Great service so far. Just gave the GL for this.

Super choice for the wife!

The watch arrived 2 days ago. Forwarded straight to fellow member for waterproofing.

I haven't inspected it, yet, so I'll comment on the actual watch when it's returned.

Happy with Mr Wang's service, and the clarity/quality of QC images and videos is excellent.

I would buy from @CTime again with confidence.

I just ordered one from CTime as well. I am wondering about the waterproofing. Is it mandatory?

Not mandatory, but I personally wouldn't submerge a watch unless it's been pressure tested and I know it'll stay dry. I don't believe this specific watch has been tested.

Ctime does provide the water test for $1!
If it hasn’t shipped this is something id ask to get done

Thanks, I did see this on their site. Unfortunately this offer came up after mine was shipped. I think it was literally 1-2 days after.

Overall, I'm impressed by the quality and finish of this Clean OP36.
The movement winds very smoothly and is healthy according to the Timegrapher.
Crown and tube thread feel is decent. Bracelet feels good, and the claps feel solid and opens/closes nicely.
It definitely doesn't feel like a cheap, flimsy watch in my hand.
My wife is very good at road testing things; we'll know in a month or two just how well built this watch and the movement is!

Hi, are you still happy of the purchase?

I am. The case back threads a little rough, as does the crown and tube, so a bit of a clean was required, but otherwise all good. Movement has settled in nicely and seems healthy.

My wife LOVES it.

This close, except the one I bought is the 36.
