I work in a Dakota Watch kiosk so I consider myself a bit an expert in the Dakota Brand. I have had my Angler for a couple months and I love it. I wear it everyday and it can take a pretty good beating. (Posted on 4/2/12)
I have had my "Big Angler" for about a year. I have one complaint. In months having less than 31 days the calendar date does not advance to the correct date. I understand a $55 dollar watch isn't the ultimate in time pieces but my previous work watches (Casio's from Walmart for $20) managed to always show the correct date. (Posted on 3/3/12)
