Steeldive Men's Automatic Watch SD1953 Stainless Steel NH35 Movement 300m Diving Watches

This watch is why I will never buy an expensive watch again. Made from the same 316L stainless that a Submariner is made from. It weighs more than a Submariner 185 grams vs 155 for the Sub. The band comes big but was easy to adjust with the pin tool that came with it. The Chinese don't have to fake a more expensive brand, they can be proud of their own, which is 90 times less expensive. You can buy this watch and a good used car with the $ left over. It costs $500-$1000 to completely overhaul and oil a watch...........Now, I will just buy a new one. PS Just got my 2nd Steel dive watch - The black/black one. Just as nice as the green one. So which one is right for you? After all, neither tell time, you have to look at them. FYI The Seiko NH35 movement is widely used in various watch models, especially those from microbrands and certain larger manufacturers due to its reliability and cost-effectiveness. Below is a summary of some notable watch models and brands that utilize the NH35 movement: Brand/Model Type Features Seiko Diver's Watch Automatic, 21,600 bph, suitable for diving. Orient Dress Watch Elegant design, often with a date complication. Invicta Diver's Watch Robust design, various styles and colors. Hamilton Casual Watch Classic look, combines quality with affordability. Vostok Military Watch Sturdy, often with NATO straps, rugged aesthetics. Steinhart Vintage Style Pilot watches with vintage charm and modern reliability. Pagani Design Sports/Professional Budget-friendly features mimicking luxury watches. MKII Watches Customizable Limited editions with high attention to detail. Additional Information Swiss Brands: Some Swiss brands have started using the NH35 due to its high precision and lower production costs compared to in-house movements. Microbrands: Many microbrands prefer NH35 for their custom designs since it's readily available and offers solid performance. The NH35 is appreciated for its versatility, making it suitable for a diverse range of styles from casual to formal.

It's a big,heavy, diver's watch! Looks great on my wrist and the look and the quality suggest something MUCH more expensive. And, it keeps nearly perfect time so far! For a mechanical watch and at that price, amazing!

I thought this watch was an attractive watch at a great value. Its basically an off brand steel dive case with a NH35 movement (I assume, I haven't opened the case). The one I ordered is a 'smurf' style (blue dial, blue bezel, oyster type bracelet). The watch comes with an appropriate sized small snap plastic case with padding inside, a double ended combo tool for watch bands, and a very cheap press to remove a watch band pin (Its sufficient to adjust the watch band at least once but not much more). It came with a basic manual on the movement in multiple languages, and a green warranty card. It did not come with instructions on the band, and taking a link out, but a quick video search will show you how to do that. I didn't think to check before I started, so I originally tried to drive the band pins out backwards, but I got it done and sized for my wrist. Unless you have a monster wrist, you will probably have to take out one link, maybe two. My one real gripe and one star deduction is the magnification window on the date. I am not sure if it is overmagnified or undersized, or just distorted, but basically the watch has to be perfectly oriented to read the date correctly since if its not, the magnification is mostly just distortion. It happened to be on the 16th when received, but I believe it said it was the 6th, because the '1' is reasonably small and unless perfectly centered in your viewing you won't even see it. It would in fact be easier to read without the magnification window. But there is a magnification window on the name brand watches, so this one has to have one too. But since I paid $130 for the watch not 10k h I will ignore the date function. Is it really worth the 1 star deduction, logically no, its such a great value, but aesthetically, that distorted blob where the date is seen every time you look at the watch to check the time. Its rated for depths to 300 meters, which of course none of us are able to test since recreational limits are 40 meters. I'd say you probably be okay diving with it as it does have a screw down crown, but it is an inexpensive clone so its always a crap shoot. I usually dive internationally and don't take any jewelry with me on those dive trips, so I won't know till I do some US diving, and even then its been almost 25 years since i dove without a computer so the watch is more decoration for diving rather than an essential timekeeping piece for diving. I ran one of the free timing apps on my phone, and the watch showed as 2 seconds per day fast, (when fully manually wound) sitting upright. Which is certainly acceptable to me.

for 2% of the price of rolex. you get a better looking watch than any other one sub. i like the proportions and it’s not a bad watch at all. i’m happy w it because it mimics Rolex, the proportions are way nicer than Movado or citizen or even seiko. note: this is still a cheap watch. The hands don’t lineup well with the time. The bracelet is shaky, a little bit. keep in mind it’s 150$ not 10k.

A lot of watch for the money....quality if we'll beyond tbe price.

This Steeldive SD1953 is a tremendous value for a watch that costs just over $100... Seriously, I realize I bought a homage to the world famous Submariner but I am completely satisfied with what I received. It has a NH-35 movement, sapphire crystal, and it's been working great. The design is very clean and the quality is good.. This watch was expertly packed and it took time to unwrap the plastic/bubble sealing, so it's ovious Steeldive cares about getting you the watch is pristine condition. Overall I just bought this steeldive because I like affordable watches that I can wear around town and work without worrying I'm going to break the bank on luxury watch costing thousands of dollars. If you want something that looks good and is just fun to have as a daily wear watch, then this will do the trick... It you want real expensive luxury brands for special occasions, then make sure your checking account is very well funded and look elsewhere.

Low quality finish. Sharp edges at the case, clasp and bezel. I paid 160 euro but the watch is worth 50 euro in my opinion. I gave 2 stars because the return was pretty straight forward and I got my mony back.

Excelente relación calidad pero. Tengo muñeca delgada y se ve bien. No se ve grande. Se siente sólido.

Bought this because it resembled a watch that I own but don’t wear other than very special occasions. I didn’t expect much from a less than $200 watch but the watch is quite nice, I love how closely it resembles my submariner, without being a “replica” counterfeit that I refuse to buy. So far this Steeldives watch has been great and I’m happy with it, especially its look. People ask me why I’m wearing my submariner and I have to tell them it’s not that watch! I don’t have to worry about it being stolen or damaged since it’s so affordable. It keeps great time, so far has kept accurate time with no noticeable second loss. (1 week use so far), and it is really good build quality, the luminescence on dial and hands is not too bad either when viewing at night. Buy this watch, you won’t be disappointed.

Relógio muito bonito e de ótima qualidade.

Eccellente
