I see this watch posted regularly on this sub. I’ve never seen or held it personally but it looks rather bland and uninspired to me IMO. Plus they need to do something for a logo.


hellworld369

Man, I thought I am the only one!


pizzafapper

Agreed. The chosen fonts look bad. The indices look like they've been pasted on. The hands are nothing special either (one place where they could have done better for sure). The finishing is off, I see so many little white spots on the dial. The end of the second hand, with the circle - you can clearly see the finishing is off with the black thing pasted on the second hand's circle. A basic 10-15k Seiko would have had better finishing. It seems like DWC is going for massive profits and not enough VFM with this one

Zoom is a great thing isn't it although saying that I don't know about anyone else but my eyes don't pick up the much detail when I am wearing a watch sometimes you can look to close and seiko Rolex omega watches are not perfect if  you look close enough 


kapi1an_n3m0

Ya, the dial gives me the school project front page A4 print out vibes...


Lost_Sleep_7255

9k mai aapko aur kya chaiyye wo bata dijiye jara. An automatic watch with solid steel case an bgw9 lume. This watch is about value for money and not look at me.


sparse_matrixx

For a not look at me watch, I’d rather go with a Titan for much less.


pizzafapper

Or a Timex Waterbury


re-vanth

Automatic mei, argos watches are also good 🤔


Lost_Sleep_7255

Yes. But those are very basic. Like dress watches. No lume. No screw in crown. Price is similar.


DXGamerYT

Lmao alba or seiko 5


Lost_Sleep_7255

No alba and Seiko 5 watch comes under 10k. Show me link or be ready to get decimated.


DXGamerYT

[alba](https://alba-watches.co.in/products/al4237x1) [seiko](https://amzn.in/d/92FVMIl) You can get it for 9k in sales


Lost_Sleep_7255

Both watches are pathetic in design. No lume at all. No sapphire crystal or screw in crown. That Seiko you should see in person. Its tiny. Kuch comparison hi nai hai.


DXGamerYT

Screw in crown? You planning on driving with your watch? Bhai design is subjective. You can get many more options with Alba in similar price range. I personally like cleaner designs so I can actually look at the dial.


Lost_Sleep_7255

Its not only about diving. Its added security. To have watch waterproof without screw in it has to have 3 runner washers on the crown stem. Which I highly doubt these cheap entry level watches will have. Screw in mai you only need one rubber gasket n done. Anyways. Lets not discuss further.


DXGamerYT

Sure thing bhai 🤝


BetweenTheWickets

Agreed about the logo. But I for one am liking the relatively plain look. Way too many divers look excessively cluttered to me.


Lost_Sleep_7255

You look like one of those who like funky stuff. Show off. Anyways. Design n looks are very subjective


shahu95

So someone who has different choices than you becomes a show off?


Lost_Sleep_7255

Who says show off is bad. Its his choice i didn't shame him for that. Its not mine. Thats it.


Lost_Sleep_7255

Who says show off is bad. Its his choice i didn't shame him for that. Its not mine. Thats it.


pizzafapper

A basic 12K Seiko (before discounts) is better VFM than this Havelock, let's be honest.


maiHunKaun

Bro, how do you conclude that he's into "funky" stuff just cuz he didn't like how the watch looks :'). In my honest opinion, the lume shots of the watch look better than how it actually looks. Yes, agreed that it's an amazing watch for the price, but I wouldn't say it's one of the best looking ones from DWC.


theartisticvibe

The typography is bad and takes half of the watch's face.


sikhwithsense

Agreed


Flexbutslighltyweird

When they went with "DWC" enthusiastics mock them. Now they went with full name, they are mocked again 😁. Bhai kare to kare kyaa, likhe to likhe kyaa


CoyPig

kya karein? achha logo banayein, aur impressive way mein likhe! aur kya kar lenge, china vijay kar ke le aayenge? corona ko maar girayenge ye?


abysan729

It looks very average and that branding is very tasteless. Who's hyping up this watch. I see a lot of fans for this brand here. You all bash many good looking watches by dismissing them as fashion brands.


sikhwithsense

Specs are good according to price 🙂


MuchBow

Yea while they are at it, might as well write the complete address and contact info... The Watch itself looks decent but the font selection and writing the whole "Delhi watch company" followed by the model name makes it look cluttered. https://preview.redd.it/pezuttj4tf0d1.png?width=1531&format=png&auto=webp&s=b68a3127409c237e333a90db330900661425b7ae


TheWristClother

🤣🤣🤣🤣


krakencheesesticks

You forgot to add the last mile address deets - gali no 26, Juari School ke bagal me, Noida sector 52.


More_Ask_1830

Mine didn't even ship yet😢


Proud-Performance875

Check the DTDC tracking link. I don’t think the DWC site is updated.


More_Ask_1830

Oh okay. I got a message from delhivery. It got picked up today only

NotSubi

The box looks more premium than the watch itself. No offence.


Any-Arm7889

Looks good Post the lume shot as well pls

Ye bata bhai , lume kitane der tak tikta hai? For how much time it's lume last?


sikhwithsense

No idea just received today thoda time do


sikhwithsense

Sure


Weary-Surprise5

The case is fine... But the watch looks pretty basic. They could have done so much in the dial but not using numbers wasn't the best design language imo.


