Ten Shockingly Good Watches!

I’ve got the militado on the way, can’t wait to have it on wrist.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Enjoy! 😊

Great list, John! That first one definitely looks like it came right out of the 70's, so they definitely managed what they were going for! I'm not sure I could pull it off, but I appreciate it!

[@johnswatchjoint]

Cheers Dan. I haven't forgotten about your piece. Aiming to mail it on Monday 🙂

[@danspanos]

@@johnswatchjoint Thanks my friend. I appreciate you!

[@luist.1919]

Great selection! Addiesdive & Militado are making some great watches!

[@johnswatchjoint]

....Part 3 still to come too 😉

[@luist.1919]

[@BosunM8James]

I love that Daniel Gorman retro watch. It almost reminds me of the same kind of style the retro Casios are known for. Something that screams it's from the past but still incredibly stylish. Excellent watch reviews! Militado is one of my favorite brands and Baltany is just the king of premium military inspired watches on AliExpress.

[@Balistixs]

Great video again John, I like how you add in all the prices for the different regions! take care :)

[@johnswatchjoint]

I was having real issues doing that but Watching James helped me out! 🤗

[@Balistixs]

@@johnswatchjoint its awesome some of us really appreciate that information, its great to compare when these sales hit at 11/11

[@AlexanderB.]

My favourite from this compilation is the Proxima, followed by the Seestern.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Cheers Alexander. It gets more difficult the more watches you've handled. It's just impossible to please everyone 🙂

[@felo6035]

Great selection, John. You keep sharing many fantastic options. Well done, buddy 👏

[@johnswatchjoint]

Thanks Rafael. The best is yet to come in part 3. Have a great weekend my friend 🤗

[@felo6035]

​@johnswatchjoint Thank you buddy. You too.

[@79Hokie]

Excellent video as usual. Thank you for sharing!

[@johnswatchjoint]

Thanks for watching!

[@darrennoble8317]

Proxima aventurine purchased. Can't wait to see it in person. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Any time! 😊

[@deedee8568]

Militado also has a worthy coordinating strap, amazing.

[@adk7962]

Damn it. I usually don’t buy anything during the sale, but I still haven’t gotten that Seestern GS Homage (after waking you up in the middle of the damn night about it 😆) and it’s really tempting... I’ll patiently wait for Part 3 before I make any sort of decision. And Addiesdive is killing it lately. Wow!

[@johnswatchjoint]

AD really are!

[@matdog40]

The Seestern looks really nice. Thank you for your reviews.

[@johnswatchjoint]

I enjoy doing it thanks 🙏

[@peacelove1058]

Great video , thanks!

[@johnswatchjoint]

You are welcome! 🤗

[@E_D_43]

Great watches. I bought the Baltany D12 based on your earlier review and it hasn't disappointed - that sapphire is great. I love that Proxima case, I hope they keep trying different dials and I'll finally get one. 👍

[@johnswatchjoint]

We can all keep our fingers crossed 🤞 🙂

[@952651869]

Great Review As Always John!

[@johnswatchjoint]

Cheers Jason. Panic recorded it all today after two days of gremlins 😣

[@terrencecampbell9937]

There are so many great budget Aliexpress watches to choose from.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Alas it is impossible to go through them all. Unfortunately newbies are just creating lists hoping to get paid. You need to get info from real reviewers who actually handle these watches. It does get more difficult each year to pick for my subscribers. We all have our different tastes!

[@bensynewsshoedown4999]

Great to see QR tabs on the Proxima. A great choice, John.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Cheers my friend 🤗

[@ianallen448]

Lovely job as usual, I hope both the San martin and the militado are in the sale. One to attempt to scratch the omega itch the other to replace my work watch. Nice one John

[@johnswatchjoint]

Fingers crossed! 🤞

[@sergioteixeira]

Nice list. Love that Militado.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Thanks! 🙏

@johnswatchjoint Tyvm. Good luck for 13k 👊

[@r377-g8w]

Love the new cadisen are you going to get one in for review? I think white looks best. Neil from Adelaide

[@johnswatchjoint]

Hi Neil. It would have been nice of Cadisen to offer me one but I may get one in the sale 🤗

[@ladykoala208]

The SAN Martin or the Proxima are looking mighty good John!

[@johnswatchjoint]

Thank you. It's hard to please everyone with so many new releases just now 😊

[@richardpool9970]

John, do you know if the white and orange colourway of the SN0113W (in the link provided) is actually a version 2 or it only the white and blue colourway? Hard to tell as you can't see by a colour matched date wheel.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Hi Richard. The link I provided was for the black as it seemed to be the only V2 colourway left at that price there are other sellers with complete stocks at around £200. Compare the date wheels to see. You can always message the seller and ask too as I didn't look at the white version. Remember a V2 will have an OTF clasp and that's the confirmation 🤗

[@Stricko72]

Another great selection, thanks. Will say this last years big 11 11 sale was a disappointment price wise compared to the choice sale. Hopefully this years will be different. Cheers John.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Fingers crossed!

[@kevbooker9451]

Astonishing price for that militado, you would pay more for a takeaway 😮😮😮👍

[@carlad2640]

That Daniel Gorman is well nice.

