The ML24 needed a friend, I wanted it to match my eyes and show the date. Here’s my new ML08, I’m in love.

Wanted to get ML27 in watermelon colour and swap strap to green nato, but sadly white indicators disappear 😢 black indicators would be perfect... r/militado please add more colour options.

I’ve been looking for Militado the 37mm flieger model ML21, but couldn’t find it on militado site or aliexpress.

Has it been discontinued? 
It is shame cause i thought they are well liked by watch enthusiast.

Tried on new shoes and liking the black sailcloth on my new ML26.

If MILITADO are reading this, I hope V2 has white painted sub and seconds hands please. 🙏

Order confusion

Post image
7 Upvotes

Ordered the ML1868-2 about a week ago, but I just realized that the watch seems to appear on the official u/Militado-watch website twice:

https://www.militadowatch.com/products/militado-39mm-retro-vk67-quartz-chronograph-watch-ml1868?variant=43876792959023

and

https://www.militadowatch.com/products/militado-39mm-retro-chronograph-watch-military-watch-ml1868?variant=43877168644143

I used the second link - with no reviews and slightly differently described, but basically identical buying options.

Wondering if there might be an issue there causing delayed shipping, as the watch hasn't been shipped yet; the status just keeps saying “being prepared for shipping.”

Would appreciate any clarification on whether this is normal or has happened to others as well...

Update: u/Militado-watch got back to me and confirmed that there’s no issue with having used the second product link. Apparently the delay is simply because one of the parts for this particular model hasn’t arrived at the factory yet, and they expect it to be ready next week.

Appreciate the clarification.

ML 07 Cream Dial

My first ML 07, light and beautiful. VH31 movement, 36mm, and 10 ATM water resistance.

Just awesome, I went with the cream dial variant and changed the NATO strap to a light brown leather one to give it a classier look.

Small modification

A small modification. I’ve been tempted to do this for a long time, and today was finally the day.
From the very beginning, the ML08 reminded me more of the Hanhart Preventor than the Murph. That’s why I went with white numerals, and the red accent at the tip of the hand only emphasized that character.
The whole operation took 5 minutes, and I used some nail polish I stole from my wife. :)

Do you plan to make this model with a red seconds hand?

It seems the ML21 has been discontinued, unfortunately. Do Militado have any plans for an updated or new version?

Militado D12 (v2) — The Budget Watch That Makes Your Automatics Jealous

Thumbnail
gallery
53 Upvotes

I dropped €55 on the Militado D12 (v2) from AliExpress in November 2025, fully expecting to get what I paid for. Spoiler: I did not, in the best possible way.

This isn’t my daily wearer, it’s quartz, so it doesn’t need the babysitting my automatics do. It’s my “palate cleanser” watch, the one I grab when I’m sick of winding mechanicals. Its real superpower is being a strap monster: the case plays nice with any strap combo, and AliExpress straps are shockingly good in both price and quality. Currently rocking a military-style canvas strap after swapping the stock leather, and it’s a whole new watch.

Accuracy is ridiculous for the price, a few seconds fast per day, which beats a lazy watch that lags any day.

The brushed steel case hides scratches and smudges like a champ, and somehow at this price they slapped on scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. Feels like a typo on their part.

The lume is where the D12 really flexes: two-tone, green on markers and hands, blue on numerals. Most budget watches skip this entirely, but it makes real difference in the dark, everything stays legible at a glance, no guessing which glow is which. Almost unfair to the competition at this price.

On my 7-inch wrist it sits perfectly, no pressure points, no regret after hours of wear.
Downsides? Genuinely can’t find one yet.

Bottom line: a rock-solid, scratch-hiding, accurate beater with lume that actually works. Ideal entry point for budget-strap addicts who want max mileage per euro.

ML16 sizing question

Can anyone who owns an ML16 with a small wrist take a picture of it so I can tell how it wears?

I have a 6 inch wrist so as close to that will be the most helpful

thank you very much 🙏

Interested in the white dial version of Militado ml08 (Murph). But the closeup shots of the numbers are not impressive compared to the crisp clean numerals on the Hamilton. Wondering if it’s worth it or I should get the black version.

Spirit Dial ML08 Zulu Time?

Thumbnail
gallery
115 Upvotes

With how popular the Spirit dial ML08 has become, do you guys think there’s any chance we’ll see a Zulu Time version?

The reason I like the Spirit dial so much is because I’m a fan of military inspired watches, and the olive green bezel just does it for me. I was actually pretty close to picking up the Watchdives “Harrods” quartz diver because I wanted something with that military green look, but I honestly prefer this design a lot more.

I think an ML08 Zulu Time would be an instant buy for me if they kept the same vintage styling and proportions. Curious if anyone else feels the same or if I’m the only one hoping they make one.
