Does this Watch have a Ghost Date Position ?
@@localgearhead yes
V2 is now on sale for $139 usd.
Almost forgot, they still have V1 available and it’s currently on sale as well for $99.
NOT HAQ. Accuracy is +/-5 spM. No where near HAQ (+/-10 spY.) From Bulova NP200 Movement instructions: "Exclusive Three Prong Torsional Resonator gives accuracy within 5 seconds/month" Better than typical Quartz (+/- 15 spM)
@@iconoclast-wolf I have had one... It was 11s over 12 months!
This watch didn't have sapphire crystal!
I know this might be a weird question, but, is there any chance of an Invicta Pro Diver comparison to the Sub?
Which store was this from???
FWIW, the NH 35 can be serviced. It just costs too much. However, if done, they can be substantially improved. It seems the Seiko skimps on lubrication and adjustment on the NH 35s so as not to give their more expensive movements too much competition.
You should check out their Moon Phase watch. It’s really nice.
At the last sale the price was 38€ with coins😂
That’s a hell of a deal for a great looking watch. I do agree that the Jubilee Style is a little too blingy for this watch. With that said, I got the Jubilee Style for my white dial Ascent, and I plan on wearing as my “dress” watch. Thanks for the great review.
Volume is much too low. 😢
the watch looks great outside in the sun, but it has too much reflections (hi gloss bezel,glass)...so in rooms I see almost nothing of the beauty...it's faceless and dark
I like that the Jubilee bracelet has a proper narrow taper like a Seiko. Most SKX typed watches have only a slight taper on their Jubilee bracelets. I have only two Cadisen watches, and despite producing very safe and somewhat boring watches, for the price I think they're unmatched.
Did you take the measures? 40mm of bezel or dial?
I've had this model in the blue and red design for about six months. My bezel action is still tight and does not have the back play that yours shows. My only gripe is that my watch runs fast. It picks up 5-10 seconds per day. I don't wear it every day so that isn't that big of deal for me.
I love my SD1953. I got mine on sale for $53. I have several Sieko and Citizen watches, and the SD doesn't disappoint.
My favorite 2024 is the Prospex Limited Edition 1965 Recreation European Exclusive in Gradation Island Blue. The dial is stunning and the contrast when on a white strap is to die for. I will get my hands on one from amzwatch
Çok iyi video
It's not a Rolex stop expecting $100,000 worth of value on a $100 Japanese watch it's built good 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 by them japs
Not a Marinemaster.... anything under 300m water resistant...and not high beat movement...is not a Marinemaster or "baby".....but is a beautiful watch ❤
A lovely Homage to a classic. I see a " copy" being one with an aftermarket seiko dial and sterile caseback. But i feel this is definitely a homage due to using their own name on the dial, caseback,watch clasp and crown.
Thanks for the great review. I don’t have one, but Tsuyosa is definitely a future acquisition. I just need to pay more attention to Citizen in general. Thanks again!
@@adk7962 pleasure mate
my 1970 makes +1s pro day on table. on wrist making walk with dog(moving my hands, vibrations ..) it gains +6s pro hour. is that normal ?
@@Przemeknoname probably needs to be adjusted by a watchmaker
A másodpercmutató nem a vonalon áll meg. Olcsó óra hatását jelenti.
I have the same model, looks great on the strap. Mine is losing a couple of seconds a month.
$14,900 for the name, $100 for the watch. I'll stick with my $120 SteelDive thank you.
The only thing still not quite right is the movement. The right subdial is a 24 hour dial that works with the watch’s actual time, and not part of the chrono complication, which makes it super redundant. To date, there isn’t a movement out there that replicates the chrono complication of the Speedy with the same subdial spacing. It’s a nice homage tho.
Thanks so much
I am seriously thinking about getting this watch, can anyone else tell me anything good or bad about it?
My favorite 2024 is the Prospex Limited Edition 1965 Recreation European Exclusive in Gradation Island Blue. The dial is stunning and the contrast when on a white strap is to die for. I will get my hands on one from amzwatch
I had one of these and sold it. I regret that now and will probably get another. It's a fantastic thing. Top tip. Put it on a Milanese.
