I've had the watch for several weeks now. Nice size, feels heavy/substantial. The orange face looks great next to the blue cuffs of my Oxford buttondowns. The crystal is recessed a bit from the bezel, so I'm hoping it will be less likely to scratch. Unlike with some watches, it's easy to change the day and date. I like the screw-down crown, makes me feel a little more secure that water won't get into it (not that I've done any diving with it other than some "pearl diving" after dinner). The watch seems accurate to me, maybe just a touch on the fast side (some days it seems a half minute to a minute fast by the end of the day, other days it's dead on throughout--this is my first automatic watch so I'm not sure what groove it's going to settle into). A couple of people have complimented me on the watch, which is a first--never had that happen before. I have other watches that I like to wear, so the downside for me is trying to keep it running in between wearings (I don't have a watch winder to put it on when I'm not wearing it). It's not a super big deal when I pick it up again and find that it has stopped--it's easy to set despite having the day and date complications. The hands and hour markers really glow when I first turn out the light at night after reading in bed for a while, and for the first hour or so I can glance at the watch on my nightstand and have no trouble telling what time it is, but if I wake up in the wee hours of the morning the glow has faded to the point where it is difficult if not impossible to tell the time. Overall one of my favorite watches and I highly recommend it.

P.S. I've lived with the watch for several months now, wearing it six or seven days a week, and it has settled down to gaining about a minute a week--pretty accurate for an automatic watch. (The day I don't wear it, usually a Sunday, is not a problem because the watch has enough reserve power to see it through the day and it is still ticking when I strap it on my wrist Monday morning.) I live with the slight gain in time until the watch gets four or five minutes ahead, then I reset it. So I only have to reset it about once a month. That seems like a small price to pay for never having to worry about batteries. My Orange Monster still looks brand new, no scratches anywhere, but then I'm pretty easy on my watches and I certainly haven't gone diving with it! (But it's neat knowing that I could if I wanted to!) Love the watch and highly recommend it if you're looking for a sturdy, sporty watch.
