I’ve had this watch for long enough now to really like the size, the flat crystal very little glare, visibility is great. And of course that work horse movement. Thank you one again!
Just got mine and I must say I’m very pleased. Bezel takes effort to move it, and has no play. Just the way I like it. Had a Casio that failed, so utilized the black rubber band and gives it such a vintage look! And comfortable. Thank you for this content. 10 days from Ali Express.
Hi guys, thanks for watching. I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts on this one in the comments .... despite the issues on this one, I can't help but like it! Cheers! (CORRECTION: Apologies! In the video I said that the bezel is 120 clicks but it's 90 clicks).
Nice review, very on point with some of the issues with the watch. It seems Cadisen is regrouping itself and have started to offer some nicer pieces. I have their new 38mm sub and just like you 62MAS homage, it does have some issues. The alignment of the bezel insert is a bit off, and on mine, the bracelet is supposed to be a vintage style rivet, but the clasp is not suited for the bracelet. I was able to get a decent fit, but if I had to use the micro adjust in the clasp, I can't due to the rivets which are been blocked by the clasp. Anyway, you homage is close to the original at 38mm case size, I do agree with you, they should have brushed the case instead. However, the thin case is reminiscent of the "skin divers" from the late 60's, they were used for light suba diving not deep sea diving. Well, keep up the great work!
@@lpsalsaman Cheers mate, that's appreciated. I've also got my eye on their vintage sub homage that you own and I agree that Cadisen are making some more appealing watches these days. Thanks for watching!
@@TimeForAnotherWatch You are most welcome. The sub homage is nice, you will find it appealing except for those things I pointed out. Hopefully if you review it, maybe Cadisen will listen and correct some of those things. Anyway cheers!
I think cadisan is a very underrated brand. They make simple watches that work and tend to be low on the bling scale. I have several of their watches and they are just very solid and simple. A lot of alliexpress brands are just too blingy for me. They are my preferred brand…particularly in this price range.
Quite surprised by this one, especially the dial colour. Definitely works better than I thought it would have. I think it's a solid offering for the price point.
Cheers mate, it also surprised me, the dial colour works really well with this case shape. The price is competitive, compared to other compact 62MAS homages on offer. I was intending to review this one and flip it but it's a keeper for the forseeable future, as it wears really well. Thanks for watching!
I like the dial colour. I get it, they went with the flat crystal and added a raised chapter ring or rehaut which 62MAS homages normally don't have. I like the aluminium bezel. Oh and the logo, Pagani Design seem to have understood that less is more, they only use their applied logo without additional Pagani Design text which looks so good!
The dial colour is the star for me on this one and I've got used to the aluminium bezel, so much so that I can't imagine it with ceramic now. Thanks for watching Alex
@@TimeForAnotherWatch It's something I don't know very well. Why do you say aluminum bezel is better than ceramic bezel? Aluminum bezel is prone to external impacts and scratches, so... That's why I hesitated to buy this watch.
I've had my eye on this Cadisen (on the bracelet) since it was released. I thought about buying the San Martin, but just couldn't justify paying 5x the price of this Cadisen. The Specs are absolutely unbelievable: Stainless steel case & bracelet, Seiko NH35 movement, sapphire crystal, signed screwdown crown, solid links and endlinks, screw-down pins and a milled clasp for well under $100! I find it hard to believe these guys are making any profits at all...
Absolutely lovely. This watch looks fantastic with the cream-colored dial, and I absolutely agree that the silcone strap is the way to go. I just put one in my cart...can't wait to get my hands on it! Thank you for bringing it to our attention, and for the detailed review.
Cheers, that's appreciated and you're very welcome. I couldn't agree more, that cream dial was a great idea by Cadisen. Just in case you didn't know, an AliExpress sale starts Monday 22 August, so you might want to wait till then before checking out. Thanks for watching!
Having worn this watch for a week, I can say it’s the best value Aliexpress watch I’ve purchased so far. The fit and finish and quality of materials is just ridiculous for the price. Bezel alignment is perfect and the applied indices are razor crisp. The framed date window is without flaw and the date alignment is bang on. Movement accuracy is good as well. It loses four seconds a day. My only criticism is that the lume on the hands is very weak. Overall I’m chuffed. If you’re thinking about buying this watch just do it. This Cadisen would be my first choice if I wanted to gift someone a terrific watch without completely emptying my wallet.
Just got my cream dial in….absolutely loving it….everything aligned and I actually like the bracelet and can’t find any flaw at this point….+3/+4 per day in 5 different positions is quite nice too!
Hi Alan, thank you for nice reviewed. Let me remember this watches already on my carts about a month ago. Now I’ll check out for good homage 62mass 👍👍👍 Good job Alan 💪🏼👌
Cheers mate, I can definitely recommend getting a 62MAS homage. This Cadisen is very good for the price. But if you're willing to spend more, then the Seestern and San Martin are both worth considering as well. Thanks for watching mate!🙏👊
Nice piece and nice review! fair criticisms, especially at the price point. I do really like that cream dial, that's the one I would have gone for as well.
Cheers Sixto, it's the first Cadisen I've wanted to buy for sometime, I also like the look of their new retro sub homage, hopefully they can keep up the momentum. Thanks for watching mate 👍
I ordered the gray dial version of this watch during the recent 11/11 sale. One of the advantages Cadisen has over the other brands is...the name of the brand. "Cadisen" just looks and sounds so much better than Addiesdive, Mysterious Code, Tactical Frog, Berny, etc. Also, the Cadisen logo looks sharp. As much as I like the watches manufactured by those other brands, I'm reluctant to have a watch with such clunky branding strapped to my wrist.
