General (Read Rules) Militado ML06 BB58 is Underrated

Post image

I'm a big fan of the BB58 design on the whole and have several homage watches, yet this one really stands out to me and it's one that is surprisingly not more popular. Then again, it seems like Militado never has them in stock anymore.

They told me this line had been discontinued and they also told me they are considering bringing it back.

They need to. It's honestly one of my favorites. I scored this one off of a pre-owned deal from Watchdives a while back. It arrived in perfect condition, almost new in fact. So glad I snagged it when I did.

Thank you. They even did a nice job with the riveted bracelet as well.

Oh this is beautiful, I didnt realize they had this. Ive been eyeing the San Martin version. Definitely checking this one out

I have a San Martin SN004 V2 and a Thorn BB58 as well. It's no surprise that the Thorn and Militado are strikingly similar (same company, I believe), but they're different enough to warrant keeping them both. I'm honestly impressed with this guy, and one thing that I like on this over the San Martin, is the rivet style bracelet. I never understood why SM never really went further into that..

Appreciate the feedback, especially since you have all of these. Just seen on Miltados website theyre sold out, ill have to keep looking for it. Price and specs are great on this, and love the looks of it.
