I was thinking of buying an Olevs watch recently and wanted to do some research and this really helped, thanks

I was browsing around Olevs watches, and this video really helped me out; I'm planning to get this one. Thanks for the help, Rosset Bespoke Butlers. Cheers!

I 100% agree with you sir! I have an Olevs mechanical 6650 watch myself, since July 2022, and it has kept great time! And yes the, people have asked, _"Is that a Rolex your wearing?"_ And I replied, no, its a Olevs 6550! And they said, _"Wow! I never knew, nice watch sir!"_ I see that your watch is the Quartz version, the glass is Hardex , still it looks good!

I bought a “gold” Olevs watch 2 years ago. I still wear it nearly everyday. The color still looks good on the outside, no scratches on the face. It did start fading on the inside of the wristband. Unfortunately it stopped ticking about a month ago thanks to a magnetic field. I’m in school for NDI and was doing one of my Magnetic Particle labs. I was using a handheld magnetic field generating Yoke. I got my watch too close to the magnetic field and it started going backwards. I hurried and let go of the button but the damage was done. It just held still no batter how much I tried winding it, it wouldn’t move. It was a good watch for quite a while and went through a lot of wear and tear but always held up and did it’s job. Definitely got a lot of looks and compliments and many people who were amazed about the quality of the watch when I told them it wasn’t a real Rolex. Bought myself 2 more just recently for $10/piece on Temu. Hope they’re just as good quality as the Amazon one I had. Highly recommend Olevs for anyone who wants but can’t afford a Rolex style watch.

Just received 1 not more than an hour ago. I'm stoked how it looks and feels, just need to adjust the band

I like to see this positive review. I bought a very sophisticated-looking George Beene watch from a thrift shop for $16. It wasn't until I got home that I realized that all 3 of the internal dials were fake and served no purpose but aesthetics. It bothered me because they could have kept those 3 gold circles on there for looks, but omitted the hands and numbers so that the piece would seem more honest. But they looked like real dials with real hands and real numbers and they didn't do anything. They were just there to LOOK like an expensive watch. Out of frustration, I looked for watches that have working inner dials, and now I have an Olevs G9947 with a black face, and a gold and silver metal link band. It has 4 inner dials. 3 of them work: stopwatch seconds, stopwatch minutes, and a 24-hour timer with day and night indicator. However, the top inner dial really annoys me. It looks like a spring for a tourbillon, but this dial doesn't move at all. In my opinion, they shouldn't have put that there if it wasn't going to move. It would have been a more honest design if they just omitted the tourbillon sping dial and just left it out. Plus, the whole point of a tourbillon watch is to watch that tourbillon and its spring in constant motion. This top inner dial is a spiral that looks like a spring, but it is just static and does nothing but annoys people who understand what that is supposed to represent and what it WOULD be doing if it were an actual functional part of the watch. But, it is a beautiful and sophisticated watch. It has a lot of functionality and it's really fun to watch the stopwatch reset once you've had it running for a few minutes.

I own both a blue and green Olevs submariner style watches that I paid around $40 USD each for them. In the 6-9 months I've had them I've put them through all types things without a second thought of the damage they may suffer and both have survived, sustained no damage, and still keep perfect time. IMO that's the main reason for owning a watch, to tell time, not to be some sort of status symbol, or impress anyone. Even if I could afford to purchase Rolex or other highly expensive brand watch I wouldn't simple wouldn't feel comfortable wearing it, and because there are so many more things I can think of where that money would be of better use. Thank you for a well done review, and demonstrating that a more expensive watch does not necessarily mean a better watch, especially for the everyday man.

Great, are you interested in reviewing more Olevs watches?

Just to add to my last comment if i won the lottery i couldnt live with myself wearing a watch that could home 50 people either sounds like your a bit like me in that way

I have a mechanical two tone Olevs with an open heart and day, date, year and month function. It keeps great time, I paid £99 from Amazon and not only do I think it looks great by my wife loves it as well. Now that's high praise indeed!

