I have had my sea ghost since December 25th. I set the time and I have not touched it since. It is running 5 seconds fast! That’s nearly one month and only 5seconds fast. The lume is not spectacular. It is ok. It’s not as good as the other Heimdallr offerings, but I can’t complain. The weight is crazy. It’s so light. I have the dark version. I’m a blacksmith. So, my watches get put through the paces. They are banged around, submerged in water, get near blistering heat, and come in contact with magnetic forces. It hasn’t changed a thing. This watch is blacksmith proof.
Hey there .. thanks for the comment . Like i said , one thing that Heimdallr have improved i their last 2 models is the quality all around . The monster homage feels super sturdy .. I'm glad you like it . Thanks again
White looks great!
To HEIMDALLR, in case they are doing a version 2:
-no AR coating on the black version. It's too blue and only works on the blue version.
-correct the hour hand to match the renders.(tapered)
-split the 12-o'clock index into two pieces, as this relates aesthetically to the split hands.
Bonus: Please make fully luminous insert and taper the other indexes at 3 & 9 to match the 12.
Can we add wave dial as well?
This does look good, especially on that mesh strap I think. I do love titanium watches. Great review mate.
Looks great! Heimdallr Sea Ghost - Best Titanium diver! Nice time piece, especially with the silver mesh strap!!! Excellent review!!!
Nice! Looks like I want another Heimdallr! Got my Heimhallr skx007 yesterday and it is a chunk, but perfect...no issues at all. Also, the shipping is very fast through DHL. Good review George!
Nice, simple review. I have the Sea Ghost in the exact same color (by choice) and I absolutely love it! I must say it is the second one I've received. The first had a bezel that required a gorilla grip to turn and would occasionally lock up completely. In typical Heimdallr care, they returned it and quickly got me a replacement that operates perfectly. The ivory/cream dial is gorgeous and appeals to me more than the all black version. Very classy. One of my favorite things on this remarkable watch is one only the wearer will appreciate and that is the remarkably engraved titanium case back. My other watches will feel neglected for sure now that the Sea Ghost has joined my collection. I highly recommend this amazing watch. My negatives...the printed logo and the lume. The lume is nice but not as bright or as long lasting as that on my bronze SKX SharkMaster, also from Heimdallr. It is still a joy to own and wear. So light you will forget it is on your wrist.
Hey , thanks for taking the time . No doubt they managed to deliver a hell of a watch . Thanks again
best seamaster homage ever!!!!! love how it comes with a spring bar tool and extra nato strap and buttery smooth winding
Nice looking Omega Seamaster homage. I just got my Borealis Cascais V2. Not sure of you checked it out, but it is a gorgeous watch and built like a tank. I have to say, of all my timepieces, it feels the most solid and tank-like.
Plus, FedEx lost my package, and Carlos, the owner, sent me a new one at no cost. They're awesome. I wanted a Portuguese watch (being a Portugueezer myself), and it's really done me proud.
Great review G, lovely looking watch
Cheers man , really appreciate it and thanks for your time!
Just ordered it. Can't wait
Haaaaa. Well done my man .. you won't be disappointed
Have the NTTD version. I will say that many of us (HD FB Group) have been having issues with the bezel. Mine came with a VERY stiff bezel action that requires a very forceful grip. I’ve probably turned my bezel 100+ times and it’s finally loosening up. There is a funny smell tho... not sure what that is. But thought I’d comment on someone whose had theirs for a few weeks now from the actual production run.
Do you intend to deep sea dive it?
Non-alloyed titanium develops a thin oxide layer for protection. If you see a scratch it is probably in that oxide layer. That is why buffing or brushing out a scratch will create a bright spot.
Didn't actually know that.. that's my first experience with a titanium watch.. in that case it develops it's own patina.. which is pretty awesome.. thanks again for the comment!
I've been waiting for someone to review this! Thinking of buying it v soon. It ticks a few boxes that I haven't already, being titanium and a white dial.
Hey man .. thanks for the comment . In all seriousness it's pretty damn good especially for the price . the finishing is on par with the likes of san martin at the price and the'll charge you an arm and a leg for a titanium watch . Use the link below if you want to buy it doesn't cost extra but it helps the channel ! thanks man
@@WatcheswithGeorge Will definitely do that, thanks
Looks pretty awesome...
