I forgot to mention, this is grade 3 titanium.

@YannickKhong 2 жыл бұрын

Any differences from the grade 5?

@thewatchverdict 2 жыл бұрын

Grade 5 is stronger and resist scratches better than grade 3. Grade 5 is more premium / pure and more expensive.

@@thewatchverdict considering most of the watch is brushed, would downgrading the titanium really make a difference?

@thewatchverdict 2 жыл бұрын

Not really, but it’s like saying do you really need 316L steel over regular stainless or 904L over 316L? It’s just a premium material that’s all. I’m sure for 99.9% of people even a base titanium is more than adequate.

Here are Easy Tips that will transform the wearing experience of the skx:1) Get a thin $16 caseback from Crystal times and that will reduce the height from 13mm down to 11m 2)File down the crown guards or use a dremel. All in all, have a 6.5 inch wrist and size and dimensions of skx were a huge deterrent and I had to resort to getting a titanium case from ALI EXPRESS and swapped the guts over. Excellent review I enjoyed it

Can you drop a link to that caseback?

One is on its way… can’t wait. Better than an skx for less… Great video thanks!

I really like mine. I sanded and polished the case back so that it's smooth and I put a curved case silicone strap on it. It's light and all day comfortable. Great watch. Thanks for the review!!!

Just received one of these with the blue ocean dial, its an amazing watch. No hot spots all smooth so not sure if they updated a bit. Sized is 105g

@thewatchverdict 2 жыл бұрын

Very glad to hear that, maybe it was just my example too, but I had to share it with you guys. I hope they move the spring bars and it’s holes as well as it is very hard to get a nato on it. Luckily, after market rubber straps tend to fit with a little pressure.

How light is the blue dial? I love the small rays on the dial but I´m a bit afraid they aren´t even noticeable since the dial appears to be really dark.

@laurentgagne892 Жыл бұрын

missing the round lume and day of the week though :( i got myself an orient ray ii i think it might be closer to the look of the skx with only the crown being at 3pm instead of 4pm

Hello! Nice review.. how is going this watch, any problems with the NH35, or too scratch magnet?

@sinjinadams2862 2 жыл бұрын

Great video! The first one I have seen for this watch. How dark is this dial? In your video, it looks more charcoal grey than black.

@thewatchverdict 2 жыл бұрын

It’s only charcoal in direct light, but 90% of the time it looks black.

@sinjinadams2862 2 жыл бұрын

Ok, thank you! I'll probably go with the blue dial then.

@roziroslan7891 Жыл бұрын

Do mod on the dial for actual skx007 or mm300 dial..

Hey, interested in this watch, I do see that date window appears little skewed 0:57 , is it so?

@hitsugayat10 Жыл бұрын

Notice it in some of the shops' product shot as well. I wonder if it is because of the angle

@trentm9372 6 ай бұрын

Looking at the time, it is after 10:30. Could it be that the date wheel has begun to turn the date? I'm not sure.

@thewatchzealot Жыл бұрын

Compatible with original skx007 parts? Including bracelet?

@thewatchverdict Жыл бұрын

No, the bracelet lug holes are in a different spot, closer towards the case. Aftermarket dials will fit though. Not sure about the bezel inserts but I don’t think they would.
