For hundreds of years, the Swiss have been among the most active and athletic people in Europe. Since watchmaking is Switzerland’s national industry, the country has a long tradition of sporting timepieces that have been designed for an active lifestyle. Created by founder Samuel Friedmann, Calibre timepieces were established in 1992 to bring the Swiss enthusiasm for sports and the outdoors to a world where watches were increasingly becoming an integral part of an active, casual lifestyle.Nineteen-ninety-two was a banner year for Swiss athletes. Marc Rosset won a gold medal in Men’s Singles Tennis at the Barcelona Summer Olympics, while Gustav Weder and Donat Acklin won gold for Switzerland at the 1992 Winter Olympics in Albertville in the two-man bobsled competition. This was the same year that another high-caliber Swiss performance began to take shape: Calibre Collection timepieces. The Calibre Collection takes the Swiss sporting tradition, exemplified by Switzerland’s 1992 Olympic champions, and updates it for the 21st Century. Calibre timepieces are powered by precision Swiss-made movements and are the definition of a great sports watch.The Calibre vision was inspired by two Swiss traditions: watchmaking excellence and a love of athletic activity. These versatile timepieces are setting new standards for creativity, craftsmanship, and casual style. Simple, practical and sophisticated, this Calibre Trooper men's watch is a casual timepiece, great for everyday wear. Encased in gun ion plated coated stainless steel, its grey dial is protected by a mineral crystal window and contains many practical features. It has luminous hands, and a date window. Interchangeable black and grey canvas straps comfortably close with a buckle clasp for safe and secure all day wear. Powered by reliable Swiss Quartz movement and water resistant to 50 meters, it is a great addition to any timepiece collection.

Good, not great
Watch face just doesn't have a high quality "look" to it. It's a good watch. But for the price, you can have better.

not good
the watch has a 'winder stem problem'. The stem easily catches onto a magnetic bracelet i wear for arthrites relief. The stem will pop out and the watch stops running. So i do not wear this watch.

Watch seems to work great but the band
Watch seems to work great but the band, because of the material, stinks (literally). If u take a shower with it or ever sweat it will begin to smell awful and it holds the smell no matter how u wash it.

Great looking watch and strap runs under the watch bezel ...
2 straps, 2 year warranty, water resistant for swimming and showering so i never have to take it off. Strap was slightly frayed by buckle holes. Great looking watch and strap runs under the watch bezel so it doesn't sweat against your arm.

Great watch
Very high quality watch, standard size is a bit small (I'm on the 4th hole in) both bands look great on the watch, and the packaging was sufficient.
