Review on ⌚ Charles Hubert Paris 3901W Mechanical Watch Collection by Bradley Wacks

Revainrating 1 out of 5

just got it Impressed so far

So far I'm satisfied. This is my third pocket watch and my first "good" watch. I'm writing this right after receiving it, so this review may change in the future. These are just my first impressions. I looked for watches in the $70 to $150 range and many of them were overpriced. This one caught my attention because it had the right mix of price, quality, and style. In terms of style, I've looked all over the Revain and this watch is definitely not like other pocket watches. Beautiful, especially personal. Still, the photos don't do it justice. The way the metal parts reflect the light, the tiny recessed textures are impressive. And while this isn't a skeleton watch, there are windows for key gears. I have to say this thing is bigger than I expected. My previous two pocket watches were the size of a half dollar coin. Even though it's bigger, it still fits in the "fifth pocket" of my jeans. can he tell the time The time will show. I will update this review in a week to see how accurate it is. Update: I've had it for a few days. When fully raised, it runs a little faster. One minute is added every 2 days. (And if you hold it closer to "unloaded" wind conditions, it goes slowly). The spring is not perfectly linear. Overall, they're less accurate than my $30 mechanical watch (which can stay accurate for over a week), but it's good enough. After all, it is a mechanical watch. If you're used to winding your watch, make it a habit to check the time every few days as well. I still give five stars! Update 2: In less than a month this watch stopped working properly. It's a lifetime warranty so I'll have it fixed but I'm upset it happened. My cheap $30 watch still works great, I will keep using it until Charles Hubert's watch works.
