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.


I have gone through so many watches. Before I got this watch I did not have one because I am so rough on them. I have had this watch for a little over a year. The band is just wearing out. One of the straps has broken, but you can order new straps for $20 or $25 depending on if you want leather or nylon. I had the leather, but I am going to try the nylon. This is a 3 Chrono watch, but I have yet to learn how to really use the 3 dials. I plan on learning how to use them, but unless you really need a Tachymeter just get one without the Chrono dials. I find the 3 adjustments are a little hard to use, but everything seems to work as it is supposed to work. The face of the watch does resist scratches. I have a few, but like I said my watch sees plenty of time in the woods fishing and hiking. I would suggest you take the watch off in the shower even though it is water resistant to 100M because after a year of showers my band is dry and brittle and the one strap is broken. If one strap breaks you have to get another one because you will lose the watch eventually or damage it. It has fallen off my arm several times and lucky for me I have found it both times. The watch keeps very accurate time, but I usually keep my watch a few minutes ahead on purpose. Overall, great watch, probably not worth $300, so look for one at Costco or the big box stores. I would recommend it though. The watch is very stylish and works as both a dress up watch and a casual every day watch.
