Finally a video where the watch choices are diverse, most videos tend to list the same boring watches. Again nicely done, very informative, and the research is all there! A+
Hi Jody i have a Seiko with a 7S26 I have owned it for 18years and it has never been opened and after all this time it works exactly as it did at new , the Swiss boys are put to shame in someway by Seiko 👌
JUST getting into watches and I have isolated your’s as one of the more helpful channels. Thank you so much for having such a passion for what you do and making information as accessible and understandable as you do. I’ll be floating around your comments section, brother. Thanks again!
This channel is one of the best for someone looking for a quality bargain watch. I like that you introduce cool new watches not yet popular by other reviewers.
Have the Guanqin myself on a bond nato, and a Seiko snk8. Also owned 2 Vostok Amphibias. There’s no one better on RUclips when it comes to affordable pieces than Jody!
I work in a hospital boiler room and before this I worked in the engine room of a US Navy ship. Most common watches we wore were Casio or Timex. Timex analogs match my style taste and price. Digital I can go for either Casio or Timex. They have some dress up digitals and some rugged sports digitals. While visiting Odessa Ukraine in 1995 I bought a Vostok. It worked well but I no longer have it. Fell into hard times after leaving the Navy and pawned off that watch.
Mate, great video, how can one man share so much knowledge about watches with not so much as a hint of snobbery or “my dad’s bigger than your dad”. Please keep it this way.
I realized after watching this again, this was one of the first JOMW videos I watched when I started collecting. I now own almost every watch on this list! 😀
It was love at first sight: the Wenger Field Classic, brown dial blue numbers. Yet, every time I watch your videos and want one it is nowhere to be found. I've searched for hours and come to the conclusion that they only made one such item and it was scarfed up immediately. Thanks, Jody, I had to settle for a bottle of Scotch daily since.
YESSSS! This is the type of video that got me hooked on your channel! I'm looking for a G-Shock 5600 as my next purchase. I'll say having owned both Casios and Timexes, I'll go Casio all day. My Timex field watch lost its seal and fogged up after a dunk in the pool, without ever opening the case! My fav all time budget Casio is the now discontinued W-71. I don't know why they don't still make it. Unlike the often talked about F-91W, it shows the day and date with month. It's a much better look IMHO. And 10 bucks! Keep it up Jody, love your stuff.
You really did your research...I was on a budget at the time I saw this vid and I bought a weekender and the casiden and they still work perfect... Thank you, your channel is great (definetely deserves more subs).
Just watched this Jody, I don’t want to sound like a snob as I personally wouldn’t buy any of these but it’s nice to know that; 1) There’s watches out there that are actually decent for £50 2) I’d definitely pick any one of these over any so called ‘fashion’ watches e.g. Daniel Wellington. 3) It’s nice to know that there’s a RUclipsr out there than can review anything from Omega to a Chinese watch.
Awesome collection of watches near $50 dollars. Of course I love the green Seiko 5 and I own one. The Casio with the seal strap looked fantastic! I'm not into the digital watches too much but the last Casio wasn't bad. I also bought one of the Vostok watches. Love that as well. Nice variety Jody.
Only if they improve the luminescence. I wore mine for a week, but was frustrated not being able to read the time in the dark. Anyone want to buy a cheap Duro?
I ended up buying a Casio Duro as a result of your old video and TGV raving about it and was not disappointed. Not the easiest watch to find in the UK hence why I ended up importing from the U.S.A. but worth the inconvenience. I wear it on the apparently unfashionable Casio metal bracelet but it's my "go to" beater and appears pretty much indestructible. I also have the Seiko 5 SNK which is an unbelievable watch for the money. Love the channel and please keep going on the cheap Chinese watch vids!
I gotta tell you that your channel is quickly becoming one of my favorites and I've already loaded up my 2019 list of watches to buy with a bunch of your suggestions. I love that you're down to Earth and not a watch snob. I myself would rather have a wide variety of watches to pick from than 2 or 3 really expensive watches to alternate through. Keep up the great work!!!
Great video. I may have to spring on one of these for my 12 year old son. I'll have to check them all out. Maybe even a beater for me. Can't wait to see the next roundup.
