Croton Mens CA301020BKBK Silver-Tone Black Dial Watch

Product Review

Blending elements of classic timepiece design with handy contemporary additions, this gentlemen's Croton stainless steel watch will become a treasured accessory for years to come. This large, round watch is topped by a unidirectional rotating bezel with a black enamel plating and Arabic numeral 24-hour marks in white. It also offers a white triangular zero-point and machine ratcheted exterior for a firm grip. The black dial is supplemented by luminous dotted hour markers, stylized silver Arabic numerals at 6, 9, and 12 o'clock, small minute indexes, artful luminescent hands (with seconds hand), and a magnified bubble date window at 3 o'clock. The case and stainless steel bracelet have a silvery gray rhodium plating, and the bracelet mixes satin and polished finishes. Other features include Japanese quartz movement, a scratch-resistant mineral crystal, and water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet)--offering protection from accidental splashes as well suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and light recreational diving.

Ok Deal on Sale But There Are Better., May 8, 2007

First, they don't have a "lifetime" warranty because Amazon is not an authorized dealer. They have a five year "limited" warranty.

Second, cheap watches do not have to look cheap. Unfortunately, this one does. The dial looks cheap and so does the bezel. The movement is loose inside the case when the crown is out. The band is rough, ugly, and yes, cheap. It has a screw down back but no screw down crown. After a month or two it is unlikely it will be water resistant in the shower much less at 100 meters. If it keeps good time it will be fine as a beater watch but don't expect to impress anyone at your next social gathering. Croton makes some really nice and well crafted watches but they also have several low end lines and though not at the bottom this one is close

. I got mine on Amazons Friday Sale so I got an Ok deal. For the full price, Amazon has a number of watches that would be a much better deal.

This is a great casual time piece. It has kept accurate time for the few months I have owned it. It is light weight and comfortable to wear. I love the Croton watch line for their price, versatility, and durability. It does have an easy to read dial with a good magnifier for the date. It does look and feel like a much more expensive timepiece. Remember, watches are like puppies...they all want a home.

For the price it is hard to complain, but as I look at the watch right now and get irritated with the condensation build-up in the center of the face, I have to pass it on. This is a flimsy watch. Don't be fooled with the mark down, as I don't believe it is worth more than the $30, you commonly see. You get what you pay for.

Cheers!!
