DETOMASO AIRBREAKER Chronograph Black/Blue

I suppose now we all carry smartphones, a watch is as much a fashion item as a timepiece. Upsides are I like the way it looks, the value for money and that I actually use the chronograph, which I didn't expect to. Downsides are the calendar date needs adjusting at the start of the month as this is not a perpetual, it has no alarm, which I have on other watches and it's taken me a while to get used to the tiny second hand.. I probably should mention that it keeps good time, but that's expected of even the cheapest watch these days.Of all these things, the look is possibly the most important for why I bought it. Taste is individual. You either like it or you don't. It cost me less than £50 and now has more than doubled in price ahead of Christmas. There are a lot of watches out there, and I wouldn't have bought this one at the current price of £109. However, if the price drops back again next year, I might get another one of a different colour.*********************Edited to add: Jan 2018. After having worn the first one for over a year, I bought a second, slightly more expensive one with the white face with the brown strap. I thought it only fair to change the rating from four to five stars.

Bought the watch as I wanted something to wear when out socialising but which I could also use in meetings. Great look, well made and is a great size. The leather strap is very comfortable and the watch feels solid.I have a number of watches including Klaus Kobec, Citizen Promaster, G Shock, Shark and others and I have to admit that this one is a striking looking watch and well worth the money. I have only had it a few weeks but already I am absolutely happy with the purchase.Highly recommended.

10* !!Very comfortable and looks great.Arrow of seconds of chronograph is not fully covering with marks but it's not so visible and impotent.When you bay it and u start thinking black parts are made of plastic, ur wrong. It's just first view and is because of black paint with mat effect.Leather stripe is really thick and filling wrist is unbelievable comfortable! First watch which I'm sleeping with.Minimum reflections on glass.Fully recommended good-price-and-quality watch.

I have a large watch collection and this watch is right up there as one of my best ones. The watch arrived as stated. It was well packaged and has a fantastic metal case. The watch has a quality leather strap. The watch face looks fantastic and keeps excellent time. I would highly recommend this watch.

It's a very nice watch

Checked out previous reviews and on these recommendations decided to buy this watch I'm not disappointed good quality materials in the construction of the watch would recommend especially at the price I paid.

Watch was great well worth the money

A very nice watch from DeTomaso. Especially the leather band is great!
