OK, so my demolition job was not entirely successful. Which is a good thng, when you thnk about it! Cracking value diver this one, and don;t be worried about the size, it wears much better than you might think. Cheers, Jody
I have been wearing one of these as my daily since December. The lume is great and the watch is rock solid, it gets bashed around on an industrial site and there is no sign of scratches at all on the ceramic bezel or the sapphire. I have swapped it to a milled clasp and it's much nicer. Holds time much more accurately than my seiko samurai.
These are really impressive pieces. I've had mine for almost a year now. I got it with the engineer style bracelet though. Once you switch out the clasp for a milled one it's great.
Hey mate! Hope you are well.
@@JustOneMoreWatch Yeah I'm good. Thanks. I see you're gearing up to release your second watch very soon. Things are obviously going well.
How is the accuracy on it?
@@theduck7940 It should be decent. It is an NH35A after all.
can I just add oring to the last thread of the crown, I'm worried about the crown leaking water into the movement@@JustOneMoreWatch
Now I need one. My wife is banning me from watching JOMW 😮
😂😂😂😂😂
Channel has a great name. This is going in the cart for me too.
Private browsing is not just a new army recruit.
Actually I used my wife checking my browser history to my advantage.....after she complained about the watch viewing I pre-emptively filled the history with gay porn and after she checked again she was like "buy what ever watches your like"
😂
My wife wants a Mercedes ... She is saying SURE buy another AliExpress watch buuuuuuut ... Oh oh
Amen to that brother 😊
Genuinely crazy value. They’re doing what seiko can’t at 5 times the price
May I ask if it's a proper ISO-rated diver's 1000m?
@@Jelloc I highly doubt it
@@Jelloc if the F-91W can survive a dive, you can bet this one will also.
Yup, my seiko watch failed me the last time i was half a mile underwater and i wanted to know what time it was back on the surface of the earth.
@@traviswalker8933 some ali express watches have been known to just slap on random water resistance figures so the concern is warranted
I wish if they could change that funky logo to a more toned down one.
You may be able to get it No Logo. That's how I got my Willard
Ppq@@bignz721
Just like every other watch that you'll ever own, after you've been wearing it awhile, you don't even notice the logo anymore. The logo's not great but it's certainly not bad enough to moan about and only a fool would decide not to get this watch just because of the logo.
To open this watch : on top, screw off *_*clockwise*_* the glass with a silicon ball.
Looks pretty good. Somewhere between a Seiko Tuna and those Seiko 5 "Bottle Cap" divers (like a shroudless tuna) from at least 4 years ago. If you like this style, not too shabby for under $100.
It is a direct homage of the Halios Puck.
I received it yesterday, not bad at all. It only took 11 days from time of order to receiving it in Canada. I have to say Jody, you didn't exaggerate the value of this watch. I would say that this watch even matches the value of the previously untouchable Pagani PD-1639.
This Addiesdive MY-H6 (that's apparently the model number) has the brightest lume that I have ever seen firsthand. I swear that the first time I looked at it in a dark room after hitting it with the good old UV flashlight, it was like a spiritual experience. I was just in awe at how bright this watch is when its lume is charged and just how quickly it gets charged. This watch is so bright that it even puts my previous champion, my Tissot Seastar 2000 to shame.
The bracelet is a bit "meh" but comfortable enough that I don't feel the need to change it so that's a good thing. I like "good" but I'm quite happy with "good enough" and that's what this bracelet is. I honestly never thought that I'd like the look of this watch as much as I do as I'm not a fan of the Seiko Tuna but, as it turns out, if it looks like a hockey puck, a Canadian is going to like it!
This is most definitely one of the best watch purchases that I've ever made and I have you to thank for it Jody because without you, I never would've known that it exists. I tip my hat to you sir and I would recommend to anyone that if you can pull off a 46mm dial with buried lugs, don't wait and buy this watch. You won't ever regret it!
