Great video, very accurate analysis. In my 4.5 years in the game as a watch collector and enthusiast, I collected a lot from MAMACOO I was thinking I was able to get a blue SD but I'm not vip enough, but I'm not giving up. Hehe. Great video.
James had similar issues as you did I believe. Definitely a clomage if a Christopher Ward moonglow. I personally find it a little strange that they went with CW as a company to “homage” since for the most part they are attainable luxury time pieces. Def had a nice sweeping motion on the seconds hand which is nice to see.
In order to properly test the moon phase you would need to set it at full moon and manually wind it 28 days to the next full moon and see, and or set to full moon (when it is a full moon our) and compare it one week later and two weeks later to see.
As always great and honest review. Welly Merck will no longer be on dial once the ones they have in stock are out and gone they will just have the wm logo on it as they have rebranded their name based on feedback. Thanks for the honest review
Ah so someone else had the same problem? I have a few WM branded watches in and it’s far better than Welly Merch, no doubt mate. Thanks for watching and I hope you’re well 👍👍
I have the Sugess moon phase and it’s almost faultless
I have seen that. Might have to look to get that in, thanks mate 👍👍
Once they rebrand as WM versus Welly Merck, I think they have potential. The more competition out there the better it is for us. It’s been a while since I saw you outright not recommend something. Hopefully they take it positive feedback and improve their future watches. Thanks!
They are now known as wm watch, not welly Merck. They still have watches out there that will have welly Merck on them but they are now known as wm watch, fyi.
I generally don’t get watches in that I don’t think look really good, hence why I recommend most but this one isn’t good enough tbh and yes, WM Watch is now what they’re called and I will call them that on watches where they are branded as such 👍👍
Thank you for your support. We have officially rebranded as WM Watch. We are actively listening to your feedback and are committed to bringing you even more and better products. Please continue to follow us.❤
These companies should not homage micro brands
I get that mate 👍👍
@@redtill1 I don't see a problem once they're sold out as they don't normally do reruns.
@@zosothezephead837 that is acceptable…. As long as it’s not a watch the micro brand is currently selling
At least they are not charging x3 like Christopher Ward does for the same thing.
I don’t think CW charge too much for their watches tbh, I think CW are hard to beat at the price and I’m a HUGE fan 👍👍
Appreciate your appraisal. You're right on all marks. I don't like this new trend on slab sided hockey pucks. I guess I'm spoiled by the CW light catcher case and the cases inspired by it.
Appreciate your support mate and I must say, CW are doing so much right at the minute, very good indeed 👍👍
The Willy Wonka of watch brands.
Willy Wonka 🤣🤣👍👍
Love your reviews, you get the information across very well. Not being picky, but Hangzhou is pronounced Hung Joe in Mandarin Chinese, it's a beautiful city.
Thanks for your kind words and also for helping with the pronunciation mate 👍👍
“Is that a welly on your wrist…” , it’s a no from me.
No problem mate 🤣🤣👍👍
As always the most thoughtful , well researched & eloquent watch channel around , keep AMZWATCH coming !
Great review as always Simon! But those gloves are getting a bit grotty...
Indeed mate and I think I’m going to ditch them and start going with no gloves, this seems to be what people want given the results of my latest poll 👍👍
I got this watch last week, From the price, it's a good watch
I’m glad you like it mate. I however, wasn’t impressed sadly
It's representing the 28-day cycle of the moon (actually 29.5 days). The jerk every 24 hours is the movement of one day. For a ton, that's a pretty good representation.
I'm a big fan of MP's - Glycine Combat MP, RW Maestro MP, and IWC Portofino MP. I was never that fussed about the CW MP which this fromages, though its a good looker.
I get that mate and I understand the ‘jerk’ but for me having 2 moons is completely unnecessary 👍👍
@WatchtheTime Yeah, that is an odd one. A lot of the high-end stuff does it, as I'm sure you know. I believe it might be something to do with the way the moon is viewed from the Northan or the Southern hemisphere. But I can't wrap my head around it. However, those ones have the second moon partially viewable, where this WM puts it under glass 👍
The first one I got the moon phase wouldn’t move, the replacement wouldn’t run for more than 5 min. Got a full refund.
Sorry to hear that mate but at least you got a full refund 👍👍
Welly Merk, sounds like stuff you scrape off your rubber boots.
Very good 🤣🤣👍👍
Outstanding video.I have to go with the AMZWATCH, especially with that green dial as my favorite
It is showing moon phase but these cheapo moonphase movements tend to rotate in a 28 day cycle which means the display will need synching more often. For the price it's hard to complain, though others have commented a Sugess moonphase performs better. For me this is an example of a cheap copy that doesn't really compare with the watch it's aping. I believe the moonphase on that one keeps in synch for well over a hundred years. I can't imagine it running so long without a service though. 😂
I think I need to check out a Sugess version, would imagine it’s far, far better than this tbh mate 👍👍
Fair criticism, great review, not a great watch. Let's hope it prompts them to improve 😁
I appreciate that mate - thank you 👍👍
We are listening to every user's voice. Thank you for your feedback!❤
Aside from the brand name issue, it's quite good in other aspects. At least the one I purchased doesn't have any problems.👌
No problem mate - enjoy 👍👍
Watch are the ultimate Men's accesories!Enjoyed watching your collection. Keep going!As a watch enthusiast and watch reviewer, I can say AMZWATCH this was a great choice. Enjoyed your video!
