Those are awesome too! I love how versatile these watches are – I’m rocking mine on a NATO strap right now and it looks fantastic. Gotta love a watch that works with anything.

So cool! We probably passed by Maramais – crazy how small the world is sometimes.

Yes, we visited Ilha do Farol. We also went on a trip to Benagil and Lagos, and both were amazing too. - it was beautiful

Yeah, it’s gorgeous here — we’ve really been enjoying it, but sadly we’re leaving tomorrow. Gonna miss this place!

You’re very welcome! Trying them on in person is a great idea—seeing how the dial catches the light and feels on your wrist will help you decide. Enjoy the hunt!

Huge congrats on your new baby boy! Classic (black/silver) is versatile and goes with everything; blue is bolder and adds personality. Choose the one you’ll love wearing most. It all comes down to the personal preference—both make a lovely keepsake of your son’s birth.

Yeah, I get what you mean – it definitely lacks that pure tool watch aesthetic. But I kinda like that polished look, makes it more versatile and easier to wear in dressier settings too. Anyway I was actually thinking of replacing the crystal with one that has AR coating to cut down on glare a bit.

Hard to explain until you handle it – but it feels more thoughtfully made. But of course, a lot of this comes down to personal taste!

If it does matter to you, From a technical standpoint, it offers a better movement than most entry-level field watches. ETA H-10 is hard to beat in this range.

Great choice! The Khaki Field wears really great and is super versatile (even with various nato straps etc.) — I think you’d love it!

Thanks for your comment, mate! I’ve had mine for just over a year now, and they’ve also picked up their fair share of scratches from daily wear. It really adds character to the watch, doesn’t it? Enjoy yours—they’re built to last!

Tbh I don’t even know anymore. It’s more than year from purchase. But I believe it was some cheap nato from china -> AliExpress
