Armida A7 Brass 300m

Thinking of getting this, my first brass watch, the armida a7 in brass, USD332 after christmas discount

Like the green dial with date and orange looking lume...NH35 movement, worth it? Any bro here who own Armida watches can comment on their quality, finishing, reliability etc?

A7 and A8 both got brass model. I prefer the size and date location of the A7. But A7 cost a bit more. The price I put is already after 10% and inclusive of delivery

Ya I think NH35 is the non seiko branded 4R movement. Just not sure if the NH series is of same quality and reliability compared to the 4R? And is Armida build and finishing good?

Same as Deep Blue/Helson and the bunch that uses Fullswing or other contract manufacturers in HK.

maintain the stock hands.

doubt snow flake will compliment the brass case due to the pinkish gold hue.

Re: Armida A7 Brass 300m

Crown seem smooth to me. Best thing is the "A" on the crown is straight up after tighten.

Date is centered. Just find that the hole for the date is a little small. :D

nice...u are one of the lucky ones with "A" that is straight up when screwed down haha

Yah now a days all the date aperture is too damm small for my old uncle eye sight, think i need to get a watch with big date complication or cyclops date window.

Have you tried swapping to the full brass bezel? i asked chris if they can install the brass bezel for me but they can't..

yday Dagaz post on facebook, he is coming out with a navy blue snowflake dial, maybe a good option for direct pop. :twisted:
