High Quality at an Affordable Price. Thank You MyWatchCode of Hong Kong
This watch is an homage to the Omega SeaMaster 300 Spectre. Unlike the Omega, you can actually wear this one without worrying about it constantly.
I purchased this watch as a school graduation present for myself, and am so proud to have it on my wrist. I’m always getting compliments when I’m out and about.
This watch has some serious wrist presence without being obnoxious - it’s very classy and casual at the same time. The watch has some weight to it without being too heavy. The quality is palpable. It’s really solid, and you’ll feel it. I’d say that the quality is on-par with a 1980s Seiko… which if you don’t know is pretty darned good quality. It does, indeed, have an actual sapphire crystal, and the bezel is ceramic.
The watch comes with a very short and cheap Spectre-style NATO strap that you’ll definitely want to swap out asap. In fact, order yourself a nice nylon or seatbelt nylon NATO whilst you are waiting for your watch to arrive from Hong Kong, you’ll be thankful when your watch arrives that you bought a nicer strap than what comes with it.
Lug-width (strap width) is 20mm. The dial is 41mm.
The movement is, of course, the venerable Miyota calibre 8215. Something that you’ll need to be aware of is the “Miyota stutter.” What that means is the Miyota calibre 8215 has an indirect sweep seconds design, which is very common in vintage Swiss watches, even the very high end ones. Because of this, you’ll sometimes notice that the seconds hand appears to stop (or “stutter”) for a second or two when the watch is shaken violently or held at a certain angle. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the watch, and on the inside the movement will be ticking away without missing a beat. It all has to do with the indirect seconds hand drive-train. In a way, this makes the watch more authentic to vintage watch design than the modern ETA powered Omega version of this watch.
I am so amazed at the quality and workmanship of this watch. I really want to thank the skilled craftspeople of Hong Kong for their amazing work, and for making such nice watches affordable for the rest of us. Keep up the great work and know that you are appreciated.
