Build quality is high as both my previous Ingersoll's from Drop have been .

Have only had a few hours with this watch and so far I am impressed as for the money these Ingresoll's punch well above their weight . Setting the time , date , week and year week is fairly simple as I have a few other watches with pushers and learned a while ago to set them with the watch at between 4pm to 8pm and all is good . I like the butterfly clasp , its nice and matches the imitation Alligator strap really well and I think after a bit of wearing and a few dubbin's it will settle in well . The look in rose gold is very classy as is the dial , very well done and even under a 10x Lupe I cant really fault it and my wife like's it so that's a plus for me . One more thing ,,, I can't get over the extremely classy fully wooden box these Ingresoll's come in , I have 3 now with another on the way ... Need a bigger cabinet ! More reviews in a few weeks after it's worn in a bit .

Beautiful

I know that it's not an expensive watch, but my Ingersoll Columbus is absolutely beautiful. I love the 'Moon Phase' feature, along with the buckle clasp on the leather band. I collect watches, including Omegas and Rolexes, but the Columbus has not left my wrist in three weeks.

Solid and beautiful watch.

I bought one with the intention of giving it away but when i opened the box, i knew it was a keeper. Only gripe is that I'm not sure how to adjust the moonphase and the date setting is confusing.

Solid, good looking watch

No idea how this watch could sell for $84. Quality seems equal to my $850 Shinola. I’m not really a watch guy, but I own several expensive pieces (Ernst Benz, Beaume & Mercier). I would have guessed the Ingersoll sold for several thousand $. Have gotten compliments each time I‘ve worn it. Very pleased with this purchase and would absolutely buy another Ingersoll.

Initial impressions are superb - instructions suck - Here's the deets.

I got the rose gold finish and love it. The dial is beautiful. My one singular gripe with the watch is that the second hand doesn't QUITE land top dead center at 12. But otherwise, I really dig this thing. The complications all play nicely with one another and it's got just the right vintage charm. Would I have preferred an automatic? Yes. But for what I paid, this is definitely going to be a keeper. Very classy/dressy for someone who likes complications. The size is perfect on my tiny baby wrists, coming in as "large but not huge". A bit thick, but not annoyingly so. A bit heavy, but it also kinda fits. The clasp works fine, but I don't love the butterfly style on leather bands, I find it a bit awkward to put on and thick at the bottom. I can definitely work with it, but if it ever dies, a normal leather band is going on it. The leather is really nice. Not the absolute best, but also much nicer than a watch at this price point. I normally don't like the crocodile leather imprint style, but on this, it fits. No lume other than the hour/minute/second, but I'm not wearing this on duty anyways. The box it comes in is outrageously nice for the price, the packaging presentation is much nicer than either of my $500 watches was. Wooden box, metal "card" with the authenticity certificate, a THICK manual that's totally crap (it's got like fifteen languages but no actual walkthrough on how to set up this complication-heavy movement) and a beautiful watch. The only gripe I have is the manual does NOT tell you how to set the watch and you have to take the case back off to figure out the movement because it isn't listed on the website. The manual tells you what each button does, not how they work. So, the movement is a Ronda 706.B Swiss 5 jewel (that wasn't listed on the drop at the time, but it now is). Here's a link to the manual https://www.ronda.ch/fileadmin/user_upload/Products/TA_BA/ba/7XX/BA_706-1.706-3.706B_e.pdf The whole thing has to be set up in a specific way, starting with the moon phase at the nearest full moon, then setting the day, then the week, then the date of that full moon, and then just using the crown to freewheel the watch until the current day. Not elegant, but since it is quartz, shouldn't need doing very often. Overall though, very classy, classic looking thing that I will likely wear a whole lot on my days off.

Problems out of the box -- repaired in the meantime

While attempting to change the calendar week (between 6am and 6pm as instructed), the calendar week hand got stuck between two weeks and will no longer advance. Furthermore the hour hand extends past the current hour mark towards the end of the hour (e.g. at 5:50 pm the hour hand is past the 6 index). I really wish I had not bought this, and if I cannot get a refund, I hope they will send a watch that works properly. EDIT: A friend of friend tinkered with the watch and got it working properly (hence the better rating), though the hands still don't line up with the indices as I would have hoped. The leather strap and clasp combination is unusual in my experience, and I haven't quite gotten used to it yet, but it's attractive and kind of fun. All in all a beautiful looking watch, though it would have been nicer if I had not encountered those initial issues.

sapeurdeluxeI feel for you,it is very concerning, not only does it take 4 weeks for a watch to get to me, if at all. The last order didn't arrive, but I have also ordered this watch. You have 30 days I believe to ask for recompense, I will be lucky if I have 2 days to do this. As with all my watch orders I look forward to receiving them; but now I am not so excited. I hope Drop sort this for you. So far, apart from delays; probably due to current events and possibly increased online activity they have been very good.

sapeurdeluxeDrop won't do anything to help (they never do so never buy a drop product that doesn't have an established manufacturer behind it) but the watch has a literal lifetime warranty my dude. Contact Ingersoll. You may have to pay for shipping, but they'll fix the watch. Alternatively, a new 706B movement is $30-$40. So if you're ever left high and dry for some reason, it's a common swiss movement that's easy to replace. And lastly, the 706.B is designed so that it can be repaired and serviced. So a watch maker can service it and likely repair it for you as well.
