- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Here I review and explain what I believe the Parnis Watch brand is along with a full review of the Parnis Rolex homage. (Audio Fixed. In this example we have a Rolex GMT homage. I ask you do your own research and come to your own conclusions as to what a Parnis is and does. . Special shout out to Dan C, from Michigan who was kind enough to send a stranger his watches for review.

I'd say for around $125-$150 you get a heck of a deal.
The Deep Blue box is for a different watch all together.
Figured that out later on. Thanks.
I have just received a PARNIS sub,it says on the Ad it has a Miyota movement but I have not opened it yet.
It has a great build quality for the price £65.00 yes i'm in England :) it is keeping good time and basically I love it.
I also own 2 Rolex a Yachtmaster mk1 and a Datejust and not going to compare them as I love my Rolexes too.
Hey the 1st person to see my new PARNIS asked if it was a R sub,it is a watch you can wear Daily and not worry about it getting scratched or dented or whatever,I might even buy another in blue !
Great review WT LA.
I agree with you. Thanks for the kind words.
tom liddle
Same here Tom it's a great watch for the price !
Had my Parnis 200m Diver (the one with ploprof handset!) 4 weeks now and it's sat consistently at +4/5 seconds a day straight out of the box. Can't fault it. Sapphire crystal and ceramic bezel at this price is great. Took scotchbrite to polished centre links of bracelet and it looks spot on now. A good daily beater so far.
It is a great value.
You're reviewing a GMT watch and have no idea there is time zones that have half an hour offset? Really? You only need to look to India. Duh.
exactly. and these half-hour time zones drive rolex owners nuts. kujos for parnis getting this right
Regarding the GMT moving independently: there are half hour timezones. So you need that option.
Thank you sir!
Legally speaking, none of these watches designs are patented. Only the movements are and some movements patents have expired. Rolex only has trademark. As long as they don’t market them as Rolex or using proprietary movements that are under many patents than they are in the legal.
Just got a Pepsi GMT. Really liking it!!!
Enjoy!
I have been looking at them too. Checking videos and saw your handle.
I own a Rolex and a couple of parnis GMT's. They are fabulous, accurate and great value for money
@moneycheetah on instagram Bonne qualité
Common movements right now are : the Seagull (25xx series) automatic, the Miyota Automatic (Japanese movement, owned by Citizen). There is a quartz movement, but I'm not 100% sure who makes that.
I've got Seagull and Miyota movements in Parnis watches. The rotors are a little loud and clunky. They keep time pretty well. The case / weight / straps are all decent material. If you buy from Parnis direct you'll get 316L stainless cases and bracelets (where not Leather).
I was pretty sceptical about these watches, but as a watch to wear either doing things you wouldn't want to wear an Omega / Rolex / Panerai to do or go places where you wouldn't want to have that much money on your wrist for the world to see - well, you're getting a pretty good deal.
I've heard lots of complaints about build quality / performance. That is why a) I buy from the official parnis website and b) I go for movements that are named, because at least if it is Dead On Arrival and/or the vendors stops existing or honours warranty - then I can always go to eBay / Amazon and get a movement replacement for a reasonable sum of money.
I have replaced the spring bars with better grade 1.5mm and 80% or more of that movement went away. ( I'm talking about the slop in the end links) I own this same one, ($85 usd on eBay) Ceramic and sapphire. The face is SHARP black, nothing like the faded black face on the Alpha GMT. I like this watch a lot. I don't surf or swim like I do with Invictas but shower and washing hands is no problem so far.
I think this Parnis GMT is a very good deal for the money.
They even try to make the movement look a bit Rolex like with the rotor and one red reverse wheel
Please forgive me I show the measurements for the wrong watch. After uploading twice for other errors I decided to let it be. True measurements can be found on the Parnis web site.
Very detailed review on a cheap watch 👍👍👍 I own couple of Parnis watch’s and so far are very happy for the purchase ! My Parnis Pepsi GMT are my favorite ! Keep up the good work 👍
My advice is buy buy buy,if you can't afford $17,000 for the real deal this is pretty darn close sapphire crystal,ceramic bezel insert,good quality and gmt works good.
Beautiful watches. Just bought 2 pcs. from their web site above. Can't wait i am extremely excited.
Enjoy them!
Sea-Gull is the highest volume manufacturer of watch movements in the world and has been making watch movements since 1955. They make excellent movements, including tourbillons in addition to many gorgeous watches that aren't "low end". You WANT a Parnis with a Sea-Gull movement. Invicta uses Sea-Gull movements in some watches and it's a selling point. I own a Parnis with a Sea-Gull movement, and it's more accurate than the Orient and Seikos I own. It also hacks and has a power reserve indicator -- in a $100 watch. When I heard you say they are low quality movements -- sorry. I bailed on your video.
