Great quality, rugged design
The media could not be loaded. I am a watch fanatic. I own several Rolex, a few Panerai, and one Blancpain. I bought this watch to add to my collection, but wasn’t sure I was going to be impressed by the quality. WOW! This is a legit amazing and beautiful watch. Has a very nice movement and just feels rugged and amazing on my wrist. I removed three links. I had to be a little patient with that process, but it turned out to be a great fit. Thank you Pantor. GREAT WATCH!!!

Beautiful watch. Honestly
When I first saw this watch while shopping for divers, I thought it would be ridiculous to buy this. Weeks passed...now I own it. I have just under a 7" wrist. Tiny wrist, huge watch. Heavy watch. Beautiful watch. Honestly, everyone says "Oh you're getting so much watch for the price" on watches with their same movement, same water resistance (Seiko cough cough) same size, possible different looks that vary ~$200. With this though, you REALLY ARE getting so much for what you pay. Beautiful Lume, respectable Japanese movement (see product description, Miyota something something) saphire glass so it'll be harder to scratch, and most notably, 1000m depth resistance. Many will say "you'll never go that deep though, that's pointless, 200m is plenty." Ah and right you may be, but, I could. I probably never will *but I could*. Honestly for most this is more cool factor than anything else, and everyone knows, the most important thing is to look cool. Speaking of looking cool, the blue bezel has an iridescent finish on it, and just screams "ocean". In one light it's a very royal blue, and in another it's very sea green. The bracelet has to be one of my favorite ones that can come with a watch, it doesn't grab arm hair despite it looking like a hair magnet, and very sharp appearance. I typically don't like replacing bands on my watches, and putting a NATO or Zulu band on this deserves a burn at the stake. One might ask "Hey, don't all those links make it really hard to resize?" Nope. Line them up, place your pin, and shimmy. A monkey could do it. Clasp is quite large, kind of a shame they took away space from their beautiful bracelet and putting in the honkin clasp. But! This is for a reason, the lower buttons are for a divers extension, and that is going to be pretty nifty when I go back to east coast, where it is currently snowing. A lot of wariness about the weight, the size, and honestly, this is probably the biggest watch I own, and I'm not feeling weird with it on. It's going to be a bigger watch for that 1000m resistance, and if you're a little too worried about it, the Sealion is an excellent choice. 5 stars, no regrets, shipping was BEYOND excellent (watchmall I think?) I mean I ordered it on a Friday night and it showed up on Monday, which gave me less time to get cold feet about a watch that costs as much as the new gun you've been eyeing. All jokes aside, if you're seriously considering buying this watch, go for it. Sure, it's micro brand, sure it's "Chinese". You're getting the capability and ***QUALITY*** $1000+ watch. Enjoy.

NOT WATER RESISTANT - beware. Watch will break.
Bought for my son's 18th. 3 weeks later he went swimming in a hotel pool - not quite 1000 metres, more like 4 feet. Watch lasted 30 minutes before condensation formed inside the watch face, and the mechanism stopped 5 minutes after that. Broken. TOTAL DISGRACE.Not even worth one star - but I have to award it just to post the review.UPDATEI returned the original watch and bought a replacement. This too fogged after a 30 minute, sub 1 atmosphere swim, so I'll be returning this also. Aside from obvious QA problems, this presents a safety hazard to professional divers (air, full sat, or otherwise) and is clearly false advertising.This is sold as a pro diver watch rated to 1000M, and TWO watches have now failed a basic surface swim. DO NOT BUY THIS WATCH EXCEPT AS A FASHION ACCESSORY - IT IS NOT WATERPROOF.UPDATE 22nd replacement worked well - so that's 1 in 3 that worked as advertised. The customer care and replacement procedure was good and hassle free. The vendor contacted me several times to discuss the problems. Unfortunately they repeatedly accused me and my son of not ensuring the crown was screwed tight and therefore holding us responsible for the failures. I found this a very condescending way to treat a customer; we had always ensured the crown was sealed.Changing my rating to 3 stars because the watch is a beast and clearly the vendor cares about the quality of their product, however accusations of failing to secure the crown were condescending.

100% happy with this Pantor diver... here’s why,
I’ve combed over reviews and have watched Utube vids but none so far do this watch justice. I purchased the one with a plain steel bezel to be able to polish out scratches later. The watch is in a word magnificent. I nearly opted for the less costly seiko SKX 007J but am so glad I went with this Horse! My friends at work have gawked and sqwaked about this beaut. High points in order of presidence; Mat black face offers a clear shot at the time. The movement is spot on and I cant believe how accurate it is so far...not losing time at all with it now 2 days on the wrist. Bracelet is a rugged mesh and in the heat of the day allows sweat or moisture to escape your arm unlike other bracelets. Bracelet is easy to size - purchased a small standard driver set from Ace Hardware. The bracelet extender is a nice option if your swelled up from salty frys. It’s a heavy tall watch on the wrist but bulletproof. All came with the watch as expected. The watch case arrived and smelled like leather. The watch, yea I sniffed it too, smelled like machine tool oil. Love it!

DO NOT BUY THIS WATCH!!!!!!
DO NOT BUY!!!!!!! POOR QUALITY!!!!!!!!NOT WORTH THE MONEY. I purchased the watch for diving and outdoor activities. I wore the watch semi daily to work before I had a chance to use it for its intended purpose. The bezel color broke down almost instantly and with regular wear not hard use that I thought the watch was designed for, the sapphire crystal scratched. For $500.00 I accepted better quality. I contacted the company that makes the watch and after weeks of back and forth email they did nothing but give me a run around. SAVE YOUR MONEY. BUY SOMETHING ELSE.
