The New 36mm Rimalti | Full review | The Watcher

[@gilbertoflores7397]

I was tempted by this watch, wanted to get the red one, but the glam shots didn't make it look like an intense red shade. And since it's Rimatli they'll eventually do more dial colors, maybe a champagne color, which I thought would be more appropriate for this style of watch, I'll wait out for more options.

[@michaelcozens7537]

Nice watch but that’s not Guilloche finishing. Love that they didn’t do the easy thing and make it 20mm lug width as this 18mm keeps it in proportion. Thanks for the review

[@TheWatcherReviews]

What finishing would you call that?

[@michaelcozens7537]

@@TheWatcherReviews oh don’t worry about me, I’ll just spend an hour on google. According to Teddy Baldassarre when describing a Seiko Presage Cocktail Time ( which I think this is most similar too) …”The dials, then as now, are defined by a Sunray finish with a radiating texture from the centre who’s ripping edges give the impression of a Birds Eye view into a cocktail glass” I’ll let you google guilloche as I can’t copy and paste and I’m loosing the will to live. 😁it’s 1am here and I’m off to bed.

[@gilbertoflores7397]

​​@@michaelcozens7537if you've seen a cocktail time watch, you'd know its not the same as this dial at all. The cocktail time ripples aren't as indented like this dial is. It's more like some sort of fluted patterned than call it a cocktail time dial, just a similar look, but definitely different process of making. Breguet makes guilloche dial pattens and one of them looked like this dial patten. guilloche can be more complicated, but this would technically be considered guilloche from a bit of research.

[@NotoriousK_I_T]

Guilloche is more about fine machining and texture, such as on the new Erebus watches or the Christopher Ward Twelve

[@eugenevedensky6071]

Just reordered the green. Thanks for the footage. I have a 40 mm gs but find the case to be just a bit too big, but I don't have the appetite to buy another 44gs so I think this case is super novel and worth getting

[@jaer.6540]

Looks amazing, but wish the lug width was 20mm.

[@garylangford6755]

mate that black dial has the 12 o clock marker off center too! easy as daylight to see 4:48

[@garylangford6755]

holy cow it's off center in their listing photos too! what a joke company

[@Trevorpartington-yc6ri]

that case and strap is is stunning !

[@leonardkoh6926]

Rimalti made nice case and hands, I bought a few from them, although sometimes got some QC issue, they are fast to respond and offer remedy

[@mohnnadmercedes8246]

Issues mostly in which part ? Case or bracelet?

[@TheWatcherReviews]

@mohnnadmercedes8246 in other watches

[@leonardkoh6926]

@ bracelet

[@the_9ent]

What a looker. In the basket for November’s sale 👍

[@Poldek.Misiak]

Does it have sapphire on the caseback? Thanks!

[@kobusvanrensburg4092]

Thought they disappeared. Glad to see they are still in business,and with proper spelling.

[@stavros_katsopr]

Two things, bit out of the blue... GREAT satin brushing on case and bracelet, combined with the mirror one, wish more brands did that. And secondly, i just wondered, how many brand logos were thrown away, just for an "I"... Great details here though. And size in fact. Not a fan of this dial, pretty sure a change will be damn easy, to make this a stunner. Thanks for the review Zeb, be well mate, cheers.

[@markdrummond7]

Thank you, few reviewers look at Rimalti. I suspect they send out fewer free review watches than others.

[@TheWatcherReviews]

I paid for this one, I don't think they send any free watches

[@gilbertoflores7397]

Rimalti only makes like 2 or 3 watches, they only change the dials. Why keep sending out the same watch over and over? Rimalti is great at what they do, but who wants more than 3 of the exact same watch? I'd probably buy more of they kept improving the quality of their bracelets. This is like their first new release in a good while.

[@mohnnadmercedes8246]

Does the case accept 3 oclock 28.5mm oem dials ?

[@TheWatcherReviews]

Yes it does

[@mohnnadmercedes8246]

@ hmmm I cant stop thinking about reviving 45KS !!

