Excellent comparison bro!...I bought both heimdaler black dial with waffle strap and Steeldive blue dial with bracelets sterile no logo for comparison purpose ,too. Its also due to the value of money rather than buying 1 spb151 willard of usd1200 but I had 2 similar watches for less than usd300! A no brainer indeed! Hahaha..i have modded my heimdaler with seiko 6105 willard dials...so happy...highly recommended purchase!

That was a great comparison. I spent ages muself trying to decide which one to get, and went for the Heimdallr simply because I preferred the gloss dial. I put off buying it for a while, until I learned that for a couple of days in March, Heimdallr had their 6105 on sale for an astonishingly low $109, and it said they had only 2 in stock, so I grabbed one immediately. Very happy with it at that price. Great watch.

Nice review as always. I wish there was a comparison on the lume based on longevity. A burst of brightness at the start does not necessarily mean it is better. For me I need at least 6 hours of legibility of the hour and minute hands and the pip. I will not spend money on anything less. Some people may need up to 8 hours. I guess it may be too much to ask for some low cost watches but that is exactly the kind of info that the consumers want.

Thank you for the descriptive video which is appreciated very much. Will appreciate though if the recording could have been a bit LOUDER fyi and no offence just a matter of concern. One more thing is that when it comes to the 2 watches though The Heimdallr is guilty on the full rotation with regard to The Bezel but The Bezel is much TIGHTER & NO BACKPLAY one must say. I have both and both have their plusses and minuses as you mention in its own right but I feel The Heimdallr comes on strong in SHAPE very much similar to my ORIGINAL SEIKO 6105-8119. It is all to do with THE LENGTH OF THE CROWN & THE LOWER BODY EDGES THAT ARE MUCH CURVISH if you observe Can we do a comparison with these 2 watches vs The SANMARTIN /TANDORIO 7MERKUR &SEIZENN???

With the Steeldive SD1980 I've gone for the blue rather than the original black, so it screams NOT Seiko, but got the aesthetics of the original. I love the Tudor blue and this is the closest I've got to it AND it's got a Seiko movement so Seiko obviously approve ;) - Also wearing it with an copy of the chocolate bar strap worn by Martin Sheen in Apocalypse Now from Uncle Seiko - feels / looks good😁👍

the heimdallr has a case more true to the original EXCEPT for 1 tiny detail: they have not cnc'd out the 2mm round shape around the crown tunnel . So sharkeys are best for modding into original look. They even have a high beat version wither ETA/Seagull and those come with a lock 'n arrow (counter clock wise) screw down crown. Stuff to improve: Use a seiko style click spring and raise the bezel a bit and let us SEE the grooves for the click spring from the side. Also keep the slots on the coin edge more in accordance with the 6105. Give us a bezel insert as seen on rdunae rectangula.

Well my Heimdallr 6105 8110 is quite different to the one shown here. It's got a dome sapphire crystal without AR coating and a matt bezel that might be aluminium, the handset has angled edges on the hrs & mins, polished but matt top surfaces not to mention a bomb type design at the point of each hand. A red squid immediately above the 6 o' clock position, and perhaps most importantly, is powered by the ETA 2824-2. I have to say that I thought I preferred ceramic bezel inserts, but the matt possibly aluminium one on this looks great and the black really frames the dial nicely, ceramic maybe harder wearing but because it's so reflective some of its border of contrast effect is lost (if it's reflecting it tends to blend with the crystal) also it allows the vpolished top edge of the bezel to really standout. Yes I admit this is one of Heimdallr's custom creations and tho' the differences are subtle they combine to make a truly outstanding example of this iconic timepiece. Lastly the brushing on the case is finer than that of my SD1970 and altho' I've bought a bracelet for it I am for the time being wearing it on the supplied, signed waffle strap. Boy does it pop! This surely makes a strong case for the ultimate Captain Willard... Great video, thanks.

I agree steeldive and addiesdive share common parts and their previous models were just dial renames. Maybe not from the factory that makes parts for seiko for deffo a common supplier

I got the Heimdall for 145euro incl shipping. Still a great deal for an automatic diver with sapphire/ceramic and NH35 movement. I think the Heimdallr wins and I dont care about the score.. Heimdallr wins because: Dial is more blackish Clasp is NOT stamped(thats very important) Minute and hour hands are BRUSHED and not that cheap shing hands like the Steeldive Better lume (not a christmas watch with all those colors on Steeldive) Better case finishing (edges more sharper and more fined details) Better/thicker lugpins Sapphire is lower and is not sticking out like the Steeldive Less play in the bezel!!! And thats why its worth 145euros! Yes Steeldive is much cheaper, but common 145euros is not that high at all for so much watch. There is no watch for 145euros with this much quality. Heimdallr all the way. IF the Steeldive was for an example 5000euros and the Heimdallr 10.000euros, then yeah ok the Steeldive wins... But 75euros or 145euros.... the difference is pocketmoney LOL... What is 70euros..... With 4 people to Macdonalds is 70euros 🤣🤣

I think Steeldive is giving you a kickback for this...previous " Unbiased" reviews pointed out Heimdaller to be the all round better option. I Think you are becoming ..Corrupt mate.

Lmao yeh right. This ultimately comes down to VALUE for money. SD is the better VALUE for money option. Steeldive doesn't give me anything as it doesn't matter to me which one is better. Its for you guys. I would prefer the heimdallr myself but doesn't change the fact

OMG exactly this video what I wanted and waited for long time. I have both watches too. Heimdallr has Pepsi bezel, Steeldive has black. IMHO Heimdallr is better in every way but for almost double price. I bought the Steeldive for $87 the Heimdallr was $169. Since I have both I like them both but Steeldive is waaaaay more value for the money. In my consideration, this is the best overall value watch on Aliexpress currently. Not mentioning the lumed bezel which I love on the Steeldive. I wish if they make it with Pepsi bezel. Thanks bro.

The prices on the Heimdallr seem to fluctuate a lot. I bought my Heimdaller in March for $109. Just a few days later they form $50 more.