Gorgeous!!!
I have a blue one enroute. There is a possibility that a curved end bracelet will not fit the lug holes, so it won't be mistaken for an Omega. Glad that they left the waves off of the dial, too.
It's an Homage to the NTTD Seamaster. That doesn't have the waves too
Nice review. Tell us, where did you get the strap it's on & how much was it?
I bought mine from level1000 ebay store and recived it in 6 days shipped from Canary Islands. Bracelet is Incredible
Hey .. thanks for the comment .. It's an amazing watch .. I have to say even if it's an homage .. I still think it has it's own identity ! Thanks again
6 Grams Lighter than my Bliger NTTD Homage and 10 Grams Lighter than the Pagani Version . I ended up with both watches of the same model by accident. And compared them. I am keeping the bliger version . But am interested in a different color. And Like the idea of the titanium .
Those hour induces are circular? They don't look it.
Thanks George for this SM homage review, any SS Oyster/Jubilee or Titanium bracelet options for this in the works?
Hey.. not too my knowledge, but like I said they do ship it with a stainless steel mesh now. Thanks again for watching.
How does this compare to the king of seamsater homages, the optopus kraken OCT05?
I love sliced shark 🙂
nice
great video sir, would it be too big for a 6.3 inch wrist ? 49mm lug to lug is worrying
Hey man .. Thanks for the comment . I would say it would be just about right, I have a 6.3 inch wrist for reference. Thanks again for watching
No lume test?
That nato looked ok, and it is a stretchy one 👍🏼
Hey
Thanks for the comment .. it's a decent nato .. I'm just not a huge fan of NATO s in general. Thanks again
Heimdallr gets next to no coverage. Very curious. This is bonkers value. I’m considering their titanium 6105 homage.
Ask Be3fore you order to confirm the color way you want is in stock. I am waiting for refund. I bought on the 25th and asked last night when will it be shipped. And they replied with they are out of Black dial and it would be end of month. I ended up finding one is stock on ebay out of spain. But Heimdallr need to get their inventory system in synch. As I went to their site as the Aliexpress store was out of black dials. This means one is correct and one wasn't. But I thought when I bought it. That well they want people buying them from their site No Fees. But turns out they were Out.
Can this be modded with standard Skx007 28.5mm dials? Thanks!
Hey man.. to be honest .. I'm not quite sure.. but you can go on the Heimdallr FB group and ask there. Thanks again for watching
Good reiw . Haimdllar also introduce with steel version with steel braclet with nh35and pt5000 movement option .and also introduce omega aqua terra new model with option nh35 and pt5000 movement .and signed crown . And use name logo instead of shark .
Hope the lume OK.. Thanks
The lume is absolutely amazing on it .. in true heimdallr style the did a very good job at it! Thanks again for watching!
They could have made the bezel in ceramic. I will wait till they make one.
Since it has a helium escape valve, is it ISO certified?
Hey there. Thanks for the comment and support. No, it just has it!
A great looking watch, but I am not convinced with this type of case material. Personally I would rather stick with Stainless, either brushed or polished. For me buffing out scratches or dings is no problem. I am not a fan of the slightly grew finish, but as we all know, to each their own.
I hear your words. I have an Oceanus that its titanium has been treated &/or coated. Possibly, this watch has been too. But for a casual summer watch probably a good value buy.
Your volume is way low
Wristshot?
Hey.. apologies..but I didn't do it on this!
i have seiko skx007 and heimdallr skx.
funny is Heimdallr is more accurate.
and quality really good.
only complain is.. it's not Seiko.
Ha.. thanks a million for the comment.. that's usually the case and also the fact that the Heimdallr wouldn't exist if it wasn't for Seiko. That's the way it goes .. but still! Thanks a million
Nice watch. Printed shark looks tacky, should be applied, I mean, after all, it's their logo...Should be proud of logo and display it. An applied HEIMDALLR would look way better.
Hey man.. thanks for the comment, I agree.. it gives the watch a bit more identity. Thanks again
Personally I don't mind the printed logo as it blends in well. I think if they were to use an applied logo it would need to be brushed finish to blend with the titanium. I'm not that keen on the polished shark.
@@sixtring73 Hey .. Thanks for the comment .. Like I said .. each witheir own . Thanks again for the comment
