Bertucci 11015 - Watch for Men, Strip

After owning now for three days, the watch is fine, very light, I think the strap may actually weigh more than the watch body....the combination 40mm watch with 22mm strap is ideal for a regular 7" wrist size. Note that the actual watch doesn't have the words 'DX3 Field' as shown in the product image, as the image is an older version. The watch I have matches exactly with what you'd see on the Bertucci website, so all is good. What makes this a better option for me from all of the Timex watches that I used to have is that the 'tick' on this Bertucci is very quiet (unlike the Timex which you can hear across a room), you have to get this close to your ear for it to register...another positive. Not sure how long it will last or how useful is the so-called 'luminous' number markers & watch hands, but as I don't have any plans for night-time covert operations, then this won't really bother me. I like the fact that this style doesn't have one of those tiny pointless date windows.....and the nylon strap I assume will loose some of its rigidity with daily use. All in all, it appears a good watch for regular daily use at work, and so far I am pleased with it. First time I've bought from the Amazon Global Store. Expect a longer delivery time than usual, this took about 2.5wks to arrive from date of purchase, but again that's fine, no big issue.

Such a pity that it was let down by the lume. What is the point in making a field watch with luminous hands but in the dark you can't tell where they are pointing? I returned the watch which wasn't as easy due to it's international supply source . I have only given 2 stars because even though the watch looks to be very well made, it does not do what is expected of a field watch

Love it. My strap is a little scratchy on the inside so I remedied that with tape.

El reloj es bueno, para lo que vale, pero lo he pagado al doble de su coste. En la página oficial se vende a 75 dólares (72,02 euros) y aquí lo compré por 145€, por descuidado, por no mirar. Incluso vino con la etiqueta del precio. Es un reloj de 40mm, pero les recomiendo a todos los hombres que busquen modelos 42mm o 44mm de la marca porque puede que resulte muy pequeño de proporciones. Los relojes "field" de cualquier marca suelen ser así de compactos. Es liviano, los acabados mate en negro lo hacen un reloj bello, otro para la colección. Quitando lo del precio, que me ha parecido una puñalada, el resto está bien.

This is the first watch I've purchased in probably 10 years. I got used to having nothing on my wrist and checking my phone for the time, but was informed that it's not "stylish". After binge watching hundreds of YouTube videos, I decided that (1) I like the aesthetic of a field watch with a Nato or Zulu strap, (2) I wanted to keep this purchase simple (under $100, quartz movement) to see if I would actually wear it, and (3) if I did start wearing a watch regularly, this could be the "outdoor beater watch" going forward. Other main contenders were Timex Expeditions and MK1s. The Bertuccis eventually won out though, because they seemed a little more "field" and because of all the helpful reviews on YouTube. Next I agonized between the polycarbonate DX3 for about $65 and the stainless steel A-2S for about $100. After deciding on the DX3 for my beater watch use case, I then agonized about which color to get. I ended up going with the black DX3 with black strap because it happened to be on sale. So far I am happy with this purchase. I really like the look of it in person. The nylon strap is very comfortable and sturdy. The watch itself is exactly what I expected. The polycarbonate material is light but feels well made. The face is simple and easy to read. (I don't need any complications: I'll still use my phone for the date or a stopwatch). The second hand doesn't hit all of the marks exactly but that's fine with me. The watch seems to be a great fit for my wrist, which is about 7.5 inches. It's not too bulky either, so it may work in more formal settings ("field-formal"). The lume looks awesome when it's fully charged up. It dims down pretty quickly, but is still helpful in the dark for a few hours. I appreciate the little touches to help avoid damage, like the crown being located at 4:00 and the recessed crystal. The time is 20 seconds ahead time.gov after about two months, but I was not precise when I initially set it, so don't take that too literally. I noticed some reviews mentioning the second hand becoming detached. Hopefully this is rare occurrence and would be covered by the warranty if it were to happen. I like the all-black look a lot, but would consider getting another Zulu strap to swap on for some contrast (maybe khaki?). For a next watch, I would consider getting a higher end Bertucci if I wanted another quartz. I also like the idea of something mechanical, especially with hand winding - maybe a Vostok or a Hamilton.

I've worn it for three years and the battery hasn't died yet . The band is the best strap I've ever had on a watch I don't see how you could ever wear it out. Much stronger strap than a G-Shock. The mineral crystal does not scratch. I use this watch for welding and grinding and the crystal is starting to get pitted and nicked almost time for a new watch but it still works great. Will buy another with the date feature next time.

Très jolie montre, sobre et confortable. J'enlève une étoile car je la trouve un peu petite... alors qu'en photo elle semble plus grosse, style "commando". De plus la pile ne dure que 4 ans, c'est un peu juste... mais satisfait de mon achat, surtout pour le prix. Et ce n'est pas une montre qu'on a l'habitude voir sous nos latitudes françaises. 🇫🇷
