Bought the ML07 w/ sapphire for one of my sons. It’s the perfect watch for a young child. He wears it every day and has three straps that he swaps out to match his outfit that day.
Great watch that and as you say, a great versatile watch - I hope they continue to enjoy it 👍👍
I mean honestly. You can’t even buy a decent Casio at this price. Sapphire?! Sapphire?! Did you hear that Seiko? Yes, yes, I know Seiko not putting sapphire on their “affordable” watches has nothing to do with cost but still. Thanks for the great review. Insane value… insane.
Exactly that mate. Absolutely unreal value and as ever, I appreciate your support 👍👍
Nah, I have the ML07. Its size and boxed mineral crystal is much more authentic.
@ I hear you. But I’m a clumsy idiot so I get some serious scratches on my mineral glass. Although you can buff out some of it if you’re willing to put in the time and elbow grease.
@@adk7962 Well, if you wear the same watch day in and out, sapphire is the way to go.
Glad you got round to this one Si, it's bonkers, untouchable good for the monies !, I like to imagine this available in high street shops like H.Samuels etc, alongside brands like Rotary, Sekonda and Timex etc just to show people the difference in quality and specs you can obtain even on a budget.
It really is mate and I don’t think there’s a better field watch for the money 👍👍
Damn just pulled trigger for $33 last day price reduction. I could not resist. My 3rd 11/11 snag. Bought a tidy Tandario auto field watch pre 11/11 on choice day promo for $39 all in that’s been on my wrist since fast delivery. Also snagged that Cadison ‘creme’ dial sub you reviewed for $40. I love the Tandario watch but the NH35 is running + 20 sec a day and it’s pissin me off. All my NH31’s are spot on. See what this little 05 banger is all about and sell Tandario if I like it better. Thanks Simon 🍻 cheers
Those 3 watches for $119 is outstanding mate, some seriously good watches at a very, affordable price - enjoy man 👍👍
@WatchtheTime Cheers mate. Love your revews and offerings👍. Every watch i have bought since i started on AE before last sring sale has been on sale at crazy low price for what i received. Delivery to USA has been a week or less on watches little longer on bands and tools.
@davekat4680 nice one man. I hope you continue to enjoy this hobby and I appreciate all your support 👍👍
Great review of an amazing watch. The price is just unbelievable, I was very temped, but bought the Murph like ml08 for about £13 more, I don't think it is a better watch, but I thought the dial/hands/polished bezel and shorter lugs were just worth it.
I have the very watch in at the moment and it’s another great option from Militado - enjoy man 👍👍
@WatchtheTime Thanks, I have to wait for Christmas though 😁
Bought the black one on in June. Got the MOD arrow on it which I know it's wrong but one of the reasons to like it 😊
Nice one mate - enjoy 👍👍
Great review as usual! I've had this Militado ML-05 now for a few days and it seems to be high quality and really is a beautiful field watch. I was looking for watches with the sweep VH31 Seiko movement and came across the Charlie brand and a few others, but this really caught my eye. So far keeping time to the second and I'm really pleased. Fits in very well to the rotation including an Omega Speedmaster, Luminox, Seiko Kinetic, Casio Lineage, IWC circa 1949, Elgin circa 1950 and an Amazfit Balance smart watch.
Nice one man and that is some collection you have there - enjoy 👍👍
7 hours of tv watch shows viewed this weekend & not 1 was a pilot/field watch with nato straps.
4 hours of Invicta alone (yes I’m a sinner) & zero but u should see what’s coming out for Xmas!
I bought a set of 6-52mm venom’s to use as drink coasters😂😂
Am glad u could change that mate and many thanks for your comment, it’s made me chuckle - top man 🤣🤣👍👍
It is funny I also used to watch the ShopHQ channel Invicta program all the time (have never owned an Invicta).
So recently I got curious and found a CHEAP AliExpress ani-digital watch ($12?) to test the size (52mm) and bold design.
