    Great review, as usual!
    Plus one about the logo thing…
    It really subtracts to the overall elegant look of this watch.
    A very nice watch otherwise!
    Love the dog too!!!
    Thanks for the video!

    Great review and channel. I just subscribed. I liked this watch so much, having discovered it through other reviews, that I bought one with the light blue dial. It looks like a quality piece, is great looking, and the bracelet is comfortable. I do prefer a thinner watch and the screw down crown can get a bit tedious when I don't wear it for a few days. That said, you can't beat it for the price, but I think it's worth more than it costs. It became my daily driver.

    I like what Addiesdive are doing with these dials paired with dress style hands and indices. However, this watch is far too thick to look elegant and the Addiesdive logo looks out of place on the dial as you said. Good review 👍

    Mine didn't get more than a week wrist time. It's just too thick at 14,3 mm, especially the domed crystal is thick. In my opinion Pagani Design PD-1734 with VH31 mechaquartz, 11,8 mm thick, is a much better choice.
    Bracelets aren't that good in either watch, but I think none are in 50-150€ range.
    Same burr on clasp on mine and on Watchdives WD1680 which has the same clasp. I went one step further and picked up a diamond nail file and just filed all the edges on that part of the clasp and the other side.
    Micro adjustment was also hard on mine, I think you are right that the spring bar is 1mm too long. My end result was better than yours though, just one tiny scratch.
    But with NH35A, a Submariner (for example Sugess) or Seastern S434 are probably the best choice. Still 12,5 mm, but that's as good as you are going to get with an auto.

    The holes on the clasp are a common problem with addiesdive. I have 2 VH31 movement Addiesdives and both have these elongated holes. The clasps are functional and secure though and I absolutely love the watches. I am not so fond of my AD2112 with its NH37 movement however; it is the most inconsistently inaccurate watch I have ever had and I would not recommend it to anyone.

      Hello ccooper8785. Sorry to hear that, both about the Micro adjustment holes and your experience with the AD2112. Overall I really like AddiesDive but I haven’t had the same issues. Thanks for watching.

    This watch, to me, has to be one of the most beautiful pieces out there, almost grand seiko level. The only down slide to me is the unnecessary logo with its text too, i think just the logo would have been better

    • @EricsEverydayWatches
      @EricsEverydayWatches  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My thoughts too. They need a simpler logo for their dress watches. Something more refined. Thanks for watching.

    @WristWatching ปีที่แล้ว +2

    These things are way too good for their price point. Great review as always, Eric! Good comment on having a secondary logo for their dress watches. The logo is the only thing holding me back from getting this watch.

    • @EricsEverydayWatches
      @EricsEverydayWatches  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Harvind. If that’s the case, you could always put a piece of black tape over the logo. Then you wouldn’t have to look at it. Just an idea 😂.

    They clearly were trying to copy the Grand Seiko SBGY007 "Omiwatari". Look at the hands and indices as well. Doesn't look bad for the price though.
