I got this Sector 650-series watch through one of those "one-day" online deals. I didn't need another watch, but this was a deal that seemed too good to resist.Here's what to like:this is a very stylish watch with a royal blue dial and white hands.The case and bracelet are very well designed; the watch has heft but is not objectionably heavy.It has a secure clasp mechanism requiring two buttons to be pushed in simultaneously before it will release, so the likelihood that it will simply slide off your wrist is very small.The crystal is sapphire, which means that it will shrug off encounters that would leave mineral glass crystals deeply scratched.The movement is an ETA Swiss Quartz 251.272 movement, which is very, very accurate--I haven't noticed any deviation from the atomic clock in a one-week timeframe.The watch is also rated as 200 meters water resistant, which means that you could swim with this watch and not have to worry about it springing a leak--so long as you didn't push the chronograph buttons underwater!The bezel is uni-directional, and has numbers in relief rather than being painted on.The screw-down crown makes you feel a lot more confident about the stated 200-meter water resistance.What's not to like so much:the chronograph hands are small and hard to see, but they don't "eat up" the number markers on the dial.The date change feature is a bit unconventional:you unscrew the crown and pull it to the second position, which allows you to move only the hour hand.You then advance the hour hand around the dial to arrive at the desired number in the date window.This feature also makes it easy to change back and forth between time zones.I'd prefer a quicker date-setting feature, but it's a minor inconvenience, and the ability to change times easily from different time zones more than offsets this problem.The bracelet could use some half-links to make getting a custom fit easier, but it has some adjustment holes in the clasp, which allow you to "fine-tune" the band's circumference.Overall, this is a great watch--and one of the handsomest watches I own.It's masculine without being overly heavy or bulky, and it is extremely well made.The dial is simply beautiful.The band and case are very neatly integrated, and the entire watch has an air of quality about it.Sector is part of the Italian company, Morellato, and is making inroads into the US.The company has a real winner in such watches as this one.This watch would look great with a wool suit or even a wet suit.I've seen few watches that "grab" me the way this one has!

the dial case is very beautiful, and that's exactly why i bought this watch. but the band is wide compare to other watches. the width is 25mm, not 22mm as described in the product specifications! i guess it looks better on a taller guy with thick and strong wrist.

Product Description:
Superbly crafted for the contemporary man, the Swiss Military Hanowa Men's Cervin Black Dial Leather Strap Watch is an athletic accessory for those on the move. Swiss designed the black dial with white Arabic numerals to mark the even hours and stick indices to mark the odd hours. Black indices mark minutes and seconds, and three exacting subdials display full chronograph functionality. A fourth subdial at four o'clock displays the date. An extra-length red second hand means you'll never miss a moment, and the sapphire crystal dial protects this punctual display from scratching. All of the accents are luminous for night reading. A black stainless steel bezel has a tachymeter to measure distance and speed, and four silver-tone screws connect the bezel with the stainless steel case. The black leather band has horizontal red stitching for added detail and uses a buckle clasp to keep this sporty timepiece strapped to your wrist. This watch uses precise Swiss quartz movement. It is presented with a black gift box and is water resistant to 330 feet (100 meters).
