Ben I like your reviews can you do an review on titan watches I think you need to see their collections new and old
I buy TIMEX , takes a liking but keeps on ticking as the commercials say . And it's true Timex are one of the best watches ever made
Anything less than 40mm is a woman's watch! Aha ha ha ha ha ahh.

You’re doing the good work!
The timex weekender is louder than bombs… if you get one, keep it in a separate postcode
I love the warm plastic dome, but every time I answer the phone I am reminded why I never wear it.
Lol
LOOOOL
Agree, I have one and have to put it in a box. Its ticking sound too loud for me when I go to sleep.
@@cbeltway do you know if the timex exposition solar watches are loud like these?
By 0:48 I was thinking “now THIS is why Ben is the best watch youtuber”
Thanks for the feature! We're also going to be a dime in a dozen with our Dirty Dozen homage that comes with our own slight twist.
Sounds interesting
We need time stamps!
Unfortunately with all the disclosures I have to put in the description these days, I can't fit them within the 5000 character count 😅
@@BensWatchClub Makes sense, no worries!
@@BensWatchClub post them in the pinned comment!
Found a workaround 😉
Check the description towards the bottom, its in chapters
Ive worn Citizen Eco for 5 years straight and its never failed or been incorrect. 100% recommend this watch.
Nice to know, just bought one this morning.
"MK" is an abbreviation of "mark" and is supposed to be pronounced as such. In recent years, I've noticed that this piece of knowledge has not been passed down effectively. Learn it, live it, spread the word.
I can vouch for WatchCrunch it’s amazing. Polls, lighthearted discussions, user watch reviews, big names (Bens Watch Club, Mad Watch Collector, Just The Watch, etc), competitions, etc.
Fantastic work with this round up mate, glad to see some new watches that weren't on my radar, especially the marathon. Think they could be next on the list if I can part with my other field watches first.
Lotta energy in your videos, keep up the good work.
Just the video I needed! I was actually looking at field watches yesterday.
Glad to see the Vario Trench Watch, I've been looking at it the last weeks, probably going to pull the trigger soon
I’m sure you’ve heard of it, but the SWC Bunker is a spec-monster. Under$500 you get a lot for the money. Owned for a year, still my favorite.
LOVE the content. Keep ‘em coming!!!
Specs certainly look solid, unfortunately, I can't look past that logo - it is probably the ugliest I've seen on a watch. Shame, as the rest of the watch looks good!
Hey, dig your content dude! Vids like this on realistic pieces us mortals can afford are validating to the collector on a budget.
Awesome video man! I just found your channel but I already love it. Thanks a lot.
Love these mate. Keep em coming for dress watches and other types of watches too
I have a small wrist and I’m very glad to have found your channel. I’m on vacation and decided that I need a field watch so I won’t have to carry a cell phone around to keep of with time while swimming and going to the water park. Thanks for the video.
Great video keep up with the good content as always!
A great summary I was looking for! Many thanks. Left a sub!
Great selection and amazing macro work Ben (:
Great video, exactly what I was looking for. And very useful with the timestamps and links. Regards from Germany. 🙂
Not sure if you might read this comment or not, but really great video man. Really enjoying your videos lately. I think I'm definatly going to go for a field watch for my first good watch. It doesn't look too formal so I feel like it would be a good daily watch. Furthermore there are many that have a vintage look which I am a huge fan of.
Very well researched list, Ben. I have the Vaer S3. It is extremely well finished, wears smaller than most 36mm watches and the second hand hits all the markers. It also looks great on a nato.
I loved this video. I’m a huge fan of field and aviation watches and there are so many cool choices in this video 👏🏽 Amazing work
Thank you for this video! Now I have a Baltany S watch, and after changing the stock strap for a dark brown leather one, the watch really shines and feels much more high-end than the price tag suggests!
If there is anyone that need more subs is Ben's watch club your reviews are straight to the point and with no filter I doubt that there is anyone with a slim wrist hasn't seen your reviews and if they haven't where have they been ... ben awesome awesome review brother 🤙🇿🇦😊⌚👏
I have the Vaer C3 Tradition and it is one of my favourite watches of all time!!! As an American, it is really nice to have an American assembled watch powered by an American Quartz movement. It is amazing for small wrists and I dig the vintage aesthetics. Highly recommend this watch
When I saw the Vario, I got really excited at its styling, and didn't expect the brand to be linked to my country in any possible way
Excellent breakdown. Flows well. Just what a consumer needs.
