    Love a vintage inspired field watch. I've owned a Smiths PRS-29a since 2018. It's an incredibly close recreation of the Smiths W10 with an ETA 2801. They cost around £500.
    I've put it through hell and it's been great. If you believe the Internet Smiths are impossible to get hold of, but I've bought several on their website now with no issues at all.
    I loved mine so much I pretty much stopped wearing my Oyster Perpetual, and I sold my Hamilton Khaki Mechanical.

    Very nice video on a topic I'm quite interested in. Thank you. My $.02 is I prefer a more traditional, smaller watch, say, 36mm. All the best.

    These are nice. But the DD-45 is pricey for what you get. For that price you can probably get a real vintage. For the Tom Rice, I don't understand why they used an NH35 which has a date complication. That means there's a ghost position. Would have been better if they used the NH38. The case size is also not accurate. Baltany offers better value.

    My only query on these great watches is the hands of the DD-45 ... are they too clunky? I would say so...

    It's a shame a good company like this has non existent customer service .
