Watch #3 is as good as watches #1 and #2! I suspect that watches #4 and #5 will also be pretty good. It doesn't do anything spectacular, but it just does a good job at being a field watch, and it does it for not a lot of money. Cheers, Jody

Always on the look out for British brands that don't have fake military marketing, random bits of aeroplane, silly stories or bits of firehose 🤷‍♂️......These guys, CW and Vertex have so far not commited these sins.....Im quite liking these.

Hi Jody, thanks for leaving such a great review! Once again you've provided us with well-rounded and honest insights, whilst touching upon some valid points that we will take onboard going forwards. We're looking forward to working with you again and we appreciate all the feedback from your community. All the best from the team at Cestrian Watches and have a Merry Christmas!

@lordirek1 7 месяцев назад

I've been looking for an affordable purple dialed diver or field, but most seem to cost several hundred (or much more). If you guys made a Master or a Dive in a saturated, somewhat bright purple I'll guarantee at least one sale of each! These look great, but without a color that I want, I can't justify it. Still, I may pick one up for a gift for someone. They're really nice for the price, and I do like the shield logo, it's simple but fitting and not ostentatious or silly. Keep it up!

@mercster 7 месяцев назад

Thanks Jody! Merry Christmas, hope you and yours are well.

@alexkane5608 7 месяцев назад

I bought the green version and I can tell you that I will be wearing it 'in the field'. Being a scout leader, this will be my go to for outdoors. I have a Lorus lumibrite on a nato, which is great but when the strap gets wet, it stays wet, also, it can melt in the fire! So, my Cestrian will be used as intended and I'm really looking forward to wearing it. Great review as always Jody. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

@andrea81 7 месяцев назад

Just bought the blue one, looking forward to get it. I love my black dial Longines Spirit and I think this looks pretty similar. Best Cestrian design to date surely.

@PbA941 7 месяцев назад

Ok you got me. Never heard of Cestrian but when compared to the Seiko 5 diver I was looking to buy this beats it hands down. Just bought a green V2 Diver and can’t wait to get it. It looks to me like it’s everything the Seiko 5 should be but isn’t. Don’t get me wrong I just bought a Seiko 5 GMT and I really like it. However everything that I would like, screw down crown, 120 click ceramic bezel, and sapphire crystal is on Cestrian. Thanks for the discount code. FYI my 2 sons and I are big fans of your channel.

@D3ZG1978 7 месяцев назад

Just received the field version in grey, absolutely worth the money. Can’t go wrong looking at those specs & design for that small price - with some originally!

@K.J.H_ 7 месяцев назад

Unpopular opinion, I feel like this sort of watch would be better off with a good quality quartz movement and slimmed down case, pulling the weight down a bit too. I know, i know, dont throw tomatos at me!

@gregtolley3455 7 месяцев назад

I bought the gray when it first came out, loved it but kept eyeing the green one so I bought it when they went 20% off recently. Great value in a well built, attractive package.

@Bluepeter62 7 месяцев назад

Well done Cestrian👍 Design is spot on for me, that green is something you don't see very often an I really like it. I don't mind the clasp at all, prefer rubber anyway. That's a fine Xmas gift.

@robh.2400 7 месяцев назад

I have one of these in grey. It's definitely nice for the price. But it wears a bit big and clunky for a field watch, and I would have preferred more brushing on the case and bezel. It seems to be well built and reliable so far.

@philspencelayh5464 7 месяцев назад

I’ve got this watch and it is an absolute bargain!! Hard to beat for an everyday watch!! Sizing is perfect also. Can’t recommend it enough might even get another colour!!

@czguy3045 7 месяцев назад

Not bad... not bad... I have WAY too many watches in this general class - including a Longines-esque Pagani PD-1717 that looks quite a bit like it - but I do really like this one. I would almost certainly wear this one on a vintage leather type strap rather than the bracelet and I think aesthetically speaking, I'd prefer a 3-link bracelet but that's pretty minor. I really like the hand set on this one. I don't mind the relatively busy edge of the dial... I do like that look in general. Slightly dressy field watches are my favorite genre.

