Reviews

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Wolbrook Skindiver II Professional

Owners widely praise the Wolbrook Skindiver II Professional for its comfortable wearability, long-lasting lume, and attractive dial designs, with some appreciating the quartz accuracy and smooth sweeping second hand. The watch features a 40mm diameter, a well-weighted 120-click unidirectional countdown bezel with a BGW9 lumed triangle, and a shock-resistant HexapleX case architecture. It is powered by either a Miyota 9015 or 8315 movement, with the latter adjusted in France to ±15 seconds per day and offering a 60-hour power reserve. Some owners find the 20mm strap potentially problematic and note it wears like a 42mm watch despite its 40mm case size. One reviewer expressed disappointment in hand color matching, poor lume, bezel wobble, and the watch sitting high on its strap, ultimately not recommending it.

From video reviewers

The watch features a world timer bezel and a vintage aesthetic. Reviewers noted the Miyota movement as a potential drawback.

Yema Diver

One owner reported a water ingress issue on their Yema Diver the first time it got wet in a lake, despite rinsing and inspecting the watch and bezel. Another owner notes this manual wind Yema Diver has a cool patina but is unlikely to be waterproof or gain value. Overall, owners view the Yema Diver as a fun second watch rather than an investment.

From video reviewers

The Swiss Sellita movement is a notable feature. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.
