4.0 out of 5 stars
Great watch for the money., July 15, 2011
This review is from: U.S. Polo Assn. Men's US8170 Analog-Digital Black Dial Gun Metal Bracelet Watch (Watch)
Ive read negative reviews here about this watch. If I were paying over 22.00 bucks for the watch, I would still think its a good deal. The people who say they cant see the digital part on the watch face, must work inside a dimly lit place, or they are not familiar with reverse LCD. It works sorta like e-ink, the digits that dont change every second use no power to display. Take the watch outside, in the sun and the digital part reads fine. This is a substantial watch, meaning heavy and bigger than a regular sized watch.
If you need perfection in a watch, dont buy this watch. If you want a cheaply priced watch that looks more expensive than it cost, buy this watch.
The color is indeed much darker than the picture suggests. It is not gunmetal gray, but a variation of what appears to be dark chrome. Very dark. The pushbuttons are chrome, bright chrome. The band also has a plastic/rubberized material the first 4 links of the band from each end of the face.
The dial reads "Japan Movement".

Bad quality watch, October 11, 2011
This review is from: U.S. Polo Assn. Men's US8170 Analog-Digital Black Dial Gun Metal Bracelet Watch (Watch)
I got this watch using birthday money and I set the analog and digital times synchronized. After a few hours, the analog time starts to get a little off. Also, I had it in my bag with clothes in it, and when I took it out, the second hand swung freely when i shook it and whin i wasn't shaking it it moved very slowly. this all happened within a month of when i bought it.

Great for telling time plus..., January 28, 2011

I have to say it is a good watch. I love the fact that it's heavy in weight and easy to operate. The band however is more of a gun-metal or chrome in colour, much darker than pictured. Overall, it does what it's made for.
