I bought one of these and I am in shock at how totally and utterly BEAUTIFUL this watch is. How the hell can they make a watch this beautiful for under $100?? As others have said, it IS a bit thick....but I DONT CARE AT ALL!!! IT'S STUNNING. I bought this one to have a 'different'(than my usual) kind of watch and it is a real home run. Keeps very good time and I keep putting it on when I go out....and I have several $$$$ watches that dont look as good.
It is a stunner mate and for the money, it’s definitely hard to beat. The thickness is the only negative (along with the logo perhaps) to what is a great watch, enjoy man 👍👍
This definitely looks to be a stunner in general, let alone for under $100. Sadly it's just too thick for what I'd want to wear it for. Hopefully they make more textured dials like this and bring the thickness down.
I dont even notice how thick it is anymore.....it doesnt bother me nearly as much as I thought it would. I get compliments on it and my neighbor even saw it and wanted one and I gave him the info and he ordered it and got it, already. I had to size the bracelet for him, but he's happy as a clam with it..... How happy ARE clams, anyway??? 0_o@@craiggreeson2614
I can't deal with that logo on dress or sports syle watch. I've emailed them what feels like a 100 times for them to just put their name on the dial of these types of watches, but I just get the same old generic email in return. It's a shame because they do make some of the better watches in their price bracket. That aside, it looks great on you, Simon! 🤣🤣🤣
I’m with you on the thickness. Might get away with it if we consider it a Sport watch instead of a dress watch. Love the dial, and handset seems to pair well.
Great video as usual, mate. I've had my eyes on this one for a while now, and I even think it might be in my cart waiting for some AE sale, not sure lol. Addiesdive/Steeldive (I've always assumed they're like the same brand with just different names?) always deliever in terms of value and quality for the money. That dial is truly spectacular and is of course the star of this show lol. I assume this is a kinda original design, or is it a homage in some way?
I think they may well be closely aligned but I don’t really know how tbh. It’s a stunning watch and may or may not be a homage of a Grand Seiko but I couldn’t possibly say 😉
Another beautiful offering from Addiesdive. I would be tempted to buy if they offered a quartz version as I already own a hopelessly, inconsistently inaccurate AD2112 auto watch.
An absolutely lovely watch, and I really do think the bracelet suits the dial perfectly. The one thing that makes me hesitate is the thickness seen as I have a bit of a small wrist 😬. But again brilliant video as always, the synopsis at the end is always so damn useful incase I've missed anything
I hear you mate as it’s definitely a mill or 2 thicker than it needs to be but otherwise, a very, very good watch for the price. Thanks for your kind words my man 👍👍
There is a dive watch with that dial my friend! AD2117, with 200m water resistance, available in this dial with stainless steel case, and black dial with bronze case. Captain Willard style.
Definitely another homage brand to watch out for. But for such a design, probably the Seiko 5 SNKL23K1 which is under a 100 at times of sale would bring greater value for money for me personally. Thanks for the great review as always!
I don't like their logo on this style of watch (but apparently, I'm not the only one 😅). Except that, it's a great watch. It's impressive what you can get with only 100$. Great review, Simon. Take care of yourself.
Simon, I'm thinking of getting an Addiesdive, and this one (along with your latest video of the 2038) are my top contenders. Do you think that the thinness in this one is too much, or is it wearable as a sports GADA watch (forgetting that ut has no lume)?😊
It is quite thick and as a GADA watch would be ok in most situations, apart from in dressy situations as it won’t slide under a shirt cuff all that easily. Both are great options though and have their pros for sure 👍👍
This is probably my next buy...only thing is the blue version is currently £45 and the white (which I want) is £99! Not fair, lol. I hav a thing about white dials atm.
I have a Pagani Doxa homage and it just has There small P logo on dial. That should be the future too much text or in this case saying a dive watch when is not is wrong!
I own this watch and be a little dissapointed: The dial looks rather cheap like a Swarowski Fashionwatch. More glittery silver than white snow/paper...don't like the texture either, because its too small.
I’m surprised to hear that mate as for the money, I think you’ll really struggle to find anything with such a stunning dial. Thanks for your honest feedback though 👍👍
No Gloves Brother. Wish the Watch was thinner. But I was looking at a Seiko that looks Similar to this, But its out of Stock and The Prices went to the Moon. So I guess Addisdive will get my Money^^
@darioscomicschule1111 like you, I really like lume but given the type of watch it is, it really doesn’t need it and the high polished hands offer a better aesthetic 👍👍
I didn’t mate and I doubt anyone else did, especially on such an affordable watch but given it has good construction, I’d say it’s ok for swimming but no more 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime yeah I wouldn’t expect anyone to actually go diving with it 😂. It would be cool to see if it’s just a number that they slapped on the dial though. Thanks!

