Nautica watches ?

[Davor Dundovic]

Hi all !

Does anyone have any experience with Nautica watches
(www.nauticawatches.com) ?

I'm looking for a wristwatch made of titanium that has chronograph and
date and day of week functions, all analog (without LCDs). Also the
price of this watch should be up to $300.

So far only watches that fit in this criteria are couple of Nautica's
models.

Now I'm interested what's the quality of those watches ? I'm unable
to find any comments/reviews on the 'Net.

Are there any other alternatives ?

Regards, Davor.

I bought a Nautica at a dept. store for about $60 several years ago.
For an inexpensive quartz watch it works fine. Once it gives me any
trouble, it's going in the trash can.

Thanks for reply. I've already lost hope of getting any. :-))

I believe that Nautica (along with Timberland and Guess?) have
licensed their brand to Timex. Therefore a Timex factory somewhere is
making the watches for sale under Nautica's name. I'd assume Hong Kong
or mainland China.
This may be OK if you don't pay a lot. I have a quartz Guess
Collection model I got at a Time Factory Outlet Store and it seems
like a nice watch for $60.00- stainless steel case, screw down crown,
nice textured dial, 100 meter water resistance.

Wenger (of swiss army fame) makes a watch that is similar to what you
want. It is called the GST air. However I believe that the watch may
have been discontinued. I own a GST sea (which is similar but made
out of steel, the air model was titanium). It is a pretty good watch,
as far as I can tell, (I tend to break things very quickly, and it
lasted me a while. I did finally break it, but I dropped it on the
marble floor of my bathroom on several occasions). (btw, it has an
antireflective sapphire crystal, which is a bonus). See if you can
find it, it really is a great looking watch.

The list price on the watch was about $500, but I got mine for half
that. If you can still find the watch, it might fit your bill.
