1956 Marine, Steel / Navy & Off White

1956 Marine, Steel / Navy & Off White

I really wanted to like this watch...but I returned it.

I think About Vintage came close, but ultimately for me, missed the mark on this Seconde Seconde collaboration. The dial was interesting, but About Vintage did not highlight that the "1" in "1956" is scratched out, playing on the 10th century motif. Too playful, because it looks defective. The bezel has no practical use, so it might have well been "fixed", it was also sharp on the edge. Legibility is useless in the evening. The hands are shaped like swords of the era, but at least could have a stripe a lume. The date placement was fine. The Bonklip style bracelet is light and thin by nature, but this makes the total feel of the watch too top heavy. It was also sharp on the edge of the links. The Miyota movement of choice is what was really disappointing. If it were a quality hand wound movement, it would have gone along with the vintage vintage feel there, second seconde. 499 is just way too much, for this watch, even if collecting pieces from Romaric Andre. Not for me, but the return process was fast and simple. Good communication from the AV team.

1844 Chronograph

I am very pleased with my 1844 Chronograph wristwatch. I ordered the black and green straps. The straps are easy to remove and install, making this watch a versatile wardrobe piece. I would recommend this watch; love the craftsmanship and the overall look. I searched through hundreds of watches to add to my collection and am very glad I chose About Vintage and their 1844.

Novel watch

Novel watch. I like the design. At the same time, what would possibly have been better would be to have more contrast between the hands and the dial. . . Also the date window is just way too small to be useful.

very good watch

A classic!

This is a beautiful watch perfectly crafted with a stunning design. The company has an amazing customer service. I highly recommend it.

Very nice watch

Fast delivery! Very nice packaging and very nice box! The product looks very valuable at first glance! I hope that giving it as a gift is as fun as ordering it :)

Unique

Very nice design. Great quality. I just wish the watch hands would be slightly thicker, other wise all five stars.

Piece of art

It is my second purchase from About Vintage. And the watch is really beautiful and the size is perfect.

Love it - amazing quality

I now have 5 About Vintage - my favorite collection

The suede strap totally looks different from what you guys advertised and that what it got my eye , in the other hand I really loved the steel strap and the watch . The engraving looks messy too

second purchase

hi, did my second purchase as the other one is 4 years old, so a Christmas present to myself as a token of my superb behavior towards myself this year

Excellence in every respect! Such an alluring timepiece’s example to complement every gentleman’s wrist! (Although I do already have trouble keeping my wife’s hands off it)

Nice watch collection and great service, I wish you all the best.

Great

Great quality , value for money

Beautiful watch - quality and style

Amazing watch, very good quality, fast shipping and love the engraving. Happy customer!

Terrible

I had to pay extra fees to DHL - charged me almost the original watch price, and only approx 20% were related to Taxes. Talked to About Vintage and they only said “its a DHL process”.
When I finally received my watch, there were no engraving - which I paid for.
Terrible experience.
Will never buy from About Vintage again.
