I first heard of Reactor in Saltwater Sportsman magazine. One of their target markets is sport fishermen. Anyway, it's a great looking watch as are many of the watches in their line. It's well made using quality materials and the finish is top notch. The latch and lock on the bracelet are top notch and not found on watches at this price point. The case is quite heavy and made from stainless steel. Sure it's not a "fine" Swiss watch but it has the look and feel at a fraction of the price. I've had this model for about 6 months and the Japanese movement keeps perfect time. I did somehow scratch the crystal pretty bad and I'm sending it back for repair. I'll post my experience with the service as soon as it comes back. All in all, at $400.00 it's well worth the money and I'd be confident to recommend this brand to anyone.

Sent the watch back for repair. Filled out the form and enclosed $20.00. Received an email from Reactor when the watch arrived stating that they had in fact received the watch and were replacing the crystal. They did the repair and I had it back 2 days later. Great turnaround and awesome customer service.

I just got my Reactor Gamma from UPS yesterday. Let me first say that upon opening the cool metal case to reveal the Gamma, I was struck with the rugged sporty look, and the quality of craftsmanship that went into creating this hands down masterpiece. No I do not work for Reactor, nor am I a paid spokesperson either. But I have purchased many watches {some more expensive but not as well built) in my 48 years and I will tell you this watch is by far without a doubt or hesitation the best built, best looking, most comfortable watch I have ever owned so far! The illumination stayed readable throughout the entire night. Amazon got it to me fast, and Reactor with it's unconditional 2 year guarantee has a new and happy customer. If you are in the market for a well built, good looking timepiece then the Gamma is one to consider!

I just received my Reactor Gamma 53501 to add to my small collection of watches that includes Casio G-Shocks, Citizen Attesa and Seiko. I am very impressed. HEAVY DUTY and HIGH QUALITY CRAFTSMANSHIP is the first words to come to mind. This watch is obviously built to last and to look real good while doing it. Happy customer of Amazon and new fan of Reactor !!!
