I never really considered Cadisen and Pagani, but watches like this are helping to change my mind. Thanks for the great review as always. That dial is brilliant.
I’m glad I could help you to ‘potentially’ have a look at Cadisen in the future my friend and I also appreciate you watching 👍👍
The orange is the one. Another great review.
I’m glad you like it mate and I appreciate your kind words also - top man 👍👍
Nice review, Simon. This one got me excited when I saw it. Mine should be arriving soon. I"ve always like the SKX, but it's always felt a little too big for me...at the same time, the SKX013 always felt a little too small....so an SKX style watch that's right inbetween the 2 sounds like a dream. really happy the dimensions check out and gets me even more hyped for my green one to come in.
For sure mate, I know what you mean, this definitely works with the dimensions they’ve gone for and I look forward to seeing what you make of it too 👍👍
I had the Seiko SKX in orange and it’s one of those watches I’ve always regretted selling. I definitely ‘need’ to get one back on my wrist and this review has just scratched that itch again. Tempted by this watch at a third of the price but will hold out for the real McCoy. Thanks for another great review.
I have sellers regret on a few watches tbh Graham, so I know exactly where you’re coming from, I don’t know if/when Seiko will be releasing this but I hope it doesn’t take too long. Thanks for watching mate 👍👍
It looks similar to the Seiko but honestly the Seiko is fat superior. You never know if you're going to get a dud from these guys. I got one which tells the time but the rest of the chronograph is all over the place. I'll never again purchase one. Thanks for the review.
Good review, I like the colour, but I completely agree, I would have to remove the cyclops!
Thanks mate, I’m glad you like it and I’m pleased we’re aligned on the watch also. Have a great weekend 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime I hope you have a good weekend too 😁
If I get it cheaper at 11.11 I would mind the cyclops. I got the y@chtmaster homage from them and the orange dial is quite good, looks like they nailed the sunburst on this one. It's a solid watch and a solid review, right on time my man!
It’s a very cool watch and I did my best to get it out as soon as I could given it’s just been released. Thanks for watching man 👍👍
Good review but you missed the BIGGEST thing going for this homage, the fact that the dimensions are excellent. It´s smaller than the original watch that is "homaging", but it's bigger than the smaller new models or the old SKX013 that was too small for many Seiko enthusiasts. To me, it is a unique proposition that Seiko is not addressing with their 5KX line.
Take note, other YT reviewers, the dimensions are what make this watch stand out from other Skx homages, and even the OG ititself
Best regards
I take your point mate, it’s dimensions are definitely a HUGE plus for this watch and bridges the gap between the models you mentioned. I don’t mention watches but this is homaging the SRPD59.
Thanks for watching 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime right, that model has a 22 lug width and a 42.5 diameter. It is ok, but I prefer the 40 mm and 20 lug width. Mind you, I have a 5kx of 42.5 diameter and also the OG Skx013, but always prefer the 39 to 40.5 mm watches. Have a great weekend
@jorgeolguingarcia and you mate have a good one 👍👍
A mineral crystal cyclops on a sapphire crystal is a sneaky thing and a petty cost saving measure and kills that watch for me.
I get that mate and both my ‘pants’ things left me a little disappointed as otherwise, it’s a great offering tbh 👍👍
They've done a nice job on this one. I own a couple of Cadisens and they've held up quite well. Cyclops can be removed for those who can't get past it. I imagine a milled bracelet would have bumped up the price considerably. The orange was a nice choice Simon. 👍
I’m glad your ones are doing a good job for you mate and I take both your points. That aside, it’s a good offering from Cadisen IMO. I hope you’re well and have a great weekend 👍👍
Did Someone SEI-KOlour?? (i see what you did there...😏😂) But, did someone SEI-KOst? Parts for this come in... millions, i'd expect a bit lower price. But all prices are flying high lately, in AliLand a lot too. Anyways, nice try (...another😋).
Thanks for the review Simon, be well mate, cheers.
I’m glad you liked it mate, I thought it was a little bit clever 😊
I take your point on price but as you also say, price on everything seems to be going up and up and… you know what I mean. Thanks for watching man and have a great weekend 👍👍
Nice colour they need to offer a non cyclops version though
Most definitely mate - I completely agree 👍👍
Nice one Simon. Love how the dial really pops in the light....I opted for the Stealth and it will be interesting to see how it fares in the lume department. Still waiting on it.
Cheers John. I look forward to seeing what you make of it once it arrives 👍👍
Is it better than the Tandorio? That’s the next question.
A good question Darren and at this point I’m not sure but… I am pretty invested in finding out now, let’s see 👍👍
Good looking piece, the pressed clasp is a little bit of a let down though
It sure is mate and for me the clasp just isn’t very befitting of the watch as a whole. I hope you’re well 👍👍
Has anyone had success removing the cyclops from this watch? If so, how did you do it? I've had difficulties with some cyclops removal in the past. Aside from that, beautiful watch, fair price...I love the size. Thanks for the great review, Simon!
