Mirrly on Time Watch Reviews
Канада
Добавлен 19 окт 2011
I love watches, everything about them, and this is where I unbox and talk about em. On this channel I deal specifically with the budget watch market, for the most part, watches that you can get for up to $300 but occasionally I'll have more expensive pieces in.

Today is sept 9, $83.58 USD.
@@billsomerset238 yep that seems to be the regular price so it may very well drop to under 60 again during one of Ali many sales :) thanks m8
Thanks for the video and your time.. Thinking of getting this watch for my water / fishing / boating activities..... currently have the Casio protrek for my backpacking and Hiking / camping and tho Casio makes a excellent fishing watch with Bluetooth connectivity I was looking for something more traditional looking and made for tides and a basic compass for navigating the inner water line of the Puget Sound area out here in Tacoma Seattle area.... plus Timex is a good old classic😎👍
@@TwitchRadio the tide function isn’t 100 percent accurate as it is based on 12 hr intervals and the tides don’t exactly follow that, however it’s close and you can easily adjust it if necessary. Compass function works great. It’s a great watch overall thanks for watching
Love mine I have the ministry case. But most of my 25 vostoks are 420 case. I got a couple of 120 and 170 also. 120 being the least favorite case.
@@jrbj2000 it’s a bloody fantastic and quirky watch
Case not stainless!? You buried the lede, chief!
@@Area_man115 yeah my fault I didn’t check the specs before buying, can’t recall I still have the watch I think I bought this one on jomashop been a while since I made this one but pretty sure I mentioned in the review
@@MirrlyonTime unsubscribed
@@Area_man115 buried the lead, half way through the video I share my dissapointment about the case being alloy……you buried your brain, adios muchacho
@@MirrlyonTime the term is indeed lede. But you’re not in the writing business or familiar with writing. Halfway through IS burying the lede, since a case that’s only pretending to be steel is crap. Not enough of a disqualifier for you, though, Chief.
@@Area_man115 certainly not because I did mention it m8, move along now and never come back how’s that, upfront enough for ya
I have a snzg15j1 on my wrist for nine years now.. Orginal nylon strap. Never take it of, only to clean it. Some scratches.. but a great watch!
@@andersjohansson3866 9 years! Wow. So how is the movement running? def an awesome watch
@@MirrlyonTime About 1minute per week. Never any troubles. Maybe change gaskets next year. Have never leaked. I swim, sail and paddel kayak with it. It had a slim misalignment of the "chapter ring" . My local watch dealer didn't wanted to touch it. It was "to cheap"... I took it apart and fixed it my self. A good watch for the money.
@@andersjohansson3866 that’s awesome!
Just bought the invicta pro diver 9937 at jomashop and they getting higher every year
The finishing looks very rough. You’re paying for the sunburst dial.😲😜🤔
@@bernardbarroga1497 finishing on the watch is good m8, sunburst dial is great
M , I’ve got 2 of these . The grey which has the misaligned bezel (which rotates ok ) and cyclops , which I bought first . I saw this blue one and a very good price , liked it and based on all the good reviews and despite my original experience , went for it . The blue has perfectly aligned bezel and cyclops , unlike yours but the bezel is much tighter than my grey one so for the reasons you state , is difficult to rotate . It seems that they are knocking them out at such a rate that QC suffers but some of us get lucky . Lume is very good , I’ve never had a PD watch that has a remotely decent lume.
@@ccampbell1117 absolutely correct, pagani design sucks at their lume game it’s the one thing I wish they would listen us and do! I otherwise love the brand. The misaligned bezel on this Steeldive was a surprise I’ve had a few steel dives and have never seen this issue with them yet, but as you say they knock them out so fast that if you buy enough watches from Ali it’s not if but when you will get a qc issue like this, only matter of time (ha see what I did there!) In most cases as with this one the qc issues are mostly forgivable for the price, but I do hate this bezel, the dial helps to take attention away from it though. Thanks for watching
I have way to many watches, but that dial makes me want this one that dial color is my favorite.
@@bluecollarwatches7048 wait for it to come on for 55 again it’s back up by 30 bucks but still a good deal for that, and my understanding is that Steeldive usually has good bezels so I got a dud in that regard
@@bluecollarwatches7048 yeah at 55 sale price this was a great deal even with bezel misalignment which isn’t the norm for Steeldive
@@MirrlyonTime I'm a fan of steeldive/addiesdive
@@bluecollarwatches7048 yes me too
Congrats!🙌🏆 There’s a reason that’s that color has taken the world by storm!👍
@@mauricesoulis1590 yeah its stunning thanks for watching
Beautiful watch, love that dial color, just incredible value for the money
@@CoolWatchesOnly absolutely the sale price of 55 was bonkers, regular price of 84 dollars is still bloody good! Unfortunately mine had that bezel issue but seems to be the exception not the norm for Steeldive so there’s that
Apart from the nice color this piece brings nothing new to the table. So maybe as a summer watch, if I hadn’t already enough.