NickTrop - I was just going by the research I did. I understand and respect your opinion. I am currently wearing a watch I paid .50 cents for. I restored it and could not be happier. Enjoy your watch, whatever it may be.
@@abacrombe21 appreciate your feedback. Don't know where you did your research but it's simply not the case. If you're going to go Chinese, you actually WANT a Sea-Gull movement. That's the only point I'm trying to make. They're being compared to Swiss movements at a fraction of the price. I appreciate your reply.
I like mine a lot also. Great power reserve...nicely done for what it is...and really where are you going to fine a automatic, handwinding, sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel watch with a solid bracelet for $150.00 brand new.
Fred G I would love for someone to answer your question.
Nobody will. Cause you can't. These Luxury-Chinese do things for $50-$100 which other companies would Charge you $500-$1000 for.Look at the Didun Design Royal Oak Hommage. Automatic, decorated rotor, sapphire Crystal, solid end links, machined folding clasp, Hand winding and hacking, screw down crown. Costs $58.
For Christ's sake, Seiko's $300 models come with Mineral Crystal, and an inaccurate 7S26 movement without hacking or Hand winding with a water resistance of 100m.
Your friend sent it in that box!!! Not Parnis
That GMT function is very useful, in the DPRK the time is shifted 30min from the typical timezones. I will definitely get a this Parnis next time I go to the DPRK.
Enjoy! DPRK? You have internet in NK? I thought it was all locked down.
I am not korean, I just went to visit as a tourist, you can see in a video of my channel. They do have some kind of internet, but sure no access to UA-cam.
I believe that is a DG3804 movement.
Yes, it seems. I saw this on fake Rolex. You seem to have a good understanding of the issue. I wonder how well this movement is in use. And how stable are its characteristics.
Maybe the bracelet would fit if you dumped the crappy spring bars
I love parnis! Good quality, great price! I saved a lot of 💰👍
Better quality than I expected. Enjoy!
Apparently, if you buy direct, you getthe better watch, as sellers on ebay, etc... etc... are supplied, a wholesale watch! Look into it 👍😎
Sea Gull is one of the biggest producers of movements in the world and they are very good. Some of them are superb and easily a match and even better than ETA. Parnis is a homage watch producer. We all know this. No issues with this. Customer service is excellent and they are a very open company.
Thank you for your input, Much appreciated.
I have the Parnis GMT, and it's been. . . interesting. It worked very well for a while and was only off a few seconds per day. At some point, it quit holding a charge, and would die even while wearing. No amount of hand winding seemed to help, so I put it away for months. Recently, I decided to go give it a try again. For some reason, it's been running great for about 5 days now. Doesn't die overnight, doesn't die while wearing, and is quite accurate. I have no idea what the hell is going on with this damn watch. If it were consistent in operation, I'd say it's a great watch for the priced, but not knowing why it just quit winding and then magically started winding again, I can't recommend it. I've even let it sit for more than 24 hours without wearing it and it was still ticking.
Guarantee that'll be some detritus in the workings which a clean will sort. Downside being a service if you can't do it yourself isn't cost effective.
Seems like a real pain in the a$$ to open that caseback... Movement looks good at least. Thanks for showing it, was really interesting to see what's inside, as nobody shows.
Parnis have two production lines. One branded, one not
The unbranded ones go to other companies to have their own name put on the dial.
But here's the rub, the Parnis branded watches are of better quality.
So if you're looking on eBay, get one that says Parnis on the dial even tho it'll be a bit more expensive.
Thank you for the valuable info!
If you look around, you can find deals on eBay...I found the 47mm Big Pilot homage marked Parnis, for $85.90...Great watch...It has the Seagull st 2551 movement.
1701spacecadet This is not true, they sell premium unbranded versions from their website. Branded or unbranded versions bought from online sellers are likely to be the lesser versions.
1701spacecadet Do you mean "Marina Militare" is another brand name? helluxwatch.com has some nice choices.
I don't know if this is a Seagull movement or just an iteration of the Tongji Standard Chinese Movement. I'm inclined to say the latter. If they come out of a factory with good quality control they are pretty robust and will last a long time. Perhaps not as accurate as an ETA or Ronda movement but you get what you pay for. If you buy any of the cheap Chinese automatics they all use a variation of the SCM and with the less expensive brands the build quality is hit and miss. You can get a good one and then you can get a crappy one with loose hands on the adjustment phase and crappy time keeping. Great unbiased review here...keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for your kind words!
