A hands on review of the stunning Smiths Caribbean 1000 PRS-55 from Timefactors. This is the yellow dial / blue bezel version.

A2, correct! Beautiful Maverick Scout!
Nice! I have the Ogival day date on a jubilee Champaign diamond dial
Can you adjust the strap length?
Yes, with the usual sort of plastic strap adjuster thing.
Когда купил, но не знаешь что с ним делать
Why does it not display the corret conversion for 200m to feet. It should be 656 feet.
You're absolutely right! Loads of dive watches do that... but I don't know why 🤔
Lovely genuine overview of the watch. Just FYI the anti-magnetic properties mean it’s less likely the hair spring becomes magnetized which would cause the watch to keep erratic time. The broad arrow (crow’s foot) - although this is not a British military issued watch (broad arrow indicates it is the property of the MOD) it does, I believe, have a genuine NATO part/stock number which adds an element or credibility to what is a nod to the past/military provenance.
I got the watch on ebay over paid but i still think its worth it based on your review lol
I'm sure you'll love it, definitely worth it 😁
@@WatchesKnivesEDC guess what I went to the store and I got the Watch ordered easy peasy I will not accept the Watch I ordered on eBay saving hundreds
Great video, thanks. Please consider doing a comparison of the MDV-102 (MTD 1054) and the newer MDV-106, which has something of a cult following here in the United States. A Google search shows the MDV-106 is worn by Microsoft's Bill Gates. Both models are rated for 200 meters and thus feature a marlin, although I understand that mark is going away. I prefer the smaller diameter of the MDV-102. And that older model is now a collector's item--I see two listed on eBay for $450.
That 106 has been on my list for so long! I haven't got round to buying one because I already have too many dive watches and it doesn't have the cool LEDs of the 102 / 1054. But maybe I can justify getting a 106 since a review has now been requested ;-)
I think its the best choice at that price no doubt
Great review i think i will get it great price
Thanks for the review !! I just ordered it, it looks really beautiful !
Great walkthrough to the MTD-1054 Super Illuminator series. I'm a Casio Marlin collector and own a pair of MDV-102 which share the same module and it's great to see and know all other variants of this model. Looking forward to more videos. Cheers!
A sturdy alternative to a flimsy Fit Bit. Step counter works fine, but not many features available. Stopwatch and timer functions are great. Easily programmable through app. Negative display is fine in sunlight but practically worthless otherwise.
Which do you prefer between this and the standard Fjallraven pocket?
Personally the pocket; I love that tough canvassy G-1000 material!
What's this like to wear under a t-shirt/shirt? Would the strap chafe your skin?
The pocket is fine but the strap is very thin so it may well chafe.
Very nice, But make it in a 40mm version, Its 2024
😉 I personally love the dimensions. There are other Dirty Dozen inspired watches out there that are bigger - the Praesidus Dirty Dozen is 38mm, the Vaer A12 is 40mm.
I want one so bad! 😢
I'm thinking about buying this wallet, but I'm missing a little loop to attach a carabiner/key ring to it. Any chance it would work to put one through the Swedish flag label? 🙏
It's a good idea. Two issues I can see: it's quite a small loop so the carabiner would have to be small, and it's quite thin so I think it would tear through quite quickly.
Love this watch. Do you think it could fit under a shirt cuff at 15mm? I wear a suit nearly daily.
It depends on how tight you wear your shirts but I'm not 100% confident it would, it's quite tall and boxy :-/
How to reset the time
Take a look on the Adidas website - they have user manuals available adidaswatches.com/care-instructions-user-manuals/
Don't quite understand, the Timex Command Shock Digital CAT 54mm Watch is half the cost of the expedition yet other than a tiny change up on the front screen both watches are 100% identical in features and build. So why are you paying more for a watch instead of saving money? I know the display is inverted but still shows up nicely and looks great. Not to mention if you scratch yours depending on the angle of light or sun it will reflect the scratch to your lcd display.
To be honest at the time I bought this it was on special so it wasn't expensive. There are so many variations of these watches - I agree, buy the one that's the cheapest at the time 😊
Beautiful watches. I have the blue model. Fantastic for the price I paid
Made in Hong Kong will never go on my wrist.
I am very fussy about thickness and I am more and more drawn to watches that are slim on the wrist. That said, I do not find that this watch looks thick on my wrist. It is definitely appears thicker than the PRS-29, but most importantly it doesn't look thick to me.
