Any experience with Edox?



Is the price fair at $219.00?

Yeah I think that watch is closer to $300 on Ebay. If you like it, buy it.

$200 and a sapphire Crystal?

Not bad.

I'd be skeptical though. Quartz movement. When battery needs changing is the watch worth the cost of service? If you care about pressure testing the water resistance.

As a brand I've not heard of Edox.

I do not pretend to be Broke.

I wouldn't pressure test. The back is easy to remove by yourself and change the battery. More than likely the o ring will be fine.

Good looking but I don't like how the case extends beyond the bezel

When broke starts talking about being careful not to pop your rear o-ring...

Time to just grab a mechanical GMT

Broke, what do you think about that Breitling with the 406 beacon in it...

I'm tempted, no lie.

I've had a lot of watches... never heard of Edox. Ashford is a pretty legit watch site. That watch has a huge discount... from $1250 to $219... that's crazy.

That could mean that the company is in the dumps or that watch line is discontinued. You may end up with a good watch, but you may also end up with a watch that is inaccurate or extremely uncomfortable to wear.

No legit $1250 is sold for $219.

That's a marketing ploy. Can't believe anyone would fall for it.

Only if that's what they are paying you to wear that ugly thing.

It slides over the crown and serves no real purpose.

And that Breitling is $15,000 and I already have a Breitling emergency so I'm out on that one
