Revelation or Rubbish? The OBLVLO Interstellar Starship! - Perth WAtch

[@sarahirvin5257]

Mine just arrived and I absolutely love it.

[@PerthWAtch]

Nice!

[@manuelgarza2990]

Mine became a treasure so far...No one is making watches this level for the price!

[@PerthWAtch]

Yeah fair point - hopefully it keeps working!

[@andrewd7586]

Well Ivan I was onboard until the shake, rattle & self destruct!😵‍💫🤣 Pity. It’s the kind of watch that appeals to me. I bought the CIGA titanium Edge a couple of months ago & love it! But this domed watch has potential, but only if the manufacturers back it!👎🏼😊

[@PerthWAtch]

Yeah it’s a real pity indeed - that dome is gorgeous and unlike anything I’ve ever seen!

[@WATCHingJames]

Wow. That is awesome. I might have to get one in next months sale. But it is disappointing to see the issues with it.

[@PerthWAtch]

All the best mate - I haven’t checked buyer reviews about whether this is common…

[@robwilkins475]

I've had one for a few months and really like it , nice addition to my watch collection, I haven't time graphed it but it seems ok - reliable miyota movement

[@PerthWAtch]

You got an ok one then… not like the trash I did

[@sivanstar]

i know this video was uploaded from a few months ago. but i had the same issue. i opened up the watch, removed the bridge, seconds wheel and minutes wheel. theres a screw holding the hour wheel and i simply tightened it back. aliexpress refunded me 40$ so all is good. i love mine.. :)

[@PerthWAtch]

Thanks for sharing that - it’s great that you managed to fix it yourself but the vast majority of people wouldn’t be able to.

[@shamelessplace11]

Reminds me of the Corum bubble. I have a bubble skeleton. Ann it is the most comfortable watch I have ever had at any price

[@PerthWAtch]

That Corum is an interesting watch! Thanks for sharing :)

[@cesarmonteirobrasil]

Hi friend. Beautiful watch! However I noticed that the hour hand is not synchronized with the second hand. What happened?

[@PerthWAtch]

That’s because there is no second hand 🤣

[@FullJikama]

only minutes no seconds in there

[@fouzanharoon9200]

Hey is it still working ? And is the movement reliable how long can it run without servicing ?

[@PerthWAtch]

It is working. Hopefully it runs forever. Servicing is overrated.

[@fouzanharoon9200]

@@PerthWAtch which movement does it have ?

[@PerthWAtch]

Can’t remember - see video 😂

[@fouzanharoon9200]

@PerthWAtch I don't think so that you mentioned the movement in the video can you tell me ?

[@PerthWAtch]

I think I did - see video again

[@dude28405]

I guess you need one oddball in a collection I guess this one would suit the bill. It’s interesting, but scary at the same time.

[@PerthWAtch]

Hahahaha 😂

[@deviklovecraft3835]

They make a wandering hour watch now for under $ 250 ! An urwerk for $ 250 😂

[@PerthWAtch]

Haha that is rather amazing!

[@karyldavidkidd7111]

I dig all of the interesting watches you review bud. Even if they're not to my taste, I completely understand why people will like them. This one is nifty cool. Be well!

[@PerthWAtch]

Thanks for that mate 👍

[@Splash111]

Kinda cool...but not my style. I'm very utilitarian leaning....lol.., but there are watch styles for everyone! Nice review as usual!

[@PerthWAtch]

Thank you - I understand

[@philspencelayh5464]

Definitely not time at a glance. The thing I noticed straight off was that the hour and minute hands don't line up. Didn't realise the hours just rotate randomly. Doesn't look great, doesn't tell the time but that shape means it might work as a door stop.

[@PerthWAtch]

Hahaha yes that’s not how it’s supposed to be

[@shamelessplace11]

Not to be rude man, but if you can’t glance at this watch until the time you need to stick to two handed time X watches this is pretty simple pretty easy number two. The reason that the hands don’t line up is because as he’s turning the minute hand remember once the clock hits 12 and it starts to move to the second or third minute the hour is gonna start moving anyway, so I think that’s what you saw. As far as him shaking it and moving the our hands that’s a finishing issue. It’s not tight. That’s the problem. They haven’t seated it down and put a locking material under the screw almost like a Loctite.