How much in CDN dollars?
@@9_nein_9 I don't remember exactly so I'll check my purchase history...
Total:C$128.73
That's what I paid for my blue Addiesdive MY-H6. Now it's $134CAD.
I bought one of these in the March sale. £62 including tax. Unbelievable value for money. Honestly wears smaller than expected. Bracelet is indeed rubbish but now on a fkm rubber isofrane. Much better.
Re movement removal, it comes out of the front. Need one of those rubber ball back removers. Unscrews clockwise after removing the screws. Bezel and crystal are in one piece with rubber seal.
Lume is great and I’m surprised at how much I like this watch.
I have the watchdive version and I love how it looks and feels on the wrist. Three years in and it has taken a beating and still looks great
I can clear up a couple things from this review. For one the watch is an homage of a Halios Puck. And in order to remove the movement, it comes out through the crystal side. You take a caseback ball and turn the crystal clockwise and the crystal and bezel come off and then the movement can come out.
Ooooo, a screw in crystal? Never even heard of thatbefore. I'll give it a go. Cheers!
@@JustOneMoreWatch TheTimeKeeper has a mod video on it that shows the removal process. Looking forward to the next Erebus btw. Still enjoying my Origin! Cheers from Texas.
Got mine yesterday for ~USD70 love it! wears really well, everything lines up, lume is great!,.....if 1000m is really important to someone you can hydro-mod it with a low viscosity oil to ensure that it will have a better depth rating that a privately owned submarine (cheaper too👍). Looking beyond the 1000m tag look at all the quality your getting at that price point. If ever I'm 1000m under the ocean and it fails rest assured I will send addiesdive a very nasty email.
Can't hydro mod a mechanical watch!!
@@Zanpaa not done it myself but done itquartz watches. I understand that the oil provides additional friction and load to the mechanism but if the viscosity is low enough it should work......anyway I'll let you know if it works
Just ordered one. With the sale it was under $64. Thanks for the heads up on what looks to be a fun watch.
Great review as always. I just paid £52 including tax after watching this gem for 6 months. My 2nd Addiesdive.
Great watch...as long as you're not wearing it. Mine was great for about 2 months, the the indices started popping loose. It now has indices rattling around the dial. My opinion: save your money and get a better watch.
Most likely, to remove the movement after the bezel comes off, you actually need to blow out the crystal with compressed air through the crown tube. Crystal blows out, movement & dial drop out the front. And it's hard to put back together for the same reason - the crystal presses in after the dial and hands.
Wow. Yeah, I'm glad I stopped when I did. Wasn't getting anywhere.
See my comment above how to remove it, no need for air. Just take a sticky caseback ball and rotate the crystal clockwise (as opposed to caseback which is CCW). It will take off the whole bezel assembly + crystal with it. @@JustOneMoreWatch
If the helium escape valve is working this trick will not do anything.
I’ve owned this watch for about three weeks. I’m very impressed with ever aspect of the watch, from the sapphire crystal to the outstanding lume. Unbelievable value for the dollar.
The dial can be accessed once the bezel insert is removed. There is a spring retention to the bezel itself and a screwed on crystal. You can easily remove the whole assembly if you take a sticky ball and rotate crystal clockwise (caseback is CCW). It's rather easy. This watch itself is amazing as a base for modding, I sandblasted mine and changed the dial + hands.
Hi. I would like to mod this as well. Do you remove the bezel by unscrewing those tiny screws on the bezel? Then use a sticky ball to unscrew the crystal? I saw a vid of someone unscrewing both the crystal and bezel together, but that was the Steeldive version of the puck. Thanks in advance for any insights!
No, don't bother with those screws, they aren't connected to anything.
Just use the ball and turn crystal RIGHT (clockwise). Make sure it's grippy (wash the caseback ball with detergent beforehand). Also leave the strap on as you will have a better grip on the watch itself. It's rather straightforward.