Would you recommend the 20 for a day hike ? I’ve read differing opinions but you seem to know what you’re talking about ! Cheers
I've used mine for day hikes and it was fine. There is undoubtedly better out there, but as a multipurpose pack it's great! It's obviously not massive but for a modest hike there's room for 2 water bottles on the outside of the bag, then plenty of room for snacks, maps, first aid kit, spare socks, waterproof, battery pack, camera... whatever you take on your day hikes. Comfort-wise the straps are nicely padded, but it has no chest strap or hip belt so it'll move about on your back, and it's quite short so for tall people it might rub a bit on the small of their back. And it's sweaty! I find the compartments practical, I like its sturdiness, and it's comfortable enough.
@@WatchesKnivesEDCthanks for the reply , I’m looking at the Lappland too , cheers
MY black one arrived today. Another great watch from Timefactors. Only mentioned by real enthusiasts since freebies and paid reviews are not done. Says a lot about all the "impartial reviewers" out there. Still those who know, know.
Got lucky on the last shop opening, really looking forward to receive the watch. The only thing I´m not super fond of are the hands, I just would have preferred syringe hands out of personal preference. They just look better :-). Thanks for the review!
Received mine today, same as yours, in black. I was a little worried I’d find 36mm too small, but it looks great. Finally scratched the itch for an authentic inspired small seconds.
Why do the numbers on the dial appear to be going backwards? All of my watches would start at 0 and go up but this one starts at 60 and goes down as you go clockwise?
You tend to get both clockwise and anticlockwise bezels - to count down or count up. Apparently the version on this Nixon is how it should be on dive watches, and the other way round has been popularised - from what I have read - by non-divers using the bezel to count how long is left on the parking meter. I prefer the 0-60 personally!
I am surprised to learn that the crystals of such watches can get scratched. I have two less expensive watches from an inferior brand called Naviforce, and they have held up pretty well without a scratch on their crystals. However, there are scratches on the back of the bands for a gold-plated one, with wear near the case where the watch bands join. So how is it possible that a scratch-proof crystal like those from Casio can get scratched or have scratches?
Unfortunately they're not scratch proof. It's mineral crystal and highly domed so it protudes a lot which isn't a good combination 😞 However, unscratched it's a very handsome combination!
I obtained the cream colored version. Very nice aesthetic. Strap is very comfortable and simple. Lume is indeed surprisingly bright and long lasting for its type. The height surprised me a bit. A little more chunky than I’m used to but doesn’t protrude too much. Still getting used to that. It looks heavier than it really is. Overall it’s subtly different from what I’ve had and a welcome addition to the collection.
I really love what Timefactors does. Unfortunately I’ve never landed my hands on one yet.
Enjoyed the ever so slightly rambling but informative and engaging review : )
It was a bit rambly wasn't it! 😂
Nice colour ❤
Very informative video to learn about Omega. Just purchased two 751 constellations yesterday
Very nice - like a traditional cycle - messenger bag only made with waxed cotton instead of Cordura.
I got one a couple years ago and yes it's very well made. I would recommend it in your collection of lighters. There are different brands but there all good. Thay make great gifts to.
the sigh at the end while talking about the moon face 😅
😂
Nice watch but they bombed on the bracelet, like they gave up and slapped an aftermarket bracelet from AE. Disappointing but this could be fixed with an aftermarket dive strap. 100m? For the price they could have gone at least 200m if not 300m. As much as I like the design those features pushes it down in my gotta have list. Hardened crystal and not sapphire? Ugh…
Thats why it only costs 275$
Nice watch and video...I bought the 9546 6040 in Birmingham in 1981...100 metres water resistant...I still have the watch but it has no battery at the moment...do you know if a SR43SW will be ok to fit in it?
Cool! I don't have mine any more - wish I hadn't sold it :-( I think that's the right battery 👍
Nice review and great video quality, thanks a lot! it is indeed a good looking watch.
I think I am buying this one. Easier to Use for change and cards than the other style they have. Thank you so much for showing it in deep review :)!
Nice watch man ! Very peaceful indeed!
Nice review, is it large or medium?
This is the large one.
Cheap zip, cheap leather. This wallet is low quality.
Hey! I'm from Portugal and Palaçoulo is a village from the district of Bragança well known from his cutlery, the traditional and historical Portuguese hunting and working knives. José da Cruz is one of the main companies making those amazing premium pieces of history.
Awesome - thanks for the info!
Hello! Is this in the color mellow yellow?
Yes, I think it is 👍
Wow another great review on an interesting watch! U sir just earned yourself a sub! Keep up the cool watch reviews
Thanks very much! 😁
I appreciate this in depth look as this is the only CZcams video I can find about this watch! Thank you! I will be purchasing this watch now because of this video
Glad it was helpful! ☺️
Just bought this beautiful piece, brand-new. So elegant!!
Literally got mine in today as well brand new and unboxed it around the time you posted this comment. I love it
