$10K for a watch is a big deal for me - which is why I don't own a $10K watch...! 😀

How is this a GMT?

The Addiesdive watches get strong reviews. It was in my shortlist. I was convinced by the accuracy of the RDUNAE, in terms of it's case shape and crown, but it *is* more expensive.

I think the blue leather strap compliments the watch with ruggedness and elegance in equal measure.

The Pepsi bezel is always a winner in my eyes.

This watch has just recently been picked up by my retro radar. I am definitely drawn to it.

In my search for a decent price, I found that there is what appears to be a homage/rip-off available at AliExpress.

The relevant direct link at the moment is:-

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005846743646.html

While I can find a real Seiko model in the UK new for a little less than £200, these copies are priced just under £75.

The AliExpress variant has a sterile dial. Other than that the appearance is uncannily similar.

I wonder, does anyone know anything about these watches? Marry/Shag/Avoid?