I'm an archaeologist and do a lot of fieldwork. I have a number of mechanical field watches (including SKX007 and Vostok Amphibia) but the SNK809 lives on my wrist due to its perfect size, recessed crown at 4, bracelet and day/date complications. I love my SKX but the SNK trumps it as an everyday practical field watch, as I don't notice it is there until I need it.
I have the Guanqin. Bought it while I was watching your review of it. It’s lasted me years! Granted, it’s an occasional wear, but when I wear it, I’m not exactly babying it. I’ve smacked it against door frames and on my desk at work. Still holding up.
Just found your channel. Of all of the watch channels RUclips dropped on me after I did a search on a watch I was interested in, yours is the only one I subscribed to. Ive always been interested in Ali Express but always too leary of buying anything there. You make it look promising. Nice channel.
This is by far the best watch channel on RUclips. You don't just focus on the expensive watches, and appreciate the good cheaper watches that are available out there from the likes of AliExpress and Gearbest.
A very nicely curated collection of high value wrist watches. I must be your target market because I already own three of them: a Timex Weekender Chrono, a Seiko SNK805 and a paratrooper model Komandirskie. Thanks for another entertaining video!
Yet again I am knocked on my arse, I mean who knew??? Not me but I sure do now. It’s 01:20 here in England and just binged on you (getting a little Carry On there) for a few hours and all the better for it! Bought a couple as I watched so alls well I guess? Nice one Jody
Great job man! Great information and presentation. I have the Casio Duro, Guanqin GJ16034, and two of the Starkings. Not bad at all, keep up the spectacular work.
I've been subscribed to your channel and almost binge watching your videos for about two weeks now. I love your no nonsense style of presentation and the amount of information you somehow manage to share in each video without having it feel overwhelming. I'm a beginning watch collector (I actually yet have to start my collection) but a long time enthusiast. This is without a doubt one of the best channels out there!
A quick look on the Starking watch online with the Chinese movement shows they work well - if you get a good one. Otherwise, there could be major problems. Apparently the company has good customer service according to the reviews though, but it's still a time cost. The watch itself is nice though (looking at this video). Based on another of Jody's videos, I got the white Cadisen C1032 from AliExpress.Took a week to arrive & cost me £36 in the September '19 sale only last week - thanks for pointing that out Just One More Watch. Excellent.
Bought a Komanderskie in 2015 for under $20. Put it on a cheap metal mesh band and it looked pretty cool. Gave it to a friend who I knew would either lose or destroy it. He really liked it until he did, and I wasn't bothered. Great product.
Even though this is only the second of your videos I've seen, so far I really like what you're doing. I mentioned on the other one that the G-Shock DW-5600 is next on my soon to be mine watches, but now I'm not too sure. It's definitely still ONE of the first though. TBH, I'm kind of liking that Seiko, especially the finish. Also, that first Chinese one would almost do it for me because sometimes I prefer a minimalist dial, but the only thing holding me back is that XII at the top. I hate Roman numerals. It doesn't matter how much I like the rest of the watch, Roman numerals are a deal breaker. Another interesting watch is that Casio SGW-500H Twin Sensor that I mentioned on the other video. You might have to hunt around a little, but with a little time it can be found for around $50. It's loaded with a few complications that I've never used like sunup and sunset times, moon age, five alarms and world time. Also has a digital readout for the compass as well as the seconds hand pointing out direction and a thermometer that I really don't use much. Honestly, most of its complications I don't use and probably never will, but I knew that when I bought it. When I was still in the looking around phase I was comparing it to a similar Timex T49859 I remember that the compass was a fourth hand on the dial and that it had tide in/out times. Once I started looking into it, I noticed it didn't have a digital display, and also no subdials, so no timer, alarm or chronograph. It had a date wheel at 6 o'clock, and a couple circular graphs on the dial that I assume was how you read the temperature, tide and direction. Overall, it really didn't do anything for me and was $30 more that the Casio, but it didn't have the basics. Anyway, I'm going to check out a few more on your channel and probably sub. Oh yeah, and btw... Nice t-shirt!
As a fan of the Vostok watch in it's many forms, I'd like to thank you for the link to their own retail site. I'm sure that the Komandirski was waterproof to 100M and the Amphibia is OK at 200M, (the automatic 31 jewel dive version.)
