My 8yr old son really wants a “real” watch. He likes my Maratac Large Pilot, but obviously it is huge. He likes the pilot style. I also think having the inner hours and outer minutes would help him. Any recommendations on a kids or smaller pilot style watch, from a reputable brand? Trying to stay under $150 probably.

Lorus field watches. there is one with full lume dial that might be cool for a kid. These are 38mm or 36mm I think.
Berny titanium field watch or pilot watch.
Thanks. I think the Berny might be the winner. He liked it the most. I’ll have to look up some reviews, do you have any personal experience with it?
I don’t but there are plenty of video reviews on youtube.
Just keep in mind the properties of titanium: it’s much lighter than stainless steel and it scratches easier than stainless steel (if it’s not treated to be scratch resistant).
I wouldn’t get it on the bracelet.
Yeah, I’ve had a couple of Ti watches. Will definitely be using a nylon / canvas strap for him.