I told the store them self, they are advertising this as a moonphase watch. Which is impossible. The mooncycle is 29.5 days. The moons are connected to the date wheel, so 31 days. Sounds like a pagani brand 😅
Well done for mentioning it to them and let’s hope they continue to listen to feedback and improve 👍👍
Yes I've seen that date wheel modification on Alie watches too. It's a very cheap way to get the look I suppose 👍
@@WatchtheTime no problem. The brand has potential, different kind of style watches. Only they have to change the name or only use the logo!
I buy the same style of watch. I really like this moon phase watch. Quality and price match. The luminous look is nice and the time is accurate.
Good to hear mate. Long may you continue to enjoy it 👍👍
It's pretty fun for the price, Simon. Cheers 🍻!
Nice one mate 👍👍
I think this is the first time someone has complained about an oversized welly!
🤣🤣👍👍
This watch brand I got it have changed the WM Watch.
The name comes from a great American foot ball player from the thirties .
Really? Can’t say I’ve ever heard of them tbh…
The only brand I'd refuse to wear because of its name is Wancher.
🤣🤣👍👍
Anything made by pagani design is expected to have to have poor lume but the other stuff is not expected. I was hoping it would be a good watch. Darn
Sorry man - I can only review the watch as I see it 👍👍
A “decent “clungemage” 😂
🤣🤣👍👍
No too much AR either
Indeed. I had so many things to mention in ‘pants’, I didn’t think it prudent to add that but you’re right 👍
@@WatchtheTime I'm working on one right now of another watch, and I don't know what else to do in the editing to make it come out less negative or hateful. The watch just doesn't do it for me. It's not terrible, or super bad or anything but it's so uninspiring.
@CoolWatchesOnly just do your best mate and be honest, people respect that 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime Thanks for the advice man 👌
Thank you for your detailed review! We truly value your feedback and will continue to work on improving our products. Your input is very important to us.Also, our brand name has officially changed to WM Watch.Thanks again for your support and valuable feedback!❤❤❤
No problem and I’m aware of your name change but, I have to mention it given it’s what is says on the dial. Good on you for being open and listening though, that is invaluable 👍👍
Thank you for the Review.
Can anyone confirm if it's a proper moonphase and not just a date wheel, with Moons printed on it ?
✌️
I would like to know that as well. I don’t want to spend the money to find out. I suspect it’s just a moon on a date wheel also.
I think it would probably work ok as a moon phase style watch but not accurate like something more expensive 👍👍
Nobody needs. Thanks for the warning 👍
its welch for "I can not see my welly's" ;-)....
🤣🤣👍👍
Its just a poor watch apart from the name(who checks the names) the listing makes it look far more impressive than it is.Great review your always fair but this is a bit of a mess of a watch.
I appreciate that man and I will always endeavour to be firm but fair. Thanks for watching and I hope you’re well 👍👍
Always a good day when your video drops!Great video as always.Can’t beat it for MAMACOO watches!
Welly Merck 😂👎
Indeed but at least they’re switching to WM Watch 👍👍
The moon is set to the calendar movement of 31 days so it’s not a true moon phase. 😊
I wouldn’t expect it to be for the money tbh but even so, this one left me disappointed but that being said, WM are doing some great stuff mate 👍👍
@ I’d still consider it but I’ll wait till it just has the WM logo without the name on the dial as the company are saying the newer ones will be.
Berny, Welly Merck, what is it with the Chinese and these dumb brand names?
Indeed but at least Welly Merck are now going to go by WM Watch, which I’ll address future models that don’t say Welly Merck as 👍👍
The only good thing about this watch is the name. I am the proud owner of two Bernys, a Tactical Frog and a Mysterious Code; they are all great pieces and wonderful value for money. You just need a sense of humour and/or adventure. I'm still looking for the Muff brand which does a diver watch! Cheers 🍻!
@timeandnourishment1961 muff brand 🤣🤣👍👍
@@WatchtheTime Yeah, Dan from Watch Me With Watches did a video a wee while ago on odd Chinese brand names. 😀
@@timeandnourishment1961I'll bet you don't own a FNGEEN, because I do hehehe.
The display is showing the waxing and waning of the moon..... so it is a moonphase watch - Sugess make a much nicer one
You have a point.
I know it’s a moon phase watch but I just don’t think it’s been done very well + there is no need for 2 moons IMO. Thanks for watching 👍👍
@WatchtheTime that's how a moonphase watch works.... 2 moons, showing the waxing and waning of the moon. I have the Sugess Moonphase which is a real beauty, you only ever see one moon on the display....the one you reviewed looks shoddy
Amazing what a little slave labor cab get you for cheaps innit then?
I couldn’t possibly comment on that 👍👍
👍
👍👍
Why two moons !? I don’t get it……
When the moon reaches the new moon phase it is at the 3 o’clock position. To start the waxing phase the moon needs to be at the 9 o’clock position. New moon lasts less than 24 hours. The moon would have speed around the dial to emerge at the 9 o'clock position. One moon disappears and the waxing moon appears.
Unfortunately, as you can see both, it doesn’t really work and I think that is what causes all the confusion + it not looking the best 👍👍
Interesting watch BUT not for my wallet.
No problem my friend 👍👍
New friend here sending may full suppor MAMACOO 's watch,Worth