@dude28405 7 месяцев назад

I really like the field watch in the green dial. Normally I go for a black dial field watch, but that green really works. There was one more there line that I really liked in a champagne dial. I also like the master series V2 with the champagne dial I’m really starting to dig watches without bezels

@Audittr2108 7 месяцев назад

I’ll wait for the Erebus Field 😉

@mattsmiley8156 7 месяцев назад

That grey dial is the winner. Everything you need and nothing you don’t. A perfect gift for yourself or pretty much anyone into watches. The bracelet is even different enough to set it apart from a regular oyster or jubilee. Plus this would look great on a NATO with that short L2L. Thanks for the review!

@SkysaxonDragonslayer 7 месяцев назад

Same clasp as my Phoibos Wavemaster… Yes - I still own my series 1 and it is one of my keepers! This watch could be the one to go and stay in my collection too.

@larryfromwisconsin9970 7 месяцев назад

Nice. I'm building watches from eBay parts, NH35 movements. I'm building something like that. Getting tired of dive style watches. If I SCUBA dive I wear a G Shock. If I need a kitchen timer I use a Casio Royale or G Shock. I'm liking the field watch style.

@davidrosenblum2178 7 месяцев назад

Nice look, nice quality, nice price… it is definitely… nice. I wish I could get excited about field watches but categorically they’re the style in which I’m least interested. But if I were this would be a good choice. Cheers!

@alfieakaronaldog 7 месяцев назад

This one does look interesting. Funny I had my ‘Master’ Series on yesterday and it is nice for the money. Great that the black gem has gone from the crown, but feel it could be further improved if logo was recessed rather than proud. The brand name not the greatest IMO.

@stevenrobertson6656 7 месяцев назад

Solid looking watch for the price 👍

@HaonProductions 7 месяцев назад

I like this, especially the case shape, even if a mostly polished field watch is bound to be a scratch magnet if you use it as intended. Can't argue with the value though, seems like this brand is one of the few outside of Ali still doing high quality NH35 builds for under 300 USD... along with Erebus of course!

@AleksiJoensuu 6 месяцев назад

This looks really good and the price is awesome. Looks like it laughs in the face of my Hamilton Khaki, with it's 50m WR and 592€ MSRP :D - even if you'd have to be pretty loose with your cash to buy a Hamilton at MSRP. The only real drawback is that thickness - 12,5mm vs 9,5mm is a fair difference. Sure, the Hamilton comes with a "Swiss" movement - but how much of that is actually Swiss made I don't know. And regardless, does even that matter? When these cheap mechanicals break or wear out, their repairs are quite expensive. With the Seiko at least, you can get a whole new movement for like 30-50€ and swap it in.

@JF-lt5zc 7 месяцев назад

I'm not exactly sure what makes this a 'field' watch? It is a nice looking timepiece (love the green), but certainly doesn't seem to have the rugged simplicity that defines the type. The crown sticks out and is unguarded, the crystal is flush with the bezel, offering no incidental protection, and the finish is very refined. Definitely looks more like a desk or pub piece, as you said. Nothing wrong with that, but I don't see this surviving any time in the 'wild' without the crown getting snagged on something or the crystal getting scratched. For less money, and probably from the same country of origin as the Cestrian, I'd rather go with the titanium Baltany or Boderry field watches.

@mrbrisvegas2 7 месяцев назад

These 'brands' just choose a watch from catalogue and have their brand printed on the dial. Even at the 'low' price of $150 the margins are massive.

@cestrianwatches 7 месяцев назад

Hi ,thanks for your comment. I think it is worth explaining that each collection design is initiated by us, and we then work with our UK Watch designers to produce a bespoke design and colourways. There is a huge amount of back and forth until the design is approved ,and then we send this to our manufacturing partners to manufacture them ,and trust me the margins aren’t massive. Thanks Dave
