Distinctive, Unique but FLAWED Watch from Berny?

Here's the review of the Berny AM135M 'Divers Helmet' watch. This one is definitely something unusual and certainly won't be for everyone.
Here's a link to the watch on AliExpress:

It has some of the T-Rex, but it is identical to the RENATO BEAST. Same case top and bottom + bracelet style.

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

Yeah you're right. Thanks for letting me know about that.

[@michaelj8793]

Yea I own a half dozen of Renatos timepieces and also have some limited edition Beasts with the signature diamond 8 trademark I believe he sold the company years ago Thanks for pointing this obvious Copy Be well my friend

[@rrich52806]

Not identical to Renato mike.

[@rrich52806]

Renato electric. Berny better.my opinon

[@danspanos]

Not my style, but you have to give them points for their imagination! Great review as always bro!

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

You certainly can't say that this isn't an original design can you?

[@Alwaysontime-dh1gz]

Hi , that's one of the best reviews I've seen on KZbin, You show and describe every aspect of this watch, articulate and very well put together with the camera. I'm a BERNY fan, have a smaller channel myself, however I have learnt a lot from your presentation, thank you so much and subscribed Happy new year Nick

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

That's very kind of you to say. Thank you. Happy New Year to you too.

[@Stricko72]

Side profile of the bracelet reminds me of a bike chain(chain links) cool looking watch

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

Yeah I can see that.

[@Organic_ape]

Watch case shape is identical to that of Oceanaut Pacha which was released many moons ago, so it's obviously a homage.

[@maljones.8737]

I like it.its good to see something different than the norm.logo and text .why. Great video Thanks james.

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

Yeah I'd get rid of the text you don't need it with the logo. Thanks 👍

[@ColoqueNombreAqui]

Excellent review, thanks. Is it possible to add nato straps or in your experience with this watch you found it difficult?

[@jaer.6540]

When i FIRST got into watches over a decade ago, i was ENAMORED with Renato watches. They were big, bold, and unique...like this one. They were basically classy Invictas

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

That's a good way of describing it.

[@jamesblonde2271]

Gotta say I respect them hitting the original design again, even their fliegers are their own thing, imho its a fugging 🥔 but good for them, theres some obvious quality there.

[@the_once-and-future_king.]

I...actually rather like it. The orange is a bit in-your-face, but overall I'd rock this chonker.

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

It's a surprising piece isn't it? I wasn't sure about it when I first got it. It's one that grows on you though. If you aren't keen on the orange, they have lots of other colour options too.

[@holtmoore5313]

Thanks to your review I picked one of these up. Nice to see a larger watch reviewed.

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

I'm glad you liked it. Which colour did you go for?

[@holtmoore5313]

I went with the same color as in your review.

Good review, photography and editing 👍. This is definitely not my cup of tea, I should hate it, but strangely I don't.

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

Thank you very much mate. I know exactly you mean 😆

[@JasonTheWatchGuy]

I still can't decide how I feel about this one! It's weird which for me is usually good...but is it too weird?

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

It's not like another else I've reviewed on the channel.

[@osrsseinfeld]

Just ordered using your affiliate link. Likely too big for my wrist but this will be the most interesting watch I own by far. Great review!

Just got my Helmets in. I like them. I just wanted the black face but ordered the yellow face by mistake. So, I got 2 for only $97.00 USD each. I like the looks. Still have two $ 25 cheap LIGE mechanicals in green incoming. One is a gift... be interesting. THAT WILL BE # 12 WATCHES 2023 ADDED TO MY RATHER LARGE 71 YR LIFETIME COLLECTION OF WATCHES. . pd THE BERNY emblem engraving IS OPPOSITE THE SIDE of the stem. IVE GOT a few 1000m dive watches that are more massive than this. PS I have 8 inch wrists. The band reminds me of my 1980 Explorer 2. Perfect fit and I do not need to pull links. Very satisfied.

Renato Revival!

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

Yeah I guess it is in a way.
