Incoming 15450 fantasy model.



I am looking for feedback on that please. I had an old modded JF TT white dial which I should never have sold. I was thinking about picking up one of these. I will probably be annoying you with loads of questions on this one when it arrives.

As soon as I receive it, tentatively scheduled for an Oct 20 delivery, I'll provide more pictures as well as my impression of the watch.

That's actually pretty nice. The rhodium and the grape were two NWBIG from the old days, I was lucky to find one M2M, since they're beautiful watches and I don't really like the new model with the double indices.

Will do. I understand that there is an avid interest in the 37mm RO chronograph, which interest me as well. None of our Trusted Dealers has this particular watch so I started looking for a DHGate alternative, I used DHgate's search engine and found this model from DHGate seller timeop.

According to the information he provided, the watch has a diameter of approximately 37 mm. and a thickness of approximately 12mm. The watch uses a VK quartz movement and the watch sell for about $110.00. Any opinions of the seller and the watch shown would be appreciated.

Unfortunately I do not know the seller. The VK Quartz watches are rock solid. I have loads of them. I only have ROOs though so I do not know how well made the RO Chrono is. The build quality of the ROOs are excellent.

My DHGate 15450 arrived. I think the sunburst is okay. At least it dos not have a matte finish.



The DG-2813 will not be mistaken for a Cal. 3120. The good thing is they're both low beat movements.

The diameter is close to the gen's 37mm.

The thickness is good enough IMO. The gen is 9.8mm
I was really looking forward to your thoughts on that one. I miss my JF 15400 which I had thinned to 10mm. I am really tempted to pick one of these up because I miss the 15400 TT so much. The 15450 gets lost on my wrist but I am assuming because the 15400 has a 2813 as well it is also 12mm. I have a few 2813 all gold 15400s and they are actually pretty good.
