I am looking to buy a nice first watch for myself that I can wear outside of the workplace in my free time for daily activities. Asking in a previous post here, many have mentioned the Seiko Alpinist, but it just doesn’t make me as satisfied compared to these two due to their history.
This is the new smaller version of the lunar pilot which I tried on in person recently and looks quite nice on my 7 inch wrist. https://www.bulova.com/global/product/98K112.html?cgid=lunar-pilot
This is another that I strongly prefer, though there isn’t a place to try it on in person. Looking at people’s videos, this one to me visually looks more appealing. The downside i’ve read about is the customer service for this watch and the quality control which is why I’m hesitant. https://nivadagrenchenofficial.com/collections/super-antarctic/products/super-antarctic-91412b
what size is your wrist? also, i read about people complaining about the nivada super antarctic online coming defective and then getting ghosted by the company… have you had any issues with yours?
6.5 inch wrist.
My NG came with no issues. I’ve only interacted with customer service for that customs form and they were pretty responsive. Watch shipped fast and was only delayed about a day for customs.
thank you! I just ordered one. Did you have to pay import tax on it or just fill out the form?