Invicta pro diver is the best ultra budget diver watch. The Chinese sub homages like Pagani design, San Martin, etc, are good too, but as usual with Chinese product's it's a lottery if you'll get a very good unit or a lemon
I own the wenger with a black dial and the dw5600, a Seiko is also in my collection. I purchase a Timex weekender every time I see them on offer £30 or under, not purchased a Chrono version yet but it looks very nice
For me the standouts on this list based on what I'd be most likely to wear would be the Casio Duro (How do they sell that for that price?), the G-shock, and the Vostok. I've seen these reviewed elsewhere. They are what you'd expect from a cheap Russian watch. They don't work great, but they don't work great forever. I'd get one just because it would make me smile wearing it.
Thanks so much again. Another great video, another great list of budget watches :) as I‘m developing my knowledge and getting deeper and deeper into time pieces I really love your entertaining vids. And I‘ve found some watches here to be added to my (still tiny) collection. Greetz from Bavaria
I just noticed on the Casio DW5600 that it has notches on the front and sides, just outboard of each pusher. It looks like it's made to accept one of those wire guards to protect the screen from klutzes like me who smash their watch into the doorframe/wall every time they enter or exit a room.
When I saw the notification I was already like "Oh no, in the end I will buy another watch..." And the big suprise at number 10, my next modding victim and hopefully yours ;) Btw. as far as I know they have brass-cases but they are always chromed (gold colored chrome like thing....) so it wont get any patina...BUT you can get rid of it by putting the case into acid for some minutes (really not a big thing)...with some work they can look awesome (and you can use all the amphibia parts (hands, bezel, dial...) Can't wait for the Details review!
I am truly happy I watched, and found your channel!! I’ve always been a watch lover! And had been given a Seiko 5 years ago and finally destroyed it at work. So I had turned into a full time G-shock guy!! Until I watched a few of your videos . I now have a snk 809 in route from creation watches !! So thanks for your helpful information! Im definitely a new subscriber!
Watched while wearing my Timex Expedition. Love your throw away references. Hope you take your towel next time you pop down to the pub. Hope you can figure out a way to look at and compare movements and other aspects of the watch like you started with the lume comparison. Not totally sure how, but then you're the expert.
I am new to your channel, l just discovered it a few days ago. l have recommended highly to people l know. You do a Nice job, every time.Thank you Sir.
Great watches, great video, great T-shirt, love ur Scottish accent. 🏴👍 Most people can’t afford “luxury watches” so it is great that you test affordable watches and give them some love. I am surprised about these proudly Chinese pieces. They seem to be a good alternative.
I got a Timex weekender as a reward at work. It arrived in the mail broken, and too late to send it back for a replacement. Too bad, they are really nice looking watches.
I bought the same Komandirskie you have after your review and really like it. I do have to say though, that the horrible strep is not so horrible. As a matter of fact is was ok when I first put it on. After that it got real comfortable. I like it on the stock strap better than the NATO. So all in all, the strap is pretty Damn good!
Great Value Review! jodi, you have me heading to Gearbest & Amazon for 4 more watches. I love that Guanqin at the beginning. Keep up these great value reviews on watches. I would love to see you do one on maybe the top 5 bang for the buck Seiko's in your opinion. Thanks again Jodi!
Great video Jody! I had to subscribe after watching it. What I like most about this video is the bang for the buck. Let’s face it. For 50 bucks there are a lot of watches that are simply junk. But if you do your research as you have done, there are some decent looking accurate watches. The sad part about Chinese watches is that many of them are sold as expensive (for the quality) brand name watches.
Great video, surprised to see you reviewing three watches I've already got 😁. Biggest surprise was the Chinese watches, they looked gorgeous! and great quality too.
Yes. And those workers are damned happy not to be subsistence farmers anymore. Let's boycott everything in China and send those people back out in the fields to battle seasonal starvation, shall we?! I'm not a fan of China, but showing them that markets and manufacturing are a better way to go than unmitigated central planning is not an evil.
I love all things Vostok. I've got five of those hand wind Komandirskies. The one shown with the KV tank is my favorite. I put a twist-flex band on it for the nostalgic look. A lot of pictures or video footage you see of the former Soviet Union shows the men wearing these watches with an expandable band on it, or just a plain bracelet.
