Forgot to mention that the bracelet tapers from 20mm to 18mm at the clasp. you the replacement clasp you should buy is 18mm.

I am a Vietnam veteran and can tell you that the Captain Willard case was designed to protect the stem from catching on anything while diving or during war activities.

You certainly don't want your watch stem to snag while you're hunting Charlie out in the bush.

Prices are set to go up because Seiko has doubled the prices of their NH35 movement according to another youtube video I saw. There is a possibility that these Chinese brands might switch to the PT5000 movement which is a Chinese clone of the Swiss ETA 2824 and it has received very positive reviews. At the moment the PT5000 movement is slightly more expensive than the NH35, but it is also more accurate.

Microbrands and Chinese brands are swooping in on the NH35. It's their go to movement... So I guess it's nice to see something more interesting..

And yet here we are 9 months later and I just managed to order one during the big AliExpress sale for 72 USD shipped. I'm betting that other channel was either trying FOMO marketing to push affiliate link sales OR extrapolating too much long term info from short term supply chain disruptions caused by the pandemic.

Can you comment on the accuracy over the time you have owned it? How well does the bezel line up and it's operation? Good that you highlight the crown operation in your review. The milled clasp nice addition.. I'd personally opt for a period rubber strap or a Perlon nylon strap would suit it. Thanks good review.

I realize you posted this some time ago, but I have the black and green. Have had them for about 2 and 1 month, respectively. The black is running at +9.8 and the green is running at +3.6, hope this helps. His review is great though and agree with 99% of his comments. I actually like the 2 tone glow, as it is very useful and bright as hell. The clasp is shite, get rubber or leather, looks great.

It's got a 30 dollar mass produced Seiko movement inside. Nobody services them. They just put in a whole new one. And when you look at how much the movement is, how much the tools cost, and how much somebody like Seiko would charge for the privilege outside the warranty period the real question is why not do it yourself?
