Hysek Abyss Explorer

[Yannou]

Got it today

What I have to say (and I'm not new here..) that it's an amazing watch...what a bunch of metal...my god it's a monster

The watch have so much details and complicated parts (look at this strap....really original)

It's not for the kids IMO...

I got it from Connie as usual...great transaction, smooth and speed...

For setting the date, I have to use the pusher at 10..Don't know if it's normal but I didn't get it via the crown...

For the height...you see what I mean...on rubber and not on a SS bracelet....

And a good advice (for all the new received watch), check all the screws before wearing it...


Here are some pics :

And you know what I'm sure that nobody knows this brand...

They come as a rep? Cool! Expensive?

 

[Yannou]

The former version was really expensive over 500 bucks but this one is now around 350 bucks which is more acceptable IMO

really nice! i am in love with Hysek ever since i saw a gen of these a few years ago.

my local watch guy told me actually yesterday that he will have some of these badboys with mechanical movements (i have an aversion against quartz) by today.

I might join the Hysek club tonight!

The only issue I have is that I cannot set the date with the crown....

And the poor lume

Very cool and unusual watch!

From the pics it really feels like a quality watch, with a lot of interesting details.

Sure is Wiz, another on the list :facepalm:

Weird but sweet and very original.

Very cool, sporty timepiece. I said it once (AP MH) and I"ll say it again...Yan, you are killing me !! Wear it well

 

[Yannou]

Not easy to wear but really original...weird...maybe...
I have to reduce the length of the strap to fit better on my wirst
Don't forget to check all the screw with an allen key...

Got mine today, it's really cool. For sure my nicest of 30+ watches I own today.

The part that amazes me is that they would spend the time to replicate a watch that is so detailed and yet will likely not sell very well. It fits me well, albeit a bit tight at the closest setting.

I hadnt noticed the details in the dial before this post. Very nice - my wrist could definitely support this hunk of steel.

I ain't a very big modern watch person normally, but this thing is bad ass >.>

 

[StevenLee]

Wow they updated the dial pattern . Really looks 98% gen
Only tell sign is gen have hysek work below the date
I really think this watch looks much more aggressive than the
Ap diver , as I have both

Stumbled across this thread and was happy to hear reps exist. I have been seeing it for years in Watchtime magazine and having got over my fear of big watches I pulled the trigger on one today.

Awaiting QC pics from Lucy.

Please, post a mini review and lots of pics! It would be most honorable of you as a member.
Thanks!

Very heavy package on my desk today when I got back from lunch.

If a Rolex Deepsea or an AP Diver is “Iron Man†this watch is "War machine" on your wrist.

Might be a a little large on my 7" wrist but it does not look stupid.

My friend has a Bulova Precisionist and I cannot pull off that watch yet this one wears better on me. Very thick and beefy.

The most bizarre deployant I have ever seen. Part clasp, part 60's GM Seat-belt buckle.

A little "pinchy" on the wrist but nothing serious. I wear my AP Diver on the last hole (tightest setting) this one is about the middle. The rubber keeper on the strap is very odd in the fact it holds the (pointed / blade) end of the strap underneath the other side of the strap (between it and the wrist) Never seen an arrangement like this before.

Quality quite good on quick inspection. Very novel piece. I'll post some detailed shots and go into a little greater detail after I've had a chance to live with it for a few days.

Will do a review after I've been living with it for a few days.
