Good format! It would be better to include harsh lighting conditions and see how it looks! Maybe even just outside the house-look

becouse of small crown, owner have to be machinist :)

Would’ve liked to see lume comparison

Hey there! Wanted to ask if you still have the Steinhart Adventure 39. Did you end up keeping it? Or did you sell it? Just curious; I'm interested in rebuying a Metropole 39. Thank you!

A decent watch for the price. Hruodland is famous for their insane texts. Like, recently they released a vintage Rolex explorer homage which looks cool, but instead of 'oyster perpetual' it says 'roasted oyster' on the dial 😂They also have a stainless steel version (and they released it even before VC did, lol), which might be a better choice. The bracelets on these aliexpress mid-tier brands are win or lose. Typically, yeah, additional filing is always needed. I have a VC 2215 homage bt Specht & Söhne, and, surprisingly, it is very decent (but again I had to file the bracelet).

I wish they would make this in the original vintage Vacheron Constantin dimensions. It was like, 30mm diameter iirc.

i think you'll love the tissot seastar 36mm quartz!

Super cool comparison! Chapeau!

Thanks for this video! We have the same wrist size and this video made me realize that the 38mm is too big for me.

Butthole logo 😂😂😂😂. Now I’ll never be able to unsee it!

Not s gada watch with plastic crystal. Tired of the lame "period correct material " argument. Ita junk. Put sapphire in and make it an ACTUAL gada

Hey mate nice video but the audio sounds muffled.

Nice watch and review! I'm posting the Farasute Doctor's watch Review sometime later on today! Very surprised with the quality! Regards

Lorier didn't do this as a cost cutting measure, but they did it intentionally for the clarity, warmth, and vintage aesthetic. Just wanted to emphasize that, but totally understand the comfort of not worrying so much about a sapphire crystal.

I've been looking at this watch for a while, you now have convinced me to get it, thank you. Well done

Wow 36mm watch with 20mm lugs are hard to find. This is lovely.

What a beauty!

Beautiful watch, truly versatile.

A very nice design. But I wish the hands were not so flat, but beveled. That way, you would get more light play, like you get on the indices.

Looks very nice

08:18 Chill bro, my hinge matches are on this app.

Dang this is nice

It's a really nice looking watch, but I wouldn't buy a new watch with an acrylic crystal.

Hey man the algorithm showed me this. Pretty good vid! First time I've seen a Lorier review. Hope you keep making content. Also have a Happy New Year.

This watch is 🔥🔥🔥 but never in stock

This would be perfect in a 33 or 34mm

Are the numbers on the bezel painted white or are they silver

do these two has ghost date? or it's a fixed no date pt5000?

how is it keeping time months later?

For the price this watch is a Great deal. The supplied band is rubbish but a strap swap solves the issue. I have the black one and the fact it's a Seiko quartz is a plus. 2 year battery that can be changed in about two minutes, is better than yet another NH or Miyota movement that will need to be serviced if you plan to keep it long term. The watch with a silicone strap melts on your wrist for great comfort. The finishing is very good and there is enough AR on the crystal to keep it legible in outdoors / indoors with out any glare. For a a hundred bucks this is a no brainier. Bonus If you have a an Erebus ascent either bracelet will also fit. and is Light years better than stock.

Bulova super seville its a great looking watch! but will looks huge on any wrist with those 25mm lugs on the bracelet. and square watches wears always bigger too, so 34 or 36mm. case would be much better imo. that's what stops me to order one

The quality of your video is improving. I would however try to keep the old style of freeflow and some humor in your narration. Watch reviews are so cookie cutter nowadays and any difference is a welcome sight. Just an opinion. Good review.

I'm a huge fan of this brand. This watch unfortunately is discontinued, but there appears to be stock with some resellers. Unfortunately the one I purchased from gave me fake tracking and never delivered, so I had to go back to Ali for a refund, wasting $35 of coupons that were now expired.

And again, alot of untrained eyed in the comment section. The OCTOPUS is OBVIOUSLY better in specs... dont discuss

The reason the case back is deep is that they use this case for quartz and automatic movements. The quartz are thinner and wear very well. These are old stock, hence the old logo on the dial, I think they are around 2 years old from the RUclips reviews. I bought a small seconds ronda 6004 version on the strap for £63 +tax in the last sale, fantastic watch, but I swapped the battery straight away. The edge between the lugs is very sharp just like on a Rolex Oyster case, I smoothed it down with a sharp blade. Nice review.

Have some sound issues with the video. Goes from very loud to faint to no sound. I used the caption.

It have nice dial and hands, not plain like dial A and not to complicated like dial B. But... That myota is low end movement with rotor noise, that clasp with 2 microadjustment and with female lugs is big no. I really hate when crown is not in middle, it's allowed but my ocd fires immediately . Lume is soso. I think there is missed opportunity if they didn't applied lume at all on 05,25,35,55 it be would be better visually and more interesting. Cracken is much better.

Sorry but why is the bracelet an extra $30 more?

Well done in articulating your thoughts on this watch and some of your philosophies in getting a watch. Appreciate that!

A watch like this needs a butterfly clasp. Wrong clasp for a datejust homage.

Id love to see more of these as a feklow slim wristed guy

I would love it if Baltany did a more reserved version with an oyster bracelet.

both jomashop and ashford don't have the 36mm version.

Great video but something is wrong with the audio

Dope to see more fellow small wristlers out here! Subbed

I don't understand why some brands insist on putting butterfly clasps on bracelets. They're more parts, more expensive, impossible to adjust properly, and nobody wants them. Why do they still exist?

Thanks for the review. Lume shot at 1:34 is pretty disappointing for Swiss C3.

Yo 3:35 "as though you just joined a black fraternity" line is wild.🤣🤣

I watched a fair few of these videos comparing the Cronos to the Octopus. And I went with the Cronos for the following reasons... It looks slightly more compact... and a bit more like my preferred Rolex Explorer. It was available with a NH35 movement. Which is a movement I'm familiar with. I don't really like the name 'Octopus' lol. Which might sound strange. I just think it sounds more suitable for a company making 'fun and wacky' watches, than one making serious homage watches. With the Cronos... no issues with it apart from the corners on the clasp. On the second day, I took a small jewellery file to it and rounded off the corners slightly. Which solved that issue. And I also disliked the highly polished surfaces on the side of the case and side of the clasp. So a careful rubbing with some fine glass paper sorted that out.

The octopus looks amazing. You can really tell through the video how good it is but that logo and name are just terrible. If Chinese brands could get the names and logo’s right they would be unstoppable. Also THANK YOU for measuring from the male end links like you should. 90% of reviewers don’t do that and it drives me crazy!
