This looks so cool and is so inexpensive. I want it but I know I'd be chasing the deal and the movement would drive me nuts. Still, it looks so good.yinzburgher wrote: ↑Thu Jan 02, 2020 1:47 am Seiko World Time Quartz Watch - $106 from Discount Shop

Gnomon has all 3 colorways of the Yema Superman Heritage GMT (LE, 100 per colorway) back in stock for $1,399 ($100 off, discount reflected in cart).
I hadn’t planned to buy a watch today but that blue/gray model is now on its way here. I had been kicking myself because I thought I had missed out on that one.

Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2020
MLTD has another coupon on G-Shocks. 35NEWYEAR. So if you want the G-Shock x Herschel, it would knock it down from $150 to $97.50.
And no, changing it to 40NEWYEAR doesn't work
They also have a lot of the pricier watches as well.

Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2020
Not to diminish the deal in any way, I just wanted to ask if anybody year had a similar experience with the Yema Superman. I recently picked one up, and was very very surprised with the 3 O'clock bezel lock. While obviously it's just a gimmick, to differentiate themselves in the market, (what they used in vintage pieces is irrelevant, IMO), but it feels like flimsy tinny and doesn't really lock well.... Anyone have a similar reaction?recapt wrote:Gnomon has all 3 colorways of the Yema Superman Heritage GMT (LE, 100 per colorway) back in stock for $1,399 ($100 off, discount reflected in cart).
Again, to reiterate, thanks for posting the deal, their watches do look beautiful, just want to know if anybody had the same experience with their bezel lock...
Happy New Year!

We covered this already in the previous thread. You're thinking about the Swissmatic/Sistem51 movement, which this does not carry.
This watch has an ETA2824-based movement.

Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2020
Those actually are Powermatic80's are they not? The non metal parts used in them are an advancement, not a drawback, they are not adjustable but a COSC certified Powermatic80 shouuldn't need to be adjusted anyway....I think someone has said they are 'based on' a 2824 but I don't know how much that actually matters considering just how different a movement the end product is. With 80 hours power reserve and no need to regulate, you might feel it has distinct advantages over a 2824, as long as it worksImpulse wrote: ↑Thu Jan 02, 2020 10:05 amjoelf15 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 01, 2020 3:13 pmThanks for this!

edit: according to this article it is possible to regulate a Powermatic80, but it is not 'user friendly' It's also 3Hz/21,600 bph, not 4Hz like a 2824
and my feeling is we can talk about it as many times as anyone wants to

Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2020
Yes, this has been covered before, but misinformation is still being spread about these movements. Some of the Powermatic 80 movements do indeed have "synthetic" or plastic parts in the escapement (which can or cannot be a bad thing, depending on your view). The particular movement in question does indeed have a synthetic escapement - movement C07.111. YES, IT HAS PLASTIC PARTS! The ones without the synthetic escapement are the C07.6XX and C07.8XX movements. These are movements that are serviceable, which is the significant difference between them and the Sistem51 movement that is not serviceable. The Powermatic 80's also cannot be regulated by your local watch maker and need to go to Tissot for that.Impulse wrote: ↑Thu Jan 02, 2020 10:05 amjoelf15 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 01, 2020 3:13 pmThanks for this!

Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2020
As Swissmatic/Sistem51 vs Powermatic movements have been discussed before, perhaps moving that conversation to a dedicated thread or this thread on movements (viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1365), might focus that discussion better? Then we can refer to that topic when a question comes up in the deals thread.
Just a thought...
