[@bb3866]

Heading to a local 5-11 store now to buy one now. Thanks for the review

[@IrishZombieNation]

Thanks for watching!

[@outdoorsmansgarage]

I really don't wear watches too much anymore but that one is actually pretty nice I might have to get back into wearing watches now

[@IrishZombieNation]

If that's what you took away from watching this video then I feel I have done my job properly. Much appreciated my friend! Thanks for watching and commenting. Sláinte!

[@Mr.Mahabh]

I just bought one from a 5.11 store in Yemen... So far so good

[@IrishZombieNation]

It's a great watch!

[@elcuervonegro]

Nice video hermano. I have a Casio DW5600MS-1CR GForce Military Concept Black. It’s a digital watch with a black background. I like it but the black background makes it hard to see the time without having to press the light. I may consider this one. Mostly because I like the canvas straps haha

[@IrishZombieNation]

Thanks brother! Hope you had a great Christmas and a better new year. Sláinte!

Nice watch and review brother. Quite the accomplishment on your 10 large in subs coming up. Thanks for sharing and ATB Mike!!

[@IrishZombieNation]

Thank you my friend! Much appreciated! When I hit the 10K mark be sure to look out for a hell of a good giveaway. Appreciate you watching!

Good watch. I saw one of these watches at the FRC shooting range.

[@IrishZombieNation]

It's good quality and gets the job done. Appreciate you watching, and thanks for the comment.

Fabulous review, thanks!

Thanks for watching!

[@craigbetts1586]

that's a cool watch but I don't need one right now my good old victorinox swiss army has been my go to for over 20 years, wishing you and your family a Happy New Years and say hi to Scotty too

[@IrishZombieNation]

Any watch I've had for 20 years would be my go-to as well. I'm sure that's one hell of a good time piece you got with some good stories behind it. Thanks for watching Craig. Happy New Year to you and yours as well. I'll let Scotty know you said hi. Sláinte!

@@IrishZombieNation I have a couple dresser ones but for everyday use it's my old friend and your right on the luminescence not lasting long, same on this one too

[@coryames1170]

Ooh another IZN video, Ooh a new watch. That's a good combo. I'm like you Leo in that I feel naked without a watch.👍 Lately I've been rotating through my G-Shocks. first.

[@IrishZombieNation]

Thanks for tuning in my friend. I haven't had a G-Shock it over 20 years. Rugged-ass time pieces. Hope him is well with you good sir! Sláinte!

Great video brah 💪🏻 not only you reviewed the watch , you also showed the 2 best ways on wearing a NATO 👍 I’m ordering the watch soon enough .. but it’s going to be the 5.11 Tactical with the all yellow date calendar .. it’s almost the same , little different though .. with Swiss Movement and 24mm NATO If you like military field style watches like I do , take a look at Bertucci watches based in Chicago or MWC ( Military Watch Company ) from Germany... really quality and sturdy tool watches between 300 to 500 bucks , and they come with NATO straps also ! Peace ✌️

[@IrishZombieNation]

Excellent! Thanks for the suggestion, and thanks for watching!

[@nicodutch5859]

How is a watch that needs another watch to set up tactical? In this day and year a watch is tactical when it tells not only time and day but also tells you if it is accurate. I only wear watches that self synchronize via GPS and/or atomic clock radio signal. The conventional watch tells an approximate time which could be accurate but probably makes you miss the bus or train. So I'm very happy with the Casio BW5600 unit which runs forever and tells time accurately and tells if it is synchronized so I can trust the time.

[@IrishZombieNation]

That's a very narrow-minded and somewhat elitist view of watches. That's something I never thought I'd say to someone. Lol. Most watches do not come with a GPS or atomic clock synchronization. As far as tactical goes, the name of the company is 5.11 Tactical. This is their Field Watch 2.0. The field watch is a design that many companies make, and has been used by the military for a very long time due to its simplicity and accuracy. Thanks for watching.

[@desertsoldier41]

Any quartz watch will be only 10 seconds off a month. I wear a Hamilton Mechanical that is +2 seconds per day. This 5.11 is a nice legible field watch. Also your Casio is no longer going to have a time signal soon, the NST towers have been defunded. Gshock digitals are great but it can't tell you compass directions because it has no hands to do the old boy scout trick.

[@grey.god.x]

How durable is it? I do flooring for a living and get pretty dirty??

[@valeriimeln]

How many clicks does this bezel have? I've purchased this watch couple of days ago and counted 90 clicks

[@jameswekulo1318]

How many years does the battery last

[@IrishZombieNation]

The battery that came with it is still going haven't had to replace it yet so it's been about two and a half years. I'm guessing it's either a 3 year or 5 year battery.

[@jameswekulo1318]

[@whysoserious13218]

not Scratch/chip resistant mineral crystal display ... sadly

[@luktish]

Anyone knows how to adjust time on this watch?

[@IrishZombieNation]

It works the same way as most old-school analog watches. Pull the rotating dial on the right side of the watch out all the way. It clicks into two different configurations. If you pull it out halfway you can change the date, if you pull it all the way you can change the time. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

[@silverrain99205]

Coming from a Nixon Regulus this is a major downsize to me.

[@IrishZombieNation]

Two completely different watches. I don't get your point.
