Love the comparisons, always good to see what your money is getting you. Great vid! Awesome to see the new stuff getting covered by you as well as always.

I do like that colorway and the rivet-style bracelet. Seems like a winner to me.

I like the 38mm-39mm case bezel size. Dive watches look big without having a large case size. Nice

Really like the colour scheme on the militado I don’t know much about the Thorn brand but the Militado range seems to cater for everyone great comparison video

Thorn is the better option in my opinion even though it seems like the same factory made these watches Thanks for sharing another killer review my friend Be well and Stay Frosty 👍

Nice, I'm looking for a BB58 for next sale. But Thorn with lower price and ceramic wins for me so far. Too bad no one does ceramic red bezel version.

The Militado bezel insert is brushed ceramic, not aluminum--although it does look like aluminum in some lighting; the lume on mine is a little 'patchy,' the hour hand is brighter than the minute and second hands and the bezel triangle and pip aren't what they should be. On a positive note, mine is running within COSC and it is a very good looking watch overall. If they evened out the handset lume and gave it a double-domed crystal it would be an exceptional watch instead of a good value for money piece.

I have the Thorn black ceramic bezel shown in the thumbnail. I bought it because its size was spot on, many others are too large and too thick. Initially I was disappointed with its timekeeping and wondered whether it actually has a nh35 in it. but over the past few months it has settled down and now runs as expected. I would prefer if it had a date and its shame its a sterile crown and case back. Its a typical Ali Express parts bin watch with only the dial logo and name added.

Nice watch with room for improvement with the crown and clasp function as you indicated. The watch as it is made now without changes in my opinion is not to exceed $95 Thank you for your channel and reviews. I prefer to stay mainly with San Martin and watches and pay an extra $120 or so..

You spoke of changing the clasp. Can you recommend a place/seller to buy good quality clasps from?

Thanks for the great comparison. They both make killer watches for the money. Thorn definitely takes this one though.

Hi Zee thanks for the video. It’s a shame that the Militado has a charcoal bezel. I thought it might’ve made a decent BB58 monochrome homage. I’ll have to look elsewhere such as Corgeut or San Martin.

The charcoal isn't that bad, black under most lighting but in the sun you get it. San martin / watchdives are a good alternative

My honest question is, which brand is NOT making a Tudor homage these days....? It's (nowadays) like it used to be with the Sub homages. "Big" or "small" brands, all have one. Anyways... Be well Zeb, hope you're getting some relaxing holidays. Cheers.

Numbers should be slightly larger on the bezel maybe? Look out of proportion sadly.

@kieranpyne3271 2 ай бұрын

Ceramic bezel would have been top drawer! I see one of the comments says it is a brushed ceramic bezel. Can you check this out please? On The Militado site it says the bezel is ceramic matte black or grey!
