The term "military watch" can refer to the way a watch looks, or the way a watch is constructed. For me it implies a rugged watch constructed to military specifications, such as some of the watches made by Marathon.
Quite curious, really, but I've heard mentions of watches being considered "military watches." When I search that term on Amazon, I see many kinds of watches. What unifies them as being "military watches"?
Military style watches will have large easy to read 1-12 numbers and small 13-24 in the inner dial. Some of them may have instead the minutes marked 5-10-15 etc. Date is optional. Hour and second hand are simple easy to read.
Second Hand Hacking feature is essential for synchronising several watches at the same time. (Lower quality watches do not have this feature).
May have a rotating bezel.
Can be mechanical or quartz powered.
Military Aviator or pilot style will have large 1-11 hour numbers with a triangle and two dots at the 12 o'clock place.
"Military" is a term which is not patented or trade-marked. Any fool can say that some watch or other is military.
Ditto.Ya'll should look up the watch you seek forum. There are a buttload of photos on there of soldiers wearing the standard casio Gshock. It's cheap, easy to find, digital so you can be precise at a glance, and the military boys seem to like them. My cousin does and he's a 35Mike. I personally don't like those particular models but I do also only wear gshocks. Alot of the military is wearing Sunnto now as well.
Exactly what he said!!!Military style watches will have large easy to read 1-12 numbers and small 13-24 in the inner dial. Some of them may have instead the minutes marked 5-10-15 etc. Date is optional. Hour and second hand are simple easy to read.
