CuSn8 Bronze Pilot Watch | Unboxing STEELDIVE SD1903s

This CuSn8 bronze Pilot Watch from STEELDIVE has a vivid appearance, with its jet black dial and orange cathedral-style handset. Legibility is definitely maximized on the SD1903s, an homage to the legendary, oversized Zenith Pilot Type 20 Extra Special. This budget friendly version features a slightly double-domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, an NH35A automatic movement from Seiko, strong applications of luminescence, and 200 meters of water resistance. Let's check it out together in this extensive unboxing video!

You can purchase the SD1903s directly from the manufacturer's AliExpress store. Here is an affiliate link to STEELDIVE Store: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DlA...
At time of publishing this video, the price is approximately $265 USD.

Here is the new stainless steel version (SD1903) if you're not into bronze. At time of video, it's approximately $180 USD: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_9Ro3zE

NOTES: I mentioned in the video that I would leave notes regarding the strap. It does NOT include a bronze buckle on the rubber watch strap...it is sold with a stainless steel buckle on the strap. They DO sell a bronze buckle strap separately, or you can also purchase JUST the bronze buckle to replace your included stainless steel buckle. Here's that link: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_AN2chY
