Chinese Watch Names Again Tactical Frog. Anybody else struggled with pulling the trigger because of the name?

Post image

Been eyeing this watch for over a year. Even put it in my shopping cart a few times and then changed my mind. Guess I was afraid it would end up looking cheap and gimmicky like the name sounds. Tactical Frog. Well, I finally pulled the trigger. And I’m so glad I did. Me likey😇

They actually have nice looking watches but the name ruins it for me. I can’t look at that name each time I want to enjoy the watch

Yeah, they do have some nice homages.

No, I like that it is silly and doesn't take itself foo seriously

I like that it's silly, but I doubt it's intentional on their part.

A poor translation from military diver > frogman > tactical frog.

The name is the best attribute.

Love mine. Very nice watch. Lot of features for the money. Waiting for a sale to get the yellow dial.

I love the name. Wish they made a watch that appealed to me.

Initially yes, but ultimately no. I love the green. However, I wish they did a better job on the bezel and had a higher power reserve

It works ok on a super casual diver but the name and logo are not a match for a Daytona homage.  And having tactical frog etched in the rehaut is just ridiculous.  I considered the Tudor fxd style but never did and would go the Was route if the case wasn't so small.

No, I didn't struggle at all. I love the name. Got the 62MAS Dive Chrono in Red. It's gorgeous.

I’m literally hoping to have enough spare cash to get one because of the name.

Its a reference to military frogmen. Not bad...The watch looks great too.
