This is the best watch I've ever owned,
March 30, 2006 N. Greene (Maine USA) - See all my reviews
I shopped around quite a bit before I found this watch. I have owned several decent watches and this is my favorite. I like the quality of the stainless steel case. The watch feels very solid and well-made. I also really dig the rotating bezel. I actually use it a lot to time things, more than I ever used the stopwatch on a digital watch. The movement is Japanese and keeps excellent time. It looks great and the band is comfortable. The backlight works well, and I often don't even need it because the glow in the dark hands are very good and glow all night. I've actually had people comment on how much they like my watch. The face is clear and easy to read.
I actually bought the Freestyle Shark X Yellow watch first but I didn't like it. The backlight only worked on the digital window and the watch just didn't have the quality feel of the hammerhead. I returned the Shark X and bought the hammerhead.
Amazon seems to have the best price. I lucked out and got this watch...Read more

Good looking and functional,
June 27, 2008 Zippity Doodah "Nick" (Phoenix, AZ) - See all my reviews
The stainless steel is brushed and has the look of a more costly watch. I've gotten quite a few compliments on my Freestyle and I wear it for everyday and out on the town. The band is comfortable and the holes in the band for the clasp are within 1/4" of each other and span about 3" making a custom fit possible unless you're the Hulk or Twiggy. "Hammerhead" is imprinted on the bezel with "660 FT" at 12 & 6 O'clock.
I actually dive with my watch but never deeper than 50 ft (15M). The face and bezel are easy to see under water without touching any buttons on the watch (a submerged no-no).
I like my watch and would buy another one but with a limited lifetime warranty, I shouldn't ever have to.

Stylish and Durable,

This review is from: Freestyle Men's FS75401 Hammerhead Polyurethane Watch (Watch)
I have owned this watch now for 8 years and still appreciate its style and functionality. I have dived with mine on numerous occasions down to approximately 100' with no water intrusion or condensation forming. I am now on my 3rd battery and second band and do not foresee replacing this watch anytime soon. (Note: This watch originally came with a neoprene band when it was purchased 8 years ago. The band was comfortable but tended to start to smell after extended wear, especially if worn running or other similar activities, requiring a bath with wetsuit soap.) One comment is that you should not attempt to replace the battery on any dive watch yourself. It is worth the extra money to have it replaced by someone that is capable of testing the watch to ensure a waterproof seal to avoid damaging the internals.
