Good review. I've been wearing a quartz Hulk homage (Reginald) for four years and just love the look, feel and utility. Mineral crystals are very hardy, not a scratch on it. Strangely enough, I've never gotten comment on it, positive or negative. Canadians don't seem to care :)

Just got my automatic version today! It's absolutely beautiful! This is my 2nd olevs watch and it's going right in the winder case next to the other.

I was browsing around Olevs watches, and this video really helped me out; I'm planning to get this one. Thanks for the help, Rosset Bespoke Butlers. Cheers!

I bought a “gold” Olevs watch 2 years ago. I still wear it nearly everyday. The color still looks good on the outside, no scratches on the face. It did start fading on the inside of the wristband. Unfortunately it stopped ticking about a month ago thanks to a magnetic field. I’m in school for NDI and was doing one of my Magnetic Particle labs. I was using a handheld magnetic field generating Yoke. I got my watch too close to the magnetic field and it started going backwards. I hurried and let go of the button but the damage was done. It just held still no batter how much I tried winding it, it wouldn’t move. It was a good watch for quite a while and went through a lot of wear and tear but always held up and did it’s job. Definitely got a lot of looks and compliments and many people who were amazed about the quality of the watch when I told them it wasn’t a real Rolex. Bought myself 2 more just recently for $10/piece on Temu. Hope they’re just as good quality as the Amazon one I had. Highly recommend Olevs for anyone who wants but can’t afford a Rolex style watch.

I guess the perfect watch for a scientist is the Rolex Milgauss which can theoretically withstand magnetic fields of up to 1,000 Gauss. But obviously the price is something else!!

I like to see this positive review. I bought a very sophisticated-looking George Beene watch from a thrift shop for $16. It wasn't until I got home that I realized that all 3 of the internal dials were fake and served no purpose but aesthetics. It bothered me because they could have kept those 3 gold circles on there for looks, but omitted the hands and numbers so that the piece would seem more honest. But they looked like real dials with real hands and real numbers and they didn't do anything. They were just there to LOOK like an expensive watch. Out of frustration, I looked for watches that have working inner dials, and now I have an Olevs G9947 with a black face, and a gold and silver metal link band. It has 4 inner dials. 3 of them work: stopwatch seconds, stopwatch minutes, and a 24-hour timer with day and night indicator. However, the top inner dial really annoys me. It looks like a spring for a tourbillon, but this dial doesn't move at all. In my opinion, they shouldn't have put that there if it wasn't going to move. It would have been a more honest design if they just omitted the tourbillon sping dial and just left it out. Plus, the whole point of a tourbillon watch is to watch that tourbillon and its spring in constant motion. This top inner dial is a spiral that looks like a spring, but it is just static and does nothing but annoys people who understand what that is supposed to represent and what it WOULD be doing if it were an actual functional part of the watch. But, it is a beautiful and sophisticated watch. It has a lot of functionality and it's really fun to watch the stopwatch reset once you've had it running for a few minutes.

How good is it? Im planning to buy one, $50 for Automatic movement is insane.

I own both a blue and green Olevs submariner style watches that I paid around $40 USD each for them. In the 6-9 months I've had them I've put them through all types things without a second thought of the damage they may suffer and both have survived, sustained no damage, and still keep perfect time. IMO that's the main reason for owning a watch, to tell time, not to be some sort of status symbol, or impress anyone. Even if I could afford to purchase Rolex or other highly expensive brand watch I wouldn't simple wouldn't feel comfortable wearing it, and because there are so many more things I can think of where that money would be of better use. Thank you for a well done review, and demonstrating that a more expensive watch does not necessarily mean a better watch, especially for the everyday man.

Just to add to my last comment if i won the lottery i couldnt live with myself wearing a watch that could home 50 people either sounds like your a bit like me in that way

The days have long passed where Chinese anything could always be considered junk. The watch industry in China has come a long way and today it's possible to buy watches for less than $50 that are exceedingly well made and which will last a very long time. Pricing has become more of a marketing game than a real reflection on worth. For example, I have over a dozen Olev quartz watches all of which seem to be well made, well finished and all of which keep excellent time. None of them cost me more than $35 Canadian and this has allowed me to grow a watch collection which gives me a lot of pleasure when each morning I get to chose the watch of the day. Frankly, if I was one of the major name brands, i would be worried about this type of competition. Frankly, the only thing that in the future will ensure their survival is the ability to continue to appeal to snobbery on name brand, and goodness knows there are a lot of people like that

@RossetBespokeButlers

8 ай бұрын

I agree with you 100%

OY! This is a BEAUTY!!! Now I need to see, if they make anything a wee bit more water-resistant. I was VERY sceptical about Olevs, because their Amazon images are often obvious CGI fakes, not real photos. Surprise, surprise, you do not appear to have any special lighting, yet the colour and the glittery finish just totally POP like in the catalogue images. It really draws attention in just about any setting! The watch works, and does what a watch is supposed to do, and being quartz, I think we can believe your right on the second claim for one month so far :) The only question remaining, is how long the calibre will last. As long as it is NOT stuffed with a Miyota (personally suffered HIGH failure rate with Citizen, while all of my Seiko/TMI calibre watches take a kicking and keep on beating), chances are good it will survive 10 years or more, and if it does 10 years, it is probably good to good on-board a new Voyager expedition OH, if the calibre too is really Chinese quartz, I trust that more than Miyota and any Swiss quartz, no jokes here!