@@ulig12 that’s true…..I bought it specifically for the colour as well as to finally do a proper comparison to the pagani design. But as you say nothing new to the table here thanks for watching m8
I reviewed this piece a little while ago and it certainly offers great value for money. Great job as ever mate 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime thanks Simon! Remind me, as I can’t recall, any bezel issues with yours?
I have the Steeldive 300M GMT Master. I have taken it snorkeling in the ocean in Japan with no problem. Great Lume (probably better than your subbie) and huge bang for buck! Great review!
@@wingi7722 that’s good to know thanks for sharing that wingi please subscribe as well :)
If i had one dollars a watch would by my least thing i would buy 😅😅😅 Maybe a john mayer daytona 😊
🤣🤣
Great review Chris like usual,I own several pagani design watches so from steeldive ,I have to say that all steeldives are better in overall quality especially at the lume department.can you add a link for the strap of yours pagani design ?
@@seanwidezki hello m8 sure thing, and stay tuned for a video on these straps as well: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_mqTo6uy
@@MirrlyonTime Thanks for the link Chris ,I am waiting for your strap review ,keep the wonderful work you do
I have 2 of both watches and agree the Steeldive is a better watch. I didn't have alignment issues with either one and I find that the cyclops is overmagnified on both, especially when compared to more expensive watches. I plan to keep the Steeldive's and donate the PD's...there is no secondary market for these inexpensive watches. I really like the blue dial on yours...great review!!
@@danschlacks7188 hey Dan! Thanks so much for watching. I started my Ali journey re collecting from there with mostly pagani design and they do make some great incredible dollar for value watches with some common hiccups, particularly I have found their bezels to be wishy washy, they can be good and terrible. This is the first example from Steeldive (or addies dive too) that I have had an issue with the bezel. At end of day, par for the course when buying from aliexpress, most of the qc issues on watches that are sub 100 usd are forgiveable but imo. Thanks for the comment and please subscribe if you haven’t done so yet :)
Thanks for responding...already a subscriber!
Nice job reviewing this piece. For $55 a real value find.
@@TheGearPeddler thanks m8. Unfortunately it appears that the 55 sale price has officially ended and it’s back to the regular price of 84, but still a good deal for this and one can always wait for another sale which is never long in coming on Ali haha
@@MirrlyonTime Still a good deal just not “stupid good “😆.
I am definitely not a Submariner fan. I think they are ugly. They are very good, no doubt. A friend of mine wears his every day and loves it. He has a Rolex of course. BUT I am a sucker for Steeldive and Addiesdive. Great quality for the price! I wonder why they misaligned the bezel on your watch. They aren’t so bad at quality control usually. Chris, you definitely need a light engineering specialist. The contre-jour while filming yourself in this video is really hard to bear. :P 🕐⚙️🍸
Hey pal, thank you I am as well surprised by the misalignment, which is more apt to happen on the PD, and regarding the lighting issue, I am not at home as per my last video with the same intro the lighting in my dad‘s basement where I can film is definitely not ideal after this week it will be back to my normal intro with the green screen effect
@@MirrlyonTime Oh yeah, that explains it. I forgot you were at your dad’s place. :)
It looks like steeldive is making improvement on their homage watches. Like you said, some room for it to be better
For sure seems to be the case for a good number of brands on AliExpress most of the time the issues are forgivable, and in this case of the steel dive for the price completely forgivable even at the regular price, but especially at the sale price this was on for
Nice
Thanks scatter
Holy cow, thats a lot of spec for the price of a cheaper timex quartz. Quality control seem to be the limiting factor in these watches however. If these Chinese factories can offer sapphire crystals and ceramic bezels at this price point, how long before Seiko and some of the other giants have to follow suit? BTW the bezel texture is very much like the Orient Mako, almost useless. Great review as always
@@whit107 that is just the thing the quality control on any piece that you buy from AliExpress is a gamble and the fact that the returns procedure is somewhat of a nightmare speak to the low price. Some of these watches are now on Amazon for the regular price (no Ali sale price) so it is advisable to buy from there because of the seamless return if necessary. I don’t think you will see any of the other brands that you mentioned their watches less expensive because of Ali unless of course they correct the issues mentioned above. Unfortunately, the 55 USD price is now not available. It’s back up to the regular price of around 84 USD.