@craiggreeson2614 they have it with a Seiko VH31 inside, which is a bit thinner 👍👍

Great job Simon...as usual the logo is what is mentioned most in the comments. I love what Addiesdive are doing and can see past it :)
Cheers John and like you, I can see past it. I hope you’re well 👍👍

I hear you mate and I’ll be sure to mention it to them myself. Thanks for watching 👍👍
@danspanos seems like they finally heard you.
I just got hands on with this one and was really impressed. I wish it was a bit thinner. But for the price it was impressive.
It’s a stunner mate and yes, the thickness is one of the very few drawbacks, especially given it’s very modest price 👍👍
I absolutely love the dial. Great video Simon
I’m glad you like it my friend and I can completely see why 👍👍
I have the Tiffany-like blue dial. Fantastic watch for a really low price!
Ah nice one mate, that was the one I always thought I’d buy but ended up with the white dial, I’m glad you’re enjoying yours 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime i was uncertain which to buy. But the light blue dial was the final choice😊
I’m with you on the thickness. Might get away with it if we consider it a Sport watch instead of a dress watch. Love the dial, and handset seems to pair well.
Most definitely mate. Thanks for watching and I hope you’re well 👍👍
Lovely look... but they need to change their brand name or make a new line for premium looking dress watches such as this
I hear you man. I’m not too concerned by it but I know it’s something many will feel too, let’s see 👍👍
For the money it’s a cracker of a watch 👌🏻
Beautiful dial, nice find 👌
Cheers mate 👍👍
Good review, it's a good looking watch although as you say rather thick. Ideally, I would like the sand dial in this 39mm casee
I know the one mate and it’s on my hit list of watches that I want to feature on the channel 👍👍
Great video as usual, mate. I've had my eyes on this one for a while now, and I even think it might be in my cart waiting for some AE sale, not sure lol.

Sorry to hear that mate but I think I’ve got you covered, check this out - s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DFtOBH7
Great review! I picked this up earlier this month. Subbed 👍
Nice one mate and thanks for the sub 👍👍
An absolutely lovely watch, and I really do think the bracelet suits the dial perfectly. The one thing that makes me hesitate is the thickness seen as I have a bit of a small wrist 😬.

I hear you mate as it’s definitely a mill or 2 thicker than it needs to be but otherwise, a very, very good watch for the price.
Thanks for your kind words my man 👍👍
I don’t think you can get more specs for this money. Maybe a Steeldive Willard but otherwise, I can’t think of a better value watch. Thanks!
No problem my friend - I’m glad you like it 👍👍
Nice watch, but the logo ,and it is not a dive watch which the logo indicates with the word dive.
I get that mate and perhaps it’s something they will look at in the future 👍👍
There is a dive watch with that dial my friend! AD2117, with 200m water resistance, available in this dial with stainless steel case, and black dial with bronze case. Captain Willard style.
Nice watch, but at 14mm+ I’m not sure. It’s got a beautiful Dial, no doubt.
I don’t think it’s Sapphire Crystal shape, suit’s the rest of the design.
That’s fair enough mate and I know what you mean. Thanks for watching anyway 👍👍
Nice dial & handset, nearly finished throughout, nicely fitted end links, anyway I'm a sucker for jubilee style bracelets, I like it!
Nice one mate - I’m glad you like it 👍👍
Definitely another homage brand to watch out for. But for such a design, probably the Seiko 5 SNKL23K1 which is under a 100 at times of sale would bring greater value for money for me personally. Thanks for the great review as always!
Most definitely - thanks for watching my man 👍👍

Except that, it's a great watch. It's impressive what you can get with only 100$.
Great review, Simon. Take care of yourself.
Most definitely mate. Thanks for your continued support and I hope you’re well also 👍👍

I hav a thing about white dials atm.
That sucks to be fair, let’s hope they update it with the white one real soon man 👍👍
I finally bought the white one, it never did go down in price. I paid £84 including tax. I really like it.
@stonerat1 I hear you. It’s so well priced generally, I’m not surprised you finally bit the bullet - enjoy mate 👍👍
I have a Pagani Doxa homage and it just has There small P logo on dial. That should be the future too much text or in this case saying a dive watch when is not is wrong!
Technically it’s not saying it’s a dive watch, it’s just stating what their brand is called but I take your point. Thanks for your feedback 👍👍
for 100 dollars is it a bargain? or do I need to wait some sales?
You can wait as we all like to save money but the reality is, this watch offers great value for money as it is 👍👍
Lo he visto por 55usd
I own this watch and be a little dissapointed:

👍👍
I'll buy a salmon dial - blue hands in a heartbeat
That would look very cool indeed 👍👍
No Gloves Brother. Wish the Watch was thinner. But I was looking at a Seiko that looks Similar to this, But its out of Stock and The Prices went to the Moon. So I guess Addisdive will get my Money^^
For the money, I can completely understand the appeal of this watch and would definitely recommend it 👍👍
@@WatchtheTimeDoes it have Lume?
@darioscomicschule1111 no it doesn’t mate
@@WatchtheTimeIs it a (huge) drawback. Or just Fine without it? I am a Lume Fan.
@darioscomicschule1111 like you, I really like lume but given the type of watch it is, it really doesn’t need it and the high polished hands offer a better aesthetic 👍👍
Did anyone test the water resistance?
I didn’t mate and I doubt anyone else did, especially on such an affordable watch but given it has good construction, I’d say it’s ok for swimming but no more 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime yeah I wouldn’t expect anyone to actually go diving with it 😂. It would be cool to see if it’s just a number that they slapped on the dial though. Thanks!
