Review on Gotham Gun Tone Mechanical Railroad Watch: Sleek & Stylish GWC14103BBK by Will Porter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for railroad enthusiasts!

A railway clock from 1910 had to meet certain criteria; 17 jewels, open face (white face available), Arabic numerals, precision and at least a size 16. This watch fits all but one; It's not a set of levers, so it can't be hacked. I'll trade it in for a more waterproof one. The watch is actually slightly larger than my grandfather's Hamilton S-16 and slightly smaller than my Illinois S-18, giving it a solid and chunky look that feels comfortable in the hand. The dial has been chosen to be easy to read. Accuracy +/- a few seconds per day. A choice of dial finishes and colors gives you a variety of options, including a white "railway only” dial and blue/black hands.” The warranty allows me, as a paramedic, to wear it every day with confidence. This watch not only tells the time, it is a working watch, suitable for display, but more convenient in a fire or hurricane fire structure. Finally, Gotham's customer service department is excellent. You can buy any watch from them with the knowledge that it is good or that they will make it good.

Pros
  • Clothing, shoes and jewelry
Cons
  • Annoying
