HMT needs to Use Sign Crown and Transparent back in this price range ✅
Signed crown is there, display caseback is missing.
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial over price
@@jainsanjeev084 yes, it is over priced
U will become one of the best reviewers in India. U r different. No frills and un biased reviews. Thank you for amazing content.
Thanks bhai, such appreciations are motivating 🙂
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial got my first vostok from komandirskie as well. Had to book another one too. All thanks to your first vostok video. Even cns watch straps too. Thanks for such informative content.
Cwmj means Citizen Watch Manufacturing Co. Ltd
Thats not the calibre model
Correct calibre model is Miyota 8205
Thanks for sharing this 🙏
I recently baught wrist watch in the banglore show room.. Before 8hours ago.. There r 15 to 30 cent discount on different models... Proud on hmt.. Jay hind buy swadeshi...
🙂🙏👍
Where is the showroom in Bangalore where you bought from?

@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial Thanks
I've bought the same Kohinoor automatic. So far I love it. I've an 8 inch wrist so it suits me. I've changed the strap to a grey suede leather strap and it is far better than the HMT bracelet.
👍🙏
Thank you for this review and saving my 9K 😂
This watch isn't worth the price, There are better options available in the market. If it was in the range of 5-6k the story could have been different. But thanks to HMT fanboys this watch is also out of stock most of the times.
HMT has ruined basics of Kohinoor DNA. They should have made this in smaller size without day date window.
Glad that I could help Sir 🙂
I would rather buy a casio edifice than an hmt at this price.Yes they are in right direction with 40mm watches.But the new kohinoor quartz has a better new look.A 40mm quartz kohinoor at lower price would be much better.
Nice review..
An automatic watch the most lovable thing is case back and it should be always see-through case back.
Its nice to be able to see the movement through display windiw and it can be easily provided for dress watches like this with 3 bar WR. For proper divers watch like Seiko prospex, it comes with solid stainless steel caseback.
Recently HMT launched quartz Kohinoor B which hits the same sweet spot of classic size and shape
HMT should consider 38mm watches. Neither too big nor too small.
Also, water resistance needs to be improved. If someone has seen the HMT automatics of the 70’s - the finishing was way ahead of what one sees on current models.
Refreshing to see this iconic brand making a comeback.
Acha hua HMT KEDAR PREMIUM liya in 7250 mein fully satisfied and looks really awesome.... Such bolo yeh Kohinoor automatic se achi toh hand winding Kohinoor lagti chahe woh after market ho ya original, but thanks for the review bhai , always love you.
Thanks Rahil bhai
Kedar also has hacking ❤
I think Timex automatic is better in this price range
🙂🙏👍
Yes absolutely
Mera apna opinion du toh 40mm dial size and mineral glass is good change. But price isn't justified. I think Kohinoor Quartz B version would be money worth watch ha agar usme sirf date window hota toh aur clean watch lagta.
👍
Day date both are well visible. Go for Tareeq .... Only date and good shape, size
The new HMT KOHINOOR automatic is nice, I just wish it was a bit smaller. In my opinion 38mm case size without crown is perfect for a man's watch unless you are a bodybuilder.
Nice review bro...I too am a watch lover and eyeing my eyes on automatic...do you stay in Kolkata and would you like to sell this beauty at a discounted price😊..
I leave in Hyderabad and no discount on items bought with hard earned money 🤣 I am not rich on charity mode yet 😁
In India, people are running behind big size watches, esp young generation. Might be, this is the reason why HMT launched Kohinoor in this size, esp to attract young generation.
In my opinion, we should welcome their this decision (regarding size). But, yeah, they should launch its 38 mm version as well.
Hmt can capture its lost market share if they
1. Introduce kohinoor automatic at 38mm version
2. Prices the watch at 6.5k
3. Come out of their shady selling technique of releasing watches one piece at a time
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial The biggest flaw of HMT is that they have too many badly designed collections like INOX, Elegance, Euan etc. They should stop all those watches altogether and only focus on a few watches like Sangam, Rajat, Kailash, Kohinoor (club these four in a single premium automatic brand), then Janta, Pilot, Avinash, Tareeq (club them in a more affordable quartz brand). Everything else, they should scrap it.
I wish they could intact the same charm as the old one.
I agree
The messed up, the pillow design of Kohinoor was it's usp.
Cushion case is still there, but it bacame larger in all dimensions.
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial yes but it doesn't looks like the og the og was better in my opinion.
One of the reasons why I like to buy HMT watches is for the only reason that it gives me a feeling of rarity, now whether the rarity comes from people not buying it, or because their stores/numbers are limited I do not know the answer to that.
The novelty factor is what does it for me.
Sure, at the end of the day, all it matters is if you can establish a connection with your watch or not. My opinion is based on mechanical aspects, facts and figures only.
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial And that gives clarity, what I do appreciate is you acknowledge the emotional factors related to a purchase.
@@Sc0tophobia if I buy watch purely because of an emotional connection, then I do not care about any analysis. My Rado Diastar purchase at 1.17 lakh was one such decision where I thought by heart.
But if I need to buy a watch for spec, then facts and figures becomes important.
But one has to be clear of their theory, and then ignore the world 🙂
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial The last line is probably something I have started to realize in my journey so far.
Which is why i keep wearing quartz watches to work
I completely agree with you. They should have launched this watch in 38 mm dial and an open case back with better bracelet. Charge 2000 more but please improve the quality HMT.
🙏👍
i think they did right by having three different sizes. Otherwise in same size all three machines would have diluted the brand more.
You put cheaper quartz the size is also small then mechanical in middle and automatic is like ultra pro max
👍
What do you do for living? as watch collection is not cheap(from personal experience).
I work in MNC in finance domain 🙂, it is an expensive hobby. I haven't purchased any luxury watches yet.
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial you own a lakh+ rado
Hello nice review plz also make video on Argos Apollo 3 watch.

