Momentum by St. Moritz Reviews
I bought this watch (special edition with orange handles) less than a year ago (August 2011) and had been very pleased with my purchase up until last week, when the thinnest (second-showing) hand got detached from the dial and started dangling inside of it. As long as I keep my Atlas watch on a flat surface, the orange hand works as expected, but as soon as I tilt the watch in any direction, the hand moves in the direction of the tilt as though it is not affixed to the dial. I certainly expected a watch at this price to last longer than a year, but now I have to go through all the logistics associated with sending a watch for repair. I've owned a fair number of watches by various brands (including less expensive ones) in the last decade or so, but this was the first time I experienced a mechanical problem.
It's been a long journey to get to this, my beloved watch. Bling or no bling? Leather or no leather? Pop of color or neutral? Black or white? Gold or silver? Safe or wacky? So many options. But the third watch is the charm. (Yes, I did buy two other very different watches and returned them both after scrutinizing each of them for a couple of days. I made the mistake of not buying those through Zappos, so the returns were painful. Don't do it.) This watch has a nice weight to it. It's sturdy and doesn't feel cheap or insubstantial like some of the aluminum or acrylic watches out there. The face size fits my petite wrist: not too big (like anything 38mm or larger) or too small and childish (like the one I borrowed from my American Doll, Tabitha Marie. I kid, I kid! Tabitha Marie transcends atomic time). At approximately 30mm, this watch is a good size for your average lady. The band was long for me, as is usually the case with link watches, so I quickly and easily shortened it myself using a handy little kit (purchased separately). It now fits snugly. This watch is easy to read at a glance and perfect for everyday wear. You don't have to worry about getting it wet when you wash your hands or your dog. You don't have to take it off before hitting the gym, the shower, or the pool. I love the aqua color of the face, the little pop of orange on the second hand, and the steel's matte finish. Great combo. It goes with just about everything, and I can pretty much picture it working with any outfit...except maybe a wedding gown. Although it is blue, so... Whatever, I'm married. Stop hitting on me, George Clooney! I love this watch.
I wear my pedometer every day. I'm pretty satisfied with the accuracy even though I know it isn't perfect. It stays on the waist of my jeans without sticking out too far or getting in my way. For the price, it was a good purchase and I would likely replace it with the same model. I have already recommended this item to several friends and family members.
I have been looking for 2 years for a watch like this. The band is very comfortable and fits my small wrist without looking too big. The band material is soft yet seems strong, I imagine it will last a long time.
I love this watch! The looks are visually striking with a locking directional bezel as well as its black leather band. The watch is not too heavy and looks nice with a suit or a pair of jeans. It has several great functions: timer, multi-alarm, world time, digital date and time and night-light. It works as advertised and is very easy to use...buy it!
Very nice watch for the price. This is my 2nd Momentum watch. Durable and takes a lot of punishment from my job. Delivery was very fast.
Great for scuba diving! Also can see time really well at night. Only negative is that it is a heavier watch but this is offset by being quite stylish and functional. Good quality value buy.
Great quality and color! Was initially disappointed on delivery that the band was huge, but a trip to my local jeweler (and a bit more money later - unfortunately), it is custom fit to my wrist and I'm very happy with it!
Awesome watch. I love it, and myself I have no trouble reading it. Especially love that it shows the time in military time as well. Super cool and cute too!
Very pretty! Comfortable band. Instructions are easy to read and detailed, including recommendation to send watch back to manufacturer every two years for battery replacement and mechanical tune-up.
It's a nice looking watch, the face is not big, but it does sit up high, and its a bit heavy. It wasn't very easy to read, so I return it for one that is.
Very cute little watch with an easy-to-read dial. Bought it for my wife to wear to her new job. The only negative is the date window---it's too small to be easily read.
I purchased this with the black leather touch band about a year ago and gave it away as a gift. I decided to buy another one with the brown calf leather and love how it sits on your wrist with easy to ready classical face design. Owning a prior Moritz Titanium pathfinder, I like this watch company for building classical good pieces at a good prices.
I ordered two pairs of these sandals--white and black. They are wonderful! My husband says that I have shoes to rival Imelda Marcos but I have very few that are actually comfortable--these are. They will be among my favorites. True to size and width, I can stand and walk in them for hours. I am ordering two more pairs and will get rid of many of the uncomfortable shoes that I have.
A very handsome watch, lightweight yet solid withal. The impression this conveys is traditional yet very high tech: it does not have a dozen dials and enough buttons to land the space shuttle. It looks simple, timeless yet classic.
I got this watch for my husband's birthday. He has a good watch and a running watch and this is something in between. It's very practical. The orange face adds interest to it. I love that it's a Canadian company. He really likes it and has been wearing it a lot. Check out their other watches, too. Very cool.

Love the watch: perfect time, great style even for active folks, light weight, easy to adjust alarm. The only slight hitch is that it is a bit hard to read the dial at night. However, the more often I am outside in the sun during the day, the easier it is to read the dial in the dark.

I have had my new watch for almost a month, and I love it. It is very distinctive looking with its red face. Setting it is a little strange, but no big deal if you follow the directions. I have had problems in the past with getting water in my watches, but this one has had none of that. I am very pleased.
