Im a member of 5-7 different Steinhart groups, and the CEO, meaning Gunter Steinhart often swing by these groups to say hello, not many in the clock world do that, so the brand also has a great community behind it, and....theres never any fighting like in several other groups, these people love their brand, no doubt. For me, Steinhart is a great watch, and they do keep their price good second hand.

Very nice review. I agree with your opinions on the watch. It’s great for its price point. It’s not claiming to be a $5,000 watch and it doesn’t stand up to that quality. My honest opinion on homage watches is that they have a place in the watch world. I’ve also found that the majority of people who can’t stand homages or people that wear them, are the ones that buy watches because they want to be recognized in a class group for being able to afford the watch more than anything else. People buy and appreciate things for different reasons.

Steinhart was my gateway watch when I was new to watches and knowing I really wanted Rolex. I bought the Steinhart Ocean One in 2008 and wore it proudly for a couple years before I became obsessed with all things watches. I think I paid about $400 and for it and finally sold it last year for about $280 after it had been sitting in a drawer for a few years. Of course now I have my Rolex, Tudor, Omega's, and so many vintage pieces. But it was a great first buy. In fact I bought another Steinhart last year. The Vintage GMT with acrylic crystal. A great homage to the Rolex Exp. II Steve McQueen. I understand some people views about homage watches but it was a way to see and understand what I wanted in a diver first before taking the bigger plunge for more expensive watches. If you are debating going for a Steinhart I would say go for it. Wear it, enjoy it, and down the road you can sell it if you are looking to upgrade.

Thanks for the video. My personal view of homage watches in general (not fakes or copies, just homages) is that they are very much like a shelby cobra kit car. I will most likely never be in a position to genuinely afford a seven figure car, but I still love the style and the way it sounds. But a $30,000 kit car is a pretty good substitute at a much more attainable price point. I love subs not for the prestige of owning one, but because I think they are the most pleasing design for a diver. I can't really justify a $7000+ dive watch, but $500 for a pretty good substitute is palatable. As long as you're not pretending to be something you're not, it's perfectly fine.
@007Chancellor Жыл бұрын
I've owned both - though the Rolex was a few decades ago. I hated when Rolex went to the "maxi-case" and the lugs no longer tapered down and sort of blended with the bracelet, so I never replaced my old Sub with a new one.

Most kept decent time, however my GMT and my current Day/Date both kept horrible time. I'll keep my latest Day/Date due to sentimental reasons but rarely wear it due to its ineffective time keeping. I've had it serviced 3 times and it's never been corrected properly. I actually did a lot of research on the Steinhart Ocean 1 and ordered one from Germany two days ago before seeing your video.

Great thorough review. I agree... it’s obviously an homage but that’s the case with so many brands. Tudor, Seiko, Longines, Hauer and even Omega have all made diver utilitarian watches that resemble the Subs and the GMT’s. Yet they also have their own personality. Now this Steinhart probably walks the line of a flat out copy, but it’s not why I would call a “ fake Rolex “ . It is a legitimate Swiss brand with quality components . It uses the same movements that other brands like many of the Swatch group brands. Also when u navigate through their website, it’s only the GMT and the Sub that they get inspiration from, as their other offerings are their own.

Thanks for the great video. I am new to watches, but can you explain the purpose or how to use the rotating bezel? I know it has to do with timing or something to that effect.
@JustBlueFish5 жыл бұрын
You rotate the zero marker of the bezel to where the minute hand is pointing. As time passes the minutes hand will point to a graduation on the bezel, indicating how many minutes has elapsed- up to a maximum of 60 minutes.

Have a date submariner but looking at these as an alternative, look terrific, do not understand the snobbery, need something to go swimming with at the local pool! Could buy this watch instead of getting a Rolex serviced! 😂

After researching the steinhardt. For the amount of times I heard homage it reminds me of the scene in pearl harbor when the two younger pilots get in trouble so ben affleck's character says they were doing it in homage to Doolittle.

The issues I've always had with Steinharts are: shit lume; mediocre bracelet; horrible, tight action/bezel ... besides that, it's a decent watch. Bezel is much better on Squale's and Glycine's at the same price point, but bracelets and lume on those are mediocre as well...
@JustBlueFish6 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching Priv. It is a decent watch, with as you've pointed out, a few shortcomings - which aren't too uncommon at this price point. I've never seen a squale or Glycine in person, I'd love to get some of those on loan for review at some point.

I just gave a Squale root beer away to a friend a few months ago or I'd send both, but I still have the Glycine Combat Sub if you want me to ship it to you (on a NATO now, but I have the bracelet somewhere... ) - let me know

If my dive watch bezel was a little stiff, I would hang my hand in the ocean to lube it with sea water. It would be fine.😇. I have long thought the Ocean One is a great value. Well done Guy.
@1SaG3 жыл бұрын
With salt water, you'll eventually run into trouble doing this. 1. Salt water is corrosive as hell - just ask any boat owner. 2. The water will get under the bezel and eventually evaporate. When it does, it'll leave behind the salt, possibly blocking the mechanism. As with all things metal you're using in/near/on the ocean, you should always rinse them off thoroughly with fresh-water afterwards.

It seems like Steinhart made a homage based on the 5 digit Submariner. Is that right??
@AUXdrone2 жыл бұрын
The homage argument just doesn’t hold up to scrutiny. Nobody calls a desk lamp a homage lamp. Nobody calls a refrigerator an homage refrigerator. Or a tire an homage tire. Excellent design will always be reproduced. I think the homage-haters get “homage” and “counterfeit” confused. If the idea of an homage watch offends you, then go buy a sub, or a royal oak, or nautilus…or pipe down. But if a product is not directly trying to deceive one to thinking it’s something it’s not, then i don’t see the problem. Merely recognizing near perfect design is not counterfeiting. It’s funny because i don’t hear this discussion in literally any other community. If you mistake an invicta for a rolex, that’s on you…not the wearer.

That’s Rolex Magazine Issue #6. You might be able to find a copy on eBay. Rolex ADs gave them out, so you might be able to find a copy at a local authorized dealer as well, but it’s probably 6 months old now so you’ll have to hunt one down.

@JustBlueFish6 жыл бұрын
Rolex as a brand in general is overpriced. The watches are great, but you are paying a premium for the brand name for sure.
@mikeyshanghai98015 жыл бұрын
The question should be: is the Rolex brand 20 times stronger than the Steinhart brand? If you think this is a hard question to answer. Perhaps you can look at it this way: if you randomly pick 100 people on the street, would the number of people who know/recognize the Rolex brand be 20 times more than the number of people who know/recognize the Steinhart brand? If you do that, the chances are: conservatively speaking you will probably get 90%+ who will recognize the Rolex brand and probably less than 5% who will recognize the Steinhart brand. That’s where the price differential goes - marketing and promotion of the Rolex brand worldwide for decades!
