Review on ⌚ Stylish Precision: Gotham Silver Tone Analog Railroad Watch - GWC14101SB by Gent Dobson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality jump

I like the watch very much. I'm trying to learn to live with pocket watches; I've always been a watch lover. This watch is an improvement over the cheaper ones and the quality shows in the details and the added weight. One detail disappointed me. I was looking for a dial with high-contrast, easy-to-read Arabic numerals that would be easier to see at a glance with older eyes. Although the hands appear white in the photos, they are actually a shiny plate of chrome. The watch needs to be held at the right angle so it doesn't reflect my surroundings. Flat mineral glass already reflects quite a bit. This is a small detail and only occasionally annoying. Otherwise I really like the watch and I'm getting used to carrying a watch in my pocket.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • For pensioners