Finally a video where the watch choices are diverse, most videos tend to list the same boring watches. Again nicely done, very informative, and the research is all there! A+
He definitely does his homework, Scotland the Brave! - Scottish but living in Switzerland.

Hi Jody i have a Seiko with a 7S26 I have owned it for 18years and it has never been opened and after all this time it works exactly as it did at new , the Swiss boys are put to shame in someway by Seiko 👌
Doesnt matter is 7s26. That being said, when it bites the dust u could probably just buy a new one for like $20

13:57 that second hand alignment on the Wenger was PERFECT.
Perfectly in between the seconds indices, I mean.
Yeah, unfortunately a lot of quartz watches have this problem...

I'm a big guy with a big wrist and I love my Seiko SNK, keep up the great work your friend from Tennessee
Just ordered the Cadisen. Such a gorgeous watch!
Just watched this Jody, I don’t want to sound like a snob as I personally wouldn’t buy any of these but it’s nice to know that;
1) There’s watches out there that are actually decent for £50
2) I’d definitely pick any one of these over any so called ‘fashion’ watches e.g. Daniel Wellington.
3) It’s nice to know that there’s a RUclipsr out there than can review anything from Omega to a Chinese watch.
Why wouldn't you buy one of these? I'm new to the watch community but what specifically don't you like about these?
@@alexmelodic2640 He won't buy them because they are cheap.
He cares too much about the opinion of his friends rather than the benefits that come off of an intelligent purchase
1800-snob-be-gone
You do sound like a snob though...
Got the Cadisen in black dial. Agree, definitely a great value buy... And Chinese day wheel to boot.
Awesome collection of watches near $50 dollars. Of course I love the green Seiko 5 and I own one. The Casio with the seal strap looked fantastic! I'm not into the digital watches too much but the last Casio wasn't bad. I also bought one of the Vostok watches. Love that as well. Nice variety Jody.
I wish Casio would expand the Duro line just a bit a bet that they would be wildly popular.
They need a mini Duro IMHO, maybe 40mm. 44mm is a touch too big for me, and probably many others. We could call it 'Durito.' (little hard guy)
Agreed, a 40+mm automatic diver's 200m would be nice no fancier than the duro but maybe more tool, full brushed case etc..
Only if they improve the luminescence. I wore mine for a week, but was frustrated not being able to read the time in the dark. Anyone want to buy a cheap Duro?
@@SkippyTheRedKangaroo how cheap?
Wish has been granted

I love the Duro, when I bought I no idea of it's popularity. Mine is on a Nato as the original strap split.
I'm an archaeologist and do a lot of fieldwork.

surprising amount of great sounding watches.
Thanks for another great post. Ordered a $39 Wenger for myself as well as three Casios for gifting. So grateful for review on common stuff
I have the Guanqin. Bought it while I was watching your review of it. It’s lasted me years! Granted, it’s an occasional wear, but when I wear it, I’m not exactly babying it. I’ve smacked it against door frames and on my desk at work. Still holding up.
Just found your channel. Of all of the watch channels RUclips dropped on me after I did a search on a watch I was interested in, yours is the only one I subscribed to. Ive always been interested in Ali Express but always too leary of buying anything there. You make it look promising. Nice channel.
Jody - this was one of your best yet. I really like your channels emphasis on great value.
that wenger camo really is something id be interested in trying out!
That silver Cadisen C1032 is gorgeous.
This is by far the best watch channel on RUclips. You don't just focus on the expensive watches, and appreciate the good cheaper watches that are available out there from the likes of AliExpress and Gearbest.
Thanks for the kind words mate! Mich appreciated.
Love some of these watches. The Cadisen looks great. Also the starking and guanquin.. Had never heard of these brands before.
A very nicely curated collection of high value wrist watches. I must be your target market because I already own three of them: a Timex Weekender Chrono, a Seiko SNK805 and a paratrooper model Komandirskie. Thanks for another entertaining video!
Someone is lurking on your patio.
Oh, nice selection of watches. Completely agree with your selections.
Yet again I am knocked on my arse, I mean who knew??? Not me but I sure do now. It’s 01:20 here in England and just binged on you (getting a little Carry On there) for a few hours and all the better for it!
