I'm glad you feel the same as me about these watches.....I got a silver second hand version from the first batch, and a few weeks ago took delivery of a blue hand.......! Goodness me, these watches make me smile every time I look at them. I've spent about 30 quid extra for each of them to live on premium quality leather and they both just blow me away! For less than a hundred pound each they are absolutely stunning! The finishing is without fault on both..( bear in mind that the maker has recently had to produce around 400 in order to fulfill demand) so this is very impressive for a small producer! All in all, I love them..and they cause me to question what else I'd ever need. Then I quickly remember the other 59 pieces on my radar. 🙄

Zeb, that Presage bracelet on the Escapement Time looks absolutely spot on! So, I guess I’ll have to spend $500 for the Presage, source the bracelet, toss the timepiece, and put the bracelet on my $80 King Seiko homage. Got it! 👍😁😉

I really enjoyed your review of this watch. I agree with you as regards the size of this watch, I have the King Seiko 44-9990 and I believe the case diameter is 37 mm . That escapement time watch looks unbelievably good for what you are paying.

Mine was delivered today. Such a beautiful watch. Cream colour makes everything very visible and classy. Blue hand with no date. Wears so well with the thin case and light weight. Would be great to see a hi beat automatic version. I've got the conquest homage on order. I can't wait. This is one of my favourite looking watches in my collection.

Slick watch, looks waaay slicker on that pressage strap. Great job matey 👍

I got the same one, it's so good I'm thinking of getting one with the blued second hand so I can use it with a bracelet . The finishing on this piece is fantastic.

Really nice watch. The finishing looks really good to be fair, think I'd opt for the blue second hand.

I am the same, I cannot stand straight bar end links on a curved case.

My friend, i'm more than impatient to get this watch on my hand (i assume it's at customs right now...). Got one from the new bunch, did'em with the blue seconds hand again. As for the strap, i'll try to match it with a cork strap, for a start (will send photo to you and ...the Honest man! 😉). Then, i'll go nuts, it's a strap monster anyways. Yup, that's a winner for sure, enjoy mate. Honestly (... he is in love with this too, as far as i'm aware...). Cheers lads! PS Was looking for stingray leather straps the other day for this watch, magnificent pieces, but cost almost double than this watch! Pass...

Fantastic review, brilliant find putting it on that Presage bracelet! Bravo 🙌

That bracelet is perfect!

That does look great on the Presage bracelet. This watch is a strap monster. I have mine on vintage style distressed brown leather strap, which I absolutely love.

Was already waiting for more stock to come to buy this one, but when I saw you were going to do a review on your fb, figured I'd wait for your link. Absolutely love what escapement time are putting out. Bracelet is definitely a winner for sure! Maybe I'll get one and just copy you hahah

Love that case it looked great on your wrist and yes the seiko strap is the ticket fantastic video Thanks Mate

5 bar water resistance. It's in the specs of the watch. I have a blued second hand model on the way. Such a beautiful watch. Good review, thanks!

Received.this a few days ago...in love with it! I normally go for divers or field watches but this is stunning and great value..got mine on a geckota brown Italian leather with cream stitching...looks superb.

Beautiful watch

it looks indeed amazing on the seiko bracelet. good job with the various strap options!

Great review as always my friend. Ray from USA

Down the Rabbit hole loving sea stuff.

Good review and strap choice !

I've got to know so much aliexpress fun watches because of this channel. Thanks!

I just got my new 40mm white dial version and I was pleased to find out that I already have a stainless steel bracelet that is a perfect fit. First I tried the Strapcode oyster bracelet for my Seiko Alpinist Sarb017 but I didn’t work. Then I remembered the oyster bracelet that came with my Hamilton Khaki Field 38mm. Looks and feels like it was designed for the Escapement Time watch - complete with female end lengths so the original lug to lug dimension is unchanged.

It’s a 50 meter water resist. Mine arrived yesterday and I’m looking forward to featuring it on my KZfaq channel bro. Nice one 👍🏻

I found another bracelet that is a good fit for the Escapement Time - the bracelet from the Seiko SUR307/311/309 series will work great. This is an oyster style.

For people who don't wear watches that much, this is a very good offer. Especcially the quartz thing.

Very nice watch! Lovely dial and hands. BTW, it has 50m water resistance so definitely OK if it gets a bit wet. I'd say Seiko do use that movement in some of their watches but they often use a different name for the ones they sell to other companies, like the 4R36A is the same movement as NH36.

Nice watch, like your choice of straps, very nice

Got mine on Friday , put it on a fine mesh bracelet and looks the dogs . I do like it on the Presage one though , i have a spare one so may give it a go . Wonder what else he has in the pipe line , has sold like 350 odd of these in the last 2 weeks..

I believe that the NH35 movement is called 4R35 when it is used by Seiko themselves

Great review! Well done! The watch looks great on the Seiko bracelet.

Gnoman for seiko bracelets, they have all you could want. Although I have one coming with a maikes light brown was vintage strap for me they are the best on Ali Express.

