03The community take

Owners talk.

“

Owners widely praise the Alexander James A3 Omen Quartz for its exceptional value, with many citing the sapphire crystal and Seiko VH31 quartz movement as standout features for its price point. The sweeping second hand is a notable detail, and some owners find the dial's appearance in different lighting conditions captivating, particularly with the updated green crystal. Accuracy is reported within +/- 10 seconds per month, and the watch is considered a strong field watch contender. However, some find the full brand name on the dial to be tacky, and one owner noted the lume is splotchy and fades quickly, with the seconds hand not perfectly aligning with minute markers. On balance, owners rate the Alexander James A3 Omen Quartz highly for its impressive specifications and value at its price point, despite minor criticisms regarding dial text and lume application.