This is a helpful list for small wristed like mine, thank you!
Picked the lorus lumibrite up for £24.99 in Argos last week. Lovely little cheap n cheerful watch. 👍👍
A very nice list, great video Ben!
I love my Seiko 5. I got one years ago and have absolutely beaten the heck out it. It still works great though. Very cool understated watch and an excellent value. Shame they're discontinuing it.
Let them, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Great reviews. I’m ex armed forces and had an issue G10 and grey NATO strap which I returned to stores when I left in the 80s.
I missed it and spotted a civvy copy about 30 years ago from the ‘Jack & Jones’ brand (Rene Radlev,World of Watches, Copenhagen, Denmark) for about £20. Probably a Japanese movement, very accurate and it keeps going, all I do is unscrew the back and change the battery, and it’s never been serviced.It’s travelled Europe, India and SE Asia with me when I went backpacking with a Lonely Planet guide. I got a bad scratch on the glass, so I got that replaced for pence by a Malaysian jeweller in Kuala Lumpur. It’s still going strong, but the luminous markers and hands is barely visible now in the dark after an hour, so about 4 years ago I got the Lorus field watch you mention as it had the entire luminescent face, plus day/date (date is a necessity and day a bonus for me). Straps a bit cheap, but there again at the price point, no problem. I use a stainless steel or a NATO G10 strap with it. Again, very accurate and I reckon it will last as well as my other field watch has.
There’s also one budget brand that does field watches, Sekonda. Worth a mention.👍
Try CWC watches for one of their current G10s , l have a 2020 issue and an Original 1980 fatboy which is still working testement to the excellent build quality
thx for your recommend , you give me so many information about the field watch ,thx a lot , love from Hong Kong.
I have the Lorus Lumibrite - love it. Must have day/date. Will put my own Saphire crystal on it. Don't need titanium as it is already super light, small and tough.
One of your best videos yet!
I am so glad the Lorus RXD425L8/RG877 is back. I would be buying one if I didn't already have a spare. They look great on a simple soft leather strap.
This video should allow multiple likes.
Awsome compilation
Great video ben, ive one for your list, the traser p59 essential , i can vouch for the quality fit and finish and the trigalight is much brighter than marathons.
I swear those intros are more and more creative
Cool video, keep it up man
Love and support from Belgium
Thank you for this video. Love to know so many alternatives. I bought a used Boldr venture khaki recently, and after switching to a different strap it's just perfect.
Ben, I love this video and I'm thankful for being able to watch it! I do have a legit important question - in the Timex part you have the watch lying on an old pair of binoculars. I have a similar looking pair that I inherited from my Dziadziu from his life during WW2. Do you have any information on those binoculars? Thank you so much and keep up the great work on your channel!
Great video mate, as a watch enthusiast with skiing wrists I find choice sometimes quite limiting….subscribed!
Own several of the listed, just got the Lumibrite......its a stageshow when the lights go out, would recommend on that alone.
Cracking watch for the money and TBH it is just a fun enjoyable thing.
Best intro ever 😂
Very nice content my friend, huge friend from Brazil!
With the development these intros have been taking, I feel like we're rapidly approaching the »Ben And The Quest For The Large Wrist« feature film Kickstarter campaign.
Great video - thanks so much👍🏻
Great video! That Timex solar looks really cool, same w/ the MK1. Great suggestions!
Thank you for this!!
Really really enjoyed the intro lol. GOOD STUFF!
I am a firm believer in the Timex field watches. I own several and they are tough, practical, and affordable.
One watch I think might also fit on this list is the Switch Watch Company's ARK. SWC seems to be pretty nice micro brand. Their ARK has Titanium case, domed sapphire crystal, a Ronda movement and they appear to have slapped a ton of lume on the dial and hands. They retail for 199$ but it seems to be hard to get your hands on one as most variants are sold out at the moment.
That logo though.
Recently picked up the Sieko SRPH in black and orange, absolutely love it. Think the slight size increase works in its favour, the orange on matt black makes it very legible and striking to look at.
Field watches are my favorite style and I have tiny wrists. I bought a Seiko SNK800 as my first watch.
