Not a homage either, homage is tossed around everywhere so it's a copy, same design without the logo, copy is the exact same design and with the logo. I have nothing against Steinheart because it's affordable compared to a Sub. Love the Ocean 500 models.

You've made a couple of really good points in your video, one of which I have not heard described anywhere else in the way you put it. That was the "opportunity cost" of buying a Rolex Submariner. Yes, I can put together the funds to spend 6-9k on a used or new Rolex, but I can also think of many better uses for that money. What else could I do with that cash? That was part of my thought process when I ordered my 42mm Steinhart Ocean One Ceramic almost two years ago. I was also not sure if this style of watch was something I would really like and wear daily. So for less than the price of a routine service on a Rolex, I was able to test the idea. As it turns out, I really like the watch, and its performance has been stellar. But I find myself eyeballing a Pepsi bezel GMT more and more for something different. At $550 from Steinhart, finding out if I really like that type of watch will be pretty painless. Not so with Rolex. My final thought is this. The other day, I was sitting with a client negotiating a training and consulting contract when he inquired if I was wearing a Rolex and asked to see my watch. I told him it was not a Rolex, but rather a Steinhart I had ordered from Germany. He liked it very much and said, "Well at least I know you are not jacking up my rates to buy expensive jewelry." Then he signed my contract. Priceless.

But that is not the point he made - being able to afford a $9,000 watch or not is a different matter. He talks about one model the $400 Steinhart being a blatant rip off of another model costing $9,000 That comment defies logic and any semblance of common sense or intelligence. There is no intellectual property rights on the general watch design or shape if you like. The Steinhart is it's own model produced for $ 400.00 and a darn good watch at that, it's not a Rolex "Homage" as Rolex has no legal rights to those designs, even someone with an IQ below 50 would have to understand that. Rolex themselves copied their oyster design from MIDO. Rolex produces watches at the top end of the pricing structure, why compare a $9000 watch to a $ 400 watch, what moron would put videos on KZfaq and tell us all that he found the $9000 watch to be a little bit better than the $400 model, I wonder why that is????

I've got the 42mm Ocean One Black Ceramic and I love it! (7.5" wrist) I've had it almost a year now. I own a few other watches. I don't have the money for a Rolex or even a Tutor. And even if I did, I'm not sure if I'd spend that much on a watch. I did have my Steinhart serviced after about six months. The winding wasn't smooth any longer and I could feel friction when winding it. They are an amazing company with fabulous customer service! They told me to send it back (their dime) and said it would take about 5 weeks. I had it back in 3! I believe the Ocean One is an homage to the Rolex Submariner. However many would argue that the Rolex Sub was a homage to a Fifty Fathoms that started the look. I think Replicas are wrong, but like you said, the homage is a style. And it's legal for them to do this. Kudos to Rolex for outstanding design. I don't think they're loosing money over Steinhart and others because most folks with homage watches probably can't afford a Rolex.

@kaisoerfjord67945 жыл бұрын
Before you regulate it, try keeping it crown up in the box overnight. They say ETAs go slower in the crown up position, due to a different friction-total in the movement in that position. After 5 -10 years the watch may begin to move slower as the condition of the applied lubricant changes over time, so if you regulate it to slow it down now you may have to regulate it in a few years to speed it up, or have new lubricant applied.

Staying in a realistic price bracket, my money goes to a Seiko that looks like a Seiko (an SKX, a Monster or the more subtle Samurai), not a Steinhart that looks like a Rolex. Owning a Rolex does not make you life any better. If you can afford it and enjoy it, good for you. If you would rather spend $8 k on upgrading your kitchen or buying your kid his or her first car, and wear a Seiko SKX007, you will enjoy it just as much.

+Paul johnson Steinhart never feels premium because it is a "wannabe" of something else. Seiko SKX movement is not inferior to Steinhart's movement. It is simpler (ex. no hacking) because it wants to be extra reliable and fail proof for the people whose lives depends on it when underwater. It meets all the ISO requirements for a dive watch and hence serves its purpose. A "wannabe" can never beat a "be yourself". That is true for "wannabe"s produced by Seiko too !

Im a big Steinhart fan, member of all the different groups on facebook, its a large, loving community, you never hear any one speak bad about other brands or watch lovers, that sets the bar for me. Since becoming a Steinhart owner, i got friends from around the world, i would never have dreamed of. The gem in my collection of the brand, is a Ocean red vintage red mk1, i cherish this beauty. Advantage of being a Steinhart owner: You get quality, the owner of the brand, Gunter, often swings by and say "hello", in the different groups and comment on our pics. the groups for Steinhart is huge on Facebook, and great place to be..so...GO FOR IT.

