Gorgeous watch! I would wear it with everything!! 😍
Hey.. you're that one friend of mine that said he would!
@@WatcheswithGeorge You bet I am😉 All things aside, it really is a cool watch, and a big 👍 for the video!!!
One of the nicest panda dials in my opinion, very well executed. Thanks for the review George!
It's stunning. I picked this up in the full white version, nodate. Put it on a dark drown leather strap and it is truly, a one watch collection. I can't go wrong with this watch. Plus my wife loves it too!
Ha.. the wife loving it is definitely the most important factor!!
Used to own this.
Great watch.
Readability not too good.
Now have the 'evil panda' version.
Also bad readability but good looking..
These are beautiful, I love mine. I just wish they went with 18mm lug width instead of 19mm though. Also I milled clasp would have been nice, instead of the pressed one. But I can forgive those minor things due to the watch just being so damn good looking.
Hey man .. could't agree with you more .. thanks again !
Leather strap all the way...for my furry hands. 😀 Nice video, as always!
Hey hey .. thank you very much Adi !
Sounds like a pretty good value for money time piece. Thank you for the review, George 👍🏿
If I had to buy a chronograph, I'd buy agaib a Graf Zeppelin with alarm, although that falls into a different price range. Personally, I can't understand the functionality of a chronograph. When I have to time things, I simply use the bezel on a diver style piece that I usually wear. Chronos look too dressy and fragile for my taste.
Hey.. thanks for the comment my man. To be honest.. I think very few people actually use the functions on a watch like that but to be honest on this.. for me .. the size , the look they do it all.. I'm willing to overlook a few things just because it looks sooooo good! Thanks again
I feel the opposite, divers are too sporty for me lol. I like the dress look of a Chrono while also being casual with a leather strap. They offer more interesting dial that makes you want to look at it more. To each their own 😁
Beautiful watch and great review! I have three of the no date bicompax models. One on a Guy Freres ladder bracelet, one on a navy blue Barton racing strap and one on a double locking mesh bracelet. I love the DB5 on the back which just says everything about 1964! All three definitely punch way above their weight!
im a bit larger guy, 6'5 195ibs, and am a bit concerned of how this 38mm watch would look on me. Any thoughts?
Hi mate! Nice video, thanks! I have exactly this model. The main issue is very poor legibility, the hands blend into the dial. Moreover, I'd rather say a strap (albeit maybe not the OEM one) is a more formal option while a bracelet is a more informal one. Cheers!
Hey man.. thanks for the comment. I think it depends how see it .. because for me , the bracelet could do it all..since it's not so easy to put in! Thanks again for your time
Many thanks for your review of this great looking watch. Stay safe.
Very nice. I wish there was no blue AR coating. A clear AR is more vintage. And why not an acrylic crystal as in the seagull 1963
Hey man.. thanks for the comment.
I think they were going for a more modern design with it.. I love it to be honest for what it is! Thanks again
I’m stuck between this and the white panda dial which would you recommend
Hey.. thanks for the comment. personally.. i just think this color is a better all rounder ! i just think anything darker would limit it's versatility a bit more. Thanks
I have this exact watch. White Panda with no date. I really do love the watch, but if truth be told, I wish it was just slightly bigger (maybe 39-40mm). Other than that, I really like it and was lucky I got it before they sold out.
im a bit larger guy, 6'5 195ibs, and am a bit concerned of how this 38mm watch would look on me. Any thoughts?
@@omfghaxpixel8091 That's hard to say. It is a bit on the small side. It looks good on my wrist, but my wrist is also on the small side (about 7-7 1/8 inches). It looks good on my wist, but depending on how much bigger your wrist is it might look too small. If your wrist isn't much more than maybe 7-1/4" it would probbly be fine, but if you have very large wrists, it might look a tad too small on yoru wrist. But then that might just be a matter os taste too.
I've a question for you George. Let me preface it by saying I envoyed this and the three or four others I've watched in the past day or two, and I really like tht is Dan Henry. I'm intrigued about your accent - you sound like you're either Irish or you perhaps learned English in Ireland (I'm Irish btw). Also, would you prefer this one over the '62 version? I get the feeling that I just want both
Hey ,
Thanks for the comment and the support. I new English before coming to Ireland and cought the accent along the way. I think you can't go wrong with either but for me this is the best looking. Thanks again
I will never understand why any company would make any watches with 19 or 21 mm lugs 🤦
Hey there.. I agree.. but in this case I have to say that they matched the case very well ! Thanks again
Rmartin, totally agree! It's just being awkward if you want to replace the stock bracelet/band
19 and 21 definitely DETRACT lots and lots of potential buyers.
