Carnival Tritium Quartz Military Watch 8638G: My final thoughts

Hello guys! So what do I think about the Carnival Tritium watch? It's definitely a keeper. Enjoy the video.

Love your reviews NM! Keep it up!

[@NMwatch]

Thanks a lot man!

[@thedollars922]

Nope. Cannot see a thing the lume haha

[@NMwatch]

Trust me, I've tried to get a decent shot. But it's there bro. It really glows well in the dark. My shitty camera won't catch it though. Ha ha ha!

[@demej00]

Not really a sapphire crystal is it? I think it is Hardlex which is superior to mineral but not as hard as sapphire. It may be better than sapphire though as it is less prone to shattering.

[@NMwatch]

Hey man. Had mine for more than 2 years, without any scratches yet. Definitely not sapphire crystal but for the money, it's ok. Thanks for watching 😎

[@demej00]

@@NMwatch This is my next watch. Thanks.

[@NMwatch]

They are selling under USD50 now. Such a bargain 😎

[@demej00]

@@NMwatch I can buy it here for 278rmb or $41.50 which is a no brainer. If I scratch the crystal I will replace myself with a sapphire one. And I will replace band with leather or NATO. Perfect.

Check out " Wyman's Corner of the world" review of this watch - he managed some great lume shots ;)

[@NMwatch]

Will get to it. Thanks for watching bro 👍

This watch has lume tubes but they are not Tritium. You have to charge these tubes just like you have to charge the painted-on lume. If this watch was Tritium and a Carnival it would cost somewhere around $400.00, not $69.00 and you wouldn't ever need to charge it. It would glow for 25 years on its own.

Hello there. I've owned this watch for almost 2 years now, and I can assure you that it has Tritium tubes. It's just that they are no longer sold on AliExpress. The ones that is listed now are just using C3 superluminova and cost less than 50 bucks. Mine was about USD90. Thanks for watching 😎

@@NMwatch Ah that explains why I got one for around $30 today with coupons (I live in Hong Kong). Still happy. Bought the white dial version to be a quartz beater that isn't a G-Shock :P

[@brilliantradience]

Is the company owned by Citizen?, too reflective for a military watch, should've been brushed.

[@NMwatch]

Well the body of the watch are almost fully brushed. The bracelet is too shiny though. And no, they're definitely Chinese company. Thanks for watching

[@brilliantradience]

NMwatch yeah I might be confusing them with Caravelle or something like that, it looks pretty shiny on camera but still cool regardless.

[@cb3391]

Change the battery plea se

[@NMwatch]

Hey man. It is still ticking even today. I might make a video when I change the battery on this watch. When the time comes, that is. Thanks for watching 👍

[@muradmxd]

Hey. How about accuracy? Within one month, for example, what is the error?

[@NMwatch]

I've never really checked the accuracy of any of my watches tbh. I've owned it for the past 6 months, and it never showed anything weird. But I'll update you on the accuracy in maybe after a month. Thanks for watching!

[@NMwatch]

Hey man. The accuracy after a month is about +2 seconds. Hope it helps

[@muradmxd]

@@NMwatch wow, I think it is very accurate. Breitling have an accuracy of about 10 seconds per year, have a super quartz mechanism and cost 5 thousand dollars, and carnival accuracy is 24 seconds per year. Amazing. Thank you for remembering to check and answer!

[@NMwatch]

@@muradmxd yes. I'm amazed with the accuracy too. We'll have to judge in the long term though. Thanks for watching!

[@JayWatches852]

@@muradmxd 24 seconds a year, your math was off

[@photorolensoman8101]

Nice watch but to bad it's only 3 ATM

[@NMwatch]

Yeah, but it's good for daily use. Thanks for watching!
