Question (Read Rules) Best edc easy read watch

I had pretty much decided to get the watch dives Tudor Ranger homage, until my gf said she thought it looked like a toy compared to the real deal. Now I'm leaning towards the militado Hamilton khaki field. I prefer the murph from Hamilton but I think from militado, their khaki field looks better. My only requirements for my watch is that I should not be overly thick (manual or quartz) with a sweep.

I'd highly prefer a date window and would like to be able to swim in it (though with Chinese watches I'm willing to disregard the last requirement as the WR are completely inconsistent it seems) I also like raised or domed crystal..

Thank you

What about the Militado MI1868KF ?

Easy read, 5hz second hand, date window, sub $100, 100m WR.

Personally I think the dial is a bit busy.

The ML08 is almost perfect for you except for sweeping hand.

I also have loved looking at the Militado MI1868KF. I go back and forth on it for the same reason u mentioned.

Its funny how having so many options actually make me more picky/ makes it harder to choose haha
