It is an inexpensive beater watch! Steeldive is great if you don’t want to wear your nice ones to work and destroy it or have it stolen off of your wrist.

Thanks! All of mine were violated (twice now) so I burnt all of them now! Some people need boundaries!

Just had one delivered to Chicago for $63.00. Could not be happier. Keeps time and looks great. I will save my money for paying bills.

Great watch! 😊🙏

He's wearing a Casio. Casio makes the MDV 106 Duro. The same Rolex Submariner "homage" (I own two). I have a Steeldive Willard. The Steeldive SD1953 is going to me my next Christmas present to myself. I am not ashamed.

If you bought a Rolex Sub you are a Stup MF

It's Robert Palmer! I bought the 'Water Ghost' version with the black bezel. For me it makes the watch less of a homage and more of it's own thang. Build, allied to the NH35 movement and the ridiculously low price make it a winner. The fact that it is so cheap actually puts some people off. Buy one, infact buy any of the Steeldives you fancy, just check the movement, also check out Addiesdive for other models.

Love my Steeldive (happy you do, too). Love the design and feel. I don't think this is costume jewelry. In my humble opinion, it is a great watch that has the same design (they want to make money like Rolex does when Rolex created the "aura" around...A WATCH). Aaaaand I will never own a Rolex Submariner. Got better things to do with $10K+. Not dissin' your video (which I enjoyed), just sayin'. P.S. I asked another watch reviewer if he thought it was indeed water resistant. He said he took it 250 meters at Los Cabos. Still running strong.

I bought one. It's real nice. Lume lasts all night. Time spot on. Worth the $60 for sure

Crazy lume!

Got mine for $55 out the door.

How does it feel one year later having decluttered the letters, journal? I apologize if i missed an update on this situation.

Was this supposed to be a review or a chance to shit on Chinese watches while wearing a Chinese made digital watch? My gmt and daydate are nice, but I ordered 3 Steeldives in different colors to give them a look. The company states this watch has a reputable Seiko Nh35a movement, real sapphire with ar coating, and bgw9 super luminova on the bezel and hands as well as markers. The bracelet doesn't seem to be the best, but upgraded replacements are always available. So, thanks for stating the obvious, and Im sure we all appreciate you buying the watch and making a video for a quick laugh, but we're all very aware that the watch looks like a Rolex sub and comes from China. I clicked on your video to see another review before receiving them, not to watch a disrespectful commentary. Happy collecting.

That case is more unto a deepsea sub. How heavy is that thing on the wrist.

Hey! We met at CBP a couple of weeks ago. Nice channel!

Stop waving your arm

I honestly feel uncomfortable wearing this outside. Whenever i hold something, like a water bottle or something close to my face so the watch becomes more in «eye sight» to other people - people STARE like crazy. From a few meters away, this cheapy little thing would totally pass as a Rolex unless the person looking at it knows their shit about watches. So, imagine wearing an actual Rolex… No wonder people keep them in vaults 24/7 after buying them.

I put in the search tool "what do I do with all my journals before I die" and this popped up. My shredder died shortly after I "medically retired" so into the firepit went 8 years of journals. I was soooo tired of them taking up space in my Campervan 😂 I'll retrieve the rest of them when I go to my storage unit next time. I do not want to leave a mess for my son to clean up when I'm gone. I know he'll keep my cat and my money 😂😂😂 ETA: Any advice on what to do with highschool yearbooks?

you a hater bro, making a video to excuse you wearing a chinese watch

What is the scam? The copy or the original? Suppose the production cost of the Steeldive were half (I'm sure it will be even less), if it had the quality of finishing of a Rolex perhaps the production cost would be equal to the retail price. So why should you pay $10,000 for a Rolex? Is the crown badge worth $9,900? I think the Chinese are making us understand that we pay too much for intangible things like brand prestige, when the product is actually worth much less. Certainly the advantage of the Chinese industry is labor exploitation, but even if that did not happen, and we had to pay for their copies at triple the price, it would still invite us to rethink our relationship with brands. Paradoxically, a communist country is "democratizing luxury." Welcome Steeldive. I find many reviews in which dogmatism is put forward to criticize this type of commercial phenomena. But surely many Rolex lovers have obtained one of these Chinese examples as a "stunt performer". A lot of hypocrisy...

Snobs who try to make themselves sound knowledgeable and cultured are laughable and not worth any respect. FO. Rolex is the ripoff here. They charge far, far, far more than they are worth.

Im doing the same as well.

