I love the simplicity of an Army field watch. The only things that I’d do differently is get an automatic model and a leather band.

Great experience. Nice watch. The bands are too stiff but pretty and good quality

The ordering experience was easy, my watch delivered faster than expected, and the watch itself is great! The only negative I can report is the leather band is a little underwhelming. The one I received looks cheap and doesn’t resemble the rugged/nice ones pictured on the website. Other than that, great watch!

I purchased an A-11 Origin watch, really cool homage to the WW2 issued watches. Love the fact that it is assembled in the US. Keeps excellent time, as expected from a quartz movement, and at the price point you can't beat it. Only negative is the strap. I got the OD canvas strap, and it is too large, and I don't have super small wrists (approx. 7-5/8"). If your wrists are any smaller than this strap will be likely unwearable. Should have been paired with a one-piece canvas strap.

Watch arrived very quickly. Great quality and that domed sapphire is stunning! Unfortunately I ordered the canvas strap version and received the leather strap version instead. The company offered to send the correct strap right over and make things right immediately.

I'm a collector of WWll U.S. memorabilia. I own a number of original A-11 watches. This is one of the best attempts at reproducing the A-11 but is not perfect. I would pay more $100.00 or so more for a manual wind A-11. It is close and I'm keeping it as my daily watch. Thank you for taking the time to reproduce one that is close and at a glance looks like the real deal.

It's a great watch, but I would have preferred a bit more technical documentation - Movement details (number of jewels for example, water resistance, etc.). Granted, I'm a watch geek, but still... But, all in all, a nice piece!

Nice watch, wrong band. Ordered a nylon band but came with leather