I have to admit I get the hype now. It wears surprisingly comfortable and is one of my most complimented watches on the wrist.
Hi ya the tv channel went bk so they switched to jtv here in USA- I’ve got a 6 3/4 inch wrist n I sport a 57mm Russian diver invicta n boy oh boy do I get looks😂
Btw I bought 3-39mm dress watches recently n wow the change will do u good❤
@mauricesoulis1590 that is a big boy! Enjoy your new pieces my friend 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime I use it as a dish plate for thanksgiving potatoes! 🤙
A watch so nice, I bought it twice. It's the Steeldive SD1970 of field watches.
I completely agree mate and that is a good example too 👍👍
Looks great with that strap
Am really glad you like it mate 👍👍
Looks hard to beat at that price.
It sure is mate - outstanding 👍👍
Got the Boderry voyager a while back myself: titanium of course. Great design , dual less cluttered than this . C £50 delivered.
Nice one mate. I still own the bronze version of that watch and it’s very, very nice 👍👍
When i hear your intro tune i thumbs up straight away.
The most chilled start on TH-cam! ❤❤
PS. Nice watch. lol
Ah thanks man - I really appreciate that and I am also happy that your like the watch 👍👍
Got it, love it. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great stuff mate - enjoy 👍👍
Excellent, but where's the name on the dial face?
Militado don’t tend to do that which on Military style watches, isn’t a bad thing tbh IMO 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime military inspired watches should never have Branding on the dial IMO, also its nice that it has drilled lugs.
Just bought one on basis of this review, cheers dude!
Nice one mate. Am really pleased I could help you make an informed decision on the watch - enjoy man 👍👍
A very nice watch and an exceptional value.
I completely agree mate. Exceptional is a great way to describe this watch 👍👍
@WatchtheTime I definitely do not need another field watch, but I will probably buy it anyway.
@tonydilucente2342 I hear you mate -
I do the same thing all the time 🤣🤣👍👍
Nice watch with a very good price.
It sure it’s mate and I’m glad you like it 👍👍
Are they fixed lugs ? Can I only use a nato? Also did I miss its 20mm on the lugs ?
Cool video as usual mate 😎
You can install any 20mm lug width strap you want mate - thanks for watching 👍👍
Fantastic bro looks great
Am really glad you like it man 👍👍
I stopped buying from the name brands because i would feel ripped off and stupid to pay for.
I get that mate. Brands like Militado are too good and affordable to look past now IMO 👍👍
Looks same as Hamilton the movement and case great got to buy one
You’ll love it mate 👍👍
Definitely a more than competent homage at a bargain price
For sure mate 👍👍
I just got the Addiesdive field watch for $39. I wasnt aware of the Militado at the time though.
Am sure you’ll love your new Addiesdive mate and I’m happy I could bring this one to your attention too 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime yeah. Thanks 🙏🏻
For the same money you can get the Tandorio version with the Seiko NH35.
For £30, really??
Mine arrived today. £37 delivered and tax paid. It really is remarkable value for money and a very nice piece.
That is a lot of watch for the money mate - enjoy 👍👍
Minute 6:40 time 8:10 I hate the minute hand doesn't line up as the second hand it's about to reach the 60 sec mark.
The watch is fantastic the only complaint is that probably they downgrade the nato strap got the green one , its the worst strap i even seen plastic like a toy watch strap .
I get that mate but for the money, I really don’t mind it + it’s a whole lot of watch for the money 👍👍
A great watch for a lady hand, if only it was 42 at least.
Lady hand 🤣🤣
I like watches this sort of size but I guess we all like different things, including watches 👍👍
I would pay 20 bucks more for better lume.
Me too mate but I think I may have one like that for you, coming very soon 👍👍
Bro is wearing gloves to handle a $40 watch. SIgh.
It has less to do with a watches price and more to do with finger prints tbh mate 👍👍