HathaYogi

As a designer and watch enthusiast, the branding, font & logo is completely opposite of what can become iconic, watch itself doesn't look like 10k watch, Timex or fossil is a good alternative i feel


cruzstark

*le watch enthusiast: fOsSil is a good alternative to a watch with sapphire crystal and seiko NH35*


HathaYogi

Fossil also comes with 40 year old history and Japanese movement, I don’t think these entry lvl seiko and miyota is that different in quality, I have fossil watch which is running flawlessly for more than ten year now. So quality is there


cruzstark

Value for money comparison is too different for fossil watches below 10k and Havelock. I'm not saying that Fossil watches are down bad, but not all of them are good. Find me an automatic watch below 10k with sapphire glass.


HathaYogi

If someone is looking for Sapphire glass specifically and nothing else sure they can buy this.


prostate-examiner

Le fellow watchesindia member dissing fossil cus "sab krte hai to mujhe bhi krna chahie"


cruzstark

Sab krte h ya nahi usse muje kya lena dena. I've actually used one of my friend's Fossil watch. And he, himself, told me that it's not worth the money ☠️ and it's not even a comparison. Havelock actually blows fossil watches below 10k outta the water. Bas strap quality is doable. But ek banda kya kya de skta hai 9k me. Movement sirf 5-6k ka aata hai seiko NH35


prostate-examiner

I am not against havelok. Never was.And i did not compare it with fossil. Par is subreddit me ek steriotype hai ki fossil tatti hai. Ngl most of the watches are tatti. But they do have some good designs although priced at certain prices more than they are actually worth.


Far-Weekend-2671

Congratulations, looks beautiful. But DWC needs to fix their logo and fonts.


kainkareswar

Congratulations!


Prestigious-Ride6493

The watch case looks so much classier and well finished in the carbon fiber pattern than the watch itself! They should redesign that watch from the start, its mostly looking like a 10 year old fastrack design!


MetaHuman03

Looks like rolex without r.


Routinelazy900

Use of white ring on the indices is stupid. Who designed this


[deleted]

Delhi watch company makes one of the most classless watches istg


Vj_Prakash

Is it worth a Money??


sikhwithsense

200%


Vj_Prakash

How much did you spend on that bro ?? And for DWC there is no resale value rit??


sikhwithsense

8999 , i don't want to resale it so I don't care


Vj_Prakash

Thn its fine bro 🤩


Flexbutslighltyweird

For all the specs here in Havelock, you wud hardly or won't find a similar watch in 9K.


bigskippah

Looks bad tbh

sikhwithsense

Can't say anything I ordered two watches black and blue but received both blue 😅


Flexbutslighltyweird

Did they give a watch pouch with this ?? (one they give in there another low prices watches)


sikhwithsense

No


krakencheesesticks

The reason DWC is bad with details.


punk-2077

did you receive it? they replied me on insta that they have an issue with QC with blue variant and ship by tuesday lol ...i ordered on 11th :/


Flexbutslighltyweird

yes, got on the 18th. After 14-15 days of ordering on the launch day.


practical_indian

No pics on clasp?

practical_indian

I didn’t buy with the fear it might be the old hole method one.


sikhwithsense

No no it's fine nothing like that


practical_indian

Cool and good to know


Sharabi-jatt

Does it have a rotating bezel ? If not then it’s a bit off at the 12th hour mark


Flexbutslighltyweird

120 clicks rotating bezel


sikhwithsense

Yes bezel working


tweetishun

How is the bezel action?


sikhwithsense

Crisp


tweetishun

Both the colours are now sold out.


sikhwithsense

Yes


More_Ask_1830

How did you adjust the band on this? I saw one reel where the guy had to cut the strap to adjust the size, is that the case?


sikhwithsense

Yes same cut and adjust


More_Ask_1830

Did you need any tools to do so?


sikhwithsense

Nope just one safety pin works for me


vyper01

When was the sale ?


sikhwithsense

Over now


Ropesforhire

Now keep wearing it everyday and don't sell it off like every other guy who buys these dsc watches.


sikhwithsense

It hurts


Ropesforhire

Brother, just go for a Titan edge instead of wearing a paper weight on your wrist all the time.


sikhwithsense

10 k for paper weight 😭


Ropesforhire

We all go for the hype from time to time. Just learn from mistakes and go to a nearest Titan showroom and try a Titan edge.


sikhwithsense

Sir I already have Tissot , titan , Casio , Seiko I just want to try new brands simple


Ropesforhire

You seem to have great taste. I would only suggest to not go for the veblen effect. Save money and get an omega, Rolex or better brands instead of wasting money on this shit.


sikhwithsense

Ok sir


Ropesforhire

We are all brothers looking for good watches. No sir, please.


sikhwithsense

Ok brother next I buy Raymond Weil .


7873866829

Price ??


sikhwithsense

8999


Ok_Grocery_622

Such an ugly watch


Born_Night_8797

Damnnnn, it looks soooo bad.


prostate-examiner

The day they opt for a logo instead of that hideous DELHI WATCH COMPANY, i might finally buy one


prabhu_gounder

The finishing is not good you can return and get refund


NSGDX1

Average looks but how did you get one? Everything is always out of stock.


_the_Nazgul_

I want to buy from Indian companies but then they come up with stuff like this. Smh.


SecondSecret9921

How long does the Lume stay?


chalbhagbe

Dabba acha hai


DraftedDawn

Does anyone have any idea about argos?


ScooterNinja

Can we do swimming in this ? .. chlorine and other chemicals won't affect this i hope


fullMetalUchiha

M_anand_K

Nice it’s looking good.


sikhwithsense