Bought a couple as I watched so alls well I guess?
Nice one Jody
Great job man! Great information and presentation. I have the Casio Duro, Guanqin GJ16034, and two of the Starkings. Not bad at all, keep up the spectacular work.
Which one do you feel punches above the other.. The Guanqin or Starking?
Awesome watch review ! Entry level or budget watch is the best way to kick start the hobby ! Pls do more !
Hey Jody! Great video as always! I just bought the Guanqin GJ16034 and Cadisen C1032 for a grand total of $107.16 shipped. I can't wait!!!
BTW...Your coupon code worked. How long does the shipping take?
Only one word for your reviews & knowledge = Brilliant ! ! Many thanks ! !
Thank you for this budget list. I see a few I may go get
Bought my first watch yesterday, and am using your channel to help decide which one to buy next! 😁Love the channel mate, great job 👍
I've been subscribed to your channel and almost binge watching your videos for about two weeks now.

Wow! A whole watch collection for under 500 bucks.
Great video.
Ive got the G-Shock 5600 with multi band atomic time regulation. I fooking love it.
A quick look on the Starking watch online with the Chinese movement shows they work well - if you get a good one. Otherwise, there could be major problems. Apparently the company has good customer service according to the reviews though, but it's still a time cost. The watch itself is nice though (looking at this video).
Based on another of Jody's videos, I got the white Cadisen C1032 from AliExpress.Took a week to arrive & cost me £36 in the September '19 sale only last week - thanks for pointing that out Just One More Watch. Excellent.
Thorough and detailed description of each watch, great video as usual Jody!

Vostok it's my first watch. I bought them in 2005, novadays they are still working. They cost 250$ "2000 гривень"
I own the wenger with a black dial and the dw5600, a Seiko is also in my collection. I purchase a Timex weekender every time I see them on offer £30 or under, not purchased a Chrono version yet but it looks very nice
Wow, you're under 50s are wayyyy better than other under 100s
Very nice video
This is my favorite video to date from your channel.
Keep doing what you do brother!
For me the standouts on this list based on what I'd be most likely to wear would be the Casio Duro (How do they sell that for that price?), the G-shock, and the Vostok. I've seen these reviewed elsewhere. They are what you'd expect from a cheap Russian watch. They don't work great, but they don't work great forever.

This was fun. I have the Timex and Vostok on the list and my Casio collection is multiplying like rabbits. Good episode.👍
Casios tend to reproduce!
What a great review! Keep up the good work.
Nice to see my Times made the list. I bought used on eBay for $25!
Thanks so much again. Another great video, another great list of budget watches :) as I‘m developing my knowledge and getting deeper and deeper into time pieces I really love your entertaining vids. And I‘ve found some watches here to be added to my (still tiny) collection. Greetz from Bavaria

One of my favorite channels easily. Amazing content in all your videos!
When I saw the notification I was already like "Oh no, in the end I will buy another watch..."
And the big suprise at number 10, my next modding victim and hopefully yours ;)
Btw. as far as I know they have brass-cases but they are always chromed (gold colored chrome like thing....) so it wont get any patina...BUT you can get rid of it by putting the case into acid for some minutes (really not a big thing)...with some work they can look awesome (and you can use all the amphibia parts (hands, bezel, dial...)
Can't wait for the Details review!
I got the Wenger and duro and I love them so much! I love your list videos
I love these budget videos! Some nice beater watches as well as some classy dress items. Keep up the watch hunt.
I am truly happy I watched, and found your channel!! I’ve always been a watch lover! And had been given a Seiko 5 years ago and finally destroyed it at work. So I had turned into a full time G-shock guy!! Until I watched a few of your videos . I now have a snk 809 in route from creation watches !! So thanks for your helpful information! Im definitely a new subscriber!
Thanks mate! Welcome.
Variety of watches in the $50 price range. Great effort on the video. Time for me to start shopping :)
Watched while wearing my Timex Expedition. Love your throw away references. Hope you take your towel next time you pop down to the pub. Hope you can figure out a way to look at and compare movements and other aspects of the watch like you started with the lume comparison. Not totally sure how, but then you're the expert.
I knew of three of these, but what a list! Love the video and I really appreciate your expertise.
