Just got the U1 rose gold land dweller with Miyota movement.
I just copped this rose gold land dweller.
I wanna start by saying that for the price this is a very nice looking replica……Let’s dive in a bit deeper.
Case and bracelet are very solid feeling, bracelet is a bit on the lighter side but thats OK for me, it also has some sharp edges but again it’s not a deal breaker. The face has a nice honeycomb pattern, which I’m a huge fan of, pretty well made.
The date window is nice and centered, however the magnification is def not 2.5, i would say maybe 1.75 - 2.00 instead, still pretty solid, considering this watch has officially only been out since last year. As far as the date font, its def off on most of the numbers but its too be expected, I’m sure it will be rectified in future versions.
Let’s look at the movement which is a miyota 8215, also has the land dweller signature rotor, made to look like the original. The movement is solid and holds impeccable time……see through back of course just like the original.
All other details from the crown and other fonts, i would say they are admirable when you consider the price point.
In the end, i will say we have a watch that is 80-85% identical to the original, keeping in mind they replicated this very fast, i would say it’s a good job.
