Amazing timepiece
Really happy with my purchase.- I got the "volcanic gray" style. The pictures do NOT do the watch justice, they must be over saturated or something. The face has much deeper color in person and it looks great.- So far it seems very accurate, I haven't actually noticed any discrepancy to the minute over the past week or so.- Power reserve is great. I manually wind it daily because it's fun, but I definitely don't need to (at least as much as I do). If you quickly lift the watch up to your ear you can hear a satisfying gear turn from the rotor self winding.- It seems like everything here is titanium - the case, band, and even clasps on the sports band. Feels and looks very high quality.- The day/date function works well. If you're watching it turn at night, heads up the day will flip to the Chinese symbol momentarily but by morning it will be on the correct English version of the day.Only issue I've run into is with the metal band sizing, but that's my wrists being an oddball diameter. I'll have to see if there's any half-sized sections I can snap in, but otherwise resizing it with a standard link removal tool was a breeze.

Excellent value automatic watch with Seiko HN35 movement
I actually have two of these, one with the older Miyota movement and this one with the newer Seiko movement. The titanium case and sapphire glass crystal make both of these watches a great value. The change to the Seiko movement has addressed the older movement's back-hacking and second hand skipping issues. Very satisfied with the upgrades to a very nice watch. If you want a really tough and high-value automatic watch, you could do a whole lot worse.To those folks complaining about accuracy, this is an old-style automatic watch. It can be very accurate, but it does take proper setup and maintenance to maintain accuracy. If you are unhappy with the watch's accuracy, take it to a watch shop and have them adjust it. It's not super expensive and it will make you enjoy the watch more.

Surprised
This is a Chinese-made, all titanium watch using a Japanese Seiko NH35 automatic movement.I'm a big fan of titanium watches, especially with automatic movement, and as you may know, they are expensive. Typically, titanium automatic watches start around the $500 price point and up.I figured that for $135 I couldn't go wrong buying this Boderry watch... even if it was a dud.Well, I must say that I am impressed and pleasantly surprised.The quality of this watch is very high, even with the sandblast finish, the case and titanium bracelet both have a finished feeling without sharp edges.The dial is well made and the screw down crown threads nicely.I put the watch on a "Timegrapher " and it appears that the movement has already been regulated. Running at+5 sec/day and a beat error of 0.1 ms.( these stats rival big brands )Clearly, the people of Boderry have great quality control and are sending out products with intention for excellence.With a sapphire crystal, and 100 meters of water resistant this watch can go almost anywhere, be used for work and play.... At this price we can beat the hell out of it and not care.

A great, light, automatic watch
This was a gift. My buddy’s wish list:- 4 o’clock crown (watch worn on inside of wrist)- Date complication- Classic field watch dial with railroad track perimeter- Ti, if possibleThe Boderry field watch is his complete package; I know he loves it because it’s now in his regular watch rotation.And for those wary of Chinese products, the Seiko movement solves the quality movement concern and the case is very well machined. The other watches in my buddy’s rotation are Boldrs and similar, so this watch making the regular means it’s punching way above its price!I only give five stars to life changing products; this watch does not rise to my extraordinary standard, and I highly recommend this watch!

Best Sub $200 Automatic Field Watch
Ordered this as a foray back into the wristwatch world after seeing it featured in a Youtube video. HOLY COW! This thing has to be the best kept secret in economical automatic watches. First impressions are very positive: the titanium bracelet looks to be of fair quality and the single-pass Zulu strap is robust. I have the watch on a single pass silicone rubber strap and I can barely tell it's on. Oh, excellent lume - really better than it deserves to be at this price point.

Nice watch
The watch is as described and reviewed on Youtube.Lume: Does not last. The lume that is described to be applied on here does not seem to be the actual lume. That’s one thing majority of the youtubers failed to be honest about.Material: there is not scratch resistant coating on the titanium case and bracelet. It will scratch very easily. I consider it patina. You may consider it whatever you choose.Bracelet: not the most comfortable. Not sharp, but feels a bit sharp. If you can find another titanium strap to go with this or have one, then use that. I couldn’t justify spending the extra money on a legit titanium bracelet for this, so got the stock bracelet.Strap: too thick. I lost patience trying to break in the strap. But plenty of strap options available on a budget.Movement: as described. Fairly reliable and no issues. Keeps the time pretty well.Overall a good timepiece if you want to get into auto TI watches. If you have the extra spending power, skip this watch. Not a necessity to the collection. If you have a tight budget and are adamant you want an Auto TI watch, go for it.

Loses nearly 5 min in 2 weeks
The design and comfort of wear is 5 star, per my son, but the time keeping function, the primary function, is so bad that my son, who I bought the watch for as a gift, doesn't wear it anymore. He said the reason he doesn't wear it is that it loses nearly 5 min every two weeks and is tired of resetting it.
