Automatic Watch Diver 200 M Mens Watch Luminescent Mechanical NH35A Analog Stainless Steel

Outside of a watch telling time and telling me at a minimum the date, I don't know much about watches. I have had several over the years and even a Rolex because I thought it was cool to have a very expensive watch. Now in hindsight, an absolute waste of money, the Rolex that is. This unit has an excellent, perfectly aligned bezel that is also snug when rotating. Some have described it as being hard to turn and I disagree. It is not loose at all. Zero wobble. Zero play left or right. It feels smooth when rotating. The crystal is flat but raised a bit. The bezel insert is ceramic and simply looks immaculate. The crown, though I wish were a bit larger, it is HEAVILY guarded by beefy crown guards. The crown is perfectly centered. The underside has been described as being a bit abrasive and I have to agree but I DO NOT feel it affecting my wrist whatsoever. The case is, like the rest of the watch, simply beautiful. Polished on the sides, and where the strap connects, but the top left and right are brushed. Beautiful. It is so far in 5 hours slower by 2 seconds. The lume is stunning. Super bright. Does it last a long time? No. But to me it does not matter because of ALL the other incredible things about the watch. The strap starts out thick at the lugs, but thins out at the ends. It is comfortable, but maybe in time I will get something more substantial, and a strap that does not taper. Once seated on the wrist, the watch barely moves but be aware that it has weight. I personally cannot imagine using this watch with a metal bracelet. For me it would be too heavy. All things considered, for 100 bucks, I am astonished at the quality of this watch. Absolutely amazed at how so much more incredibly expensive it looks, feels, and functions.

I have been wearing my Addiesdive Captain Willard wristwatch daily for a little over two months. It is unbelievably accurate which is due to the tested and true Seiko automatic movement. The lume is bright and long lasting. The synthetic sapphire crystal is durable and clear. Additionally, the anti-reflective coating on the crystal is extremely effective. The ceramic bezel insert is hard-wearing while also providing a rich, upmarket appearance. The case itself is solid and features a perfect combination of brushed and polished surfaces. My model came with the rubber strap. It was okay but the watch is better served with the aftermarket tropic style strap which I switched the original out for. The lume on the ceramic bezel is bluish while the lume on the dial is greenish. I like this feature as it provides a clear contrast between the dial and the bezel when in darkness as well as offering a nice complexity to its night time character. However, some may dislike the differing lume colors for being inconsistent. The one and only drawback, at least for me, was the case back. Though it is handsome with its depiction of the diver's mask and crossed spearguns comprising the Addiesdive logo, it is also rough and ever so slightly sharp. The result is a very minute discomfort thar takes a little getting used to. It also has a tendency to remove the hair from your wrist. Overall, this downside is quite minor when considering the high quality of the watch otherwise. Still, it would be nice for the manufacturer to address this detail. In conclusion, this is a fantastic time piece that competes easily with watches far above its modest price tag.

Beautiful watch, and is keeping accurate time.

This is a great watch ! I was considering buying the Seiko SPB153J1 the modern Willard, but its over $1600 here on Amazon. The other modern Seiko re issues are even more expensive such as the SLA versions. I wanted a Willard but I am not going to spend that kind of money. Enter this watch. I was blown away by the case finishing and overall quality. This is my first Addiesdive watch and I am very impressed. I own a modern Seiko Turtle and this watch is very similar. Instead of spending the crazy money for a re issue from Seiko and get this instead, unless you just have to own the Seiko. In truth, this watch is better than a vintage Seiko 6105 because it has screw down crown and the NH35 movement is a better, modern movement than the 6105 movement used in the vintage 6105 Seiko Willard from the 1970's. So I would get a modern Seiko reissue of the Willard, if you MUST own a Seiko, but get this if you don't want to spend over $1K. Its that good and that close to the Seiko.

Great entry level diver to use for your daily. I've taken this thing to the beach, out in the woods, and to the gym, and it's held up to everything. Durable and accurate. Beautiful watch, and amazing quality at this price point.

This watch should cost 5 times as much. I’ma scuba instructor and use this watch to tone my dives along with a computer. The bezel is solid and aligned correctly. The lume lays for 10 hours and is so bright I have to put it in a drawer at night. The movement is quiet and smooth. The power reserve is correct and true. The dial is beautiful, really beautifully created with raised indices and 3D effects. The strap is incredibly confortable and true to period. The finish is flawless and clean. There is good weight to this watch as a dive watch should have. This is really an amazingly beatiful and solidly useful watch.

Love Addiesdive watches. Very accurate and well made. Fits very comfortable.

for a 100.00 watch. I was quite surprised. At first I was apprehensive, but the I decided well ok but if I don't like it I'll return it . well this is definitely a keeper. sapphire Cystal which is scratch resistant the best you can get, hell my Seiko srp777 I have now don't even offer that. very comfortable Strap, the lume is great glows like a Christmas tree though it doesn't have the same duration as my Seiko srp777.The mechanism actually hacks and hand winds and it has a 24 jewel NH35 movement, the build is solid. Runs a hair fast, but not a deal breaker, like my srp777 as the movement ages, it will start to run slower but I'm talking years down the road.( my srp777 is12 years old). I definitely recommend this watch. well worth the money
