  • Everybody loved the Seiko SKX007 and the smaller SKX013 but they are discontinued and expensive to get a hold of now. After reviewing the smaller Tandorio a few weeks ago, Tandorio have now issued a larger version which will suit everyone's wrist size.
    41mm is a perfect fit for small wrist sizes and large.
    This Tandorio diver at undert £90 has to be one of the most budget friendly alternatives to the beloved Seiko SKX007 and SKX013!
    get one here.

    Great job. I agree with you on the buckle and also thought the 'jingly jangly' looked great.

      Hi there and thanks for watching. Yes unfortunate they did not go with a similar style to the smaller version. You'll notice I call the bracelet jingly jangly as calling it by its other name could now get me into trouble! Remember to subscribe:)

    I'm wearing the mini version now and am very happy with it. I would buy this larger version also but it's missing the day of the week compared to the original. I might get the Heimdallr homage one day though because it does have the weekday.
    This is still a nice watch for the money though.

      Had mine for a week now and it's -5 seconds (for the whole 7 days, that is)!
      Downsides: crown is misaligned on mine, there are tiny imperfections on the Pepsi bezel (which is definitely aluminium and not ceramic) and the lume on the hands, as opposed to the dial, is utter shite.

    If they would make a 44mm for my 7.5 inch wrist, I would be in love. But, its too small for me at 41mm.
    42mm is my absolute minimum diameter for my cheap-ish beater watches.
    For my Swiss watches I go down to 40mm though. 😂

    • @johnswatchjoint
      @johnswatchjoint  Рік тому +4

      Wow. 44mm is VERY large for 7.5 inch wrist but hey, everyone has their own preference:) I used to wear 42 mm but have found for tool watches that is too big for me. The ideal tool watch size for me now is 36mm. Again that is my choice based on activities, sport, DIY etc. Remember to subscribe ;)
