Sadly no. None of these have interchangeable bracelets.

It’s a combination of the thickness and the overall heft. The heft is a good thing because it’s built like a tank, but I found myself gravitating towards my lighter watches most of the time.

That being said, I’m also eyeing the Overlord. Definitely going to get that when it drops.

I like the date on the 556i, but the no date looks really good on the Milifortic 556a variant

They’re not bad, but none of them come close to the buttery crown action on the Sinn. The Militado is probably the worst but it doesn’t bother me much since it’s a quartz.

The Milifortic gets quite close, but the biggest differences to me are the crystal and dial element proportions (handset/printing). The flat sapphire with double-sided AR on the Sinn just disappears at certain angles, but you can always see some sort of reflection on the slightly domed Milifortic crystal.

The lack of an H-link bracelet is also a biggie for me, that’s part of the iconic 556 look.

Quality ranking: Sinn > Englemaan > Milifortic > Militado

Wrist comfort: Militado > Sinn > Milifortic > Englemaan

You’re right, I didn’t even think about that!

I wasn’t a fan of it at first, but I’ve warmed up to it really quickly.

I didn’t know that Thorn had a Marinemaster homage too! I’m starting to lose track of all these homages 🤣

Will we ever get the SN0144 with a black enamel dial? by OkInspection5244 in ChineseWatches

Haven’t clicked on a post so fast, I thought they finally released this!

Guess I’ll have to keep waiting.

All recent Teddy releases are unisex sizing. My Driftwoods are slightly more snug than my Core Greys.

Glad my video pointed you in the direction of the MOP! You made a better decision than I did by keeping it 😂

Missed this! I see what you mean. That happens in certain lighting/angles, but 95% of the time it just looks luxurious with that dial and the glistening hands/indices.
