I like this silver watch a lot better than the gaudy, gold eyesore that was the 1276 II model. It's a lot less flashy and aesthetically pleasing, especially the watch face itself which shimmers in the light like sunlight dancing on the surface of a lake. The fact that now this review has gone past the borders of poetry calls for a swift end to this writing but I can assure you that this is a nice watch with perfectly functioning chronograph features and a muted style that should go over well with most men.
