Mens Watch Review




This is labeled as a mens watch, water proof, and with a leather band. The appearance is decent as it does appear to be a business casual style of watch. Now you will need to understand when you order this watch there is no instructions that come with this watch. I have done a web search on the watch that has helped me figure out most of the functions this watch offer.


The watch has imprinted on the back that it is water proof to 50 meters. On the Amazon page is says do not press any buttons or pull out the clock adjust arm while under water or it could damage the watch.


This watch actually has a glass face which is not normal for a budget price ranged watch. Normally they have the plastic face pieces like you find in most scratch resistant glasses. Next the band is actually made from genuine leather. This is also imprinted on the inside of the band. The rest of the watch housing seems to be made from stainless steel. This is really nice for bringing out a bit of shine to the wrist. The watch seems to keep up with the current time since I have purchased it. This has been a little over 3 weeks since purchase date.


To start with adjust the date and time there is a round knob on the side of the watch that pulls out. There are 2 stages of the knob being pulled out. You can feel it click into each stage as you pull it out. The first click set it in the mode to adjust the day of the month. The second click the furthest out spins the hands of the watch to the proper time. Pressing the button back in will start the watch again.
The two other buttons on the side of the watch on both side of the clock adjust are a stop watch type of system. They control the 3 other dials on the face that are not the day of the month dial. The upper dial is a 2 second clock segmented in 2 tenths of a second incriments. Next the bottom dial is in total seconds. This has hash marks at the 20, 40, and 60 seconds. The last dial on the left is a minutes counter like the one on the bottom with markers at the 20, 40, and 60 as well. Now the buttons are very simple on how to work these. You press the top button the dials engage and start counting. Pressing the top button again stops the dials. Pressing the bottom button resets these 3 dials to zeros.


Now my issues with this watch. First off the no instructions is a horrible way to ship anything that has random buttons to push. The watch has the label of being a mens watch. I would not have been able to wear this watch past the age of 16. The band is not geared for anyone that is not a toothpick. Lastly the gear on the side of the watch where you adjust the date on the watch stopped working on the first time I tried to adjust the watch. It spun through 4 days and stopped and has never moved since. Therefore the watch never tells me the correct day of the month. I am hoping that is a flaw with only this watch.


If you are looking for a watch that has a decent appearance and seems to be built well at an affordable price this is one you might want to consider. This watch is water resistant, stop watch, leather band, stainless steel housing, and a glass face. I would like to thank The Revolt Electric City and affiliates for sending me this watch to try out and share my opinion.
