First review on my first titanium watch

After kinda long thinking i give a shot to buy this watch online from my usual place, but because the watch is not available at the store but its on their warehouse at difference city i bought it through their website on saturday

I was going in blind when buying these because i never see it, never touch it, only heard tell tale about titanium watches is light etc, so i only hoping for the best

And today it is arrive...

Arrived in this white and plain box, without marking of what model it contents and bubble wraps

Inside the box, there is the watch, the guarantee card and manual in qr code form

I put out the watch from the box and very very surprised when i lift it...

IS THIS WATCH REALLY AN ALLOY METAL WATCH?

WHY SO LIGHT, LIGHTER THAN MY STAINLESS SWATCH ALMOST LIKE PLASTIC WATCH... H.O.W.

Even when i lift it, it feels like the weight is coming from the leather strap which is for me not a good quality strap, too thick, too stiff, but it makes the field watch feeling strong

When i wear it, its like wearing a leather bracelet, feel weightless, feels like not wearing a watch at all even though this girl is not a small watch with 42mm diameter

The second hand also great, with hitting marks almost every time

Even thought its quartz, it doesn't have a loaud ticking noise coming from it like on my several swatch and cheap 3 hands casio

Overall i'm very surprised with how light is this and looking forward to enjoy this watch, hopefully its gonna have wrist time more than my orient

  • Eco drive, so it doesn't need to change battery often
  • Very light, the strao feels heavier than the body
  • Day date window
  • Second hand hitting marks
  • Sapphire crystal
  • Lume kinda meh
  • The leather strap not really good, feels too thick
  • No screw crown
  • Crown too far from body prone to be damaged easily

I've rarely encountered a leather strap that was comfortable out of the box.

Leather needs to break in.

in the past i had Orient Defender 2 that also use leather strap and this one in my opinion not as comfortable as what orient use, orient leather strap is thinner than this
