Smiths Everest in Gilt
I always loved Seiko because of their 'bang for buck' but as their prices started heading north, I looked towards the microbrands.
Timefactors is arguably the first microbrand as we think of them now. Their first watch in 2001 was the PRS-1 Speedbird and their second, the Dreadnought spawned many, many dive watch microbrands.
This PRS-25 gilt Everest from Timefactors is probably the most versatile watch in my collection. The high beat 4hz Miyota has been incredibly accurate. 100m water resistant with sapphire crystal and Anti-magnetic soft iron movement cover, it's a GADA watch. To my eyes, it looks good on the standard bracelet, feels better on the jubilee bracelet, looks great on leather or NATO. I've always fancied a Rolex 1016 but will never own one. This gives me that 1016 look and feel without the outlay and then the certain fear that I'd break or lose the thing.
Tunokies seiko nut. But not exclusively. It started with Seiko and I'm partial to vintage but I like most brands.
I tried to get the jubilee last time it was offered but it was gone by the time I got to the checkout screen. Better luck next time I suppose lol.. but yeah, I love mine too 🙌🏾🙌🏾
If you ever decide to let it go please look me up
I managed to snag the Silver Jubilee version, but kinda wish I had gotten the gilt dial instead. Oh well, I suppose there’s always next year!
Do you guys know if any other jubilee bracelets will fit the prs-25 Everest?
It’s a beautiful watch. I bought it for my dad as a surprise gift.
looking nice 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I really wanted one of these! A few months ago I finally managed to order but unfortunately my watch was stolen from the package en route :(

The Geckota jubilee sold by Watch Gecko will fit it nicely. You need to buy the end links separately though.
They're nice looking watches and I've owned a few but they never seem to stick around. I think the farcical ordering and horror stories about customer service have turned me off.

Not sure but I think someone said they'd put one from watchgecko on. You'll have to do some more googling to be sure. Just seen @Just_a_watch_fan beat me to it.

Oh that's crap. Hope you got your money back

Thanks! I will check this out because I haven't seen those jubilees yet.

Haha! Thanks for the help. I'll look into it.

I wish they would do another run of the aventurine dial 😭
