Uzi Swiss Tritium Military Watch for Men - Black Dial, Rubber & Nylon Band, Scratch-Resistant, 20ATM Water Resistant, Swiss Quartz, Protector Rubber, 43mm

Can I just say wow!!!? I mean really, for a great priced watch this thing has been put through the ringer time and time again, only to come out victoriously! I've owned this watch for years now, and simply have to write a review for it. I bought this watch before deploying with the army. The tritium hands keep their glow perfectly, and this watch can take a beating! This watch has been smashed, lit on fire, beaten, submerged, and still runs like a charm. I bought this watch in 2009 and the battery finally stopped working last week. Got a new on put in and bam, we're back and ticking again. The Uzi Defender is the way to go gentlemen, hands down.

This seemed to be an okay watch but one of the numerals (the 3) had absolutely no illumination so I returned it.

Everything was great with the UZI Tritium Marker Tactical Watch. Good quality and light weight. Low price compared to others.

This has been my daily wear watch since I bought it in March 2014 and, after two and a half years, I highly recommend it.I paid about $55 for this watch, which was a steal; it seems to sell now for about $70, which is still fair.If your main priority is excellent visibility in darkness, this is the best available value I have seen. I am often in theaters where momentarily turning on an electro-luminescent (EL) panel on a digital watch would be distracting or even annoying to the actors on stage, and the tritium hands and dial markers on this watch provide the perfect unobtrusive solution. It's also bright enough to read while driving at night without having to take a hand off the steering wheel to operate the watch.The quartz movement keeps extremely accurate time within a few seconds per month.It looks like a cheap plastic watch, which can be good or bad depending upon circumstances. In fact, except for the tritium hands and dial markers, it *is* a cheap plastic watch. It's good when you don't want to draw attention to yourself or seem ostentatious, especially as a target for mugging or robbery. It's bad when you dress better than casually as it seems incongruous with a suit and tie.I've owned significantly more expensive watches with tritium hands and dial markers, including market leader Luminox, and this watch is comparable in visibility and function if not cosmetic appearance. It's slightly less bright than a $300 watch and only the 3, 6, 9, and 12 dial markers have tritium illumination, but for under $100 it's an excellent value.The nomenclature is fairly obvious: The 001-N has a nylon strap, the 001-R has a rubber strap, the 001-M has a metal bracelet, and so on. The nylon strap has proven highly durable. The hook-and-loop closure is still working well. My preference is for the nylon rather than rubber strap, and it is about $10 cheaper, too. The watch uses conventional pins, so any ordinary band of correct width could be fitted.After about 18 months, the battery needed replacement. I could find no documentation about what kind of battery it needed, so I finally just opened the watch and looked: it wasn't working anyway, so there was not much risk. It turns out that it uses a very widely available type (variously called SR920SW, 371, or SG6) that I bought on eBay for $2.10 including shipping. (The SR920W, 370, or AG6 will also work, but is rated for higher current draw and is therefore unnecessarily more expensive in this low-current application.) These batteries are available on Amazon as well, but for $2 items Amazon tends not to be the best option. It has been a year since replacing the battery and the watch has been working fine since then.Water resistance is not good. I've seen condensation fog the inside of the crystal a few times, but it cleared up without any long-term consequences. Because I opened the case to replace the battery, I cannot fault the manufacturer. The screw-down crown is more of a gimmick than a factor in water resistance because the back plate of the watch is held flat by four corner screws into plastic. It would not be prudent to wear this watch while showering or swimming, but I've never had any problem from hand washing. Despite my skepticism that the design of the watch ever justified a 200m water resistance rating, the fact is that it has been running trouble-free for two and half years except for needing a battery change.The diving bezel actually works and is ratcheted to rotate unidirectionally counterclockwise, but you really don't want to go diving with this watch.The day-of-month calendar indicator assumes that all months are 31 days: after each month with less days it must be manually corrected, but this is a very minor inconvenience -- as long as you remember to do it. The date indicator can be independently adjusted by pulling the crown out halfway, so it is not necessary to advance the hands 24 hours to trip the date indicator.Overall, this is a decent plastic watch that is the most affordable option available with tritium-illuminated hands and dial markers.UPDATE: I had to replace the battery again, but otherwise the watch is still running strong after four years. Apparently the battery life is consistently 18-24 months, which is very reasonable.

Nice size very bright best price for a tritium watch

Didn’t have watch even submerged in water and there’s water and moisture in it. Description is incorrect in saying it’s waterproof. Also tried contacting seller and no response! Poor customer service!

I bought it as a work watch, instead I wear it all the time.

I can review this Brand of watch, As I have one already, which I bought in Australia. It glows at Night ,and have never seen a watch like it. Now comes the bad picture. The watch I bought at Amazon ,was the same I bought in Australia .How-ever quality Control was not good. I will explain, The watch on arriving at my Home address looked OK ,and it was working, Until I took a close look at the Watch, I saw that minute hand had lost it's part which glow at night. This little green bit was floating at the bottom of the watch,and at first I did not realise what it was?.Then I saw the green bit was missing from the second hand. I have posted the watch back to the seller, and want a new watch that works the way it is supposed to work. The watch is great if it works ,How-ever for the Price I believe quality Control is letting this Good looking watch down badly. This would not happen to Seiko or Citizen or Freestyle. By the way, I have not heard from the seller since I sent it back. I am still waiting for a new watch . What makes this watch expensive, is the fact that I had to Pay an extra $17.00 AU which they will not refund ,as I had to outlay to get the watch I want. Instead of the $76.00 Price I paid for this watch to come to Australia ,it now is costing $93.00. Not a good Buy I believe . Perhaps Amazon should have a talk with the seller, as the seller is using the good name of Amazon's good name to sell goods. This is my story of the UZI watch Rick.
