Yours from dhgate? The one here by OP I ended owning for awhile (of course ) and it was beautiful. I just at the time didn’t have a need for a gold dress watch.

Oh it crapped out after 11 hours. I forgot to update. Wound it again, gave it a shake, roughly same result.

No. $70 rep has 11 hour auto-reserve when not on wrist. I was just testing it.

You wind it and shake it. It’s both.

I’m wondering how is overall quality of mk 1815

 

[rcom440]

Still can't understand why the keep getting the logo so wrong, the letter spacing is terrible (look at the SOH), and this seems to be on all the new ones that are at least getting the dimensions correct, how hard is it to get a logo from the web instead of trying to redo it...

(sorry to point it out, don't mean to threadcrap, but Ive been after a Saxonia etc for ages)

Logo is not necessarily inaccurate, there are some variations to their logos.

Check this video and logo behind CEO of AL&S.

Hello, Major, do you still have this rep and happen to be able to confirm the thickness and diameter?
I am about to pull the trigger on this watch and would appreciate your input. Thank you