I got started in this watch hobby with the Sub homages in 2011 then I got into more and more expensive watches. Finally ended up with 3 Rolexes in 2016. Actually had a Datejust too for 1 month so 4 Rolexes. I have sold them all and yeah there are other things in life like investing in shorting bitcoins when the inevitable crash happens :-) Or Real estate rental properties. I bought the Steinhart Ocean green 39 and a OVM 39 last week. Also bought Seiko SBDC053. Tudor BB 36 replaced my Explorer I. Overall got over $12k in cash leftover after selling my Rolexes and buying a bunch of cheaper watches (most expensive Tudor BB 36 was $2,300CAD used). Anyway I like watches and like to collect them. Tried other hobbies but keep coming back to this one. Tried going down to 2-3 watches but it keeps getting back up to 8-12. Getting all the Rolexes I want would be over $100k. I'd rather have some Seikos and Steinharts and invest in things that produce positive cash flow

Hommage is perfectly fine. There is nothing wrong if you want a certain design that is available for a lot less money. The only time you should buy a rolex is when the cost doesn’t hurt you. If you have to save up for a long time, if spending 8-20k really hurts your budget i dont consider it wise to buy. Youd be super careful with it and not wear it as it’s supposed to be worn. I could by a Rolex for example but i got a wife and soon kids and with being a middle class man id just feel egoistic and stupid if i buy a rolex now. Maybe in the future who knows.

Hi Serge, just a thought re your watch gaining 15 sec per day. Is it fully wound? If the mainspring is not fully wound and not transferring maximum energy to the balance wheel, the latter won’t rotate to it’s maximum and therefore will run fast. Try winding the watch close to your ear until you hear a clicking sound which indicates the mainspring is fully wound. When I first had my watch it too was running fast and once fully wound, slowed down considerably. As I said, just a thought........

In the Steinhart range there are plenty of other choices that don't come with the "look at me" then "oh, its not a rolex" stigma. But I do enjoy the discussion.

There's nothing wrong with owning a Steinhart. I wear my 39MM Ocean One then on other days I'll wear my Submariner 14060M or my Explorer. I realize you are really new to collecting.

For Steinhart OVM red, the quality is great for the price and its comparable to some semi luxury brands such as Tag, Tissot etc. Don't really felt ripped off by Rolex as the timepiece as it can be easily liquidated in secondary market especially for sought-after sport models. To me it just whether are you willing to spend the kind of money for a watch.

If you compare a Steinhart Ocean One to a Rolex Sub at a glance they seem similar but side to side they ars very very different. Homage? Eeeeeeh... Maybe. But a homage is not a copy. It's a nod or borrowing of a certain design. Not a copy. Steinharts are good pieces and use high end ETA. Steinhart also "homages" designs from others where the originals either don't do anymore or want obscene costs.. A great example is the Steinhart Apollo to the Panerai. You can own a Steinhart Ocean One and a Rolex Sub , put them in the same box and be comfortable with it.

Simply Serge When my Steinhart was running about 20 seconds fast I took it to a new watchmaker that just opened up a shop close to where I live he said possibly it’s magnetized and he would demagnetize (no charge) it and check it on his time-graph ( I forget what the thing is called) and if it was still running fast he would regulate it , and I think he said that would cost $75. Would you like his info?

You are wrong about the headlight example. Audi was first in the industry and continues to lead . All other car makes copied the AUDI brand. Thanks for the review and yes Steinhart watches are awesome.

Submariner or nothing. When you want a Ferrari, then you buy one. If you don't have enough money for it, then buy a Renault. Is also good. But don't buy something looks like a Ferrari, but it isn't. This is my opinion.

Steinhart make good pieces, nothing wrong with them at all. Tisell Marine Diver is probably the cheapest I'd go with a Rolex Submariner homage, but Steinhart is certainly better than Tisell. Rolex are obviously great too.

Copying is what human do since we were born so i'm okay with homage things, as long as they do't put rolex name on the dial when it is not a real rolex. btw, what is the song you use for background music?

Is it a Sin, that in my Opinion the Steinhart looks better then the real Rolex ? It's like Fallout 3 or Kerbal Space Program, the vanilla Version is a good base but not good enough so it needs mods to be nice. Steinhart 300m and 316L Steel that is harder and more scratch resistent than 905L Steel. The Movement, extreme good and like precise than the real one and not so expensive, so if something happens no problem. Or the size of the case. Not 40 like a womens watch or a dress watch, it's 42 absolute normal. And the Ocean One Vintage Red, is a hommage of the Rolex 1665, my god something like this don't exist anymore in the Rolex collection and again they doing things with it, that I miss on the original. All the quality for a unbeaten price. What a Dream. Or look at the GMT, it has 300m too, Steinhart understand that something that look like a Diver should be one. Rolex only 100m and wanna be Flieger Watch. And the Bezel, working like a Diver one but it's matter because you can use it easily as a GMT Bezel. I know they did it to save material costs but it works fine.

