For the money I think the case finishing is more than acceptable. Really interesting inner dial and I like how visually the crystal reaches right out to the edges. Its an interesting looking watch, its nice that its not just another copy or homage. The sailcloth strap you put up really raised the look of it, much better than the tropic look in my opinion. Very nice, sorry that I missed it during the 11/11 sale. I'm going to have to grab one on the next sale. Thanks for another great review. Wishing you and yours a great holiday
Currently available now for roughly the same price I picked it up for:$99USD But I don't see the prices going up any time soon, but they may sell out, that's my only concern
I picked up the orange for 11/11 and wearing it right now actually (I liked the red you got as well, but already have other black divers and the orange is great). Such a good value, my only complaint is the readability of the edge of the internal bezel. I think they could have brought the numerals in a few millimeters and it would have been even better
The watch looks damn more expensive than it actually is. The crystal, the dial and the lume. Damn! P.s especially compared to that Berny compressor diver you reviewed earlier.
Actually this, the Spinnaker Bradner and the Dan Henry 1970 are all been inspired by the same watch, the 1967 Exactus Aquamax. It's a little known watch but, of all the watches that used the original Super Compressor case, it's probably the better looking.

I love this style of watch. Thanks for the review 🙂

@@EscapeWheel Thank you so much, I'm going to jump over and grab one. Thanks again.
I like the ar blue circle it makes
Yeah, looks kind cool on this one
Great review. I saw this watch advertised and it really spoke to me. I will probably make this my next purchase. Thanks. 👍
Glad you liked the review. Very cool watch indeed
I really like those indices and that handset, especially the hour and minute hand. I’d like to see those on some future releases.
I actually bought thos expecting to not like the case and to use the dial/hands in a mod....lol. That's how much I like them

Nice! Definitely getting some interference with the crystal.
Lovely watch, beautiful dial, thanks for highlighting it.
Very nice. Looks great on the sail cloth strap.
Excellent review (and strap choices, especially the sailcloth), Steve.
Looking forward to your next Rdunae (R6 Vintage Diver) review.
Thank you! Unfortunately the R6 is lost. Says it was delivered but it never was 🤷. Working with the post, but it may be a goner.
@@EscapeWheel Oh no! So sorry to hear this.
Very nice review and I really like this watch I'm guessing on the next sale I might have one in my box. Thanks for the review.
Next sale is now! Lol. Get it for the price I did 👍
This is such a good looking watch I just wish it looked good on my 6inch wrist. Thanks for the review!
Lol, thanks for watching, Tom
Nice watch. I seen the prices dropping. I'd like to have the blue 💙
Cool watch! Added to my wish list and I'm waiting for sale. :)
It should be on a sale now for what I paid for it. At least it's showing $98 before taxes
It is the Spinnaker Bradner with different name on it .
And without the beautiful dial I've seen on Bradners.
The watch looks damn more expensive than it actually is. The crystal, the dial and the lume. Damn!
P.s especially compared to that Berny compressor diver you reviewed earlier.
They should do a 39 or forty..... Would need to be thinner.
Agreed. Trimming it down some may lose some depth on that bezel...that's my favorite part! But it would be worth it to trim off 2mm
I don't think it seems big, it fits perfectly on your wrist
Thanks! I can pull it off, but I am just preferring smaller watches these days.
Thank you for the great review, on pretty nice watch.
Thank you for watching! It's appreciated.
Reminds me a bit of the Dan Henry 1970 Diver .
Yup, pretty similar
Looks awesome but just too big 😢
The sad truth. Really wish this was 13mm thick and 39mm in diameter
Is this an original design?
As far as I know, yes. And it's quite a good one.
Its a Spinnaker Bradner without bead of rice bracelet..
@@piansopian4069 damn, even the case is eerily similar. Just the dial and hands appear to be different.
This is the original design i think : Dan Henry 1970 diver, which itself heavily inspired by the vintage stuff.
Actually this, the Spinnaker Bradner and the Dan Henry 1970 are all been inspired by the same watch, the 1967 Exactus Aquamax.
It's a little known watch but, of all the watches that used the original Super Compressor case, it's probably the better looking.
it looks a WHOLE LOT like an older Orient SK Diver.....and it IS a chunky monkey!