Great review! I was tempted to buy this watch but after watching your review I’m definitely getting one! The only problem is that I already have cream faced watches and I want either the green or yellow ones. Really torn between the two

I've been looking for a GS homage for a long time. This looks like a real gem. Thanks so much for your review.👍

Curious how it stacks up against the Starking AM-0184 and the Cadisen C-1032 - I know these are automatics but they are consistently ranked as very high value for money watches.

As usual, a great review. I've been thinking about getting one of these for some time, even though i've already got a vintage 1970s GS of a similar style. I think your review may have pushed me over the edge. - Damn you Watcher

I wonder if he would make one of these with a date window and a PT5000 movement???

The polishing is the deal breaker. If you ever see the zaratsu polishing in actual king seiko, I think you might be dissapointed. It makes no sense for bold & sharp case like that without zaratsu polish.

Zeb Sir I liked it when you showed it today on WRUW and now seeing it on my big screen I’m more impressed. Too Small for me of course but as a dress watch it would sit nice on the wrist with a Crisp White Shirt and a Dark Suit.As for the Second hand Sweep then hell yeah that’s Cool. Bracelet definitely needs curves case end links and I agree a Straight end link Spoils the look massively. Seiko will have their reasons for not using that movement which we may never know but it looks Great. I’ve a backlog of your reviews to get through so I will Sod Off And try to get through them Sir😜 Cracking review on a Cracking King Seiko Homage Watch🙏👏👏👏⌚️

I bought after seeing your video

Does the San Martin sub v3 bracelet fit this watch?

Looks amazing on the bracelet! Just ordered it.

Waiting patiently for my blued seconds hand version to arrive. It's finally made it to the united states, so should be here sometime in the next week.

Excellent video, mate. These went recently back in stock, and of course I quickly ordered the one with blue seconds hand and am awaiting it. A Seiko quartz movement with four beats per second, why the hell aren't more watches equipped with this one? Or have I missed something, I wasn't even aware there was such a cool quartz movement? I generally don't mind quartz, I have a few including a couple of chronos and think they do have advantages to mechanical ones, even though I still prefer having little machines on wrist full of cogs and springs that's way worse in accuracy than a quartz lol. But if the misalignment on the markers are too significant, it's always such a turn off. Hence a movement like this should be more common IMHO. Couldn't Seiko churn these out like the NH3* series? BTW, it's not all about the movement here - I love this watch design over all (could be a tad smaller though as you said), and would love too see more of retro homage concepts like this. It is a stunning watch for a great price. Appreciate the strap fashion show, I need to check out some nice ones for this when it arrives. Tbh, both of these bracelets looked great IMO, I don't mind straight end links when it's on retro watches. OK, rant's over now lol.

Thank you for the content. I saw some places saying that this watch has to replace the battery every year. Do you know anything about this movement that make this happen? Also, do you know which is the battery's model?

Beautiful watch but I'm not a fan of the logo or the quartz branding. It's a shame other brands don't use the Bulova Precisionist movement. You won't see a smoother sweep. Thanks for the review.

on the seiko bracelet looks awesome

Just bought a blue second hand version after watching your vid, Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.Thanks for your review.

Thanks for showing with that bracelet. Really helpful.Whats your take on which bracelet to go for ET fliger 42mm( version one) ?heard that invicta pro diver bracelet fits perfectly, may be you can make another video.

Veerrry nice watch!!!

Kent , clock fantestik . Bro спасибо за обзор . Дай мне пожалуйста ссылку на браслет как у часов Seiko Presaj , plizzzz !!! Спасибо Bro .

Hi has anyone got the black faced version, is it easy to read the hands. I’m torn between the white and black

Can you tell me where did you get that vintage style bracelet?

It´s a beauty. A little bit smaler would be more classic.

To be fair they are to pointy the lugs would've preferred smaller grand seiko hommage

Looks good,but I think that the timepiece is bit expensive than the other brothers at the same range.I will not give for it so much bucks.

13:20 Strap name?

The King Seiko is hardly unknown! I've moved on from Ali express knock-offs or these so called "homage" watches. You can get a nice Citizen dress watch for around the same price from a brand with real history...

Any chance you can recommend a bracelet either than the Presage from Aliexpress? 😃

How do you think it would fit on 16,6 cm wrist (6.5) Watch is gorgeous

I'm sorry, a king seiko with a quartz movement? If he came out with an automatic, I'd be in, but it has to stay thin.

Why isn't the color of your second hand blue?

Awesome 👌. Thanks

You have got to be nuts if you have complaints about this watch. It's as cheap as a Casio but the finishing is way better. For around 70 USD and ask for a better strap or something else is just stupid

How is it that people still buy seiko's like the coctail you are showing for 500eu with god damn hardlex ???!! And then seeing this beauty from escapement time for 60eu with sapphire...? Its the biggest FU i have ever seen in my life i would never even consider a seiko.

What happened to your thumb?

Why do none of the glowing reviews of this watch mention that in the specifications the case is plated brass, definitely not for me. Surely this makes my Casio Edifice a much better bet for long term wear. I have found the Casio to be an excellent well made and accurate every day watch.

Love this brand but just dont like the branding

They need to make bracelet

Never seen your videos. Eloquent, articulate and very able: My first impression. Thanks.
