Generally i don't care about sweeping quartz but here it makes a lot of sense. I slowed the video and unless i'm mistaken the seconds hand is hitting marking in the chapter ring! I'd say this is a quasi-chronograph accuracy in terms of reading. Very cool.
Just received one of these and I think it's great. Put it on a textured black rubber strap and it looks terrific. I love the "sweeping" quartz movement as well.
As far as I understand they used to be Baltany distrubutors but nicked their designs and sold them under their own brand name. Not great practice but I'm sure there's a lot of this going on with Chinese brands. I don't care as long as they keep producing these great budget watches.
@@HorizontalvertigoI think they've made improvements with their claimed water resistance. I have a Tandorio and I've worn it in the shower and went swimming with it and I've had no problems. Tandorio doesn't have very good lume but that's the only flaw I've seen with Militado as well.
@@Horizontalvertigo im using my tandorio 36mm field watch to go swimming all the time and its fine, been with me for 4 years now with like atleast 2-3 per month swimming and diving shallow salt water areas
That Is pretty cool. Particularly for the money. I wish they'd use a better lume bgw9 or something with more longevity. The Broad Arrow is a bit weird too, I don't mind it but I don't understand why they're using it either. They really should come up with their own vintage inspired logo or emblem.
For my 16cm/6,3inch wrist the 38mm case diameter is about the maximum. Unfortunately many brands putting to long lugs even on 36mm watches, which is the real problem for those ones who have thin wrists, IMHO. This model has nicely short lug distance finally. I always loved the simple and aestetic look of the "Murph", but the original is not for me, and the homages were not right here or there. I think now this is the closest to my taste.
Thanks so much for this review 😁 I'm thinking about buying this watch, but just want to know if the lume in the hands match the numbers? Hard to tell in the video and other pictures I've seen. Thanks in advance ☺
if you can't tell in review will you be able to tell in person ? :) for real, there is a difference, the hands are lighter than the dial by a bit, but the surrounds on the hands separate them enough that the difference isn't very noticeable.
@@dojoquintana nice! I had the blue V1 and loved it....recently sold it to fund some other watches (for the channel) I would have kept it if it want for the bracelet...that version used a butterfly clasp and polished outer links. New bracelet looks soooo much better

It's nicely made 👍 Militado is doing a good job again and again ! Thanks for the video.
thanks for watching!
Wearing mine just now. Great watch. I don't like the strap but this watch is a real strap monster.
indeed it is, thanks for watching!
It’s an insane amount of watch you get for the money. Militado seems to have come of no where. Thanks for the great review!

@@fyioska A bit shady indeed. But if that’s the worst thing a Chinese Brand does, it’s a win for humanity (and watch collectors) all day.
Take a Tandorio for about 50€ on Ali Ex with a Seiko NH35a movement and you'll be happy for the rest of your life! 👍🏼😎
I ordered one a few days ago, just waiting for delivery!
Until you get it wet that is

Great review, finally a decent Murph homage that gets the dial, hands and case about right, decent value too 👍

agreed...it's a point of contention from anyone in europe at a minimum.
damn.. That looks good. Now I must get one :D Not shue about the shinny bezel though, but fixable :D

Great review! Thanks very much. :)
@@carlospagi thank you, and thanks for watching
These would work well as a beater for me. Hey, Steve, are you planning on reviewing the San Martin SN0113W V2?
SN0113 is a possibility, been eyeing the green.
@@EscapeWheel I bought the black and got it yesterday. I am definitely buying the green next. I hope to see your review on it in the near future!

Just got one nice watch I’m gonna get a leather strap don’t like nato. The lume is cucca also but I don’t care really
I'm virtually 100% that Militado and Baltany are the same company. 🤔
I wish this had a sterile dial without the arrow...
I hate watches where the manufacturer cant be arsed to brand it. Its an Ali Express parts build.
Disagree. A well made unbranded watch can look classy and minimal.
Murph
I like it, but it looks like a watch that would just sit in my watch drawer honestly.
