Watch Review Armitron Pro Sport 40/8159 -is it your next Casio?
Hey guys,
In for review today is the Armitron Pro Sport, ref 40/8159, first Armitron on the channel and it's a fun Casio alternative, there's room for improvement on the digi display but for the price it's pretty cool!
cheers

    I bought the black dial version and it looked great on the wrist - but I had the same issue with the second hand and there was also a lot of play in the hour, minute, and GMT hands - when changing them you had to play around to get them to be aligned. This would be ok, however, the GMT hand especially quickly got out of step with the hour hand and it was a fair way off accurate. Given it isn't a cheap watch (some may disagree) I wasn't too impressed so sent it back and got a PRX powermatic which is rock solid. I know quartz can be a bit off, but I have cheaper quartz watches where the second hand is bang on. There is a bigger, US only version of this Tissot watch which is automatic - does anyone know if this gets over the issues I mentioned?

    I own the predecessor to this model before they were codified with the NSN NATO stock number, and it has proven to be incredibly durable over the four years I've had it. What surprised me the most is the resilience of the PVD plating; despite a pretty rough life, it has held up exceptionally well. I would absolutely purchase it again. There's minimal difference between the NATO stock number model and my version, aside from some minor details on the dial. I've seen both, as a friend owns the current model in stainless steel, while mine is in PVD. They’re nearly identical, with only a few subtle differences in dial design.

    I have the older mineral crystal version with the T dial. When I took it for a battery change (after 3 years) it failed the pressure test, and was told the crystal was not correctly aligned. (I can feel it protruding when I run my finger nail around it.) So, it's likely it never was waterproof and certainly not to 300m. That aside, the seconds hand hits all the way round and it's a fairly accurate watch.

    Functionally, I like it but that knurling on those fake screws on the buttons is a very poor design. The thing that really kills the buy for me is how huge this watch is on the wrist. My Skyhawk AT can't even keep its year setting so my days are wrong. I really don't understand why it happens so Citizen is kinda on my crap list. It has put me off spending much for a watch and I've just bought a very inexpensive Casio with a nice day/date display.

      ​@@thetimebombardier I have a Casio WS-B1000 w/Bluetooth arriving tomorrow so the phone will now update the watch and it's only 11.6 mm thick. No interest in the running data, I just wanted a thin watch with Bluetooth and Casio's great set of features. That six tower business is way overblown in a world filled with smartphones. The outstanding issue with the Skyhawk other than the loss of year issue, is your always aware it's on your wrist. I always had the automatic time sync turned off on the Skyhawk as it was a battery drain but It kept remarkably accurate time anyway so setting it manually worked just fine.

    If you are looking for a rubber strap for this, I would recommend the 328 series from Bonetto Cinturini. They are NBR Rubber pass-through NATO style straps. Also, have you ever handled a Bertucci watch? Bertucci also uses fixed spring bars.

    Excellent production and a fine looking and promising watch. For those of us who depend on our watches and stand on the shoulders of the giants that made this type of watch famous, I can't blame the manufacturers for standing on those same shoulders. Keep up the good work and Godspeed.

    A very sexy dive watch! I like the simplicity of the dial, rock solid construction & heritage. I real hard as nails dive watch! Love the fixed spring bars for extra security whilst wearing on wrist when swimming in the ocean/diving. An absolute nato strap monster! My only negative is that seconds hand alignment 🤔

    I have seen a few of these but never owned one. They do look super good though! The finishing is superb as well! How can you improve on perfection! If it works it works! This would be and probably is a superb duty watch. The only reason people love mil-spec stuff is because they have never been issued mil-spec stuff haha! I've heard that the SANDF (South African National Defence Force) used them in small batches but I cannot confirm that. I have yet to meet a service member with an MWC. Take care man!

      I'm surprised you haven't met a member with an MWC because they currently hold the the contract with the British Ministry of defence which is confirmed by this document which a friend of mine who is in the military forwarded to me drive.google.com/file/d/1XKWMnePVJA7ugMz4WuDvBUt6ioNncqCT/view?usp=drive_link of course with this watch having NATO codification it has to be questioned as to whether or not they are likely also to secure the divers watch contract but of course that's pure speculation because they could have been required to supply the item with NATO codification even if it's not going to the UK, it could be going to any NATO member state.

      @@johntyandersen1925 Could be because South Africa is not a NATO nation so maybe our requisition works slightly different. That being said I spoke to an artillery corporal this afternoon when I was in town and he told me that most of his battalion uses G-Shocks or Casio's. That doesn't mean they are not out there. I just haven't met them yet. Take care man!

      @johntyandersen1925 hey John many thanks bud and interesting to see the FOI details as that certainly adds some solid perspective, my time was many year's back and everyone had gshoccks seikos and citizens and neither i nor my brother were ever issued watches, current friends who are still in are on gshocks or garmins, but as you say the divers might be issued elsewhere and that was what i was wondering also. I got an email from someone higher up in MWC yesterday so I'm gonna pose the same question and will revert back to you with their response 😎👍

    I picked one of these up about a year ago, and am very pleased with the quality. My experience with the lume seems to be better than this one, as I have no trouble reading the time if I wake up in the middle of the night. I prefer the removable spring bars, as I've never been able to comfortably wear a NATO strap.I wear mine on a Barton Silicone Elite strap. I can't see any justification for the CWC costing 3 times more for a virtually identical watch, other than it's "official" Royal Navy issue status. Thanks for the review.
