    To screw the crown in, turn it COUNTER clockwise slowly until you feel a slight click. That will be the threads lining up. Then you can screw the crown in clockwise without worrying about damaging the threads. A tiny bit of lube on threads every once in a while is good, too. Works on all threads, not just watch crowns.

    I had a feeling AliExpress had a warehouse location in the United States. There are some stores and sellers with the same product that can't deliver to Canada. Possibly due to the exporting/customs duty taxes. That's a great watch at that price! Good detailed video brother 🍻👊🏽

    I was planning on purchasing one but it appears to be some confusion in the information provided. Based on the pictures, it seems the bezels are made of metal(no lume). However, there are users stating they have received the watch with a ceramic grey bezel.

      Yes there are different versions. There is a newer version with aluminum bezel insert that looks like Yacht Master (non-lumed). I purchased mine at Steeldive Store on aliexpress.

      I'm not knowledgeable on the Addiesdive automatic version. They are definitely not as popular or available than the Steeldive. My only question is whether the Addiesdive cyclops is lower magnification. I find the Steeldive cyclops to be over magnified. I own several of the Addiesdive quartz models and those cyclops are more normal but are also mineral instead of sapphire. I also own a Tiffany Blue SD1953 that I ordered with the oyster so I can swap jubilee and oyster between the two. I have reviewed that watch also on my channel. Thanks for watching.

    rata rata orang membeli dan mereview SD1953 grey dengan lume terang di bazel ceramik,tetapi jarang orang memikirkan sisi negatifnya bila sering tergores melukai lume dibazel dan itu akan jelek sekali 😂.saya setahun yang lalu memilih 1953 grey dengan tanpa lume dibazel dan itu sangat bagus sampai sekarang padahal sering bergesekan dengan barang yang keras dan tidak takut merusak lume di bazelnya...ini hanya opini dan pengalaman saya karna saya juga mempunyai kapten wilard yang juga mempunyai lume dibazel dan karena sering bergesekan sehingga merusak lume di bazel

    The SteelDive'53 is the Rolex of watch value.

    Lume is insanely good. Outstanding value for money.
    I have the black face but grey with cream bezel numbers looks v. nice.

    • @mtbbiker6401
      @mtbbiker6401  Месяц назад

      Totally agree. It's definitely the best automatic sub homage for the money especially when on sale for $50 USD. Addiesdives makes the best quartz version (same lume) for $25.

      That's odd. I ordered another SD1953 with oyster bracelet and it has the same clasp as the one in this video. It has 6 holes for micro adjustment. SteelDive has an updated V3 clasp that has an applied 3D logo on the clasp. It doesn't have any micro adjust holes but it has an adjustment hidden under the clasp similar to glidelock. Maybe you received that one.

      Yes. It seems like a nice quality bracelet. I have it adjusted down to my 6.5 inch wrist and it can still go smaller. My only complaint is the protruding male end links which technically adds some lug to lug width but that's a minor gripe.
