I've been searching for an old-fashioned wind-up watch because I'm tired of buying watch batteries and having the old ones end up in a land fill. This is exactly what I wanted. Plus the band isn't leather, which I won't buy, and it's not plastic which I also don't like.  And olive happens to be one of my favorite colors. The trick is getting used to winding a watch every morning again. But it's worth it to not have to buy batteries anymore.