Very cool looking watch but 650$ is a bit too much for a quartz.
@Nudei-nc1cp It's more than just a quartz. This is Bulovas proprietary ultra high frequency movement with a sweeping seconds hand. It's the most advanced quartz technology this side of a Grand Seiko.
@@AndySmith4501 Yeah I know that. But sill... a bit too much in my opinion.
@@Nudel-nc1cp Well a Tag Heuer will cost you double, and it's movement is a basic off the shelf quartz ETA. For what it is, the UHF Bulova is great value
@@AndySmith4501 Well I don't really like Tag and cannot afford one either. I might pick this one up when it got on sale. I like Bulova and some of their designs for sure.
@@AndySmith4501 not really. Seiko makes Astrons with radio control for a lot cheaper.
vk63 i think
I have the Merlot Red version, I have a 63/4" wrist and got a really good fit, it's not lost a second in the 2 months I have had it, I got it 15% off and an extra year warranty so am very happy with my Jet Star
Thanks for the great review. I agree. I don’t know why they don’t tout this movement more. And this watch is for sure a future purchase for me. Thanks!
I own this watch ... but the regular model .. the 96B415 Very nice watch indeed
I have an Omega Seamaster, bought in 2001 for £1200. Look at the prices now. In 2020 I put it in for service and was offered a new Speedmaster for £4400. Look at the prices now. It's become ridiculous and frankly most of what you pay is advertising, franchise costs, celebrity endorsements and sponsorship. I've just bought this Pagani. It's a bargain. Imagine if they started to make them with a quality mechanical movement, hesalite.... it'd still be under £200.
Hey mate, 50 metres water resistant for $659! What a joke. I love the Bulova Sea King which has the same high beat movement for half the price. My Bulova Sea King has a screw down crown and 200 metres of water resistance. I bought it a year ago swapped out the rubber strap for a sail cloth rubber one and it is my best watch. So sadly until they make this one decently water resistant I wont be buying it. Good review though.
The archive watches generally use the same style case back as the original watches they are based on so you don't get the higher water resistance of a newer style screw down case back with gasket. It's a trade off.
Might have something to do with it being a dressy watch, not a diver
When non watch people write something dumb about the water resistance of a non diver 😂
@@davidb9531🤣
Non watch people I own 52 watches.. I have 3 Bullova watches and my point is an expensive price for the same movement as in my Sea King which cost way less with better specs. @@davidb9531
The turn of the 70s is evoked nicely by the angular case and the cool breeze block style of the bracelet. The red, white and blue exploitation of the US flag went into overdrive running up to the Bicentennial. Way too much here as well, so unless it is offered with a neutral colorway less the colors, I will pass.
The BULOVA font is just right as well.
I just got the Addiesdive… very nice 👍
Currently rocking the orient kamasu myself. Do you know what the slimmest submariner homage is? As in thickness

A great collection. When I was first thinking to buy myself a “nice watch” that seamaster gmt was on my Wishlist.

Very cool. Thanks for showing us the watches!
@@adk7962 no worries my friend
I have just bought the NTTD watch and I absolutely love it and now Im looking at getting the Sumo after seeing it on here. There is something quite perfect about Heimdallr watches for me. Also got the Addiesdive Deep Sea Hunter and can vouch that it is a beautiful watch at a bargain price. Great video and a great channel
@@MonoXimian thanks 🙏 that's very kind of you
I ordered one and received it. So far I’m impressed. My only worry is how long this will last with daily use. Is this watch even serviceable or can I expect this to just be a throw away?
It should be serviceable for sure..just the same as a Seiko or Citizen automatic would be.
I just ordered the purple fumé dial on the jubilee bracelet because the purple helix dial was sold out. The white enamel was tempting. Also just ordered the purple Origin 38 because the pink and light blue ones were sold out. These will be nice additions to my collection. Thanks for the thorough review especially the close-up shots.
Thats a pleasure mate, glad you enjoyed it and hope you like your new watches! Have a nice weekend
Just watched this review & at no point do you show the bezel action & is it 60 or 120 click.This is a major part of a dive watch & you failed to mention anything about it …..
