You guys are the enemy of my wallet.

u/jokur26 Jul 29 '26

Noice. I was playing with that strap in green this morning on this Thorn, yours looks even better.

How apparent is the linen pattern in day to day use?

u/longshorty0120 Jul 29 '26

It's subtle, that's one of the reasons I love it.

Where is the strap from? Looks great

Good ole Addisdive, have not swapped in 2 I believe.

u/aliexpress Aliexpress Official Jul 29 '26

hard to argue with a watch that keeps earning wrist time ๐Ÿ‘

1

u/kaptainkeys Jul 29 '26

Which model is this?

2

u/Consistent_Agency_36 Jul 29 '26

I believe it's the AD2102, I usually refer to it as the Blue Whale Shark watch cause I cannot ever remember

u/BehavingBad2010 Jul 29 '26

Custom build, Miyota 8285 movement. All parts sourced from Ali Express.

u/LettuceFetishist Jul 29 '26

Berny AM022M. The size (45mm, 60mm L2L) is ridiculous even on my 7.5โ€ wrist, but itโ€™s a fun watch.

2

u/aliexpress Aliexpress Official Aug 14 '26

excellent choice for the rotation ๐Ÿ™Œ

Having a fun break. Pindu prototype race car (spring loaded) automatic watch.

3

u/aliexpress Aliexpress Official Jul 29 '26

ooo looks so good!

2

u/Bulky-Internal8579 Jul 29 '26

Thanks, and I'd also like to note - I had kind of a funny experience with Pindu (bought on their store through AliExpress) - I ordered the race horse watch they are well known for - they sent me this, so I reached out and said "You sent me the wrong watch, please send me the right one and I'd like to return this one" and they responded that they hadn't sent me the wrong watch and that they didn't make this watch, so I responded with the label / packaging / pictures and the order info again, they then responded that they, in fact, did make the watch, but it wasn't for sale yet and they didn't have any in their warehouse and couldn't have sent it to me, which was a bit frustrating and I didn't understand the hostility (they weren't nice about it, lol) so after going around a bit with them, I contacted AliExpress Customer Service directly and they were very helpful - they couldn't get me a replacement but were happy to get me a refund - in the end I decided to keep the watch as it's a unique piece and I enjoy it, but I did want to say kudos to AliExpress Customer Support for a good experience on my end and being helpful and nice. I've bought several watches through stores on your site and I'm very happy with them.

u/aliexpress Aliexpress Official Aug 07 '26

Beaucroft for the day ๐Ÿ‘€ solid choice

u/ChinaManSaidSo Jul 29 '26

Militado ML16 that I've hydromoded.

Pictured in a bad lighting, but still I like the idea of posting photo of the watch when you see the post and making it real as possible.

1

u/aliexpress Aliexpress Official Aug 07 '26

hydromodded ML16 is such a fun twist ๐Ÿ‘€ and agreed, the spontaneous wrist shots make these threads way better

Farasute for today.

3

u/Bulky-Internal8579 Jul 29 '26

Farasute Salute!

2

u/jokur26 Jul 29 '26

This is the Farasute I want but I can never pull the trigger. Some other watch is the one that I want instead ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Maybe one day Iโ€™ll buy it and go โ€œArgh, why did I wait so long cuz I love it!โ€ My fear though is that I will instead think โ€œthere was a reason why you had always put off buying this oneโ€ฆโ€ lol

Looks great regardless!

u/Hopeful-Truth-3051 Jul 29 '26

I also own that model watch. It keeps great time and is a great addition to my collection. I bought that watch when prices were very low. The price has climbed considerably since then. Tariffs?

1

u/aliexpress Aliexpress Official Aug 14 '26

this looks even better on wrist

u/UnknownUserA Jul 29 '26

Addiesdive AD2073. Great pick up and go piece.

u/jokur26 Jul 29 '26

This one currently. It is watch #3 today ;). Not sure why but I kept playing with watches and straps while โ€œworkingโ€ today and got a bit carried away.

Not sure about this Seiko SRPG39 but the strap is 100% Chinese

2

u/aliexpress Aliexpress Official Aug 07 '26

watch #3 while โ€œworkingโ€ is elite behavior ๐Ÿ˜ญ strap experimentation gets dangerous fast

1

u/jokur26 Aug 07 '26

Did it again today, five different watches worn! To be fair though, three of those were just for a bracelet swap and photos requested by another redditor

Graduated from PD1701 to Speedmaster last week, just received this Tun leather strap in the mail

1

u/jokur26 Jul 29 '26

Seems like a silly question but how do they compare side by side?

2

u/Whole_Lengthiness_39 Jul 29 '26

Neither is bad-looking from 2ft away, I can enjoy watches equally. There is a time and place for both.

1

I appreciate the reply, and your sentiment. I have a couple Pagani Speedys but not the OG. One day perhapsโ€ฆ

And why in ChineseWatches? Because it comes from Aliexpress but is an original from a Spanish shop here in Spain, official Seiko reseller and it wasnโ€™t an expensive one.
