I’ve bought many other alli watch brands and Cadisen delivers rock solid quality every time. My aqua racer homage is incredibly rugged and I’ve worn it diving, underwater hull cleaning…etc. not a single problem. By comparison; I was wearing a pagani design chronograph last week when the crystal just fell off and shattered on the asphalt. Didn’t hit it on anything…it just sled off. Cadisen is my Alli brand of choice.

Stick around I have more videos on them on the way, quite controversial but in a good way!

Cadisen make very good watches and have been getting better, they have an orange dial Seiko 5 homage, and I'm just waiting for them to make a GMT version. Steeldive have one already but the quality of the dial and hands is nowhere near the Cadisen, so praying for them to make a range of them with the NH34. Excellent video !

Good review of a very nice watch, thank you. This thing as you say is a real GADA especially with the screw down crown and 100m WR, sapphire and NH35 are a bonus as well. I will be picking one up for sure.

[@ahmeto.513]

Thank you very much for the review. I was thinking of buying this watch but hadn't made up my mind yet. After i watched your review, i came to a conclusion that this watch is very nice but a little big for me. Thanks again for the close up review:)

[@WatcheswithGeorge]

Heya! Thanks again for the comment and support. Like I said to someone else with the blame question. It's on the larger side of 40!

[@timefliesby-jleo474]

Thanks for the review I was looking forward to this one!

[@WatcheswithGeorge]

No problem at all.. I hope you enjoyed it!

[@lew9223]

Lovely looking watch, that dial is nice. I have several Cadisen watches and I enjoy them, great value for money. Thanks

[@HolyCancer007]

I actually own the watch and the main fault of the watch for me is the bracelet. I swapped the bracelet with my pagani design pd1701 and it fits perfectly and greatly improves the look of the watch.

[@WatcheswithGeorge]

Heya! Thanks again for the comment and support. I have to agree with you in this one, but again, you can't have it all especially at 89 dollars!

[@700horses]

Btw… The “h” in “homage” is silent… It’s pronounced “oh-mage”

[@ricardonercolini6053]

Greetings from Brazil! Mine is at the post office. I hope the bracelet fits me right. When it cames I'll tell you. I am thinking to put in a light brown strap, or maybie a black one. What do you think? Thanks and Sorry If I made any mistakes in my english.

[@WatcheswithGeorge]

Hey there. Thanks for the comment and support. Don't be apologizing for the mistakes, this is a safe space Yes I agree the brown does suit it. Unfortunately the bracelet is the only thing that lets it down, but we love it anyway!

[@lucasmarquezi5233]

Looks way bigger than 40mm

[@WatcheswithGeorge]

Hi Lucas.. I'd say it looks on the higher end of 40, if that makes any sense! But definitely not much more than that !

[@edfay7]

I actually own it and the only thing I don't like is the hands & bracelet dont match the GS. It is really good for the price point if you can ignore the shortcomings and appreciate it for enthusiasts wanting to get a piece or feel of the GS platform before or without violating ones marriage.😅

[@soaremicheledavid6020]

George, ce parere ai despre Chameri ?

[@WatcheswithGeorge]

Salutare. Din cate vad eu arata foarte asemănător cu "Escapement time" sau mai bine zis just a different logo. Eu am varianta de la Escapement time de ceva vreme chiar și sunt foarte mulțumit. Great bang for buck, mai ales că ai VH 31 că și mecanism produs de Seiko. Adică după mine astea sunt. No brainer mai ales la cat costa! Mersi mult pentru comment

[@TjinChatterpal]

These Chinese watches have gotten very expensive these past few years

[@WatcheswithGeorge]

I agree with that.. which makes this an even sweeter deal!

[@kgosiking4228]

somethin wrapped around the hand sounds perverted ? lol , no it doesnt , you need to stop watching corn my brother

[@Ex.zed.]

[@WatcheswithGeorge]
