DAN HENRY 1970 WATCH REVIEW
At a wrist watch I recieve set for review at Watchreport. More often than not I've got a wise decision of the items the timepiece will probably be in advance, however in the situation from the Dan Henry 1970, I had no clue what to anticipate. Saying I had been amazed could be an understatement. Now, allow me to be obvious, so there's no confusion, as many people prefer to read into things an excessive amount of. That does not mean this is actually the most fantastic watch on the planet, this Dan Henry 1970 Diver certainly punches above its cost point. Who's Dan Henry you may well ask? Well, he's a lover of vintage watches, as well as began their own website focused on them. Which is that passion for vintage pieces that brought him to their own watch brand, featuring its 4 different types at the moment. 

So allow me to get to it. The timepiece comes to a card board box, having a plastic cylinder which houses a leather/canvas travel roll, which will contain the watch and 2 extra straps. I normally don't discuss packaging whatsoever, but have the presentation here was purposeful and incredibly nice, again, thinking about the cost point. I really like whenever a travel roll or perhaps a zippered pouch kind of packaging can be used because it not just occupies the absolute minimum quantity of space, but additionally enables you so that you can utilize it instead of another box just relaxing in the closet.

The 44mm situation draws inspiration from compressor style cases 

In the 70’s right lower towards the mix hatch pattern around the dual crowns. Something I discovered immediately interesting is the fact that neither crown screws lower, the Dan Henry 1970 is rated water-resistant to 200 meters. It's not the very first watch to possess this rating and never possess a screw lower crown, even though I normally prefer it for your extra assurance, both crowns are solid and tight, and that i have tested it to find out if water would enter, even submerging it within the sink for around 30 minutes, with no issues. The Two o’clock crown obviously operates the interior bezel which turns easily, although not easily so much that I've found it knocked unnatural frequently. Initially glance, the transition from brushed to polished finishes is extremely congratulations, though when you are getting really close, you can observe some rough brush lines. You need to get super close, or make use of your macro setting to determine this, and overall the machining here's great, again specifically for a wrist watch selling for $250. Yes, the cost and cost this is a running theme of the review.

Preserving the vintage theme, we've old radium colored lume around the markers and hands, or vintage lume, or faded lume, or tan lume. Whatever you love to refer to it as, it's not an odd shade of yellow like I've come across on some, it's a warm tan hue, and that i enjoy it. The gray chapter ring is really lumed too, that was something I wasn't conscious of until I acquired the Dan Henry 1970 in hands. Aesthetically, I love the option of hands, even though I'm not against using a date window, I believe this could have been better still without, or possibly they might have offered both versions. Topping the dial is really a double domed azure coated mineral very, that can bring me towards the first subject of contention.

Azure coated mineral is exactly what it may sound like

A mineral very having a thin laminate of azure regarding this. So, it's supposed to provide you with the very best of all possible worlds, scratch resistance of azure using the impact resistance of mineral. All the Dan Henry watches are extremely affordable, and so i understand using a lower grade very, though maybe just choosing straight mineral could have been better. I haven't experienced any issues so far, although it is stated the azure coating can eventually separate and remove, making this something to consider, and can be.

The Dan Henry 1970 may be the only model presently that provides a computerized movement, within this situation the Seiko NH-35. I've covered this movement frequently here even though a lesser beat movement, it hacks and it is very capable. My excitement lies using the situation back though, a complicated placed situation back by having an Octopus putting on a divers helmet. I'm not really enamored using what is around the situation back, but more it utilizes a couple of different finishes, is well machined, which is not really a look out of situation back a lot of brands appear to make use of.
