Cheers for another comprehensive overview, John. I was one of those who jumped at the Tandorio W10 in Green, and even though I have a 7 3/4 inch wrist, it wears beautifully. Like you, I really love it. Thanks, again.
JWJ - you're another of my favourite channels for Ali sales top picks list. Thanks but my wallet will be very sorry. I really like the Sugess 38mm chrono and the Thorn A11 retro - unique & classy.
I might just have to get the SM 62mas. I’ll use your link! I do need extra bracelet links so it will fit my 8.2 inch wrist though. How do I ask for extra links for the bracelet? I don’t see any way to add a note when checking out. Do I have to do that after purchasing?
I usually use the messaging feature. Tag the watch picture and send your message saying you need extra links prior to purchase. They will get back to you as they try to get extra sales that way ;)
Hi John, I ordered that little Thorn in bronze with a camoflage dial. I did nor realize that the strap had that underpass bit on it which I don't like.
@@johnswatchjoint If they made 38, 45 lug and Miyota 10 high...12mm with chrystal... 50 fathoms omage... I would buy it in a second. This 40 is too big for me.
I like the Sugess Chronos but I'm reluctant to buy them with a Seagull ST19. I have a Seagull 1963 in my collection and it's definitely no everyday piece. I'd prefer them with quartz.
Yeah I must admit there is a bit of pressure on here as at this time last year new releases were scarce...this year there are just too many new releases and not enough time and money to buy or review them all. I am happy to bring content but not to sell so there is no pressure on any of my subscribers. So many say sorry as they cannot buy! That is not what this is about. Cheers buddy ;)
@@johnswatchjoint I still enjoy window shopping by watching your videos. I just realised I have fifteen watches, that's rather a lot! I haven't even got a TH-cam channel as an excuse 🤣
The Octopus as well as the others I reviewed all had their positives. The Thorn is brand new and is on the way so I cannot comment. Only you can decide my friend :)
Thank you for these finds, really excited to see that Cadisen now after I practically stole it at £57,60.. including our 25% VAT even! Super good link and that store had extra coupon as well (also thank you for your AliE "education video", otherwise I would surely have missed that little coupon!)
Hi John Thank you for always showing good watches. I received the sesterns435 st2130 version yesterday. The middle case is about 1mm thinner than s434, and the glass is about 1mm higher. In the end, the overall thickness is similar. But aesthetically, the s435 is more beautiful. And I'm not sure, but no matter how much I look at it, the s435 lume seems stronger. Of course, the lume in the s434 is good. The a11 of thorn was received three days ago. Small, cute, and unique. I recommend buying one for less than 100 dollars. I have a question. I'm looking to buy san martin sn0111 what do you think? I'm not sure because the sword hand looks a little short. I was told that the middle case was also sharp. I will always support your TH-cam.
Hi there and thanks for posting. Unfortunately I have never handled that particular watch so I cannot answer accurately. I am not really a fan of it and did take on board a few negative comments about it, exactly the same as you have seen. If in doubt, don't get the wallet out! ;)
Have to thank you John for bringing that green Tandorio 36mm to my attention, I'm loving it!, I got the same no logo version and it has to be the best value watch out there ever!!! it's awesome, nice one.
There’s a red dial version that I keep going back to look at. Never considered a red watch in my life, but there’s something about it. Really gorgeous blue version, too.
I love all the sale videos. The sm 62mas is the one I want Edit - I'm really happy you got that one in because I had talked to you about it and I'm excited to see it fits your wrist.
@johnswatchjoint I really appreciate it :). I love the engagement and the fact you think about the subscribers. Thank you for tipping me over the edge and showing me the watch on a similar sized wrist.
John ... mate, I bought a few watches during the 11.11 sale, my wallet is still smoking, and now Black Friday. Is there any hope for a watch addict like myself? My wife now knows you by name, and when she catches me watching your videos, she looks at me and just says "nooooo". Oh man, it's not easy 😂🤣
Hahaha....I feel your pain. This time last year producers were pretty quiet...not this year so much choice and some amazing quality. Good to see...but my collection is also bigger!
Need to make a no date version of the Seestern..... Super traditional design.... The date is not part of that! Kills it for me. And to take make me happy: Retro designs really ought to use a matte finished bezel insert! Unless they're doing the domed hesilite style bezel.... In which case sapphire bezels are great for that look. And I never want to see Blue AR again on a watch that isn't blue! And gladly would pay a little bit extra for an NH38 on a no date watch!
@@johnswatchjoint I do! Sorry.... I'm currently flustered a bit. Sorry I guess I haven't commented on your videos enough for you to know that yet. It was nothing personal! Appreciating your content. 🥂😎
Hi there, I was being jocular so no apologies necessary. I get to know all of my subscribers and you certainly don't mince your words! Always remember, I don't make these watches or necessarily like these watches...I only review them so you can see them. I look forward to more from you in the future. Thanks for your support 🙏.
Hi John, I am eagerly waiting for the post 📫 Great channel you have kept them coming.
Hi Ben and thank you so much. Glad we managed to sort things. :)
Great video! That Thorn A11 is a real looker. I bought the bronze with cream dial myself, excited for that one to come in.
Very nice!
Do a short I want to see that one

Always great choices from you
Thx buddy 😊

I love the Sugess S442 in the rose gold case. Want to buy it, just don’t know if it’s worth it because the rose gold might fade with time.
I might just have to get the SM 62mas. I’ll use your link! I do need extra bracelet links so it will fit my 8.2 inch wrist though. How do I ask for extra links for the bracelet? I don’t see any way to add a note when checking out. Do I have to do that after purchasing?

