The ground-breaking M1 sports watch offers a unique combination of style, function, and quality worthy of the Momentum standard. With a 42-millimeter case made of tough 316L stainless steel, this high-performance watch also features a heat-tempered, anti-glare mineral crystal and a durable, 18-millimeter stainless-steel wristband with a double-locking fold-over clasp for additional security. The striking orange "Blackout Superluminous" dial provides amazing legibility even in the dark. Large Arabic numerals and easy-to-see hour and minute hands offer complementary stylish design as well as easy-to-use functionality. Additional details include a date calendar located at the three o'clock position, a unidirectional ratchet bezel, and waterproof screwdown crowns. The watch is waterproof to a depth of 660 feet and is powered by Japanese quartz movement.

The M1 has been an excellent watch. I have worn it daily for three years, and other than a battery change has worked perfectly. The dial layout is very readable, especially in water. The completely luminous dial makes it easy to read in the dark. It is styled very well, with good overall look and good dial and hand design. Still ticking after tons of drops, hits, and bangs. Never problematic in the ocean.
Great affordable dive watch

Great dive watch. Not too big; very lightweight. The bezel turns smoothly and the face is extremely luminous for night dives. This watch is for people who don't want to shell out a lot of money for a dive watch and just want one that's dependable and rugged.
Fantastic watch!

I recommend this St Moritz M 1 Momentum 100%. I've always wanted a dive watch, and after checking out Citizen, Seiko and others, the M1 caught my attention. It is gorgeous, elegant and striking. Should be a lot more $$$.
Japanese quartz, great warranty, screw crown and screw back..plus the choice of colors and bands, all make this THE watch to get. St Moritz has impeccable customer service, and all around, you will be enthralled with this watch. Every time I look at it I feel happy! I never take it off......Looking forward to snorkeling and swimming with it too! Great great watch from a great company. D Meola

I love this watch! I looked around for a good dive watch that wouldn't break the bank, and was introduced to the M1 at my local dive center. I opted for the rubber strap, which is long enough to fit on your forearm even over 7mm wetsuits. The face of the watch is simple, elegant, uncluttered and easy to read under water. The dials provide the right amount of contrast and are highly luminous even in low-visibility conditions. With the stainless steel strap, this watch looks like it just as easily belongs in a boardroom as it does on a boat.
After having owned this watch for almost two years, I can see just a slight indication of wear on the bezel surface, which isn't bad considering how much my watch has bumped against scuba cylinders, lead weights, boat railings and the occasional concrete wall.
great watch. period.

I spent a few months looking at watches before pulling the trigger on this watch. I was looking for an analog watch with a full Arabic numbered face. I also wanted something rugged and water proof. I looked at Luminox watches, a few Citizen's, and Invicta's. the momentum had the best of all the watches I looked at and was cheaper.
Check out the companies website, they have great service and extended warranties. [...] I just ordered a new band. I bought the watch with the rubber dive band and because this is a real dive watch the band is long to fit over a wetsuit. I liked the cloth band as well so I order it just as a backup.
I've had this watch about a month and love it it tells time well, the bezeal is not flimsy like on fossil watches, the dial is easy to read at any time of day indoors or out. the face does glow for about 8 hours but it needs to be "charged" by light, either artificial or the sun, the longer it is in light the better and longer it will glow. having the watch on during the work day under a long sleeve shirt means the watch doesn't get much light so at night it will still be legible but you have to really stare at it since the glow is very dim. but still better then having to hit a button for a light.
I've read a few reviews of the white face version and I think someone complained about the size that it was too small. This is an average size men's watch. it looke big in the photos because the band is thin, which makes the case look big. this is common on dive watches. go check out some watches in a store to see. the luminox and tissot watches have the same illusion with their rubber bands. the face of the watch, the flat part where the hash lines for the minutes are located is about the size of a U.S. quarter. my wrist size is 7.5 inches and the watch looks fine, not too big or too small. F.Y.I. the Invicta watches (especially the dive watches) are flava-flav big, luminox's are big too but the face is small and recessed into the case. so their size is misleading as well.
