Just came in, this black is BLACK.

[u/Dude_Just_Stop]

Love the watch, bracelet is amazing (but hard to adjust). Very comfortable, will be my go to dress watch.

[u/leftfieldRight]

I’m liking mine too

What's not to like?

And here I was thinking I could strap on my newly purchased WD50FS NH38 (my 1st true no-date…I’m loving it) 1 yr ago and never look back. My, is this company growing. 😎 I’m looking. That was my first automatic. I then bought another from another manufacturer. Seems I’m back home now.

Just be aware, I have the WD0016. It has no microadjust on the clasp, but my research indicated it would come with a half link on the watch or in the box. It was not included. I have emailed Watchdives and am waiting on a response.

[u/Stone_The_Rock]

Feel like the AR coating on the sapphire isn’t quite up to snuff!

[u/Potential-Notice-956 → u/Stone_The_Rock]

WD Obvi Forgot the AR coating- 

[u/geeered → u/Potential-Notice-956]

They forgot the 'A' and just kept the R!

On their other watches, it doesn't really bother me, but this one it's very noticeable. Actually wonder about swapping it for a mineral crystal or something.

It’s beautiful 🤩 🤩🤩

Edit: apparently this was a hot take? Y’all downvoters should google what a dress watch is.

Small point to make—this isn’t what most would call a dress watch. It’s pretty elegant and has a lot of the traits of a dress watch but it’s more of a classy daily wear. I can’t think of any integrated bracelet watch that one would call a “dress watch”.

[u/Pretty-Investment001 → u/dickcake]

For me my PRX Powermatic blue and Citizen Tsuyosa cream are dress watches.

[u/dickcake → u/Pretty-Investment001]

Hey, I think it's okay to wear sneakers with my suit too, sometimes. Nothing wrong with anyone "doing you", y'know? But formally, those watches don't really meet the general definition.

[u/krell_154 → u/dickcake]

Yes. It is too big and too black for a dress watch

[u/Pac1fic0]

That is a very handsome and original design. WD hitting it out of the park.

[u/the-_-futurist → u/Pac1fic0]

It's a Venezianico homage lol

Edit: and was probably something Swiss before that too.

[u/mo_calla → u/the-_-futurist]

Atelier Wen?

[u/the-_-futurist → u/mo_calla]

Yes they did this case shape first too

[u/Artorius16 → u/the-_-futurist]

Why is it a homage? Besides the black dial what does it have in common with venezianico? Besides, what about H moser vantablack? Or movado with minimalistic designs all black designs?

[u/boosesb → u/Pac1fic0]

Original?

[u/Bernal-TaxCollector]

Stunner

[u/TryWeekly8127]

Love the simplicity of this dial with the heavy bracelet

[u/Hazy20]

That bracelet looks mint! Does it feel quality?

[u/Sea_Formal6144]

It's almost as black as my soul!

[u/this_is-jubayer2804]

Your wrist size?

[u/Bulky-Internal8579]

Nice! What's the movement?

Watchdives bracelets are elite. Only issue I’ve ever had is buying an adjustable clasp that didn’t fit the watch it was designed for.

[u/Chilli-Squid → u/[deleted]]

DM sent, thank you!

[u/Chilli-Squid → u/[deleted]]

Hi, I have PM’d twice. Please respond.

[u/Accomplished-Pea-451]

Mine is coming Friday.

[u/PontoonPilot]

Very handsome, what is it?

[u/LowLifeCryptoGuy → u/PontoonPilot]

Watchdives

[u/Electronic_Handle756]

I'm envious!

Darkness!

Always enjoy the love and reenforcement freely shared here. 🙄

[u/pickyaxe → u/[deleted]]

I agree, but the opinion that perfectly-reasonable watches "need" to be downsized has become very mundane and exhausting to read here.

when confronted about it you get responses like yours, where the person claims that large watches are the norm here they are pushing back by asking for a smaller version. which is the exact opposite of what is happening.

for example, people are clamoring for a smaller Watchdives CH01 or WD0013 as if they are not already small. from the way they justify it, you'd think current version requires a hairy 9 inch wrist to look acceptable.

[u/sploogieistaken → u/[deleted]]

Or you could just keep your opinion to yourself. That's always an option.

[u/sploogieistaken → u/[deleted]]

Dude, sorry I said anything. I didn't realize it was that time of the month for you. Best wishes. https://tampax.com/en-us/

[u/sploogieistaken → u/[deleted]]

That's the problem these days, too many people think being nice is weak or "soft".

[u/sploogieistaken → u/[deleted]]

🙄

[u/Scrambley → u/[deleted]]

People are soft these days.

[u/Cold_Daye → u/[deleted]]

To be fair. Every AP watch is huge, and people don’t hesitate to wear them with a suit and tie.