You can even tighten the wire inside for the bezel to have a more solid click.
@@Incursorious can I just add oring to the last thread if the crown to make better seal?
Thank you Jody. Terrific recommendation. Mine arrived in the mail today and it's everything you said it would be. I put mine on a spare leather strap and love it. Outstanding value all around. A winner!
Doood - much better lighting now than the aquarium setup 👌! The 2 candles in the backdrop give me some Advent vibes in Spring - but hey, it's Xmas on Ali all year long, I guess 😅
I am impressed with what they have done. My sweet spot for a dive watch is 39 mm, 40 if it wears small. A smaller version is what I am hoping for.
That's pretty good if true! I remember seeing a 1000m Cronos watch being tested and it didn't stop until it hit 3000m on that hydraulic press channel! More impressive was that as soon as they released the pressure the watch started ticking again ! I do scuba dive, however if I ever find myself as deep as 1000m, you can be sure I'm not coming back up to tell anyone if the watch leaked or not 😂 But no seal on the crown could well mean it will leak at 50m.
there is youtube showing how to open the front. rubber ball, anti clockwise turn the front, put some pressure and strength and it will unscrew itself
I bought a no-logo version of this watch three years ago and love it. As others have said by now, it's an homage of a Halios hockey-puck watch that must have been a popular microbrand model when the Addiesdive xerox machines first went into action designing it. The bezel action was wonky -- either too loose or too tight -- and after some googling I found that to get it off you had to unscrew the crystal with a rubber ball. After doing this and trying to manipulate the tension ring to achieve perfection, it turned out worse than before. So I gave up and try not to think about it. I just look at the thing. It has a certain platonic perfection to it -- the ideal watch.
I purchased this watch right after seeing your review. It's a bad habit...I know. Anyway, for some reason, it was about 65USD. That sealed the deal. Now that I have it, I think it is every bit as amazing as you described. Sure, it's huge. TBH, you hardly notice due to the lug-to-lug distance. I also ditched the bracelet, replacing it with the resin strap left over from my Casio Duro. Fits like a glove and looks great. The lume...oh my, the lume...bright and easily lasts all night. I could easily read the time after eight hours in the rack. I don't have many watches capable of that. Been wearing it non-stop since it arrived. Great review and great recommendation.
Great videos!!
Very helpful review thanks. The top bezel and glass have to be unscrewed just like the back case as one unit for that "Puck" model if I'm not mistaken. Get one of those rubber balls. I seem to recall another youtuber doing it successfully that way.
Bought two, one for my father and one for me. Using Jodi´s link. Today is at 64 USD
I bought this right before the sale on a SuperDeal and it's already one of my favorite watches already. Just a silly great deal for something very well constructed.
Great homage to the Halios Puck! I was able to get mine for $68 all in during the anniversary sale. As stated in the review, the bracelet is just ok --I swapped mine out for a tropic rubber. Perfect!
The lume is really impressive.
Now I want the blue version too LOL!
I saw it but missed this insane 68 bucks deal 😭
But as my Halios Puck 1.0 needs a repair this could be a nice temporary replacement.
So timely that I viewed this video today, since I'm wearing the same watch. Love this piece. It's tough, solid, good looking, great lume, and an all around great daily beater. Thanks for reviewing it and bringing attention to a quality watch at an impressive price. I can't wait until the day that I visit Captaiin Nemo and test it's water resistance bone fides.
Came for some watch content in the background, now i am considering buying it😅
Jody, thanks for introducing us to this magnificent piece! You sir, are a legend.
I just picked up a blue one. It was more than that specially-priced one you got but the only watch I own with a black dial is my Lunar Pilot and that's only because of authenticity. For the most part, I find watches with black dials to be terribly boring and I always prefer blue if it's available. Still a great deal on a 46mm watch (which means it's not too small for me) with a depth rating of 1km.
