built tough and nice weight December 29, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
For the price you can't beat this gem. It's the perfect size for me since I like large dials, and you need it to see the little details of the slide rule. It's a good weight, so it feels like it costs more than it should, and I get compliments all the time about it. It is also shinier and the polished chrome stands out better in person than pictures depict. I gave it four stars since I can't give it 4.5 stars. In my opinion 5 stars is perfect, and I am of the lot who believe that we should always strive for perfection but never attain it.
Great everyday watch.
Seiko Chronograph December 27, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I've owned this watch for over a year now, and have been extremely satisfied with it's performance. I have worn it daily and can say that the crystal is very tough. I have accidently bounced it off of aircraft structure several times in the past year, and have been sure I've cracked or scratched it, but upon inspection have found no damage. As a matter of fact aside from a few minor scratches on the band, it looks as good as it did when it came out of the box. The photos do this watch no justice. It is much better looking than the pictures show. The bezel is easy to rotate yet has no "play" in it. Do not count on this watch to wake you up in the morning, as the alarm is nearly inaudible. The slide rule functions are accurate but very difficult to use while on the wrist. I recieved this watch "brand new" with all packaging and instructions/warranty cards intact. All 3 crowns are "screw down" so using the stopwatch functions involve a lot of rotating but this is a true chronograph and with a little practice, all the functions are easy to use. I highly recommend this watch if you are in the market for a good looking watch that you can depend on as a "daily driver".
Great Watch December 25, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I am 16 years old and I recieved this watch for a Christmas gift. It is a great watch the bracelet feels great, you can really tell this is a good quality watch from how heavy it is. The sweeping chronograph hand is a very nice option. The only rating I could give this is five stars.

I bought this watch and the best i can say of it is that i was still surprised after i received it, simply because it looks and feels even better than i was expecting. As everyone seems to agree it is a bit heavy on the wrist, but the bracelet is as confortable and steady as it should be. My rate could only be 5 stars for the product itself, and the shipping time (since i clicked on the page untill my door bell rang it took less than 4 days with an atlantic ocean crossing), and also for the price wich is unbeatable. Still i would like to point out that i received no guarantee stamp or purchase date with it (what makes me assume that it has no guarantee at all wich is shamefull even iwith the excuse of the price payed) the case where the watch came was far from being the original one (it looks, feels ans smells (!) like a very old and used one), and that the watch didn't had any plastic cover protecting the glass. in the end 5 stars for the product and the delivery, 1 star for the packing cares.
Best Watch Money Can Buy............. December 12, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I simply love this watch. I wore this watch to work and got so many nice comments about it. I got it on a great deal from Amazon 180 bucks. It looks much better when i wear it. Guys dont get fooled by the pic, this watch looks 100 times much better than the pic.
