    Great review of the MacGyver watch….I’m surprised you didn’t mention that detail. He wore the Timex Camper for the first 3 seasons.

    Indy seems like a bund guy, you can just tell haha! These have always looked good but I have never bought one. I think they might not be the best choice on paper but its a solid choice. Having watched your field watch video I can see why you bought it! Take care Ben!

    Sorry.. did you really pay 76 USD for this watch with plastic case, acrylic crystal, 30 m water resistance, poor lume and no indigo ?
    It’s available for 35USD here in India and I’m not convinced to pull the trigger ! It’s like why should I choose this over many Expeditions in the same price range, but with brass case, possibly mineral crystal and Indiglo ?

      I did indeed, and it was for the retro look. The expeditions don't look as good.

    Typical corners cut. Everyway that they can find to increase their profit margins by lowering manufacturing costs.
    To start with, 30mWR for a field watch!, ridiculous plastic case etc etc. $70! It's a toy.

      Interesting suggestion, but no thanks. 30m water resistance, but it's 5x the cost. No, if i wanted a better plastic quartz field watch, I would get the bertucci dx3 that glows www.watches.com/products/bertucci-dx3-glow-tangerine-11135

      Perhaps... If you know of another 36mm field watch that looks like this for less money, please let me know!
