Men's Mechanical Automatic Watch | Leather Strap | Gold Movement | 45mm Skeleton Dial | Water Resistant and Scratch Resistant Stylish Gift

I bought this BENYAR watch as a gift and it exceeded my expectations. The design is very elegant and eye-catching, especially the skeleton style that shows the inner mechanism, giving it a modern and sophisticated look. The leather strap feels comfortable and well made, and the watch has a nice weight that makes it feel solid. It works perfectly, keeps accurate time, and the overall finish is much better than expected for the price. It looks more expensive than it actually is and is suitable for both everyday wear and special occasions. Excellent value for money. I would definitely recommend it.

I purchased this watch as an experiment before buying a much more expensive "grail" watch that was the same shape and size. I wanted to make sure that I would like something this large before the purchase. After having this several months and wearing it when I am not comfortable with something more expensive for fear of damage... I have to say I am impressed for the money spent. The value is excellent. The strap is hard ugly plastic feeling but has held up very well. The watch itself is attractive and seems to be well made. By sight I thought the movement might be an NH35, but while it does hand wind, it does not hack. The main thing though... it is keeping very good time. I would call it a very good value for $50. A person could put a better strap on it and do a lot worse for a lot more money with some of the garbage I have seen available. If I run across someone at some point who really likes it I may give it away as I have done in the past. The difference this time is I will not feel like I gave away trash. I have purchased 2 Benyar watches since this one and I have had the same experience with those as well.

I'm about a week in with this watch and I have to say I love it. While the band does make noise against the lugs sometimes and is definitely of cheaper quality, I find it to be decently comfortable and well built. The dial is gorgeous, and you're not going to find many other skeletons at this price point. I'm excited to see how the movement performs after a while and how scratch / bump / life resistant the watch is, and I'll update this review if something changes. Until then, five stars. Update 4/14/26: The strap unfortunately broke at the buckle for this watch after some months of wear. As others are saying, it is recommended to get a band replacement with this watch. Down to 4 stars, but the watch itself still is scratchless and works great.

I have had this watch for at least 3 years. I don't use it every day, maybe 1 or 2 times a week but it has maintained its new appearance and still working good. For the price point it really looks more high end, the quality is noticeable and looks really good

I've had this watch a few days and it's really been a great watch. I only purchase automatic or solar watches. No batteries involved. This watch can go from dressed up to dressed down. Keeps time just fine. PAGANI DESIGN company is a professional manufacturer of watches in Guangdong China (PAGANI DESIGN Watches, BENYAR Watches, BERSIGAR Watches). We are mainly producing high-quality quartz & automatic watches with premium materials, all kinds of fashion watches. PAGANI DESIGN company was founded in 1984.

Honestly for an automatic watch at this price point, I didn't expect much. I expected it not to keep time accurately. I expected the quality to lack also. On the contrary, it keeps perfect time. It'll and it'll last roughly 48 hours from fully wound to run down and not running any longer. That's if you wind it up and just lay it down so the rotor doesn't wind the main spring automatically. The quality is fantastic. Thick leather band, no machining flaws on the internals. Little decorative details on the face design that add a nice subtle accent to an already attractive watch. Time will tell on its longevity. But as of right now in the month I've had it, it gets 5 stars easily.

I bought this because I wanted a mechanical skeleton watch to add to my collection. It was on sale for $32 and looked good, so I picked it up. It's become my workhorse watch in that time, and sees more use than my Citizens, Seikos, or Tags or Hublot. The crystal has a couple little dings at the top edge from when I was working under my car but is otherwise scratch-free. The black finish has worn down on the outer edge of the bezel and the edges of the case by the strap connector, which (imho) gives it a cool patina as it shows the copper underneath. Again, this became my workhorse and has been put through a lot more use than my dress watches have; if you use it as such, the finish will likely last many years longer. I do leathercrafting and had planned to make a custom strap right away, but the one that came with it seemed decent enough that I left it on. It's just about time to replace it. The leather is painted and highly treated which makes it durable, but it as the paint wears it looks more "worn out" than having a "patina." Pairing this with a custom strap, as other reviewers have, is a good move. I've gotten a lot of compliments for it in the last couple years, as people notice the mechanism moving inside. The color balance between gunmetal, chrome, and gold is great at this price point, and it manages to strike a perfect balance of subtle and flash. It's a watch that can look "tough" while still being sophisticated... Isn't that what we all want? If you're only going to have one or two watches that suit work, play, and formal events, this one is a great choice. I don't think you'll find much better for at least another two hundred bucks.

This was purchased awhile ago(like 9 months ago) as an anniversary gift for my husband. (I had meant to leave a review sooner but I forgot and Amazon just reminded me to do it..) He loved it so much and wore it everywhere... For about 2 weeks... And then, one day, he accidentally scraped against a wall (close quarters at work) and the watch got these deep gouges.. He decided he didn't want to damage it further because he loved it so much.. So he stopped wearing it and it is now a paperweight. To say I'm extremely disappointed in the quality of this is really an understatement just because of the sadness he had when he showed me the damage like it was his fault this was shoddy quality. I spent too much on this for the "glass" to be able to be gouged by an accidental wall scrape. I understand there are more expensive watches out there I could have purchased, as I was originally looking at a much more expensive brand, but I saw this one and knew he would love this as it's all around his style, but it's really ridiculous to me that the quality of this is just that low. I wouldn't buy this again. I don't recommend it to anyone and I'm just overall still mad about it even 9 months later.

