WHY I OFTEN DON'T MENTION OTHER BRANDS IN MY VIDEOS.
You may have noticed that I often don't mention the original brands that watches I am reviewing pay homage to. This is very intentional and not meant to offend you or the original brands. I lost my first channel in October 2020 which I had spent 9 months growing and invested a significant amount of money in simply because I had mentioned the original brands in some of my videos. There are people who try to use KZreads lack of understanding when it comes to the difference between homage watches and fake watches to attack other channels and their owners and sadly I fell foul of this in 2020. This channel was also attacked recently and KZread deleted content simply because I had said 'subby homage' and 'Rolex homage' in two videos despite the watches in the videos being perfectly legal homage watches. Please understand that I can not afford to risk my channel so I will no longer be mentioning other brands when reviewing homage watches.

So pleased to see that you’re reviewing Geckota watches. I’ve owned several over the years and can’t fault the quality.
I have the same watch, I love it. The dial is so dynamic. Geckota makes some fantastic looking watches. It's nice to see this one get a mention.
These are beautiful looking watches. I love what Geckota are doing.
It's a very cool looking watch. My interest in this brand is definitely growing. Thanks Gary!
Loved the brand for a very long time now. They make very good vintage watches and the choice of yours on the red dial is excellent!Though you say it is rather big it looks incredibly comfortable on your wrist.
I like the look of this. It reminds me of the seiko recraft which is also good looking.
Beautiful red fume dial
Lovely, the case is very similar to my spinnaker hull 5059
Nice looking watch but at that price with no bracelet and a simple polished case it should have a better movement, maybe a Miyota 9039.
They make some beautiful watches. I bought a GMT a few years ago, and that has been a winner. Their cases can be a bit bulky though.
I really like the watch. And right in my sweet spot for size but over $400 for an nh35 Can’t justify that
Really surprised by the polished job done on the watch , look really high quality watch for the price. Geckota is on my radar for a while now , hopefully buy a watch in near future. Great video as usual Gary.
I have the aquamarine version… fantastic watch at great value!! Also.. love that there’s no date window!!
The closer you look the more beautiful it gets. The attention to detail is really on point

I agree
The must beautifull mid century dial. This watch are remakable on the design, for space age adicts. the only thing missing is a recording of an iconic 50's design piece like a Eames, or Neutra, or Arnio in a case back. Thanks for the revue.
Nice looking watch
Very nice retro looking watch. It's funny! Seeing the pictures, I also thought it was a small watch. I like the optics of padded straps, but sometimes they feel on wrist like a pair of pliers. But that polished smudge & scratch magnet case back? Who wants that? 🤔
Very good looking
The aquamarine version is brushed on top versus this red dial. It makes the case more balanced IMO, and gives me the option to put it on a 22mm straight end links brushed finished bracelet.
That is lovely!
I love the Watch Gecko channel and their straps selection but I just can't get over that name for a watch brand... Not for me.
I've had that one for years. It looks even better on a shark mesh strap.
Love this watch. Hope it gets given away
It certainly looks great 👌🏼👌🏼😊
Nice
does look amazing on your wrist

It’s beautiful
That’s a beauty but a little on the large size for a dressish type of watch. Thanks for the great review.
Nice recraft look to big for my wrists but I like the looks of it
Super lovely watch for sure. Great looking dial, and I'm a fan of those complex cushion case designs. It's vaguely reminiscent of the Longines Heritage 1935 or Pilot Majetek cases (or the Hruodland F018), which are some of my favorite contemporary releases lately. The hour hand is kind of "meh" for me on here, and the NH35 movement choice is also sort of "meh", I agree that having the NH38 would have been a nicer choice. The strap is super nice, it looks like it'll age beautifully. Overall, that's a very good looking watch!
I used to own one with a brown dial a few years ago. My tastes have now changed, and I find it a bit large now. I wish they wouldn't polish the case backs of their watches though.
That Leather Strap tho...😍
Handsome watch. Greetings from Michigan!

Greetings!
Beautiful dial (gives me Alpinist feel) , lovely strap .. a shame about 1) ghost date movement, 2) thickness and 3) case size that negates some of the elegance of the other features.
Those are Bremont hands. Super marine S500.
A bit big and chunky for me, especially when compared to a baltany with a similar shape case
I don't see the appeal due to value. The design is nice, but it's a lowly NH35, it has ghost position, it isn't sure what it is (diver spec water resistance on something that's probably mostly a dress watch). I would consider it for 300, but 400+ can get you (in my opinion) better options from big or micro brands, both in terms of styling and performance.
I was excited to hear that the Aqua was on sale, however, on the website it’s still showing as full price 😢

@@ilikewatches Thanks Gary, a tad bigger than mine so a good indicator. Keep up the good work amigo! :)
At $701 cdn on their website, this is way too expensive for an NH35 powered watch! it deserve a Selitta SW200 or equivalent. Cheers
Looks like a VISITOR watch...
All that’s missing is a gun turret
Very lovely and good looking watch, but.... over-polished, this is too much and at least makes the watch will not be looking so good in daily wear because the finger- prints
Sorry I keep thinking of the cheesy Geiko Gecko mascot ...
The hour and minute hands don’t match, the hour hand should be a cathedral hand, the colour of the strap doesn’t do the watch any justice at all. Why put a brass bit on the end of the crown, it looks like the coating has come off and left the base metal lol Not the best designed watch but the other retro watches they do look great
Why? WHY they use nh35?!? They can use nh38! I hate ghost position! The price difference is only a few dollars!
I have a certain part of my body i call Big Red 😳
Lovely design and beautiful dial but simply too large. If they made this in a 40x46/47 I'd be all over it like a rash.
If that is their best, they need to employ a new designer.
I hat3 this channel! Now I need this watch too😂😂😂
i cant stand it when they put a nh35 in a no date watch stop doing THAT!!! just get a nh38 its so cheap!!!!! and they want people to pay that crazy amount of money for this.... this is a trash watch just for that fact alone!!!
