My purchase arrived in a very timely manner.  After opening the outter cardboard box, I found an attractive Ram Instrument watch box.  First of all, I gave this watch four stars ONLY because of the band that it came with.  May be fine for some, but for me it was too small, and almost immediately began to shred around the holes.  The day I recieved the watch, I wore it and drove to the nearest big box store, and purchased a band very similar to my divers watch band, black and made of resin.  Perfect match. This watch has a synthetic sapphire crystal, which really resists scratches, and also has a screwdown crown.  After unscrewing the crown in order to set the time, I had a slight hassle getting the crown screwed back in.  There was no mention in the instruction booklet about this, but I discovered it on my own...in order to get the crown screwed back in, you have to push in on it with your thumb WHILE turning it.  No big deal, actually.  The screwdown crown helps with the water resistance, which is 330 feet.  Lastly, it has no calendar, which I knew when I bought it.  For me, having a calendar on an analog watch is just a pain in the you know where.  The black face makes it very easy to see the white numbers, white hands including second hand, and the military 24 hour numbers. This watch is oh so similar to the watches we wore way back during the Vietnam war, only a much improved design. I have seven watches, and this one has become my go-to watch.  Great deal for the moola.  I HIGHLY recommend this watch to anyone looking for a good time piece that delivers what it was designed for...accurate time.  And at a very reasonable price.
