This watch is perfect for men who like to have a nice watch that looks good with any outfit, but who also don’t want a watch that’s blingy or over the top. It has a nice sleek look to it and my father loves it! Would buy again.

Je suis très content de mon achat, la montre est arrivé dans sa boîte métallique en parfait état. Le mécanisme fonctionne toujours tres bien après un mois d’utilisation quotidienne ( conduite, danse et marche pour les activités les plus sollicitantes ). Le seul point un peu nul est le bracelet en cuir qui se donne et pour lequel il faut être soigneux en la mettant au poignet. Mais sinon elle est très belle et ira aux poignets les plus fins.

I’ve bought a lot of watches over the years, this one is by far the best quality.
Purchased for my husband as a gift, he loves it. The leather band is well made, well stitched and comfortable. Sized correctly, it doesn’t look “too large” on his wrist and doesn’t get caught on his long sleeved shirts. The packaging is great, too. 10/10 would buy again.

I have had my watch for a couple months and worn it several times. It looks nice, feels sturdy and is really easy to use. I was looking for a nice, basic watch that didn’t break the bank and this is definitely it.
The biggest downsides to it is that the leather strap is a little rough, snd it gathers dust and dirt in every crevice. I worked the band in quite a bit before wearing it, but unless you wear it daily, it will probably need some extra help. As far as cleaning, I typically can just blow out the lint and dust, but long term, I am unsure how the watch will handle it.
Overall, I do like the watch, and it is a great purchase. As of this review, I would definitely recommend it.

The watch comes with a sturdy metal case that is great if you need to travel and want to pack a watch in your luggage. The rose gold hour markers contrast beautifully with the deep dark brown face of the watch. The dark, rich leather strap is very comfortable and goes with a lot of outfits. The only complaint I have is the first retaining piece for the strap does not move so you need to bend the strap a bit to place it in the retainer. I can see this creating additional wear on the strap over time. The lugs are at a good angle for my wrist and the height of the watch is a nice 1/2 inch or 12mm. At the price of $90 it’s a fantastic watch. As long as it’s properly taken care of I imagine it will last me a long time.

This watch is really classy and beautiful, but the only thing that i really missed cuz it really looked so nice is the date, it does not have it. I bought another one that does and I like to see the date there behind the hands, but yeah, this one doesn’t have one. Overall, really nice watch!
