All about the Vintage VDB D22 Pepsi GMT Bronze
Everything about the Vintage VDB D22 Pepsi GMT Bronze, which impresses with a black dial and a rubber strap.
Although the watches seem out of time due to their nostalgic and eccentric appearance as well as their exclusive production in handcraft (intentionally, of course): inside, except for the vintage movements, high-tech is installed. Anyone who thinks that a small Thuringian manufactory cannot keep up with the world brands in terms of progress is mistaken. In recent years, VDB has attracted attention through several innovations. The Erfurt manufactory invented a special crown protection mechanism. In addition, the watch achieves a water resistance of up to 500 meters.
The movement of the Vintage VDB D22 Pepsi GMT Bronze
Although VDB installs modern technologies in its watches, it relies on nostalgic individual pieces for the movements. Each movement has its own history and is brought back to life in the VDB watches. The D22 uses Swiss ETA 2824-2 movements with automatic winding, which are known for their durability and good quality.
The case
The case is made of stainless steel, is 47 millimeters wide, 52 millimeters long, and an incredible 19 millimeters high! But don’t worry, the dimensions of the watch never appear oversized.
The dial
The dial is characteristic for VDB in that it only displays the most important functions unadorned and easy to read. The elegant black is, in my opinion, exactly the right color and fits perfectly with the design of the bezel and my strap. Overall, the dial has a maritime look and vaguely resembles a historic measuring instrument.

My personal view on the Vintage VDB D22 Pepsi GMT Bronze
"VDB has made no empty promises. This watch meets all my expectations that I had beforehand and often even exceeds them. The Thuringian manufactory has brought a concept to the market that was previously missing: handmade men's watches that are different, that want to stand out. Robust, with edges and corners and not watered down. Sporty, very elegant, and of the highest quality. With this idea, Stephan Obst and his employees hit the mark perfectly. And not only with eccentric superstars like Rammstein or Kiss, but with anyone who wants to be something special and not have the run-of-the-mill 08/15 watch off the shelf. I have always experienced the watch as something special in everyday life."

About me
My name is David, I was born in the late 60s in NRW, now live and work in the beautiful Harz Mountains, and have been running this watch shop, among other things, since spring 2022.
Since 2018, I have also been running my watch blog watchdavid.de, which features hundreds of reviews and watch news. Since then, I have taken thousands of professional watch photos for over 100 watch brands. Many photos can be found in my reviews. I am known worldwide for this.
As a result, I naturally had thousands of watches in my hands. And with this shop, I want to bring you closer to watches that have convinced me in many ways.
So come along on a journey full of watches... off the mainstream... and if you have a question, please feel free to ask me anytime via the form, chat, WhatsApp, email or phone.
I am very much looking forward to meeting you.
PS: My hobbies & passions include the internet (first agency already in 1996), Denmark, France's coasts (Brittany, Normandy & Côte d’Azur), hiking, e-MTB, sales (Bachelor of Sales) and photography.
My Achilles' heel includes children's chocolate, good food, sneakers & of course watches... :-)
Shipping & Insurance
Within Germany and the EU, I ship free of charge. Shipping is done via DHL and insured up to 500€, 2,500€, or 25,000€, depending on the watch value. The watches are thus always sufficiently insured.
The delivery time can be found in the description and/or under the shopping cart button. Some watches are only produced after ordering, others are brand new and, for example, only available in a few weeks (so-called PRE-SALE), etc...
Cancellation & Return Shipping
You can cancel your purchase within 14 days of receiving the goods.
I will cover the costs for the return shipping for you.
IMPORTANT: Do not send the watch back yourself, I will send you the free return label.
Please simply contact me for this. david@watchdavid.com
It is also important that the watch is unworn and free of signs of use. After successful inspection, I will refund you the purchase price. The refund will be made using the same payment method you used for the purchase.
Authenticity & Condition of the Watches
I guarantee you that all watches I offer are exclusively new original products. The watches come directly from the manufacturer and have had no previous owners, unless I explicitly point this out (e.g. so-called PHOTO WATCHES).
As an official dealer, I offer you exclusively authentic products. These are offered in the original packaging, with warranty card, etc., just as they are delivered by the dealer. Everything in the so-called full set. One delivers more, another less...
Warranty & Service
All watches purchased from me come with the international manufacturer's warranty, which usually lasts two years. Some brands even offer a warranty of up to 5 years.
If a warranty case occurs, I will take care of the shipping to the manufacturer or the responsible service center for you and also organize the return shipment to you. In addition, I handle all communication with the manufacturer so that you don't have to worry about anything.
Even after the warranty period has expired, I remain your contact person and support you with service questions or repairs.
No response received?
You wrote to me via the contact form, through the price proposal, directly by email, chat, but you haven't received a reply?
Then please check your SPAM folder! Many providers are getting crazier and pushing more and more into spam.
I usually answer every inquiry within 24 hours at the latest. On weekends, it can sometimes take a bit longer. As a rule, I respond within a few minutes or hours.
Something can slip past me sometimes too. Or the technology doesn't work as it should. Feel free to write to me again at david@watchdavid.com
Mechanics - Sometimes things can happen there too
Before I ship your order, I carefully check each watch for visible defects.
If a problem should occur, such as damage during transport, please inform me immediately. I will do everything possible to quickly find a solution and ensure that you are satisfied.
My goal is to offer you not only high-quality products but also a first-class shopping experience. I look forward to welcoming you as a satisfied customer!