Cheers Angel, glad you like it mate, same for me, I really like the colours on this one and it's a versatile one that works with a lot of different straps. Thanks for watching, always great to hear from you!
Nice review of a good looking watch, thanks for that. In my opinion sometimes people forget, that it is a Homage...and you have to ask yourself, does the original Seiko 62mas does have a ceramic bezel insert? no.... Does the OG have a domed Saphire Crystal? No... I think, Cadisen has done many thinks right, not using a ceramic bezel, a Saphire Crystal and AR coating 😎👍🏼
Cheers! These are all very good points and it is definitely true that many people prefer homages of vintage watches to retain the character of the original watch. Thanks for watching 👍😁
Cheers Steve, I've got more and more used to the aluminium bezel insert ... the dial colour looks retro, so I'm not sure that ceramic would be a good match. But, yes, that clasp choice is a bit of shocker ... it's belongs on a homage to another brand altogether! Thanks for watching mate!
I would change this dial for a Seiko one but I hate the fact it doesn’t have a minute track because all the AM dials do and it would look shit with a fully indexed bezel, chapter ring and dial
Your concern about the hands not being very legible is very valid. My cadisen arrived just yesterday, but unfortunately fitted with the wrong set of hands, probably from the blue or black dial version wherein the hands are polished. The polished hands with large part of lume on the cream dial really destroy the legibility on poor lighting. Let's see how the refund policy works. Otherwise, the watch is perfectly sized for my small 16 cm wrist and the rubber strap is very comfortable. Even the bezel alignment is good on my watch. Is there any good 18mm aliexpress steel bracelet you could recommend for this watch instead of the cadisen's own bracelet? Was thinking of jubilee or beads of rice style or even san martin SN045G style bracelet might go well with the retro design.
Sorry to hear that they sent this with the wrong hands, hope you're able to sort something out with AliEx. I'm also looking for a BOR type bracelet, if I find a good one, I'll post back here, thanks for watching!
Cheers and thanks for watching! Good question about the logo. It could be the camera angle. Their logo is a bit of an unusual shape, so its not easy to tell what they'd regard as it being straight. I've had one of their watches before and as far as I recall, it looked the same, so maybe this is the way it should look.
From the close ups the top point of the logo does look to be slightly right of centre of the 12 marker. I would've preferred it with just the Cadisen text. Nice looking watch though with that cream dial, it did stand out from a page of Cadisen watches I saw.
@@garycollard1981 It could be very slightly off centre, in every day use, on the wrist, it's not obvious, one way or the other. I agree that just the name would work better. Cheers and thanks for watching!
@@juniorjohnson5961 Hi there and thank you for the support 🙏👊 This one has a few shortcomings but overall I enjoyed it and I think it's worth it. There's no other 62MAS homage of this case size in the price range. There's also the Seestern which I've also reviewed and it is better but it costs more. Thanks for watching 👍👍
Sorry i have to say that my watch has a mirror polished lugs, unlike yours. Also i have the model number on the back case instead of the asterisks in your case.
No need to be sorry mate, I'm really glad to hear that the finishing on your case is better than mine, thanks for updating me on this. Maybe mine's a slightly earlier version than yours and Cadisen made some corrections thereafter ... but I'm just guessing. Thanks for watching!
I noticed the asterisks and wondered if that was a stand-in for a then undecided model number. I have a soft-spot for Cadisen for some reason, but these little areas of inattention keep me from buying.
It's approximately 31mm but I've not had the crystal out to measure it exactly. You might want to try contacting the seller for the exact measurement. Thanks for watching 👍👍
If you want this watch in size 40/20, I would definitely recommend the Tandorio version of this 62Mas homage. I have both this watch and the Tandorio and both are amazing for the price. The Tandorio comes with a lovely metal bracelet too, albeit one with a pressed clasp (which I swapped out for a milled one). It's around 90 bucks on AE at the moment but if you wait for a sale, you'll be able to pick it up for less. I paid 77€ for mine. I also hear good things about the Seastern and then San Martin, but those cost two to three times more.
@@TimeForAnotherWatch so in your opinion... Given I am not a diver and just like the style... Are we getting 3 x the quality/value for 3+ X the price, with an almost identical Seestern or San Martin/others?
@@Clarioner1 I've also reviewed both the Seestern czcams.com/video/Qg_ckIpRNdI/video.html and the San Martin czcams.com/video/b0xchVej-lo/video.html The San Martin is my favourite of the 3, with the Seestern next and then the Cadisen. The build quality and finishing of the San Martin and Seestern is definitely better ... but so they should be, as they cost a fair bit more. However, in terms of sheer value for money, it's hard to beat the Cadisen, now that the price has dropped. I think I saw them for under $60 at one point, which is great value IMHO.
I've only measured it from the front and 28.5mm is the approx size. I've not opened the case to obtain a more accurate measurement. If you need to know for sure, for example for modding, you might want to contact the seller to ask if they can confirm this. Thanks for watching!
The top section of the dial is all over the place. First, as noted, the bezel is misaligned with the chapter ring but the large 12 rectangle marker is offset to the right and even further to the right is the cadisen logo which not only is misaligned vertically but it's also tilted by almost 5 degrees clockwise to the cadisen type. Looks like it was put together by a 5 year old tbh.
I've looked at a photos of the 12 index with grid lines superimposed over it and it doesn't look misaligned to me. Agreed that the bezel is slightly off, as discussed in the video. As someone else has previously commented, the logo doesn't appear to be fully aligned with the 12 index. The Cadisen logo is an awkward shape and I think they should stop using it completely. In every day usage, on the wrist, it's difficult to notice these alignment issues and they haven't spoilt my enjoyment of the watch, although I appreciate that for some people, they're still not acceptable, even on a budget watch. Thanks for watching and commenting.
