This is a great watch that looks very classy and refined, yet casual.  I have owned it for about a year now and enjoyed it while it worked.  The only issue is that the winding mechanism and counter weight is susceptible to shock.  My 12 month year got a hold of the watch while I was not watching (no pun intended) and after a few knocks on the coffee table it broke.  I opened the watch to see about fixing it where upon I saw the small screws and shafts were broken that hold the winding counterweight.  But I wouldn't fault the watch explicitly as it more of a user error.  But I would have expected more robustness, hence why I knocked it down one star to just 4.  I would however buy it again... just keep it away from small children.
