Excellent service lovely watch

Excellent watch as described. The face is very clear and easy to read.
Service was superb, quick and efficient. I have no complaints and would certainly use First Class watches again

its light is poor -the hands you cannot see the time clearly -and no date on it?all in all very poor to see anything clearly !

I recently bought a Citizen Eco Drive Divers watch from first class watches and as the name surge ts, the watch and service I received was first class, I got a discount off an already discounted price, which was very nice and with free next day delivery, I couldn't be happier with my purchase, I would buy again from First Class watches in a heart beat.

Ok, so to set the scene I have *some* watches, but by no means am I a massive watch person. I have one home watch and two work watches, none of these are more than maybe £200 (which I consider to be alot!) and none are classic, automatic timepieces. I like watches that require little or no fussing, and look good. Simple principles really.

And with those simple principles in mind I sought to rid myself of a watch I can't really read very easily. I currently have my "brown" watch as a Rotary Chronospeed, which is essentially a homage to the Brietling Navtimer. A beautiful chronograph with a cream face. Problem being with a lack of colour contrast and being slightly colour blind, I found it amost impossible to tell the time without a long hard stare.

So I decided that clean and simple was the way to go. Bauhaus.

In steps the Braun BN0021.

This is a clean, well built and elegant watch. To try and communicate it's looks I gave thought to the type of person that would typically wear it:

Swiss Architects.

Yes this is a Swiss architects watch alright, you could take the face, scale it up and mount it on a train platform somewhere in Basel and it would not at all look out of place. Add to that the very well crafted and immediatley comfortable leather strap, the hidden pin placement and the almost perfect sizing of the face and numbers to the overall size of the watch and I'm in Bauhaus heaven.

Do I have ANY misgivings, yes a few:

1. Everyone says "Braun? You mean the guys that make razors?" - Yes, little did I know that they have been well known in watches and clocks for many a year. A good friend and massive watch fanatic steared me towards them.

2. I miss being able to check the date - I never realised how much I look at my wrist for the date, as well as the time until I can't do it anymore. Perhaps I will get used to it, perhaps not. Time will tell.

But, in truth, the misgivings are small, the design is beautiful and elegant and the build quality is faultless.

This might be my first Braun watch, but it will certainly not be my last.

Well where to start... my bf absolutely loved this watch i bought for his bday. Very manly looking and a sligtly big watch. Which is good as my bf is a tall stocky guy so suited him well. Didn't look lost on his wrist. Lovely feel to it and not too heavy. I cant believe how cheap this website is. Its about time people did deals on exspensive things like watches. Deffo buying my next present on here for christmas. Quick delivery and very quick response on email. Looked just like it said on the tin :) thank you

Super quick service, the watch was perfect and I am sure will give years of pleasure

From the presentation box to your arm, this is a handsome watch. Simple to set and with an overall feeling of quality. Beautiful slim silver hands which show up well against the black background and easy to read day/date. The bonus is of course never having to worry about batteries. Good value for money and a post-purchase sense of great satisfaction.
Don't hesitate!

Ordered the watch which arrived the following day. Throughout I received updates as to the whereabouts of the package. Very impressed with the packaging and indeed the watch itself. Really hope that my partner will be delighted with his Christmas gift

Fantastic service with first class and a fantastic watch from Hamilton. First class are a company I'd be more than happy to recommend and I hope to deal with again in the future
