    Another great review of a super nice watch....Seestern is my favorite AliExpress watch.I just got 2 of them the Titanium (S430) and the S434 and they are great watches regardless of their price.

    It's exceptional for the price! I had already seen 1 or 2 reviews of this watch (Jason, and maybe the watcher?) And they were as impressed as you.
    Unfortunately, it's not really my style. Too big, and don't really like the (Grand) Seiko dive watches. But there are exceptions like the 62mas.
    Anyway, thanks for the review Simon. And have a good weekend 😉

    Alot of people saying this is a Grand Seiko homage which I can see from the bezel, bracelet and hands however the dial colour, indices and number layout look like the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Ultra Deep. Either way for £100 this is an absolute steal of a watch if you like the styling. Great review

      Yes, it takes some distinctive design cues from the Grand Seiko SBGM221.

    It’s a great watch. Ironically I’ve never really been into the look of Grand Seiko Divers. I love all of their other watches though. And there’s virtually not a single Seiko Diver I don’t like. You really can’t go wrong with Seestern. Thanks for the great review!

    • @WatchtheTime

  • @ChrisJohns-k7j
    @ChrisJohns-k7j Год назад +8

    It’s a great watch. I ordered the white dial version the day it was released. When it came in, I opened the case and was blown away. I ordered the version you have before I even pulled the white dial one out of the case. So paid like 150 US for each and I thought it was the best watch on Ali at that price. One thing I don’t think you mentioned is the capped seconds hand. I am a Sugess/Seestern fanboy, I have 12 of their watches and was still stunned at the finish.

    Hey Simon you know I have the white version. It had some issues.
    The bezel was very loose and insert misaligned. Fixed those myself..
    The clasp is kinda cheap looking compared to the case and bracelet so i replaced it with a fully milled one.
    Other than that, i think its a great watch. Cannot believe it costs so little. I love mine..

  • @LymanPhillips
    @LymanPhillips Год назад +1

    Its a very pretty watch. I like the case shape - a nice change from the usual Rolex clone case. In fact the whole dial color scheme and hands are very pretty
    Heres my pants: their name/branding on the face isnt doing them any favors - rather boring.
    The bracelet could use more taper. A bracelet with a nice taper would add additional elegance to an already elegant watch.
    The contrast between the polished lugs and the brushed bracelet is too different. What I like about my SM watches is that very frequently the brushing on the braceletd very closely matches rhe brushing on the lugs. It gives the whole thing and integrated feel.
    Thes are pretty picky things, but they could vault Seestern into the next level of Ali watches.

    • @WatchtheTime
