Here’s some feedback:

especially when it's literally a drive-by with no, "hey, guys, this is who i am and what i do" to it. just "hey look at my shit" won't get you a good response.

It looks like someone added crown guards to the stolen SAS case design and then milled out the sides.

I see nothing that would convince me to buy this over a mid level Seiko.
Re: Introducing Duzu Watches - Prototype - Ningaloo Reef
You might be mistaking this for WUS dude. The watch is unremarkable and generic. It looks like a mall watch. No one here will buy it.

Looks like a fun watch but those lugs will probably make it wear like a 46mm.

That lume shot looks like a radioactive bukkaki party. My mind can't even process what it's seeing.

It’s a stolen SAS case design. It doesn’t wear that long.watches503 wrote:Looks like a fun watch but those lugs will probably make it wear like a 46mm.

Stolen name too. Glycine beat you to it by several years.

Not to my eyes. Lots of differences, not counting the hollow case sides.CGSshorty wrote:It’s a stolen SAS case design. It doesn’t wear that long.watches503 wrote:Looks like a fun watch but those lugs will probably make it wear like a 46mm.

Re: Introducing Duzu Watches - Prototype - Ningaloo Reef
Dude. It's EXACTLY the same except for the hollow case sides and crown guards (as Chris mentioned), which you can get by taking the stolen design and milling it out.watches503 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2018 2:14 pmNot to my eyes.

Well, the SAS is attractive and this looks like shit. That's one difference.matt.wu wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2018 3:20 pmDude.

You don’t see the huge difference between the lugs ? Square-ish versus huge round gap ?matt.wu wrote:Dude.

Or that the outside of lugs start to come down from the inside of top of the case on SAS versus the lugs start to come down at the edge of case on the other ?
Crown guards, different bezel also. Bezel sticks out of the case by the lugs and sides versus the SAS has a bezel completely smaller and inside the case.
I get that it looks horrible to many of you but a copy it is not.

Re: Thanks for the feedback
Other than the fact that the side of the case is milled (which we already addressed), they still look like they came from the same place to me. This new, ugly watch definitely started it's life as an SAS copy.
Re: Thanks for the feedback
It looks closer to the case that Graeme rejected and were subsequently used by Crux and a few others. The lugs were shorter on that one and I believe the lug bars and screws were thicker.

I don’t see it as a copy. The SAS case and the copy from Crux is a square cushion case. This watch is not a cushion case at all.
It’s also not attractive at all. What an awful dial as well.

Re: Thanks for the feedback
It appears (at least on Tapatalk) that the OP deleted his photos and took his questions elsewhere. If so, an excellent decision.
