Heimdallr 44mm Stainless Steel Mens Automatic Watch, Sapphire Crystal NH35A Movement Dive Watch Luminous C3, 200 Meter Water Resistant

Good looking, fits well, tough, waterproof. Keeps time well

Absolute quality regardless where you look at it. How is it so cheap compared to the seiko idk. It does punch WAAAAY above its weight. Easy to resize, lumes are way better than orient, luminox and I would put them up there with seiko or citizen.

If you do not already know, this watch is an homage to the Seiko 6105. There are several of these "Captain Willard" tributes out there, and I have purchased many of them: the Steeldive1970, the Addiesdive diver, WatchDive's 6105, Detroit Mint's Caretta. Seiko, too, has its own homage to the 6105; it's the Seiko SPB151. But Seiko's version costs about 6-10 times as much as these watches. (And the consensus seems to be that what you get is not commensurate to that price point.) So, I decided to check out these mostly Chinese watches instead. There are plenty of reviews online, and many of them argue that these watches are all identical, minus the branding. Not true. While they do share the same NH35 movement, there are plenty of differences: for instance, they have different weights (I found the Watchdives to be heavier); and the crown guards are definitely different (the crown guards for the Watchdives diver and Steeldive1970 do not have sharp edges, but they do have corners which dug into the back of my hand); similarly, the casebacks vary (some are high and others are low-profile; the etching of the Addiesdive grated my wrist); and the lume differs greatly (the Detroit Mint Caretta lume was mediocre at best). Some of the crowns protrude, others are flush with the guards. You get the idea. At the risk of sounding like Goldilocks, the Heimdallr was the perfect fit for my 6.75" wrist. It has weight, but on the wrist I forget I am wearing it. The crown guards are rounded on the underside, so nothing digs into your hand. The caseback is low-profile, so it sits flush on the wrist. The lume is not Seiko lume, but it is pretty darn good. I purchased the version that comes with the rubber waffle strap, which was fine. But I got a better fit with an Uncle Seiko Waffle with fat boy spring bars and small tips. I’ve since put it on a Miltat Waffle, and … it is perfect. (Yeah, maybe I am like Goldilocks.) To be fair, I should say that I was impressed with all of these watches, which invariably looked better in person than they did in the photographs. Ultimately, however, I kept the Heimdallr and sent the others back. It's keeping great time: +\- 5 seconds per day. Hope this is helpful for anyone on the fence.

As always, arrived from Amazon in a couple of days. Fantastic service. A better Willard than a Willard, and in Black PVD. This is a stunning watch. The hands are much better, larger and wider than the standard Willard hands, suit the watch very well. I'd like to see these same hands in stainless steel used in a version of the normal Willard. Heimdallr got it right on the Sapphire Crystal with an ever so slight curve. Lume is fantastic, Bezel & indices all align, Watch keeping good time at 3secs+ a day. The watch is listed as "Tactical Frog" - I'd like to suggest more Tactical Frog watches be made available via Amazon, especially the Tactical Frog FXD Titanium. Amazon are always much better at service, delivery and resolving any issues if they crop up so if stores want to sell more watches, put them on Amazon, and SOON!

Watch look nice but the quality is crapy. First the dial got a touch up paint on it. The lume is bad. The watch is not even water resistant. I blow on the glass and already jave humidity under the glass. For the price it cost go get you a citizen or a micro brand watch.