The movement Parnis use is usually the Japanese made Miyota 21 Jewel
I found out this was neither a seagull or Miota, it was some other off brand Chinese movement.
Interesting I have a Parnis Black Bay Homage with date. It has a Miyota 24 jewel movement . That said It was a 200 dollar watch..
Owning a Luxury watch ,does not prevent anyone from owning a budget watch.. Moronic watch snobs, will be moronic watch snobs....Lol
Omega also do a replica of a Rolex Oyster perpetual date... Its called a Constellation Globe master.. You should look into that Hot shot !!! BTW are you a stalker ???Lol..
The Parnis GMT's bough off of Ebay most likely use the MingZhu DG2813 movement rather than the advertised Miyota on the official store.
Ebay quality vs Official store quality both differ, as they also explain it on their site, which also explains the gap between online prices and the higher listed web page prices.
Thank you for the comments. I appreciate the education.
Lol. The consensus on WUS is that the "online" store is nothing more than a front - there is no single "Parnis". The guy who runs the store is simply reseller himself who made a website to look legit and thus increase his profits.
Excellent review. Very detailed. Picked up the Pepsi bezel for 72$ usd on an AliExpress sale. Superior value for what you get if you don’t mind missing out on brand affinity
Did it have all the gaskets including crown ??
It did have a small gasket on the crown. Most watches do.
I'm quite sure your friend just used a pelican case to ship it to you.
Yep, Thats what happened. lol
Curious if you think that the Seiko sea urchin SNZF17K1 is a better watch than the Orient Ray 2 ?
I like the Ray because you can wind it and at hacks. But I would own both and be equally happy.
You reviewed a box of a different watch... he sent it in what he had available
Yes, he told me that after he review the video. I had no idea.
You right,that box was for my deep blue dive watch. You should check out deep blue watches, great quality & @ reasonable prices & great looking !
he never heard of deep blue watches? They pretty big
Nope, never heard of them. I did some research after this comment and looks like they are a Chinese brand, but fairly good quality.
Chinese doesn't mean garbage necessarily, anymore.
It says, on their website, what movement, it's supposed to have.. Miyota etc.... etc... 👍😜😎
the specs you throw up around 27 minutes is for some other watch with a quartz movement and small seconds.
Thanks for the heads up That was an error.
Got the 2 pcs GMT(OR) and Diver (RD) today it is indeed a beautifully made and looks solid watches. Worth the money i spent for these pcs. for a total of US$ 303. 5 Days FREE delivery (tax free) from Hongkong through Parnis.org to Australia. However, take note your bank will charge extra amount if your currency is not US Dollar. Mine my bank charge additional A$12.50 for the total amount. My GMT is exactly what it looks in your video. I am a happy camper.
Excellent and detailed as always.
Cheers.
Thank you for the kind words!
Can you please tell the water resistance? Can be used in shower/ home pool? Don't want to dive with it, but not also break in for everyday use. ?
The problem with these is its hard to tell the real water resistance, I would guess 100 feet, but that is a guess.
I think the bracelet is worth the price of purchase, there is a glide lock on the clasp that I really wanted to see ! Try to get ahold of one of the deep blue watches that come in that black box I love mine!
I have ;earned about Deep Blue since this video. I should have done more research. I am intrigued by them and I am tempted to try one.
Hi. I really like your very thorough reviews. If possible would you please review the Orient RA-EL0002L. Thanks.
Thank you for your kind words. RA-EL0002L is a great watch. However I don't happen to have one and it's not on my list at the moment. If you have one and would like to send it in for a review, I would be happy to do it and I would pay postage back to you.
I love Parnis watches
Rolex is a GMT master and the Parnis is a homage to the GMT Master 2 that’s why the bezels have different fonts
purchased a GMT watch the watch is perfect however i am still having a discussion about the bracelet which the seller maintains is adjustabill but i and my watchmaker says is not.
Use bigger spring bars and it should solve the endlink looseness
DG3804 inside ($40). The GMT version of the DG2813 ($10). They sound like sand when you wind them and don't last very long. About 4 beats per sec. Error can be between -+10 sec to -+30 sec per day. This is the typical movement found in replica Rolex watches in the $80 - $140 range. Higher end replicas ($160-$500) use cloned ETA 2824 & 2836 movements. About 6 beats per sec. Far superior to the DG line.
My guy. The 3804 and 2813 are 6 beats a second. The ETA clones are 8 beats a second.
That is the wrong box I bought one from Amazon and the box is beige in color and has Parnis print on front.
