This is a review for the NIXON Men's NXA1271062 Matte Gunmetal Ion-Plated Case Watch which is listed by Nixon as The Chronicle in Matte Black/Matte Gunmetal.

I don't think there is another review here for this watch because no one has mentioned the huge difference in color from the watch pictured to what it really is.

The picture infers a brushed silver gunmetal finish with a satin sheen and the same for the face. The real watch is a very dark gray almost a green gray. True to Nixon's description and it is definitely a matte finish as listed. This is not Amazon's fault, the same image for this watch is used across the Web as supplied by Nixon and I swear was the same on their site in February when I started shopping this watch but now that I'm writing this review their image is more accurate to the actual watch--to their credit.

I was Wow'd by the picture of this watch on Amazon and many other larger retail Web sites and not so much when I received the watch (March 29). I'm keeping it because it is still a great looking watching and what is pictured doesn't exist.

4 stars because it doesn't look like the image. I will post an image soon.
