I have a Timex weekender chrono, that I picked up for $49.00. I think that is about $10 less than Amazon sells them for. A great watch for the money. I love the fact that the second hand works with the chrono, and there is a sub-dial that runs the seconds full time. Mine has a green face and a tan leather NATO strap. Great little beater watch. I received a Timex as my first watch when I was in the third grade, and I’m 66 now. It still runs and keeps good time despite the fact that I wore it thru about 10 years of lawn care as a kid. Timex really does take a licking and keeps on ticking.

I have just bought one for £100 and I am so happy with my decision. I'm 40 and barely ever wear a watch lol But for some reason Field Watches have captivated me? I don't have the patience or ironically time for a Mechanical watch. Plus I live a massively active lifestyle that involves Calisthenics, Mountain biking, camping and in general busy life. I don't think an automatic or mechanical would last long lol Solar for me is the way forward. Also happy to have a standard quartz.

They make awesome titanium case watches with solid spring bars and a raised rim around the crystal for protection. They also have great customer service. They need a review.

I have mostly vintage and reissue watches. My favourite field watch is a commemorative 1945- 1985, ' 40 years of peace' , Vostok Komandurskie Zakaz, handwound and hacking. 38 mm case. Made in 1985. Beautifully engraved caseback and the lume is still working. I paid £50 about 2 years ago. My other field watch is a Sea-gull automatic green dial. 44mm and a Sapphire chrystal. It's a 1964 reissue and has a tank engraved on the caseback. 50m water resistant. Great lume on the massive hands especially.

Great review and recommendations. I love a good field watch as mine from the boy scouts was my first watch ever. Really good selection and I must say that the Defender is the first Orient watch that has ever appealed to me. With regards to the 'honorable mentions', Good news in that Timex now offers the Expedition with a solar movement. I've already ordered mine with a field green dial and orange accents for $61 from Amazon. I thoroughly enjoy the watch of the month reviews and am looking forward to next months. For my 2 cents you might review the Timex flyback chrono in Tan and Black. Cheers!

Thanks for this review, I enjoyed it very much and found it informative. (Thumbs up) Over here in the UK I've found it pretty difficult to source reasonably priced watches of any type let alone field watches and ordering from the US is a nightmare of price difference, customs/import charges and "VAT" ...it seems to be "an issue". I did however source two very low priced but interesting field watches that I now own and love (despite their cheap Seiko subsidiary quartz movements): the Lorus "Sports Lumibrite" and its brother (/sister) "Titanium". The Lumibrite features a sand-blasted SS case and back with a fully lumed dial (...all over!) with a day/date complication. The Titanium has lumed hands only and just a date complication but the case and back are made of sand blasted titanium. Both have mineral crystals and are rated to 200m water resistance. Price here in UK for the Sports Lumibrite is currently around £30 ($40) and the Titanium: £55 ($72)

@@JusttheWatch Yeah! Solid links, but not solid end links. I really don't know why Seiko wouldn't ditch the folded links already. They seem to be the rare ones still doing that even for their 150+USD watches. I saw a 200USD Seiko 5 watch ih a boutique couple of days ago with folded links bracelet. On the other hand I bought a Cadisen c1033 (beautiful sunburst green dial) 70+USD six months ago and even that one had solid links and milled clasp. Defender's clasp is not milled, only pressed. But what's good and looks like quality is that both the bracelet and the watch are really heavy. I mean I know that the bracelet gives it weight, but the watch itself is kind of heavy. Which is great for an everyday tool watch (especially for a guy like myself that doesn't really like divers).

As for the higher tear, I'd say the Citizen Chandler. Otherwise, there are a couple Ali-X watches that have a Seiko Meca-quartz movement. Just can't remember which ones they were.

I purchased #PD-2720k for $42.65 (with coupon code at the time). It's sporting a Seiko Meca-Quartz, so the quality of the movement is not in question!!

I own 5 Vostoks and love them, but, I wouldn't recommend a Komandierskie to anyone ! The 40hr hand winding with the wobbly crown will drive people CRAZY ! The auto Amphibia is the only sensible choice, especially for only US$60 !!

Dude automatic watches are a pain in the ass if your sleeping in the bush for 28 days, that's the last thing on your mind is making sure your watch is wound enough. Field watches need to be set it and forget it, durable and very legible with clear numbers and a good durable strap. Thanks for the vid

I have a Komandeirskie - really like the watch as a cheap and cheerful everyday watch. A good price (mine was about $30) and keeps decent time, but the standard strap is awful - easy to replace with a cheap third party one of course. I also have a Vaer Heritage Dark - fantastic watch - well built and lume that lasts all night. I like the Vaer so much, I've worn it non-stop since I got it. It comes with a couple of straps as standard and is a bit of a strap monster - goes well with plenty of third party straps.

Yeah, Bulova and Ciizen both make some great Chronographs. Hard to find them under $120, but if you see one let me know, otherwise they'll probably be some in the unofficial "gold" tier.

Do you think the timex weekender can be used as a Field watch? It has both military time and normal digits has indiglo if it doesn’t count as a field watch I’ll buy the expedition scout but really think the weekender fits the mold also the gshock day-5600-E ?

Boldr "only 38mm" A traditional field watch should be on the smaller end as I believe. 40 and over is to big for a field watch for many wrists. But that said, a lot of people seem to like watches that look too big. And the ... get used to it... doesn't count imo. Because that's the thing... you just get used to it. It's still too big!

What's the reason for a screw down crown?
@JusttheWatch
@JusttheWatch 5 жыл бұрын
It helps with keeping water out and makes sure that the crown doesn't pop out under water. It's pretty much necessary to accomplish 200m of water resistance.

Yeah even at that price range there's not really any other automatic field watches that compare to it. The closet would be the Orient Defender, but that's another $20-$40 more expensive.
