CADISEN Automatic Watches Men's Mechanical MIYOTA 8215 Business Waterproof Wristwatch

There are no words to say how much I appreciate the design of these watches. I must say you outdid yourself with the designs of these watches; they are elegant. I bought four of them, and I am enjoying them very much. Two thumbs up

I was looking for a less expensive watch that still looked nice when I came across the Cadisen brand. As an homage watch to the Rolex Datejust, this specific watch has the look of a premium watch overall while picking up direct design cues from a watch that's 10,000% more expensive. And bonus it's spec'd to how I would like to buy a Rolex someday...Build quality in general is good. Finishes are fine and bracelet is comfortable, no sharp edges on mine which I know can be a complaint on lower tier watches from Amazon. The butterfly push button clasp is OK, but I've found not the best in general as it lacks a second locking mechanism to secure it closed. There is an expedition caseback which I don't think is mentioned anywhere in the product info - so that was a pleasant surprise for me as it adds some interest, but may not be for everyone.My two main complaints are that the cyclops barely does any real magnification, and that the power reserve is much less than expected - on a full wind, it maybe lasts 18 hours(?) when stationary. Compared to other watches, I can live with the less than ideal cyclops - but the reserve is troublesome unless you wear this watch really consistently for the entire day back to back. I find myself not wearing it every day and more often than not I have to reset the time + date when I pick it back up. I know for the price point I can't expect all that much, but a similar priced watch from another brand advertises 40+ hours (and I've been getting that on that watch) which is enough to sustain a day on / day off wear cycle.

This Cadisen watch is beautiful!!! The blue dial is possibly the most richest, and most attractive blue dial I have ever seen on a watch. This watch is substantial with a quality build for this particular style of watch. I am looking into getting a two tone of this watch if available. The bracelet is top, and super comfortable to wear, and has great flexibility. The cyclops may not be 2.5 in magnification, but watches at 2.5 magnification cyclops tend to make the date appear too bulbous, while this the cyclops on this watch gives a nice clear and clean date magnification that can easily be seen without an issue. Great movement too. The case is 38mm, and that is just right in between a 36mm, and a 41mm dj, so great size. Don't hesitate, and get yourself one too!

Size is not the size looked for. It is big for my wrist

Nice looking for price and works well. No issues. Stays wound in automatic winder.

Nice little "Rolex Wimbledon" homage watch.... It comes with a sapphire crystal, workhorse Miyota 8215 movement, screw-on case-back with a nice little exhibition area to see the movement, butterfly clasp, the band is easy to adjust, etc. I have two complaints that busted this watch down to a four star rating rather than a solid five however: First, the end links aren't solid, why not? This cheapens the watch unnecessarily and for guys with hairy arms (like yours truly) this tends to catch your arm hairs from time to time (not fun); secondly, the crown is a push-pull crown, not a screw-down crown, as it should be... Again, what gives? Would it have been that much more expensive to add a screw-down crown? For these two reasons I deducted a star. I will also say that the lume is non-existent but that one I fully expected at this price point. I would've busted it down to a three star review but I can, and probably will, switch the band out (which solves one of the big problems with it). All that being said, I still like it enough to keep it at a solid four stars.... If only this thing had solid end-links and a screw-down crown it would've been darn perfect... Alas it does not.Update: So upon closer inspection (and actually wearing this) it does in fact have solid end links. That being said I still hate the fact that the crown is a push-pull crown, and that they couldn't tag it up with some C-3 superluminova (since the baton at the 9 and the hour & minute hands are the only things lumed on this model). I'm still keeping this watch review at 4 stars for these reasons...

Really solid watch for the money, looks almost identical to a Rolex Datejust. My boss has the same silver with black face Rolex Datejust and almost no difference between the two besides the brand logo. It’s got weight to it and was working right of the box no scratches and came with additional links AND a tool to remove them. Outstanding watch, will be buying the solid gold one next!