This item is beautiful and amazing. Worked so well. It was a favorite Christmas gift for our teen, except suddenly the other day the pin completely fell out of the band and the watch fell right down to the ground and the glass and mechanisms broke. We want to buy another one for our teen’s birthday to replace it but would like a discount and a guarantee that the new one will not break the same way.

This watch has become my favorite.

Très propre et joli

Ciao Gente! Da quando mi hanno regalato un orologio automatico di marca cinese, ho iniziato ad interessarmi al mondo degli orologi automatici cinesi, scoprendo oggetti interessanti ed a buon mercato. By Benyar è, diciamo, la divisione economica di Pagani Design, marchio che già conosco e del quale posseggo un orologio automatico. Un automatico Pagani ha un costo che mediamente va dai 130 ai 180 euro e monta, normalmente, un movimento giapponese Seiko NH35, mentre i Benyar montano movimenti cinesi, meno affasciananti ma, per la mia esperienza fino ad ora, altrettanto efficaci (sebbene privi di datario). Entrambi i brand commercializzano orologi "homage", cioè delle copie, più o meno fedeli, di orologi famosi, o comunque, fortemente ispirati ad essi. Precisazione doverosa: leggo di "recensori" che acquistano un orologio meccanico automatico e poi mettono una stella perché tolgono l'orologio la sera e lo trovano fermo la mattina. Beh, sia chiaro che un movimento meccanico a carica "automatica" si carica da solo con i movimenti del braccio, ma quando lo si lascia fermo, esaurisce la carica nel giro di qualche ora, se non ha carica sufficiente. È come una batteria, se non viene caricata, si esaurisce. Questo è perfettamente normale. Se si ferma, basta caricarlo un po' manualmente, girando semplicemente la corona in senso orario, regolarlo, ed indossarlo, continuerà a caricarsi muovendo il braccio normalmente. Ma parliamo di questo modello nello specifico: By Benyar BY-5121, un orologio da circa 60 euro, con cassa in acciaio inox, per nulla scontato in questa fascia di prezzo, vetro Hardlex (un vetro minerale particolarmente duro) e bracciale in pelle. Si tratta, sostanzialmente di un "homage", in questo caso riprende le linee dei Paneari Radiomir, serie speciale "l'ingegnere", con quadrante scheletrato, pur non essendo una copia fedele, come invece capita spesso per altri modelli By Benyar. Non viene specificato, nemmeno sul sito Benyar, quale movimento sia montato in questo modello, ma è, visivamente, identico al G3265Z che è montato su un altro Benyar che posseggo. Un movimento 100% cinese, che gode di buona fama. Nel mio caso si sta rivelando preciso quanto basta, nel senso che non perde o guadagna in modo visibile. Di solito, questi movimenti vengono dati per uno scarto di -20/+40 secondi al giorno. Mi sembra proprio che il mio esemplare sia ben al di sotto di questi limiti. È il secondo orologio By Benyar che prendo, con questo movimento, e non ho avuto brutte sorprese. Lo stile dell'orologio è sobrio, per quanto riguarda la cassa, molto lineare e senza fronzoli, ma il pezzo che cattura l'attenzione è il quadrante "skeleton", con il movimento completamente a vista. Provate ad osservarlo per qualche decina di secondi e resterete ipnotizzati! Per me è fantastico, e non passa inosservato, pur senza cadere nel vistoso. Questo, almeno, per la colorazione che ho scelto io. La cassa è abbastanza grande. Sul mio polso, molto sottile, risalta in modo particolare, ma comunque non fa l'effetto di "sveglia della nonna messa al polso", non so se mi spiego. Il fondello è misto, acciaio/vetro, e lascia anch'esso il movimento a vista. Le sfere (lancette) sono luminescenti e quindi permettono anche la lettura notturna, se adeguatamente "caricate" di giorno. Comunque non durano molto e se vi svegliate nel cuore della notte, penso che le troverete buie. L'orologio è dichiarato water resistant 30m/3atm, quindi resistente agli schizzi ma non alle immersioni. Si può tenerlo per lavarsi le mani, ma non per la doccia. La parte che mi convince meno di questo prodotto è il bracciale. Molto robusto, in cuoio ultra spesso, anche troppo. È rigido e si fa fatica ad indossarlo, specie se si ha il polso sottile, come il mio. Con un po' d'uso resta sempre rigido ma prende un po' la forma. Anche il colore appare più chiaro che nelle foto della pagina Amazon. Ne ho ordinato uno più sottile e di colore più scuro, secondo me più adatto allo stile dell'orologio. Due parole sulla confezione: molto curata, un cofanetto in cartone rivestito in materiale tipo finta pelle, con logo Benyar ben in evidenza e chiusura magnetica. Interno imbottito, con libriccino di istruzioni e certificato di garanzia. Si fa una bella figura anche se lo si regala, anche se il marchio non è uno di quelli "wow". In conclusione, un orologio meccanico dallo stile, secondo me, molto accattivante, ben costruito, rispetto al prezzo, e preciso. Bracciale più adatto a chi ha il polso grosso. Sono, comunque, molto soddisfatto dell'acquisto. Per la cifra spesa, non credo si possa pretendere di più. Spero di esservi stato utile

Great mechanism, looks fantastic. Issue with the spring bar on the buckle, it was too loose or maybe damaged. The buckle slips off the spring bar when I wear it. The strap is stiff also so soften the strap by keeping the watch strapped when not using it. It will put less pressure on the spring bar and not damage it then. I bought a new spring bar set and used a 25mm one, it's an easy fix and works great now :)
