Micro brands coming out of Hong Kong and Singapore are putting out some amazing watches. Swiss makers are just putting out “heritage” pieces because they don’t have to be creative and just digging deep into there bag of reissues.
Just got mine in the Midnight Navy. It's a really nice watch. I think the Azure looks better in your video than it does on the website - really like it!
@@douglaswong3418 I was looking at a Boldr Freediver for a while, but then this one went on such a sweet price I switched, the sale was just too good. (Honestly, the only improvement the Boldr had was being 2mm smaller in diameter, everything else about the Boettger seems better.)
I grabbed an orange one for $359.00. I am having issue though with changing from the bracelet to the Rubber strap. The screwdriver they sent was usless. I got better tools but can still only get one screw loose and not the other. Even brought it to a jewler and they could not get the bracelet off. Very dissapointed.
Every wrist is different in terms of preference but in the case of being an issue of wearability, I don't see why this one wouldn't be okay on more slender wrists, it does a good job of wrapping around and conformity to the wrist.
Currently this equates to almost $800 in the uk, then import/ vat for a microbrand with a 9015, no ratcheting clasp and a pressed fold out extension.. there are so many better alternatives. How can this value be considered ‘pretty darn good’ as an unbiased review, please.
I'm not in the UK, I'm in the US and there's currently a 25% off discount, so yeah considering you're getting both an integrated bracelet and rubber strap, in a nice case, plus a sapphire crystal, 300m WR and 9015, it IS pretty darn good. I didn't say is was a steal or class leading but yeah, for around $500 and some change, it's a lot of watch.

Nice watch! Subscribed! I recently ordered the orange version for $517 with the 25% off sale on Spinnaker's website. Cannot wait for it to come in.
Just managed to snap one of these up for $359USD, looking forward to receiving it. My wrist's on the smaller side so I'm hoping it suits 🤞
I'm also considering it now. Usd 359 is a very attractive price!

Where did u get it at that price?
Fun watch for the beach. No worries about sand and water
I would be surprised if they moved 50 pieces at this price point. This is Swiss movement territory.

Cool! A bit silly to put a divers watch in a waterproof box though. Lol
I like it! The color looks nothing like the pics on their website, though, which is confusing.
Hi Mark - thanks for the video. Would the lug-2-lug width be an issue for more slender wrist sizes?

Integrated bracelets: Just say "no"!

I got one for $359 USD, seems pretty good value to me!
👀
I find the hands horrendous.
Extremely bad value especially compared to Brands like glycine
Glycine is now bought by invicta…no thanks
Glycines don't come in bright orange tho
