Advantages
Stylish
If you are the kind of person who likes big, retro-inspired watches and does not mind having one around your wrist, then this one is right for you. Hugeness aside, this watch is dressed with excellence. The gunmetal case and band look fantastic especially when viewed along with the stunning dial. The dial is made even more special with the unique and sophisticated pattern. The thick, white hands and Arabic numeral hour markers perfectly contrast with the dial. This is similar to what happened on the black-tone bezel, which is accented with white markers. The raised crystal seated on the bezel gives the face of this watch a 3D look. This watch will definitely bring you back to the old good days with its vintage-inspired three-link bracelet.
Solid
The Vestal Men’s ZR3017 ZR-3 Brushed Gunmetal Chronograph Watch is basically designed with stainless steel case. Because of this, you are assured that you’ve got a durable watch. The solid construction of this watch is also improved with its hardened mineral crystal that protects the gorgeous face of this watch from any damage. This will definitely be a great choice for those who are looking for something special to give to their loved ones, because this will surely last and therefore, worth the price.
Functional
But the more important feature is its functionality. This watch has something more than what you expect. The Vestal Men’s ZR3017 ZR-3 Brushed Gunmetal Chronograph Watch comes with three subdials: 24-hour display at the 3 o’clock position, 60-second function at the 6 o’clock position, and 60-minute function at the 9 o’clock position. Between the 24-hour and 60-second display is the date window. Moreover, the bezel sports a tachymeter function, which can be used to measure speed from measured distance and time traveled. Moreover, with its water resistance of up to 100 meters or 330 feet, you can use this watch when swimming, snorkeling, or surfing.
Disadvantages
The Vestal Men’s ZR3017 ZR-3 Brushed Gunmetal Chronograph Watch, however, has a disadvantage. This watch measures 52mm in diameter, and “large” would be an understatement to describe this watch. While this watch is a good ensemble for bigger men with bigger wrist, this watch will ultimately look odd or awkward when used by men with smaller wrist. And while this watch is yet very stylish, it is also a heavy watch.
If big watches are your style, then you are on the right page. The 52mm in diameter Vestal Men's ZR3017 ZR-3 Brushed Gunmetal Chronograph Watch is a huge watch, but it is definitely more than that. With its stunning design, solid construction and unparalleled functionality, no wonder why this watch is literally a “big” hit.