I picked up an Addiesdive Willard last year. It's damn fine looking, quality and with massive lume, and sapphire. I was surprised by the quality, especially for the price. I wear it as a beater for work, trading off with a GW6900 and a DW5610.
First, never sleep on the Addies/steel dive lume.
Second, I know Sub homages are played out, but the Addies quartz sub for about $35 is great.
Pretty incredible really
Got one myself for under £50, running at -20 a day (not yet regulated), a bit of backplay on the bezel. And the pin on the safety clasp lock snapped off and I haven't even worn it yet.... But still worth it.
I have just ordered one from your link, I already have an MWC Depthmaster which I love, but at this price I had to order it. Remember guys, if the wife ever says “is that a new watch you’re wearing” your response is “what this old thing, no I’ve had this for years”.
You should get your hands on an Oceaneva. 1,623M depth tested, Titanium case and bracelet - just over $349 with coupon code.
Make it a diver's 200M -- so a bit thinner -- and it's a winner for my wrist. Great lume and I like the all-lumed second hand, nice! Very legible overall, too. Thanks for the review.
I got one of these when they were called Steeldive, which is a nicer brand name in my opinion. It's a great conversation starter and is extremely well put together. The only downside is that pressed clasp. Maybe time to mod it!
I grabbed me one during the last sale , $109aud .
All my watch mates are impressed with it's build and quality of build .
Bezel action is amongst the best of all my watches , it's a great watch !
Currently shopping to build a Tuna but i might just buy one of these and change the dial
I really like that, defo look better on the rubber, very surprised such a big diameter actually sits fine.
Love this in a review. Taking it apart to discover and assess if it is the real deal.
Impressive! Be aware that there are less expensive Barton silicone elitestrap cloans on Amazon and possibly other sites. I bought at least one so far and except for branding and other color choices, they seem to be identical.
This could be the standardized divers watch for every serious scubadiver !
😂
I was actually wearing this when you released the video. Got it a few months back for laughs, but for the money its great . The lumed second hand seema to be a mew feature, cos mine from a year ago doesnt have it. Nevertheless, this is a chonker of a watch - a direct homage of the Halios Puck (which they don't make anymore so all bets are off). I really wish the hydraulic press channel would take a crack at it.
Please review for tornado watches specially for Tornado Autonova
I bought the San Martin with the sw200 movement a few years back. It’s a monocoque case that doesn’t open from the rear at all but is even thicker I think.
I have it on an Italian rubber strap in red to contrast the blue.
If only it was a bit thinner.
Love the new studio: looks like a PBS broadcast (in a good way). 👍
Love it! .... This will scratch my Oris Aquis itch.
halios puck too
Even if it can go that deep it would mess with time keeping like Seiko discovered with the tuna and decided to go with quartz
I had bought it before the review, I wear it daily, heavy but I like it...
I got it because it looked nice, large and had good readability, don't really care if 1000m is real. 57 eur on new year sale, one of the best ali deals.
Addiesdive/ Steeldive 1000m vs Tuna 300 m vs Captain Willard….What is the best ? Thanks
I have an Addiesdive myself, fantastic for the cash, but - if you're going to need that much water resistance, you aren't going to spend less than $100.
I really like the part in the intro where Jody States the maximum pressure of his testing machine in a way that it can be heard as "6ATM" or "680m". It's a good thing I knew what machine he was talking about or I might still be wondering. 😅
Great review as always. Unfortunately I won't be buying this one as I bought two o🪠Origins and I'm tapped out for the moment. 😳
I have the Steeldive branded blue version and I think it is a handsome watch. Very easy to wear.
Great review
Jody I bought the Cronos 1000m/3000m & it’s awesome. BUT! The same movement & at $85 USD compared to the Cronos at around $213 USD, the Addiesdive is an absolute bargain! I put my Cronos immediately on a rubber strap as I kept going around in circles with the weight!😆
Handsome watch and it's a great deal for that price.
