      $700 ish vs $100 ish ? I don't see how that's comparable ?

    • butter on 03/12/2017 - 19:05

      I recently bought the satellite wave for 450 from a previous ebay deal. These watches are way too large. At 48mm they look stupidly big. They really need to be about 42-43mm max.

      If this was, I'd be all over it. I sent the other one back.

    • ilikeit on 03/12/2017 - 20:00

      What an odd suggestion. The watch you are suggesting is significantly more expensive (its specs are much higher) and a completely different style. It's also ridiculously sized at 48mm - your wrist would have to be over 8 inches plus in circumference. Given the high accuracy of quartz, I reckon the satellite tech is a bit overkill - which you are paying for. Really, How long does it take to set the time?

      For that asking price, you can get a Swiss chronograph with a 7750 such as a Victorinox if you look hard enough. Or save a lot more and get a Swiss quartz chrono like a Fortis, Hamilton, Victorinox or Alpina. Perhaps even a Dan Henry 1963.

  • Bargainaholic on 03/12/2017 - 17:47

    Yes it is but at a much higher price ;)

    I have emailed them and trying to get it sub $700 as a deal post. See how we go

    • 8200 on 03/12/2017 - 17:51

      $700 less 5% i will bite, its Titanium FFS, have one already, fab material

      • Bargainaholic on 03/12/2017 - 17:58

        Yeh it sure is!

        I got the radio controlled one from a previous deal and have stopped wearing my stainless steel one ever since.

        https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/318268

        Much much lighter, has a premium look to it and seems it's less prone to scratches.

        • ilikeit on 03/12/2017 - 20:31

          Titanium is normally much more susceptible to scratches than SS, so that's surprising to hear. If you want to clean the titanium, use a regular office eraser. Works amazing.

        • PJC on 03/12/2017 - 22:03

          Titanium is better suited to a dress watch. eBay has many secondhand titanium watches with scratching.

      • ruprectaus on 03/12/2017 - 18:04

        I would find it VERY hard to resist as well :) at that price

    Strap is quite ugly for the watch

    • ilikeit on 03/12/2017 - 20:08
      +2

      I agree. The canvas style nylon Nato is way too thick. You can see (at 13 sec in the video mentioned above) how far off the wrist the watch head sits due to the double layer of strap. Easy and cheap to change, but it fits the style.

      • myusername on 04/12/2017 - 11:15

        agreed there, watch looks nice but that strap, well maybe this is why it's on sale

    • WatchNerd on 03/12/2017 - 20:39

      I think it was to do with a make an offer price, which isn't allowed as a deal.

    Bought a Citizen Eco-Drive Perpetual Calendar Watch BL8002-08A for my dad in 2008/09 and it still goes strong. The beauty of perpetual calendar is once its set ,it goes for ever -No worries about short February ,No worries about Leap years-It just goes on. Fantastic watch.

    • harkoliar on 03/12/2017 - 21:53

      Got something similar. Perpetual watch is great. Don't have to change anything plus solar so it can last a very long time.

    • [Deactivated] on 04/12/2017 - 11:07

    Great price on an Eco-Drive Chronograph.

  • giovannip on 04/12/2017 - 01:19

    I can't pick between black or white. White seems to be more popular on ozb judging by sales.

    Also I like the way the white one looks with the strap, however I am more than likely going to change it, what straps would you all reccomend for either watch?

    • PJC on 04/12/2017 - 01:40
      +1

      Both would go well with a stainless steel strap but I favour white over grey because it is a busy dial. Measure carefully before ordering a strap because I cannot find the current strap width anywhere.

      • giovannip on 04/12/2017 - 02:02

        Thank you. I will get the white one. Just spent an hour looking for a watch case lol

        • PJC on 04/12/2017 - 02:37

          A watch case for inserting a movement etc or a box to put several watches in?

        • giovannip on 04/12/2017 - 02:41

          @PJC: oops I meant box.

        • Jackal on 04/12/2017 - 07:33

          @PJC:
          20 watch box is pretty amaze.

