After a tough, do-it-all field watch that still looks right in the city? The Welly Merck WM (model 157M-WM) ticks the essentials: automatic Miyota 8215 movement, sapphire crystal, luminous markers, water-resistant build and a compass bezel. There’s an Early Bird on AliExpress right now: only 13 units left, orders already placed, and a punchy price — €80.39 (56% off from €186.95). Check the live offer here: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_olYUs1H and, if you like, pay in 3 instalments of €26.79 with 0% interest.
Why it works so well day-to-day
The Miyota 8215 is a proven Japanese automatic: reliable, serviceable and with excellent parts availability. The ~12.5 mm case, clear Arabic numerals and strong lume deliver easy legibility; sapphire crystal shrugs off scratches far better than mineral — something you’ll notice in daily wear.
Outdoor-ready: water resistance + compass bezel
A compass-style bezel helps with quick bearings or simple timing, and the water-resistant construction adds peace of mind in rain or on the trail. Two finishes — BLACK and SILVER — let you pick between stealthy and classic. See both on the product page: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_olYUs1H and choose your look.
Final price with VAT included — no doorstep surprises
In the past, cross-border parcels could mean extra VAT, customs or “handling” fees on delivery. AliExpress now settles these up front: you see the VAT-inclusive price, and when legally required, taxes are collected at checkout. Result: no extra charges to the courier. For this Welly Merck WM Automatic the current price is €80.39 incl. VAT; there’s often a €10 coupon on orders ≥ €79. Check it here: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_olYUs1H. If the item ships from outside the EU, the mandatory amounts are still calculated in your basket — you don’t pay anything on the doorstep.
Avoid overpaying on “unknown” sites
This watch sometimes pops up at lesser-known shops/dropshippers with inflated pricing and paid returns. On AliExpress, returns are usually free and logistics are handled by the platform. Compare for yourself and don’t pay more than you should: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_olYUs1H.
User feedback: what to expect
Buyers highlight the build quality for the money, the genuinely scratch-resistant sapphire and the steady running of the Miyota 8215. This isn’t a delicate display piece — it’s a solid tool watch. Lume performs well at night, the compass bezel is handy for orientation and simple timing, and the ~12.5 mm thickness wears comfortably under a cuff. Ready to order?
