Thin is in with this stainless steel men’s watch from Invicta’s Slim Collection, which is a great choice for everyday casual wear. But with its amazingly svelte 5.5mm (0.22 inches) profile, it can also be perfectly tucked under the cuff when dress or business wear is called for. Offering Invicta’s refined, modern styling, this watch is powered by a precisely timed Swiss-manufactured quartz movement. And while it might be stereotypical, the truth is many of the world’s finest and most accurate timing movements are created in Switzerland. This is due to the wealth of knowledge and infrastructure that’s been built up in the Swiss watch industry over the centuries, and with many of the Swiss practitioners having the trade and watchmaking traditions passed down over the generations. Matched with a supple black leather strap, this watch has a square, silver stainless steel watch case that measures 39mm wide (1.54 inches). Its silvery white dial face features a two-handed movement placed in a slightly recessed center, which is surrounded by a silver tone markers and Arabic numerals. It’s water resistant to 30 meters (99 feet), also known as 3 ATM. This means that it can withstand rain and splashes of water–such as car washing and showering–but it shouldn’t be worn swimming. Other features include a scratch-resistant mineral crystal, stainless steel buckle, and Tritnite luminous hands. Tritnite is a luminous material with an extended glow exclusively developed by Invicta in Switzerland and added to their timepiece hands and markers. When exposed to regular daylight, it will hold its glow for about 20 hours. Quartz Movement The “movement” of a watch refers to the mechanics that power the ticking of the timepiece, and this watch is powered by a Swiss-made quartz movement. It utilizes the vibrations of a tiny quartz crystal to maintain timing, which provides a fast, steady oscillation (at more than 30,000 times per second) to provide excellent accuracy.

The Tommy Hilfiger BrandThe History of Tommy Hilfiger In 1969, Tommy Hilfiger began his retail career while still in high school with $125 and 20 pairs of bell-bottom jeans. This entrepreneurial spirit mixed with raw talent led him to establish a small chain of retail stores, where he designed the clothes people wanted but could never find. In 1985, Hilfiger introduced his signature collection of menswear. Since its inception, the Tommy Hilfiger brand has been built on a powerful design philosophy: Adding fresh, new perspective to traditional, all-American stylings. This approach proved so compelling, that in less than two decades, the Company grew from a single line into a global business encompassing a wide range of products. From menswear and womenswear to licensing agreements in accessories, footwear, fragrance and more, Tommy Hilfiger has become a fashion icon.Tommy Hilfiger Watches Classic, American, Cool It was only a matter of time before Tommy Hilfiger took on the world of watches. Inspired by his father who worked 42 years as a watchmaker in the jewelry business, Tommy Hilfiger was driven to design his own watch collection. Putting his extraordinary talents and infallible fashion instincts to the test, Tommy Hilfiger stepped into the role of watch designer. His goal was to offer the precise, reliable performance of a quality timepiece as well as the classic American style for which his sportswear was so well known. Hilfiger set out to create fashion watches of unmistakable style and exceptional value, and thats exactly what he did. In 1999, Tommy Hilfiger entered into an exclusive, ongoing licensing agreement with Movado Group, Inc. for the well known watch company to design, manufacture and distribute Tommy Hilfiger Watches worldwide. Meticulously designed to complement the Tommy Hilfiger lifestyle and brand aesthetic, the launch collection combined a cool, classic sophistication with quality craftsmanship. Today’s Tommy Hilfiger watches remain true to the brand’s original design concept. Sporting a traditional American style with a modern twist, the latest Tommy Hilfiger watch collection ranges from stainless steel chronographs and multi-eye models, to chic designs with genuine diamonds, reversible bands, iconic Tommy Hilfiger detailing like plaid etching, and signature Tommy Hilfiger fabrics and colors.General Information and Care Tommy Hilfiger watches have been developed with meticulous attention to quality, function and detail.Battery Information A Tommy Hilfiger quartz analog watch has a 1.55-Volt silver-oxide battery. It is specially designed for watches and will last approximately 18-36 months under normal use. NOTE: Frequent use of special functions, like the stopwatch timer on chronograph models, may shorten battery life.Water Resistance All Tommy Hilfiger watches meet international standards for water resistance to 3 ATM, so faucet spray or rain wont damage them as long as the case, crown and crystal remain intact. DO NOT press the push-buttons on a chronograph model when the watch is under water, or it will not remain water resistant. NOTE: We recommend that you do not get your leather strap wet. Exposing leather to water can cause premature wear and deterioration.Tommy Hilfiger Watches Limited Warranty Tommy Hilfiger Watches (THW) warrants to the original consumer that his/her watch will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use for a period of ten (10) years in the US and Canada, or two (2) years in Europe, Asia and Latin America, from date of purchase.

