Bought the bluesy from Nikz. The watch is a stunner! Absolutely love it. The gold plating is outstanding. The crystal and dw are gen. It is the most beautiful watch that I own :) but after the first day of use there already is a dent on one of the lugs. So unlucky :(
I surely will come back for more from Nikz!

that dent on the top right? damn that sucks... but in hindsight you started to give it character right away 😅 did you use it much in 2023? how's the plating now? ✌️

Yeah, that dent really sucks. But you cannot see it on the wrist, its only visible on these pics :)
Sadly, the bezel is broken at the 50 mark. Nikz told me that he will change it. I must contact him.
Overall I am very happy with this watch. It is absolutely georgeus. The gold plating looks like new (y)

Very nice! Im 37 but Im waiting for it like a 8 year old for his christmas present :D

Since everyone keeps calling it cheddar cheese yellow watch, I will also plate it before summer 2024, and we will nickname it "Bumblebee" like it deserves, enjoy it

it's a beauty! these watches look identical. can you tell me who Nikz is and does this watch come with an Asian movement?
a link to the website where you bought it is helpful.

thanks,
Vina

Just a little update. Nikz said that he will replace the broken bezel since it was broken from the beginning. But there is absolutely no contact with Nikz. So I will try to change the bezel on my own. A bit dissapointing to be honest.
However, overall the watch is still a beauty.

Nik was a trusted watchsmith here. He did really good work. But unfortunately lot of issues in the last months, hope he will be back soon