You could add the SWC Bunker to the list, it’s a 41mm but titanium, oodles of lume and AR coating and well under $500 🤟
Great video, as usual, Ben. Cheers
Hell yeah! This video was made for me
Ended up scratching my itch with a 36mm baltany for 75 usd (leather strap) bought through AliExpress. Overall I am happy with it, my previous watch was a Timex explorer 36mm that is quite similar. It did cost more but deals much more premium. And most important it much quieter than the Timex.
Glad to see you back
Greetings from northen Sweden and a fellow watch entusiast.
I have the Seiko SNK805 and I rather like the little bugger. When I got the watch it was running a little sporadic, turned out to be a loose rotor, Tightened it up and it runs at +8sec/day.
Thank U for the list.
I own a Timex Expedition Scout and it just might be my favourite of all the watches i own.
I'd also add the SWC ARK and the Momentum Atlas. I'm definitely partial to field watches and really appreciate this video.
Picked up a amzwatch's watch as my first watch last month and I’m absolutely in love with it. Perfect size, looks elegant, very comfortable. Now my only problem is holding off from buying more watches so quickly!
Re: Citizen BM8180. This may be the perfect grab and go watch, other than the square g-shock (arguably a modern field watch). I hated the stock strap which is stiff, cheap, and uncomfortable. I highly recommend a Haveston single pass canvas strap on this watch. They have several 18mm offerings. Canvas keepers would be best. In hot weather the canvas Haveston strap is insanely comfortable, and it looks the part of a WW2 era US Military or MOD offering.
I know you may not like the Seiko SRPG's, but they are very good for what you get, including hacking and hand winding. Something the SNZG and SNK models didn't have and they are both discontinued. Also, the Orient Defender is good too and comes in under $200 depending on the version you get. The black and blue dial defenders tend to be the ones competitively priced.
Nicely done review. Kudos! Alba has a nice titanium version that is worth checking out.
I am going to get that 36mm MK1. Hits the sweet spot and I have a nostalgia for domed acrylic crystals.
Excellent video Ben , l was going to to tear a strip off you until you mentioned CWC !
So glad you did , I have most of the previous watches you shown in your presentation but honestly my CwC collection wipes the floor against the rest !
I would strongly suggest you pick up one for a future review and l honestly believe you'll give it a strong positive review.
I have one of their divers , chronograph, and around 6 X G10s ( one from each military service) so l am serious about them
Another amazing fact is service issued ones fetch higher prices than new so they could be considered as a small invest for the future
Great video Ben! If I may suggest one more option, I’d have a look at the Lorus RS935DX9. It’s a bit larger than the Lorus options you included, but still only 39mm. I own this watch and it’s fantastic. 10 bar and very bright lume. Highly recommended.
Great video Ben 🙂
Thanks! Love small field watches.
@9:19, a prominent tick?! I can hear mine from across a room, and if it's quiet enough and the doors are open, in another room! It's unbelievable how loud the Expedition is!
Major Shaun Of The Dead vibes when y'all ran out the door. Love it man, great job!
Great content
Great review mate. Gotta tell you from extensive experience, that the Lorus/Seiko totally trumps it in my view. Both back at school, in the Army and now as a contractor I've used them and even bought a few to give to colleagues or people we've been training. Very affordable, sometimes as little as 20 quid in the sales, very tough and robust, with battery changes my Lorus watches have lasted 10 to 16 years - I don't know of a Timex lasting for more than around 5. The lumibrite feature overall is a big plus and useful for most jobs including night guard, construction and outdoors. Looks aesthetically good on almost any wrist, a good strap monster and quality Japanese quartz build. The Marathon is very overpriced for what it is and Timexes - though a decent option - have gone way up in price and again seem to have a shelf life of 5 to 6 years, plus the plated brass case scratches fairly quickly under intense use. They don't pay me to plug them but any Lorus basic field beater, especially the Lumibrite G10 homage, is an excellent option proved across Iraq and the Middle East
I have several Marathon GP’s in my collection, and they are by far the most comfortable field watches I own. I highly recommend them.
Banger video once again
Great review! I have a (now discontinued) timex expedition rugged field men's watch t49626. If you can find it, I highly recommend it.
i bought a citizen eco-drive that I used on deployment as I didn't want to worry about batteries. Put on a NATO strap which is dangerous I found out after jumping off a truck and snagging it. Luckily it just ripped the watch off but could have broke my wrist or even de-gloved. Now I use a french elastic nato band. The watch held up great though, and while the glow didn't last incredibly long it was fine on night-time missions. It did get really scratched up but that's just a given.