Ha Chris, never noticed the spelling of the specktrometre, that's golden. Also never really had this click in my head before. But am I am the only guy that likes to fully connect the extra links removed from the bracelet till they form a cycle? There are two more things which are a bit off on this watch. The back of the clasp seems to form a 'thicc' gap to the actual links and there is quite a bit of a color difference between the lume on the hands and that on the indices, which would probably also go some way to explaining the difference in staying power of the lume. On a more subjective matter, I don't know why exactly, but in my eyes the only dial color for a sub (original or 'homage') is the lacquered black. I think this tone of blue, especially if its sunburst, would look a lot nicer on other styles of watches.
That is a good catch regarding the clasp it is a tad sticker then I would like it to be, but on this particular style of watch with the case thickness, I think it isn’t as offputting as it would be on a thinner case sport watch and I do think that they didn’t apply as much loom to the indices and Bezel l markings as they did on the hands which would likely explain the colour difference as I am sure it is the same loom used on both
I find that clasps ride better and lower if you have the adjustment holes in the most rearward position with as many links in the bracelet as possible, preferably centering the clasp. Works well on my smallish wrist.
@@bigriceburner def a great point friend! The scissor clasp on this is a little bit too long which contributes to the bulkiness on the one side of the clasp/bracelet
I’m not a huge Sub fan, but the color on this SD is awesome. And at this price, the SD is the winner all day over the PD. Looking forward to the full comparison!
Yeah, unfortunately, the sale price of 55 USD is no longer available, but I am sure it will come back at another near distance sale. They have sales all of the time. Still a great watch for 84 USD regular price.
$117.34 Canadian dollars
Yep, the watch was on sale for about 85 CAD or 55 USD but it must have just ended. Was 55USD at the time I filmed this
If I got this one in, my wife would take it. Cheers!!!
hahaha, definitely a gorgeous dial on this one, unfortunately a couple of qc issues, but to be expected to be fair
Thanks for the video. Hope your dad has a speedy and trouble free recovery. Cheers!!!
@@BCallum thanks Bill, wasn’t without a scare but dad is doing good now
@@MirrlyonTime Scares are not good. Your dad is in my prayers. Hoping the rest of the process is quick and trouble free!!!
@@BCallum it’s all good now I’ll send you a dm on IG
I have the same in a pepsi version. It seems that Pagani is not very consistent when it comes to build quality. The engraving on mine, which I recently received, is appalling. It's not very precise, it's thick, it sucks... While everything else is of excellent quality, this bezel finish ruins everything. I sold this watch the day after I received it and bought the same one from Steeldive. The extra 30 euros is worth it in my opinion...
@@ericouicestmoimeme you are correct about the build quality for pagani they definitely have issues from time to time esp with bezels. Doing a comparison video very soon on the submariner homage and Steeldive is def the better choice and atm the particular model I’m doing (submariner homage) is the same price for each
Ivy watch very similar to this. There’s not many reviews on it. This was able to help me quite a bit.
@@pacmannomnom89 awesome thanks m8 and please subscribe :)
Hope your dad has a speedy recovery. If you click the link, it’s even cheaper right now at $27 USD. That’s cheap Casio money. 😮 Although this watch is definitely not my cup of tea, it’s a crazy value. Thanks!
@@adk7962 probably one of the many aliexpress sales for that price lol, thanks adk
It looks as cheap as it is but kinda interesting. Diamonds are a girl’s best friend but definitely not mine. :D 🕐⚙️🍸
@@NaNByZero lol nan, honestly it is a good watch for 35 bucks, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality considering the money spent (well seed money from the influencer program). The design cues are the biggest gripes for me, another running seconds hand and that weird 20 min or 20 hour or whatever those number are wrapping around the top of the balance wheel….why? Otherwise it’s pretty darn good for the money, and hey, an in house movement to boot 😝😝
@@MirrlyonTime I just bought a Nomos homage by Seestern for 63 Euros. Sapphire crystal. Decorated movement. No second hack. No diamonds and no additional useless functions. Great watch but I I don’t think I will wear it a lot because it’s not the original. But the value for money is definitely high. Can I recommend buying it? Yes and no. Depends on what you want. And having a diameter of 39 mm it’s definitely too small for you. The long lugs make it appear larger on the wrist.
