## Description

Charged by any light with a four-month power reserve, our Expedition Scout Solar is a sustainable, adventure-ready companion powered by natural energy.

Review: So far so good - I hadn’t initially realised the watch was coming from the US. Some reviewers had said their packages arrived damaged, mine was absolutely perfect on arrival, despite it only being in a flimsy envelope. Following tracking, it took days to travel across the states but I received it in a day once it cleared customs in the UK. Three days ahead of the date I was given. Well done the post office! The watch itself is quite chunky. Feels solid and sturdy. After a couple of weeks it’s keeping perfect time. The strap looks ok but isn’t that comfortable, perhaps it’s still a bit stiff. The illumination only lasts momentarily. The face is clean and crisp but the second hand is almost impossible to see as it’s the same colour as the background. I like the solar power aspect of the watch, it seems to be working with no effort to keep it in the sun. I just hope it lasts as long as my first Timex watch. That is 53 years old and still running perfectly.
Review: A good watch. - An attractive watch, a clear face. Keeps accurate time. Looks more expensive than it was.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good watch.
*by R***8 on 11 September 2025*

An attractive watch, a clear face. Keeps accurate time. Looks more expensive than it was.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A few complaints, but scores well on the basics
*by M***L on 25 June 2025*

Plenty of issues, but the good outweighed the bad. Firstly, the watch arrived with compromised packaging - which seems to be the norm, if you read the other reviews. More specifically, it had been unpacked and then put back together wrongly, so that it only had one thin layer of card protecting it. Moreover, the crystal had a layer of dried-on, scummy water on it, and the case sides were covered in smudgy fingerprints. All very odd, but it cleaned up well and I couldn't find any actual damage. Other negatives - the dark grey second hand moves across a dark grey dial, and consequently can't be seen. The body of the watch is quite chunky, approx 11.5mm deep. I'm not sure why this is necessary, as my Bering Solar watch measures at about 7.5mm. I guess the date complication needs extra space, but I'd rather lose that and have a slimmer watch. The choice of strap is also puzzling - beige with bright orange highlight threads. Why did they decide on this match-up? The dial is dark grey with pale green markers, so there is no real attempt at matching colours. In every other respect, the watch is very nice. High quality finish, and an attractive gunmetal shade. The dial design is also quite smart, although the lume appears to be minimal, showing up only on the minute and hour hands - not the markers. The leather strap, despite the colour choice, is high quality and very comfortable. The time-keeping appears fine and the crown operation feels better than most of my other watches. Overall, I am happy.
