Truth is the Argentinian Army Special Forces wore out the SAS & M&WC in the Battles for Mount Kent & Top Malo House so much so that only 4 men of the M&WC were left operating as an observation post on Smoko Mount & Captain Boswell therefore failed to secure the bridge connecting Fitzroy & Bluff Cove Settlements resulting in the bombing of the Sir Galahad & over 250 British casualties on 8 June when the Welsh Guard arrived only to find their overland route to Stanley Common severed after Argentine Army Combat Engineers blew up a good part of the bridge unmolested on 2 June.

Take a look at the CWC range - used to supply the GB military G10 and the Royal Navy Divers

Great work keep it up

I was involved as RLC support staff with 23 about 15 years ago, I did some hills with the guys and coped well enough but was too old at that point to try selection ( a PSI tried to get me on but those above vetoed it ) If you decide to go for it do not underestimate the task because if you do you will not pass. As a side issue the reserve best suits the unemployed and the self employed if you want to gain a lot out of it. As an ex regular I shot more live ammunition in one weekend with 4Para than I did in ten years in the RAF !

A real patriot!!❤

What an incredible story well told.

Mate... your voice edits ?

I would take my Sinn U50. I have the black PVD coated version and it looks very tacticool. Also, its 500m water resistand. PS: the music was s bit too loud in you video.

Nothing wrong with G Shock

I did 21 SAS Selection in 1960 based then at Dukes Road after 2 years infantry National Service and 18 months RMVR pre N.S. Undoubtably the two weeks Selection was the toughest as every day it was across country navigation over the Brecons and Black Mountains on your jack with footpaths and tracks forbidden with the final exercise at 42 miles. On two of the days my performance was not good but fortunately on the final exercise I came in first really only because I was lucky in not developing knee and ankle problems which most seemed to have. I always regretted resigning but family problems dictated otherwise. I served 5/6 brilliant years! Am sure much has changed since those days but the memories of that Selection Course lives on!

Don't the paras do this in p company now?

The Interrogation team work for DSTO, Not sure what he meant by the joint services interrogation board ?

It’s a Quartz 7548 , the SKX 009 came out in ‘96 . They look very similar especially with the Pepsi bezel

My apocalypse watch would be the Citizen Eco Drive BN0228-6W “Retrozilla.” Multiple strap options, tough titanium case, lightweight, accurate, great bezel, and charges in the sunlight. Ready to run for years on end!

Definitely the most interesting & informative channel in KZbin，and I am your fan！ I’ve been watching MAMACOO and buying them recently to complement my watch collection. Good video

Where can we buy the endurance watch?

Id still go with a casio rangeman (GW-9400)

[Is it not true that our country is run by Islamists? Do we know if our so-called politicians, clergymen, police, judges, lawyers and civil servants, teachers etc are actually Islamists or are beholden to Islam for other reasons? Possible that they believe islam will win and have sold their services to new masters? Is it not true that Khan has links to Islamic Extremists? Starmer says "I will take every step to keep "Rel of Peace" communities safe". Why is he not pledging his loyalty to keep the people of Great Britain safe? Haven't the police shown which side they are on in the recent times with their two tier policing? The king, Starmer, the Church of England, the Armed Forces and Parliament: Do the police and military members not Swear an oath to the King and not the people? How about this... hasn't Charles always been a member of the "Rel of Peace" as didn't Queen Victoria convert to the "Rel of Peace" in regards to her relationship with Abdul Karim? If so, could all her descendants be secret Members of the "Rel of Peace" using taqiyya which is the action of committing a sinful act (such as feigning unbelief/lying) for a pious goal. Hiding one's beliefs has been a feature of Islam since its earliest days, and is acknowledged by "Rel of Peace" members of virtually all persuasions. Plus the decline of the strength and commitment to the Church of England by the royal family, The Prime Ministers and Parliament? Why has the church been promoting the "Rel of Peace" and selling our churches to the Rel of peace to be converted into mosques? Is it because Queen Victoria converted to Islam and as the head of the Church of England, didn't she and Abdul plan to slowly but surely convert everyone in her realm to Islam and the land into an islamic state? Aren't all these questions not plausible?]

Just buy a casio, pfffff just a to expence piece of watch.

Dude, I think in the end you'll come back to the G-Shock Solar--these things last forever with zero maintenance. Most automatics (especially Seiko!) will go bad relatively early on compared to a tough solar. I've been a Seiko fan boy for 30 years and have old and new Rolex subs but would never consider these apocalypse watches.

