A good pocket watch can be tough to find these days, especially one that looks this good and runs this well. The large, easy-to-read hour, minute and second hands on a handsome black face are driven by a super-accurate Japanese quartz movement. The mineral glass crystal resists bumps and scratches from your keys and other pocket contents. Rugged and machined stainless steel cases feature either a black chrome or sandblasted finish. Silver oxide batteries provide up to two years of uninterrupted service. All components are water and pressure-resistant. Lanyard included. One-year warranty. Case diameter: 1.7". Available: Stainless Steel/Black, Stainless/Stainless.

Cabela's Pocket Watch,September 1, 2009
By Flagstonefrom CA
"Overview this pocket watch is very nice, keeping good time for the month I have now owned it.
Quality is excellent for the price, even though I agree with other reviewers that it could be a tad bigger.
Lanyard that comes with it is quite tacky and ugly. You will quickly replace it with some else, it won't matter what.
I expect to have this watch for a few years..."

Just what I needed!,May 4, 2009
By CATskinnerfrom El Paso, TX
"Finally a durable, accurate and affordable quality pocket watch. It is accurate and looks great. In my work, you need something besides a wrist watch. Size is just right, too. I'm a heavy equipment mechanic. I've broken every wrist watch I've ever owned. This is a "must have" for me. Thanks Cabela's!"

EDC pocket watch,March 17, 2009
By RBND
"A couple of years ago, I began to dislike the feel of a wristwatch for some reason. So I've been looking at pocket watches for a while. The $400 one is really nice but a bit big in the pants pocket and more for dress-up occasions anyway. The $40 ones just don't last. The Cabelas fits the bill for me.
Pros:
Classic design (unlike the gimmicky Dakotas) Large enough, legible dial and full size second hand. Costs a days pay instead of a weeks pay. Thin (1/4") and actually pocketable. Hard crystal, no scratches yet.
Cons:
None so far. The construction seems solid, and I'm hoping it'll hold up.
It comes with a huge lanyard. I made a much smaller one from 550 cord."

nice watch but...,January 21, 2009
By fishingdude36from Farmington New Mexico
"I ordered this watch so I could use it in my job. I like it because it is tough and complies with the safety rules and regulations of my job and of the companies I work for. The only thing i found disapointing was it's size. It is smaller than I expected. In the product discription it does not refer to its size, or I may have missed it. I will and have reccomended this product to my friends and in showing it to them, they like it but most have said that it seems small. Again, I like this product but I wish that it was a bit bigger. Thanks fishingdude36"

Good watch, but...,August 17, 2008
By WanderingJoe
"...okay, so maybe this will sound petty, but my small pocket watch arrived with a very large price tag stuck on the back. Not the kind that peel off cleanly, but the sort that leaves a residue of glue and shmutz. It won't be a major deal to remove, though I'll have to be careful about the abrasiveness of whatever I use, but since the watch is shipped in a plastic box that also has the price tag, why put one on the watch itself and require the extra cleaning? Otherwise, the watch is fine."

always there,June 23, 2008
By middleberryfrom Vermont
"I had purchased one awhile back and used it faihfully for many years, then when I went to get something from my pocket it must have fallen out. I had lost it. I looked at a lot of pocket watches. They are somewhat hard to find. This model is still the best out there. It is easy to read, good looking and can take a reasnable beating. It can't be dropped from to great a distance though, the second hand sweep becomes doslodged. The cord that attaches to your belt could be bit longer, but I believe it is the best buy for the money."

Cabela's pocket watch,February 19, 2008
By Jennifer1from Cornelius, Oregon
"I bought this pocket watch for my husband. He is a farmer, who is hard on watches. After about 4 weeks the metal loop on the top came apart from the watch, but nothing that a pocket tool couldn't take care of. He likes the large display and simple black background. His last pocket watch (different brand) lasted 10 years, hope this one will as well."

Cabela's Field Pocket Watch,November 12, 2007

a good watch,October 9, 2007
By Anonymousfrom Northwest Montana
"Good pocket watches are hard to find, most are decorative junk. I am a rancher and cannot wear a wrist watch because I am too hard on them. I have had several of these watches over the years and they are the real thing. They can go through the washing machine and dryer unharmed. These watches are tough and keep good time, what more could you ask for? Batteries last for about two years and are not that hard to replace. Overall, an excellent value."

Cabelas Pocket Watch,September 10, 2007
By JRTMomfrom Richmond, VA
"This watch was purchased for a gentleman with failing eyesight. The size of the face and contrast of the white numbers against the black background make the watch very easy to see. It is just the right weight for carrying around so it meets our expectations in every way. Thank you for another great product!"

Nice watch!,July 16, 2007
By WhiteMountainHunter
"I purchased this watch to use when deer hunting. I wasn't sure that I liked the size, it seems a little small. But after a bit of wear around town, the size is comfortable in a watch pocket, and the dial is easy for me to read. The problem i have is that it is almost too nice to use for a field watch."
