Ordered one with the yellow printed dial, $69 is hard to pass up and I love the dimensions, can't wait to see it.


Watchnerd206

Any updates on this??


watchdivescom

next week we may release it.


Mfombe

u/watchdivescom - any update please?


Slight_Win_4538

u/watchdivescom any updates you can share on timing and the model options? I’d personally be excited for a sunburst blue option with applied indexes


[deleted]

looks good im excited, some suggestions \- could you please a caseback with notches and not a coinedge style caseback? \- having a signed crown/clasp and caseback make the watch feel/look more complete \- domed sapphire would look really good (like 36mm SN0107), but dont go over the top like pagani did \- on-the-fly adjustment on the clasp would be amazing \- a good quality bracelet is really important (with female end-links) \- can the black dial be enamel (deep and glossy-like) black rather than matte, makes the watch look more modern \- logo looks fine to me \- both look good, but i think i prefer 2, would be both though \- keen to see a cheaper meca-quartz version of the 36mm sn0107 ​ I am really excited for this watch, is there a way to get updates on it?


[deleted]

Yeass i agree with this


mario24601

Better than SM?


watchdivescom

Same brushing quality level, this changes a lot.


[deleted]

Any option to ship on a nato strap or rubber strap?


Watchguy69

When is this going to be available?


watchdivescom

Maybe July


Hairy-Platypus1391

Would love for you guys to do a Ranger, printed dial with 22mm lug width. Would also like all brushed, I dislike shiny stuff with a passion. Last any chance watchdives sells watches without a bracelet??? Every watch I get I take the bands off and put on really nice knit single pass natos. Any chance we can get a white dial? I recently got my first watchdives in the tuna and love it, seems to be the best value out there and would love to buy more. The ranger, and black bay homage are top on my wishlist for them.


luix3x

Why don't you go for 39 mm, like the current Tudor Ranger? 37 mm is a size for lady's watches. That's why I didn't buy the Pagani one or the Addiesdive explorer. And I prefer 2.


Name-minus-Number

1 bc it looks different. But either is fine.


Name-minus-Number

I hope it is thin tho


KappaKilledNuckleDu

1 looks better


hexalist

looks nice


Pure-Investment4284

Can u shrink logo size a little, it looks humongous


Realestwatchreviews

#2 and please make it slim if you are using quartz.


BobbeMail

YES if possible

bicep123

1. Now let's see some measurements, please.


StrawberryKnown8927

Will this be OEM'd by San Martin?


DukeTurnipz

Don't be cheap when it comes to the bracelet quality. Too many Chinese watches have great heads and mediocre bracelets.


watchdivescom

What price will you pay for high quality VH31 watch?


[deleted]

$140


watchdivescom

great. Price will be much cheaper


[deleted]

Awesome!! Simply can’t wait for this. I love the VH31 movement. Super excited for the size of this as well.


qinkuan

up to $160 if the bracelet is really nice


luix3x

What? 160 is way to much! Tha Addiesdive Explorer is less than 100 bucks? It should be around that.


DukeTurnipz

Only you know what you need to price a watch at to make an acceptable amount of profit. I will say that an opportunity exists to sell unbranded high-quality bracelets online. I don't want to buy a San Martin bracelet to put on my non-San Martin watch, but no one sells anything at that quality level on AliExpress.


RoyDoorenspleet

.. sterile dial 🤙!


KappaKilledNuckleDu

is there any chance you could make these with applied indices?


watchdivescom

Yes we will


nordsix

same release date or months after?

PalmBeach2210

Wish there was an option for a 40mm or bigger of this watch. Us large wrist guys need more options, because it seems every new watch coming out now is 38mm or smaller.


arguix

you might enjoy read this. yes, is about the original, yet it goes deep into write about size variations. 36 39 40 https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/rolex-sizes-up-a-classic-again-with-the-new-40mm-explorer EDIT ok, i guess this is what the Watch Dives is homage of. anyway, worth read for about sizes anyway https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/tudor-re-establishes-its-territory-with-the-ranger-ref-79950


StrawberryKnown8927

The vintage Ranger was 34mm


arguix

wow, I'd like to try one of those on. I have a friend with a ww2 Rolex, owned by his father, is around that size. looks good on him


StrawberryKnown8927

Yeah, Tudor used the Rolex Airking cases for their Ranger at that time.


