Stuhrling Original Men's 165B.335569 Lifestyles Winchester Grand Automatic Skeleton Watch

Product Description

A great feat of engineering and craftsmanship is required to create a skeleton watch, timepieces with part of the dial removed to reveal the movement underneath. It takes even greater skill to remove the dial completely, and that’s what Stuhrling Original did with the Winchester Grand. This magnificent watch has been in a staple in our collection, and our fans will all tell you the same thing: they love it. The Winchester Grand is a second take at the original Winchester Skeleton. Rather than keeping the 40mm case of its predecessor, the Grand has been upgraded to an impressive 44mm case design. As mentioned earlier, we’ve eschewed the dial completely and included a stainless steel faceplate instead. It consists of a ring that suspends the 12, 3, 6, and 9 Arabic numerals while the bridges that function as the hour markers are attached to the case. The result: the movement, decorated by intricate hand-engraved scrollwork and colored to match the execution, appears to be floating. Blued hands were also included for easy at-a-glance reading. The Winchester Grand is protected by a domed Krysterna crystal at the face and a flat crystal on the exhibition case back. It comes mounted in a genuine French leather strap with crocodile embossing for a combination of comfort and style.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Nice Watch ... But Not a $500 Watch, August 19, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Stuhrling Original Men's 165B.335569 Lifestyles Winchester Grand Automatic Skeleton Watch (Watch)
I bought this watch on impulse while using the Amazon App on my Ipad. It was advertised as a "Lightning Deal" with a timer counting down to the expiration of the deal in minutes. The advert depicted a $495 price with a line through it, and a $89.99 price. At the time I am thinking that this is a fantastically awesome deal! I was not familiar with Sturhling and the time factor made it difficult to do research, so I just went for it. Overall, I am happy, but I cannot help feeling like the deal was misrepresented. It's a beautiful watch and so far, it is running fine.

But it is clearly not a $500 instrument. It's more like a $150 watch. And in fact, after the Lightning Deal was over, the price went to -- not $500, but to $180. Still a decent deal overall. Okay -- would I buy another one? At the $90 price, I certainly would. The casework is beautiful and styling unique.

Since making the order, I have had time to do some research. Interestingly, the company's... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Watch for a Great Price, September 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Stuhrling Original Men's 165B.335569 Lifestyles Winchester Grand Automatic Skeleton Watch (Watch)
Ignore the superficial and inane negative reviews about this watch; this is a truly nice, quality timepiece at a great price-point. First, the watch does not have "cheap look" and in fact, is comparable in quality and styling to the many other watches I have purchased over the years. The "skeleton" style is eye-catching and caught the attention of my wife when I first displayed it on my wrist. Furthermore, why anyone spending $99 for a watch would expect a Patek-like product is beyond comprehension. In the future, review the watch, not your misguided expectations of same. In a nutshell, this is a quality automatic watch with a stylish leather band and a unique look.

2.0 out of 5 stars Awesome design, but feels cheap., August 30, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Stuhrling Original Men's 165B.335569 Lifestyles Winchester Grand Automatic Skeleton Watch (Watch)
I love the design with the skeleton face and clear back, but the case and band both feel really cheap. It's a shame cause it could have been a really awesome watch.
