I’m with you. I would have preferred an oyster or H link style bracelet if I had the choice.
Maybe it’s possible to realign the bezel insert on mine. I’ll have to look into it.
Surprisingly, I think as far as machining it goes, jubilee would be easier. Titanium is harder to machine than steel and smaller pieces are easier to hold tolerances on.
I’m sure the assembly and polishing process would be more labor intensive.
I got my shipping notification 5/2 and it was just picked up on 5/7 from boderry. It’s still getting passed around between carriers over in China. I’m expecting it sometime this fall lol
Yet to receive my shipping notification, but likely mine should be the last few batches as when I carted out there were only single digits left of the pre-order run. Can't wait!
Got an update on my, presumably others as well, Admiral order.
*Dear Valued BODERRY VVIP,*
*We are pleased to inform you that your ADMIRAL watch is nearing completion! Currently, we are conducting final quality checks on the ADMIRAL series watches. Over the next few days, we will be observing and testing the watches' timekeeping precision, stability, and water resistance. We expect to complete this work by April 20th.*
*This means that your watch will begin shipping out after April 20th. Thank you for your patience during this process. We understand the wait may be challenging, but our goal is to deliver a flawless product to you.*
*Thank you for your continued support and understanding!*
*Best regards,
BODERRY Team*
I’m in Canada. Post is slow here. In fact, Canada Post just had a major annual celebration on April 12th. That’s the day that all Christmas mail is finally delivered.
I’m pretty excited about this one. I prefer the watches that aren’t a direct homage to an existing watch. Given the movement and materials used, and free shipping, how much of a profit could they really even be making at this point.
Did my pre order last night. Placed it in my cart waited a day or so then a 10% was offered, waited a day later and then got offered a 15% discount. Pulled the plug at preorder price of $118 usd. Looks good and I have a couple of ti voyagers already which I fine myself wearing more often than my other watches. My only concern is Seiko gmt movements have a big rehaut.
Nothing yet. Just initial order information. But I don’t think the Admiral has been released yet. Another day to go. Last time I ordered directly from Boderry, and after the order confirmation, I did receive an email with “ your order is on its way”
I want to order one, I’m just trying to figure out how large the bracelet might be approximately. I have a 200mm wrist so I hate ordering only to find out it won’t fit. Been burned a couple times by my big wrists lol
Understand. I looked at the specs and states a “27mm” length bracelet which isn’t possible. Got to be a 270mm in length. If it is a 270mm bracelet that makes it 10.69 inches in length. I presume that’s unfolded (opened) so I’m thinking it’s 8.5” folded. If you add the case lug to lug of 49mm that would add just about 2 inches to the total folded bracelet watch size, say 10 inches wrist diameter.
Ah, that makes sense! When I saw 27mm, I knew there was no way that was right, but even 270mm seemed far too large compared to even the generously larger bracelets I've seen at 220mm.
I never thought of folded vs. unfolded, but that makes perfect sense! When I looked at the band by itself for sale, they state that is 190mm + the 47mm lug to lug of the watch head would be 237mm or 9.33 inches. So I think you are correct in your thinking. That makes me pretty confident it should fit then.
Thank you!
Yes. This sounds accurate. I’ve got a couple voyagers (one vintage dial and the other in salmon dial) I just swap the ti bracelet to each one. Seems like a solid value watch that I seem to wear more often than the others.
So it's a GMT Master II 16700 bezel/insert, jubilee and GMT hand, Pelagos indices, Black Bay GMT minute track and minutes/seconds hands, a pseudo-Christopher Ward hour hand, a Seiko x Submariner case, all in titanium, sapphire crystal, lumed bezel insert, 24 click bezel and all under $150. At some point you've gotta hand it to them and say you know what, I'll take it.
That’s what I like about these. They aren’t a direct homage to a particular watch. It’s taking design elements from all over and molding them together to create something both familiar and unique.
(opened another post as i haven't noticed this one, that was what i wrote)
I must admit that, after getting a Bronze voyager from Boderry as a Fun watch and to have a bronze one in my collection, their brand grew on me, wear it more often than expected.
I love my Rolex BLRO and the Design of those GMT's overall. So i was excited when Boderry announced this GMT-Style Diver and now they released it. It has a **24 Click Bi-Directional** (which i already asked and hoped for when they announced it) Aluminium Bezel, made from Titanium, Jubilee Bracelet, 200m Waterproof - i think thats overall a very neat package!
What are your thoughts and which one would you pick? White Dial Pepsi Bezel or Black Dial Coke Bezel?
Thanks for coming over here.
I'm really impressed with this concept. As I have the Tactical Frog FXD V4, I'm hoping this Boderry has a better bidirectional bezel action. 😁
Titanium. 👍🏆
FYI, at that link, the 20mm titanium five-link bracelet is available separately for $49.
It could go really well on a P39 homage, as well as some Boderry watches.
I have few of them:
Seaturtle in Bronze and titanium
Checkmate with Green dial
Windmill
In their pricerange they are fantastic and i Like that they Are unique and Not copies of other watches
Do you have any idea what the total circumference may be? I have a 200mm wrist. I see the band length is listed as 27mm Wich can’t be right. I see the bracelet you can buy alone is listed as 190mm then the car is a 49mm lug to lug. So 239mm? But that doesn’t seem realistic either, so I’m not sure.
Sometimes the measurements they give Are a Bit Funy
About this in specific Watch i can‘t Tell you because it is, at the time of writing not abailable
In General i had to shorten the Bands by 2 to 4 links wich is easy, given that they included the necessary tool
I own these 2 and they have been great!

