    This is definitely my favourite quartz watch I have owned

    James, your enthusiasm and good nature come through strongly and are a pleasure to watch. Thanks for the review. That’s one more Dan Henry on my list of must have watches!

      Thanks for WATCHing. I keep looking at more of his watches.

    This is a good looking Dan Henry. Good value & I really like the packing too.
    A thorough & well thought out review, thanks James.

    This is an absolutely great looking watch. Your review James has made even more determined to pick one of these up. 👏🏻

      That’s great. I really feel very confident recommending this one. It’s so well made and looks fantastic.
      Just consider other strap options. Which is not really a big issue.

    I’m really trying to decide between this one and the 1937 with rose gold hands. Both are fantastic.

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  8 місяців тому +1

      They have some great options available.

    I think it's his best looking watch currently.
    I had the 1963 evil panda, but sold it, and that was quite nice.
    Its okay to have some quartz pieces in the collection anyway, though we probably don't bond with them as much. I do like my quartz chrono's when I go on the motorcycle though, light, quick grab and go, and something less to worry about if I come off the bike! lol

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +1

      Absolutely. This is the best quality that I’ve had experience with.

    Love this piece. Very well finished like all Dan Henry watches. On my wish list 👌🏼

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +2

      I really am impressed by the looks and quality. Well done to DH for making a great watch.

    Haven't tried a Dan Henry yet but this one looks really nice. Thanks James.

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +1

      I’m really impressed. I’m not normally drawn to quartz watches. But there is something a bit special about this one.
      I’m sure his others are great too.

  • @WesWatchRoom

    Usually I'm not drawn to busy dials but there's just something about this that I really like. Looks awesome. Might have to see about trying one at some point

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +1

      I felt the same way. Initially I was drawn to one of his other models. But there was just something about this one.

    DH really takes some beating at their price points. Not gone for this one yet but I have eight others. Unique approach that makes vintage looks available to all watch enthusiasts. An excellent review.

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks Alex. Wow eight. I would love to own more and put them side by side.

    I think this is my favourite Dan Henry, if it had an st19 in it I would surely have one already.

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +1

      It really is amazing

    • @tedblack2415
      @tedblack2415 2 роки тому +2

      My thoughts exactly , it'd be the mechanical chrono i'd need no longer look for .

    • @WATCHingJames

    Dan Henry has awesome watches I'm thinking about getting one just don't know which one yet

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +2

      That’s not a bad problem to have. He has a great range. I’m sure I’ll get another at some point.

  • @Bojo1984

    Great video and great review...It is great looking watch but my favorite Dan Hanry is 1939 with silver dial and blued hands👌

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +2

      Thank you. Yes. I love that one too. I also really like his 1937 silver.
      So many to choose from. Not a bad thing.

  • @johanbertilsson2213

    It is a good looking watch. Does it gave a mecha quartz movment? I like the retro style of it, it helps the retro look that it does not have a date complication.

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +1

      It contains the Miyota 6S20 quartz movement. It is a very nice watch and feels like it has some substance to it.

  • @mikehawton805

    Great review, I have been interested in DH watches for a while but just haven't pulled the trigger. Maybe worth another look.

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks Mike. If you like the vintage look and are ok with quartz then I don’t think there is much better on the market. Especially at this price.

  • @AnyoxB.D.

    If DH is already using Asian Quartz movements he should really consider using the ST19. Would seek a lot more to mechanical nerds

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  Рік тому +2

      This one with that movement would really elevate it for me too.

    According to tgv it’s goat leather. Have a listen to the urban gentry review of the 1945 for more comments.

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you. I do try to keep up with his videos

  • @hippie_4762
    @hippie_4762 Рік тому +1

    Would it kill Dan Henry to throw a bit more AR coating on there, surely there's some headroom in the cost there. I'd pay it.

      It is really nice and really well made.

    nice review, as always, thanks! On the DH website it clearly states that the strap is leather!

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +2

      I’m sure there is leather in it. But does not have that strong leather smell that you get will really nice straps.
      The strap really is ok. But when you put this watch on something a bit better quality is becomes an amazing watch.

    Thanks for the review. I think it's my second favorite DH after the 1972. I do find it interesting that the bezel only has 12 clicks when there are marks on the bezel at 15 minute intervals; I expected a 48-click bezel to match the bezel markings.

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +1

      It is a bit odd but certainly looks good and the action on the bezel is really nice.

    According to the site, strap is leather 😈

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  2 роки тому +1

      Yes I’m sure it is leather. It’s just not a great leather strap
