Armitron Sport Retro Men’s Digital Bracelet Watch, 40/8475

Favorite watch
Very high quality case, display, crystal, and band for the price. Of all my watches the armitron steel case pieces “feel” the most expensive and high quality. I love the weight and band adjustability and while the display is gimmicky, it’s very cool and a great conversation starter. I do think the display LEDs could be a little smaller. They’re very easy to read and I understand wanting to improve on the illegibility of the old school pulsars, but it’s a little overkill. If the type face was about 20% smaller this would look a lot more inspired and stylish. Absolutely great piece in the black finish which has held up very well over 6 months. Would recommend to anyone looking for something unique. Not great if you do work that requires you keeping your hands on things since you can’t view the time without hitting the crown.

Great retro timepiece for any size wrist
The “Save with Used – Like New” example I purchased did not come with the original packaging as advertised, and the packaging used did not inspire confidence. However, the watch did arrive with no visible flaws and functioning properly, so I’m satisfied.The watch itself is a great retro timepiece packed with nostalgic style. This updated version features larger, brighter numerals than its predecessor, so while it may not be completely faithful to the original, it is much easier to read. The case construction feels solid, and the sliding carriage on the slim bracelet allows a precise customized fit. The 37mm case size and very short lug-to-lug length means this watch wears well on a wide variety of wrist sizes. If you’re a fan of digital watches, you’ll be more than happy with this in your collection.

Slick little multi-occasion watch with a better bracelet and casework than Casio
I’ve always liked the classic style Casio digital watches. I got this in gold, like my gold A168. And overall it is just a better quality watch in looks and on-wrist. With this style, you lose continuous display, and things like countdown/stopwatch/alarm functions. But you get it in an all steel case with nice, if not simple finishing (the polished sides w/beveled top edges is great in natural light.) It has improved water resistance. Just right on its face, it’s a bit classier, more stylish than a gold Casio A168.The biggest thing though… is they corrected the bracelet. It looks identical to Casio bracelets but as a guy with 2″ armhairs, this one is far more comfortable and very rarely grabs hairs. And when it does, it’s not nearly as aggressive.I think it comes down to how much better they articulate. The Casio’s have a narrower “max radius” where if you try to bend them past a certain point, the curve locks in to become more circular. This one follows the boxy outside edge of my wrist more closely, rather than having a propped up, perfectly round little ‘bridge’ over it. At that bridge, the Casio bracelets pull all of the hair out in just a couple of days.They even seem to do better laterally. The links sway and twist a little more. When you’re wearing it, and the excess of the bottom band is tucked under the top band, the top layer slides freely while the bottom part stays in place. So where the bracelet DOES move while worn, it’s up above your skin and I think that stops 90% of the hair grabbing all on its own.

Loved the retro look
Perfect for the price I get more compliments on this watch then other budget watches costing ten times the amount. I do wish the bracelet was better but I bought this to see if I wanted to drop the money for a Pulsar and I loved this so much I still have not got the pulsar.

Excelente y bonito Reloj, lo recomiendo gracias

Without any doubt this is the best retro watch for your money. Any negatives about this watch is quickly forgotten by the coolness of it. The led light is big and bright and very easy to set the time.It’s a little bit on the smaller side but actually wears on the wrist a little bigger. I purchased the Gold and the Silver and love them both.I can only hope that Armitron comes out with a bigger version of this watch. If you’re looking for an affordable retro digital watch that’s super cool this is it.Thanks,G