Exactly, most people can't afford a Rolex. Even some people who buy them can't afford them much better to get an inexpensive watch that looks similar and realistically does the same thing.

in my experience the japanese homage rolex homages are head and shoulders above any chinese homage in quality and reliability every chinese homage ibrand ive had has had issues while i know the japanese make their watches in china they hold their brands to a much higher standard than the chinese do

I agree, Japan has some absolutely brilliant watch brands in some ways even better than Swiss. The Chinese ones are not to that level yet. I do think that within the next 10 years Chinese brands will get there. At the moment they are cheaper than Japanese equivalents so that is good for anyone without much money to spend.

Far from being a millionaire, I own three Olevs watches. Great brand

@@RossetBespokeButlers In all honesty, I am a fan of the 'minimalistic' look, classic clock face with a leather or leather look strap. Of course, even a great minimalistic watch isn't necessarily a minimalistic price. But that's what's so great about Olevs, they do a variety of great looking watches for around the £40 mark.

I bought an ole s looked real nice fake diamonds in the face, face was blues and silver real nice looking, but 4 months on and the battery literally fried inside the watch I cleaned out all the burnt area out a new battery in and it does not wish to work, kept the bracelet and threw the watch absolutely crap.

haha I gotten one too and see if anyone giving any questions about the watch im going too tell them someone that won the lottery and they bought me a Rolex watch for my birthday

Brilliant!

Get a Tisell they are copies and not fake.

I like it. I didn’t buy it because it looks like a Rolex 😅 I bought it because it was cheap. 😊

A very good reason!

Some case of this watch is alloy not stainless steel.

think of it this way: for $30 usd you are never going to get the performance snd durability of a $15,000 swiss rolex sub but its more like a " prop" watch for show and decorative purposes this watch im sure has glitches and is far from perfect and it wont be, how can u expect that from a $30 homage? its impossible but give them credit where credit is due who else could actually do this?

The lum on mine is also a bit weak. If it has been in loads of sun it works ok but that doesn't often happen here in Scotland 😁

Good video, unfortunately I'm still not convinced. Not the fact that it's an affordable watch. As a matter of fact I have an Aragon Dive Master 4 EVO which is only $160 USD. What gives me pause is the bracelet and crystal. In comparison to the automatic version, mine has solid end links, sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel, milled deployant clasp. It just doesn't add up in value. Also like you it would feel like I'm a fraud.

Thank you for your message. I just looked up Divemaster 4 EVO it looks really good. Hopefully I will be able to review one at some point!

Had both….never want another Rolex….too expensive to repair…

Very true the servicing cost of a Rolex is something people often overlook when they are thinking about the cost

The video was good but you have to work with the audio. After a while it becomes unbearable to hear your voice in only one ear (left ear).

Thank you for your feedback. That is really interesting I do not know why it is not in stereo I have not tried listening to it with earphones.

Even if you made an exact copy of a Rolex even made by Rolex on the sly by a Rolex employee if it didn't have the right serial number on it people would trash it just because the serial number don't compute that's how fickle human beings are these days !

So true. Actually I have seen exactly this. A friend of mine has an exact replica of a Rolex. He was showing ot to someone and they were saying how beautiful the workmanship was. He then told them it was not a real Rolex and suddenly they started to notice 'flaws' in it and started saying it was "obviously not as good as a real one" even though 2 mins before they had been saying how amazing it was! It is all about perception.

They know the price of everything and the value of nothing….Oscar Wilde. You need to stress test both. Hard.

Very true

I bought the black with gold numerals and the gold numerals came off when removing the "protective" plastic. Very cheap, lightweight POS watch. It's like a child's watch, except the edges of the bracelet are so sharp, you would never left a child handle it.

Yeah, still never

Mate i don't understand people that have real rolexes on that attract thieves when these days you can buy a supercolne that even a jeweller would have to take the back off to tell the difference if you got a real one buy a super clone and leave the real one at home not getting a scratch on it thats common sense to me 😂

Here is the real question about this $50.00 watch and the modern technology that brought it to you at such a good price. Has modern technology made a watch that can compete with a Rolex for a fraction of the cost? The Japanese quarts movement is a technological quantum leap ahead of the beat Rolex Mechanical movment. CNC machining techniques and mass production can make this watch out of stainless steal for next to nothing. In essence has modern technology and manufacturing techniques made a Rolex Submariner a technological dinosaur? Is the only real appeal of a Rolex it's Status symbol status?

The OLEVS is not as good as a Rolex it is not as well made and will probably not last long enough to be passed down from father to son for generations. But obviously for the price it still represents a really good bargain. You could literally buy an OLEVS every month and it would still be cheaper! The biggest part of the price of a Rolex is simply that it is a Rolex. Even if we ignore the Chinese and Japanese brands, there are other cheaper alternatives. For example a Tudor, TAG or an Omega is every bit as well made as a Rolex but much much cheaper. I know the Rolex fan-boys will disagree but it is the truth.