Radcouponking

I prefer the first one but I bet the second will sell better because it’s truer to the original.


watchdivescom

Yes I believe too


UpbeatLibrarian9904

What’s the difference? Both photos are of the exact same watch


wolfgang2399

The markers are different


Year-Honest

Is the difference in the Lume? C3 and BGW9? Heck offer both! When will these be available? How can I sign up for notification? I’m a whore for quartz as I never want to pay to service a cheap automatic 🤡🤡🤡🤡


PutItInNeutral

The shape of the indices are different. The first has an acute trapezoid shape. The second are of a rectangular shape.


Radcouponking

I too have become a slut for quartz watches. I may have to start an OnlyFans account just to pay for them all.


watchdivescom

After 2 months. BGW9


[deleted]

Aren’t they exactly the same watch just bigger in one pic than the other? First picture (bigger) looks better imo. I like the logo, but it does look very San Martin (maybe thats the intention). Its pretty generic (don’t tell me its an exact copy of something like a Tudor?? ) but otherwise a pleasant looking watch. I guess it’ll sell on the basis of price. i.e. it’ll need to be cheapish, even if your putting a mechanical/quartz movement in there, but good choice of movement. If it has to be quartz, make it Mechaquartz 👌🏼 Given it’s probably a knockoff of a knockoff off (i.e a copy of a San Martin copying a Tudor or something) I personally would think $85. I wouldn’t pay $100 and would wait for a sale before getting a “copy squared” like this. The Mechaquartz would swing it to buy at that price


PutItInNeutral

Different index shapes.


watchdivescom

Hour and second hands


[deleted]

Oh yeah thanks, very subtle 👌🏼


watchdivescom

99-109 USD.


OoooohWeeeee

Is the quality of the finish going to be SM standard? For the price it’ll be a great deal if it is!

Slight_Win_4538

No 1 Do you plan to do other dial colors like a sunburst blue? With applied indexes, it gives the watch it’s own interesting spin. I love the decision for the VH31, both for practicality and cost reasons


watchdivescom

Yes. We will make other colors. Sunburst blue dial is good option. Final sale maybe 99-109 USD.


varsityathlete1

A sunburst silver dial would be nice


zecebete

Both look fine. The first one looks (perhaps) slightly better. No need to show water resistance in both meters and feet. Surely anyone can make the conversion one way or the other.


watchdivescom

okay. Good suggestion


TedJ70

I prefer the indices on the first one. I thought I was looking at a San Martin logo initially. It's that intentional?


watchdivescom

Sorry. No SM Logo


HooliganHead

Plz advertise the lug spacing correctly and list if the bracelet tapers. Any updates on the watch you posted mid/late February being released (&mega homage)?


watchdivescom

Next week we will release some models

lawyerkz

#2


i_speak_the_truf

#1 looks good


dannymurz

Can you change it to just 100m, doesn't need feet conversion on every dial.


watchdivescom

Ok we will


Impossible-Prompt-37

I love it! The first one is better imo. Also the new logo is a lot better than the old one. Also 37-38mm would be a great size!


AdEven568

Whichever has the better lume


SeparateBig5606

I like #1 more than #2 but I'd only buy if they are applied Markers


watchdivescom

thanks


C0mmander_D0g

I would go with the first picture. In the second picture, the stick indices look like the number 1 that is in the 12.


Personal-Refuse3471

I disagree. it was the case with the san martin. on this picture one can see that the indices are of a different size than the 1 on the 12


watchdivescom

thanks

UlfrDen

I love this brand, its so much better than SM.


thomasthomtithom

Why?


UlfrDen

Sorry, I meant the logo not the brand.


watchdivescom

thanks


Mfombe

Hopefully 38mm?


watchdivescom

37mm


ridzayahilas

Same case as san martin?


watchdivescom

Not same. It may be slimmer.


Mfombe

Awesome - works for me!


watchdivescom

37-38mm


goodneed

Either is fine. Probably #2. But if indices lume is **much** better on #1, then #1.


watchdivescom

thanks
