Briel Men's Chronagraph, 26 Aug 2011
This review is from: Breil TW0659 Mens Chronograph Watch with Rubber Strap (Watch)
My Briel chronagraph watch gets good comments & reactions where ever I go. It looks like a more expensive model.
It has been used as an every day watch, it has sturdy features and looks well on those special occasions!
Clean lines, very easy to read at a quick glance, the rubber strap is so comfortable to wear I sometimes don't even realise it's on!

Good looks and a quality feel make this watch special!!, 13 Dec 2011
This review is from: Breil TW0659 Mens Chronograph Watch with Rubber Strap (Watch)
This watch is a class timepiece. The face is easy to read, the rubber strap makes it very comfortable to wear and as another reviewer suggested " the buttons were hard to depress" then this certainly hasn't been my experience. The watch face is not too big but is still quite easy to read as I mentioned earlier- even for a spectacle wearer such as me. The watch is equally suitable for wearing with a suit or with jeans and shirt-it's that versatile. I've seen the watch priced at £173 on another site so at the Amazon price it's a bargain. You won't be disappointed with it.

Breil TWO659., 25 Nov 2011
This review is from: Breil TW0659 Mens Chronograph Watch with Rubber Strap (Watch)
I am really glad I got this watch, I have not worn one for a very long time because I started using my mobile, instead of a watch for the time!....
My first Impressions were that the watch looks a lot different compared to my old one's and better!.
Firstly the whole face of the watch looks really smart,(It's a black/grey colour), it goes well with the brushed finish of the frame(if that's watch its called?) The black screws really set it off, along with with black strap.
Having the rubber strap feels much more comfortable compared to the stainless ones and saves a lot of weight, which is a plus because one of the reasons I stopped wearing one was because it was quite heavy and I always knew it was on my wrist, slowing me down at work!!! But with this watch I can forget I'm wearing it because of it's lightness.(It still has that quality feel to it, and doesn't look or feel cheap at all)...
The buttons and the crown all work fine and are easy to use/set up once you have read the instruction booklet.
Also the buttons are no harder to press than any other watch, it will "click" once,,then you press the other button and when that "clicks" it resets the button you first pressed.(I don't think someone had a faulty one, but its possible, anything is).
Also....I don't think the glass is more reflective than any other watch glass,,it has a slight convex, which will make it seem more reflective.
I bought this for my dad but liked it so much I kept it..(sorry pa! I'll get you something else)!!!
