Glad to see you have collected so much background information about the watch which has a huge sentimental value & rich heritage in India…. Great video & thanks for spreading the legacy.. Cheers
HMT have such a beautiful history, it’s a watch which everybody from the richest to poor could afford an enjoy. The price for this used to be like ₹750 which is roughly $10.5. Such an amazing time piece
@@Avaddon911 yes frank watches are good too but do try to get a real if you can their finishing is much better and you will get 100% original hmt movement
i received my first hmt pilot watch yesterday..the watch is magnificent..they are selling their new watches through their website...but they ship only in india
I enjoyed your video. I hope so you must be liking hmt pilot watch performance now. It's a tiny watch stays all the time on my wrist , even though I own other indian brand watches from titan , logues , and few foreign brands like seiko, citizen .
Hey buddy, I'm really sorry to beak it to you, but that is not an original Janata. That is an aftermarket dial. Same movement and case though. I don't know how much you paid for it, but it is available for equivalent of 12 dollars on the streets of Delhi. You could have ordered a original vintage Janata for about 15 Dollars OR a NEW one from HMT Website for around 42 dollars (they sell out in minutes every time they list their stock online.). But one thing is these after market dials are very vibrant and colourful, and the watches last a long time. So, regardless, Enjoy the watch.
'that is not an original Janata.' Yes, I think everybody knows that.There's a huge cottage industry of assembling these watches from parts, and this watch is one of them. I bought this one because I particularly liked the dial.

My pleasure. Thanks for watching.
It was a simple and reliable watch. We bought one fifty years ago and it is still ticking.
Wow! You've taken good care of it.
Beautiful Janata
It is. I picked this particular one because of its look.
beautiful watch ! looks great on you
Thanks!

I agree. That's one of the reasons I bought it.
The reason I own about 20 of them 😂
You will never find the original for that cheap they will be in 50-100 usd range this one is a Frankenstein watch
@@songoku-jx3cb I've got a bunch of them and either way they're great watches

Hmt our pride ....
This is a beautiful watch. I hope it will give you a lot of good times ahead!
Thank you
@@honoluluhappenings5561 You are welcome
I've bought tons of these, some didn't work on arrival but I've got 3 that run within a few seconds a day.
I think that's as well as can be expected.
@@honoluluhappenings5561 I enjoy the style and simplicity. They're not for everyone but I really enjoy them.
@@Avaddon911 Exactly why I bought it.

I also like the small size.
Nice watch sir!
Thank you!
Good review i just received mine today, hopefully its not broken because mine took about 2 months to arrive
Good luck! Mine was apparently shipped by surface mail from India to the US, which I guess is by boat.
HMT still sells their old stock through their website but it is rapidly getting out of stock
I didn't know that. Thanks for letting me know.
I am having black dial janata 40 years old running perfectly not opend case of the watch
That's remarkable!

@@honoluluhappenings5561 Ok but if you know this is aftermarket, how is this an Unboxing video of HMT Janata?
@@TheSamosaCritic I'm sorry you didn't pay attention to the video. Your question is answered there.
The First Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru named the Watch 'Janata'.
Thanks for letting me know!
i chosen the Rajat automatic off them .
I hope you're happy with it.
Hmt sona ivory dial
Thank you for your comment
Wait that's janata
It is.
This watch like ase orient bambino
Sorry to say, I'm not familiar with that model.
It's a duplicate watch. Reprinted dial...
Yes, I did not expect it to be an origina.