Sir pls can u recommend a light HMT automatic watch
Checked Kedar?
Brother where to find kohinoor classic original 42mm one
My experience after a week+ of having owned it:
Good:
- the matte blue dial is really striking
- automatic at 9k
- The fact that it's SS
Bad:
- Worst bracelet ever
- the polish on SS case is not great, it's much much worse than the fashion watches people make fun of. This is evident in the reflections. It is SS but looks like chrome plated.
- the markers are not properly applied. One of the markers is half raised and the gap is visible. The QC is horrible. This was my second HMT watch and certainly the last.
- the movement is acceptable, not so good.
- the outer packaging is solid but it came dirty and chipped badly. For me it goes to the dustbin, not in my collection.
All in all, I don't recommend HMT as a brand for the QC issues, especially the visible ones. I wanted a Kohinoor, bought it, but I don't think I'll ever be able to wear it because of the marker issue, it makes it look substandard. I can write with confidence that Fossil watches are much better, and Chinese AliExpress watches at half the price are much much better.
Thank you for sharing such a detailed review comment, it's really helpful to others.
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial thanks for the mention. Love your reviews and I'm sure your channel will grow with genuine information reaching millions.
14:43 recently I brought a timex automatic watch cost of 5000rs. It's a good looking watch.
Thats great, overall quality and finishing is better in Timex automatic. Crown smoothness is missing in HMT automatic.
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial yeah watch was good but bracelet quality not that much good. It's giving a lot of noise while the bike is driving.
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficialif you don't mind, can you suggest any leather strap for timex automatic watch.
@@Global_Library yes, these are folded link, replace it with good leather and it will look amazing.
@@Global_Library I keep purchasing Leather straps from various sources, check out the shorts videoa I posted on atraps I purchased recently from CNS. In India, Mr Gautam Haryani has amazing stock of straps.
I'm happy with my mechanical Kohinoor
🙏👍
HMT kohinoor quartz le sakkte hai 2500 Rs me ?
Always move time to 6 O'clock before changing date and day
Please try and show different bracelet on this watch which we can try... I was thinking of trying jublee bracelet for this watch
I have make a vidio on leather and nylon strap. I am yet to experiment with metal bracelet
Can you please tell me what size of strap I have to get for this bigger kohinoor automatic? Since it's dimensions have been changed, so what's the corresponding change in strap width?
20mm
Hello sir which vostok watch will come for 7000 and what is its model number how is ubay site i have searched it on google can you give some guidance thank you