@@johnswatchjoint perfect. I will try that. Thanks!
Cracking list as always. I really like what San Martin is doing with that GMT Case. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Hi John, I ordered that little Thorn in bronze with a camoflage dial. I did nor realize that the strap had that underpass bit on it which I don't like.
It actually helps reduce the slight bulge of the embedded bullet ;)
I got to say, Thorn puts out some really cool looking watches.
They seem to be on a roll :)
@@johnswatchjoint If they made 38, 45 lug and Miyota 10 high...12mm with chrystal... 50 fathoms omage... I would buy it in a second. This 40 is too big for me.
Geez.....ya don't want much buddy...have you ever succeeded in actually buying a watch? Haha 😆
@@johnswatchjoint Yes, Seiko 38mm Sne Solar. But I'm looking into first mechanical...and they are all too big and heavy.
Yes if you are used to quartz it is a different game entirely...but once you are hooked...uh oh ! Thanks for watching :)
I like the Sugess Chronos but I'm reluctant to buy them with a Seagull ST19. I have a Seagull 1963 in my collection and it's definitely no everyday piece. I'd prefer them with quartz.
I have to agree with you on that one but I have owned an Alpha chronograph before with that movement and loved it
Nice variety there 👍 . Too soon since the last sale for me. That Cadisen looks very good, I keep thinking of picking up one of their watches.

Another great video
Thought you might have had the Tandorio Serica homage now available with Red dial and Blue dial
I think 2 Tandorios are enough haha and they are established now ;)
I’ve got the blue dial/black bezel in my cart right now, and the white one I ordered on 11/11 hasn’t even been delivered yet!
Yeah most of my AliExpress Haul is also still in transit. The postal service has really slowed down....
Just about to pull the trigger on the Octopus Kracken ..but that new Thorn version looks good good value at €160 ..which one should I go for ?
The Octopus as well as the others I reviewed all had their positives. The Thorn is brand new and is on the way so I cannot comment. Only you can decide my friend :)

Glad you found some value...I aim to please :)
Hi John, What a list!! The Green Tandorio it's realy pop funky watch. Crazy design. So, big problem, hard decisions. 😅 🏌️♂️
...just do what I do...and go skint! No...please don't :) !

@johnswatchjoint thanks friend ~
That first San Martin is amazing... had no idea.
It's a great looking piece isn't it? :)
Thorn A11 seems rather nice. But that bullet just seems daft. Also, why make very thick watch even thicker?
Each to their own. Wearing it as we speak. Love it. It's an awesome little thing ;)
With the number of sales on Ali, it seems a bit of a lottery as to which one you will get the best price.
I've seen that prices differ from sale to sale, you probably won't get the same price on a watch every sale, and I've been monitoring a few
Have to thank you John for bringing that green Tandorio 36mm to my attention, I'm loving it!, I got the same no logo version and it has to be the best value watch out there ever!!! it's awesome, nice one.
Great to hear...seems I found a winner there! : 😀
There’s a red dial version that I keep going back to look at. Never considered a red watch in my life, but there’s something about it. Really gorgeous blue version, too.
Just go for it, at those prices you really cant go wrong, they are seriously cool for the monies
All of the dials are very well finished and you will get lost in them ;)
I love all the sale videos. The sm 62mas is the one I want
Edit - I'm really happy you got that one in because I had talked to you about it and I'm excited to see it fits your wrist.
...I always try to please within reason. This is a cracker! Glad you are happy ☺️
@johnswatchjoint I really appreciate it :). I love the engagement and the fact you think about the subscribers. Thank you for tipping me over the edge and showing me the watch on a similar sized wrist.
No problem. This is what I do ;)
I have bought the sm62 más in the 37mm with pt5000 in the 11/11 sale. Hopefully will be here in a week or so.
Nice one 😀
Why are you making me this Sugess?? Why 😂
“El primero” for the win 🏆
The thorn is fire
I love it :)
Super selection
Thank you sir 🙏
I was hoping for some proxima
They are in my previous sales videos ;)
@@johnswatchjoint thanks! What do you think of proxima px1704? Also, can you please review it?

they are wondering value for money.
Delay? That'll be Evrie then! Yeah who else has or had 5 day turn to 6 or 7? Teehee
Probably not wrong 😆
My 11/11 sale watches haven't shown up to Canada yet so screw them.
Neither have some of mine. Not AliExpress, it's our postal service :(
San Martin using FedeX?
Certainty to get customs stung?
Huh?
AliExpress sale you say! 😂 You always manage to put out really good content John. Top man. That Tandorio w10 is absolutely ridiculous value.
Glad you like them!
