Latest Acquisition - Duro Batman

So I finally got this today and I'm just mindblown. I had heard and read rave reviews about this watch and how it's possibly the best VFM watch and now I know why! It's a crazy good watch for £50 !

The build quality, screw down crown and even things like properly aligned bezel are just proof that great quality can be attained at such low price brackets. I've had much more expensive dive watches with misaligned bezels and screw down crowns that got stuck within a month.

Despite its larger size, it sits comfortably on the wrist and I find the stock rubber strap also to be fairly supple and comfy.

I mean, it's really hard to find any flaw in this. Even the seconds hand hits each marker perfectly!

This is the cheapest yet one of the most satisfying purchases I've had. Need to stop myself from buying all colors :p

The MDV-106 is a classic and a go-to for many watch enthusiasts 😀 That "Batman" colorway is IMHO the nicest looking of the bunch! 👍 👍

Hello you beauty, unrivalled value for money that watch!👏🏻👏🏻

Welcome to the Duro Club! Value for money is unbeatable with this pieces. It feels much heavier and pricier than it has any right to be. But that's what makes it so appealing. And if anything happens to it, it won't break the bank to replace.

Bill Gates famously wears one. I need to pick one up too!

Yes, I read that too. I must admit it did affect my decision a bit :)

I have one also. I changed the strap and put sapphire crystal in, and it ups it again for about £30 all in.

Amazing! Will surely think of doing that some day
