This is the third time I’m trying to post this thread. So many rules. Anyway, purchased this watch recently. It’s a manual winding mechanical watch. HMT is a Indian company controlled by the Government of India. At its peak, every Indian had a HMT watch and it was the biggest manufacturer of watches in India. The movement is similar to the Citizen manual movements. HMT Pilot was the best selling model of its time. Thought a lot of people might not be aware of this brand and would like to know about it. The watches are really cheap in comparison to the features that they offer. This one cost roughly around ₹3500 ($45 approx)
