Thanks for watching everyone and don't forget to watch in 1080HD or 4K... Thanks again. I really, really appreciate the support. I really enjoy creating content like this so thank you so much for watching 😊 Would love to hear your thoughts with a comment below 👇🏽 and a subscribe too 😍
That is a great combo, hopefully ill remember it when my time is up in 2-who the hell knows years 😂 Thank you for the review, im on the list for all Helm watches and when my time comes i wil get mine..
Wow! Just, wow! I am on the list. I had never considered the white dial. However, since seeing this version, it will be the one I buy. Absolutely stunning! Thanks for seeing possibilities i hadn’t even considered.
…so I just happened across this review, well done. I have 4 Helm’s and was an early adopter. I almost agree with you re the Komodo, I have the same iteration, apart from the engineered bracelet. That bracelet is banging on the Vanuatu Ti (The best fit for purpose watch in the range IMO). I have the rubber mint on the Komodo and it totally rocks it and works, I’d urge you to get the rubber and try it on wrist…
Nice one. Thanks for watching and appreciate the comment. I've got the engineered on the Vanuatu steel (with silver bezel) and I feel that is the best combo too. I'm very tempted to get the rubber strap... The blue for the Komodo looks amazing. Thanks again 🫶🏽
Nice review thanks. I was all set to buy the orange, but changed my mind last minute to the white dial. I bought the same bezel as you, and also the mint rubber strap which looks the business and is great for summertime. I'm going to put it on the other bezel today, hope I don't mess it up!
PS - I'm rubbish at changing links, bracelets and bezels with my clumsy fingers so if I can do I'm sure anyone can 😂 I just used a sharp kitchen knife!
The white dial was one of the first watches i fell in love with. After 4 years, my number is coming up in 6 months. I wanted to get your exact variation of the watch, though i am tempted to get the black dial and steel bezel as well. Im still not sure on what to choose! The white really does look good.
Hi, this is the white dial 03AR3 with the SS1 bracelet (you can buy this bracelet at a discounted rate when you buy your Komodo but be sure to select that it's for the Komodo to get the right lug fit). I also purchased the BEZ-03-05 silver/light blue bezel (again discounted if bought with the Komodo) and cha ged the bezel at home, which is easy peasy.
I got my Vanuatu in August after 2 years on the list and just got "the call" on my Komodo 3 months on from that. I liked the black/blue dial or the orange but posted the question on the FB group and most recommend the white so the order went in today.👍
Thanks! I did so many scenery shots and some didn't make the cut otherwise that walkabout would have been ten million hours long... Was difficult to choose as I liked them all!
Of course you review a Helm on the day I got so incredibly lucky to win the Miyako lottery and order my first Helm! Congratulations on your piece and, obviously, on yet another great review! You successfully demonstrated the Komodo can be a great field watch too! :D
Think that bezel is the best and also the silver bezel on the Vanuatu too. I've also seen the silver on the Khuraburi (white dial) which looks amazing but heard horror stories about changing that bezel. Nice choice there sir and great production 😈
I've also the silver bezel and engineer bracelet on the Vanuatu and it looks so muuuuch better (I obviously have a type 😳). I'd do the same to my. Khuraburi but I've also read the same horror stories and wouldn't want to end up smashing the crystal with my clumsy hands 😭
Just found this video and I completely agree. I received my Komodo last week and I have already ordered the Silver/Light Blue bezel and the SS1 Bracelet. Nice video!
@@walkaroundwatches Yep I've got the orginal one off. Having a devil of a time getting the news one on. I've changed out watch bands before on a variety of watches but this one seems to be a whole different game!
@@crabbyreef if you can get one side of the pin in at least to the lug, can you hold it in place and use soemthing like a credit card to push the other pin down, then slot it in? If that makes sense? Also, go in from the back of the case if you can. Are you part of the Facebook Helm group? There are plenty who are far more skilled than me in changing bracelets, in particular the Komodo which is a tricky one. It's worth asking there.
I really would appreciate your response to this question... How do you remove the lug pins that are standard on the Helm Komodo? They seem quite chunky and I can't remove them to fit the bracelet strap which came with the watch. Looking forward to your swift and positive response. Cheers
Hi mate. I must admit it took me a while to crack this. Certainly wasn't the easier bracelet to change. To take the existing lug pins out, do you have a spring bar link remover tool? I'd use that. Re getting the new bracelet in, my only advice is if you can get one side of the pin in at least to the lug, can you hold it in place and use soemthing like a credit card or part of a very thin small knife to push the other pin down, then slot it in? If that makes sense? Also, go in from the back of the case if you can. Are you part of the Facebook Helm group?

