ali express.................very low quality. canal street quality. I'd much rather buy a lower quality rep from one of our dealers and support them because they can also get the lower quality ones, and you have a much higher degree of service and forum support if something were to go wrong.

I asked my preferred dealer and he said he can't get canal street reps... I'm going to use it to learn on so quality doesn't have to be great. I'm coming from luming $7 eBay watches... Lol so I wanted to try a step above. I pulled the trigger on a black and yellow sea dweller for $100 trusty time has a 21j version for $248 and I'm interested to see what $100 gets me on Ali as our TDs don't seem to enthused about selling junk which I can understand. My understanding is a 2813 isn't the best movement and if the same watch can be had for $100 it would be great! Let's see how my first Ali buy goes... It claims to be an autowinde so I'll see. Let's just hope it doesn't have those folded metal bracelet links! Haha the quality of a $7 eBay watch is terrible. I almost don't like to lume them. The heads are ok for $7 but the bracelet is a total shit box.

My expirement:

$248 version



$100 version


Same markings... If that's the watch I actually get.. If not return! If anything my coworker will buy it he buys anything cheap <$100!

Not bad for $100 nice weight to it. 21j movement I don't believe this watch comes with a better movement. Solid end link bracelet feels very close to my noob exp II bracelet. :)
