RED8 by Christian Bedat
« on: October 16, 2009, 04:55:02 PM »
hey check this out guys

http://www.red8world.com/

I was try to check out how Bedat is doing after being bought over by Luxury Concepts group and also to read some reviews about their watches. Then i stumbled upon this new brand by the former founder/owner of the brand.

seems this watch is equipped with a quartz/auto movement only sold online with different customs trim starting from around USD 880. seems cool...

opinions guys?

anyway how's the brand Bedat is doing and any info bout the Luxury concepts group?

cheers

I have seen the watch personally yesterday..the red version.

honestly, i think the quality is good given it is entirely made in China. I am not sure what kind of coating is the case, but it looks like ion-plating? it does not look pvd coated as it is shiny yet does not seem to be able to be scratched out.

The rubber strap is also good quality, very flexible and does not stink. It is not the thick rubber strap.

Pretty decent size as well. A good watch for the twist of fun. Definitely not some run-of-the-mill.

well, if i am not wrong the movement is not..it's eco-quartz..probably seiko..
as for price, maybe it is because of his name and also designed by him?

as for MIC, another debatable topic.
at least they are honest to tell you they are MIC products..
some (probably most high end brands) are using some MIC parts but didnt say.
at the end of the day, what matters most is the final finished product, and marketing which is what we pay mostly for anyway.
where in the world today, can we truly get a 100% made in xxx country?

disclaimer: i am not trying supporting any particular brand or discriminating any products made from any country.
