I received This watch as a X-Mas gift way back in 2007 and I loved it. Great design, nice weight, keeps good time and it is a great conversation piece. The watch is also very durable, I wore it as my everyday watch and after a few years it has it's share of scratches and scuffs but still works just as well as it did the day I received it. I had considered purchasing another just like it to start over fresh before deciding to go with a different watch from the same company (which I will review once I've had it a little longer). All in all this is a great piece that I cannot recommend highly enough.
