    not bad, but the SRPK35K in orange just that little nicer for the money from your last deal :D

        i would unironically buy this over the Erebus Origin

        • Muzeeb on 20/10/2023 - 11:43

          A lot cheaper also

        • coffeeinmyveins on 20/10/2023 - 12:57

          The amount of fanboying over Erebus because of one of the creators is a sight to behold.

          It's just another microbrand at an expensive price point for what it is, but all of the FB groups related to Aussie watches are swooning over this as if it's the second coming of Christ.

          "ohhhh amazing work on the colours, gents!" "love the gradient!" "omg finally" as if they made the watch themselves and didn't just dropship it from China.

    • beltdrive on 20/10/2023 - 11:59

      tbh there are enough watch buyers on here that I reckon it would be possible to sell out a run of OzB watches.

      wonder if it's possible to commission a group buy of customs from an Aliexpress manufacturer

      • WatchNerd on 20/10/2023 - 12:19

        Good idea, then we could have limited edition versions. First would be the Tightarse model.

          can i pre-order the jv version after? random numbers would be in bold

      • Chazzozz on 21/10/2023 - 11:32

        I like this idea as well, but we'd no doubt need to seek the blessing of Scotty, since he owns the rights to the OzB logo. In all seriousness, does anyone have an idea how to go about doing this? In my limited experience with Ali Express I've only seen that the Tandorio brand advertises they do custom builds. Do everyone's favourites Addies Dive and SteelDive do them, too?

    This dial would be nice in a dark blue or green , but given the money a nice watch regardless ✅

    I'm almost glad most Citizen watches are too large for my wrists, saves me from impulse buying.

  • Chip Diamond on 20/10/2023 - 11:04

    I'd dive on a blue one of these!

    • Astronaut Joe on 20/10/2023 - 11:14

      AW1761-89L

      it is bluer than the renders make it appear

      • beltdrive on 20/10/2023 - 12:46

        It's like, how much more blue could this be? And the answer is none — none more blue.

  • JimB on 20/10/2023 - 11:29

    Not that it would ever affect me, but what's with the water resistant rating?

    "Water resistant 100 Metres - in general, suitable for swimming and snorkeling, but not diving"

    Shouldn't they just call a spade a spade- Water resistant 100 Metres to me means the watch will be Water resistant at 100 metres below the surface. Sure I'll be dead by them but at least my watch should be a-ok when they pull it off my body.

    • Astronaut Joe on 20/10/2023 - 11:37

      It's a bit like tent capacities: "three man tent" means that, sure, you might theoretically get three people in there but nobody is going to realistically do it.

      The WR rating is a once-off static measure of a new sample. So, like the tent, it is a theoretical maximum that in reality you're not going to try and achieve.

      The only rating that really matters is if a watch is labelled "Diver's 200m", in which case it does have to stand up to a rigorous set of tests under different conditions. A Diver's 200 is tested for repeated immersions in salt water with changes in temperature and pressure up to 250m.

      What the ratings actually mean are:
      30/50m: ok for washing up or wearing in the rain
      100m: you can go swimming with it
      200m: you can go snorkeling with it
      Diver's 200m: you can go scuba diving with it

      • piston3461 on 20/10/2023 - 11:38

        I’d also not submerse any watch in water that doesn’t have a screw down crown / pushers , regardless of the rating

      • JimB on 20/10/2023 - 11:46

        Cheers.

        Seems like they should divide the rating by 50!

        Wouldn't this be a divers watch? Certainly looks like it is.

        • Astronaut Joe on 20/10/2023 - 11:49

          No. It is a divers-style watch.

          Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, after all how many of us even go swimming with these watches, never mind fair dinkum diving.

    The only thing holding me back from purchasing this previously was the non-rotating bezel, but at this price I can overlook that.

  • Munki on 20/10/2023 - 11:56

    Thought it was the orange Seiko 5 GMT for a split second then I saw the price.

    • Muzeeb on 20/10/2023 - 12:07

      Surely the word citizen in the title was the giveaway.

      • Munki on 20/10/2023 - 12:07

        I don't read, bro.

        Actually, I'm Chinese. I read right to left!

          Actually the same (not Chinese though) . I scroll by looking at the picture first, then buying, then reading the title, then regretting, then posting in the forums about return policies.

      It strikes a blood-orange tone on my setup.