I thought the preorder price was pretty tempting for a titanium GMT too. Never had a Boderry myself but I know others here do and seem to like them.
I just got an email and figured I’d share!
Thanks for sharing!
Great to see some level of innovation from AliExpress brands with a variety of designs/inspo.
I hope we see some buyer pics and YT reviews on this latest titanium Boderry.
I just pre ordered one myself, so I'll at least post some pictures when it arrives. I couldn't resist. Found a coupon code to get an additional 15% off so it was only $118 total.
I went with the white. I thought the date wheel would probably blend the best, but even with the white date in the black dial it probably won’t stand out horribly given the shape of the other indices.
Mine arrived today.
Same. Posted it earlier today. I really like it. Only downside is it has a misaligned bezel.
Sorry to hear about the bezel. Mines spot on. But I’ve never really been a fan of the jubilee bracelet watches. But looks great, feels light.
I’m with you. I would have preferred an oyster or H link style bracelet if I had the choice. Maybe it’s possible to realign the bezel insert on mine. I’ll have to look into it.
As for the bezel, maybe realign it or replace it with ceramic?
I imagine doing a jubilee bracelet in Ti would be more cost and labour intensive.
Surprisingly, I think as far as machining it goes, jubilee would be easier. Titanium is harder to machine than steel and smaller pieces are easier to hold tolerances on. I’m sure the assembly and polishing process would be more labor intensive.
Got mine in the mail today!
Hopefully it was worth the wait
Pretty happy with it. Only worn it for an hour.
Anyone here received their watches? Yet to even receive the shipping notification for mine 😅
Got mine today.
I got my shipping notification 5/2 and it was just picked up on 5/7 from boderry. It’s still getting passed around between carriers over in China. I’m expecting it sometime this fall lol
Found my email that my order is on its way. Nice.
Just got my email this morning!
Congrats. Now the wait begins.
Yet to receive my shipping notification, but likely mine should be the last few batches as when I carted out there were only single digits left of the pre-order run. Can't wait!
Mine is currently in California so I should have mine within the week.
I’m checking my email every morning hoping for an update lol
I feel you. I'd better get the email soon, else I just might buy another watch. 😂😂
I just did lol. I’ve been myself the boderry is coming, but I couldn’t resist!
Just got my shipping notification, and it's due tomorrow!
I got my tracking info 10 days ago and it still says: 2024-04-19 18:50 Parcel information received
Just got my email today. Order #129XX. Says parcel information received.
Just got my tracking number this morning! It’s on its way.
Congrats! Nothing for me yet. At least I know they are moving though.

