Is this good?

I've been keen on it for some time, but I'm not sure about the brand. Anyone using Nautica? I wanted to get Seiko 5 sport but this one costs 1/3rd of that.

Does the compass inner layer move?

I mean, I like the look of it, but have never seen it before.

Edit:

Went and had a look as I was interested myself — they even had so,etching close to a style of watch I was looking for. Unfortunately, they seem very overpriced for quartz fashion watches.

In my experience Seiko can have a lot of issues.

So I'd expect this to have x10 that many issues. And might just fall apart with use.

I don't think going cheap is worth it unless it's a proven brand.

If you don't need that big crown then there's loads of nice ones from Citizen and Casio from $50 to $150.

And they are super reliable and will probably last for decades. So you get x100 better value and you'll enjoy them more I think.

Further to my other comment:

An Orient is cheaper, has an automatic movement, and whilst less detailed overall in design terms, is pretty much a similar look to this. Basically… try a Mako II.

For me…

My search for a cheap diver/chrono with as much steel and silver as possible, in the style of a a Tag Heuer Chrono Link continues — though Nautica came sort of closer than Invicta. No silver dials mind you.

More ideas. But really you should browse their websites. These are just ones I like personally.

Sorry a few of them are a bit more expensive.

And for $110 on Amazon, I think it's a good price for what you'd get.

Nautica makes a good solid quality watch. I have some now and have had some in the past. Some have Miyota movements in them. Some have Seiko movements and some have Citizen movements in them. If you like it, get it. You won't be disappointed. In my WRUW pictures today I was going to wear a Nautica watch. I thought about it being Timex Tuesday so I went with a new one I got instead.
