Do Sea-Gull Make The Best Budget Bauhaus Watch?

Bauhaus watches are expensive if you wish to steer clear of cheap quartz versions. But what if you could get a Nomos Orion Alternative with a hand winding mechanical movement for 6% of the sale price of a Nomos?
This Nomos Orion Alternative is an homage by Sea-Gull. It costs only £100 but it has a hand-winding mechanical movement. For the price it looks stunning. This is my review.

I've recently bought one and it's a beautiful watch. I'm thrilled with it for the price. Good review. Oh & the packaging smells like new trainers, what's not to like!.

No stop second, can revolve spring, 6 direction big different speed. Base on cheap watch, is ok.

Long time subscriber here! Nice review! Can you make a video comparing this watch to the Sea-gull Bi Disc? Thanks appreciate your effort!

Sorry but both have been reviewed and I cannot afford to keep every watch I review. If I did I would be broke and homeless haha 😆

Nice looking watch! Most watch reviewers focus almost entirely on the external appearance of a watch. I want to know what I can't immediately see: how accurately does the watch keep time, how accurate is the water resistance rating, how durable is the watch, how often will it need servicing, what is the length of the warranty period, if it is battery-powered how long does the battery last, and so on.

Thanks for watching. It is a difficult thing to put figures on accuracy as every watch is different however if you google Seagull movements they tend to be extremely accurate. I do not have a time grapher but after a few days with it, I get the gist. This one is minus 3 secs per day...pretty good :)

Beautiful watch. Just bought one myself. How's it been holding up for you?

Hi and thanks for watching. Unfortunately I don't keep all of the watches I review...if I did I would be broke and divorced. I buy these to review with my own money. I do keep a few that will be compared against in future vids. It's a great choice with a clean look and great movement:)

A very nice Bauhaus inspired watch, but unfortunately too big for me.

@johnswatchjoint Жыл бұрын

Just have a search as I believe they are now also doing smaller versions. As it is all dial it does tend to wear larger :)

@@johnswatchjoint Thank you! You were right: I found two versions by Sea-Gull in 34 mm. One with blue hands, small seconds and manual winding (819.612) and another one with blue hands, central second, date and automatic (819.17). The automatic will arrive tomorrow, the other one next month.

@@johnswatchjoint I have had the automatic for a few days. The case is impeccably finished and the movement is very precise at +2 seconds a day. I am pleasantly surprised by this Chinese watch.

i got this one.. and i regret it... because it is plain and boring... :( i should have buy the one which can show more watch mechanics...

It's a dress watch... they're simple... Patek's Caratrava is extremely simple, but it's the perfect definition of a dress watch. This Seagull is incredible in this regard.
