The price is a deal-breaker, I have a Seiko Mecha Quartz watch that is a Seiko. 100 meters water resistance of 100 meters. Price 150.00 It might be 200 by now. I am not sure, but for 750 dollars, I would expect a mechanical movement, not mecha quartz.

The Catalina was an amphibious aircraft, used in the Swedish Air Force during the 1950ths. In 1952 a Swedish DC-3 recogaissannce aircraft was shot down by russian MIG:s over the Baltic Sea. Two Catalian rescue planes where sent to look for the DC-3. My father was in one of them. One night he was woken up - the other Catalina had been shot down by the Russians. That Catalina sank in the Baltic Sea but the crew was saved by a civil German cargo ship. The DC-3 was never found until 20 years ago - it was then brought to the Swedish Air Force Museum in Linköping and its crew could be laid ro rest. I really would like to save up for this watch because of the connection to my dad. :)

I think it's quite a decent timepiece I personally would definitely love to have if I hadn't owned a bronze PAM homage already. Quartz or mechanical is not really a deal breaker to me if I like the watch, cause when you have a few watches (and mechanical eventually stop) sometimes you need something to grab and go and a quartz watch is always there for you.

Cool watch, but there's no f'ing way I'd pay that much for a quartz when for the same money, you could get a NH45. Also..agree with the circular date window...maybe if it was framed, it would look more finished. Oh..and I can appreciate your 7.5" wrist because my wrist is the same size. You have the largest wrist of all reviewers I follow so I can see what it will look like on my wrist.

Interesting watch.... at $700 it’s a super tough pill to swallow, especially when the heart is a mecha Quartz. Lots of micro brands, Seiko, OrientStar, and various Swiss pieces in this price range that I feel would easily outcompete at this price point. If you were to stretch a little, you could have a used grand Seiko Quartz piece with the famous 9F movement, and if you were to stretch to around 2k, then you could have a new GS Quartz piece....

Nice looking watch, but a tad too big and way too pricey. I think if it was about $200-250, I would consider it. The other thing is that the company is named after a line of Ikea furniture, I don't want people to think I bought the watch at Ikea.
@jhathaway52383 жыл бұрын
I don't really see the point in having a threaded crown. Surely they could achieve the same water resistance without it. I think the quality of the handset lets the watch down a bit. They're super flat and look kinda cheap. The lack of a running seconds hand would probably be my biggest gripe. That price though.. Not happening. Not with a quartz movement. For the same price you could get a bronze diver from Zelos, a quartz chronograph with 100m water resistance from Seiko, a full tank of gas, and a nice dinner with the family.

@jmount4113 жыл бұрын
Leather and nato's would be extremely easy to fit. You could squeeze a 20mm nato in there. I personally would use a undersized nato and have a tiny but of room but its honestly barely noticable. My beater watch is a quartz Seiko Flightmaster with a 21mm lug width. I always wear it on a 20mm nato and you do not notice the gap litterally at all. I have had the same issue with other watches i used to own like the Tissot gentleman was 19mm lugs and i used 20mm leather on it. The only hard strap to fit to odd size lug widths are bracelets. Even then you can fit them with a file if your brave enough to take on the project. You can take a dremel or a file or anything really and just take off a little material on a leather strap on both sides to fit the strap. Takes about 15 seconds per side and perfect fit. I wouldn't let odd sized lug widths make you stray away from buying a watch you like but it may take a little elbow grease to make things perfect. Just go slow and take small amounts of material off at a time and keep checking the fitment to the watch periodically. Very simple honestly.