Hey mate can you recommend and hills close or around London/Essex with high elevation to train on or anywhere drivable?

Seiko "Capt. Willard" deserves to be on this list. Can't get more Apocalyptical than Apocalypse Now! LOL! But seriously, this watch design is iconic, and unexpectedly comfortable. So adaptable whether for scuba diving, or infantry combat. It's turtle case, 4 o'clock protected crown, and super legible indices. After all these decades, inspecting the watch's details reveals what a thoroughly thought out design Seiko created. I love my Capt. Willard, and it's one of my favorites in my collection.

Let’s gooo man

Ferdi, your channel has inspired me (and I'm sure many others) to get out into the hills. Appreciate the effort you put into. You'll be at 10k subs in no time.

Gosh I haven’t been to Box Hill in decade or so

Love your channel.. Really inspirational. Totally focused on Weekend 9 for me after a spectacular fail this year. Came away thinking at 58 I should maybe look at something more sedate , naah booked on Festive 50 and off we go. 👍👍👊👊 Keep it up the good work.

What weight were you guy's carrying? was it the same as the fan dance?

That does sound rough as fuck to be fair, no wonder rhe brotish army is the elite and feared world wide….. any training course which included having to be in Scotland for any more than a day never mind patrol in the place around the ginger piss stained rangers fans, just shows how harsh it must have been and so hard to complete if you weren’t a complete mental case

Theres actually a coffee company in south wales that named a product after this test march, Beacons coffee company, Endurance.

Been in the relentless heat and humidity of Georgia USA so long I have yearning for the cool of the Breacons lol

I did it and when you get to the final check point they tell you the wagon has not turned up and you have to march another 5 miles. Many refuse and get kicked out but the wagon is round the corner out of sight. I passed.

In the video you said for the basic training for the army reserve its a 27 day training plus a 2 week course, but then you said that to qualify as a army reserve it will take in total 6-12months then you can start 21/23 sas selection? 27 day and 2 weeks but takes 6-12months in total, pls clarify...

Imagine condensation in that .

They were brought together for battle replacements.

Yeah G Shock solar would cover everything. Longevity, upgradability and small/light. Being into modding watches you can upgrade to sapphire crystal and stronger housing if necessary ect and 10+ year longevity. Citizen are ok but a lot of the best of the best use G Shock. Great video though, thumbs up!

Congratulations on your 2 k Subs brother 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙👹💥💥💥GTC

My late father served in Malaya 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🙏He was 16 Independent Airborne Brigade 💙 it was then formed into 5 Airborne brigade for my time in 1 Para in the 1980,s then back to 16 Air Assault Brigade 🇬🇧✌️History repeats itself 👹✌️GTC

I can’t afford a real Captain Willard so I bought a cheap Chinese “homage”; a Heimdallr Sharkie. Remarkably, it’s a pretty tough watch. Same goes for my Steeldive SD1953 (Rolex submariner homage). Pretty tough for the price. Either way, I enjoy them as beaters and just for fun. Now my Apocalypse watch would probably be either my Citizen divers, my Seiko Arnie or my G Shock original Rangeman.

Thank You . This was info I was looking for.

Definitely the most interesting & informative channel in KZbin，and I am your fan！ I’ve been watching AMZWATCH and buying them recently to complement my watch collection. Good video

Think to do 21/23 you really need to be self employed and able to take a lot of time off or having a ridiculously understanding employer. Having a full time job and family life alongside the time commitment for SF reserves is a cocktail for failure. But suppose the mindset for those who pass is different to most.

Interesting video. In the 1980s survival training courses were a big thing, and they were at least fifty survival/ adventure courses available, run mostly by ex paratroopers, ex marine commandos, and ex special forces. There was a magazine called SWAT ( survival, weapons, and tactics) which came out monthly with lists of these courses. Is there a list today on one website of military adventure courses available in the U.K./ Europe ?

A mechanical watch? Don't make me laugh. It's so obviously a solar G-Shock lol.

The Seiko 6r35 movement as found in the new Willard is not vey accurate and can behave very erratically, also crap magnetic resistance. Can I assume that the apocalypse also affects Watches of Switzerland? If so I'll be going down there and looting everything they've got so no issues about a watch being tough enough to withstand the coming dystopian future. So what if my Breguet breaks I'll just get another one out of the sack.

No G-Shocks ? All you need is one G-Shock solar for your life !

Are the Womans Royal Auxiliary Balloon Corp running any event this year?..... asking for a friend.

Well done mate, and thankyou! 👍
