Movement for this watch is either an ETA2824-2 or a SW200. Steinhart uses these movements interchangeably.

Ah a fellow Singaporean! I bought mine from Gnomon about 4 months ago. It wears really well and the ceramic bezel is so glossy and striking! Swam with it already as well. Works the way as it should. I've had no problems with the bezel on mine. Such a solid and beautiful timepiece. Bang for the buck with this watch. I'm loving mine!

Bought mine yesterday! Such a beautiful watch..

In my opinion the size looks perfect for your wrist. I've got a bb58 on order and I'm considering picking one of these up 👍

I've owned this watch from new for the last 4 years and I wouldn't part with it. I also found the bezel to be very tight from new but it does loosen in normal use; easy enough to rotate with two finger and no play whatsoever. As long as you don't try to prize it open or anything like that you'll be fine ;-)

I got 6 Steinharts for the price of one Rolex and i dont have worry to much if i loose one i always will have a backup and loosing 10k at once Rolex nice but way to much worry if lost but with these at least you wont hurt bad and you got variety ..

So sorry you scuffed your watch. I would have been so mad If it happened to me. Thanks for the great review!

I was considering the Green dial Hulk version or the Batman GMT version both 39mm by Steinhart as well ! The Green is really bright cheery and the Batman GMT looks handsome too but lugs bit longer .. my 6.5inch wrist can't take 42mm as lugs would come real close to edge of wrist. But I won't buy for time being as I felt might be some quality issues later! I got a Squale Ferrovia but sadly the movement got jammed after only 2 months and the shop gave me a new replacement! I hang onto my Davosa Ternos for time being ! Thanks 4 pointing out the bezel issue ...

i’m getting this next week!! so excited.

I took the plunge three times. And I’m happy thanks for the nice video.

Yo! A fellow singaporean! I've subbed! Keep more reviews going! 💪💪

Just bought mine in 39mm!! Great Watch!!

Very well articualted review. Regarding big and "small" watches. 39mm to 42mm are perfect sizes for a dive watch - but, and it's a big "but" - the lug length also influences how big will watch wear. I wore a 38mm Gerard Perregaux chronograph for years - it looked way bigger on wrist and had massive presence because of the long lugs. I now wear a 43.5mm Citizen ecodrive which has 47mm long lugs so it wears perfectly. But 9 times out of 10 anything bigger than 44mm is way too big for the average male wrist size.

I had a mental barrierr after i bought my Rolex 36mm Date just, felt like a toy wearing it so small i was so use to wearing those heavy brick of watches made by Nixon and invicta. 70% of my watch collection Disappeared and I only kept everything smaller with a 40mm case. I now love wearing my Steinhart 39 ocean one with the Aluminum bezel its comfortable and i get a lot of compliments on it.

hello :) what is the thickness of the bracelet link? even approximated! 3 mm?

just ordered a steinhart ocean one red from Gnome watch 470 after tax took about 4 days to get to me in the me in U.S. really happy with watch the price and how fast the shipping was even with all this covid19 stuff going on. I was a little worried about shipping coming from Singapore but good tracking and fast shipping and im in the south alabama . and 470 was cheaper than ebay was 575 will buy more from Gnome Watch

Buy a watch, mess it up, then complain that it's messed up. 🤔🙄 I can HIGHLY recommend Steinhart. Outstanding watches.

I'M thinking about buying one! is this watch worth the 450 euro?

Very happy with mine! Nice vid

I agree, my Ocean One Premium had the same issue with the bezel. It was horrible.

Better tight than loose :), no innuendo intended, would have left it alone, nice video.

Re the bezel: Buy a very soft toothbrush. Rinse the watch under luke-warm water while *gently* brushing the bezel. Brush all around at a 90° angle - as if you were trying to get the brush between the case and the bezel. Do that for a minute or two... rinse watch again for a bit then let it dry out. Helped me when my 39mm Steinhart's bezel started acting up. 3:30 Not sure if they use the exact same hands (so difficult to tell when you're looking at two watches of different size). I will say however that I'm looking at my 42mm O1 Ceramic Green right now and its minute-hand does touch (just barely) the shortest of the minute markers on the chapter-ring. Same goes for my 42mm OVM and its sword-hands ... its minute hand also just touches those short minute markers. I did have the Batman titanium GMT (42) and the 39mm Batman GMT in my hands for direct comparison and I'm pretty sure those two did use the exact same set of hands because they looked a bit too fat and chunky on the 39mm version. So I wouldn't be surprised if the Mercedes hands of the "normal" O1 were also identical in size on both the 39 and 42mm version.

Thanks for the tips!

Have it on the wrist for about two weeks now. This will be a daily for me for the next couple years (rotating out if there is a special occassion. But on a good leather strap, it might even be good for those occasions too...)

Nice review. Appreciated.

