After doing a little research Eco-Drive seemed like a good way to go.  I also have an automatic watch and to keep it going ended up getting a winder, with Eco-Drive no such expensive accessory is needed.

Personnally, I do not like the band but a quick trip to the mall resolved that and I am happy with the rubber strap I got.  A leather strap would have given it a more formal look, but I wanted more a casual look.

The luminous hands do not glow as strongly as I expected, or would like, but you can read it.

Setting it took several days because of the day/date combination.  First time the day changed and not the date, then the date and not the day.  Finally got it and it has been fine ever since.  In addition to English abbreviations there are French days as well.  When you push the adjuster back in there is a one second delay before the second hand moves.

After two weeks it is less than two seconds off the NIST time I used to set it.

Build quality is very good and the dial is aligned perfectly and very easy to read in daylight.

Overall, I recommend this watch.
