Buyers have been overwhelmingly impressed so far: One said: "Wonderful watch at (an) amazing price. Very happy and watch is gift for my son's 30th birthday". Another added: "I couldn't believe the price of this watch when I saw it. I thought there was some sort of mistake. It did take a while for the watch to arrive (from Germany I think) but the quality of it is amazing. This is a Christmas present so I can't comment much further but I can say it looks and feels amazing."

Another was thrilled: "Excellent product. A very nice looking watch which has attracted many compliments. Good quality. Definitely thinking of purchasing another", reports the Express.

However, one disgruntled buyer voiced their concerns about a potential defect in the product: "This is utter rubbish. When you pull out the crown to adjust the time it wobbles and feels like it is going to fall apart. The dial doesn't look as blue as the photos. The bracelet is so light I was sure it wasn't metal."

Meanwhile, Amazon has plenty of options in its men's watch collection ahead of Christmas, offering items like the OLEVS Men's Chronograph Watch with a date dial for just £39.99. Additionally, Argos is providing budget-friendly options such as the £19.99 Sekonda Men's Blue Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch.
