After all the rave reviews I read I had to give it a shot... I ewas very skeptical as $100 buys you a great watch and The Patriot's specs left a little to be desired if you ask me... Given the specs, including the old non hackable but durable mvt and low WR, I would have oriced closer to watches like the non hackable Myota powered Benarus Sea Devil and Boschett Cave Dweller, maybe 500-600$.. well after owning it a few days and wearing it and inspecting I still can figure out WHY this watch costs 1400$ new(not what I paid for it) The mvt doesn't hack and is no ETA 2824 or even the new Myota... the crown is rough when screwing it in, the WR is 200M (same as my 70$ invicta Scooby
), the case is cool but the brushed SS finish is nothing to rave about, Boschett and Benarus older diver definitely were as good if not better in finish. No applid indices or super lume... and I'll say it again... the thing doesn't hack!!!
hammer.gif What it does have a real cool look overall and great wrist presence, it may be small to some though.. so anyway.. cool looking watch but way overpriced IMHO.
Bud this is the perfect sort of post for a new arrival where we could all pitch in and give our opinions. Just a thought...
