I searched for this watch after finding it on another site for over twice the price and falling in love with it. I was thrilled to find it so inexpensively on Amazon, and purchased it immediately- it was delivered barely two days later. It came with a working battery and was ready to go right out of the box. Beyond the price and quality, the watch itself is just gorgeous, with a modern, easy to read face and unique leather band. It looks just like the picture. I highly recommend it.