@@NaNByZero I’ll check it out nan, I’m fine with anything 38mm to 55mm lol
I believe that too that pro diver is a good watch
Sure is! Thanks for watching Ricardo and please subscribe if you haven’t yet :)
You too don't get it! Like I said on other channels, you can load these Chinese junk watches with all the specs you want, it still has a Pagani Design stamped logo on it!!! You're just cheating yourself by buying a Rolex clone because you cannot afford it!!! I once took that route but quickly realised that I don't want to put on a chinese watch with a stupid snorkling guy stamped on it just because it looks like a Rolex. Who are we kidding? And everytime you look at that dial, you know that you're just fooling yourself. You see a brand name is everything, whether you like it or not. If you cannot buy a Rolex, you can for only 200 or 300$, buy yourself a nice Seiko or a Citizen or a G-SHOCK or an Orient... These are brands with heritage, brand recognition and durability that you'd be proud to wear. Stop promoting these watches even if you want to start a channel. It is not good advice.
@@cougarbatterie thanks for sharing your opinion cougar. And when I look at the dial I am not fooling myself, nobody is, I know it’s a homage watch. And just because it is a Chinese brand doesn’t mean that it isn’t a good watch m8, so no one is being kidded here, people know what these watches are and like myself many many people who can’t afford a Rolex are more than happy to own a Chinese homage watch. To your point about buying a citizen or a Seiko, I agree, for example why I won’t buy a San Martin. I’ll spend 100 bucks (or 80usd) on a Chinese homage all day and twice on Sunday before I spend 200 more when that could buy as you say a heritage piece. So don’t presume what I or anyone else is feeling (kidding ourselves) when we wear these watches, I am a proud owner of many homage pieces of watches that I cannot afford.
@@MirrlyonTime Sorry my friend, a person who buys basically a copy and paste of a Rolex or an Omega is fooling himself, even if he knows that it is a homage watch. If these Chinese watches weren't a homage to iconic brands, would you still buy them? Of course not! You just want the looks of a Rolex without paying the hefty price. If this is not cheating on yourself, what is it then? And for God sake, don't ever compare the quality of an addiesdive dive to a Seiko that makes watches since 1881. You're just being ridiculous.
@@cougarbatterie now who is being ridiculous. Just because a company has been making watches since 1881 or whatever doesn’t make them a better watch, a brand yes a watch no. San Martin watches are fantastic and offer far better value for dollar spec wise than a 200 dollar Seiko. And the answer to your question, would I buy an 80 dollar watch from aliexpress if it didn’t look like a Rolex, is yes, since they make good watches for the money. Move on and troll someone else m8, I believe the term used to describe you is watch snob, and you’re a big one
@@MirrlyonTime Listen how pathetic you are: did you just say that a company that makes watches since 1881, doesn't mean that they make better watches then a 5 year old Chinese brand that buys Miyota movement from the Japanese and copy great brands with zero innovation! Did you just say that?!!!😂😂😂 Yep, you're a hopeless case!
@@cougarbatterie You have a very strong opinion on the matter. And that is fine. Hell, in some ways I agree with you. A company making watches for 100+ years adds something to the design and choices that go into making a watch. There is nothing better than having a model line for 50 years that you keep making small adjustments to in the pursuit of improving the core concept behind the watch. However, that does not always equate to an objectively superior end product. Would I still prefer the heritage over the potentially marginally better components? Personally, yes, absolutely yes. But that is a personal opinion, based on my values. Just like yours is your own personal taste and opinion. Others might have a different opinion that is equally valid (or invalid) from an objective stance. You should also consider the fact that you are interacting with a guy that is doing videos as a passion project to reflect what he likes about collecting watches. He is not obligated to cater to anyone else's tastes than his own. Be respectful or move along.
I bought an Olevs diver just for kicks one day and man did it surprise me. The dial was beautiful and although the case was plated really well and the bezel even lined up. Although this style is not for me I would certainly buy another model.
Thanks johan I was surprised by the quality considering the price as well Good to hear that I wasn’t the only one thanks m8
I've seen this brand pop up before I was tempted to get one but never pulled the trigger. It looks decent and speedy recovery to your dad
Thanks 62 appreciate it m8
I rarely come across a watch, that doesnt have at least some nice features - bit this is such a watch. The amount of BS from the watch company is mind boggling...
Thanks Flemming, I wouldn’t go as far to say that this watch has no nice features, I do like it, but yeah some of the advertising on the aliexpress store for this one is, well, I would say quite hilarious, a joke, but they don’t seem to be kidding haha
Thank you for the video but is not my kind of watch.
@@adrianfernandonoya5196 totally understand Adrian! Thanks anyways m8
You said Olev's. I'm out. Unsubscribe.
