if your a pilot and you are 200m underwater, something in your slide rule calculation has gone rather wrong

LOL BLOODY RUDDY AWESOME. I have to confess, I kinda like the gold one 😂😂 Enjoy it my friend! I hope all is cushty over there. Cheers, T.

You crack me up...great presentation. Late to party, but I bought this a couple of years ago because of TGV! Never loved it, but I didn't hate it either. Little wrist time and paid about $230 for it from Jomashop. Prices have since skyrocketed so might flip it? Thanks for reminding me how to set the alarm! Cheers... and stay MAD!!! 🤣🤣🤣

This was the first Christmas gift I ever gave my fiancé’s son. He was 13 at the time and he still wears it daily, 10 years later.

LOLLLL, I have never heard cricket described as the great game between MAN AND STUMPS haaha!

These videos are so well done...funny and good review too! Current favorite channel.

I bought one about six months ago. First thing I did was chunk the bracelet and replaced with brown leather strap! Love it, wear all the time and get many compliments for it! Thanks to you and Urban G for reviewing. It made my decision to own one easier.

Still love this watch and still want to add it to my collection. Many thanks as always for this excellent review, your time and efforts to share this with us all.

Great review on the flightmaster Russ! I do like mine on a comfy nato. Keeping my fingers crossed in case they ever reissue this stunna!

Well done and welcome Stan! I had one of these and really wanted to love it, but couldn't get past the small size of the time-telling face -- those slide rule rings make for a surprisingly small face and short hands. Stellar review!

Yessss Russell! Great informative and entertaining video as always! Bring on Christmas I say! It's going to be top of my list!

Well done MWC. Love my 5610 solar as well. A true stunna! I have my Flighty on the Volmer mesh from LIW and it looks OEM and is very comfortable to wear daily.

Excellent! I adore my Flighty. I didn’t know about the Omega. I learned!!!

Just ordered mine… I’ve been holding off for a long time. Then browsing through your channel and ended up here again. Now off to look for some straps for my new Flighty 😁👌🏻

Always so entertaining. Great review as per usual

LOVE the Flighty! One of the biggest "bangs for the buck" in the Seiko line up. TGV turned me on to this watch 3 years ago when I first got into the hobby. GREAT watch. Fun watch. Get's a lot of comments when you wear it. Thank you Russell as always for a GREAT video! Appreciate ALL you do for the watch community.

Fantastic episode mate 😉 very smooth throughout. Definitely Will be picking up a flightmaster 😉

Love your video. Your style definitely uncovers aspects of this watch that I hadn’t noticed before. Understand the reaction to bracelet, but after trying nato and leather options (yes, I have a 21mm leather strap) I am back on the original bracelet because it is the most comfortable (for me).

Yay, a new character! Good work MWC!

Another great video Russ matey, gotta love the old Seikos, thanks for putting me and my watch in Casio corner, a great honour, have a great weekend

Congrats on your originality and a good review to boot!

Always thought too busy , but you may have convinced me . Great stuff

Really great video on this useful beauty. Top two or three video on this watch. Well done! Love my Flightmaster. I don’t like big watches and was also concerned about how it would look to me on my 7” wrist. Wears like a dream (without that garbage bracelet of course). I use a black parachute NATO style strap. You inspired me to wear mine today 🤘🏼

Love your video. Great edits! 👌🏻😎👌🏻🇨🇦

Great video. I’ve owned 2 of these. The first I modded with a Crystal times Saphire domed Crystal (purple Ar coated). It looked awesome, but lost the water resistance. It really bugged me, so I flipped it and bought another and left it with the stock Hardlex. I have the TGV style ndc strap, but I actually like the look and comfort of the stock bracelet, but totally get the criticism it garners.

great review, convinced me to pull the trigger! if you don’t mind clarifying, was it the Royal Mail or DHL (duty on delivery) option that you chose on Creation? Also UK based. Thanks!