I am new to your channel, l just discovered it a few days ago. l have recommended highly to people l know. You do a Nice job, every time.Thank you Sir.
This is now my cheap watch Bible, I shall not stop until I have acquired them all. Love it 😁
Ross! I made an updated video this year! Under $60. Some new choices too.
@@JustOneMoreWatch Will check it out cheers
Great watches, great video, great T-shirt, love ur Scottish accent. 🏴👍 Most people can’t afford “luxury watches” so it is great that you test affordable watches and give them some love. I am surprised about these proudly Chinese pieces. They seem to be a good alternative.
Well thought I'd give the starking a try :) just ordered...
Awesome video! I own both the G-Shock DW-5600 and the Seiko SNK800 in blue (which I rarely wear because I want to replace the blue nylon wrist strap).
Really enjoy your videos. Your personality makes the content!
Nice champagne! I love Perrier Jouet.
Great suggestions Jody. I have three of these. Love my Wenger.
I got a Timex weekender as a reward at work. It arrived in the mail broken, and too late to send it back for a replacement. Too bad, they are really nice looking watches.
I bought the same Komandirskie you have after your review and really like it. I do have to say though, that the horrible strep is not so horrible. As a matter of fact is was ok when I first put it on. After that it got real comfortable. I like it on the stock strap better than the NATO. So all in all, the strap is pretty Damn good!
I bought the Seiko blue dial version for around $60a couple of months ago :)
Thnx for this great informative video as well as all your others too !Cheers from America!
Great Value Review! jodi, you have me heading to Gearbest & Amazon for 4 more watches. I love that Guanqin at the beginning. Keep up these great value reviews on watches. I would love to see you do one on maybe the top 5 bang for the buck Seiko's in your opinion. Thanks again Jodi!
cheers from yakutia, nice watches thanks, that Casio on the 9 position is on my wishlist now.
I have been wearing the Guanqin as a daily driver for damn near six months now and it still looks great.
Enjoying your videos Jody, keep up the good work.
Nice video. Have the Casio Duro myself, as a job watch. Really suprised about the quality.
I'm planing on getting one. So I have to ask does the colour fade due to use overtime ? Can it take a few beatings ?
Info overload...love it! Thanks for providing the links, too. Very helpful and thanks for making this "marathon" video 😊
Just found your channel, so I’m binge-watching. “Double the meaning of life” on the Casio... I did get that, love it!
Welcome mate! About 440 more vids, and you'll be all caught up!
Awesome video once again can't wait for the next top 10 list
Gracias por tus videos. Saludos desde Colombia.
Great review! and now additional $8 off w free shipping so this delivered to your door for
Very good video - food for thought. Have to watch it again before I make my next buy :)
yeees the budget series! instant like
Great video Jody! I had to subscribe after watching it. What I like most about this video is the bang for the buck. Let’s face it. For 50 bucks there are a lot of watches that are simply junk. But if you do your research as you have done, there are some decent looking accurate watches.
The sad part about Chinese watches is that many of them are sold as expensive (for the quality) brand name watches.
Great video, surprised to see you reviewing three watches I've already got 😁. Biggest surprise was the Chinese watches, they looked gorgeous! and great quality too.
I need to start looking into these Chinese automatics...
Do you support the slave workers system? I don't.
Take everything out of your house that isn’t chinese made and you will probably be left with fruit and veg. I love browsing chinese made.
Hahhah! Love it mate. Classic and so true.
Yes. And those workers are damned happy not to be subsistence farmers anymore. Let's boycott everything in China and send those people back out in the fields to battle seasonal starvation, shall we?! I'm not a fan of China, but showing them that markets and manufacturing are a better way to go than unmitigated central planning is not an evil.
I like em
Obscure hitchhiker reference there. Well played sir.
I didn't even notice that it was almost 23 minutes long. Great job!
U deserve a million subs :")
Love ur videos ❤️
Huh! Blue and brown are the school colors of my alma mater. It would have been interesting to wear that Wenger around while I was an undergrad!
I love all things Vostok. I've got five of those hand wind Komandirskies. The one shown with the KV tank is my favorite. I put a twist-flex band on it for the nostalgic look. A lot of pictures or video footage you see of the former Soviet Union shows the men wearing these watches with an expandable band on it, or just a plain bracelet.
