About 12 years ago I bought an IK Colouring skeleton automatic with three functional push button registers. It was under $20us. It wasn't too terrible. It was all stainless with a solid bracelet. Even had solid end links and milled clasp. I wore it a few times when I got it. Sadly, the crown was the only thing NOT stainless, and it turned brown. It also gained a couple minutes a day. But it did come in a spring loaded cardboard pillow box. It still worked when I threw it in the junk drawer.

[@cybrscot]

@Ray Han Really? Based on what? Or is this just your pro China opinion? (Han Dynasty)

[@cybrscot]

@Ray Han Bravo, bravo. That is a beautiful and eloquent answer. Thankfully I'm not a dull liberal nor even a sharp liberal. A liberal would never post what I posted. Clearly I'm on the other side. And your comments further support our concerns. Basically, you're admitting that our stupid government and companies got sucked into the promise of Chinese labor, and you not only reaped the financial rewards of being paid for the work you did, but your companies also stole the technology from our stupid liberal led western companies who were and mostly still are totally naive to what China is doing at night when the factory doors are locked. You are completely right. And please understand, I didn't hand them any economical means of power any more than you created the coronavirus. I did not agree to any of that, and unfortunately I am not in a position of power. As you can see here, I have tried to warn people, and many of them got angry at me. They want to buy that $15 Amazon watch with the double tap date complication. Based on what you said, they're not too bright, supporting and handing over their money to China. You are right about tech and phones. My question was regarding the watch examples and the Rolex claim. It's not about keeping accurate time. That's not why Rolex is #1. Many other watches from many places have kept accurate time for a very long time. I also know that many wealthy Chinese go to HK to buy Rolexes, sometimes 5 at one time. They want to own and wear that brand that they can now afford. They don't want to wear the $15 Chimazon watch. In the watch world, it has a lot to do with heritage as you know, history, and past innovation as well as creativity and craftsmanship. Although the Chinese watches can be good. They keep time and have some models that are very nice and excellent quality, it will take time to develop heritage Seagull seems to have some heritage and therefore is appreciated by the watch community. As someone who lives in Asia, I know first hand that creativity and craftsmanship don't usually thrive in Asia. Those are 2 areas that will take more time to develop. A lot of what makes a brand great took place in the past over many decades. Chinese brands will also have to go the distance for some time before they're considered "Rolex" quality by the market or watch enthusiasts.

[@cybrscot]

@Ray Han Yep. Correct. Some of them are here, thinking it's okay to buy this stuff. Education is everything and you're helping a lot.

How can anybody knowingly support China when there are other options. If you need a smartphone, and they're all from China, fine. But this Chinese watch junk? From a country that undermines the USA, withheld the DNA code of the coronavirus so researches were unable to help with fighting it. A country that welded doors shut and threw people into locked boxes to take them to quarantine. A country that is supported by CASH, that you and I send to it. You trust them? You buy this Chinese junk? Can you just stick with some Swiss pieces? Japanese made watches? Hong Kong? (and yes I know it's a part of China now technically) Americans every day say "I'd pay a little more if it were made in the USA". Well, ween yourself off this junk. These are cheap watches and are not worth your money. They are all throw away watches. Much as the TIMEX brand of years past was a throw away watch because of it's movement, these Chinese watches are throw away watches. It's better for the environment if you buy something that will last, it's better for natural resources, it's better for you wallet to spend money only once on a quality watch that will last. And, you're not going to offend anybody by buying a Swiss watch. Chinese? Come on man...

[@loganholmberg2295]

IMO the hardlex is most likely purchased under the table from a factory or re-purposed from a rejects bin. Seiko might say made in Japan but like every manufacturing company I've worked for it doesn't mean its entirely made in its country of origin. To get the made in trade mark most companies either just have to assemble it in its country of origin or farms out some of the parts for latter assembly cause only a percentage needs to be from its country of origin. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if it IS a Seiko movement it just lacks the latter polishing and stamping tooling for the "posh" bits.

[@H0kram]

I'm convinced as well that the watch comes out of a factory that produces Seiko watches and they just use the same stock to produce both '' no name '' and Seiko's. This is very typical of China. For example this is 100% the case for the clothing and sunglasses / glasses companies : multiple brands order from the same factory, which uses the same materials, and the retail price will vary from 1 to 20 or more. Sometimes the quality control can explain some of that price difference, sometimes the QC is 100% the same no matter the price ( that's for example the case with Ray ban ).

[@loganholmberg2295]

@@H0kram Yeah it totally explains the rough unfinished look of the internals. Its either an internal separate assembly line or their selling parts on the side to a Chinese manufacturer as they don't meet the quality control of the name brand company or just rough parts before polish and branding. I go for the latter because of the jankiness of the date complication. I ran into stuff like this allot when we were sourcing bolts and screws from China for the company I work for. It was messed up and shady AF so we like to avoid sourcing parts were SEA certs matter.

[@rickcroucher]

Fortunately, there are a few other watches available with blue dials. You should still be able to find one.

[@masondelpino8118]

To be fair, the date could have become misaligned because from the looks of it you didn't check whether the time was in the "danger zone" of adjusting the date. Doing so can break the automatic date change on the watch, or make it misaligned even

Bought a Chinese mechanical watch for about 20$ 10 years ago. The case unfortunately isn't made of steel so it became brown and slightly irritates my skin if I wear it for too long.

Thanks for this review! I am in the market for an automatic. In the video, it looks very nice. However, it is hard to evaluate unless I have it right in my hand and look at it that way. the old axiom that you get what you pay for certainly applies here. It seems nice for the price. While I have several watches with leather bands, I have learned that these are problematic and do not last long. My Rolex Cellini (actually won this in a raffle at Jared Jewelers that was a children's home fundraiser) is a case in point-every time I change the leather band it costs about $250. Anyway, I think it is better to have a metal bracelet. I think I will get the basic Oyster Perpetual (pricey!) or another brand, but we will see if I settle for one that is a few hundred dollars. This review also points out some important things to look for. Thanks again!

the price for an automatic hacking watch is incredibly affordable. i would worry about longevity. for my camping needs i would use that money and buy a casio f 91-w. i know its digital vs mechanical. but i'd have a great reliable watch and still have money left over for chicken nuggets :) i really enjoyed this episode. great work!

I think hardlex is just a "synonym" for mineral crystal in Chinese watch vocabulary. It's used extensively in watch specs for example in AliExpress. But they shouldn't really use the term hardlex as it's a Seiko proprietary.

The chapter ring is the track with minutes/seconds indicators. You meant the rehaut.

[@metallicarchaea1820]

I kinda want one now. 😂

[@coyhutt8022]

Had a look around and I can’t find any Ik watch which anywhere near approximates this price , so maybe it’s simply been mis-priced and they have pulled it or this one supplier got a batch with QC issues and is banging them out accordingly.

What are good cheap Chinese watches with alot of space inside so I can use it for projects.

Does it come with a free bottle of hand sanitizer liquid and a face mask?

"the only U we need is the U in USA"

[@HonestWatchReviewsHWR]

Why did they bother with a display case back?

[@Lorne97]

The movement is a seagull st16, for that price it's totally fine

[@trevoursamudacollections5796]

Wrist candy watch club has had a ton of their nato straps sold out for almost 2 months. What's the deal, I love their natos too.
