Outstanding Diver Watch
The Neymar 1000m is an outstanding saturation diver watch. The movement, bezel, crown, crystal, and case are all perfectly designed and engineered with no obvious QC issues. The dial is clean and legible even in very dark water. The colors of the dial (black, green, blue) are vibrant and aside from the thickness of the case can be worn with a dressed up outfit. It’s not an homage watch, it’s an original design with design elements borrowed (e.g., the Mercedes hand). The escape valve is automatic for those saturation diving. For its price this is one of the best deep water diver value out there. The built is tank-like, this watch can take a lot of abuse. It’s a real tool watch that looks like a dress watch almost. Some divers prefer quartz movements, this is an automatic watch if that matters to you. The bracelet is fine, neither the best nor the worst. The watch looks great on a NATO strap (22mm) despite its heft. You can get three of those, in each available colors, for less than a grand. I believe they make them in two colors as well for those into blink. I haven’t had any water penetration issue and because it’s an automatic movement you never have to open up the case and risk to compromise tte seal. Only the Invicta Grand Diver and some Deep Blue watches offer comparable values but the Invicta is not saturation (300m water rating) and the Deep Blue Alphamarine is only a comparable value when heavily discounted (which it is on occasion on the Deep Blue website). In summary, an outstanding watch and an outstanding value from a Chinese company. The 300m Neymar, an homage to the Tudor Blackbay, is very good as well and not as big for those with smaller wrists. Highly recommended as well.

Started with some great Seiko's and this is my first non-Seiko diver
Recently caught "the watch bug" and have started building a stable of watches about a year ago. Started with some great Seiko's and this is my first non-Seiko diver. Obviously, the look is a big part of this purchase. Very much a Rolex Sea-Dweller vibe to it which is amazingly attractive.The quality seems to be very solid. It is a big and heavy watch, but I'm a 6'2" strapping stud, so it fits me well. Given the specs on this watch for the price and the design, as long as the quality hold up, it's an amazing value. I saw that it had a Seiko automatic movement inside, which gives me peace of mind. If it's anything like my other Seiko movements, this thing will last decades and keep very accurate time. The second hand hacks, you can hand wind it, sapphire crystal, lume is solid (it's blue!) and seems to last longer than most, and has a helium release valve (which will never be used by any of us I suspect....).Couple minor notes: The bezel could be easier to move - it works just fine, but a beefier bezel or a slight hangover on the two of the sides always makes it easier to move. Slight roll-back when it settles, but nothing that makes it feel out of alignment. The band is solid overall. Took out a couple links to make it fit my list well. Wish the clasp had a fold-over lock instead of just the single click-in.Overall: Really nice watch and so far an amazing value for the money. If this baby holds up, makes you wonder why top-end watches can charge $5,000 to $10,000. I suspect you're paying for all the marketing that is probably a few thousand dollars per watch they sell. Nothing against those watches as I do want to own one and something to pass to my son one day, but until it's just the perfect watch, enjoy the Neymar!

Simply stunned Watch enthusiast.
Received this watch this morning, sized it (no removal tool included with mine, but I have the tools so no problems removing 2 links without lube. Just tapped the pins out very carefully and they snapped back in without a problem), and have been wearing it since. Big, heavy, awesomeness if that's your thing. Build quality is quite impressive for the cost. Not a Rolex sea dweller, but pretty dang close! I have had Rolex's (datejust and sub... just too expensive for how easily the floating mechanism breaks, one 18 hole golf session and dead!... A month later you get it back, then have to baby the dang thing) and currently have my revered indestructible Tag link in the safe. Bought this just for a "beat around" and pretty positive it will hold up quite well! Almost don't want to beat it up bc it is quite nice. The seiko movement is a time tested beast and with ZERO flaws on this watch (no symmetry issues on face etc, super bright luminescent), I expect a lifetime of use. Will update after lake days and diving if I have any issues. Swiss quality without the price tag is how I feel right now. A+++Update: 12 hours after initial winding this big girl has gained 4 seconds! Super happy. Means the movement is tip dang top!! Really, I simply cannot believe I paid only $230 for this watch.Update: Gained 1.25 mins in 48 hours. This mechanism is built to last. Tempted to buy a second for when this one goes in ~10 years. Cheaper to buy another than service it! Big guy with a big watch that he doesn't have to worry about bc it's a tank. Truly in love with this big heavy monster. Clearly.

Cheap good looking divers watch
This is a copy of the Rolex Sea-dweller for about 1% of the price, and it doesnt just look good, it has the functionality of a Rolex too. The automatic movement is a cheap Seiko, and perhaps I got lucky with mine, but it is accurate enough to only need to correct the time once a month when changing the date. Water resistant to 1km, for $199? What an achievement. The watch is pretty heavy, so I put it on a silicon strap which looks great and feels a lot lighter. The watch is thick and 44mm wide, but lug to lug it is pretty compact, so you dont need a huge wrist to wear this guy. My wrist is 7.5 inches and I reckon down to 7 inch writ size would still be fine. Lume lasts the whole night. The look of this watch is clean and handsome, I absolutely love it.