Bhai
Apollo 3 Argos k bare mein kya suggestion rahega aap ka... Is it worth buying now ?
dont bhai it has chinese movement at 11k price Alba HMT or Timex automatics are much better
@@samarthkulkarni2396 website toh bolta hai refurb swiss
Doesn't seem to be too attractive in terms of specs vs price
Sir I am purchase hmt Kohinoor quartz but size is too small so m trying to return bt they can't allow me to return what can I do please suggest me 🙏
Sell it to someone else.
38mm would have much better but the main issue with them is availability
I wanted tareeq badly but everytime i check it was unavailable and i just let it go but yesterday i just randomly opened the site and it was available so ordered right away luck
The buying experience is third class with hmt and its one of the biggest issue with current brand value
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial agree i wanted kohinoor mechanical so bad but i didn't have money at that time now i do the watch isn't available anymore sad and frustrating
Ispe tho made in India bhi nahi likha😰
🤔
Sir one question can it be worth it to buy hmt kohinoor quartz
Sir HMT manufacture there watch on their own or not??
Sir my purchase will be depend on your advise
HMT Kohinoor Quartz is not something that I recommend considering the price. HMT do not have their own manufacturing unit, they are assembling watches with parts manufactured by third-party.
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial is it Chinese
@@BATMAN20002 I will not be surprised if this is assembled with chinese parts, as hmt is not disclosing information.
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial Thank you sir
Can I go for Invicta black diver quartz varient what's your thought on this
@@BATMAN20002 what kind of deal are you getting on that watch? Final price?
Better to buy Rajat if you want a good HMT automatic rather than going for this.
Good opinion 🙂
Now automatic after the quartz version.😂
Internal machenism is the soul of a watch for any watch lover.
This is just as a repack of any cheap Chinese phone in an IPhone's box.
People like to move a smoothly running second hand by the spring powered machenism, not by the shock of a battery operated quartz movement.
Only case and dial doesn't matter here.
Iam personally annoying for the business strategy of HMT watches. I got a Kanchan as a marriage gift in 1985 but it was badly scratched out only 3 months latter. They were and are using cheap acrylic crystal even their prime brands at that time till still now. Obviously there was very less competition at that time because the international market was not open as today.
Now you can get mineral crystal below 2k price tag and sapphire below 5k. Many local and global brands are presenting better fit and finishing if we compare from the price point.
Now, HMT watches became only the item of collection, they have no desire to establish this brand. Newly launch DWC watches are far better than this well known brand.
Thank you for sharing your view and experience, this is certainly will help others 🙏
Sir I have one question I'm thinking of buying Seiko snxs79 but my wrist size is 5.5 inches. Do you think it will fit me ?
It will fit well on your wrist.
Hmt sell watches nowadays its good but price were too high
I'd someone have 8000 budget so they go for casio edifice
Ok now I'm getting confused how many hmt kohinoor models are there please tell me what is best since i want to buy hmt kohinoor as my first hmt watch
You can make yourself familiarised with HMT by watching some of the videos I made on HMTs.
How and where to buy it. Im from hyderabad too

Can you recommended some reasonable bracelets.

I wear it daily and I don’t think it’s a big watch. Hmt Kohinoor Automatic is a watch made for real men. Its dimensions perfectly suits the wrist of a man. 40*48 is a moderate size of a watch. Watch having case diameter above 42mm can be considered a big watch. It has no comparison with ugly looking titan automatic watch and other watches in its budget.
I will suggest everyone to buy this watch. It has stainless steel case, sunburst effect,lume,day and date window,warranty of one year plus legacy of Hmt. It’s a durable watch that will last you a lifetime and you can pass it on generations.
Bhai ne promise pura kar hi Diya 👊
😁🤣
Sir you are the only one jo hmt ke bare me honest review de rhe hai warna social media pr logo ne iski itna zyada hype bna rkhi hai....As a watch collector mjhe hmt overrated and over prized lagti hai.... and thnkw for your honest opinion sir....👍🙏

@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficialNice review...please share your thoughts on (or review it) titan open heart automatic
@@Namstedost titan seems to be little overpriced in the automatic segment.

Why not

Great video indeed with comprehensive coverage....As u rightly mentioned the manufacturing details need to be transparently shared, as merely hmt labelling on imported materials would dilute the very mission for which hmt as brand stood for..

HMT sales is being managed by some dumb sarkari babu. Their website sucks, inventory management is shit and customer care is non-existent.
Kya hi ghadi bechencge ye log. Boycott HMT.
winter hand gloves keno?😂
Its actually a cotton gloves to avoid finger print on shiny parts while shooting the video.
Echo your frustration with HMT...
😁🤣
That should be. Scratch on,
Bracelet - 1 hour
Gold plating - 1 day
Glass - 1 week
Case - 1 month
Got this experience after buying 10 HMT watches within last 1.5 years !
Quality very poor compare to cost.
Hmt playing with our emotions😢
😞
Not sure if this is real hmt or few imposters controlling the new assembling brand also named hmt 🤔
Totally agreed, the only selling point that they have is our love and emotions for hmt.
That's a salmon dial.
No, its pink Sunray
@@WatchandmoreIndiaofficial sotti
Over priced
Fully agree
40 mm looks better than 38 mm, my opinion.
Thank you for sharing your opinion, many watch lovers prefer slightly larger case. But due to the cushion type case of Kohinoor, it appears bigger than a regular 40mm case.