I have had an SNA411 for years and I like it a lot. On its fourth battery. It, and a Citizen Nighthawk, were my both “gifts” I bought myself after getting my pilots license in 2007 so they sort of have sentimental value. Both are amazingly cool tool/pilot watches that won’t break the bank.

Brilliant - I bought one thanks for a great review.

Gives a Breitling a run for it's money. Yellow hands are lovely. Top purchase Mr Mad 👍

Great review love using creation watches another watch to consider.

Love the new character Second hand Stan. Top work mate. Bit too busy for me that watch, but a bargain from creation watches. I've used them before and really recommend them too.

Great review, with some laughs too.. Subscribed. 👍

I got a new one from Creation Watches over two years ago for £170. Don't wear it a lot but I'll never sell as it looks too good in my collection 🤣

Been after one of these for ages but buying online from Singapore put me off! Looking to get one from Creation Watches which delivery option did you go for DHL or Airmail? Love the channel and great review.

Great review you crack me up like always 🤣

Great review, love mine. I have it on a Marine Nationale strap and used curved spring bars, gives you a little more room for the strap. Cheers

I have the the SNA411 on the NDC strap and it a nice looker. I also have the SND255P1, blue dial, on a blue and orange nato for a daily work watch. Both are great watches. Nice review MWC.👍

Like the new character. Do you have a Spotify for your music ? I like the song at the end.

What a great review, I have been looking forward to your input on the Flighty. It looks perfect on your wrist with NDC. You hit the pros/cons perfectly. I can live with the weird strap width and spring bar placement with a NDC. The black/yellow Barton strap looks perfect for it too. I may have to pick one up. The Flighty and NDC are a perfect combo. It is the most comfortable watch I own, and it actually looks nice higher on the arm. At 8.75" wrist, it wears like my Sub. I just love the Flighty's charm. It is quite arguably, the best bang for your buck out there. History, accuracy, no servicing costs for a chrono, gmt, 200M WR, screw down buttons, crowns. As you can tell, I adore mine. It sits next to watches that cost much more, but it doesn't look out of place. As TGV stated, it's an analog G Shock. hahahaha Dig the new character, perfect to add the investment Stanpoint.

Top work. Still on the fence about this model. Loving Secondhand Stan™️…😂👍👍

Awesome show as always MWC! Mr Pagani really made me chuckle this week 🤣 Secondhand Stan is a great addition too! This is the most comprehensive video I’ve seen on how the sub dials on the Flightmaster actually work. I actually almost understand how that 6 o’clock alarm/dual time dial works now! 😂 I’m no closer to being able to use a slide rule bezel though 🤣 For some reason I still really want a watch with a slide rule bezel 🤷‍♂️ I love the Flightmaster! It’s a total icon that I like many others first became aware of thanks to TGV. I absolutely love the look of the classic monochrome 80s RAF issued Seiko chronographs but this reference is the one I think of when I hear the name Flightmaster. On an NDC strap though of course 😂 I think a chronograph is going to be my next lower end watch purchase and it’s between the good old Flighty or one of those Sugees panda dial chronographs with the Seagull ST1901 🤔😬 You’re absolutely crushing it recently MWC. Keep up the great work 👏👏👏👏

Love it, will buy this year. What shade of yellow is the chrono hand? Discharge yellow or heavy cold? Great episode, I will buy one ASAP. Cheers, enjoy the sun 😎👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Bought one a few weeks ago. Love it. Mainly due to TGV, partly due to my thinking it might be future icon. Didn't mind the bracelet, but because of the polished sections took it off to keep it like new. Because you never know. Put it on an elastic strap (khaki green with a yellow stripe - of course) and then took that off and put it on a yellow nato. Curved spring bars helped there. Even learned some basic functions on the slide rule. Very interesting, well designed attractive little watch. It lives next to my Citizen Night Hawk now, and they spend all day swapping calculus.

