Victorinox Swiss Army Men's 241343 Summit XLT Black Dial Watch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've owned many watches primarily from swiss army but this is the first from victorionox,and honestly is one of the best watches ive purchused(for the price). To keep it short ill list its strengths and weaknesses in a pro con chart.
pro
-offers military time in the inner circle of the watch
- bezzle(rotating wheel on the watch) is very clear and offers little numbers for minutes although i wish they had continued the numbers past 15
- THEYRE NOT LYING WHEN THEY SAY ITS SHOCK RESISTANT, i wore this when i was learning to do a handstand(dont ask)
if i had tryd doing it with my old watch the symbol at the top wouldve fallen off
- Very nice band it has little notch kind of things on the inside which i think siphone out water(just a guess) and since in live in a climate where the average is 110 in the summer thats very helpful with sweat
- the illuminators( make it glow green in the dark) are very hard to see except on the bezzel which at first seems redundant but ive found it helpful in certain instances
cons
- im a little torn on whether i like the date function covering the 4 instead of 3 it.
- thats honestly the only thing i wrong with it i honestly think its the epitome of watchs for this price
WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i bought my watch on amazon with gemnation as the supplier of it, and while it says its a deployment clasp when mine came it was a buckle( which i was actually planning on switching the deployment clasp to when it came so thank you very much gemnation )
A LITTLE NOTE
while it seems like i like this watch alot im not a person paid buy amazon to write a review about this watch however the other review seems to me like its written by a paid person but thats just me.

UPDATE---/////7-9-10 /////
I noticed that the bezel has become a little loose i.e its easier to turn(making it better in my opinion) and i forgot to say that the illumination will last all night but its incredibly dim however still its readable you just have to squint alot i still enjoy it but im moving onto a TAWATEC automatic w/ tritium its not available on amazon=(
