I recently discovered Heimdallr. My only disappointment is that I hadn't discovered them earlier. From start to finish my experience with them has set the standard with what I expect from customer service. They ship fast, they respond quickly, and they deliver a damn fine watch at an unbeatable price. I can hardly tell the difference between my $1200 Seiko Tuna with my $169 Heimdallr Sea Shephard. Had I known about this company before, that Seiko would either still be in a warehouse or sitting on someone else's wrist. Since purchasing the Sea Shephard I have also ordered the Captain Willard and Monster homage. For the price of 3 fantastic watches I could have purchased an okay Seiko with hit or miss quality control and zero response from a customer service rep so I am happy with that trade off.
Thanks for the review, I was going to wait for the longisland Islander Monster to come out but the Orange dial Monster was calling for me so I pulled the trigger.
I always wanted a monster but was intimidated by the price which continues to go up for no worth reason! So glad I found this watch! Though I am extremely torn between ordering the orange dial or this blue dial.. Thanks for the great review!
I'm absolutely in the same position. Seiko monster is too expensive for me but this one looks exactly the same and much cheaper. I'm still thinking about the colour but maybe I'm more for the orange one. Did you decide for yourself?
@@sng- Yeah, went for the classic orange! Wanted it to be screaming uniqueness among all ordinary people wearing standard watches. But it hasn't shipped yet 😕 It's not on stock yet. I also own 2 vostoks, they are unique too! Definitely gonna get some more 😌
Just got mine yesterday. Here's my take: I have a small wrist (6,5 inch), but the size is still fine. Negatives: Turning the bezel is not nice and you encounter sharp edges on the case and crown guard. Still manageable, but not a joy. Pin and collar system is a bit goofy. Minute hand could be a bit bigger. Positives: Looks excellent (not says the wife). Comfortable. Great loom. Great crystal. $150 - can't beat that. My advice: Go for the orange, if you don't have an orange watch. I got the red and it looks good, but the watch is so gaudy, you might as well go for a conspicuous color. And you don't get too many orange faces without a black bezel!
Hey.. thanks for taking the time .. at the end of the day you can't expect much for the price and it has to be a good ballance between price and quality and i think this delivers. The way I see this is like a moded Seiko 😀. Thanks again
why they put diver's 200m if it's not iso certified? Isn't that forbiden by law? I don't get it at al.Ho ever i like this watch very mutch.The dial goes from blue in the centar to very dark almost black at the edges.Beautiful...
Hey there. These watches are made in China and the only people that might have something to say might be Seiko. But the amount of lawsuits they have to file wouldn't be worth the effort.
where is the lume shot? is it same as seiko? this gen 2 monster are the most i love design on seiko and thank you heimdallr for making it homage at a better spec. i really love if they could make an homage of the seiko sarb033 or sarb035 with nh36 movement and sapphire crystal after this. thank you for this video sir. have a great day. cheers. :)
Hey man.. thanks for the comment.. fortunately this doesn't cost as much as the one this is homaging, also there is a discount code in the description that takes 20 dollars off .. if you're interested and not becausrme i have it.. I think it's worth every penny!
Hey.. apologise for the late response .. not sure about that because .. I never had one to compare it.. BUT.. for the price the lume is outstanding.. and probably on pat with watches that cost 3 times as much! Thanks
I have owned a Turtle, a 62 mas, and an SKX. The two former were excellent, but the SKX was dreadful. Amazing value for money, but the raised lume pip isn't great. Never mind about the bracelet finishing, it will still be significantly better than seiko
Hey .. thanks for the comment .. possibly misinterpreted ,you're 100 percent correct , Seiko recommends that .. but instead of servicing the watch a brand new movement costs 35 dollars and they can go up to 10 years without a service , also the cost of the service is usually higher than the watch itself . thanks again and apologies for the misinformation!
@@WatcheswithGeorge yeah, new movement is cost effective. Just wanted to point out the litle mistake in the service interval as so new watch lovers could better mantain their pieces, nothing more. But speaking of 10 yr service intervals, Vostok has that. Its a lower beat movement, at 18600 if i m not mistaken and its their official statement to service it every 10 years. That is quite something, but then again, a new movement is around 35-40 dolars. Anyway, Kudos on the channel! Cheers!
@@HVG67 It was veeeeeery easy to size, although it's safe to say that the bracelet is the weak point, but i actually think it's pretty decent for the money!
Good review, Thank you for taking the time to put this together. Thumbs up given. (Did you really contact the company to complain about the finishing on the bracelet of a $160 watch?) XD
Thank you for the idea, I hadn’t thought of getting into the Facebook following. I’ll see if I can stir up enough interest to get my watch made, it at least a dial produced to do the mod.
That is smaller than it looks...I was expecting 44-45mm. I like that watch. Should have ordered it when it was on sale...Its on my hit list for next sales. Like the day/date (NH36) I did pick up 3 Heimdallr watches this fall. 1KM Tuna, NH35 pilot and the NH35 bronze turtle. Thanks for the intro to this watch...I will own one...will have to wait til after Christmas.
heimdallr masters every seiko. unless you want mineral glass and a stamped clasp. heimdallr even has better lume & price the heimdallr monster ALSO comes with a spring bar tool, link removal tool AND a 20mm nato strap!!!!!
I believe Heimdaller also purchased the rights to the seiko Monster Gen 2 machining and tools for the case so its pretty much a modern seiko monster gen 2.......which was always the best!
Hey man.. thanks for the comment! I wouldn't be able to confirm any of they because I'm not sure .. but I can confirm that it's very well made and it looks too damn good! Thanks again
Great review of my favorite Heimdallr watch (although, mine's in red). The fit and finish are on par with Seiko and with the sapphire crystal and the machined clasp, I think they've done one better on Seiko. Plus, the bezel/chapter ring align!
i order an skx monster mod since i see your video from ebay. i was ready for the classic skx sharky and than i saw the monster mod. the think is that you didnt wear on the wrist and i am cautious.
I have the red dial one pre-ordered since October 20th (very early bird). Still waiting for them to ship it. Seems to worth the wait, but i am getting impatient...
Once it gets down to this price I think it's worth it to pay the little more for the better fit and finish. It's not like Steeldive could do it a huge amount cheaper
@@watchesandcaps2566 calling someone broke when you're the one defending a £120 homage/copy of a Seiko lol. Steeldive use the exact same cases as Heimdaller but for around 30% cheaper. Owned both and the price difference isn't worth it. Can just buy a £5 milled clasp from AliExpress and add to the Steeldive.
I bought a Seiko Monster 3rd generation SZSC003 2.5 years ago. It appreciated $200 which is great. The quality of it vs what I paid, not so great. If I buy another Seiko Monster, it will be a safe queen for investment purposes only. I am ordering a Heimdallr Monster as a daily driver. Seiko, get your shit together. People are getting tired of your piss poor quality control.
Cuz ur a seiko shill bro it's ok we understand. I also have a Dracula seiko monster great watch but not worth the 1500+ it's going for now lol I only paid 220 for it. Tell them to up there production or else they will be replaced.
I have a couple of Heimdallr and they are great: did you order from their official site? They list a bunch of fake sites there... I had one issue with a DOA watch, but their CS fixed it within a week..
@@HVG67 It was from their european side of Heimdallr, they were very unhelpful.Cannot believe they sent a watch out that had damaged lugs, looked like they tried to put the metal strap on from the front and gouged it up .

