I have one timex expidition indiglo...i love it❤...10 years battery life
@WatchWitt 44 минут бұрын
There’s no way this one is getting 10 years battery life, but still going now after more than a year.
@leewang6686 2 сағат бұрын
Yea many think the light storage battery will last forever but any kind of quartz time piece uses a battery
@WatchWitt 46 минут бұрын
Yeah, these will run on light alone, no battery, as long as the dial CONSTANTLY gets light! 😂 But that wouldn’t be very practical. When Citizen first came out with these they claimed to the affect of “never needs a battery,” which I’m sure has created some confusion.

Would be cool to see them do a mechanical movement, but would obviously drive the price up. Also need one that matches the subdial layout. That said, I enjoy this mechaquartz...it was my first, and I gotta say that the accuracy combined with the fairly smooth sweep of the chronograph seconds is a nice pairing.

Nem néztem végig a videót. Megláttam, hogy a mutatók nem pont a vonalakon állnak meg. Egyszer volt Timex órám, az ugyanígy a két vonal közé állította a mutatókat. Nagyon zavaró. Azt hittem, hogy az én órám hibás, de most már látom, hogy a Timex nem tud órát gyártani. A Casio SGW-500H órám másodpercmutatója pontosan a vonalon áll meg.
@WatchWitt 5 күн бұрын
It's hit or miss with Timex. Sometimes they hit, sometimes they don't. The watch in this video was actually replaced and the replacement watch did BETTER but doesn't hit every mark. I have another Timex, which is considerable less expensive, and the seconds hand hits all the markers.

I'm late to the party about the Hyper-G and SWC as a whole. I checked out the Hyper-G when I was exploring SWC's new Tremor model. I liked the Hyper-G so much that I ordered the last one in stock a few days ago. Coincidentally I own a Sofia II from Axia Time that shares the Hyper-G's titanium case. The specs and regulated accuracy of the Hyper-G, however, are superior to the Sofia II while the price is considerably less. Only one complaint about the SWC and I'm sure I'm not alone. The name of the brand is just awful. (Try googling "Swiss Watch Company" you'll see just how problematic it is. Not to mention the bizarre logo that looks like a fifth grader's doodle. I can live with those issues but I suspect others cannot. Change the name and the logo. The watches are cheapened by the brand name and the logo.

Thanks for this video. I'm looking to replace the cell in my Eco-Drive. However, mine doesn't have any notches on the cover. Any ideas on how to remove it?
@WatchWitt 16 күн бұрын
Hard to say, as there are a few different caseback styles. If you have series of small ridges around the caseback perimeter (almost look like a grip for your fingers to rotate it) then you need a friction ball. Or, if you see a little lip, almost like a screwdriver head, near one of the lugs...that's a snap on/off caseback. You pry/leverage that carefully to remove. But caution with those...they can be extremely difficult to put back ON without the right tools, and you risk damaging your watch...many will shatter their crystal while attempting.

I always promised myself the Speedy and in 2015, bought one, and I love it, but that hexalite crystal, and the fact that prices have now rocketed and wearing one makes you a target, these days the Pagani sits on my wrist most days, and yeah I know its not the same, but bloody hell its far better than the moonswatch and for less money (and yeah I bought one of them too!) Normally leave it on the bracelet but sometimes a Marine Nationale blue, black of khaki strap gets an outing. (Damn they're the most comfortable of watch straps). Anyway if you are ondering buying a PD, then don't, buy it and providing you can live with it not saying "Omega Speedmaster Professional" on the dial, you will love it.

If you're asking if this is a "vX" of the PD-1701, no it's not. They gave this watch its own reference number, PD-1779. This is the only version of the 1779...there hasn't been a v2 yet, that I know of. The version numbers happen when they update the watch, or add a dial variation. This IS the same specs as the newest PD-1701, but adds PVD case, partial skeleton dial, blue anti-reflective coating on the sapphire crystal, and a completely different strap.
