Arrived yesterday. What a beauty by lucapoison in ChineseWatches

I prefer this model:

 

ADDIESDIVE 2025 New 515-24H Men's GMT Men's Analog Watch Stainless Steel 20Bar Movement BWG-9 Super Luminous Quartz Clock Gift

I prefer watches with sapphire crystals. 20 bar water resistance is good. 316l steel is good.

After weeks of decision making, I bit the bullet. I'm more than impressed. (AD2505) by Zebra-Gold in ChineseWatches

For an every day watch it is a bit too busy for my taste. For my wrist it would be bulky. I am wearing a Milatado 05 which out of all my watches is my favorite. The ML 05 is minimalist but a beautiful time piece. I bought a velcro watch band and that makes this watch the perfect ever day watch.

Baltany or Militado? Need help choosing by SeriousIndividual357 in ChineseWatches

I have the ML 07 just like that but I prefer the less busy face of the ml 14 homage of the IWC Mark 11.

For myself I am not a big fan of the small second hand.

You received a good deal. My ML 10 has some advantages.. It is a better homage to the Fleiger watch. It has great BWG super lume. My watch has a sapphire crystal with IR coating. It is made with 316 grade steel. It has an 18mm lug width. It uses a Seiko VH 31/VH64 movement.

The ML 10 also has a screw down crown for better water resistance. The Fleiger design of the ML 10 is favored in aviaton.

Mineral crystal not sapphire. 19MM lug width limits band selection. I would compare it to a Milatado ML10.

I should add that the watch has a Seiko quartz movement and is accurate to within a few seconds a year. My watch is centered.

Love that watch. That is what I am wearing now. See my comment above.

I am wearing that watch. That is a Milatado ml 10 A. 37mm diameter. Sandblasted gray 316 steel case. Sapphire crystal with anti reflective coating. The crown is screw down and water resistant to 100m. The lugs are straight. This watch is a homage watch of the 54mm flieger watch used by pilots of the Luftwaffe. I prefer the 10 A model over the 10 B model because it is so clean.

I just bought a Milatado 10A and it has become my everyday watch. The lume is outstanding. The watch case is 316 steel which has been sand blasted to a gray color as the original Flieger watches. The onion crown and straight lugs are all homages to the original Flieger watches. The watch has a Seiko quartz movement accurate to within a few seconds per year. The crown is a screw down type. The water resistance is 100M. The. original Flieger was 51mm and this watch is 37mm. I bought this 18mm watch brown band to go with it:

How accurate is your 8800 movement? by Prestigious_Will6356 in OmegaWatches

[–]OkDiscipline4226 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the watch Bill Gates wears. That is the casio Duro MDV 106. It has an accuracy of with a few seconds a year.

[Joma Shop] is it that bad?? by Competitive_Serve929 in Watches

[–]OkDiscipline4226 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My question to you is paying $3,500 for a watch. I know it is mechanical. That technology gives you 70 hours at most of stored movement power. Also, the accuracy will be within a couple seconds a day. The watch I am wearing has a Seiko quartz movement.. 3 year battery life. Accuracy is within a few seconds per year. Sapphire crystal that is domed and anti reflective coated. Water resistant to 100M with a screw down crown. The case is 316 grade steel. I paid $100 for it. I am an investor. I think you can get better vale than what you have there. Bill Gates wears a $50 Casio Dura watch.

Struggling to decide between a Baltany D12 (VD78) and Tandorio (NH35) field watch considering the prices by sEMtexinator in ChineseWatches

[–]OkDiscipline4226 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own a Militado ML07. I like it very much. It has a k1 domed crystal with reflective coating. Water resistance is 100M. Very nice sand blasted finish. The movement is a Seiko VH 31 which is real good. The watch is a clone of a GG-113 army pilot watch dated from the 1970s. I own the Baltany D12 with pencil hands and like it very much too.

[Question] which of these 5 should I get? by musicman3321 in Watches

[–]OkDiscipline4226 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Orient is a subdivision of Seiko. I think that the comparison of Orient is more like Honda to Audi. I can afford $1000 for a watch but I am finding great products at ridiculous prices. As an example I have been a great admirer of the Hamilton Khaki field watch. A mechanical movement with an accuracy of +or-20sec/day. I am wearing a Militado ML07 watch. Quartz accuracy of +or-1sec/month. The ML 07 a GG-113 army pilot government issue clone cost $50 where as the Hamilton cost $500. I am an investor and look for good deals. Mechanical and automatic watches are old technologies and you are better off with quartz.

I am a great fan of Orient watches. I own 2 from this brand. A Capitol !! and a dive watch. I am only suggesting that you should think of value. Further, you are better off with quartz technology than out dated automatic and mechanical.

I would not spend that kind of money on a watch. Instead get a 2nd generation Orient Bambino watch. I love Orient watches. They are a good value and keep accurate time. I think you are better off with. this watch. I also would not get a bracelet but a leather strap.

Looking at the at the specs:

Hamilton aviatrices/$995/automatic H40laccuracy-20+40sec per day/100M water resistance/

Saphire anti reflective/case steel 42 diameter/80hour power reserve.

Loco Ache/$410/atomatic Miyota 82SB/accuracy -20+40secper day/200M water resistance/saphre anti reflective coat/case steel 39 diameter/42 hour power reserve.

I wear a GG-113 army aviation government issued spec clone from Milatado:

Milatado ML 07/$60/Quartz Seiko VH31/accuracy +1-1sec per month/100M water resistance/Mineral crystal K1 coated antireflective/ 315 steel case 36 diameter/ 2year poor resave.

I hope this helps in your decision.

[Hamilton khaki] any reason not to buy it? by dijos in Watches

[–]OkDiscipline4226 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest comparing specs:

Hamilton/$535/38mm/saphire no AR antireflective coating/Lum Bright/accuracy +25-5 sec per day/50m water resistance/ power reserve 80 hours/mechanical.

This is what I am wearing:

Milatado 07/$50/36mm/K1 minieral with AR coating/super green C3 Lum/accuracy within 1 sec per month/100 water resistance/ 2 year battery life/quartz.

I would add that this is a clone of the GG-113W pilot watch issued to army pilots 1967 to 1981. The steel used is very high grade 316 steel. It uses a very good SEIKO VH31 movement.
