The Erebus Ascent - Could it be the best watch under $500?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
- Check out the Ascent here - erebuswatches....
NOTE - PRE-ORDER PRICING ENDS MAY 20TH - GET IN BEFORE THEN!!
In todays video, we are taking a look at some pre-production models from Erebus Watches - the micro-brand founder by Jody @JustOneMoreWatch & his business partner Stevie Parker.
This is their second release and is a GADA (Go Anywhere, Do Anything) watch. With 12 models to choose from, 24 if you count the bracelet options, you are sure to find a version that takes your fancy!
JOMW kindly lent me the three models to take a look at, the Aventurine dial (my favourite), the black enamel and also the Blue Helix....all of the models have their own personalities & could almost be regarded as completely different watches...they certainly wear like that anyway!
At 39mm, this watch will fit most wrists & the superlative case finishing evokes hints of Grand Seiko, whilst the hands & indices have an Omega Aqua Terra feel to them.
Inside the case we have a Miyota 9015 which breaks from the mould of using the Seiko NH35A, it's a higher rate as well with 28,800 beats per hour.
Last but not least, the watch has 100m water resistance & is backe with a two-year warranty!
All in all, this new release from the lads shows just how good a sub $500 watch can be & certainly puts some of the more well-known luxury brands to shame. Great work chaps...I can't wait to see what Erebus watches brings next!
NOTE - I haven't been incentivised in any way to give a positive review...I genuinely think the watch is a smash hit! Especially that Aventurine dial!

Thanks Al! The Aventurine has been the #1 seller from day one. A bit of a surprise to be honest, but delighted that people seem to like it. Including you mate! Cheers, Jody
Looking forward to a meteorite dial
Pleasure sir! Congratulations again on a great release!
Hey Jody is this actually the blue or the purple Helix?
@@godGottgod it's the blue... It came in a box titled blue helix
I wanted to check out the actual Malachite dial I would receive - I don't want a curved version of pattern but your team could not guarantee that. I get that - there is only so much individualization one can provide. Also: if you produce quartz versions I will buy a minimum of two.
Best closeup videography of the aventurine dial I have seen, great job, subscribed 👍
Wow, thanks!
Agreed, the macro videography as a whole here is superb. New subscriber! 👌🏻
@@breesey73 thanks mate
it is so hard to choose which one I buy!
which one have you ordered?
Thanks for the great review Al! Appreciated very much! ❤
Pleasure mate! Its an awesome watch... I wish you both every success!
I had already ordered the Aventurine on a jubilee, but now I've also gone and ordered the enamel white on an oyster as well so I've got a genuine GADA as well as dressy option combo. I think I might need to seek professional help
I just ordered the purple fumé dial on the jubilee bracelet because the purple helix dial was sold out. The white enamel was tempting. Also just ordered the purple Origin 38 because the pink and light blue ones were sold out. These will be nice additions to my collection. Thanks for the thorough review especially the close-up shots.
Thats a pleasure mate, glad you enjoyed it and hope you like your new watches! Have a nice weekend
Good on you for being one of the reviewers for the watch. I also agree that it is on the dressier side, but that’s what I was looking for. Going with the white enamel with the J Style and will be used as my “dress” watch. I have to wear a suit for my work on many occasions, but I never had a dedicated dress watch, but this will definitely fit that bill. Thanks for the great review!
White enamel with a Jubilee sounds like a great combo for this dressy sports watch.
Nice review, nice watches! l ordered the blue helix with o and j style bracelet and the blue strap pack... Can't wait😊
already ordered an ASCENT Aventurine. I have an Origins in orange and love it!! Great job for a reasonable price.
Hope you enjoy it!
With the orange theme (and orange lighting), I was hoping to see you model the ranga dial!
Very thorough review , Thumbs up given! At first thought Jody was spreading himself too thin with all the dial and bracelet options he might be over saturating the market. But when I went to order, I found that I couldn't decide on just one so I had to buy two. I see what you did there Jody, by offering so many distinct and different configurations and low early bird prices many buyers will purchase multiples. You clever bastard.
Ordered the orange fume on day one. Come on September!
Suggestion - put a pirece of tape over the recording red light on your camera. It's a bit distracting (must be the cat in me)
Love nkuwan the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the watch. I don't think any other UA-camr can show off watches in as much detail as you.
Thanks for those kind words... that's really nice of you. Thank you 🙏
I ordered the Purple helix dial with a Jubilee, can't wait for it to arrive!
These look terrific, but IMHO, they should have done 38mm max with about 36.5mm or so optimal.
How small are your wrist? The actual measurements of the case is 38.6 so it should fit.
Headline. You tuber likes you tubers watch.
I dig that green dial one
It is a special watch this one. I wish i had room in my watch box for it, but I can't bear to part with the dozen I have in there now (one in, one out rule). I think this is a better release than the Origin. Hopefully they do an Origin v2 fixing a few minor things, but for this one - I can't think of anything they can do to improve it, other than a display caseback. I'd like to also see a black+gilt dial, and a limited edition meteorite dial. One question though - does the oyster bracelet have a half-link option? Oyster bracelets without half links can be a lottery getting a good fit. Jubilee bracelets are a guaranteed good fit though as every link is like an oyster half link.