Great review 👌 out of interest in your review it appears you have the supplied bezel still on …but you spoke of getting the silver? Which one is in the review. It appears black. Do you have your purchase anything else to change the bezel at all? Thanks again. Will add myself to the list.
Thank you. The nezel featured in the review is the BEZ-03-5 which is the silver bezel and light blue lumed markings. This bezel doesn't come as standard and is an optional extra. I didn't need to purchase anything else (other than the SS1 bracelet). Bezel is super easy to change... Just get a very sharp kitchen knife and carefully slot it between bezel and case and it'll pop out. Hope you like your new Komodo 😊
My favourite content you've produced so far. Really well put together with a great am narrative. Personally I like the orange dial but that's only because I prefer orange dials over white and naturally the orange dial is better suited with black therefore the black bezel is my preference. Great content however 👍🏽
Ah perhaps. I measured it at 20mm at the clasp and 20mm at the lug and think Helm state the same on their website, but there's bit of wriggle with it being 5 link 😊
Thanks for watching everyone and don't forget to watch in 1080HD or 4K...

Thank you for the review, im on the list for all Helm watches and when my time comes i wil get mine..
Stay strong bro! That time will come! When it does it would be great to know which combos and/or colourway you've gone for...
I added my email in the queue for the Khuraburi Ti. Left that place a year ago 🤦
Love this color combo too! And picking up the other bezel was a good move for the looks. This white dial with soft blue is DREAMY!!!
Dreeeamy us the right word indeed 🫠 love this combo sooooo much
Literally the best of al helm 🎉
Agree 🤩
Wow! Just, wow!
I am on the list.
I had never considered the white dial. However, since seeing this version, it will be the one I buy.
Absolutely stunning!
Thanks for seeing possibilities i hadn’t even considered.
Nice one! The white is definitely the best colourway and I think looks awesome on that bezel too! Hope you don't have to wait too long on the list ☺️

Just be aware that Helms dont arrive on their steel bracelets and the Komodo can be quite tricky to swap over.
@@walkaroundwatches yes they come on the NATO.
I'm just wondering if I should go with the white dial, which I always wanted, or the black dial.
@younusimam-thesalamproject6340 I'd go white personally 🤍
I got my Vanuatu in August after 2 years on the list and just got "the call" on my Komodo 3 months on from that. I liked the black/blue dial or the orange but posted the question on the FB group and most recommend the white so the order went in today.👍
Fantastic choice! Maybe get yourself back on the waiting list and go for that black and blue. I'd have them all if I could 😂
Awesome review! Such an aesthetically pleasing watch😍 Certainly looks good on the wrist with that scenery in the background🤩
Thanks! I did so many scenery shots and some didn't make the cut otherwise that walkabout would have been ten million hours long... Was difficult to choose as I liked them all!
Great information on all aspects of the watch.
Thank you. I am glad it helped 😊

@carnagewatches Any trick(s) for installing the braclet? I am having a heck of a time and I don't want to scratch my watch. Thanks!
@@crabbyreef I had an absolute MARE changing mine. Are you able to get the original bracelet off OK? Or is the problem getting the new one on?
@@walkaroundwatches Yep I've got the orginal one off. Having a devil of a time getting the news one on. I've changed out watch bands before on a variety of watches but this one seems to be a whole different game!

I've thought about getting a helm but waiting for 2 years plus for a watch but the they sell
Yeah seems a bit ridiculous their wait time.
@@walkaroundwatches the rolex of the microbrand 😆

Thank you for your video let me know this micro brand. I also never seen it in Asia. The color combo is amazing!
Thanks for watching! The waiting list for a Helm is so long so they're difficult to get hold of unfortunately. Thanks again ❤️

@@walkaroundwatches cheers. May be a long wait but after owning a Vanuatu they r definitely bang for buck!
@leehall8830 totally agree! Fingers crossed the wait won't be too long! The Komodo is probably my fave of all Helms

Thanks for the kind comments 😭😭😭 yeah orange and black man 🖤😎🧡
@@walkaroundwatches my personal favourite for sure. You have one?
@@cookiemarvel1989 unfortunately not mate 😭 but after the white it's the second best in my opinion
@@walkaroundwatches I wud say get one but itll take you a year to get to the front of the cue 😂
@@cookiemarvel1989 I'm not even on the list anymore 😭😭😭
I own the Vanuatu but prefer this
I with you mate. Thanks for watching 🫶🏽
This many years later is there still a waiting list?
There are many hundreds still on the waiting list 😭
Just bought the white dial so I vote that way. Orange close but I already have an orange.
Great choice! I don't think you'll be disappointed 🤍
@@walkaroundwatchesI ordered it with a rubber strap, I'll have a think on whether to get the extra bezel.
@MrBacchus18 brilliant! 🤍
That’s a sharp watch 👍
It certainly is 😎
This video is really good!
Man thanks so much... that's made my day 😁😁
good video
Glad you enjoyed
Cool

NICE
Thanks 😊

Nooooo, the orange is best
The orange is definitely awesome. I reckon in a poll most would say orange tbf
I think that bracelet DOES taper.
Ah perhaps. I measured it at 20mm at the clasp and 20mm at the lug and think Helm state the same on their website, but there's bit of wriggle with it being 5 link 😊
