Every Chinese knows Beijing watch, while it seems like they are not as popular as those micro brands, I do not see too much talking about Beijing watches in watch forums and Reddit, those watch fans seem more likely to buy micro brand watches to enrich their watch collection. However, not every micro brand watch has a trusted quality, after all, most people are attracted by their more affordable prices. While the big three watch companies in China, including Sea-gull, Beijing and Shanghai, have already established a relatively good reputation in watch industry. There are a lot of watch brands in China, if classified by level, Beijing should belong to the highest tier 0 level, while I think their high-end tourbillon watches and enamel watches make the greatest contribution to make Beijing have such a high position in Chinese watches industry, and our watch fans, whether in Italy, France, UK, USA or other countries, are more familiar with the dragon dial watches and tourbillon watches from Beijing. But there are also some good quality watches with cheap prices and good styles from Beijing, just like this watch I just bought from them.
It is a full stainless steel made watch, I bought it because of its Bauhaus dial style and they said they will also send me a free leather band, but they did not, and in the box, which is hard to draw out, there is no manual book. On the card, all information such as purchasing date is empty. These information sometimes are important to our watch fans, they shouldn’t ignore this.
This Beijing watch has a round polished case that is 40.1mm in diameter, 10.9mm in thickness. The weight of the entire watch is about 90.1 grams, not heavy for a full stainless steel watch because it has a hollow mesh bracelet. Its dial has a very simple and easily readable design with black hour markers and minute markers in white dial background. For Beijing watch, making it different from other micro brand watches in China is that they do not have compromise in the finish of some tiny places, for example, on this watch, the Beijing logo on the dial is tridimensional, the date window has layered silver frame, the clasp has a more secure locking method, these are tiny details, which may not be well finished on some micro brand watches, but are finished perfectly on this Beijing watch.
This watch is sold at less than $100, it comes with a see-through crystal back with an automatic movement that looks like Citizen 8215, well, the watch has been on my wrist for three days and still keeps a very accurate time.
