Henri diver automatic watch – very well-made, solid feel, accurate.
*Update: 3 week update. Unfortunately had to reduce this down to (3 ⭐️) due to the watch appears to be losing about 1 minute every 4-5 days, almost 2 min slow after one week. And this is making sure I was wearing it all the time so I know it’s charged.Also if I don’t wear it for 2 days, due to not moving it, it doesn’t keep its charge and it slows way down. It lost 6 hours in 2 days of not wearing it.So due to this major flaw of something that’s supposed to keep time it’s hard to recommend this particular watch. At least this is my experience with this one anyway. BUT still (3⭐️) because I like the look, style, and durability of this watch so much and since it’s only about 2 min slow a week, I’m willing to keep adjusting the time as I wear it.*Previous review: This Henri diver automatic watch looks and feels very well-made. It has a good weight to it, indicating a real solid build. it appears to be good quality stainless steel, I also left it in a glass of water overnight and no rust and no visible moisture inside the face.I have had watches all my life and I’m very particular on how it looks and feels on my wrist. And for my wrist this one has just the right size face, not too small and not too large. I also like the band on this one, it has just the right combination of shine and matte links to it.As with any watch, I had to adjust the band, on this one I had to remove two links, one from each side and adjust the incremental pin on the clasp, and it fit perfect. You’ll either need one of those pin removers for an easy link removal.I used one of the extra pins that came with the watch and pushed it through. There are directional arrows on the underside to indicate which way the pin should come out. It was definitely in there as I had to push with a lot of force. Which was good because I know these links are secure.Adjusting the time and date was simple, just unscrew the adjusting knob and pull once for the date and pull it even further out for the time. I suggest adjusting the time 1st and then the date 2nd. This way you know when the small hand reaches 12 o’clock that it’s either midnight or noon, because at midnight it will automatically change the date. And the date only scrolls one direction from low to high. So if you adjust the date 1st then adjust the time and roll over midnight the date will change, and you will have to change the date again.So far as I can tell it’s been keeping good time. The movement of the second hand are micro tics, which appear as a smooth motion from afar, just like Rolex watches. I also reluctantly tested the sapphire face attempting to scratch it with a screwdriver. First going slow and with soft pressure gradually increasing force. And thankfully it held up to the test and absolutely no scratches!The clasp on this band is extremely secure, almost to the point of overkill. It didn’t come with any paperwork or instructions so I had to figure it out, but I eventually did. You have to lift up on a folding piece and then press two thin buttons on the side and then pull. This band will never accidentally come off and no one will ever be able to steal it from your wrist without you knowing.It does come in a very nice box in case you want to give it as a gift. I do really like the automatic feature on this watch as it doesn’t need batteries or winding to keep it going. But the drawback is it needs movement for it to stay ticking.So you either need to wear it every day, not necessarily 24 hours, but probably can’t leave it sitting still for a week or it will probably stop and then you’ll have to wear it for a while for it to charge back up. Or you can get one of those electronic watch cases that constantly move the watch.The hours and hands also glow in the dark, which is feature I’ve always loved in analog watches. Overall, I am extremely impressed and happy with this watch. It has an elegant, but sporty as well as a classy look to it. And most importantly it looks and feels good on my wrist!