"It works, it's been keeping excellent time, it's solid, it feels great, the bezel is cool, it's got incredible lume" ~Steeldive v2 $69 online "It works, it's been keeping excellent time, it's solid, it feels great, the bezel is cool, it's got incredible lume" ~Rolex $15000

All of the chinese brands are made by the exact same factory , maybe some of the models are exclusively made for one brand like san martin, but they are esentially the same watch

But Tudor isn't a costume jewelry knock-off though? Aren't they ripping off Rolex, too? Funny how a name brand makes it ok??? You have no clue.

Hello, thank you for your presentation, obviously it has nothing to do with a Rolex I admit I don't understand the comparison even from afar, it says steeldive. On the other hand, I would have liked to understand the general quality of this inexpensive little watch with a nice look, starting with the quality of the assembly of the NH35 and the water resistance... probably a few meters to allow water sport or not.. .

The Magnification on the Cyclops is just too much. It ruins the Balance.

My wife and I got Rolexes for our anniversary. She seemingly has no problem going out while covered in literally tens of thousands of dollars worth of “stuff”, from earrings to handbag, whereas I feel awkward wearing a thousand dollar watch, let alone a ten thousand dollar watch. I’m always hyper conscious of getting it damaged, dirty, or stolen. I love how the watch feels and looks but I have no desire to display wealth or status, so I can’t wrap my head around just hanging something of such value out in the open like that. If I can still enjoy everything I like about the Submariner without the worry, sign me up.

I don't get your point of the rambling. When was the last time you got such good value from anywhere for anything? It's a well crafted case containing a robust NH35 movement for $100 - it'd be at least $500+ if it was Seiko branded. As for "homage", the Swiss do it too, if you're unfamiliar with the hype surrounding the Snoopy MoonSwatch which is a piece of plastic junk that's trading at 4X MSRP.

To be honest I feel safer it saying Steeldive on mine.

Man, the only crime I see here is Rolex charging $15k for one of these when these homages are exposing it costs 100x less to make them 😂

I’m reading through all my old diaries now, I’d be mortified if my children read them. I’m liking the process of reading through one, reminiscing then burning it. Very cleansing

Hello, I have a Rolex 16610, 2005. I also have a Steeldive 1953, it cost £40, free postage and arrived in the UK within a week. It keeps great time. I wear it when I am doing jobs where it might get damaged. Ged.

Thanks Tim! I really do enjoy all the fun! Thanks for the shout out in the “Strehmmm”

Thank you for the promo! Glad you been enjoying the shows 😅

It is what it is.

we need an update

Great Video and Comment ! Is this the Pan Am Shuttle ? Can you get the watch in Titanium (Ti) ? Also for the movie Pan Am gave out Reservations for the Pan Am Shuttle for PR ! ! ! tjl

Not a rip off after all that time. Who cares? Most people don’t care or don’t know.

Surely the Rip Off is that Rolex get away with 10k dollars for their Blancpain 50 fathoms copy.

Good God we know it’s a rip off. What else is it? You say will you get what you get well what do you get? You never say. What kind of crystal? What’s the movement? Are you answer No questions in this video.

Thing is that people who can only dream about wearing a Rolex can own something that performs at say 85% of one for , as you say $100 . That’s never going to affect Rolex sales because most people who can afford them wouldn’t be seen dead wearing a Steeldive , it means that the dreamers can look at their wrist and enjoy their $100 investment and maybe buy something similar when the have save up.

Its better than a Rolex. I can wear it everyday everywhere. My Swiss watches remain in the drawer most of the time. I don't want to get killed for a stupid watch.

What’s the difference between the steeldive 1953 and a Rolex submariner apart from the price and bragging rights?

You win first prize for most inane homage watch review in the 21st century. Congratulations!

Man you killed me at 3:58 ... 😂😂👍

It's in no way a rip off of the 1980's submariner. The 5-digit reference subs were much smaller, had hollow end links, aluminium bezels. It's a homage of the current 126610 41mm submariner but with superior fully lumed bezel (objectively superior functionality - looks are subjective), and a 20mm lug (as apposed to Rolex 21mm), which you'll find of 99% of enthusiasts prefer since 20mm straps are waaay more common. The things said in this video can only be explained by the Dunning-Kruger effect.

It's funny just how many Rolex Submariner owners are buying Steeldives because they don't want to wear their expensive timepieces for fear of damage, theft and personal harm, and then end up thinking - WTF do I want this Rolex if it's just sitting in a box and I never wear it, then they end up selling the Rolex. It's hilarious and I support it fully.
