georgegrasser Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 I bought two back in the 80's-90's and ended up throwing them away. The quality was that poor. I have no clue if they have improved since then. If you get it, make sure it's from somewhere with a return poilcy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfreeman420 Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Croton quality has been up and down over the years. I have seen several models on shopnbc that I have come close to buying. They have a very reasonably priced full ceramic watch that is quite nice looking. Their most recent models look pretty good. If it's around $100 bucks I say go for it. Over $200 leave it.

d.b Posted October 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 lol.. every one with it's own preferences, to me it is looking nice well, i have got it for $80 inc. world-wide shipping.. so it is ok.. not expensive.. i hope it will be durable, although anyway i dont plan on treating it rough.. only gentle use.. about the movement, some say its swiss, some other say japanese.. i hope swiss? it suppose to be one of the ISA mvmnts i believe.. with the date at 4 and chronograph features.. daytona il Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