I can rationalize a dive watch because I can swim, but I can't see myself getting a flight watch because I can't flight. But it is a cool watch.

Been looking at creation watches on this for a while but always been worried about the import tax. Thanks for the advice

Secondhand Stan 😂😂 you’ll thank me in the morning … 😂😂

Great review Russ. I really appreciate it as I've had this watch under my eye for a long time. Here in the US Amazon is selling it for $239 which is about £174. After watching your review I like it even more. I think it may be time to pull the trigger on this cracking piece 🙂 Thank you again and have a wonderful day 🙏👏👍👊

Love the vids lad, video idea: best value in-house movement

Sna411One of my favorite watches very beautiful design very nice build just perfect

Great review Russ. 👏

I love what you are doing bro. Very, very nice.

I love busy dials like these. I have the Citizen Nighthawk and I love it. I will definitely get the Flightmaster soon.

Got one over the holidays. Put it on an NDC style elastic strap but in black. I like it a lot. Great video.

Have it, love it. All those numbers and rulers that I don't understand somehow make me feel very clever.

Mr pagani is outstanding and super funny 😂😂😂 He should be in every video.... Good work.

I'm gonna try your method of installing the NATO on it tonight!!! Genius! I've been searching far and wide for curved 21mm lugs to fit never thought about what you did. Thanks!

Super review, as always 😎👍🙂

For some reason I’ve been avoiding this watch for years but I don’t know why 🤪 And I love TGV. However after watching your video…… I just bought one!!! 😁😁😁 Thanks for yet another great review!!!

Ok I have to say I laughed a lot watching this, wish all videos were the same. Good job man! You should have a comedy channel. Very good review as well.

Love it. I own it. I took the bracelet off immediate, basically before it was even built. Mine is on a 21mm barton elite silicone strap. Black and bright yellow to match the dial.

I see dexter picked up a new hobby, glad to see him fascinated with watches instead of blood

Great addition to your Collection Russ

It’s a great watch and a fantastic review! I’ve been a pilot for 28 years and I still can’t use the features of this watch’s slide rule bezel!!!! That’s what modern pilot apps are for!!! 😂

First video I've seen of yours. You made sure there was well thought content with the comedy.

What a fantastic watch! Loved this video... As always. ;)

I LOVE the flighty bracelet. Guess I like’em chunky. Also ANY leader/stitched leather strap will look amazing on any pilot’s watch… ❤

Love mine....it's a keeper!....another great Vid 🤣🤣👍🏻

Just bought the watch from creation watches using extra 10% discount. Paid the final price at the checkout £159. Amazing! Very good review 👍 Thx for your work!

This is my first time seeing secondhand Stan…I like him.

Got mine a few years ago, absolutely love it, have it on a 22mm bond nato with curved spring bars, also works on a 20mm… I get a lot of comments. An absolutely must for any collection..

Great video! Do not like the watch at all but found it very entertaining. amazing job!

Secondhand Stan ! awesome matey ! Bought mine from Amazon for £185 a few years back , of course TGV inspired me to buy , just like everyone else! keep on a bezelling my friend 😜

Have a look at steeldive watches, some say they're doing Seiko better than Seiko, and the price is a lot cheaper too,,great show by the way it's brilliant 👍💯🇬🇧

Hahaha. so fun to watch!, subbed

I bought one a while back and wear it regularly. I currently have it on a black, with yellow underside, Barton Elite rubber strap (they do it in 21mm) which is very comfortable. I bought some curved watch pins that allow me to put a Nato on it a bit easier. If you're struggling with the NDC band that might be an option you could try.

Another entertaining video. I think I’m gonna like Secondhand Stan!

Great watch I enjoy wearing mine .

About a month ago you said you used the default postage option when ordering your Flighty from Creation Watches This seems to be "Registered Airmail(with Folding Watch box and watch pouch)(3-4 weeks)" Is that the option you used? Also, where did you purchase NDC strap from? Etsy, or elsewhere? I've only recently come across your channel and it's a breath of fresh air. Also, I could do with seeing a video comparing Oris Aquis Calibre 400 41.5mm with the Tudor bb58. Any chance?