Its stupid and wasteful to pay 10s of thousands of $s for watches when the primary use for watches today is for jewelry and aesthetic purposes.

Yes, only time I take it off is to sleep. I wear it swimming, running, cycling, even fixing things around the house and moving heavy furniture. I consider it a durable sports watch that also looks great at the office. Cheers

@JungleEddie6 жыл бұрын
42mm is good for some people. I am a big guy (6'4", 320lbs, 8.25" wrist). I was torn between the 42mm and the 44mm. The straight lugs have made me lean towards 42mm. Now I have to decide between the OVM and the OVR.
@jimmunsw6 жыл бұрын
JungleEddie :- sorry but what is OVM and OVR pls? I m new to these words ;) Btw size 42mm is definitely better bcos d SS black submariner is so universally iconic that if u wear a bigger diameter size, it looks BOLDER n cooler for sure, though originally Rolex hv made smaller Submariner of >40mm dia. Hv u also heard or browse thru Swiss made Ultimate Imitation Rolex Submariner @ US$900 +/- ? Its top copy almost d entire watch in good quality watch material except if u take apart the movement u can see its a Swiss Eta or inhouse modified Swiss engine! Without taking out d movement its exactly same as a real Rolex in feel n weight! I m telling u this bcos once ppl started playing with China watches, they go higher n higher, this type is below d real Rolex n top of all imitation Rolexes! There r rich ppl will buy this type to go day to day wear to work, gym work out, bang here n there rough use, go make some scratches on this watch, while keeping d real Rolex locked in his home safe! Yes, thats why top imitation watches sold by the near ten of thousand pieces, just bcos d real Submariner got no stock n cost over 10 times d price! Enjoy yo all ya, merry Xmas n HN year too.... ;)

OVM is Ocean Vintage Military and OVR is Ocean one Vintage Red.
@jimmunsw6 жыл бұрын
JungleEddie :- oh i saw it now, u hv to becareful bcos Ovm is classic with YELLOW patina dot markers n hands lumes, NOT yellowish beige of original vintage watches! It may look funny in color when it comes landed in yr wrist! Ovr is okay if u like red, some fancy their favourite color, its personal. But imho Ovm looks better classic, but i only like it if its yellowish beige not plain yellow that looks air brushed rather than aging color....its a tough call for u, give yrself more time to decide, dont rush n regret later - u know what i mean, happens to me too ;)

i have a rolex sub no date and a steinhart ocean one and a bunch of other watches. for me its not a big deal that the steinhart is a homage . i think you can take benefit of both of the watch qualitys. for example, i use the steinhart for daily wear what includes motorcycle riding and the rolex for more safe situations. after a year of daily use of the ocean one there are some scratches and dinges i don,t want on my sub.

Once I saw a big sticker pasted on a dirty, mud splashed Land Rover which read "people who drive spotless 4WDs, don't really need them". You shouldn't have paid 8000 dollars for a Submariner, if it is not worn in "unsafe" situations. A sports watch with no scratches is a shame on its wearer ! ( Sorry no offense please).

I went to look at rolexs at a dealers . To be honest with all the pitch about whats between the face and back case . For £10.000 i was underwhelmed .it didnt look £10.000 i didnt care what drove the watch , i wanted it to leap at me and scream ROLEX BLING QUALITY . it was just a watch , i realised there and then , i must be mad thats a new supermoto motorbike AND full dive wing with twinset with regs .plus a kayak and nikon dslr , three steinhart watches .. guess what i bought 😆😆😆😆

Sensible thinking. I own both and I can honestly say I love both. But I would never recommend to anyone on a budget to splash out on a submariner unless brand recognition and history are very important to you . Both are very good sports watches in their own right .There is a lot of pretentious bullshit talked in the watch world .you have chosen well and your priorities are spot on. You will get many years great service from your steinhart.Enjoy !

It’s nice to own a Steinhart ocean one, at least no one will wonder if it’s a replica or real. I’m looking for a homage of the king of diver, sorry Rolex fanboys , it’s not a submariner, but the famous Blancpain Fifty fathoms , which Rolex kind of copied the design

I own a Steinhart Marine Chronograph which is an homage to the Panerai Mare Nostrum. I like this unique watch for $900 Cdn. At $10,000 Cdn, for the original, not so much. I have no illusion that it may increase in value. And it’s not a fake, it’s a real watch.
