  • Thank you very much to the Merkur Watch Group for giving me this watch to enjoy, have in my collection and share with you.
    If you are interested in this watch or others from their range then Ill leave a link to their website and an affiliate link from the Aliexpress store:
    www.merkurwatch.com/
    s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dds...
    Thank you so much for WATCHing my video and I hope that you check out all my other content.
    I release 3 videos per week, all watch related, including reviews, first impressions and general watch related topics.
    I try very hard to diversify my content. Featuring known watch brands, microbrands, Aliexpress. Some I have purchased new, others second hand.
    The majority of the watches that I feature I have purchased. I buy them to enjoy, wear, have in my collection. I then also feature them on this channel.
    Being a smaller channel it is challenging to cover the cost of all the watches that I buy and partly because of this I have become an affiliate member with a number of companies including Aliexpress and Ashford.com.
    If you are looking for watches from well known brands then it is worth checking out:
    www.ashford.com
    If you are looking for great strap options then definitely check out:
    vario.sg/
    and
    artemstraps.com/collections/s...
    As an affiliate member I may leave affiliate links in the descriptions of videos. These links will direct you to the watches that I’ve experienced, reviewed and would certainly recommend. If you choose to use those links I will earn a very small commission.
    Thank you very much if you choose to use those links.
    Below are affiliate links for my absolute favourite watches on Aliexpress. Each of them I have owned and had positive experiences with the stores that they are linked to.

    I think the Merkur Group puts out some of the best designed watches out there in the value range. I really wish they would use sapphire or a different movement. Thanks as always. You’re absolutely right about the minute hand.

    • @WATCHingJames
      @WATCHingJames  4 місяці тому +2

      I think so too. Some of the best at this price point and so many options as well.

    I really like the look of this and I've had it on my radar since I first saw it. However, I wish it had a sapphire crystal; I'd happily pay a bit more for it with sapphire.

    They def needed a circle to encompass the hour marker. Its the little attention to detail that would make it more attractive.

    • @WATCHingJames

    Thanks for the video. I really think the only miss by Merkur is the minute had circle not being at the spot where we can see the hours change....not bad. Cheers!!!

    I bought the exact same watch and it arrived with the hour disk misaligned and not showing centererd in the dial opening. They refunded me with 29,51€ and I risked to repair it and was able to put the hour disk with the back spring in the correct position and now the hour appears perfectly aligned in the dial.

      Great result in the end. But disappointed to hear it had to be done that way.

    Good review 👍 That is a good looking watch, you are right about the minute hand, they should have made it longer too. I know what you mean about the strap, I had a San Martin strap with that plastic finish and it was beige too, I sanded the finish off and found decent leather underneath, stained it re-stitched it and it now looks like a vintage brown strap.

    Very interesting watch that I attempted to purchase last year. I was informed the watch had been dispatched but I was then notified that there was an issue to do with exports and I was given a refund? I might consider it again in an AliExpress sale.
