(More customer reviews)This is my third Wenger - the first was the "Wenger standard issue" watch I bought ten years ago and despite tons of use and a few new batteries is still ticking superbly - the second diver watch I gave to my brother for Christmas two years ago - and this one I just bought somewhat on a whim. I also have an ESQ dress watch.
The Commando arrived in four days in perfect condition. The case is beefy stainless steel -- aka imagine 3-4 Kennedy 50-cent pices stacked on top of the other. The leather band is also beefier than the photo shows. It took a few days to curve around my wrist, and is now very comfy - Wenger bands are wonderful. But the watch's best attribute is its cool factor.
The face has bold markings - making it the easiest of those I own to read without glasses, as well as in poor light. The black/white/red face is sleek, and despite the complexity of the dial, it's well laid out and easy to discern. The crystal has a magnifying quality, which helps readability as well.
No scratches yet, but I've only had it two weeks.
I've not gotten it wet, and try to avoid doing so despite the claim of water resistance.
Mostly, it's just a cool looking watch, like none I've ever owned, and I think it's a great addition to my (small) watch collection. Unbeatable quality for the price.