I can’t say I have tbh Evan but perhaps someone else would be good enough to comment and help?? Thanks for watching man 👍👍
this is a interesting homage, as the Seiko its based on is 42mm, and pretty much everyone has been crying for Seiko to make a 40mm diver. If they release a GMT version of this I'm sold.
Exactly that mate and in that respect, they’ve done very well with the dimensions 👍👍
I ordered my first Cadisen watch, the batman colour, thanks 😉
Nice one mate - enjoy 👍👍
Just ordered mine on their 11/11 sale get it in two weeks, mad about the color as I like colorful dials thanks for the review.
Nice one mate, I’m sure you’ll love it when it arrives 👍👍
If it was a homage of a watch I could never afford then yes.but I like seiko so would continue to support them
No problem mate, I completely understand and appreciate your honesty 👍👍
If they make a V2, they should opt for the NH36A, a daydate movement, and drop the cyclops. It would look more like a SKX. I put the 5KX sunburst gets into a SKX013 case, making it a true diver.
Good shout mate. I’m sure Cadisen will be monitoring all feedback on this 👍👍
I have to be real honest with you the watch is nice the price is not SO cheap but not SO expensive either but the problem is that i am very VERY tired about homage watches and SEIKO NH35A movements on every pilot chinese watches or chinese dive watches.
That is a fair comment mate and I can completely respect your opinion + I definitely appreciate your honesty - thank you 👍👍
Cadisen makes some of the best bang-for-the-buck watches but many of their watches have sharp edges on the bracelet or the clasp (ie their sub homage). I had to use an metal file on mine. Hope will will rectify this issue going forward.
I agree my friend - thanks for watching 👍👍
talk about a great morning chuckle...
I just stumbled across this new model from Cadisen while browsing AliExpress. I literally had it in my cart and clicked "buy", but cancelled it because...
....OF THAT DANG CYCLOPS! 🤣
I went back and messaged the company to see if I could get it without the atrocious "watch wart"...(waiting to hear back)
...then I found your spot on review. 👍
Cadisen seems to trust you, so I have a huge request:
PLEASE, I'm begging you, ask them to tone down their logos and branding!...not even Rolex uses a 6 pt font on their dials, and that's what people pay for...
they have multiple watches I would purchase, but they brand worse than Invicta 🙄 It really makes them look cheap, and it doesn't even remotely come across as "luxury".
I've messaged them, but I'm just a nobody without a UA-cam channel.
many thanks for your excellent reviews...no fuss, no muss, and honest...very much appreciated.
I’m glad you stumbled across my review mate, I did my best to get it out in good time as I knew it was going to be released. You make some good, valid points and I’ll do my best to hope they are heard but I can’t make any promises.
Many thanks for your time and for watching- have a great weekend 👍👍
😄Hello friend,we saw your request.
I love that vibrant orange dial. The clasp is disappointing, but that's replaceable at least.
I think vibrant is a good word mate and yes, the clasp is a pretty easy fix 👍👍
Another nice dial. I like it
It’s very good, not perfect but… good 👍👍
I hope cadisen will do homage on expensive watches like the tudor, not this mid range seiko
I get that tbh and Cadisen are putting out more and more different watches 👍👍
Looks like bezel alignment is pants too, unless Cadisen trying to imitate seiko to the max
Perhaps on camera the alignment is off, but in reality it’s pretty spot on tbh, I take your point on Seiko though 👍👍
I received my watch in blue today. Although I like the look and size the bezel looseness is a big turn off. Also although the bezel lines up at 12 and 9, 5,7 and three do not. I think it has to do with the cheaper ring itself. It seems to be on all the examples I have seen in print and online. The bracelet is comfortable but man is it ever sharp. I mean mine is really sharp. Running +8 isn’t too bad. For 57$ I guess you can’t complain, but if I can get a steeldive 1953 for 53$ and it’s of so much better quality Cadisen should really step it up.
I can’t say I noticed mine being sharp at all but I have heard similar things in the past. And as for your comparison to Steeldive, you make a very valid point that is hard to argue with 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime like your vids. 👍🏼
How does this compare to the steeldive or the tandorio?
Good question mate and tbh I don’t know as I haven’t had the others in hand, perhaps I need to get them in too 👍👍
👍
👍👍
bezel insert dimensions?
I don’t know mate. You’ll have to contact the store via the link in the description, I’m sure they will be happy to help 👍👍
Get new gloves or don’t wear any 🤦🏽♂️
If I could refer you to my more recent videos, you will see that I haven’t in fact already purchased new ones, cheers mate 👍👍
