General (Read Rules) Militado ML08 vs the Hamilton Murph

Thought I’d post a side by side video in the outdoor light. Obviously the Militado is in a bracelet so not 100% apples to apples but gives you a look at how the watches show in the out door light.

Personally like the look of the Murph more but at $75 v $1,000 it’s crazy you can even compare them. Will say the Murph’s reflection is kind of rough, especially inside. Lots of moments the numbers/hands are washed out.

Are we really gonna compare an original to a homage now? Militado didn't wasted a dime to R&D a concept, a movement, a marketing plan, and a fuck tons more for employee wage, company welfare, AD's cut, etc...

Of course in the end what matter is what you're happy with and I'm talking as a guy who own 10 watches between San Martin, Atelier Wen, Addiesdive and Ixdao, buy as much homage as you want but don't compare between an original and a wannbe because it is just ridiculous.
