    Nice watch, if I didn't already have 9 watches I would jump on this..

      No contest, but 15 here. Nothing outlandish in terms of price. Name your top 3 favourite watches, expensive or not. K go!

      Mine would have be:
      Xeric Halograph Automatic
      Eone Bradley Element Black
      Casio remote control watch (had it since 1999)

      The top two get a mention as I think they are one of the most unique looking watches. The third is sentimental.

          @tomleonhart:

          I bought the Omega in Tokyo, second hand. It was a brilliant price and I just happened to be at the right place at the right time. It's the only one of the three that feels right and good to wear.

          I bought the Graham in London. It was a 'planned impulse' and I don't own it anymore - it's a beautiful watch but it never wore right on my wrist. It just looked too gaudy and I felt a twit wearing it. I guess I just grew out of it.

          The Calibre was a gift - a beautiful watch with a black deployant strap, but I never wear it now (mostly because it reminds me of the gifter).

        All my watches courtesy of StarBuy. Kudos to them, I'll never go anywhere else for my watch purchases. Friendly, efficient and excellently priced.
        1) Recently acquired (yesterday) - The Citizen Satellite Wave CC9025-51E. Looks damn sexy and is damn accurate too!
        2) Previous to that, got a Citizen GMT BJ7075-02E. Really like the leather on this one, plus the size.
        3) First Eco-Drive purchase - The Citizen Eco Drive BU4000-50E. Classic, simple, elegant. The best a man can get.

      • J4ckal on 15/06/2017 - 19:36

        Where would one source a cheap/knockoff version of the Eone Bradley? The design intrigues me but the $400 price tag does not. I understand quality would go down as the price does too.

        Yes, they were banned for a while but i suspect they might be getting up to speed now, though i still restrict myself to low-priced items.

        I just pay by PayPal, keep track of what i buy via a spreadsheet, and if it doesn't arrive within a month i ask for a refund, and if there's a problem i just raise a refund dispute with PayPal which has worked every time where there is non-delivery.

      I have that one and it is a great little (although not actually at 44mm) watch. Swapped the strap pretty quickly but found a striped nato that matched it perfectly

      http://i66.tinypic.com/ay9kco.jpg

      A bit like this except red instead of orange (I got the black version rather than brown)

      • WatchNerd on 15/06/2017 - 14:11

        Looks great on that strap, can you confirm the lug width please?

          I bought from Ozstraps the last time they had a sale. All NATO straps though.

          I've bought NATO straps from ebay and cheapestnatostraps.com and have been disappointed with the quality. The hardware in particular has made my watches look and feel cheap.

          I got a Shiznit strap from ToxicNATOs and the quality is in a totally different league to what I've tried before. Shipping was quick and the guy who runs it seems like a good guy.

          https://www.toxicnatos.com/collections/watch-straps

          I've also read good things about PhenomeNato straps, but they are SLOW. They estimate 20 days to ship an order but I've been waiting a month and mine hasn't shipped.

          Trust me, there is a big different in fabric, stictching, laser cut holes and buckle hardware and keepers. Plus, compared to Aliexpress, they give accurate specs on width, length, weave etc. There are codes floating around often and great deals during US holidays or shopping events.

        20 dollars or less, let's see them!

        The word "homage" is used on watch forum websites to describe a watch that looks pretty much exactly like a more expensive model.

      Stay well clear of Downunderwatches. They are not an Australian business, they are a front for an existing shitty, international watch store, Creationwatches.

      I purchased a watch which was defective out of the box, they told me to send it to the manufacturer or take it to a watch repairer.

    Edit: In fact I ended up buying two then swapping out one of the bands for this black, leather alligator band:

    Got two, both had the same problem with the chronometer function in that they'd get stuck at non zero times when reset.
    Tried doing that combination of buttons to fully reset but it would only temporarily fix it if at all.
    Nice looking watch for the price but irritating when you look at the face and see the small dials completely wrong.

    Any suggestions of similar watches that have dials <40mm? I think I did see a similar Skmei but open to suggestions. Just a simple dress watch style will do.

    In other watch news, I started my proper collection and am now the proud owner of a Seiko snk809 (skywatches) and Casio W800h (Amazon). Still intrigued by what the Chinese can pull off for the price though. Thanks to the wonderful ozb watch deal posters :)

    Next on my list is a dressier Seiko auto that's less than 40mm. I'd get the bambino but I don't think they'd fit my wrist well.

    • WatchNerd on 16/06/2017 - 12:41

      Congrats on the Seiko SNK, they are a must have for anyone with small wrists.

      The Skmei 9083 is 40mm, scroll down through this search as there are a few sellers that have it for $9.50 shipped
      Skmei 9083 blue or brown approx AU$9.30 shipped
      It looks the same as the GUANQIN Watch which apparently has sapphire, but I find that hard to believe.

        • jdf on 16/06/2017 - 17:16

          @WatchNerd: Really like the blue face on the 9083. Would you know if I would be able to attach a stainless steel bracelet to it and which one would you recommend.

        • WatchNerd on 16/06/2017 - 23:16

          @jdf: Sure you could, but I think they look better on a nato strap. A popular SS bracelet for this style is the mesh type.

      @PJC

      …I started my proper collection…

      Accumulating a collection myself.

      Received two over the last week (including my first Automatic - a J.Springs from Creation Watches), and that Casio W800H-1AV - the alarm is a little weak, and brief, but it's easy to read and waterproof. I should have bought that vibrating one when i had the chance. I bought the ones in this deal as well to check them out - might end up giving them away. I've got a few Eco-Drives, a cheap TW Steel and a cute Q&Q. Oh, and a GShock from ages ago.

      Hey WatchNerd (or anyone else for that matter, esp those i've listed), if you catch this and have the time can you suggest any useful tools for this stuff? Might be useful to others as well. I've got a band to adjust for a start (involves a little hammer by the looks of it), and i know there's tools for removing the caseback. I did see some cheap stuff on eBay, but perhaps you have suggestions. If not don't worry about it and i'll re-do that cruise on eBay for what seems the right tools.

      Can someone tell me if that listing at the start actually ended up pinging you? - i can't tell as they're empty references (don't link to a comment)…

    How does this one compare to let's say a tag? Does price equal accuracy?

    I'm looking for something to go with a Fitbit on my other wrist.

    I want to like the Naviforce, but that minute hand is so damn short.

      That watch has fake sub dials, they are for decoration only.

        all Chinese watches are for decoration only, but who cares

    Thanks OP, i was seriously tempted last time this deal was posted, and this is even better!

    Review - I bought this the last time. Not sure what I expected from a $10 chronograph, but after one use of the chronograph function the seconds dial hand always resets to about 3s rather than 0, and after a couple more uses it now resets to about 10s rather than 0. After than this, it seems to work though. And you could tell this from the diameter, but if you're a girl/have smaller wrists it looks rather ridiculous. Kudos that the chronograph even works at all for this price though, and I really appreciate the date & luminous hands.