So yeah, very strange decision to engineer this parameter during design ON PURPOSE 😖
@@RickDeckardMemories I would have to agree with you on that one .. and it definetly limits you on that aspect !
Yes! Very annoying for those who like to use lots of different straps.
im a bit larger guy, 6'5 195ibs, and am a bit concerned of how this 38mm watch would look on me. Any thoughts?
Hey, im really debating buying this watch but i don’t know if i should choose him or the sugess panda. Everything about this watch i like more then the sugess but sugess uses mechanical seagull movement witch I really like and is cheaper, so if you had any experience with this watch, what would you suggest i buy?
Hey hey. Sorry for the late reply. I can say that I've passed on this wat h to my wife who's is not as gentle as I was with it and it still holds up. I was concerned that the crystal would scratch but it's still impecable. I also have a Sugges with that movement but clearly the DH is a much better watch and more appealing. Hope that answers your question.
Thank you very much my guy!
Hi, great video. I notice you have a 6.3 inch wrist. Would this watch be too big on a 6 inch wrist? You mention it wears bigger than the dimensions suggests and that concerns me because my wrist is really for 36mm watches, and a 38mm watch is on the edge of my size limit. The problem is, there just aren't many options sub $300 chronograph options for 36mm watches
Hey there, thanks again for the comment and support. I passed on to my wife and she wears it proudly. She has a smaller wrist and I think it still looks good. It wears bigger than the dimensions would suggest but it's not a big watch at all. Hope this clarifies it. Thanks again
@@WatcheswithGeorge Thank you for the reply! I appreciate it. You just earned a subscriber and a like to the video.
@@davidb-h6709 you're most welcome, I really appreciate the support. I still post videos, but this is not my main job , just a hobby so not as much volume but I do it for fun! Thanks again for supporting the addiction 😂
Nice watch, nice presentation.
Hey there.. thanks a million!
😍so pretty 😍
Does those armilla perlon straps you reviewed earlier fit on this watch? If they do, I can imagine that combination will be pretty versatile for many occasions.
Hey man, they don't do a 19 but the perlons would definitely suit the lugs I would say!
@@WatcheswithGeorge Thanks for the quick response. I also have the same watch in full silver. After seeing your reply, it certainly makes me wanna order one of those perlons to match it. Cool video by the way.
I wear mine sometimes with an 18mm perlon and it fits nice.
I was thinking about getting the silver dial, what do you think?
Hey .. thanks for the comment .. to be completely honest .. none of them are bad choices .. the only concern that I would have is the legibillity outdoors .. but apart from that it's a killer design regardless! thanks again
@@WatcheswithGeorge I’ll get the all silver dial I think. Is the watch comfortable for a daily watch?
@@roryhenderson6236 Oh yes.. very comfortable.. but bare in mind.. that the crystal is only sapphire coated .. not actually sapphire .and the water resistance .. is not as high.. only 50m to my knowledge.. regardless I would recommend it and buy it in a heart beat again if I had to .
Compare to the 1962 Panda!
Yes!
With the fact that you have to buy an extra leather strap for 45 dollars do you think it’s worth it
I see you're located in Dublin- where can you buy this in Ireland?!
Hey hey..you have to buy it from their website.. they don't deliver to Ireland directly you have to buy it and send it to parcel motel to Belfast! Let me know how it works out ! Thanks
@@WatcheswithGeorge Really? and how do you get it from Belfast to wherever you are in Ireland? Confused.....
@@thinredline2795 it gets delivered into lockers, and i use a code they gave me to open the locker. There are lockers all over the city!
@@WatcheswithGeorge Oh ok, thanks, I live in Mayo :( I can't see myself going to Belfast to collect a watch from a locker
@@thinredline2795 you don't have to go to Belfast my man.. the service is called Parcel Motel.. and they have lockers all around the city , in Mayo i would say..have a look where! There usually at petrol stations!
Not the best anything with the Seagull about....
That garbage clasp on a no-name watch priced over $300 is offensive.
