Gigandet watch opinion

StereoSound

Are they ok for the price? Some great looking models for in around €100.
I'm looking at these three in particular. They have miyota movements, what are they like? Are they Jap movements?

Yes, Miyota is Japanese. A workhorse movement from Citizen. Very reliable.
The rest of the watch is Chinese, and they can be hit and miss. Don't expect fantastic build quality.

Would you buy one for those prices?

Very tempted myself...as a nice looking beater.

No I wouldn't. For that price or a little more I'd buy something like a Seiko 5. Better quality and customer service.

I think they're probably worth a punt at 80 - 90 quid, but don't be fooled by the prices that they have been "reduced" from! The last one is pretty cool, if you like that retro look.

Have a look at amazon.de should be cheaper.