OY! This is a BEAUTY!!! Now I need to see, if they make anything a wee bit more water-resistant. I was VERY sceptical about Olevs, because their Amazon images are often obvious CGI fakes, not real photos. Surprise, surprise, you do not appear to have any special lighting, yet the colour and the glittery finish just totally POP like in the catalogue images. It really draws attention in just about any setting! The watch works, and does what a watch is supposed to do, and being quartz, I think we can believe your right on the second claim for one month so far :) The only question remaining, is how long the calibre will last. As long as it is NOT stuffed with a Miyota (personally suffered HIGH failure rate with Citizen, while all of my Seiko/TMI calibre watches take a kicking and keep on beating), chances are good it will survive 10 years or more, and if it does 10 years, it is probably good to good on-board a new Voyager expedition OH, if the calibre too is really Chinese quartz, I trust that more than Miyota and any Swiss quartz, no jokes here!

Good review. I've been wearing a quartz Hulk homage (Reginald) for four years and just love the look, feel and utility. Mineral crystals are very hardy, not a scratch on it. Strangely enough, I've never gotten comment on it, positive or negative. Canadians don't seem to care :)

I liked how that barista waited until you started talking to operate the espresso machine.

I got a free accurist watch from a car boot sale because it wasn't working i put in 50 pence battery in it and it works well in the last year it only lost 3 seconds you cant beat Japanese watches and i found out its worth 150 pounds new so im happy 😊

The days have long passed where Chinese anything could always be considered junk. The watch industry in China has come a long way and today it's possible to buy watches for less than $50 that are exceedingly well made and which will last a very long time. Pricing has become more of a marketing game than a real reflection on worth. For example, I have over a dozen Olev quartz watches all of which seem to be well made, well finished and all of which keep excellent time. None of them cost me more than $35 Canadian and this has allowed me to grow a watch collection which gives me a lot of pleasure when each morning I get to chose the watch of the day. Frankly, if I was one of the major name brands, i would be worried about this type of competition. Frankly, the only thing that in the future will ensure their survival is the ability to continue to appeal to snobbery on name brand, and goodness knows there are a lot of people like that

Such an honest helpful review as I was needing this before buying one. Thank u !

I have this watch in black/ white/ silver, it cost me more to get the bracelet adjusted than the watch. It's beautiful looks good on the wrist, the crown symbol is good, can't go wrong for a good looking cheap watch.

Just got my automatic version today! It's absolutely beautiful! This is my 2nd olevs watch and it's going right in the winder case next to the other.

I would call it a SMART move mate! Owning such a watch that delivers AND that also looks amazing for a fraction of what some other people pay for "the other brand" for status, is a real slap in the face

Thank you for your review. I was hesitant in buying one. But I will definitely buy one now.

Thanks for the discussion. Recently decided to pick up an Automatic Olevs (well two) to try out. A nice black and a gold - both of the tourbillon design.

Personally, I like the idea of a watch you don't need to worry about or fuss over. A watch that you don't need to insure, or that doesn't require white cotton gloves to handle, and if lost stolen or damaged isn't a big deal. Because it isn't the cost of a new car.... it is just the cost of eating lunch out.

I had to like this video because of that intro. Had me in stitches...Rolexs

Invicta Pro Diver 8926OB automatic with NH35 movement ..... solid, reliable, accurate and looks stunning. My personal experience. Cost around 70 bucks. Too good to be true but it's true 😊

Got my first Oupinke last week, which is basically Olevs higher-end line, and I was shocked by the quality of it. Paid $340, but it genuinely looks and feels like a $500+ watch

Just bought one withe leather strap looks amazing thanks for the review 👍

Great review! Thanks for posting and I just bought the same color

Thanks for the honesty. I may just go for one of these.