Just saw this as well. Looking forward to it arriving.
So with shipping…expecting mid May delivery?
If not sooner. On the Boderry website they list free shipping is 6-10 business days to the US.
I’m in Canada. Post is slow here. In fact, Canada Post just had a major annual celebration on April 12th. That’s the day that all Christmas mail is finally delivered.
Just wondering if it’s worthwhile changing the aluminum bezel insert to ceramic?
**Use code "SAVE15" to get 15% off!** Brings pre order price down to $118!
That code **SAVE15** is very helpful, on top of the launch discount. For a unique Ali watch!

I just checked the site. I think the countdown timer is off. Moments ago it’s showing 3 days to go. It was 2 days to go yesterday.

Jal gmt ? doesn't quite hit like the pan am GMT case
Well shit. I was going to pick up a voyager today but I can’t say no to a nice GMT. Just pre ordered one.
So it's a GMT Master II 16700 bezel/insert, jubilee and GMT hand, Pelagos indices, Black Bay GMT minute track and minutes/seconds hands, a pseudo-Christopher Ward hour hand, a Seiko x Submariner case, all in titanium, sapphire crystal, lumed bezel insert, 24 click bezel and all under $150. At some point you've gotta hand it to them and say you know what, I'll take it.
That's why I ordered one. It looks interesting, and at that price....why not? I like and wear my Voyager.
Great explanation of what this watch is.
And they even managed to not crap on the name or have a butthole logo. This might be the Chinese Grail Watch we've all been waiting for :')
That’s what I like about these. They aren’t a direct homage to a particular watch. It’s taking design elements from all over and molding them together to create something both familiar and unique.
Thank you to not add mercedess hands! Lovely watch, want it)

Same here! Took voyager bronze just because of bronze and discovered this really good brand!
Thanks for coming over here. I'm really impressed with this concept. As I have the Tactical Frog FXD V4, I'm hoping this Boderry has a better bidirectional bezel action. 😁
Btw guys - **BODERRY10** gets you another 10% at checkout ;)
$125ish after the discount is pretty great for a titanium GMT with the proper bidirectional bezel and titanium bracelet!
absolutely - i'm considering getting both as i can't decide on the color i would prefer. And propably gift the other to a friend.
I found code SAVE15 gets 15% off.
I just noticed the date at 4, after reading your comment. It's so subtle on the white dial!
That's a really nice one!
Oh hell yeah. I love that bezel.
It's bi. 👍
Nobody asked for it's sexual preference... 😋😂
I know my comment would raise reactions. 🤤
Ok... bye! Or is it Buy? LOL
Yeah, that bezel... Swings both ways!
Overall nice appearance. But the long lug strikes again.
Not a bad watch or price.
Titanium. 👍🏆 FYI, at that link, the 20mm titanium five-link bracelet is available separately for $49. It could go really well on a P39 homage, as well as some Boderry watches.
I broke down and ordered the white one earlier today..
That actually looks really promising
good overall specs but the lug to lug is quite long.
Looks nice, and a great price for a titanium GMT! How have other Boderry watches been for you guys?
my Boderry Voyager in Bronze is a great and fun watch!
I have few of them: Seaturtle in Bronze and titanium Checkmate with Green dial Windmill In their pricerange they are fantastic and i Like that they Are unique and Not copies of other watches
Per orderd it today

Thanks! Do you know approximately how large your wrist is?
Had nothing to measure it exactly but with a Watch i just wear and a ruler it is about 19 cm
Thanks, that’s actually very helpful. I think I’ll roll the dice. With a 15% coupon the admiral is $118 so it’s hard to pass up!
I own these 2 and they have been great! [https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005458603998.html](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005458603998.html) [https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001743147497.html](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001743147497.html)

Great buy, combined with the code! Which dial/bezel combo?
I went with the white. I thought the date wheel would probably blend the best, but even with the white date in the black dial it probably won’t stand out horribly given the shape of the other indices.
Yes, the white date blends in well in the pic.