Entertaining video. Awesome!

Just got one about 3 weeks back and love it.

Love my Flightmaster. Very good video

Had Mine since 2013.. but got strap with the Flighty colours from Cheapest NATO straps....in Sweden & British Virgin Islands, Brilliant Stuff...Well Done Mate! Cheers!

great show, great watch! I like the new character

Pretty cool huh? Seiko magic n the lug to lug. Awesome review mate. Will you do a short on how that nato works?

Excellent tip about laying the strap on the watch and adding the spring bars... wish I had done thst, would have spared my Nato some wear and tear. But it does look tremendous on Nato. The bracelet gets a bad rap, I've enjoyed it on that as well.

I got it and loved for a day. Then I hated it for about 6 months and now I love it and wear it every Monday because the dial looks busy in an optimistic way. Apperently, according to my other KZfaq binge watching channels, having an optimistic mindset is paramount. Thanks flighty, thanks.

I wasn't keen but now it's growing on me. I really like the yellow seconds hand. Nice to see second hand Stan and Mr P. For a second when his moustache fell off I couldn't help but think he might be a distant relative of yours :)

With a paratrooper strap you wouldn’t be able to fit it through the spring bars anyways but I hear what your saying. Great review, you covered everything honestly and I like that you covered the price new / used and at different sites

Oh man. I think I need to finally break down and get one of these

Have owned this one for several years and it will never leave my collection of way way way too many watches! Price alert!!! Jomashop for less than $200 and that is the absolute steal!!!!

Got one, love it.

Mate the Flighty is an icon and a beast of a watch! I love wearing mine but I've just bought a Seiko Samurai Pepsi JDM so that my new favorite atm!

I agree-the Flightmaster IS a great watch with a super-cool look!! I got mine from Creation Watches too, but I ordered it on a black leather strap, because I prefer straps to bracelets..

You da man, ‘second hand Stan’ 👏👏👏

Just got the Flightmaster in 2022 for $299.00 USD off Amazon. I didn't know what to think of it at first, I was ready to send it back. I already knew the band was crap, so I had ordered in advance a dark green leather Nato style. Still on the fence days later (without wearing it), I put it on and took it outside. Right then, the dial blew up. As soon as the sunlight hit it, I was mesmerized. It was beautiful. I told myself, "No way am I sending this back." Then I added the Nato strap and now it looks and wears beautifully. The stock bracelet is heavy by itself. I like a watch with a little weight to it, but not where I'm mindful of it. Once I put on the Nato strap, the watch felt the right weight for me, and like I said, looks great. Fun Fact: I had bought a Blue Angels Nighthawk at the same time, the strap on that is beautiful, and the watch is great. But next to the Flightmaster, the dial looks a bit cartoon-ish.

Watched this and just bought a new Bezel and crystal for my Flightmaster so I can wear it as a beater watch.....Don't wear it enough!!! time to stop babying my favorites!!!! SNA413 Blue one is the beezknees, bought it last week... still in the Post....Bezel and crystal for that one inbound too!!!

I wear mine on the Rios IWC style strap. Looks the part and it’s 21mm. I choose to wear it on leather because it reminds me to not get it wet as I keep the pushers unscrewed so I can actually use them!

Had one for six years and only put a new battery in it within the last three months. My crystal is scratched from an early morning wheel change within the first two years of owning it, I occasionally put it on the bracelet but it spends most of its time on a black, quick release leather racing strap which looks great.

Bought mine about 6 months ago , got it on a limited edition single pass NDC strap. I always prefer saphire but this domed hardlex crystal is something else ! Stunning watch and a true bargain for what you get. The strap is not good so spoon it !

Can I ask how much was the import duty from Creation Watches? I've used them before but not for a while.
