Best Military Watches

GA100 is a quartz watch. It does not have any extraordinary functions. It’s just a watch with a standard set of features that works well and stably. The manufacturer promises the battery life is to last for two years. Like any other G-shock, the GA-100 has protection from bumps, falls, dives (here - to a depth of 660 feet). You can use it in the gym, on a trip, on a hike - it will serve you faithfully.

The watch has two large buttons on each side of the case. You will quickly figure out how to use them without instructions, especially if you have already used G-shock before. The top button on the right turns on the LED backlight. Some people may consider as a disadvantage the fact that the light is uneven on the dial. It comes from a single bulb. Time is displayed in 48 cities of the world (29 time zones).

The alarm is pretty quiet, so we would not hope for it if you need to wake up in the morning and not be late for work. Anyhow, it can remind you of some events during the day. You can set five different signals. All in all, GA100 is a reliable and stable device in its price category. Although there is no wide variety of options, all of them work perfectly.

Timex is a developer and owner of exclusive lighting technology. More than fifteen years ago, the company patented it under the name Indiglo, and it acts as the brand's claim to fame. Indiglo backlight technology uses unique material that provides a higher contrast between the background of the dial and the numbers themselves. Thanks to that, you get an easy, quick, and convenient reading of the figures.

Another advantage of Indiglo lighting is that it is very economical and uses less power compared to other backlight systems. You can be sure that the battery will last for a long time. Anyhow, a bang-on illumination is not the only option for which you will love Timex. It has a set of features that make the use of watch even more pleasant and productive. In addition to the main dial, the watch has three sub-dials that track minutes, seconds and 1/20 seconds during 30 minutes. You can easily set the date using the Quick Date function. Note that you don't need to turn the crown for every 24-hour. Simply, pull the stem halfway out and turn it to set the exact date. Timex military watches have a significant water-resistance of 330 feet and are highly resistant to strong shocks.

The DW5600E-1V is a quartz watch that belongs to the Casio G-Shock range. Like all watches in this series, they have excellent shock and water resistance. In this case, water-resistance reaches 200 m which allows you to do even scuba diving at a depth of 20 m. Needless to say, in these watches you can take a shower or go to the pool - such loads are entirely trivial for them. Watches work perfectly in both fresh and saltwater. They withstand heavy shocks and falls from a height. In addition to displaying time, the device features include an alarm clock, timer, stopwatch, and a calendar. You can see the date and month in the upper right corner. In the left corner, there are the current day of the week, alarm icon, and the time of day. The bottom line shows the present time with seconds. Also, you can find there a timer and stopwatch. The backlight starts to blink every time you use timer, alarm, or stopwatch. This option is very convenient if, for example, you forget that you have a timer running or when you activate the signal in the evening. The DW5600E-1V offers four alarm options: daily, monthly, dated (for a particular date) alarm, and alarm for every day of a specific month. Mineral glass protects the display surface, no plastic.

Palada is just a good watch with a minimal set of additional options. Such a watch is perfect for athletes, active tourists, and just people who need a reliable mechanism in any weather conditions. The T7005G is water-resistant. You can be sure that it will not break if you get caught in the rain or take a shower. However, the watch cannot stand the great depth. Therefore, it is not suitable for divers or snorkelers. Anyway, if you happen to swim in the watch, do not press any buttons in the water. These actions may cause a malfunction.

Keep in mind that the T7005G does not have real barometer and compass. Even though you can see the corresponded icons on the dial, these features are present only in the form of decoration. Therefore, if you really need them, the watch will not work for you.

Despite the minimum set of options and simple design, the CakCity 1068 demonstrates high reliability and accuracy of the movement. No failures and bugs. Your watch will never be too slow or too fast. The built-in Taiwan IC chipset guarantees a stable and durable watch work.

Another plus of the CakCity watch is its almost huge numbers on a large black dial. One glance is enough to scan the information. It is very convenient while you, for example, are running or riding a bike or a horse. The dial backlight is implemented with high quality. Due to the great contrast of colors, you can quickly distinguish the numbers on the dial even in the inky darkness.

The watch has a solid rubber case. As in the majority of models in this price category, producers use mineral glass to cover the dial. The main advantages of such glass include high strength, a rare occurrence of scratches during operation, simple polishing, long product life, easy maintenance.
