I just received the watch and activated it.  It wasn't running and I thought, oh no, they forgot the battery.  But no. I had to set the time to start it up.

The loud ticking, which annoyed several reviewers a bit is completely absent.  This watch is SILENT.  I have to look at the second hand to reassure myself it's running!  This was my one concern in ordering this watch, since there was so much mention of the ticking.

The Indiglo lights up the whole watch face, and the details are easily read.

Quite an attractive and functional watch.  I am pleased with it and like it a lot.  It's great to have an analog watch again with a second hand.  I like to exercise walk and sketch on my jaunts, and this watch will help me judge the distance I have walked by how long it took me. Otherwise I have to pull out my cell phone and hit a button or flip it open all the time. Now I can get the time at a glance, so easily.

Highly recommended.  I will update this review if necessary if I need or want to add any further comments.