After seeing this video and the other ones you've done on this company I just bought 2 of their watches tonight lol. Greetings from over in Canada! I didn't get these exact ones but a green one that was very close and a catchy white and black one. Having seen your videos I think you'd be an absolute perfect person for a teatime chat about literally anything with. And that's a compliment because I don't have tea with very many people lol. My watches should be here within the last week of January apparently, so one could say I'm excited 😂 I needed a new watch anyway so this ends up perfect. I got two. 😂

Hello from America. Thank you for the video friend. I have the Hulk as well and I love it. Cadisen is another great watch company! I get compliments all the time on the Cadisen and its the homage to the day date.

i am finding that many people do not know the difference between a $10 dollar watch and a $100,000.00 dollar watch- only genuine watch snobs may know, but I don't hang with watch snobs. I have a few homage watches that I wear because I like the style. I just have better things to buy with the money I save.

This video convinced me to buy a Olev I started a cheap watch only collection this is perfect

I own this one (black face) and the ridiculous 'luminous' one. I bought the luminous one first, just to have a ridiculously tacky gold watch. Its very comfortable and then I bought the submariner for $14. Its well worth the money. nice watch(es)

Just bought one with black straps wow looks like a $50,000 Original Rolex 😊 ❤❤❤❤

I got an automatic one in blue from my fiancée and her son this past Christmas, it’s nice

Thanks for you detailed information. I also think it is worth buying a piece.

Just got this exact watch in the mail todaay. And I have to say its perfect.

Thanks for the review where I am I can get the watch delivered for the equivalent of £15.o4p. I should probably get one to try out at that price!

Just purchased the 7006 ceramic for testing and how it feels before purchasing a decent ceramic one. It was like 30 Euro

That intro was great. Do you really think they used that part of the brand name OLEV on purpose to look like the name Rolex? I want to buy one now so I can Sharpie the box. Thanks for the video.

There's a lot of good low budget watches like that. Good review.

Something that looks that luxry and detail for 40 bucks ? Thats a steal, paying thousands of dollars for a watch, youre just paying for the brand but someone like me who never cared about status would enjoy this as its practical, nice and very budget friendly

Think I might go for a $98 one with an automatic movement… might be a nice way to get into the watch game

got a regular ultra-thin watch. Cheap, but love it. If it wears out, just getting a new one

Just purchased a 1106 olevs. ❤

I bought one two years ago,it keeps good time,nice looking few guys thought was a Rolex.I did correct them added im so over wanting a Rolex. I respect the brand,but put that money in my boat...

thanks for the video brother. Keep up the good content.

Great review buddy I'm sold

I was wearing only my right earbud when watching this at first lol

Awesome beater watch, but, a Invicta is still a better watch.

My friend got killed for his Rolex, so I really understand the feeling uncomfortable about someone thinking you had that on your wrist.

Good video🎉

Thank You. To me watches are like women and coffee only ONE pick, after having so many women, enjoy your choice. It's about purpose and my self appreciation. It's more about who I am, not what I wear. plus they only last so long to buy a brand new one. after I ruin a titanium watch never buy hundreds on an object, where you keep your treasure that is where your heart is.

Homage watches are great, and clones are even great so you can wear something out without damaging your real rolex's.

Far from being a millionaire, I own three Olevs watches. Great brand

It's not the watch itself, it's the principle that you have an expensive watch.

I do love my Olevs, but also the reason i bought it is because I can’t afford a Rolex and the Olevs is always confused for a Rolex at first glance and it’s not a fake Rolex.

Have you opened it? Is the mechanism a cheap one, or is it decent? Someone at one review said it is an SL28 (chinese)... Also: it says Stainless Steel at the back. But I don't know if it is only the back or all the case. Thanks

I have the auto. Bloody good watch. I have a few watches and this is the only one anyone comments on.

I just ordered one of these I’ve never owned a watch before

An homage of a fellow traveler,

Great review by the way

Bottom line.... you get what you pay for. If you want superb Swiss craftsmanship, a long history and legacy, the finest materials that money can buy, and status and prestige, then you spend $20,000. If you just want a nice looking watch that keeps time accurately, then you spend $20. And the Olevs isn't even the best choice for that. You could have spent a little bit more and gotten a Casio Duro, that has a screw down crown, a screw in caseback and 660 feet of water resistance!

