It’s hilarious when I hear that you buy a Rolex for the resale value, and investment, but you are paying $10,000 plus for one!! Meanwhile, you buy this Steeldive for $80 to $100, and you invest in other investments that will bring you more money than an investment in a Rolex. Yeah, a Rolex may hold its value, go up some, or go down some, but you are still paying close to $10,000, and more. The Steeldive will probably lose some value, but give it 5 to 10 years, it might be considered a wanted timepiece, and could be sold for more, or at what was paid originally, especially with a sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel, 300m water resistance, screw down crown, Seiko NH35 movement, incredible lume, and a much, much more robust construction than a Rolex since right off the line, the Steeldive has a thicker and stronger caseback, with common caseback slots that can easily be removed, and re-tightened with most caseback removing tool. I own a Rollie Sub, and that sucker remains in my safe box, and I sure as hell don’t ever swim with it, or beat it. Too afraid to even wear the darn thing with fears of even getting a scratch on it 😂

I wore Duros for years. Last week I got a Steeldive SD1970 Captain Willard...but now, I want one of these.

Rolex killer🤣🤣 You just can't compare these watches. One is a legend, the forefather of modern dive watches, myriads of companies have copied it - the other is yet another copy, cheap and chinese. If you have ever worn a real Submariner, you'll understand the hype.

Got automatic for $52

The amount of plastic wrapping/packaging the Chinese are using to ship a small simple item as a watch is shameful and disgraceful. Geez are you aware that all that plastic packaging will end up in the ocean? One thing is certainly true. Rolex is very much more respectful of the environment than the Chinese. On a different note, these Steeldive watches are amazing quality for the price, and look super nice too. However, repeating for 100 times that the quality of Steeldive is better than Rolex does not make it true. It's very silly actually. The cyclops on this Steeldive is a no--no for me because the magnification is waaaayyy too much. It just ruins the beautiful dial's look.

Lol. Good times :)

Love the Rolex Bashing^^ hahah

Or just get a Invicta Pro Diver for $60

… and you know what, you get that from a Rolex 🤣

That kid is the Ed McMahon of watches.

Your'e very funny, shure it's not better than a Rolex, but it is a very good Hommage! 👍🏼👋👋👋😅😂

Lovely review. I have a Sd1953 arriving in the mail soon. ❤

Give that toy of watch to your kid. Buy for u self real watch. Some Tissot, Bulova, Citizen..P.S. This is too funny when u say " Rolex "

I own a Rolex Sub (Sultan) and the SD1953 (Cermit). Brand presence and investment value aside, in terms of a quality tool watch the SD is IMPRESSIVE. 1) The SD has a ceramic bezel. Something my older Rolex (16613, c. 1998) does not have; 2) The SD is NOT a certified chronometer...though it's as accurate as my Rolex. Go figure! 3) The Rolex has, hands down, a superior movement by just about every measure. Except that my last Rolex maintenance service cost me $1100. There's that. One could simply buy and replace NH35's every 10 years for a lifetime...and never even consider maintenance fees on an SD. 4) Robbery-a Rolex is so valuable it may invite a thief to take your arm, along with the watch. As for the SD...just hand it over with a smile. The SD1953 is a very well made tool watch that I tend to wear, daily.

Owned this watch for just over a year. It’s been through hell. It is a little “worn” but it still keeps great time. Superb value !

What i like is that a Steeldive 1953 is what a Rolex sub used to be: a toolwatch. Not a safequeen for investment purposes.

You guys are awesome! God bless you both 🏆

Brand from China is a no go

Aww so professional! Brilliant.. Esp with Buddy too! Lol!

This was a fantastic example of great parenting. Just think, if you get him a car for graduation, you can convince him the Toyota corolla is just as good as the 812 ferrari he wanted. Cheers.

That's a different aproach to introducing a watch! Love it.

I have 2 one👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾❤️

Steeldive make great watches. You’ll be getting the ‘Willard’, next. That’s a great watch. I have one. All the best 👍🏾🇬🇧

Lmao when you dropped it. Loved the instant punchline. You just dont get that.. with a Rolex!! My like and sub to this sub homage. And shoutout to your apprentice in training.

To actually think people who never got a rolex in the first place dont really have the right to speak up.

First time watching, and love the father and son duo. Entertaining as well as informative. A good break from a lot of the straight forward reviews I watch. Kudos.

Thanks for the fun, lighthearted review! It was great listening to you and your son talk about this cool watch, joke about Rolex and enjoy making the video together! I recently purchased a Steeldive SD-1972 (Seiko 6105-8000 King Turtle homage) with the Seiko NH36 day/date movement inside. It isn't quite identical to this Captain Willard homage, but very close and it wears just as perfectly. The overall QC, fit and finish and looks of it are astounding at the price being asked. It's become my favourite every day piece in my collection, regardless of brand, movement or price. These watches are just astounding, and every example I've seen in person has been better built and had better alignment than any official Seiko I've ever owned. Keep sharing your love of watches with each other and having fun sharing interests. If you continue making reviews together, that would be even better! All the best!

Two more victims of the $100,000,000 per year Rolex propaganda machine. 🪦 🪦

Unfortunately, your son will still want a Rolex when he grows up.😂😂😂

What a fascinating accent, to my ear it sounds 80% English and 20% Canadian (I live in England) ..are you ex-pat British? Great entertaining review, I have two Steeldives, they're very good value. All the best to you both, thumbs up. btw I actually tried to get through the clingfilm packaging on mine with a Stihl chainsaw because my scissors broke, the chainsaw is also broken and I used the unwrapped clingfilm to tow my car out of some mud ...so yes, great packaging.

These guys are jokers, it’s not better than a Rolex, better value maybe. Stop taking the piss and do a proper review. Terrible…

he musta had a fake rolex the way he bad talks them.

the bubble wrap was worth the price alone !!!!!

The comments are great. 😂 Although there are one or people who take life, and themselves, far too seriously. 🙄

F A N T A S T I C ! ! !

Hahahahaha I love this “who would pick a Rolex over that” .

hahahaha amazing duo

Lol!!! "...so you can look at how to improve your submariner models." Absolutely hilarious. Well done, you two. A shining example of how fathers and sons should get along.

Enjoyed that. I'm a Rolex owner, a number of them over the years, including a DRSD. Sometimes people take themselves too seriously. Loved the review and if I had an extra sub sitting around, it'd be yours. Well done getting your child interested in horology.

Well, that was different -- fun review. I have one on the way picked up on Ali sale this past week.

Lol :) great video

If you spend 10k for a watch, you definitely have no common sense. 🤣😂

So cute how you brainwash your kid to be a Rolex hater. What other distorted ideas have you forced into his young impressionable mind?

5 mins to watch you unpack 🙄

Hehe

Rolex owner: I can afford it, you don't. Homage owner: You're silly.

😂

Having watched this video several times I am of the opinion that what we're seeing is about 2% watch unboxing, 8% dad humor, and about 90% skillful parenting. Kudos to this clever dad for teaching his young son that one does not need to pay Rolex-level prices to buy a quality watch.

I watched this to watch watches that watch watchers watch when watching watch watchers watches✌️🧐🇬🇧

The thing is, $10K doesn't get you a Submariner. You need all the moneys plus two years of kissing the authorized dealer's ring to get a Submariner. I'm going to buy a Submariner homage one of these days, and this model is on the short list. I might even go for a quartz-powered model so I can add it to my grab-and-go box.