Lively review. Appreciate your positive and relaxed comments about this OceanOne. I experience the same bezel stiffness with my #ceramickermit, 39 mm, but it’s a lovely watch nevertheless

Hey mate, good review! Im wondering if the dial looks grey or its piano black like for example on Pagani Design 40mm if u saw reviews on it?

I only wish that the lug design is more curvy to make it look nicer than it's current 'straight' looking side profile. I have the first batch watch from Gnomon and the bezel sucks. It cant line up properly and the backplay is pretty bad for a 490 dollars watch. After 2 years plus, the issue on date change starts to occur when the date wheel gets stuck sometimes when u change the date. Its wrist time is super low too so this kinda issue shouldn't occur. I guess the QC isnt that good even with the ETA movement as compared with my Tissot beater that i wear on a daily basis for 6yrs (without service) before getting into watch collecting hobby.

You can buy this watch for less than a Omega service. If that is not a bargain I don't know what is. Plus it has an ETA movement ! I have bought two.

Nice review. Keep it coming. I have ocean 1 and the its true bezel is a pain.

Hello want is your favorite quarter and automatic watch

great review as always! I see you own the Zelos Mako v3 as well, so how would you compare those two? Are they comparable quality wise? (I don’t mind the bezel issue) I am also interested in this particular model but I never had a Steinhart in my hands. Kind regards, Michael ✌🏻

Interesting piece. Wear it in good health. Regards.

Good review yo!

Nice review!

Where did you get this for $500? Im in Singapore too and Gnomon has them for $750 ish

Steinhart bezels are stiff at first. After a while and without adding any grease or oils it will get loose and become a good bezel action.

I got the older version with the less readeable bezel. nice watch bro!

I still can’t decide between the 39 and 42mm for my 7-3/4” wrist

Is it possible that all other versions of this watch from steinhart the beze numbers its not as white yours?

why on some other reviews the numbers on the bezel is not as bright as yours? did steinhart changed they're bezel or not?

which better 42 or 39?

I would think a couple blasts of silicone spray between the bezel and case would work. It won’t harm anything. Why doesn’t anyone try this?

I love this watch

Can I pull it off with my 6.25 wrist?

the new bezel looks a lot better than the previous version.

Singaporean?? nice one bro!

I had the same bezel problem when i got the watch, then i sent it back to steinhart and it cam back to me stuck even more with 3 scratches on my watch :'( Btw now my bezel is turning very smooth, to both sidessssssssssss :"((((

How did you finally get the bezel to turn better? I’m having the same problem on my new Steinhart.

I have to say, the complaint about the bezel being stiff is dumb. The friction is an indication of tight fitment, good tolerance. It will naturally work itself looser as you use it.

A Diver wouldnt trust a bezel which is not stiff.

Majulah Singapura!

Why wear a dive watch for sitting in an office?

The pointers are not the same in the 2 sizes, check here the 42mm kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qrSSpdupnbume3U.html

Hi where are you get this one ?

To be honest, the name " Steinhart " is nice ....:)

Well I would think the degree of stiction between the bezel and the case depends on the size of the gap. The same is true of high quality break-action shotguns. They are tight when delivered, and loosen up over the years with use, and I would expect the same to be true of the bezel on this watch. Your shenanigans with the dental floss and then actually trying to pry the bezel up likely have the watchmakers at Steinhart pulling their hair out. Would you try this with a Rolex? You seem to start with the assumption that the Steinhart is a poor quality cheap watch, that you can fix with your amateurish interventions. These are high quality watches, and deserve better treatment than this. The fact that this model looks like a Rolex submariner does not make it a cheap knockoff.

The box is NOT leather. It is imitation leather. I know as bought two Steinhart premium watches.

Crap. Bezel must turn smoothely.

looks good

Yes... generally speaking, Steinhart is superior in workmanship, performance and quality control than is Seiko. Sorry, Seiko fanboys... but it's true. And, no, you don't use dental floss on a watch bezel. If you find the bezel too tight (I love the tight tolerances, frankly), try a shot of WD-40.

What??? No Pip??!!

Since the bezel rotation stiffness was the only reason you could not recommend this watch ... I decided to order and mine will be here soon! I have a Rolex Datejust that is 30 years old and way past due for a service and new main spring. I can buy 2 or 3 of these Steinharts for what the Rolex service will cost and who wants to be on a waiting list for a new Submariner. Enjoyed your video.

I have a homage of the Steinhart Ocean 39… its a rolex submariner.

The bezal on a Orient dive watch is terrible . Omg . You screwed up yours . Don't blame the watch . Lol.

it's "submariner" not "submarina"

NO is the short answer. Buy a Seiko skx for less and have 10 times the watch and a million times the respect. Basically you look like you're wearing 2 stripe Adidas rip offs. It also looks... well like a piece of shit.
