Affordable but very nice Militado ML5 field watch

A few quick shots of my new Militado ML5 field watch. Sapphire with clear AR, Seiko VH31 module with 2 hz movement, screw-down crown, 100m WR and this all for 47 USD incl. all taxes. I have asked for version with arrow on the dial but have received one without. On the other hand mine has drilled lugs which none I have seen have. I have replaced cheap nato strap with para elastic strap. Let's see how it will feel after some time. So far I am really happy with this purchase.

Nice! The strap looks great too!

Nice watch. Considering picking up one of these up. Would you recommend them based on your experience or should I get something else for the same price? My hesitation comes from the fact I haven’t heard of much of the brand nor are there long term reviews on the products from Militado.

I have this watch a bit over a week so hardly long-term experience. However I realy like it. Crystal is beautiful and it has very nice clear AR coating. I got lucky and mine still runs a fraction of second slow. I have already put it under the microscope and there are some flaws but hey I paid under 50 USD and finishing is better than 500 USD Seiko, not to mention spec. I am really satisfied.
