watch.

[@EscapeWheel]

@@TomasWatchReviews thanks Tomas!

"Hellouu you tube people"

[@danspanos]

The dial reminds me of the Seiko Sarb. I wish they would have gone with the VK61 to keep it thinner, and PLEASE get rid of that stupid logo on a dress watch, and use the cursive Addisdive instead! I totally agree with you about that Steve! It ruins the watch for me. Great review as always my friend!

[@rev.waynet.oleary7387]

For the money, it really won't get better than that! Great review thank you. Classy looking watch. Good basic workhorse movement. Great...

[@aronchas]

Beautiful watch. At least they got rid of the "deepseahunter" nonsense. This one fits you very well Stevie. It is a strap monster. Im going to order one

[@the_9ent]

It’s very well finished for the price. Addiesdive have been killing it. Ali watch brand of the year IMO.

[@PoRRasturvaT]

I wish more of those brands to do like San Martin and start proposing models with Miyota sweet slimness, even if at a premium because I just can't deal anymore with NH35 thickness. those watches definitely look good if not looked from the side.

[@bensynewsshoedown4999]

Addiesdive are own-model recycling champs! A slimmer, GS case might work on MANY existing/yodate AD dials. Nice strap show!

[@aleksandrorlov1515]

Thank you for your video. I have expensive watches but I keep an eye on interesting cheap watches with Japanese movements. I liked that red wrist watch band with these white dial watch combination. What is the name of that red watch band?

[@bfair6284]

At this price, even only for the head is incredible. I wouldn't even consider the bracelet is included. 😁 Will always pair them with a decent strap to look complete. 😊

[@EscapeWheel]

@@bfair6284 very true

[@nedflanders3769]

Very nice dial… except for that silly logo!😅

[@jaer.6540]

Imagine this with a quartz movement and 2mm thinner. Also i get keeping costs down, but would gladly pay an extra amount for sapphire on these.

[@thebricktop429]

holy shit I thought they got the message about the logo

[@gabelov]

Hi Steve, I really appreciate the strap switching for all your reviews. It's cool. Though in that case the case is too thick to switch unfortunately imo. They need a V2 thinner and closer to 38mm. Maybe a president bracelet would be an interesting try.

[@EscapeWheel]

I still think straps are the way to go on this one. But I'm glad to hear you appreciate the strap shows

[@DavidCollado87]

Beautiful watch but shame about the logo. I hope they make a new version with the name in italics. I will buy it.

[@modestas6544]

It gives seiko sarb033 vibes, i think im going to get this watch

[@EscapeWheel]

@@modestas6544 yeah, definitely does

[@TXLogic]

Cronos is *definitely* still making the watch on your wrist - it’s called the Vintage Pilot. Available on the Cronos website. Please review!

[@EscapeWheel]

@@TXLogic still selling it is different than still making it...but I will definitely consider reviewing it now. 👍. Thanks for the heads up. Thanks for watching!

[@TXLogic]

@@EscapeWheel Good point!

[@khonjel_singh]

Is this your answer for my question last time lol? Beautiful watch I agree. Perfect for dressy occasions. I don't trust if the indices would survive the shipping from china though.

[@EscapeWheel]

@@khonjel_singh lol, definitely could be. I honestly wouldn't worry about the shipping. Just don't drop it on the floor and it'll be OK. It's those hard and abrupt stops that break the indices off. It's well packed in a foam protected hard case.

[@rayndown]

New Watchdives speedmaster version just released... You know what that means 😉

[@probablynothing5465]

Logo mismatch strikes again. They really need to get their design language right and they're all set to keep releasing near perfect watches

[@frantisekdikacz5590]

I am extremely waiting for WD0005 review, hurry up!

[@aLzkicks_efootball]

Which one looks better? Black or white? I'm very confused. Both look equally beautiful to me

[@EscapeWheel]

@@aLzkicks_efootball it's a SARB033 vs 035 deal. Probably can't go wrong with either

[@musik4u343]

See this one they should have done with the cursive logo and maybe make it thinner

[@tonyrome655]

JIts a nice looking watch. Very SARBish, but that logo needs to go. Also, slim it down. Maybe use a Miyota movement.

[@bensynewsshoedown4999]

Question to all: On this dress watch, do you prefer tbe dive mask logo or script logo?

[@astrobusa]

Yeah... beautiful, elegant dial.... marred by that awful logo and chunky script. Very SARB-like. Thats a watch I'd buy except for the jarring branding. Nice review. Thanks

[@user-M.O.]

All good. Pity about the name. Maybe a logo only would be better.

[@seanhickling7340]

It's a beautiful watch but it's the first time I've had a real problem with the logo. It looks wrong. I hate their generic script font logo so that wouldn't appeal to me. They need a complete major rebrand starting with the name.

[@WasniahDwipa]

Funnily enough, MAMACOO's replicas are perfect for people who can actually afford a luxury watch. Because in those social circles, it wouldn't matter and everybody would just assume it's real. You have a yacht and a beach house in Tuscany, of course that replica is real. There isn't a millionaire out there going around with a jeweller's loupe to scrutinize their acquaintance's watch. They'll just go "Oh is that a Patek? Nice, I should really get my hands on one of those, they look great."

[@eoon]

Very nice looking watch. Their branding though? I think they shot themselves in the foot with the "addiesdive" name. The logo and the name looks/sounds just stupid, especially on anything other than a diver clomage. The script logo isn't any better - generic font, too long, stupid name... They should really spin out a sub-brand with a name that better fits watches like this. Or rebrand altogether.

[@tonydilucente2342]

It would be so much better if the dial were sterile.

[@davidward5225]

Gotta get that dreadful logo off the dial
