Impressive & 5 stars in this price range
By Parker H.
I bought this watch instead of a Seiko Diver and am very happy with it. In my mind the Japanese quartz movement wins out over the inexpensive automatic movement in the Seiko for accuracy. The nearest competitor might be an Orient automatic diver (Orient is a Japanese watch company partly owned by Seiko).St. Moritz started out making Momentum watches specifically for the diver market. They are very popular among people in the industry, and the watches are also very stylish out of the water. They don't simply copy established watch designs. The watch has a very nice weight, a solid link bracelet and a smoothly operating bezel with a screw down crown. The overall size is closer to a Rolex than a large Seiko diver, which I think looks better on the arm. At this price point, you won't be disappointed!

Not Exactly What I Expected
By Bill
It's really a 3.5 star review, and it's not because the watch is poor quality. It's just not what I expected after viewing it on the site. The color of the dial is not nearly as rich as the pictures portray. It almost has a "baby" blue quality to it instead of the radiant color online that caught my eye. There is a wave-like design on the dial, which you can see in the close-up pictures. What it doesn't show is that those waves catch the light and reflect back, highlighting each wave (check out the customer image that I uploaded). That might appeal to some, but it's too distracting for me because you have to angle the watch in order to get a clear view of the hands.The size of the watch is reasonable, it's not one of the huge stop-a-bullet watches that weighs more than a power tool. It's got some weight to it and it feels solid. It's thick enough to feel and look substantial, but not overly chunky. The bezel also turns nicely and it clicks into each position accurately. Each hand, including the second hand, points accurately across the entire dial. I've only had it for a short time, but the watch arrived with the correct time to the minute, and it's still right on, so I predict I'll have no issues with it losing or gaining time on me.I like the look and feel of the band. However, one thing worth mentioning is that I usually have to remove a couple links when I get a new watch. With this one, not only did I leave all the links in, but I also pushed the adjustable pins to the largest position. It now fits just right, but those with very large wrists should take note (I'm about 6'1", 215 pounds).What I'm trying to say is that I like the size, fit, general style and quality of the watch. I expected a different color and I also expected the wave-like design on the dial to be more muted. No matter what level of excellence in quality a watch has, it must look good in your eyes. Because it didn't look as I'd expected, I removed two stars.
