I'm in a Field, dilemma, any suggestions?

So, I know what I want but I don't want to pay silly money for it,

I want field watch looks think (Hamilton Khaki) with a date,

A sapphire lens and a screw-down crown are a must with great lume and powered by something a little bit sweeter than an NH35,

So much comes close but no cigar yet,

Any suggestions?....am I asking too much?

👍 I’m picking up a Bunker this weekend…can’t beat the specs for the price…the Timex has really good specs for the money also

You should look at the San Martin or Pagani stores on AliExpress and see if anything strikes your fancy.

Just a thought… around your budget. with a company with a lot of history.

Cabot Watch Company

After checking your budget, I would perhaps consider a Luminox Patagonia (tritium powered, natch!) or a General Purpose Field from Marathon. Check Amazon, they're readily available…

At that price the Boldr Venture Automatic is a good bet. 200m wr with a screw down crown. Titanium case flat sapphire crystal. But the movement is an nh35a.

I appreciate the suggestions thanks, a few I have known about but still don't quite have everything I want, I'm getting picky and fussier, a few quartz and mineral crystals in there too!, The Boldr is So.so..close!, (I still might get one)

The SWC Bunker is definitely on my radar, shame about the logo and excessive writing but it has everything and more!

Just to add I have had the Gruppo Gamma Ventura 2 and many other more expensive Nh35 powered watches which are great but when I can get an Addiesdive/Steeldive for under £100 with the same movement, with sapphire and a screw-crown I wonder why the huge price difference?
