- Hello,
Welcome to this review of the Bettimer B8001. A new watch brand to Aliexpress who have made the usual faux pas that many new Chinese brands tend to make and that's not checking whether their brand name actually makes sense in the Western market.
To give Bettimer their dues in my opinion they have made a decent watch. Mind you It's not without it's flaws.
*I'm not affiliated with Bettimer and my review is impartial, however for full transparency I was given a discount code through a Reddit advertisement for the brand so I didn't pay full price. Cheers.

Love the Baume & Mercier Rivera. And I'd wear it in copper all day long.
Yes!
Thanks for the great review. I’m ok with the name. I would probably pronounce it different if anyone asks. The watch is fantastic though. Big respect for the brown date wheel color. Thanks!
Thanks for watching! What pronunciation would you go for?, B-ett-imer almost sounds German, that could work, ha.
Thanks for the insightful review. I agree with your assessment. The copper orange dial color is something different and attractive but the rose gold color of the B logo just doesn’t belong on the dial. Regarding the brand name, maybe it’s pronounced similarly to lattimer? gossamer? Who knows. I can live with it though. What do you think looks better in person, this or the Cronos?
Nice intro, reminds me of Steve Lacy.
They need to change company name and use of two indexes at 12 o'clock instead of a logo. Also removing the date display would make the dial very symmetrical
The pumpkin color dial is unpleasant
I like it, but I can understand how it won't be to everyone's taste.
I propose we pronounce it BET-eh-mer instead of Bet-TIMER.
