Wenger Men's 70433 Nomad LED Compass Watch Review

Wenger Men's 70433 Nomad LED Compass Watch
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
There are other reviews for this watch but with red or yellow stitching & lettering - I guess the green makes it a different model. Like others have said, the band is unusually short. It fits me fine on the second or third to last latch-hole which is okay, but if you have big wrists you'll need a different band. And the tiny bit of excess band may pop out of the retention loop, which might get annoying.
I like the rubberized band, too. The watch is very comfortable despite its size. It's not too heavy but feels solid and high-quality. Most other compass watches I saw had all kinds of features I didn't need, like altimeter, thermometer, etc. This is a simple, functional watch that is classy while also sporty. I'm a big fan of keeping things simple (and working).
The LED screen is invisible so it looks like just an analog watch until you press a button. (Of course the buttons and the unnecessary text give away the fact it's digital.) Other reviews also mention how the hands of the watch are not Luminova but the numbers on the face oddly are. The company says this is because the glowing hands would interfere with the LED read-out, which makes sense. I like that the numbers glow anyway, but I guess there's no point in it. The compass displays the direction as a number on a 360 degree circle, so you have to think a second to figure out your direction. A simple "N" "NW" type read out would do - no one is using this to navigate the jungle (I hope). Alternatly, putting the numbers 0-359 (or 1-360) around the bezel would be useful.
Summary:
It's odd how short the strap is, but it fits an average wrist. There are two loops to hold down the excess band on the exit-side of the buckle. I cut one off. It's peculiar that the numbers glow but the hands don't, but at night you have the LED display anyway, so whatever. The compass takes some getting used to, but it does lend it greater accuracy. It's easy to calibrate the compass, easy to set the date & time, and easy to use the watch. It looks, feels, and works great. I love it.

The watch is great but came with a small defect.
When this is happening make me re-think if I should trust certain websites!
First time it happened to me. Bad luck I guess

The black, red, and silver color scheme of the Men's Battalion Chrono Watch makes this eye-catching watch standout. The sporty timepiece also bears a pedigree: Swiss company Wenger was one of the original manufacturers of the Swiss army knife in 1908, and the company applies the same exacting engineering standards to its products today. The silver dial boasts luminous hands, red accents, and three subdials. A date window showcases the day of the month at the four o'clock position. Cased in sturdy stainless steel, the watch is protected by a durable mineral crystal. It's also water resistant to 330 feet (100 meters). This watch fastens to your wrist with the help of a comfortable stainless steel bracelet band that closes securely with a diver's buckle.

The Wenger Nomad is the most stealthy ana/digi watch I own or have seen. Except for the four pushers, 2 on each side, you would never guess it has digital capabilities. The sun ray black face is beautiful, with stylish, easy to read hands. A push and any button reveals a large easy to read, red digital display, with all expected functions, time, day, and date. The surprise function is a digital compass that not only works well, you can enter declination for your location so it is accurate too. The only short coming of this watch is the rubber band. If you have a wrist larger than 7.5 inches you will need to purchase a larger band. I would not let that stop me, though, this is a very unique and sporty compass watch. Of course it is Swiss made, and the quality shows.

I absolutely love this watch. It looks great and is very easy to read. It is a larger watch, but not so large that it is cumbersome. The black on black color is very stylish.
My only negative about the watch is actually about the band. The watch has come off of my wrist twice because the pins that hold the band to the watch aren't that strong. Both times I was clapping my hands when the band separated from the watch.
