[Wise Adamascus AD810A] The reasons I’m downsizing.
Recently saw a number of reviews online of this watch. Liked it so much I almost immediately bought it and now, if it stacks up the way I think it will, it might be justification for me to *seriously* downsize my collection.
Thailand wouldn’t be my obvious choice when it comes to watches but this might entirely change that.
Anyone else have a Wise that they’d care to share their experiences with?

I have a Wise Hitman with a green dive bezel. From what I can gather, it’s the little brother of the one that you have posted in the picture. The major difference is that the Adamsacus is a bit of a dresser sports watch with a more detailed patterned dial, a steel and movement upgrade.
I really like mine and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this brand to any watch enthusiasts.
My finial coment is that these watches are absolute lume monsters. Probably one of the best lume work examples on the market… especially at this price point.
I’m really enjoying mine!

I had a Wise Adamascus AD9M and didn’t like it or dealing with Wise, at one point I thought I’d either been conned or they’d gone under as they just weren’t responding to me. It seems like my experience was an anomaly as I haven’t found another bad review, but I wouldn’t recommend them.
Have the AD820A coffee brown and Love It!! I have ordered the 904L steel bracelet. Honestly though this fully polish watch looks killer on leather rubber and mesh. My goodness, it’s a stunner.
I have the bronze version. Love it, most accurate mechanical watch I own. Had to wait forever for it... but I'm very happy with it.

Understandable. I love mine... but they were almost 2 months past their shipping date and i thought i might have been conned as well. Turned out well in the end.
The wise ad8 is stunning, I've come so close to buying it so many times (and breaking my 1 watch per brand rule)
Speaking off: my Wise ad7 is just fantastic. Its my perfect watch, and I'd only want the ad8 to compliment it as the ultimate duo
Customer experience has been great. They were super accommodating and delivery was incredibly fast. I'd recommend contacting them on Instagram.
Highly recommended their watches

That Damascus case is stunning. Others have said it’s a little polarising but I guess that’s put me in the love it rather than leave it camp!
When you say delivery was fast, I’ve heard others say it took like 3 months for their watch to arrive (2 months later than expected)…how long did yours take if you don’t mind me asking?

Look at the shine on that baby!

Bummer. I’ll let you know my experience dealing with them. Fingers crossed yours was an anomaly as you said.

I’m quite sure it was, judging by other people’s experience, let us know how it goes.

That’s not bad at all!

I was very pleasantly surprised. Considering it came from Thailand and was under two weeks which was well within their estimated time for arrival I was quite pleased

Got a note to say mine will be here Tuesday next week, so less than 10 days door to door!

Incredible man, enjoy it. I've come very close, only 2 things stopping me is my 1 watch per brand rule and that I don't want to own morenthan 5 watches (smartwatch and spaghetti not counting)
If they made a version with some brushings like the adx it'd be game over for me I'd have to get it
I ordered my AD7 on October 30th and received it in Austria on November 10th. It has been living in it's stunning box ever since until yesterday for my birthday. Wise certainly makes it hard to stick to a 'one watch per brand' rule. The first Wise I became aware of was the Flyboy (I'd love to have one with the Thai numerals), everything I read and hear about the AD8 seems great and in the meantime they have launched the AD7 models which were only available with the Damascus case in a 904L version and they look seriously tempting. If I didn't like my existing collection so much, I'd consider a single-brand collection.
