BAM! You nailed the reasoning for purchasing an homage pieces before taking the deep/expensive plunge. TYVM - great vid. Found the Welly Merck on Ali Express for strap or bracelet for $114.
The one main thing about this watch that will keep me from pulling the trigger is the fact that you can see the dual moon through the bottom half of the dial but I can appreciate the effort and your review as always Be well and Stay Frosty my friend 👍
Totally agree on your homage opinion. It makes sense to try before you buy and avoid the buyers regret which I’ve done with some expensive pieces. Great review.
Great review, you should consider the Sugess Moonphase, I had it for a year almost and it's amazing. The Aventurine dial is great, great lume, big date, and wears pretty well considering it is a bit chunky, the only negative is the 19mm strap size. Is bigger than the Saxonia moonphase
Thanks for the video. We have officially renamed ourselves WM Watch, as we believe this new name better reflects our commitment to quality. The W logo will be retained in our future watches. ❤
Nice WM moonphase, and nice vlog, iam thinking to buy one too, waiting to have a sale season, hope this moonphase can be last long watch, and more power to the vlogger and WM, thanks❤
Dont feel bad about buying a homage of a CW. CW have just outright copied the Nodex clasp from the smaller microbrand Nodus on their latest dive watch (the one with raised lume blocks), its not the first time they pulled this stunt on another micro brand. I understand peoples reservations about homage watches, but where CW bully boys are concerned I say go for it!
I was told this one is not a true moon phase that is based on 29.5 day like the seagull movement in the Suguess. Now I'm wondering if I was miss informed.
They sent me this watch. It's garbage. The moonphase is on a disconnected date wheel. Wrong measure. The moon goes out of sync within days. It's not on a 59 tooth cog. No point. Just aesthetic. The epitome of what we hate as watch enthusiasts.
Nothing about this video makes sense. The argument to buy this is justified with „to know before what you order before you actual buy the watch“. Taking the car analogy, this is so dumb like the wish of buying a bmw coupe and test driving a tata nano in same color. You burn 200 bucks for a copy which 1) has a complete other case than the original (so the wear point is crap as well) 2) does not have the date ring because it is tighten „to the moon dial“ 2.5/3. pretend having a moon complication but actually doesn‘t besides the look with no added module 😂(4) it doesnt seem to have the detail moon print too but thats only what i see in the clip). So for who is that watch? for people who wanna have a nice steel bracelett for 200 bucks if they are at least smart enough to choose this option instead of a stiff leather strap
I’m gonna have to totally disagree with this, clearly. I definitely do understand the points that you’re making. That being said, it seems like you’ve never purchased a high-quality product and regretted buying it. I have, I bought a Tudor Black bay 58 and hated it. Looked great in the AD, even had a great honeymoon period, until I realized the proportions didn’t fit my wrist right, the bracelet wasn’t as comfortable as I thought, and then it sat almost never to be worn again. That’s the justification to buy an homage first. Period. I never said it was exactly the same thing. What I argue is, it’ll get you a “basic feel” for the watch then if you like it, get the original. Trust me, I’ve handled enough Watches to know this is a fact, not an opinion
@@allthingsrandom8137 You are right, I never bought an expensive watch which I regretted having it "after honey moon period", so I see the linkage you wanna do by "really test" driving something out by the cheap hommage. It just doesn't make any sense if the hommage doesn't fit similiar the original at all as I tried to explain. You cannot understand how your original is gonna work because you do not have the same morning routine as with the fake one, it fits completely different on your wrist because of complete different case size & you are eventually not as impressed as you are because of the appearence (i cannot compare here) because of lume and details. So all in all, I would buy the original watch after long concludes for "the basic feel" and can return it free charged back completely within a month by a good service like CW. If you need over a month, 2 years to decide or just like the bling for nothing, that's your deal of course
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.

Always glad you stopped in
Agree with others will not be buying it for over 2K with the grey translucent part for the moon..should have simply been black.
Yup!

Good info to go down a rabbit hole and find out more! Thanks
😮😮😮I'm a CW fan boy and I didn't know about that. Thanks for opening my eyes

🤔 still a really good question. Because I still don’t know
Excellent video,I've been in two minds,had my eye on the CW Moonglow and saw this WM on AliExpress,think I'll buy the WM after seeing your video.
Have you handled the watch dives speedy?
I have not 🤔🤔
Great advice!!!
Thanks!

A better bang for buck watch is the Loresum LS04 , 😁
Eyes see enough moon whens eyes gets out of dee shower 😡
I also like MAMACOO replicas. People who don’t wear them like professionals can’t tell the difference. Their workmanship is really great luxuriatey
Both are crap.
