Militado ML05 38mm VH31 Quartz Watch - Domed Sapphire Crystal Field Watch C3 Super Luminous Retro Sweep Wrist Watch for Men 100M Waterproof

I've had my eye on the Militado ML05 for a while, and finally decided to buy one. I chose the black dial no-logo Miyota 2035 version (ML05B is the model) instead of the VH31 because it's slightly cheaper, uses a battery that I already keep on hand, and should provide better battery life, 3 - 4 years between battery replacements instead of the 1 - 2 years with the VH31. I own another 2035 watch, and found that the 2035 provides acccurate timekeeping, and the batteries are easy to change. This 2035 Militado is also about 1 mm thinner (9.5 mm) than the VH31 version, according to the specifications on Militado's web page. Otherwise, the watch is identical to the VH31 version. The quality seems outstanding. The watch came carefully packaged (bubble wrap over cardboard over a foam-filled metal tin) and arrived without damage. Beautiful shallow-domed sapphire crystal, bead-blasted 316L stainless finish, drilled lugs, screw-down crown, 100M of water resistance, and that beautiful easy-to-read dial that reminds me of the Hamilton Field Khaki. I'm not a fan of NATO straps, so I replaced it with a 2-piece strap with a buckle, purely personal preference. This is a lot of watch for not a lot of money. Update: After 4 weeks, the watch has gained less than 4 seconds, according to the NIST timeserver.

Excelente reloj.

Muy bueno por el precio, gran homenaje a los dirty dozen.

I am very happy with this watch. Clean, robust, accurate, and 200 m. I would love a matching bracelet. I cannot stand any branded dial, except some from Hamilton. I want to see the time, not advertising the number of jewels, depth, etc. The only watches that are nicer than this, automatics, cost ten times more, and they do not always have screw-down crowns. Some may prefer a mechanical, but I do not want to wind every day.

I really like this watch. It's not heavy, it's quiet and the time keeps very well. It fits well and doesn't slide around or irritate my skin. I work in a hospital and need something that can take a beating (I've dropped it several times, it's been covered in miscellaneous bodily fluids and plaster, etc.) and I can clean it up and it keeps working. Need to count respirations or heart rate? Or more serious activities? Perfect for that too. Looks professional and is durable. And not so expensive that I worry about it getting broken or gunky. Will get another at some point I imagine.
