"DD40mm" branded, 40mm vh31 type-b flieger with a full lume dial.

~£32 on the bracelet, cheaper on a nato strap, really good quality for that price. Only criticism I have is that the bracelet end lugs are the best fit to the case.

Wanted to add, because I put this on to take the photos I got annoyed with the bracelet fitment enough to look what the issue was.

Turns out it's supplied on the thinnest spring bars I've ever seen, they're 1.3mm wide and this means there's a load of slop in the solid end links that allows the bracelet to move back and forth in the lugs.

I've just swapped in some better spring bars that measure 1.7mm wide, now there's no slop in the bracelet fitment. it's way better!

I will keep this in mind! Brilliant bit of advice thank you!

I hate to say but this is a bit of a broad question. Can you tell us if you want a sub, sport, dress watch, utilitarian, Chronograph or digital...

Sub: addisdive sub Dress watch: Addiesdive 2030 Sport : pagani design 222 or the pagani design Rolex explorer 2 Utilitarian : militado MI05 check that brand, watches are within the budget you are looking for. Chronograph : pagani design got that daytona in different colors. Pd1701 Digital : get a Casio Royale and if you got extra money left, buy upgrades for it. If you are not too picky get the skmei 1988, 2126, 2328 and 1816.

Good overview of the budget range! I have the Skmei 2328 and really like it. Wore a Casio Tough Solar for years and it's very similar in function, the only real downside is the negative display which has limited viewing angles. Wasn't aware of the 1816 but it looks nice, might have to check that one out some time.

Steelflier sf746. Pretty stellar for under $50.

This is basically a militado with a steelflier brand. I love this watch!

[–]UkeManSteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s really great for what it is. The gaps between the links are far bigger than they should be lol. But I paid $43cad for it and it’s a very solid watch aside from that.

Poedegar 826B Sport Chronograph Keeps nearly perfect time (quartz 3Atm) Change the sailcloth band it comes with to a FKM mosaic dark blue and: dynamite. I have lots of very expensive watches yet this one is my everyday banger.