I hear ya. I’m in almost the same spot. I have room for this one and one more in my collection and then one has to leave before another can come in.
Black gilt on a spiral dial or a golden flecked mineral dial with a Jubilee or President bracelet would look phenomenal
There's a slide adjust on the clasp that should help with this.
Dozen is my limit also. Hahah.
I think using “enamel” when it’s more likely lacquer is kind of misleading. Ain’t no way you’re getting a grand feu enamel dial for $400 😂
EDIT: it’s a very cool watch and I’m going to preorder the adventurine
I was thinking the same thing. Enamel paint.
they are ok there are much better ones under 500 in my opinion great review but I'll stick to my San Martins at this price point
What other models in this sports/GADA watch category do you prefer, recommend?
lol
which ones? I am genuinely interested.
The Aventurine dial is beautiful but I think I would get over it. The black is a timeless classic and cheaper.
true, but then again, be ready to get asked: is this a gs? i rather have unique af purple helix. YEP, it's an EREBUS!
@@Jolax85I wanted the jubilee and thought he helix was a bit to busy to add to that so I got a fume. What bracelet did you get?
@@Pounderino I opted for the J bracelet because I wanted a more dressy look. The O bracelet is more suitable for more sporty looks (i think).
In the video, the O-style end link looks too long, don't you feel that way?
That "blue" helix sure look purple to me 😁
Why does the Blue Helix appear magenta-ish on videos, but it is azure blue on product photos ? What's the true color ?
Well when the reviewers have different lights which throw out different spectrums of light they will look a little different. And then they have different cameras which might throw it off some more. And while writing this I saw the lume section and the black light really shifted the color of the dial due to the uv light to activate the lume- just ignore that section for color. Really, just trust the pictures on the Erebus site since the professional photographer used should know what he is doing.
Do you know what Magenta is? 😂
@@jaredstephenson6468he probably meant cyan 😂
i wish the bookshelf were real
Great review bro
LUDICROUS
As in the rapper?
Of course it's the best. Because all of Jody's friends say it is.........
To be clear Tony, that couldn't be further from the truth. What you may not see is the months of prototyping, refining and thought that has gone into both the Ascent and Origin models. Speaking personally, I don't tend to have too many negative reviews on my channel decause if I don't like something, I simply don't buy it to review. Hope that helps mate 😀
Nice review, easy to watch
Thanks Tim
That blue looks like purple in this video 😮
Did the shirt come with a non-paid watch?
Anyone know the import fees to the US?
It is the best watch under $500. No watch can match it with specs. The closest ones would be San Martin and Orient.
Great video! Is they blue or purple helix ?
It's blue..my colour on the camera might be a bit off
Is the adventure purple with sparkles?
The aventurine looks black in person. The macro footage with lights on it shows a deep purple though
Just needs to be 42mm to be perfect.
Some of us don't want to wear a dinner plate on our wrists...
@@wirdy1 Some of us don't want tiny watches either.
The prices are plus shipping, ............plus, taxes, plus DHL charge for collecting the taxes.
You sound like you are in the UK, so can you be the first to give a 'through the door/on your wrist' price for us fellow Brits ; )
Hi there, unfortunately, I departed our fair shores in 99 for down under. I am based in Sydney Australia. Sorry mate
@@TheWatchChannelAU There is a lot of it about!
Thinking of doing the same to reduce my Erebus costs 🙃
nkuwan is best watch factory!!!
The 12 o clock hour markers are crooked
It probably the angle...but also remember these are prototypes not production or retail level pieces
1:10 no not a shill…but Schwartzkopf and T, fan boy for sure … don’t worry so am I 😂
you can get a cadisen which is just as well built and looks mint
The ORIENT is cheaper
Thank you for this paid advertisment!
Personaly I would prefer a review.
Oh dear, you simply can't please some people eh? Did you actually listen to what I said .. I was not paid .. the watches were sent on loan ... But they are great ...simple..end of story my friend
Looks like a watch created by AI (Create me a cheap GS/Omega watch), no soul sorry...Not for me. Better to create your own mod with good AliX parts, or Namoki parts.
There aren't any parts available on aliexpress that high quality, you'd have to buy a San Martin and dial/movement swap. Which would be more costly than just buying this watch.
the best watch under $500, is it fuck but then youtubers do shill for each other
Thanks for your insightful comment Glasgow John. Have a lovely weekend mate.
@@TheWatchChannelAU there are far better watches out there for less than $500 for you to say otherwise shows you're nothing but a shill hoping not to say something that might get you kicked out of the circle, be honest and be man enough to say the truth
@@TheWatchChannelAU the very fact you deleted my reply to you shows im correct but then you will just delete this one too, that ok because deep down in your conscience you know im right
@@glasgowjohn7831 I haven't deleted them my angry little friend...your foul language meant that UA-cam automatically hold them for my review. Tell you what wee man, I'll go and approve them for you as you are so keen to be noticed. Again...have a great weekend pal. X
Sorry.. just saw your reply...god...if you are in Glasgow, it must be late...anyway, yeah mate, I'll do some soul searching over the weekend. To be honest though, I didn't realise there was a circle .... Who's in it just out of interest because I am unsure... seriously.... I am sort of flattered but also bemused at the same time.
I only go to nkuwan to buy a mirror copy watch！