Great honest review 👏

I have 3 of these all look and work great

haha I gotten one too and see if anyone giving any questions about the watch im going too tell them someone that won the lottery and they bought me a Rolex watch for my birthday

I've just brought the Submariner green replica 200 quid

I like it. I didn’t buy it because it looks like a Rolex 😅 I bought it because it was cheap. 😊

Does this watch require a battery to power it or is it a wind powered device? Really hoping you would have mentioned this because I’m on the fence between this brand and an Invictus brand same style mariner

One year now and i really like my olevs. Have 3 now. Never wear my submariner

in my experience the japanese homage rolex homages are head and shoulders above any chinese homage in quality and reliability every chinese homage ibrand ive had has had issues while i know the japanese make their watches in china they hold their brands to a much higher standard than the chinese do

I bought an ole s looked real nice fake diamonds in the face, face was blues and silver real nice looking, but 4 months on and the battery literally fried inside the watch I cleaned out all the burnt area out a new battery in and it does not wish to work, kept the bracelet and threw the watch absolutely crap.

think of it this way: for $30 usd you are never going to get the performance snd durability of a $15,000 swiss rolex sub but its more like a " prop" watch for show and decorative purposes this watch im sure has glitches and is far from perfect and it wont be, how can u expect that from a $30 homage? its impossible but give them credit where credit is due who else could actually do this?

Thank you.

my left ear enjoyed this

Do you recommend me to buy this I am 13yr old

Would be nice to look at the watch

The watch "community" seems so shallow, people who aren't watch nerds won't even notice. I still think its a little tacky to have such a flashy-looking piece as opposed to something more conservative at a similar price but I like the OLEV skeleton automatic watches with the stars and everything because its just so over the top. I would feel similarly uncomfortable having a watch worth more than my car on my wrist too, its classy if you've earned it but to be a show off is so vain

thank you ❤❤❤

Its bracelet is folded or solid?

Good video, unfortunately I'm still not convinced. Not the fact that it's an affordable watch. As a matter of fact I have an Aragon Dive Master 4 EVO which is only $160 USD. What gives me pause is the bracelet and crystal. In comparison to the automatic version, mine has solid end links, sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel, milled deployant clasp. It just doesn't add up in value. Also like you it would feel like I'm a fraud.

Get a Tisell they are copies and not fake.

Rolex dosnt have a christal made of christal but Sapphire.

Had both….never want another Rolex….too expensive to repair…

Are the cases made of metal-painted plastic or are they stainless steel?

$10.00 watch or $20.000 watch-the time is still the same

Some case of this watch is alloy not stainless steel.

The video was good but you have to work with the audio. After a while it becomes unbearable to hear your voice in only one ear (left ear).

Now is 9.86$

is the bezel steel or rubber?

I love mine but....the numbers glow but the hands don't...lol😢

ceramic bezel or rubber bezel?

They know the price of everything and the value of nothing….Oscar Wilde. You need to stress test both. Hard.

How long did the battery last? Is it still going?

Does it have a screw-down crown or a regular push-pull crown? Also, are the hands stable while setting or do they go all over the place?

40£ or 20,000£ watch both watches shows the same time.

Even if you made an exact copy of a Rolex even made by Rolex on the sly by a Rolex employee if it didn't have the right serial number on it people would trash it just because the serial number don't compute that's how fickle human beings are these days !

what is the model number?

That 10$ on aliexpress that why i hate drop shipping😂

Here is the real question about this $50.00 watch and the modern technology that brought it to you at such a good price. Has modern technology made a watch that can compete with a Rolex for a fraction of the cost? The Japanese quarts movement is a technological quantum leap ahead of the beat Rolex Mechanical movment. CNC machining techniques and mass production can make this watch out of stainless steal for next to nothing. In essence has modern technology and manufacturing techniques made a Rolex Submariner a technological dinosaur? Is the only real appeal of a Rolex it's Status symbol status?