What I don't like is they use "Diver's 200M", which is strictly for ISO rated divers. It's like putting Swiss Made on a Chinese made watch.
Great review! Thanks! You’re right. For less money Heimdallr is offering you more.
OMG can't wait till mine arrives! I ordered the Red version for early bird price of $149.. but it looks even better than I thought... Homerun! 😍🤪

Will they make a first generation homage ? I love the early Monsters from 15 years ago. Thanks!
Checked out your review as tempted to buy this model with orange dial. Excellent detailed overview that makes it even more appealing.

What a great looking homage watch, I think they nailed it.
Hey.. thanks for the comment. Yes they did.. quality wise , I think it's the best from Heimdallr so far! And I mean it!
Jesus, a monster that has no alignment issues! That's definitely something new haha!
hello, how many centimeters do you have in your wrist?

My Heimdallr bronze Tuna have crown signed. Some model came with signed crown.
I have a badly damage monster case. is it possible to swap the original Seiko movt. 7s26 (gen 1) into the Heimdallr and does it fit?
Hey .. how are things . Not 100 percent sure, but you can google the movement dimensions and compare! Thanks again
Pulled the trigger today,,,6 months thinking about. Cheers George, Ray, Galway
Hey Ray.. you won't be disappointed.. wear it in good health
Is the lume comparable with the monster?
Hey.. apologise for the late response .. not sure about that because .. I never had one to compare it.. BUT.. for the price the lume is outstanding.. and probably on pat with watches that cost 3 times as much! Thanks
I've bought two Heimdallrs and I have to say their lume is unreal. So far only Citizen comes close.
Hey.. thanks for the comment. For the price .. you can't really complain much! Thanks
I have owned a Turtle, a 62 mas, and an SKX. The two former were excellent, but the SKX was dreadful. Amazing value for money, but the raised lume pip isn't great. Never mind about the bracelet finishing, it will still be significantly better than seiko
10 year service interval? I think that might be wrong, as seiko recommends 2-3 years for 6r36/Nh36.
