I’m tempted! You’ve shot this video very well and I’m happy to see you getting better each video too your break is coming soon I know it! I would have never thought of getting a watch that small but you may have just convinced me…
Thank you! Each video is a step for a better me I guess 😅 I think everyone needs a vintage/vintage styled watch and this is a great option! The shots are cool but seeing the dial in person is a different story.
Perfect! The original Marlin's are also going to have a better movement inside if serviced so this is the way to go. Great purchase, will keep my eyes open too!
Thank you 🙏🏼 I agree - since they cheaped out a bit on the bracelet and movement a sapphire crystal would have been a good trade-off. Even so, I guess they could ‘claim’ they went for acrylic to stick to the original roots! Like you said, love the watch still! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Hola, me creerias si te digo que tengo 3 relojes exactamente de este color iguales? Compre un marlin Q tambien de 34mm y dos modelos california con esfera blanca y negra de 34mm pero definitivamente ninguno llega a hacerle sombra a este diseño. Pagaria el triple por un mecanismo de calidad. Estoy valorando gastarme 1000€ y comprar el junghans max bill de 34mm con cristal de zafiro. Lo has visto?
¡Honestamente, la esfera y la estética de este reloj son realmente increíbles, incluso dejando de lado su precio! Yo también pagaría el triple por un mecanismo de mayor calidad y precisión. Tengo un Junghans Max Bill de 38mm en cuarzo, y he usado los modelos automáticos de 38mm y tenido en mano el de 34mm de cuerda manual. Creo que es un reloj fenomenal y uno de los mejores relojes de vestir en este estilo minimalista en su rango de precio. Con sus biseles delgados y la esfera blanca, el reloj realmente parece más grande que 34mm, más como un 36mm, pero es absolutamente impresionante.
The movement is lower-end and can be damaged easily if you overwind it, so if you do get this watch only wind the crown and stop as soon as you feel a bit of resistance. It is quite a basic movement so reliability should be fine, but don't expect it to last for years and years like a Miyota or ETA. Servicing it yourself may be a bit difficult as the movement itself is rumoured to be a modified Seagull ST6 - so not much information out there or videos to follow.

I recently got a 1970s Timex Marlin for $5 at an antique sale. Its been serving me quite well, probably the best $5 I've ever spent.

Great Video!! Love this watch
Thank you! I appreciate the comment - the watch is awesome!
Great review Love this watch but it should come at least with sapphire Crystal

Is the movement reliable and easy to service?

لي متل هده الساعة استعملها فهي راءعة جدا
رائع! أتمنى أن ترتديها بصحة جيدة وتستمتع بها. شكراً لمشاهدتك.
It looks like my father's 1960 Omega seamaster.
I really hope this classical styling (and sizing) comes back more. Just such a classy look! Hope your fathers watch is still ticking!