Looking for a durable watch because I'm shipping out to basic at Leonard Wood at the end of July. Would the citizen eco-drive hold up or should I get a cheaper watch for basic? I don't want a G shock because they look a bit silly and I prefer analog watches.
I have the Vaer watches - both the white and blue dial ones you included in this video. I love them. For someone with a thin wrist that wants durable, these field watches are the way to go. 316L, 100m WR, domed sapphire with AR on the inside = water friendly, very anti-scratch. In the summer, I put the white dial on the navy silicon strap for going to the pool/beach and put the blue on the steel bracelet as the slightly dressier watch that you can take camping and to a nice restaurant.
I am seriously thinking about getting a Vaer. I like that they are constructed in the US. Do you think it would hold up well to swimming in a pool or ocean?
@@johnsanders7599 I have taken my Vaer C3's to the pool and they are fine (just remember to have the crown screwed in). 100 meter water resistance should be good for the pool and beach, but definitely not any proper diving. The case is 316L steel, so it's good against salt, though I would always clean the watch off with clean water after going to the beach.
@@briankelley987 that’s good to know. I ordered a C5 Field Black 40mm a few days ago. The email gives a order number. Is that the number for just watches made or for anything that they sell?
Currently own the VAER A3 Tradition (aka the Automatic version of the Vaer watch featured). It's a fantastic watch for a small wrist and I love that it uses the Miyota 9039, but will definitely set you back near 500 USD, unless you snag a discount.
I have the American Quartz version and it is damn good value!! I wore it to the pool for the 4th of July and it performed flawlessly!!!
I wore my Vaer with Ameriquartz on the 4th, too!
Always enjoy your videos, but how about a similar list for the larger gentleman?
I've had the timex and citizen, both were amazing with near perfect accuracy and even though the timex was 1/4 the price it received a lot less scratches
I chose the Timex expedition Metal Field over the Camper or the weekender for a cheap, small every day piece. The chromed brass case muffles a lot of the loud ticking (not that i have a problem with that) and gives the watch a more substantial feel, i also prefer the flat mineral crystal over the more scratch prone acrylic, the extra $10 over the Camper is more than worth it.
I had a timex expedition once... Absolutely fabulous watch, the backlight was really nice but oh lord, that thing ticked. It ticked LOUD. could not sleep with that thing in the same street.
I’ve owned that bertucci for years now and it’s awesome.
The bertucci deserved a better review. I currently have the a-2t. Titanium 200 meter version. Only complaints I have is I wish it was sapphire, but no scratches yet. There is a sapphire version. Called the A-2T super classic. The luminescence isn’t as good as other watches I’ve had. For the price, durability, and the 4 o’clock crown is what sold me. Definitely makes my favorites. Looking forward to the super classic.
I can’t say enough about My Bertucci watch. Amazing stock strap, and unbelievably comfortable. With a jeweled repairable American Quartz Movement, it really makes me question why I own any other watches
Great video
Really liked those Vaers
Hi there Ben, although I agree with you to a point on the Lorus Titanium, this has become a bit of a special collector's piece. If you want cheap, very tough, useful in the field and surprisingly long lasting, you need the Lorus lumibrite. The titanium model also has an elevated glass crystal and the lume isn't as good. Again, this is one of the very few areas I can 'pontificate with authority' having used them since the tail end of my schooldays! The Timex watches are also becoming a more expensive sentimental piece for collectors, for which price you could get a lower-end G-shock or an Argos military Citizen watch.
Great selection! I've got 3 of the watches you included (Timex Solar, Citizen, and Seiko SNK8). And the. Two where I have either a slightly different version (in the case of the Seiko SRPG) and then the Vaer where I have the Automatic.
One benefit of having tiny wrists is that your wallet doesn't suffer quite as much.
Great video Ben. I really like the Vario trench watch. I bought their Popeye model recently and it is a stunner. Probably will go for the field watch as well
yeah, one of my favorite things of my Khaki Field Auto is the slimness. Even slimmer than my quartz watches. I got the 42mm version tho, I prefer slightly larger watches and it doesn't look out of proportion thankfully
Thanks for the great video ! Could you please do a review of the VAER please? Or should we d’assume that you did not really like it as per your comment on the video.
The Timex 36mm mk1 mechanical is perfect for small wrists and it is a true size for a military spec watch, I have one as a daily watch and it keeps great time at approximately +10 seconds per day. I agree that it would be great if they did other colours especially a black face,