[@johnswatchjoint]

A bit of a wild card 😉

[@aubsta1]

Very good list

[@johnswatchjoint]

Glad you enjoyed it ☺️

[@GarethRobertson45]

Great content as always john

[@johnswatchjoint]

🙏

[@xianreiss]

So so many watch reviewers, watch makers and lots of watches. Lots of watches, so hard to filter through and choose something. Thank you for your video.

[@johnswatchjoint]

My best advice. Watch more channels like this. From guys that actually handle the watches. There are too many new channels who haven't reviewed any of the watches they list as the best. It's dishonest at the very least, as they would not be able to tell you straight why they'd pick one watch over another. Don't rush. Pick what suits you 🤗

[@jerkojie]

Bought a Baltany 1921 a few weeks ago. Cracking good value.

[@johnswatchjoint]

They are awesome 👍

[@benjaminritter698]

I also like the look of the militado. ❤

[@grale78]

So many good options.

[@johnswatchjoint]

It's getting more difficult to choose after handling so many watches haha 😆

[@sivanstar]

For this sale im getting the Baltany with the bronze bezel.. Maybe another rectangelar watch ohh and btw John the Cadisen is a homage to Islanders skin diver (which i own and love) i dont mind that they copy the design but they could have made it better by adding diffrent colors or on the fly clasp..

[@johnswatchjoint]

I reviewed that Islander and loved it. I didn't want to cause any offence by mentioning its similarity as homages of microbrands can bring out the trolls!

[@dunderhay9169]

Some great watches there, I've just ordered that Militado, I missed it when they sold out earlier this year and I got a decent price offered by Choice so I just ordered it there and then. I rather like the new Addiesdive with the red/green dials. The Proxima looks good, but if I was to spend that much I think I would spend a little more on the new San Martin with the porcelain inspired dial.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Nice 🙂

[@ikarugamoo]

Ah man, that L2L on the Berny is a couple mm too big for me otherwise that was a no brainer. Lovely watch. Baltany, top notch at that price. If the sapphire crystal is anything like the chrono of theirs it’s top notch

[@johnswatchjoint]

I tried to bring in larger watches today as recently there have been so many smaller watches :)

[@rentresna440]

Addiesdive really cooking this year 🔥

[@johnswatchjoint]

They are the Sun 🌞

[@paulszabo-davie8936]

I can’t find SN0113 on the official store site. This Omega Homage is a good looking watch. Help ?

[@johnswatchjoint]

Just use my link provided

[@mattstolzman]

Sn0111 or Gilt Sn004 v2. What would you choose?

[@johnswatchjoint]

Sorry buddy only you know your choice. Go with your first instinct 😉

[@tpop3723]

Some decent choices this time.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Unfortunately there are hundreds of watches to choose from and It's just impossible to please everyone 🤕

Almost bought that cadisen but went with the c8220 instead £43all in cant wait to get it 👍

Got the 39mm version of the Baltany Dirty Dozen watch. Very nice can't fault it 👍

[@johnswatchjoint]

Nice 🙂

[@WatchSniper]

Im eyeing that Aqua Terra for months now.

[@johnswatchjoint]

It's gorgeous

[@j.walker7990]

The AD2070 almost looked like an updated AD2048 to me at first which has a great homage dial where as this one looks a little more original unless I am mistaken. I'm not sure if I like the new addiesdive logo in fancy cursive font. But I guess I would rather it than the old cartoonish one.

[@johnswatchjoint]

I'm with you on the logo. It still needs an overhaul! 😊

[@markmahood3093]

I see the crypto spam bots are out in force! Need to get myself a cup of tea for this one. Thanks John

[@johnswatchjoint]

It's all right I'll sort that out! ☺️

[@beebeebooboo5792]

Is that cadisen a original design or a homage?

[@johnswatchjoint]

Sorry I just posted an SKX homage on my community feed and thought I was replying to it! This is an homage kind of...of an Islander watch!

[@drazenprahin7754]

It is really overwhelming these days, so many great releaseses on DAILY basis..really hard to choose..AD and WD are killing it with affodable great speced pieces..I really don't need more watches but how to say no to those deals😅😅

[@johnswatchjoint]

It's difficult for guys and equally so for me as there are so many I cannot review. I have reviewed nearly 300 watches now and it's difficult for me to find watches that suit everyone. No matter, I am not a sales channel...just enjoy the content 🤗

@johnswatchjoint I've never brought a watch for anyone else to like I buy them for me, people ask at my work what's that watch am I wearing and I'll say a san martin , zelos, Seiko or citizen. I'm not telling them it's a berny 😂

Haha! 😂

[@TonyTonyCurrie]

not seeing any 11/11 prices that tempt me, prices have gone up on all watches in my basket and even with 11/11 prices and codes are more expensive than last month.

[@johnswatchjoint]

Yes but remember you have personal discount codes from stores you follow plus the discount codes that are listed when the sale starts. I will keep you updated to date with that. Stack your codes...get the discounts 🤗. I am usually organised the day before the sake but a crucial appointment for my daughter happened at the most awkward time so I am a little behind. No matter the info will be out in plenty of time ;)

[@karlsenula9495]

Wish they would just drop the "y" .. would drive sales through the roof. That said I have three watches from them.
