I’d love a vintage automatic dive watch but the amount of blatant knockoffs online is daunting and I don’t know enough about what’s legit or not. I’m not adverse to a frankenwatch but I want something that will perform reasonably and not fall apart etc. I prefer the older models because I have skinny wrists haha.

    Can vouch for Creation. Have used them twice with no issue.

    People get weird about them because they ship watches (with papers) in a smaller generic box, but that’s only to get it posted out of Singapore cheaply. For a few dollars more they’ll send it in the original box.

    Only caveat would be that returns can be a hassle as you need to pay the shipping and insurance back to Singapore yourself. So be prepared to keep or sell whatever it is you order!

      I’ve gotten a couple of Seiko 5s from them that came with the original boxes, was happy with both.

      Prices are decent but I’m thinking more along the lines of Invicta now haha. I wreck watches and sunglasses fast unfortunately. Inherent clumsiness hahaha.

      Cheers for the response, mate.