[@BryanO92]

An interesting piece, for sure (and a surprisingly quality strap). Yeah, some of these mushroom brands don't seem to be interested in standing behind their products, funny how that works. Given China's reputation for QC or lack thereof, you would think a manufacturer who went to this much trouble to make a unique and interesting watch might want to provide the customer service to support it. You seem to be shopping for your review watches instead of reviewing promotional pieces, so you're seeing the real buyer's experience more than some other channels, which shoppers need to be reminded of, let's face it.

[@PerthWAtch]

Ah yes very good point about real buying experience vs the artificial experience of a reviewer! I do review collaboration pieces too, and yes, you don’t get to comment on the customer service aspect when you do that.

[@okanbayindir8963]

How long does it glow in dark? Could you suggest me as lover of luminous watch?

[@PerthWAtch]

Can’t remember - what did I say in the video?

[@okanbayindir8963]

​@@PerthWAtchYou said it doesn't glow brightly and long time.I wondered how long it glowed. 5 minutes?

[@PerthWAtch]

These things decay in half lives, maybe you don’t realise that… but if you mean usefully, probably still over half hour.

[@okanbayindir8963]

@@PerthWAtch I got it👍 Thank you so much🙏

[@ayudaporfavor]

Have you reviewed anything else from the brand?

[@PerthWAtch]

Don’t think so - did you search?

[@alexsdg3441]

Wow.... I was wondering why the time keeping is so off until you told me the hour ring is broken, ha ha ha. Honestly, it is a great concept and very interesting design work. However, just like almost everything else from China side, very poorly executed and I can just see that it won't last for a long time. Again, super interesting design with typical China quality. Also whoever came up with the name, OBLVLO, got to be shipped out into interstellar and never come back. Thanks for the review, Ivan. good day to you.

[@PerthWAtch]

Hahaha yeah - although the best of the best for me remains CRESTICLE followed by that piece of FEICE! It’s a pity this wasn’t done well… brands like Olto-8 and Atowak have managed tricky mechanisms without it falling apart in my hands.

[@alexsdg3441]

@@PerthWAtch I beg to differ. ha ha. at least Cresticle & Feice have their own "identities" how smelly & shitty they are, ha ha. But OBLVLO? It does not even have any meaning what so ever... ha ha

[@PerthWAtch]

Hahaha fair point mate! If I were to guess I thought “OBLIVION” was the most likely reference… but no one knows!

[@alexsdg3441]

@@PerthWAtch Yup. unless they really shape up on QC, yes, the watch company will go into a deep Oblivion for sure.

[@andrewd7586]

I beg to differ. I have quite a number of Chinese manufactured watches & had only one QC issue, which was addressed quite quickly from that particular company.

[@moneymikz]

Has you or anyone reviewed their Joker?? That one intrigues me

[@PerthWAtch]

I haven’t

[@marillatjosue6018]

Yeah i have

[@digitalkmultimedia]

You didn't cover that it glows?

[@PerthWAtch]

Yes I did - please watch the video to find the answer to this question 😂

[@manuelgarza2990]

It is a homage from another Chinese brand BEHRENS, but not really similar.

[@PerthWAtch]

Interesting - maybe BEHRENS copied these guys and want to charge $2300!?

[@damianlopez4893]

Interesante que siendo un reloj nuevo ya venga la maquinaria rota ,nadie se ha dado cuenta de que no marca bien la hora que es , la manecilla de las horas no va acorde con los minutos y además durante el mismo video ha dado dos saltos la manecilla de las horas ,me encanta el reloj pero al ver eso puff ya no se que hacer la verdad

[@PerthWAtch]

[@damianlopez4893]

@@PerthWAtch The watch does not keep the time correctly, when you turn the crown it does not keep the hours correctly

[@PerthWAtch]

Yes, that is what I said

[@brianmccord7387]

What would the significance of the number 88 be for Chinese people?

[@PerthWAtch]

“8” in Chinese sounds like “prosper” or “fortune”. Chinese generally like the number 8.

[@rolandsv8]

HMM- 1) BRAND NAME - what on earth is that?????? 2) "interstellar" and "starship" are actually synonyms, so does not make any sense to use both in model name 3) opinions may vary, but i think design is clumsy and unattractive, domed crystal- too odd To summarise- i dont like it at all. Atowak wins hands down

[@PerthWAtch]

Haha yes… not quite synonyms actually but point taken: it implies the same thing. This is certainly not a piece designed for broad appeal!