Lol, bye bye
At this price definitely not their own in-house movement (would cost too much to create and produce for just this brand) probably a standard inexpensive Chinese automatic movement. I would also guess an alloy case ....you can scratch under the inside of one of the lugs to check and see.
Hey Karl! Not an in house movement, are you kidding me, they told me it was tripple A hahaha. Yeah, I tried to get information on where it was manufactured and some basic specs for it, model, vph, power reserve etc, but you heard the interaction with the owner if you got that far. All in all though I think it's a good watch for 35 bucks. Not going to scratch the lug, this will be a giveaway watch, either on the channel or to someone out there I meet that needs a watch to wear :)
@@MirrlyonTime yeah sounded like he was careful what he said and was being vague on purpose. I did start this comment before the end of the video (bad habit) but did watch the whole thing. I understand about not scratching it - only mentioned it because I saw another RUclipsr do it once to check the reliability of a stores specs and they caught that they weren't being truthful.
@@karlsenula9495 it definitely feels like a plated alloy case, just doesn’t have the heft that a solid steel watch would have.
My thanks to the #aliexpressinfluencerprogram for the opportunity to highlight this watch on my channel. You can purchase the watch here: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_mNFxuQC of course please give the video a thumbs up, I would appreciate you subscribing as well :)
Speedy recovery for your dad Chris. Regarding the watch... oh boy... Let me just say, not a fan. The interaction you had with the store owner is very much in line with the thought that was put into the design of this ... thing. It might be a copy of some very complicated watch, maybe a Vacheron. That might go to explain some of the subdials and markings. The 12 o'clock subdial for instance would make sense for a second time-zone overlayed on a moonphase. The 9 o'clock register would probably be part of a chronograph, repsectively the minute register with the central seconds being tied to the chrono. That would probably mean that the watch would be a tourbillion, and the 0 to 20 markings above it would be for the running seconds. That is the first thing that comes to mind that would explain that layout. Maybe an older Vacheron, but no clue.
Hey Andre! Yeah hill billy luxury featured a soemwhat similar watch on his channel by Sturhling original, which do homage pieces, and the complication on the 9 oclock on that example ran a second analog time, when you pull the crown to position one and scroll the crown counter clockwise it sets the hour and minute hand for the subdial, clockwise to set the time on the main face, which was very cool. This example by Olevs probably featured some complications from another known watch (I was wondering if it was Patek) but makes no sense to me to add these features if they aren't working or redundant in the case of the small seconds hand. I wonder if an hour and minute hand could have gone on that subdial as the pinion on it is large enough it appears to be able to have more hands.....who knows. Overall I think it's not a bad offering for 35 bucks. Now to email you a story....
I have 3 casio watches, like them all and if I break one I won’t be super upset. I’ve toned down my buying I have way to many watches.
@@bluecollarwatches7048 I hear ya blue!!
I have the Pagani PD1718 Reverse Panda and I totally agree it is the better choice in every way, in this case.
@@yellowblue2479 I couldn’t agree more. San martin is a great watch but I’ve always felt not worth the extra 300 bucks as in this case. If only Pagani would start to make their lume great they would be stellar. Steeldive and addies dive are doing good things too
Best opening title i have heard so far on any youtube channel.Reminds of 80's martial arts movies :) Besides i like timex watches, too!On top of it i own one timex expedition ranger solar and about to by my next timex watch.
@@andyoclover thank you and awesome what one are you picking up? Love me a Timex!! You should check out one of my latest vids on the perfect three watch Timex collection from Walmart :) and please subscribe thanks m8
@@MirrlyonTime Im thinking of allied lt with offset crown because of offset crown.Hard to pick one!I want all of them :)
@@andyoclover haha yeah a good problem…:solution, get them all! Ur welcome 😆😆
Well done review. I just received my Lige in the same colors but on a very comfortable rubber strap for $18 CDN, a wonderful bargain. As far as I can tell, this is the only quartz homage to the Seamaster on Aliexpress. The textured dial is amazing. The lume is not so amazing, but I wear a Timex Indiglo at night so it doesn't matter much to me. The case is (I believe) chrome plated brass with a stainless steel back, very similar to most Timex watches. Love the large handset and the aluminum bezel is beautiful. The orange second hand hits most of the indices. The chrome rehaut is a really nice touch, the mirror reflection adds depth to the dial. I have many other nice and somewhat more expensive watches, and this is the first in a long time that my wife noticed and complimented. Definitely a watch that punches way above its price point.
@@RonsTremoloHarmonica-lh4fq thanks for watching, I agree with you 100 it’s a great watch for the money! Appreciate your feedback Ron; God bless m8 and please subscribe
I miss the 80's and 90's they truly were the best decades.