        • PJC on 04/12/2017 - 08:55

          @Jackal: Member WatchNerd has a box from that seller. I bought the 12-watch version for my wife. Equal to the $199 versions we scrutinised in a couple of jewellery stores.

          Haha no I don't. I don't own any watch box.

        • PJC on 04/12/2017 - 09:24

          @WatchNerd: Oh sorry! I must have misinterpreted a comment of yours a few months ago!

        • Jackal on 04/12/2017 - 09:48

          @PJC:
          Once you received it they were as good as jeweller watch boxes in real life???!!!

        • WatchNerd on 04/12/2017 - 10:16

          @PJC:

          I think I may have put a link to one on eBay that ilikeit had mentioned one time.

          Also just noticed in the Aldi catalogue, they have a 5 slot watch box for $20.00 soon.

        • PJC on 04/12/2017 - 10:25

          @WatchNerd: I probably assumed you bought one.

        • PJC on 04/12/2017 - 10:27
          +1

          @Jackal: Yes. My wife keeps her watches in it. She's now down to 8. They are much better value than flowers and if I buy her chocolates I eat most of them anyway.

        • ilikeit on 04/12/2017 - 12:11
          +2

          @WatchNerd: the Aldi watch boxes are ok, like cheap eBay ones I guess, bit you can inspect them first. Last year they sold out quickly near me.

          I picked up the Aldi sunglasses box which is the same as the watch box, just different dividers. It's great of just lay your flat. Mine if full now with watch strap, natos, spring bars and tools and bracelet links.

          I have a wooden watch box for the longevity compared to PU which peels.

        • Jackal on 04/12/2017 - 12:52

          @ilikeit:

          Do you have the ebay link still?

        • WatchNerd on 04/12/2017 - 15:17

          @Jackal: I think it was this one, it's been in my watch list for ages -

          10 Slot Wooden Watch Case ~AU$26.47 + $17.76 shipping = approx $44.23

          @Jackal: I bought this one in the small size with 18 slots and accessories compartments. It is SOLID.

          It's still available in the larger size - one left.

          I paid AU $30.36 and about $35 postage. If you're going to hide it away in your closet, I'd probably just get a cheaper one. This one is def nicer to display and should last a long time.

        • giovannip on 04/12/2017 - 22:57

          @PJC: I bought this one before you sent me a link: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/302548472835 ( I wanted somewhere to put my cufflinks too) and when I get some movement watches, I am going to add this to my collection https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/322580712259 .

          I also liked this combo: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/322836717249 with https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/322743321691

        • PJC on 04/12/2017 - 23:56

          @giovannip: Certainly a nice appearance but consider a wooden winder box if possible.

        • PJC on 05/12/2017 - 00:09

          @giovannip: One or two of these may suit you.

        • giovannip on 05/12/2017 - 00:26
          +1

          @PJC: they seem a lot nicer. It's just very hard to tell from the pictures how they all compare in real life. Maybe I will also replace the cheap one I bought now in the future. Perhaps I can find something to match the wood of the winder you showed me.

    • WatchNerd on 04/12/2017 - 19:47

      What size is your wrist?

      Wrist shots are notoriously misleading if you are wanting to try see how it may look on you.
      There are too many variables involved.

      • drogba on 04/12/2017 - 21:18

        Thanks for the tips mate. My wrists are quite small so i think this will be far too big for me.

        • WatchNerd on 04/12/2017 - 21:41

          Yes 45mm is considered on the large size in the watch community.

      • Tryptophan on 04/12/2017 - 21:51

        Hey WatchNerd, i've been following a lot of your posts and have picked up some of the cheaper ones to try getting into the feel of wearing them more often.

        I have a similar problem to drogba. Small wrists - any watches you'd recommend 40mm or under? to give you a better idea, I have a Fossil Blue “bq-9196”… i think that is under or equal to 40mm. Pretty much ideal on my wrist (juuust a little chunky, but it's the closest thing i've come to perfect fit).

          With limited info on your budget and what style you want, maybe look at Seiko 5 models. They have a lot on offer that are smaller in diameter.

          Also I just commented on these 38mm Citizen Eco-Drives here.
