I bought this watch in the sale and so for the price I paid I was fully prepared for the I bought this watch in the sale and so for the price I paid I was fully prepared for the shortcomings. You get what you pay for right?! Firstly, it’s quite heavy, which could be down to the fact that I haven’t worn a watch for years and so just need to get used to it again. The strap, as many have already said, is too short and for me an irritant, so I’ve ordered a replacement sports band on the bay of E. Finally, when I came to set the date, I had to rotate the hands through twenty five days worth of turns, which took me ages!!! Normally you would just pull out the winder button twice and then be able to alter the date in isolation of the time but that wasn’t the case. There may be a way to do that but I couldn’t work it out and that means that I’m going to have to go through the same kind of thing every time we have a month that contains 28 or 30 days. That’s not good! The positives are it’s a really good looking watch (subjective) that’s nicely finished and glows to make telling the time, when it’s dark, very easy. Overall I’m really pleased with it but not so sure I’d feel the same if I’d paid full price!
