Dakota Watch Co.

Well, you might think we've gone off the deep end by carrying time keeping devices. But, they can be an essential ingredient to a day's fishing. I mean, if you're supposed to be at the boat by 4AM and you don't get there until 6AM chances are you're standing at the dock instead of running offshore with your buddies. It's nice to know what time it is...even if you're not clock watching. Sure, you may have a nice Rolex, Omega or Tag watch, but does it really belong on a fishing trip? Maybe for you, but not for me. I prefer something a little less expensive on my wrist if I'm banging around on a boat. I came across a manufacturer of quality timepieces, watches with many designs that will interest fishermen. The firm has been in business since the 1940's, and their designs are very unique. I'm especially keen on their carabener style watches, like the fact that I can have my watch on my hip instead of my wrist when I'm fishing or working in a more physical mode. Dakota has some really unique styles, with features I think you'll appreciate. They are well built, and well backed by the manufacturer. Trick stuff, indeed!!!

The Dakota Watch Company has been dedicated to producing high quality timepieces since 1945. From over fifty years experience, we have learned that you want a watch that incorporates cutting edge design, the best quality components, a substantial guarantee, and if necessary, quick and easy service behind the sale.

Our design team has developed unmatched expertise in creative watch production. For well over fifty years we have designed thousands of styles with a strong emphasis on craftsmanship. Our Dakota styles are unique and expressive of today's desire for multipurpose use. From rugged sports elegant dress, to digital functions, Dakota has whatever you are looking for and a little something extra.

The Dakota line of watches is designed and produced for the outdoorsman by the outdoorsman. Our team is full of avid anglers and adventure seekers who love nothing more than to put our latest creations to the test. From the Bahamas to the Dakotas, each watch is quality tested and assured of maximum endurance. This dedication is what makes us a forerunner in outdoor watch design.

Throw in at least a 5 Year Guarantee and the Dakota series is the perfect watch for the avid weekend adventurer, extreme sport fanatic, or Wall Street warrior. Available in a wide variety of Men's and Women's styles, the Dakota series is sure to have something for everyone.

REQ VIBE

What makes this watch so special is the Electromagnetic Quartz Movement. The charger (pictured below) allows you to recharge the quartz cell inside, instead of having to replace the battery. This is achieved by Induction Charging, so no wires, or plugs, the current passes through the back of the watch to charge the battery. No battery replacement is required. In addition, the REQ uses less moving parts; watches can be made thinner and lighter. With an impressive limited 10 year warranty there really never should be a need to open this factory sealed water resistant watch.

I bought one of these watches this year (2006) to compliment my Angler II - for those times I actually want to have a watch on my wrist. It's been a dandy piece. I like the unobtrusive vibrating alarm feature a lot, and it's saved me countless opportunities for getting on the wrong side of my wife for being late picking her or our son up... The fact that I don't have to worry about batteries is an added bonus that's much appreciated. The case is great, it looks good, has a bunch of features that make this watch a dandy thing to own. - Mark

REQ
Torch

It's Rechargeable! Because of our REQ Rechargeable Movement, you can literally "forget about the battery." The S.O.S. Torch also features our Dual Layer LED Dial Lights with (3) Operating Modes: 1) Dial Illumination, 2) Flashlight, 3) S.O.S. Signal (the LED lights actually flash the Morse Code signal for S.O.S.). This S.O.S. Torch also features our Interchangeable Bezel & Shield. This includes a removeable Lid to protect the watch crystal from the elements. Using the included Screwdriver, the Shield Lid can be changed to the included Bezel for a completely new look!

REQ S.O.S. Torch (Black)

SKU: 82920
� 3 Mode Integrated LED Lights: 1) Dial Light, 2) Flashlight, 3) S.O.S. Signal
� 8 Hour Charge runs watch for 1 month
� 330 Feet Sting Ray Water Resistant
� Solid Stainless Steel Case and Band
� Interchangeable Shield Lid and Bezal
� Two Tone IP Black and Brushed Steel
� Black Dial
� Textured Center Links
� Luminescent Hands
� Luminescent Hour Markers
� Micro Screwdriver Included
� REQ Charging Stand Included

The SOS Torch is a trick watch. Like the REQ above, you'll never need batteries with this watch thanks to the charging stand. The most notable features are the protective cover and the light functions. You have both a bright LED dial light with three LED's in blue and a VERY bright flashlight with three red led's. Press the button on the side of the watch again and it sends out a bright SOS signal. This watch has no digital readout, so there's no day/date function or alarm. It's a basic watch, with not so basic operating features. This is another one that I bought (my third Dakota watch...). It's a great watch for boaters, with a non blinding red flashligt handy for rigging assistance. The luminous hands and numbers are also useful, but I find myself using the blue illumination much more often. The protective cover is a most useful thing when you're banging into stuff...something I'm known to do. And the watch also comes with another couple covers as shown in the picture below.
