Bertucci Men's 12022 A-2T Original Classics Durable Titanium Field Watch

In the past 3 years I've been using an Apple watch (covering series 2, 3, 4 & briefly 5 too) every single day and suddenly started realized that its too much of a distraction and was out looking for a watch that does not break the bank, is light weight, durable and accurate... I personally do not like the heaviness and "attention grabbing shine" that Stainless steel watches bring to the table. Came across various brands that offer titanium watches and found this one from Bertucci which is not expensive and fulfills all of the qualities I was looking for.. Have been using this for the past 10 days or so. Below is my feedback about this watch: Likes 1. Light weight and yet solid durability, thanks to Titanium. 2. Really excellent water resistance (I swam at least a 2k-3k meters wearing this watch and found no issues with both the watch as well as the Nylon band). Make sure you screw down before taking it in the water. 3. Excellent in low light - luminous hands and hour markers glow in the dark. 4. Looks beautiful but at the same time not attention grabbing (that's a plus for me). 5. Nylon band is super solid, breathable and yet comfortable.. (you could tie yourself and it could drag.. lol you get the point!!) 6) Last but not the least, it's pretty accurate with Date and Time. Cons (not deal breakers though) 1) I felt 40mm is a little on the smaller side for my wrist. Prefer it to be at least 41 or 42mm. 2) The Nylon band when you wear it for the first time, it can feel a little too hard (meaning would not snug well enough). But no worries for a couple of days make sure to wear it while you shower or swim with it and it will get softer). 3) Two metal clasps can feel a little annoying if you work a lot with computers like I do but eventually you'll get used to it. 4) You need to manually change the date for months that does not have 31 days.. I still would like to give it a 5 star for its solid build quality and accuracy)

The watch is titanium so it is very light - you hardly know it is there. The strap is breathable and attaches to the watch so that will not come apart. There are no pins that can break as I have had in previous watches The knob that you use to adjust the time is positioned at 4 oclock not 3 as is usual whch avoid pinching your wrist at time when you move. The knob screws in to keep water out. The size of the face is just the right size. The batteries are easy to replace and last 3 to 5 years.

Really lovely quality for price, use it every day. Pretty sturdy and comfortable little watch.

I am returning it

This is an awesome watch! I have numerous watches most are more expensive but this is the one I wear nearly everyday. It is nearly indestructible! The one piece strap does take a little bit getting use to but it is so easy to clean and is not coming off your wrist. I have had this watch for nearly two years and have wore it swimming in the ocean, hiking, camping, and everyday to work. It is very easy to clean and looks almost like it did the day I purchased it. There are a few scratches on the titanium case but are hardly noticeable on the matte finish. It is a perfect watch for someone that abuses watches and wants just the time and date. AND it is ONLY about $100.00!!!! (the price has already increased since I bought mine). The only con is the end of the band without the buckle is not finished that well. The metal eyelet in the band that I use when I put it on also is showing a little stress, another band may be ordered soon. Pros; easy to read easy to clean good looking durable and rugged easy to change band light weigh assembled in USA Con; the band finish not a dress watch
