Product Description

Rogue Warrior military watches were developed in conjunction with Commander Richard Marcinko to his tactical specifications. Marcinko, nicknamed the Rogue Warrior, insisted on a design that was not just the typical military watch, but one that would withstand the extreme rigors of a tactical combat environment. In his years as a Seal and Red Cell commander, compromises were never tolerated of his men or himself. As co-developer of the line of Rogue Warrior military watches, he again insisted that there were no shortcuts or compromises in the production of a rugged, dependable military timepiece. Numerous cutting edge and innovative solutions were incorporated in the watches' design and production. d3o, a proprietary material, and krypton, a gas rarely found in timepieces at any price, are just a few of the unique tactical elements utilized by the exceptional design team. Combined with Superluminova on the hands and index markers, the krypton gas forms 'Kryptolite' for unparalleled night viewing of the luminous dial. Taken together, these features total a unique military timepiece series ...the Rogue Warriors, ready for covert duty or combat dress.

This review is from: Rogue Warrior Red Cell Black Silocone Rubber Band 200M GMT Watch (Watch)

My Rogue Warrior Red Cell arrived yesterday. It was packaged very carefully, and the watch box itself was not expensive but very nice. Inside the box, the watch was carefully protected by being wrapped around a pillow and nestled inside a nylon pouch. This watch could have survived easily being tossed off the side of a building!

This is clearly a rugged military watch. The workmanship is excellent. The numbers and hands are easily seen and functional. The GMT hand is also easily seen for practical use. It's a very stout watch and larger than I expected, but surprisingly comfortable to wear. The band is a high quality rubber-material and also very comfortable. The crystal is very clear, non-glare and no doubt high quality. (It appears to have the quality and clarity of a high end Swiss mechanical.)

I highly recommend this watch to anyone wanting a tough and very functional military watch. The uniqueness and beauty of this watch also makes it a great candidate for a watch collection.

(I'm wearing my Rogue Warrior while writing this!)

This review is from: Rogue Warrior Red Cell Black Silocone Rubber Band 200M GMT Watch (Watch)

There is a lot to like about this hefty, rugged watch. It's big without being overbearing, with its 44mm width, minus the crown. While it is slightly heavier than my Seiko Sumo (SBDC001), I haven't noticed the extra weight or the chunkiness, for that matter, and the Red Cell should feel at home on the wrist of anyone who regularly wears a diver's watch . It has a fine combination of angular and curved lines, with the military aesthetic of a miscellaneous piece of hardware or instrument gauge. As a timepiece, it keeps fantastic time, as a quartz watch with a Japanese movement should, and having a date window is nice. The silicone band on my example is superb, with a remarkable softness and the signature silicone grip, which likely contributes to my not noticing the aforementioned weightiness of the watch. The black finish has a subdued gloss without being dull, brushed, or matte, and the green glow of the face indices lasts through the night, albeit a dull glow, nothing like Seiko's Lumibrite.

That being said, there are some features that I wish had been given further thought by the designers, Marchinko or otherwise. There is a non-rotating bezel inscribed with white numbers in five minute increments around the dial. On a watch that's meant to be a diver's watch, a rotating bezel is a necessity, period. While the watch keeps great time, and the second hand overlaps with the minute indices on the watch face, the minute hand does not overlap the minute indices, except at the larger indices at five-minute increments. Also, the second hand does not exactly mate up to the indices, ticking just slightly to the right of each in its clockwise movement. The small date window is placed at the four-o'clock position, angled downward and slightly awkward to read as quickly as one at the three-o'clock position, and it is framed with a bright silver, unlike anything else on the watch and, therefore, out-of-theme. There are two raised, checkered bars meant to protect the crystal, and, while they do not detract from the rugged, military theme, they obscure the 55, 05, 35, and 25 inscriptions on the bezel and will cause dust and dirt to collect at their attachment points, between the outside of the bezel. Frankly, a raised bezel would protect the crystal just as much, aside from giving the watch a cleaner look. There are two silicone band retention straps; the one furthest from the buckle is not very tight and often allows the end of the band to work its way loose. The watch face is labeled with the Rogue Warrior R-star icon and the words, "krypton gas." When I went to get the watch battery changed, the mall-store horologist glanced at the watch to find something to write on my receipt and stated, "Huh. Uh, black watch." While this watch's brand isn't immediately recognizable, I was more put out that, after the battery is changed, the krypton gas is released, and I would have to send it to the factory, in Germany, to have it refilled with the expensive gas. Therein lies my last complaint: although the watch is sold under the brand of an American hero, a former U.S. Navy SEAL, and is emblazoned on the reverse with "United States of America" (plus a strange-looking machine gun, "Rogue Warrior," the goofy "W.G.M.A.T.A.T.S.," and, AGAIN, "krypton gas" [rub it in, why don't you?]), the watch is made in Germany, although this information is nowhere to be found on the watch. Huh?

Don't get me wrong; I like this watch a lot. I wear it often, and I don't baby it. It does everything that it was intended to do, so, except for a few design quibbles, it's a superb timepiece. However, the four-hundred-dollar asking price is a bit steep for what is ultimately a rhino-tough quartz watch. I found mine at a considerable bargain, $150, used, on eBay. The semi-fancy box and gimmicky pillow the watch is packaged with neither serve any real purpose nor add to the value of the watch itself. I recommend the Rogue Warrior Red Cell, especially if found at below retail.
