I highly recommend buying Timex, Casio, Orient, Citizen or Seiko rather than this brand.

Agreed. Can get a VAER too around this price range if you like the field watch look.

Looks like a field watch without the 24 hour markers.

There is a Glycine for sale at around 150 seems like a better option

That is fair, and I would likely choose the VAER S3 Tradition for the same price. That said, it's traditional field watch sized (36mm) rather than aviator (42mm), comes with a nylon strap, and the Miyota in the VAER is slightly less accurate than the Ronda in this one--though it's a bit moot for quartz. The cheapest you get into a field watch with the Ronda 5 series is the Luminox, I think, which is still hard to find retail under $200.

I would go with a Citizen Garrison over this any day, but then some people care about the "Swiss" thing way more than I do.

Feels more like an aviator to me: the IWC or the Startimer: https://alpinawatches.com/product...utomatic-1

It's a aviator/pilot watch design, which is like a field watch, but bigger, with an oversized crown to be usable with flight gloves, and a simplified, high-contrast dial to provide at-a-glance visibility in less than ideal conditions. It's essentially the first cousin of a field watch.

Product Description:	Inspired by the clear, highly legible instruments found in vintage aircraft cockpits, the Alexander Aviator A601 combines classic pilot-watch design with modern Swiss craftsmanship. The black analog dial features applied Arabic numerals, bold sword hands, a date display at 6 o'clock, luminous hands, and a signature triangle marker at 12 o'clock for quick readability. The round, silver-tone 42mm stainless steel case houses a precise Swiss Made Ronda 505 quartz movement beneath a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. The oversized fluted onion crown enhances the aviation-inspired character while maintaining excellent usability. Finished with an olive suede leather strap measuring 22mm wide and a stainless steel tang buckle, the A601.02 offers a comfortable vintage-inspired fit for everyday wear and travel. Water resistant to 50 meters (165 feet).
