Do you like microbrands?
@icek8922 жыл бұрын
Yes, i do! Thank you for honest review.

I love Microbrands now. They have taken over Seiko, Citizen and Orient's place in the watch world, when it comes to best bang-for-your-buck. Things like sapphire, and proper alignment are basically standard in all microbrands (especially in the price-range where these big companies leave out such features.

I'm not sure I understand calling out another company for copying this watch and not supporting that practice, when this watch itself is a copy of a GS watch (at least from the standpoint of general design cues). I haven't tried the Escapement Time or Chameri version yet, but I'm glad to see some GS designs ideas making it to affordable watches. I'm also not convinced that all other reviewers who recieve paid or discounted watches provide anything less than an honest review. However, they do have the advantage overall of experience with more than just a personal collection as they evaluate quality for price compared to a much larger segment of the market. I run into this issue in my own reviews and collecting. Even though I have far more watches than the average person does, a personal collection (vs having access to a continual source of watches) is a limiting factor in really guaging where a piece sits in the market. Just as you say you won't buy the Chameri....what would be more valueable is someone that has both and can express why the Escapement Time commands a higher price when they look similar on the surface and use the same movement on the inside.

Actually is Seiko King rip-off
@CKT1138 Жыл бұрын
It's based on the King Seiko general design but it's actually not based only on any one model. There are several unique decisions made for this watch, like having a blued second hand for example. Also, Seiko does not make KS watches with this visual style anymore, meaning this is about the closest you can get new. I don't think anyone should support Chameri because they are hurting the bottom line of a small, seemingly quite passionate micro brand, which is wrong. Fact is, ET was the ONLY one making this watch until another brand saw this watch blow up, and then decided to knock it off COMPLETELY.

EscapementTime and Chameri are NOT microbrands. They are both just brands invented for a factory. AFAIK they're probably THE SAME factory making a new revision of mostly THE SAME watch.

@roydoorenspleet15482 жыл бұрын
Lets be honest - someone took existing replica and put their brand name on it. Calling this a micro brand is slightly overstating things. This is perfectly normal in the watch world and has been for hundreds of years. And now they are selling at 3x the price they were before and someone else is buying from the same manufacturer and is selling for the old price..

Wow watch reviewers got a $90 watch for free to review, I'm sure they all decided to throw away their reputation so they can lie about how nice a chinese watch from aliexpress is. And after all that you ended up praising it just like everyone else, fascinating. Good thing you also mentioned how your only complaint, the size, is no longer an issue because there is a 35mm version available for sale. Oh wait you didn't.

@@mltain39 You probably aren't wrong though. OEM's make slight adjustments in design from time to time. the escapement time is likely a 2nd versions, while the chimari grabbed the V1 case for a slight discount. I have the Chimari in for review and can compare it to the smaller escapement time. I do think the Chimari is a great value, and so is the E.T. there IS a difference in quality between my 2 though, with the ET being ever so slightly nicer. it all comes down to the strap, and QC.

I would buy the Chimera over the Escapement Time because the name sounds like a name a legitimate company would use, while the Escapement Time name sounds like something you would find in a McDonald's happy meal or the prize in a box of Cracker Jacks.
