Gosh that sticker peel 😍 Congratulations on the new watch! This brand's been on my radar (instagram influence) and it looks really good.

[@SamuelMillsYT]

Ahah thanks, I was taking the first few off and then realised I should give the people what they want

[@joeygreen77]

Thanks for the shout out and congrats on the watch mate. I think these look great. A bit too similar to the Everest for me to pick one up though.

[@SamuelMillsYT]

True, I was torn between the two, but this one appealed that little bit more

[@claytfoster]

Underrated channel, my man! Sharp looking watch, can't wait to see some of the pics on the Insta!

[@SamuelMillsYT]

Cheers clay! I took one today so that’ll be out soon

Great initial review of a great watch. I currently have the Smith's Navigator PRS-48 black dialed version which I really love but am also considering the Commando because I like the hands better than the ones on the Everest PRS-25. i have the Lorier Flacon II which is comparable to the Commando in size and movement but I have to say that the crown on the Lorier is wonderful and a pleasure to operate. Enjoy and look forward to your in depth review.

Not quite sure what you mean when you say the original dial didn't have Commando at 6 o'clock. Nearly all pictures I've seen of the vintages ones in fact do, although I have seen photos of the 1969 version lacking the Commando name on the dial. It may be that there is a difference between those and the ones sold in 1971/72.

Maybe, this is an old video so honestly I don’t remember

Thank you for the review! I recently discovered the smiths Everest and your video is making me consider buying one! I’ve heard buying from timefactor is pretty tricky, any advice on that? Thanks!

[@SamuelMillsYT]

Just be sure you’re there at the open, (normally 4pm on a Sunday) and try and get your order in ASAP and just hope I suppose. If you sign up for the mailing list you’ll be notified when then site is opening so that helps

[@piquetuk]

@@SamuelMillsYT 2pm strict on a Sunday in the UK, sign up for news but also you can join on the Timefactors site so they have all your details already which helps. Shop will be shut at 2:03 so be quick. Totally worth the effort by the way, I'm struggling to take my Everest off.

[@SamuelMillsYT]

@@piquetuk oh yeah my mistake, it’s 14:00 not 4pm aha

Great stuff mate, brilliant piece

[@SamuelMillsYT]

Thanks, I'm enjoying it

[@lowersaxon]

For me too small by far. Have heard nothing good regarding water resistance and the bracelet/clasp.

[@deanwaller8283]

Cool story bro 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Leventgursoy11]

I have 40mm version and i bought 2 days ago the new 36mm version of prs25 however i paid x2 money to ebay plus 125pounds import. So Time factors are crazy. They can easily get this money but the others. So from now an I will not buy Time factors product.

[@SamuelMillsYT]

From what I’ve heard the owner doesn’t care about the money, so he just doesn’t release too many at once

[@Leventgursoy11]

@@SamuelMillsYT may be he does not care but I care. I paid 780 eu for used one

[@zaf240489]

@@Leventgursoy11 why did u choose to buy a smith watch at double the price? Weird.

[@ronyho5678]

Please don’t pay what you are not agree or happy with.
