My husband loves this watch!  He had a Swiss military watch before but it needed parts that would have been very expensive.  So I searched a lot.  I was looking for a Timex because I have had such good luck with that brand but couldn't find the one I or he wanted that was in our price range.  Then I found this one & as I said, he loves it & it has all the features he wanted. Now if it will just last as long as my Timex watches have. Time will tell.