I have heard that Parnis does not lubricate their movements in an effort to keep the price low. Which might explain the 'gummy' movement of the GMT hand and date wheel. If I were to buy one, I'd strip it down immediately and clean and lubricate it properly. Then it would last for years versus weeks or months.
Great tip, thank you!
At least on their website they claim that watches sold there are all lubricated. But to other re-salers they send them without lubrication. Parnis on eBay is always about 20 GBP (30 USD) cheaper than on their website.
iv taken the back of several parnis watches to regulate and can see under the scope they are lubricated. they wouldnt run well if at all with no lubrication!
@@AndrisJankevics the website is just a front to trick you into thinking that it is the "legitimate" retailer
The watch has spent alot of time in a dark case before you received it.
If you didn't give it time to absorb light before the luminess test, it would not do well.
16:26 wtf is the second's Hand doing there? It leaps like 5 seconds twice
What you see happening there is simple. If I clear my through or say "ummmm" during the video, I cut it out. Hence, you see the time skip. lol.
😂
A GMT, should have a bezel, that moves both ways!
Not, a divers style bezel!
Hmmm....
I have a batman version. Negatives, lume is poor, bezel isn't as tight as I would like, and the WR rating is poor, even though I know they are good for swimming. Positives, keeps good time, sapphire crystal, looks fantastic, excellent jubilee bracelet. This is a brilliant watch for the money. Take no notice of Parnis.com claiming their watches are better, it's rubbish.
Are you a watchmaker??Its not called a drum that holds the mainspring it’s called the barrel..🧐
IST among other time zones are offset by 1/2 hour.
Dan Scratched the shit out of that watch. 😂
Yes
Hey there, is there any way you could disassemble the bezel to show what the mechanism is like. I'm trying to replace my click spring but I lost it and am in dire need of measurements. Please help!!!
I don't have this watch any longer. It was sent in by a viewer. But they are all pretty much the same. Just check on UA-cam for removing watch bezel.
Just received my Parnis GMT a couple of days ago, but it seems to be having an issue internally. The watch is running 5-7 seconds too fast PER MINUTE! It's also dying overnight (about 9 hours unworn) This definitely isn't normal. Does anyone who has this watch have the same issue? Or is it just an issue with mine? Already contacted them directly about it, but would like to hear any other examples.
It sounds like you have a defective unit. There is a fine adjustment inside most of these watches that you could try yourself, but its a bit tricky. If you have the option, I would ask for an exchange for another.
I'd try running it through a demagnetizer, sounds like your balance spring could be magnetized, your local watch maker should have one and it's a very quick process, if not you can get one on ebay or amazon for around $50. . Good luck with it.
I have the Parnis GMT, and it's been. . . interesting. It worked very well for a while and was only off a few seconds per day.

Too 'picky' and it is obviously a nice time - piece. Buyer is happy and I, as a Parnis owner, am happy with my "Explorer' homage. NO time rating , it was On your timepgrapher, eh?
Great review expert issues with this watch the Movement is a chinese MingZhu DG3804 GMT the quality of Parnis and other Chinese made watches is very inconsistent with very poor quality control
Thank you
Mingzhu DG3804 GMT
Mingzhu movement. Low beat. Not the greatest, not the worst. After a little regulating, it keeps reasonable time.
I'd rather have this parnis than the Ray 2 on which the bezel is almost impossible to rotate unless you have patience, energy and time to dedicate to just that. Not to mention the crown which is minuscule and hard to pull out to manoeuvre. To me the Parnis with the advantage of a sapphire crystal and a ceramic bezel looks definitely the better deal.
Its definitely a good value is you can get past the imperfections.
@@BurntPlaydoh..No diving here and if I swim I take my watch off regardless.
Watch is auto & box lable say 'quartz' i don't think the watch came in that box.
Yes I found that out the hard way. Thank you for your input and welcome to the channel.
They box lable says 'quartz'
Vince White - Deep blue is even a different brand.
So the box was just used as a shipping case.
A. Where did he buy it? If purchased on eBay you can understand the movement being a knockoff to Parnis! According to Parnis website this would be a low cost vs a premium that the website describes. B. Parnis is using a Miyota 8215 movement and the quality should be better. I just ordered a Gauss 03 and will let you know what I come up with. Their website has a lot of good information that breaks down these things you reviewed. My only thing about the website is the lack of pictures you can view. Otherwise, one of the best websites I have seen for their products. And their response time to an email is by far the best I’ve dealt with.
Great tips. Thanks!
The GMT hand moves independently so you can set it to keep track of a second time zone.
