InfantryMen's Wrist Watch, Field Military Watches for Men Analog, Black Tactical Outdoor Sport Work Wristwatch, Waterproof Date Day 12/24 Hour with Army Nylon Band

I wanted to give this watch about a week on the wrist before giving my opinion on the watch. I base my decisions on a new watch off the price point and then the overall value that the watch offers for that price. For under $30, you're getting a really nice value in my opinion. The hardened mineral crystal is flat and clear which I like and I was not expecting to get any sapphire crystal at this price point so I have no complaints there. The day/date function is awesome as I like to have a date function. The day of week complication is just icing on the cake for me personally. I do want to point out that the case appears to be made of a metal alloy that gives this really nice sandblasted finish effect. Its not quite matte, not quite pearlescent, but gives some shine that looks great! The NATO strap that the watch comes on is nice quality and what I would expect if I were to pay $10-$15 for a strap from amazon so I appreciate the quality of the hardware on the NATO strap right out of the box. Being quartz, I can tell that this movement is decent, as there is little to no bounce in the second hand and I know the battery life will last for quite a long time before needing to be replaced. With 50M of water resistance, I don't have to worry about this watch being out in the rain or outdoors, which is great peace of mind. Lastly, the lume on the dial is quite bright for this price point. It's not BG9 superluminova or anything like that, but it glows brightly and lasts for a reasonable amount of time. Much longer than many other inexpensive watches I own that have lume on the hands/dial. Hope that helps! For an inexpensive field watch, I definitely recommend this one from MDC/Infantry!

Great watch so far, solid feel, like the look. Tip: kept having the day/ date change mid day, almost sent it back! Dawned on me that maybe I'm 12hrs off cycle. Advanced by 12 and works great now.

It's a really good product it keeps great time but the only thing is it's kind of small and doesn't sit right on your wrist although the band they made for it makes up for quite a lot

Fine low end watch, for affordable price.

The MDC 12/24 Hour Military Wrist Watch, with Date and Day ostensibly is an homage to the old military issue watches of the WWII era. At this price point my expectations for look, style, performance, durability were not very high. I was pleasantly surprised! The watch comes in a small black slender box within a sleeve, protected by felt cushion cut out in the shape of the watch. Immediately, what I term a "utilitarian elegance" jumped out at me. Very handsome and durable look that hints of delicate handling but is hefty and rugged. It is a minimalist watch with simple but lasting durability and precision. I've worn the watch for over a week, and though this is not a great deal of time nor is this a comprehensive review, I've so far come away with the impression that with the MDC you are getting more than you paid for. Keeps great time and if you should ding it or scratch it, you wont feel guilty considering the price point. In fact, I am so impressed with this time piece that I bought a total of three (one in each color offered).

Had this watch for 3 years, then stopped working. Okay, just change the battery. Well, there is a good reason there is no indication of what battery it uses on the back of the case. It does not appear that it was every considered that anyone would want to replace the battery. I made a special steel spanner wrench to open the watch. After struggling for over an hour with as much force as I could muster, I was unable to break the seal and open the watch. In a last-ditch effort, I took a steel point punch and hammer to the tabs to just attempt to break the seal. That failed. My efforts complement a bunch of other reviewers who tried to change the battery. I too would describe this as a throw-away watch after approximately 3 years. Must have been threaded in using a permanent Loctite, or an equivalent sealer. Longevity be damned.

This is my everyday watch. I have noticed people looking at it on my wrist. Looks more expensive than the price in my opinion.

I bought this watch in 2021.Good: I wear it often - it looks good, keeps accurate time, and is easy to read at a glance.Not good: it leaks easily and the day / date easily goes astray.- I like the watch! Given its issues, I only wear it at my desk or other gentle indoor activities.- Leaking: the watch has fogged up from water intrusion multiple times. I've never submerged it, never worn in the rain, never in the shower, etc. It seems to leak from sweat or an accidental splash in the sink. I take it off every time I wash my hands. When this happens I take the back off, keep in an airtight bag with some rice to absorb the water, and reassemble until the next time. :-)- Day / Date: after I reset the watch for Daylight / Standard time, I have noticed that the day and date reset to some random values. I then have to fiddle with them to correct. Once correct they stick until the next time change.One person's experience. :-)
