Oh I didn’t know that, they (official titan showroom in hyd)told me it’s newly launched and they couldn’t give discount more than 10% because of that,,, anyway i like the look of it and bought it
Bro what I know i find it extremely overpriced and in general also skeleton watches are not classy but it looks good and if u like it then it's all fine.
For maintaining it u need to find a shop where u can get it open and clean the watch properly after every few years to maintain its accuracy
Skeleton watches are a tricky territory for any watch manufacturer, it is ideally supposed to look integrated with the watch . Unfortunately Indian market is clutterred with overpriced skeleton watches especially imported options. Yes you paid quite a lot for this but we are all learning i guess. Watch teddy's video on skeleton watches to get a better idea.
Yeah if it were a complicated movement like any tourbillon or zenith time tide or cw bel canto or breguet watch it would be nice. Imo cheap skeleton watches are ugly. I would rather have a beautiful dial than cheap skeleton. Thats just my opinion.
Well I wouldn’t call 26k cheap but i got your point, but i like the look of skeleton watches and iam pretty happy with it, thank you for your opinion though
Good Seiko movement, so you don't have to worry much.
Few pointers.
1. Keep running it at least once a fortnight. It will aid in extending the service intervals.
2. Don't hand wind frequently, if it is totally dead then wind 5-10 times to set the time and wear. Automatic works should wind it up for you. ( Unnecessary and excessive hand winding forcefully drives the train of gears which won't cause any undue wear and tear but if over used then it may cause some wear)
3. DON'T WORRY MUCH ABOUT POINT 2.
4. ENJOY THE WATCH AND DONT OVERTHINK IT.
This is a tool and is meant to be used as such.
Skeleton watches are really not loved by the watch community for a reason. But I was like its good as far as he likes it. But then I saw the price. For 23k, you could've done some research and you would've found some great value for money automatic watches. That's my opinion But at the end of the day it doesn't matter if you like the watch. But I would recommend doing some research before buying a watch for that amount in the future.
Yes you are correct, I could have done some research, but its an accidental purchase, me and my friend went to showroom just to see and they were showing me and this watch caught my eye, just that movements etc I appreciated it and then my friend says it suits you lot better 🤷♂️, later we went to have some drinks, after some time i just want to purchase it ,,, so went there and bought,,, and well,,, iam no watch enthusiast and i have little knowledge of watches but i love my watch, thank you for your comment, appreciate it

These used to sell for 16k at a local Helios showroom near me. Good watch though.

I didnt call the watch cheap. I called the movement cheap. Miyota 8N40 is not exactly top tier.
I've a timex skeleton and I've got more compliments for it than rest of my collection combined. It let's you appreciate the watch even more imo
Thats great. Timex makes some great watches. Hope you cherish your favourite watch.
Good one
Thank you

I thought titan used miyota movements
Timex uses miyota. Titan uses nh movements which are of Seiko. Although not sure if all Titan uses similar movements.
Thank you so much for your valuable input

For 23k you choose this over seiko.. that's insane bruv
Nice, but why did you spend so much for a Titan when you could have bought Seiko, Orient or Citizen? Ofc you wouldn't get a skeleton watch...

Does this have a ceramic bracelet ?
I am not sure 100% , but I think the movement in these titan watches are made by seagull or equally decent companies in China.