Dustin DiBenedetto I think that it’s a good feature. Although I have to say that it would be annoying to deal with a unidirectional bezel. I’ll see if I can modify it so that it can’t move at all.
@@wc7484 you can use the bezel to read a3rd time zone
FYI, the watches sold on parnis site are better quality premium wstches, the ones sold on ebay, Amozon and distribution are cheep er eith lesser movement
He just sent you the box of a deep blue watch he owns, nothing to do with a parnis ffs
Thank you, I realized that a bit too late, lol
I'm on the fence. makes me feel good about my invicta etas
Sterile means they don't put any name on it.
Thank you! I appreciate the information. Always leaning.
what brand blue strap is on the skx009? please let me know so i can buy one thanks.
amzn.to/2MFwH7q Here you go.
That fact that it's just 3bar makes it a deal breaker smh
It is probably a bi better than that in real life, but not much.
I'm sure you realized that is not the original box, right?
Yes, I do now. LOL
did you Pay customs duties? how much time to delivery and which Courier do they use? I am considering buying this
@t
what do you Think?
Thanks for the indepth review. I really like the watch but the notorious image stop me he he. This video making me wanted give them another chance he he
I will probably own one at some point myself. The material alone justifies the price tag.
The red GMT hand moves so you can set the hand to the second time zone; this is instead of rotating the bezel. Very interesting feature. The Swiss are missing creativity as they age, I think.
For this price , it’s not a Rolex, for the fact of sapphire, ceramic bezel , solid end links etc for the price it’s hard to moan , seiko skx has a movement from the dark ages and is 2 and a half times the price, hardlex crystal mostly un aligned bezel chapter ring , my seiko 5 cost more and has a crappy thin rattle of a bracelet,, so in my books if the Parnis keeps good time that’s good enough for me ,,,cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧
Isn't the sub a homage of the 55 fathoms?
Right you are! It seem obvious there is no copyright issues on watch designs.
I am sure it is just he sent his watches in a deep blue box. Parnis ships in a foam box with bubble wrap
Can You get Water Slide Rolex Decals?
Superlative Take WT.
Jono Edwards lol
Probably . A watch repair guy on UA-cam demonstrated how to make water slide decals with a regular printer. All you need is a specific type of paper and a regular printer. Google it and you’ll find it l.
Deep blue, is a different watch, it even tells you so, on the bottom of the box!
Lol.. Watch guy hmmm..🤔🤔
Watch guy , not box guy. Sometimes I have a hard time remembering my name. :)
@@WatchTimePlus Haha...
19:27 Butcher
"When you open a Rolex...." lol I would watch that.
I read on a forum that Parnis watches ship without Seagull movements being lubricated and that they last for only two years.Is this true?Just to let you know,Deep Blues are great watches.
I honestly don't know. I have only ever inspected one. The one I showed did not have a seagul movement.
Most watch brands even Mont blanc suggest servicing after 2 years.
Looks to be around a100 dollar mark for it. The dial, the bezel, and Safire crystal are nice but the movement looks like some Asian generic. I have no idea what it is. Kind of scares me to buy in case it breaks down.
The box went to a different watch...Deep blue is a company name
Yes, I found that out after the video. Thanks for the comment.
Watch Time LA yeah... I read that after I posted... Thanks for the like on my other post
Watch Time LA I have since bought a Parnis Big Pilot 47mm with date window from ebay for $85.90.. Waiting for it to arrive by snail mail from China
Know your watches. Deep Blue is a brand .... and is not a Parnis. Sand? Give me a break.
i reed that there are bootleg rolex nodels from china they are so good thst thee real roxex watch co are spending big money to stay one step ahead.
Agreed!
LOL, very funny this video review! Deep Blue is another watch brand!! A fast research on google, would have revealed the true before spending 5min talking about this stupid watch box, not even reading "Parnis" on! Now you have to buy a Deep Blue Watch an redo the all video by putting the Deep Blue watch inside a Parnis Box! ;-) And also very funny, the Brooklyn Lafayette, totally out of theme card, at the end of the video!
Also highly recommend going direct to the manufacturer at parnis.org ! Just received my 3rd watch, and the quality is absolutely superb!
Thanks for the tip. I am still pondering m first Parnis. I will do a review as soon as I get one.
I’ll tell you what I think. I think that was one of the most tedious videos I’ve seen for some time.
Darn, another thing to discuss with my therapist.
buy an orient instead.
Agreed!
Not for me. I'm deeply disappointed with my Ray 2. A ridiculously hard to rotate bezel and an irritatingly smallish crown, no sapphire crystal, no ceramic on the bezel. I'm selling mine (one week old) to buy a Parnis instead.
