    Great homage piece comfortable on the wrist and for 100 buckaroos vs 120k you can’t go wrong. If you have that itch get it you won’t be disappointed.

    What is the size of the buckle connection to the bracelet? Ordered this watch but want to replace the buckle for one whitout the buttons

    Awesome piece, I've heard mixed things about it, was thinking about maybe getting one of these but they are kind of pricey.

      It sure is a looker! But comfort to me is my top priority and the Rocos unfortunately did not fit well on my wrist 😕 might be worth trying, but definitely utilize a business with a decent return policy. Thanks man! 👍

      I'd jump on one if you can find a good deal I just ordered one for under 100

    u need to add links ,the watch needs to move a little and not leave marks on hand !

    • @WeekontheWrist
      @WeekontheWrist  4 роки тому

      I did, but when I added a link, it’s really loose and stiff 😂 and with the links not articulating well, makes for an awkward experience. But if it does fit perfectly on your wrist, it’s a really nice watch!

      Sorry to hear that! The lack of microadjusts is horrible. Even half links would work also! Glad you checked the watch out!

    No offense. This is pretty overpriced. A DHgate Patek Phillipe Replica has the exact same specs for 80$. Also, that uses a Miyota 8215 clone from the looks. For nearly double the cost, this offers nothing more. What a shame for a homage microbrand

      No offense taken! I’ve bought it during a sale on impulse, wasn’t really looking into Nautilus homages then 😅 thanks for the input!

      @@WeekontheWrist Yeah. I'll give you some insights so you know a little more. That bracelet can be improved by soaking it in baby oil. Helps lubricates and improves flexibility.
      This is pretty sad since they could have added some sapphire at this price point. The display case back is also shit. Why did they put it if they didn't decorate the movement. I know not everyone supports replicas but this is pretty disappointing. I suggest you look at the Jason007 U1 Factory Patek Phillipe 5711. It's a replica but it's practically the same watch you got for 80$.
      Thanks for being humble in your reply. Hope you appreciate it brotha!

    • @WeekontheWrist

      Thank you for the info! I haven’t had any problems with bracelets being stiff before, so never thought of putting oil 😅
      Some people appreciate an open caseback however horrible they look, it’s a nice touch as long as it doesn’t mess with the water resistance for me. I agree that they should have a better quality crystal for the price, especially with newer homages from China showing up with sapphire for a waaaay lower price point. Not a fan of replicas, but I do like homages. Kinda two-faced, I know 😅 most homages are replicas without the legit name. Thanks for the info, have a great day!

      @@WeekontheWrist Open case backs are often good for me. But this looks lazy. This still has the stock rotor. No engravings or at least finishing applied. If a Pagani Design can do it for 70$, I think this 150$ Homage can do better.
      A closed case back would have been a better choice for me to slim down the watch. Homages are often great values but this one seems sloppy.
      Actually, most homages and DHgate replicas are produced by the same factory with some exception like (Pagani Design, San Martin, etc).
      I suggest reviewing some more Pagani designs in the future. They are just a steal with their value. Not all Chinese Homages offer great value. Some are just expensive replicas with some shitty name on it. Try checking out a Phylida speedmaster homage with the ST19. It's a beautiful caseback!

    • @WeekontheWrist
      @WeekontheWrist  4 роки тому

      I agree with the case back not being decorated is kinda lazy. It’s still kind of a nice ‘conversation piece’ for people not into automatics. I have to admit I didn’t do much due diligence when it comes to purchasing a Nautilus type of watch, didn’t know there were a lot others in a cheaper price range.
      Pagani Designs have been awesome to me so far! They do offer the best bang for your buck when it comes to specs and quality. Even their bracelets are phenomenal compared to the other brands in the same price bracket. I have a Bond Seamaster otw from Ali and I can’t wait to check it out! Thanks for the input again 😁

    Good review thanks. Another poor 'homage'. What's interesting is it wouldn't take much to make this a winner would it? So why do they bother with such low specs for a nice looking piece? Nuts... !

      LoL you Sir have a lot to learn. Stop trolling, and go educate yourself. Wristwatches are nothing more than man jewelry. Nowadays, no one asks for the time anymore. Everyone has it right on their phone. Why spend thousands on a wrist bauble? And the debate continues.....
