Watch Mil-Tec Army Retro Pilot Quartz Watch - Black

I have been using it for two years. Everything works flawlessly. The strap is thick, strong, and there are no signs of wear. The battery is the same from the beginning. Personally, I am very satisfied with the appearance – the design is great. I recommend it!

This is a very nice and comfortable watch. I've had it for over a year now, and during this time, I've noticed only one drawback – the pins in the strap are weak and often need to be replaced with new ones.

A solidly made, massive watch with a noticeable leather strap on the wrist. The case is intentionally aged, styled to look like patina, which makes it resemble watches from years ago – the kind you might find in your grandfather’s drawer, although not necessarily from military times. This is an interesting choice for fans of military or vintage vibes. Only the seconds hand movement, typical of quartz watches, hints that it’s a modern model. The large crown is very comfortable to use. The watch arrives with the crown pulled out, which stops the mechanism and saves battery. The dial is easy to read – as expected from a pilot watch, regardless of price range. The hands glow in the dark, but there is no luminous paint on the dial anymore. The mechanism is unknown, probably designed in Japan and made in China, but only a watchmaker could confirm this. The watch works accurately, without any issues. It's good to remember that Mil-Tec is a military gear brand, not a watchmaker, so they use inexpensive components and do not produce their own German movements. The watch is splash resistant as described (30M); washing hands or brief immersion caused no problems, and no moisture appeared under the glass. In the up to 300 PLN range, it's a very solid choice, though if you can spend over a thousand, I recommend considering the classic Laco Flieger B with a similar style but better quality. For me, to use outdoors, it’s not worth investing more in something that can be easily damaged.
