Nautilus Automatic Dive Watches for Men,Mens Dive Watch 200m

The Pantor Nautilus is big, but light weight. Love the look of the watch and the watch band is very comfortable. Even though it only has painted on indices the lume is terrific and once charged lasts all night long. The watch keeps time well, after two weeks on the wrist and in the winder it was only off by 10 seconds, that's astounding to say the least. This probably is one of the best values for practical diver. Mitch B.

I am a bit of a watch fanatic and have quite a few, including some dive watches. We all love them, even if we don't dive, because they are the ultimate "tool" watch: rugged, durable, can take abuse, have that great timing bezel feature, heavy bright lume (not the ridiculous little dots non-dive watches have which are useless), and of course the sealed crown and waterproofness.There are reviews you can research on the watch addict websites and forums, particularly WatchUSeek, that have a large number of photos and extensive discussion and review of this watch, its construction and features, and its Pantor siblings. For those unaware, Pantor also makes the Seahorse, sea turtle, sea lion and one other I can't recall with depth ratings at 300 meters / 500 / and 1000. As if we need that.All my divers have steel or metallic bands and this was the first time I'd worn a silicone/rubber strap. It's actually great. It's a tad cumbersome to get it on and off (not just a flick as in the typical metal band) but man, is it comfortable! The lume, if you charge it properly, lasts all night. I barely ever take the watch off. The movement is a good one, it's both manual windable if needed and hackable if you want to synchronize. For those not familiar with hacking, you pull the crown (winder) out to the proper position when the second hand is at "12" which stops it. Then you await the time signal or just watch the display at time.gov for the US atomic clock. Push in the winder precisely as the atomic clock minute begins anew and you're synchronized. I let mine run a full week and checked the accuracy; it was a gain/loss of about 17 seconds a day. Very very good performance for an automatic in this price range. Personally I don't take mine apart to do fine adjustments in an attempt to get better accuracy; if you know the typical gain/loss, you can easily re-set once a week or so. Yes, we all know a crap quartz watch has better accuracy but which do you want: a piece of battery operated junk, or a minitaure precision factory buzzing away on your wrist?!In conclusion, I've owned many dive watches including the ever-present Seiko SKX and this one blows the doors off of that competitor for value. Much better movement for sure. Additionally, if you think the size is too large, there's a strange effect here. The Pantor is built into a "turtle" case. That is, the watch itself is mounted in and on a case that is larger than the watch. Kind of like a salad plate sitting on a dinner plate. The result is the watch "wears" smaller. It looks differently and feels differently than if the case and watch were the same size. I'd never had a turtle case before and it really works well.Hope this review is helpful to some of you. This watch is a great value, a high-quality timepiece with excellent features that compete with some that are 2,3 and ever 10 times the price. A good value!Months later update (Good and Bad);When unscrewing the crown to re-set the time (about once weekly), I noticed the rubber gasket was getting visible. Then it tore / or came apart and ejected itself out of the stem area. Oh no! No rubber gasket. No waterproofness!!I conducted a back and forth email correspondence with Pantor (in China), which as highly frustrating. It took endless time to get responses, and they were non-sensical. Finally I got some information out of them which basically said send it back for repairs. That would take forever; forget it. I'd rather buy a new one. So I asked instead to tell me what gasket I needed. They answered cryptically that I needed a set of 13 (!!!) gaskets. Fine, sell them to me. They wanted like $100 for the gaskets plus shipping. Preposterous. I was incensed.Instead I took it to my local watchmaker/repair place and said the gasket deformed and popped out. Can you replace the stem gasket and do a pressure test for water resistance? Sure! Inexpensive repair and now I'm back loving the Nautilus.Strange sage. My original comments stand. This is a great value. But the customer service sure ain't up the Nordstroms, or Seiko, or Rolex standards.

This is my 4th Pantor and and has quickly become my everyday watch to wear. I really like the Pantor design and quality and wanted an everyday watch to wear fishing, camping and in other outdoor activities and this was the best solution for me. The accuracy is acceptable with it appearing to run slow by a little less than 30 seconds per day, very close to my Seahorse and Sea Turtle. The lume is good for the price point. Yes, Yes I know, these are quality divers meant to function in extreme conditions but at 71 years old, extreme conditions for me are wading and fly fishing in a scenic fly stream and except for recreational snorkeling, my diving days are behind me. I just like divers. My overall feeling is that all of the Pantors are well designed, quality watches so if you like the design, pick the features and price point fitting your needs and try one, you will probably be very happy with it without investing thousands of dollars.

The watch is robust, well finished and the dial is very clear and legible. The subtle details like the nautilus on the caseback as well as on the crown really make it stand out to me vs other micro brands. For this price you're already tons better than the SKX value wise due to the superior NH35 movement as well as the sapphire crystal. I own this and the Sealion both, and I think they're amazing watches for the money. I highly recommend. My only gripe is the strap it comes on. It's very thick, and the buckle is absolutely massive. Other than that, the watch is excellent :)

The only flaw with this watch is the humdrum rubber strap, which I will replace. Otherwise, mine has been extremely accurate, great lume, solid bezel feel, perfect finishing and an almost glare and distortion free, slightly raised flat sapphire crystal. I really appreciate the 4:30 date window, solid finished signed crown and tasteful face and case back design. This watch kills a SKX007!

Great watch at a GREAT price. No problems and was packaged neatly. Thank youPantor!

I bought the steel toned watch. This watch has everything I want and then some. It is comfortable, has 660 feet of water resistance, has the sapphire crystal, the dependable Seiko automatic movement, can also be hand wound, hacks, and has a rotating bezel that works extremely well. The look of the steel tone to me is very elegant. The shapes of the bezel and case are exactly what I was looking for. This watch is sculpture. The light plays off the steel without the distracting clutter of color and without being disturbed by too much beveling or wrong proportions. The face is read with extreme clarity. Clarity and elegance are closely related. A quick glance immediately tells me exactly what time it is with no staring and no second guesses. This watch is both tough and beautiful. I like that the second hand is also steel toned. I really love the look of this watch. **Favorite**

Not only did it meet my expectation it surpassed it. Nice presentation on the outside to the best part the watch.

Probably one of the cheapest automatic watch you can get with a sapphire glass. The bezel feels really good and is not loose. The screw down crown is a little bit stiff, but you get used to it.The downsides would be the attachment of the bracelet are kind of loose and the luminova does not glow as much as I expected in the dark.

The watch is great. What is disappointing is the unexpected $117 in extra charges for duty. The watch is shipped from China and the stated delivery date could not be met. Would be helpful if they were upfront with this. Would not have made the purchase if I had known about the extra charges and delivery delay.

Great looking watch. As I expected!

Great watch for the price
