Excellent GMT Hommage
While not a full on watch freak, I do appreciate a quality timepiece and have a small collection (Speedmaster Professional, Planet Ocean, Porsche Design (Eterna) Chrono, Apple Watch S4 etc), due to nature of my work, I needed a watch that could show the time in two timezones, it had to be practical, waterproof, accurate (within limits) and stylish. As much as I would like a Rolex GMT II, the cost and impracticalities of wearing such a watch were self evident.I started searching for a cheap GMT homage and this came up, I like the "Pepsi" bezel, the logo seemed fairly discrete and it had an automatic movement, I avidly read the reviews and searched for photos, reviews and videos, there are a few about.I then decided to get one just to try, the Prime one I purchased was around £30 dearer than the non prime one, but the reviews on the cheaper one said the bracelet was cheap and nasty. I am not sure if they supply a different cheaper bracelet on that one because the one I got was definitely not cheap and nasty.Same day delivery (thank you Amazon!) and the box arrived. I had to sign for it, the Amazon box felt surprisingly light.The watch arrived in a small case, more like a sunglasses case than a watch presentation box, this caused initial disappointment, then I removed the watch and, was pleasantly surprised.Now the onerous task of removing the heat shrunk plastic wrapping the factories in China always seem to wrap watches in. I was pleased though as the watch seemed very well made.Pulling out the crown and setting the time, felt OK, no cheap, loose, flimsy feeling, the screw down crown seemed well threaded with no issues. I adjusted time and date and all seemed OK. (Tip if the date is hard to adjust, this is true on nearly all mechanical watches, simply move the time so it isnt anywhere around the 9:00PM to 03:00AM, do not force it, its to do with the mechanical date change and it will change easily.)Accuracy, a pleasant surprise, tested over 12 hours, it has gained 3 seconds.Adjusting the bracelet was easy, (do get yourself the proper tool for this, don't pay a jeweller, it takes 5 minutes and is easy to do. Something like this will do the job, (make sure you protect the bracelet when doing this) https://www.amazon.co.uk/Zacro-Watch-Remover-Repair-Watchmakers/dp/B01E3MFJKG/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=link+adjustment+tool&qid=1564814585&s=gateway&sr=8-5So if you fancy a nice automatic watch, that you can wear every day, looks stylish, keeps good time, then you wont go far wrong.Positives:Crown is very solidCrystal seems robust, its not a sapphire but is pretty hardy.Lume is reasonable.Bracelet is actually very nice.Bezel is secureIt has a feeling of solidity and is well made.The "Pepsi" look.NegativeUni-directional bezel on a GMT?Update: After 2 days of wearing I am seriously impressed by the accuracy, in that time it has gained 8 seconds which for a mechanical watch with a rumoured "Seagull" movement is little short of astonishing.

Not bad at all!!!
Nautec No Limit has been around for a couple of years now, and i do believe that it is a brand that can make it. The watchcompany is Germanbased and often uses chinese automatic movements and they can be uneven in quality. This watch performs very well though, + 5 seconds per 24 hours. It uses a Seagull GMT movement, Seagull is a chinese well established brand. The finish of the watch is very nice, it looks and feels solid. I quite like the "Pepsi-look" of the bezel.

Not a Rolex
It's a big heavy impressive watch that does everything you want from a reasonably simple GMT watch. The GMT hand doesn't move independently of the hour hand (it does on the Rolex) so it will only give you two time zones, but that's actually fine for me.The Pepsi bezel is seriously cool, the strap reasonably comfortable and the clasp works.It's not a Rolex, but at ranges of over about a yard nobody will be able to see that, and it looks a hell of lot more expensive than the under seventy quid Amazon are charging for it.I hope it'll last longer than the far Eastern Rolex's as they tend to die after a couple of week. If it dies I shall write again...Ijn answer to another review, the bracelet pins are NOT threaded, they're drift pins, but someone has cut a shallow slot in the heads of them to make them look like as if they screw out, they don't, and you'll need an 0.8mm drift to get them out... The pins come out in the direction of the arrow...--------------------------After 11 months it died.Amazon sent me a replacement within 48 hours.So it keeps its 5 star rating from me.

Zero quality control.
Never have I seen such a poor watch.I have no idea where these are made, some say Germany or China. Which ever it is they should be ashamed.The crown feels like it will fall off at any second, but the main problem is the second hand. from 30 secs to the minute it acts like a quartz watch and up to 30 seconds it stops at 10 seconds for 5 seconds then jumps to 15 seconds and repeats until 30 seconds stopping and jumping!My advice is do not even think of buying this trash, let alone buying it.

It's Keeping great time and looks fab on the wrist
Have had this watch a couple of weeks and I'm loving it. It's Keeping great time and looks fab on the wrist. This is a big and heavy watch which is a great homage to the Rolex GMT Pepsi Bezel ( see photo above) but at a fraction of the cost. I've given only 4 stars as the bracelet so not as good as an Invicta which I also purchased around the same time. If you are looking for a watch that people will notice for the right reasons then this is a no brainier at £66. I ordered it on Christmas Day (Friday) and it arrived on the following Tuesday, now that's fast over a Christmas bank holiday weekend.Update.Sad to say after 8 months of occasional ware (I rotate my collection) the braclet has broken. Had to buy a replacement. I still like the watch a lot no problems there. So have reduced from the four stars to three.

Very satisfied with this watch
Quality at this price is fine by me, watch is very heavy, but the strap is of less quality, but is good enough. Adjusted the strap by removing links, and as someone else has pointed out, you have to knock them out in direction of the arrow inside the strap, using a 0.8mm pin. I used a link pin extractor as purchased on ebay (small blue plastic vice) and as long as you start by tapping the link pin slightly towards out position, locating the vice pusher pin becomes easier, and the pins are then very easy to remove. Some people think that the pins are screwed in because on one side you can see slots, but this is because they are split pins. The watch movement, setting and timekeeping are all OK. Just remember this is not a Rolex but just as good to the layman.
