COURG : Zero-Hour

Watch in Buffalo. I'm in Toronto. Waiting for open border.

Most accurate automatic I’ve ever owned. By a long shot. Great watch!

I look is very sleek and classic. No brand names on the face. Light weight and a good size, not to big or small. I got the leather band and it adds to the look. I did have an issue and had to send it back. Service and communication was good but slow.

Man i dont know where to begin this review. I initially tried to purchase the courg zero hour while deployed overseas. I was looking for a lightweight tool watch that could stand up to use in the field and needles to say the courg fit that bill very well with its 39mm titanium case, reliable Seiko NH35 movement, scratch resistant sapphire crystal, 200m wr, and elapsed time bezel. Unfortunately we ran into problems shipping it to my APO address overseas and eventually I opted to have Redux just send the watch to my home address in the states. Not only was Redux patient in trying to work with their shipping agency in figuring out how to get the watch to me, they also retroactively refunded me 15% as I qualified for the Valliant Alliance membership (which I was not aware of at the time of purchasing), and even included a couple of beautiful extra straps free of charge. That kind of customer service is pretty rare today to say the least, and is a true testament to the integrity of the company. Now regarding the actual product, what can I say, it does what its meant to do very well. The zero hour dial is very legible both day and night which is important in my type of work. The lume is quite nice, the crown threads very well into the case, and this watch has one of the better executed date apertures Ive seen in a long time. The case is very comfortable to wear and for a 39mm watch has great wrist presence - if you're on the edge because of the size I would say go for it. The straps are also really well made and very comfortable. Overall a great watch from a great company!

My Redux is an awesome watch. Nothing about it that I don’t like. And the customer service is just as awesome!

This watch has become my everyday wear. High quality build feels substantial on your wrist. Easy to read dial. Love it.

It really is a handsome looking watch. Clean, clear design and not too big like some watches. Already got my eye on the brown strap for it :-)

I bought this as a welcome home gift for my boyfriend after his deployment. He loves it! It’s a well made watch. Sturdy and high quality. Attention to detail is clearly something Redux takes pride in. We couldn’t be happier with the purchase. We look forward to purchasing other bands once they are back in stock.

I wanted my watch simple and stripped of all superfluous accessories. She is strong and reliable and follows me everywhere in my outdoor activities. It is nice to finally see an object built to last far from the usual fashion and consumer standards.

Thankyou！very good！I like this！

i bought a watch 5 weeks ago; my father was in the jewelry business; i am tired of boring watches; your watch is terrific; it is interesting, the numbers are large and easy to read; all the aspects of the watch make it fun; there are many kind of watches and they have all kinds of information on them; they are all difficult to read and boring; thank you for designing a real interesting watch at a reasonable price

Looks nice as expected , fun, band interesting and useful . Runs about 4 mins fast over 3 days

This watch is a great field watch: comfortable, easy for a quick read, reliable and sharp looking. Only wish: a very minor, subtle logo on the watch face would be a nice addition.

Rate results better than Courg 1. Minus 5 secs per day vs. minus 10 secs.

Love the look, weight, and feel, but the watch stopped over the weekend for no apparent reason. Taking it to watch repair store Monday.

Wasn’t sure at first if I’d like a slightly smaller watch than I was used to. Turns out that out that my

am very pleased with the watch. yust as i expected. wasn't that pleased with the dutch customs though.... they charged me an extra 150 dollars!

Overall I am quite happy with the Zero Hour but it does have a few flaws.

1. The rotating bezel has a lot of play between the stops. Tightening up the tolerances on the ratcheting mechanism would improve the quality of the watch.
2. The painted lume on the face could be better. Switching to a higher quality luminous paint would be one solution, tritium capsules would be my preference.
3. Something inside the watch does rattle a bit when the watch jiggles.
Those issues aside, I am very happy with the purchase. The watch is worth the price even with them.
As an added note, the watch pairs perfectly with the Prometheus Design Werx Titanium Watch Band Compass.

Love my watch use it everyday and its perfect for my watch collection as a matter a fact i order another one.

Life can be beautiful with simple things, this watch just given me this feeling wearing it.

Titanium is beautiful however there needs to be some design work done to get the bezel to rotate smoothly.

The lume is also disappointing as a watch at that price point should have self lume.

Automatic workings are also noisy and audible when the watch is moving.

Great watch Terrible watchband

It's a nice watch that sadly doesn't get much wristtime as it should. The reason is because it was my first kickstarter watch which looked and sounded awesome as an ad, but in reality it didnt captivate me as much when i finally received it. I felt like i had paid for a anonymous watch.

I have paid this watch, at LEAST have some kind of quality for the hand movement. The second hand does not line up to the face. The entire of the second hand is shifted to 1mm. I do not use the clock any more. By the way, are you guys giving feedback 1 year ago? You should have waited another year.

I was really excited throughout the build up, but the actual product was poor. The movement rattles around in the casing. Super disappointed.

Well-built to endure endless abuse, my COURG has not left my wrist since the day I received it. If durability, legibility, and style matter to you, COURG is the watch for you.

When I saw this finely crafted timepiece, I knew I had to have it. Although mine was used, it was still in excellent condition. I have plenty of field and pilots watches, but something about the Zero Hour dial had me sold. Simple and straight to the point. Perhaps the only con I have is the lume. I'll usually hang my watches above my lamp when I get home from work. A couple hours later when I go to bed most of my watches are glowing bright. However, the COURG seems to start fading within 10min or so. Not a deal breaker, but IMHO I think the creator should have gone with BGW9.
Other than that...this watch gets the most wrist time than all my other watches...

I love this watch. It is has been my everyday wear for a year and been with me to the Middle East, the UK, and Seattle in the heat and the wet. It is attractive, especially with the leather band. It does lose about a minute or three per month so it has to be reset monthly but that is par for automatic watches, I guess. Recommended.

Very well built watch and 100% satisfied.

First, the size of the watch was just too small for me, and the quality of the bezel movement felt flimsy. I sold the watch to John Boehm within a month of its arrival and took a loss. Good Luck in your future endeavors.

Be Safe,

When I received my watch there were some very bad quality control issues. This with a very poor customer service platform. After approx. 1 year and shipping my watch off twice it was repaired. I have had my watch now for a month and I haven't worn any other watch. Hopefully the QC and the customer service issues have been addressed. You would have got 5 stars if you didn't have my watch for the repairs for this very long time.