Could be good in the dash panel of a vintage car.......
It's an homage of the Halios Puck.
Good value.
A smaller, thinner version with 200 meters of water resistance & no helium escape valve would be interesting.
Tauchmeister watches are also cool and not that expensive with 1000m water resistance, I have one and it's pretty cool even took it for a few freedivng sessions no problems
How do they make a profit ?
this is actually very similar to the Halios Puck 1 watch out of Vancouver. I have one. It’s 47mm.
Great value piece, and not unnattractive
Good value for sure. Funny opening it may jeopardize the water proofing now, would have been good to take it somewhere and pressure test it to see how it actually held up! Cool vid
Is it a homage of the Seiko bottle cap?
How is the lug to lug 40mm with the case being 46mm,
The fact the end links fold in a little doesn’t subtract from the case diameter once it is on the wrist.
🤷🏻♂️
Got their Tuna with a champagne dial a bit ago, bracelet it came on is okay but I put it on a rubber strap instead. Great value.
had to get one....your fault... love it..
Looks like a perfectly fun watch.
Great review and recommendation. Thanks for your time and efforts to share this with us all. This will be my next order.
I haven’t had any luck with addisedive watches. I like there dome treatment on there watches though. Keep up the good work.
Tell me how the big brand watch makers can sell their watches at such a large sum with a straight face. Considering that some Chinese brands are just as good.
Erm...how can a completely circular watch be 46mm im diameter, yet 40mm lug-to-lug?
Because the lugs are hidden underneath the case.
Ive ordered one...
It is a homage to the Halios Puck
Hi Jody!
I would like to see this dial on a more conventional dive watch with 200m water resistant, 47mm lug to lug and a height of 12mm.
Best wishes,
Claus
Wish it had a solar movement, would make it the perfect beater.
Background looks much better!
Odds that the helium valve is real and functional?
I would rock that. I would have paint the tip of the second hand fluorescent orange, though.b The crown tube without a seal has me baffled. There has to be a seal somewhere. Maybe only in the crown. Not good!
I bought the Addiesdive tuna in the last Ali sale and noticed this watch for the first time. It's certainly a big bold watch almost to the point of being ridiculous. I kind of love it. And the price is pretty amazing. I used AI-enhanced search to determine that this watch might be a homage of the Halios 1000M Puck, a watch I'd never heard of from a microbrand I'd never heard of. Since I don't see any other watches with this case style, it seems reasonable that Addies uses the exact same case. I'd be interested to know if there are any differences between the two. The Halios appears to have an o-ring on the crown, so it's likely the Addiesdive can also be fitted with one. Addiesdive seems to make minor improvements with each run, so we might see a crown seal in the future.
I have (and love) my Steeldive "Captain Willard" watch. Can you show this watch near the Captain Willard, for comparison? I always have space for just one more watch...
Maybe test divers on a wet/dry suit for real use?
I think a flexing strap is better when I'm pulling it onto a suited arm.
Just bought it
Interesting but huge, unless its a loss leader shows how much a watch really needs to cost. No matter how cheap the logo is as effective as an octopus to stop a purchase.
Easy to produce a watch that has been made before and is a direct copy of something else.
Jody, by now, you should know that an HEV has not much to do with depth rating.
The indices remind me of the first gen Kamasu.
That case design is just cool.
Ordered this the moment you mentioned it in your Aliexpress video lol next work rotation home I’ll pick it up.😊
😂😂😂
Imagine what you could get for 1,000 USD... 😱
Something to fix you breakfast in bed in the morning?
An oris maybe
Definitely a decent package, just don't like those tuna-like cases. Thanks Jody.
Love it! A cool homage of the Tuna, but gets its own design.
No, it's a Halios Puck copy.
@@Zanpaa good eye.
Makes you think what exactly big names charge us for.
Re: 2:50: It is a 1:1 homage of the Halios Puck. This is not an original design in the slightest.