Get ready to take on the wildest waves with the Freestyle Hammerhead stainless steel men’s watch (model 75401), which is water resistant to 200 meters (660 feet)–suitable for recreational scuba diving in addition to water sports like surfing. This large, powerfully styled timepiece is topped by a raised, rounded bezel with machine cut accents and a black plated inner dial with Arabic numeral markers and small minute indexes. It frames a black dial with large luminous dotted markers and oversized arrow hands (with red seconds hand), and silver Arabic numerals at the quarter hours. It’s completed by a black polyurethane strap. Other features include a date window at 4 o’clock and scratch-resistant hardened mineral crystal. About FreeStyle With the extremist in mind, FreeStyle has created an extensive collection of innovative performance watches that will go with you to the edge and back–whether you’re surfing, skiing, biking, or hiking. Established in 1981, Freestyle Watches was the brainchild of a couple of Surfers whose mission was to create a watch line that could withstand the abusive conditions of their beach lifestyle. Their experience told them very few watches on the market could stand up to the daily abuse of salt water and sand. The result was The Shark Freestyle watch, a lightweight, low profile, and extremely durable timepiece that was immediately demanded by athletes all over the world.
Freestyle U.S.A. warrants, to the original purchaser, a limited lifetime warranty that its watches are free from defects in materials and workmanship. The following are not covered under warranty: battery, strap/bracelet/band and crystal. Freestyle U.S.A. will not repair defects relating to servicing not performed by Freestyle U.S.A.

Whether navigating a business deal or the rough ocean waves in your kayak, make a bold statement with the Citizen Corso BM8120-56E titanium men’s watch. Titanium is nearly 50 percent lighter than steel, but 30 percent stronger. It’s also particularly resistant to salt water corrosion. This large, round watch measures 1.5 inches in diameter and sits prominantly on your wrist. It’s powered by Citizen’s unique Eco-Drive, which absorbs sunlight and any artifical light through the crystal and dial to recharge the watch continuously. With regular exposure to light, the Eco-Drive continuously recharges itself for a lifetime of use. It features a polished titanium bezel, textured black dial background, mix of silver dial markers and Roman numerals, luminous baton hands (with second hand), and day/date feature at 3 o’clock. The round case is fully integrated into the rounded, skeletal-like titanium bracelet, which is joined by a push-button, fold-over clasp. Other features include Japanese quartz movement, water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet), and Citizen’s 5-year warranty.
The Citizen Watch Brand The company was established in 1924. The founding fathers selected the name Citizen so it would be “Close to the Hearts of People Everywhere” and soon after adopted the company’s formal name, Citizen Watch Company. During the last seventy-five years Citizen has expanded its business throughout the world and has achieved recognition as the global brand. The past twenty-five year period has coincided with the company’s dramatic rise to its current position as the world’s largest watchmaker, a distinction Citizen has held every year since 1986. Beyond sheer size, Citizen is also recognized as a worldwide leader in advanced technology. From the world’s slimmest LCD watch to the first voice recognition watch and the world’s first professional dive watch with an electronic depth sensor, Citizen’s record of “world’s firsts” is unmatched. More recently, Citizen has staked out a new position as the leader in Ecologically Friendly timekeeping with its Eco-Drives watches that are light powered. With models ranging from dress models to sports models to professional dive watches, Citizen Eco-Drive runs continuously in any kind of natural or artificial light for a lifetime of use. Fueled by light, it never needs a battery.Eco-Drive Frequently Asked Questions (See the full Citizen Eco-Drive FAQ here)How can you tell if the Eco-Drive watch is getting enough light? In normal use, the watch displays the time and the sweep-second hand moves in one second intervals. A very important feature of Eco-Drive is the Low Charge Warning Mode which as a result of low battery voltage, causes the second hand to jump two seconds at a time (while still keeping correct time).How long will an Eco-Drive watch run after it is fully charged? If your watch is put away where no light is available to it while in a fully charged state, depending on the model, it will run for from 45 days to 5 years.How can the Eco-Drive watch be recharged? Besides sunlight, it can be safely charged by exposing it to a fluorescent desk lamp, with the dial (face) up and within about 8 inches or an incandescent lamp (regular light bulb) no closer than 20 inches. Never use a halogen lamp since the heat generated by it can cause damage to your watch. The most efficient and the quickest is in direct bright sunlight (not windowsill) and never on the dashboard of a car.
