Bertucci DX3: Ultimate Field Watch under $70?

[@MichaelTravis12c27]

I’ve had a few of those. My son appropriated my black one and I gave the other one to a friend. I have one of the higher end titanium versions so they didn’t get much wrist time. That said, the are fantastic watches. Bertucci sells a ton of different configurations ands straps. They also have a rubber “shield” for extreme environments. It just threads into the strap and conforms to the watch head. They are a great company.

Good info...I didn't know they have such a wide range of options. Thanks for sharing.

Probably one of the best non Aliexpress affordable Field Watch makers out there. Thanks!

[@Realidealgear]

Glad you like it. It is an affordably priced model. So far so good for my experience.

[@johanvandersandt8904]

I like these Bertucci watches! They are awesome! This seems like a proper tool watch at an affordable price! Never seen that stitching on a nato strap before. Great review Tim!

[@Realidealgear]

That stitching is very unique and such a simple retention system. Thank you! Have a great week Johan

These are fantastic tactical field watches... Great review...

[@Realidealgear]

Thank you. It is that for sure.

[@ercanbanka5377]

yeah it's a great looking tactical field watch , if the enemy is approaching you , you can see exactly what time it is before you die .

Very nice looking field watch. Great review.

[@Realidealgear]

Thanks for watching!

I bought this exact watch about 4 years ago. The battery died and I carefully popped the case back off and the seal just disintegrated. Furthermore, the metal holder for the battery snapped when gently attempting to release the old battery. At that point I said, forget it and now it sits in my watch repair/parts box. I won't buy another and can't recommend the brand even though I own another version in camo. I feel like there are MUCH better options at this price. Great review!

[@Realidealgear]

Thank you. Unfortunate experience. I agree on the better options available in the same price range.

To loosen up the strap, I hooked the strap to the button hole on a pair of jeans and put it in the wash machine with the rest of my laundry. A good wash and through the dryer did the trick, it's a lot more supple and comfortable.

[@Realidealgear]

Great idea. Thanks for sharing.

[@torgomax]

Thanks for the info on the strap.. i,'ll give that a try👍

[@WUDN-WatchUDontNeed]

Love the outdoor footage, as I have said for other videos… I love this watch, but every time I see a watch like this I think about marathon watches: the super tough super accurate, super everything watches, and I think “ should I save to buy one of those“? Now they’re even20% off because of the black Friday thing… nonetheless, this is a really cool review of a very cool watch! Thank you!

[@WUDN-WatchUDontNeed]

Also… that black Lamy fountain pen… sweet!

[@Realidealgear]

Marathon makes some great watches...I'm interested for the tritium. Thanks for watching.

[@Realidealgear]

I'm a fountain pen fan...so much so that I bought a jar of ink and refill the Lamy about every 3-4 weeks.

[@torgomax]

I,m thinking about getting a Marathon navigator tritium watch⌚👀

[@Realidealgear]

Great watch, I’m very interested in that as well.

[@robbied4766]

It's a nice watch! I so wish Field watch categories were a minimum 100m but I guess, ideally, you wouldn't be swimming!

[@Realidealgear]

Agreed on the 100m WR for field watches. For me, it's the peace of mind of not worrying about any water issues. I prefer to have that concern erased from my conscious while wearing a 100m WR watch. Have a great week.

[@lawrence-ec5dm]

I have a boderry watch very similar but has Nh35 movement sapphire glass,100m water resistant screw down crown same strap all for £69.

[@Realidealgear]

Now that's something I could get behind. What model?

Outstanding! Let me know how it goes.

Looks like Timex todd snaider. Which prefer?

[@Realidealgear]

Thanks

[@LuisFlores-cx8bo]

This model 39 mm size?

[@Realidealgear]

40mm diameter is what I recall and 50m WR
