Mondaine

Beutiful Swiss watch, keeps good time, looks awesome, great price through STP

The picture of the watch on the website looked more elegant. It is just big, and bulky. I am sending it back.

This is the most usefull and beautiful watch I own. I collect watches and Movado will take a backseat now to Mondaine. The simple nature of the watch is its beauty. The accuracy is incredible the atomic clock is not much more accurate, I tested it.

Good thing it comes with a 2 year warranty, because your going to need it. I have this same Mondaine watch with a different finish that I have paid to send back to Switzerland factory 4 times in the past 2 years. I am still waiting for them to send me another "new" one, so I bought this watch from Sierra in the mean time. BUT it also had problems with the date window being unreliable, after setting the date, the date would not advance for 26-36 hours so the date is always 1 day or 2 days behind after initially setting it. You will have to reset the date at the end of EVERY month as well because each individual date dial has 10 digits. Also the lens will fog up when exposed to direct sunlight after about 2 weeks. I have another Mondaine watch that doesn't do that, and my wife has this watch in a woman's model that works great.

This is a fine example of excellent Swiss workmanship, as well as an icon of the Swiss Railroad, with the red second hand patterned from the red paddles held by conductors to signal departure. It is an accurate timepiece, lightweight and attractive. The tritium night vision feature is now owned by Mondaine having acquired Luminox and is a small wonder and convenience. My wife wears hers in preference to either a Rolex or Omega, both purchased in Swizterland, as do I as well.

Attractive for casual wear. Not designed for active sports.

Finally, I have been looking for a watch that I could read the face and especially the date. This is a high end quality watch with a nice thick leather band. I am very pleased with this purchase.

This is a very easy to read and accurate chronograph that is comfortable and simple to operate. Although some have criticized the leather band, I have found it to be very suitable even in wet conditions. It is made of high quality leather and does not stretch when wet. The fact that the Mondaine brand uses a Swiss quartz movement is another plus.

This watch is distinctive-looking, comfortable and the black face gives it an understated elegance. The second hand and date window are bigger than most women's watches. Not for formal wear -- I wear another watch for that -- but great for everyday.

Was alittle surprised how small it actually is. The price was a deal! And it is Swiss Made!
