The watch looks very nice and was well described. However, I totally missed the fact (somehow) that this watch does not use a battery. Rather, it is the type that winds itself by the movement of your hand. That is not a problem; I was just confused at first when it arrived. Here are my pros and cons.

Pros:
-The purple face on the watch. It is a very rich, deep color.
-The magnification "chip" over the date is great
-Glow in the dark hands and number stops
-Seems to be made well and does not feel flimsy at all
-Price

Cons (don't really have any but...):
-I thought the watch was a bit heavy at first than I am used to. This is not a problem with the watch at all but I just wanted to note it.
-The watch band. Also, no not really a con per se but wanted to note that it is huge. I mean HUGE. I guess that is common but be prepared that you will have to remove several links. (I'm 6'1, 250 so I'm not a small guy)

A note about the pin that you pull out on the side of the watch to set the time. It is a new type for me. I'm sure other have dealt with this for a long time but I just wanted to mention to save you some time if you are not. You have to unscrew it, then pull it out to one of two positions. I was a bit confused at first because I kept trying to pull it out and it would not move. I thought it was broken and was thinking I would have to return it. I took out the booklet that came with it, read about how it worked and presto. No more issues. Had I done that in the first place, it would not have been a problem. But who reads instruction books any more. That is so 1990's. LOL

One other note, the magnification over the date is a small raised piece of plastic/glass raised above the crystal of the watch. I was concerned that I would bang it on things and cause it to break but so far no problems.

I really love the watch and think most other will as well.
