Ordered the watch on a Wednesday, it showed up Friday (with free shipping!).  Came from K.G. Company.  Showed up new, in the box, on a little pillow and everything. I got it super fast because of my proximity to the seller (I'm in San Diego, they're in LA).  I went back and forth for weeks on what watch to buy.  Due to the reviews, specifically the one where the guy was in the market for an Omega Seamaster and bought this watch instead.  I too am in the market for an Omega Seamaster (model 2200.50), but like that guy, I'm an expecting father also and couldn't justify spending $2500 on a watch right now.

So far, LOVE the watch.  Yes, the band, when not wearing it, seems a little "weak" and flimsy, but when you're wearing it, it's nice and flexible and moves with you and feels substantial enough.  Has nice adjustments (taking out the links and adjustments on the clasp also), so making it fit well, is a breeze.  The face is simple, easy to read and the luminous markers are pretty bright (especially compared to my other 2 Citizen watches).  Love the date and day feature.  Good sized watch, not too much is polished, so it's not too dressy and not too casual either. I think it's a perfect blend of both.  I am a little concerned about the polished parts (in the middle of the band, sides of the case and the sides of the band) getting scratched, but we'll see.  It's still new for me and I haven't bumped it too much...yet.  One of my Citizen watches has a good amount of polished parts on the band and around the case; after a few years of wearing it, it got pretty scuffed up and got it polished out, but it cost me a small fortune to get it polished. Should've saved my money and bought a new watch instead, so now I don't wear that watch much anymore because of that.  One of the last things that pushed me to pull the trigger, was that my dad wore a Seiko for YEARS.  So I was comfortable knowing that this watch should last a long time.
