With a swiss eta 2824-2 automatic movement and very handsomely appointed you cannot go wrong. The movement that is in this watch is placed in watches upto 5 x more expensive and some cant compare. Buy it before its gone forever.

I've been collecting watches for only a few years now and my biggest complaint is that everything I really like always seems to be out of my price range. For well over a year I've been wanting a Swiss made automatic watch more than anything else. Most of these watches start around $[...] bucks or so and the sky's the limit from there. Way out of my price range considering the present economy and job market:( I could have settled for something with a Swiss movement that was assembled somewhere else but that just seems to detract from the allure of having this kind of watch. Plus it's going to get harder and even more expensive to find these types of watches in the near future due to ETA (the biggest manufacturer of Swiss movements) restricting the sale of their units to companies that don't produce the watch in Switzerland with a majority of Swiss made parts.

Anyway, for Christmas I received a gift cert for Amazon. Seems like I finally got a reason to get my watch now so I settled on this one. I know Wenger isn't thought of when most folks shop for watches but they have a great reputation for the knives they make and they take the whole Swiss made thing very seriously. This watch is everything I wanted in features, looks and quality aside from a lack of prestige. And for the hundred bucks or so I spent outta pocket I couldn't be happier.

The watch is 40mm wide [about 42mm with the crown] and is a good size for my average sized wrist and hands. The black face is simple and clean with a nice circular wave type pattern and copper colored numerals and hands. The markers and hands have good lume that lasts for a decent amount of time and only watches that have bigger surfaces to coat or that use radioactive materials like Tritium have brighter or longer lasting visibility. The sapphire crystal is flat and almost entirely flush with the bezel. I don't know if it has any kind of anti-glare treatment but I never have any problems reading it. The crown is protected by it's guard which keeps it from being knocked loose or in the case of my Citizen Eco-drive completely off. The case back also sports a sapphire crystal which displays the best part of this watch: a Swiss eta 2824-2 automatic movement. These movements can be dressed up to look real fancy making for a more interesting experience but the Wenger logo etched into the rotor is just fine by me and I still can stare at it for quite a while. The case it's self is very classic having a brushed or matte finish to main body with the bezel, back and crown being highly polished. The black leather croc style band is very soft and pliable and lined with very soft tan leather which feels nice and would fit most wrists. The overall weight and feel is excellent with the quality of materials and workmanship to match. So until I can buy myself a Hamilton, TAG or even a Tissot this is one of the best watches you can buy at this price point and it has a 3yr warranty.

If you are looking for an good automatic watch at a great price you should give this one a try. I liked it so much a few weeks later I ordered a Wenger AeroGraph pilot style from Amazon as well (review to be written next).

I own this watch for 10 days. It's a nice, automatic, Swiss made watch that comes with luminous hands and hour markers. If the watch isn't worn it will wind down and stop after 40 hours (approx.). Suitable as a casual and also as a dress watch. I recommend it.Wenger Men's TerraGraph Automatic Watch #72766

I have this watch for a month now. It looks really great, elegant, you can wear it at the opera and with your favorite jeans. It is solid and works very well. A drawback: the manual is for all Wenger watches, and it lacks some details you might find useful; for example, how long will it run if you don't wear it?
This a very nice Swiss watch, and if the price is right for you I highly recommend it!
