JDM Watch Mania
Австралия
Добавлен 24 дек 2024
I love JDM Watches! This all started a few years ago when I was interviewed and then rejected by a Rolex authorized dealer to buy a watch despite me having the cash (and arguably the status). After an angry foray into reps, I embarked upon the rabbit hole that is Japanese Domestic Market only watches. They save the best for Japan!

Seiko SBTM323 with AliExpress Clasp Upgrade - Simple Versatile Design

This watch is nearly perfect but in typical Seiko style, a few things let it down. Bracelet and end links are a low point. Thankfully, the latter is not too hard to correct. The style is conservative but classy.

This one is a great allrounder. No-one will ever know what it is but it can do it all!
Casio Oceanus OCW-T200. The watch that started it all for me! One year review.

What a watch. This got me into JDM watches and ever since, I've been addicted. So much to this watch. Although every watch has it's inevitable negatives, in my opinion the positives far outweigh any cons.
Fantastic watch! I have the 58A, it looks extremely similar. I love the bracelet too, but I ended up switching it out for a leather strap because I tend to get wrist pain from bracelets sadly.
Thanks for watching. Many of the AQ1000's sold on Japanese sites are in fact the 66A though they are labelled 58A. I believe the 58A has no lume and the 66A has luminous markers and hands.
@@JDMWatchMania Right, and the power reserve indicator is basically "rotated" compared to the 66A. By the way, I just came across an interesting watch, which I am considering buying. I thought I'd share it with you in case you have not yet heard about it. It belongs to the Seiko astron line, and is titanium. It is also solar, and has a perpetual calendar, like "The Citizen" watches do. It is the SBXY-029 (or the 033 in black, which is maybe even better?). Maybe a "Baby" "The Citizen" haha?
Thank you for starting this channel! I am pretty obsessed with JDM watches, so I wish you the best of luck, and looking forward to the content you’ll make! This watch in particular has piqued my interest. I am considering getting it as a present for a family member. If you are able to create a short clip of this watch with a leather strap, I would be very interested in seeing that.
Thanks for watching. I'll try to get round to posting a short clip with a leather strap soon!
@ Thanks very much!
@@JDMWatchMania Thank you! I ended up ordering the SBTH011 in the end. Functionality-wise it is less advanced since it is not solar, nor does it have a perpetual calendar. That being said, it is considerably cheaper, which is good because the person I am gifting it to would probably get mad if they found out I bought anything else than a sub 300 dollar watch. Also the dial looks incredible on the very few videos I found about it, so I am looking forward to receiving it in a few weeks. It is a new model, released in November of last year in Japan.
Can you please share the AliExpress link where you bought the clasp?
Was on Ebay actually. This link may not work: www.ebay.com.au/itm/195951268247?var=495799675659 Alternatively, just try searching for Watch Buckle Fold Safety Milled Clasp Replacement Stainless Steel Watchband M5T1
Thanks for the review. The case size is 39.5mm, can you mention what is the dial size to see if it will wear big or small
Thanks for watching. I measure the dial size at 33mm. I would say it wears true to size or if anything, slightly smaller with the negative endlinks.
@ Cheers
One of my friend has one. Nice looking watch, looks more expensive than it is. I wouldn't buy it to be honest, date window is disturbing. I would go for Vaer solar diver, I like rotating bezel. Also I have Casio AQ - 230 for 80s look. Casio is great walue for money, I had Rolex Submariner and Grand Seiko 9F before, sold them with good profit. My next expensive watch definitely will be some Asian microbrand not legacy brand as Omega or Rolex. P.S. Great video, I wish you more subs! :)
Prezzo??
