  • My New Daily Wear!
Size: Medium/Large - 42mm Color: Meridian Navy Solar
I am a watch person, appreciating complicated movements, Swiss engineering, Japanese engineering, material selection, accuracy and durability. My Vaer DS4 is rock solid, waterproof, keeps time, and looks hundreds of dollars above price. Solar is more than added bonus than I thought. Unlike an automatic that has to be reset when you leave it in your drawer for too long, this will go six months on one charge of six hours in the sunlight. And despite the band being rubber, they somehow made it as comfortable as leather, which makes it a great choice for all day wear. Couldn’t be happier! ... show more

  • For this price, good luck finding a better quality dive watch anywhere!
If you haven’t heard of Vaer, do yourself a favor and do some research. What they are doing right now is making some of the best dive and field watches for the price point you can buy. This DS4 is a perfect example of their craftsmanship in a no frills package. Classic dive style, with 200m water resistance, screw down crown and caseback, and with a sapphire crystal (good luck finding that at this price). The bezel action is crisp, indices all line up perfectly, the dial has a beautiful sunburst effect and with solar movement, it’s set and forget. The FKM rubber tropic strap is excellent quality, super pliable, and you get an extra nylon strap. The straps being quick change means you can add any strap you want easily. For this price, good luck finding a better dive watch anywhere! The two founders of Vaer are very involved in all facets of their operation and design and are doing some great work right now. This isn’t some big corporation pumping out mass produced pieces. This is a small operation making some great watches at reasonable prices you’d be hard pressed to find somewhere else. If you’re at all concerned about the origins of this watch, don’t be. The movement, the finishing, everything about this watch is top notch in every way. The Horween leather strap in the picture is from Vaer and is beautiful! The ridged FKM rubber strap is from StrapHabit, another small business doing top quality work. ... show more

  • Great watch, great value, one extremely annoying quirk
Size: Small - 38mm Color: Meridian Black Solar
I really like this watch. I think the design is unimpeachable: the fonts on the bezel are utilitarian and clear, the bezel has a delightful crunchiness when you turn it, the entire face feels solid and well-crafted, and the hands are legible and distinct. I wish they used a more powerful lume, as it's not the brightest lume in pitch darkness, but it's at least serviceable However: the crown has an annoying habit of unscrewing extremely easily. I bought this watch to be a daily driver, something I'm wearing while I'm hiking or walking the dog or riding my bike or swimming or whatever. I've found that I have to monitor the watch very closely if I'm being active: if I hit a big bump on my bike, the very first thing I have to do is check the crown. Same if I'm hiking and bump it against a tree or if I'm roughhousing with my dog and she clips the watch. I haven't taken it fully swimming yet, but I'm worried about how the crown will react to strong tides, and for a diver that shouldn't be a worry Again: I think overall it's great and I won't be returning it. But I advise other buyers to keep this in mind, and I implore Vaer to figure out a way to keep the crown locked down more solidly ... show more

  • Outstanding quality watch
Size: Medium/Large - 42mm Color: Meridian Navy Solar
Beautiful fit and finish. I really like the weight it has - the sapphire dome is impressive. Would like future version to perhaps have a slightly larger date window. That said, I’m very pleased with it!

  • Watch got water inside
Was excited to buy this watch. Loved the look and style. Just swam in the pool a handful of times and water got inside. The one time I wanted to wear on a fishing trip it fogged. Really ridiculous. It is a dive watch for Christ sake. 200M and couldn't handle my pool. Contacted the company and they said, "Did you unscrew the crown? Because if you did the warranty is void." Didn't even know you could unscrew the "crown". Not sure about anyone else, but I pull my watches out of the box and wear. Never been told to screw down a crown before. The company seemed more interested in not fixing the problem, but trying to pass blame. Horrible customer service. ... show more

  • Great for the price
This watch looks nice in the wrist and has performed very well. I tend to somewhat hard on dive watches and this one is holding up beautifully with no scratches so far. Solar charging has also worked well.

  • Best bang for your buck out there :)!!
My 2nd Vaer - bought the first one from Vaers website bought this one from Amazon. I wanted it for the weekend and vaers website couldn’t guarantee it- I hope they didn’t lose too much to Amazon on the sale . I bough the 42 mm which also has the date ( the 38mm doesn’t ) a great size for my 7 1/2 inch wrist . I also have the D4 meridian in navy with a couple of extra straps ( great value on Vaer $20 !) A very high quality robust sharp looking watch - very very happy with it - I love the ability to swap out straps - my only ( very mild ) gripe is that the premium steel bracelet for the 38mm doesn’t fit my new 42 mm ( obviously !;) Found a nice quick release strap here and it’s perfectly suitable I honestly don’t think there’s a better value out there .. Well done Vaer ... show more

  • Poor Quality
Size: Small - 38mm Color: Meridian Black Solar
Great looking watch but feels very cheap. The watch face moves when the crown isn’t screwed down. Im going to return it because the build quality does not make me feel confident it will last. You’re better off looking a Seiko or islander watch for a very similar price but with far better build quality. ... show more
