I had my reservations about the practicality of a solar powered watch but was I surprised as to how reliable this technology is in this watch.  I can honestly say I love it.  It is very stylish and keeps great time.  Setting the day and date is a bit cumbersome but other than that, the watch has performed well beyond my expectations.  The price is extremely reasonable, too.  You cannot go wrong with this watch.  I would definitely buy another if I needed another watch.
