Hey fellow watch aficionados! ๐Ÿ‘‹

I recently came across the AW1750-85L and was wondering if it's worth considering as a budget-friendly timepiece.โŒš๏ธ

The AW1750-85L boasts a sleek design (reminding of an Aqua Terra) and a reasonable price tag, but is it a worthy addition to your collection? ๐Ÿค”

I'm wondering the same. I don't need it but it looks so nice for the money. But I can't find much about it online. I'm afraid it will feel or look cheap or something.

I would not bet my money on solar watches. I would stay with mechanical everyday.

I like the case and the dial, and I trust the movement. But I've not the biggest fan of the minute/seconds markers, as well as the bracelet. But all in all it seems pretty great for the price. Personally I would have looked for something with sapphire and solid end-links, but I'm not sure how many entry-level quartz pieces exists with this, or how much one would have to go up in price. But all in all, I would say it's a great value piece and a safe choice as long as one is fine with hollow end links (or will wear it on a strap).
