Wristwatch Review: Geneva Men's Quartz Dress Watch with Date Window

I recently purchased a Geneva brand Men's Quartz Dress Watch with Date Window (Model KH8070SL)  from Kohl's.  It's a nice looking dress watch that seems very well finished for a basic department store watch.

Geneva Watch Features


This watch features quartz movement and a small date window about the 6 o'clock hour baton.  There is a small amount of lume on the tip of most silver-toned hour markers.  The watch also comes with a generously-sized synthetic leather strap.

Geneva Watch Dimensions


The case is 40mm in diameter and 10mm thick.  The watch strap is 22mm wide at the lugs and tapers to about 20mm.  The case is thin enough to slip easily under a shirt cuff and the strap is long enough to fit a large wrist like mine.  According to the Kohl's website, the overall circumference is 200mm.

Geneva Watch Construction


This Geneva watch offers a stainless steel caseback and a silver-toned alloy case.  It has a glass crystal that is very slightly domed.  For a watch that is listed as $30 to $35 and much less on the Kohl's website, construction seems fairly robust. Quality appears to be on par with most watch makers in the sub-$100 segment of the market.

Geneva brand Watch Origin


The watch was created by Concepts in Time for the Geneva brand sold at Kohl's.  I don't know enough about the progeny of this watch or the Concepts in Time company to definitely figure out who made the watch.  The Concepts in Time company is behind the Geoffrey Beene and Caribbean Joe watch brands for men.  You'll detect a common ancestry behind many quartz watches sold in stores today.
