  • [161211 New Addition]- [UHR]- the 1st AUTO CHRONO of my life!



    Got this from the courier roughly about 30mins ago. Aww... it was really a long neck wait that takes about 12 working days to wait for the arrival.

    1st impression-
    The watch itself is quite heavy, much heavier than that of my STEINHART Ocean 44 DLC, even though it was in leather strap. The big face was a tad bit bigger as well, since it was listed in UHR's website as 45mm. The orange markers compliments well with the black dial. Look closely, the black dial seems to have some lines of textures that make this piece kind of classic looking. The fresh leather smell from the strap... ohh... smells delicious.
    How's the lume? Initially i thought that only the major hands are applied with the lume material, so i charged the the lume by using LED torch on the dial for 30 seconds. GUESS WHAT?!! The hour markers are lumed as well! although not so bright as the hands maybe... i guess probably due to some kind of glossy material applied on the markers that might have affected the brightness.

    The package quality-
    The watch is packed together with a black plastic card as well as the user guide on ETA 7750 movement in a hard-card based box with 2 clear elastic film securing the watch that may help to prevent against any hard knocks or vigorous shaking during the shipping process. Truly an economical way to save on packaging cost that may eventually passed on to their customers from different part of the world. However, the external box that packed the watch box was delivered with serious dent, that luckily does not passed on to the watch box.

    Will i go for another UHR AUTO CHRONO?
    You bet i will! For the price of 399euro, or perhaps another model that may cost another 100euro more...
    UHR AUTO CHRONO is really a great catch that must not be missed!!!

          [DIY Self Mod]- [UHR Chrono]- journey 2 the correct bracelet

          It has been a month since i got my UHR auto chrono.
          It was originally shipped with leather strap, which may looks good and matching, but due to personal preference, i've been on the searching for compatible bracelet to fit the watch.

          Went to Mr.GOH first. He do have the 22mm lug size bracelet, with logo-less snap clasp. Unfortunately, the lug end is flat and without link cover.

          Then went to WINs watch, where my regular seller is. They have the bracelet with lug cover, but no size. The snap clasp is with CASIO logo as well. However the boss there had made an order for me for the matching TISSOT style bracelet with the correct size and lug cover.(till now, no news yet as his supplier couldn't get to contact the manufacturer @ china's end). So i go ahead to place order with him.

          My wrist cannot tahan strapping, even if it is a short period. So i went back to Mr.GOH, bought a bracelet from him to temporary tahan over the period, waits for the arrival of my order at WINs.

          Today, to my surprise, i came across a QnQ watch with the TISSOT style bracelet @ Mustafa which i had missed all along!
          Got that hastily, change over the logo-less snap clasp, make a change with the bracelet which i got at K2... Voila! Matching classic looking bracelet to the classic looking chrono!
