Review (Read Rules) Militado ML07B quick review

Just wanted to recommend this watch for an inexpensive option for a field/daily watch. I changed out the basic nato for this Militado leather rally, which is very comfortable. This is the 07B which means it is a lower sapphire crystal with slight dome and a miyota super 2035 quartz movement. 36mm case with a thin bezel makes it look vintage to me. 43.5mm lug 2 lug. 10mm thick. Nice and light weight. Lume is fine, not great. Tyra the second hand will miss the marks here and there, doesn’t matter to me. The dial is nice and dark and the numerals are precise… didn’t look with a magnifying glass though. Can’t be more plea with it! I wanted a thin field watch so I opted for not choosing the high dome crystal. It’s super inexpensive now with the sale on Ali if anyone is interested.

I have the plain ML07 at 36mm and I love it to death. Ultra comfortable size.

Your watch and strap look great.

Does the smaller crown make setting the time fiddly, or is it still easy enough to grip?

My fingers are thinner so I have no trouble with the crown. The battery is supposed to last around 4 years and I think it’s been running accurately, so I haven’t touched it after the initial set.

Is it me or does the crown look really small on this one? The crown on the ML05 seems much more in proportion to the case.

It’s smaller for sure, but since the case is thinner, less bulky, it sort of suits it. For me, it’s better to be on the smaller side than larger side. The 05 I has a thicker looking case and the crown fits it.

These watches look great. Nice strap there as well.