[@ikeman5774]

Good looking watch. QC needs to step up a little.

[@alixrza3107]

Gorgeous watch, nice to see they sorted it for you aswell👍👍

[@TheWatcherReviews]

Yes it was

[@adk7962]

Damn. That’s is a stunner. If I didn’t get one of Jody’s Ascent Watches, I would for sure get this one. I may get one anyway. And you are right, I would want at least three of the colors. Thanks for the great review!

[@douglaswong3418]

Without buying Jody's Ascent, you can buy two Rimalti watches😂😂

[@adk7962]

@@douglaswong3418 Can’t argue there. 😅

[@Mystery_Man84]

Would this work for a 7.5 inch wrist?

[@gabelov]

Great review. Not related : once you reviewed the diver MM300 blue sunburst dial from Proxima and i cant find it on their site anymore. Do you know if we can still buy it ?

[@TheWatcherReviews]

Discontinued

[@gabelov]

​@@TheWatcherReviewsno way ! that’s sad...

[@gilbertoflores7397]

You could get the heimdallr mm300, it's basically the same watch, and can be found for under 120 dollars, picked up a green one for 98 dollars during the sale. I have the green proxima mm300, they're basically they same watch; proxima has caseback design which feels a bit nicer. But essentially is the same watch in every way.

[@TheWatcherReviews]

Small differences internally on the Proxima and better bezel action, which just makes it a touch better than the heimdallr but great for an alternative to the Proxy

[@carlogalopo2605]

Wish they would have gone with their wood themed dials. The luster on the dial is too much, the case is already beautiful but the dial is too distracting

[@dimasakbar7668]

that is stunningly beautiful

[@deedee8568]

Blimey, that's a blingy dial 😄

[@FCC12321]

What is the difference between Rimalti and Rmalti??? The company has watches with two different spellings of their name. Which one is it???

[@BCallum]

WOW. That dial!!!!! Cannot show this video to my wife. Cheers!!!!

[@panchoskywalker]

What's the dial diameter? For. modding.

[@TheWatcherReviews]

28.5mm

[@Matty9003]

Are you going to be selling this 1 on your ebay mate?

[@Matty9003]

Please tell me you are lol... Or the black dial one you also show.

[@TheWatcherReviews]

I've modded the blue dial one already, I have the black on but without bracelet !

[@Matty9003]

@@TheWatcherReviews how did you mod it? I would still be interested lol. Is the black one on your eBay now?

[@gregtolley3455]

More cocktail time than grand imo.

[@TheWatcherReviews]

Dial wise yes

[@franciscozaragoza7193]

You can find an actual presage cocktail time for about the same price. Why not just get the real thing?

[@TheWatcherReviews]

Cuz it's not a presage cocktail time and you can't find a cocktail time for £150 used even but ofcourse the real cocktail time isn't that expensive and would prefer that as it's own watch

[@Soul_of_a_Robot]

Beauty that bro.

[@udojager2673]

The name is for me a no go.

[@jamesjustin6001]

Anyone else with small wrists instantly turned off with male end links?

[@gilbertoflores7397]

Im starting to believe guys with small wrists don't like anything, and never will. This is literally made for small wristers, it's 36mm, and has an 18mm bracket, it's basically a women's watch.

[@garylangford6755]

​@@gilbertoflores7397what a big man you are

[@garylangford6755]

​@@gilbertoflores7397I agree with you about this being made for small wrists though. But it ain't a women's watch.

[@jamesjustin6001]

​@@gilbertoflores7397 We like female end links. Simple really

[@wiseguygazette]

​@@gilbertoflores7397I have small wrists and I like plenty of watches, ranging from 36mm to 41mm. I just don't like male endlinks. Can't see any benefit. Even on larger wrists they just look worse.

[@Mystery_Man84]

Would this work for a 7.5 inch wrist? Please reply

[@TheWatcherReviews]

Depends if you like the perspective, will look smaller on your wrist than mine
