It started couple of years back as something small, and now I have have a huge amount. Lately, I have been looking for a skeletonized watch because my collection doesn't have much. I decided to come on Amazon to do a quick view of what skeleton watches they had in stock. Luckily for me, I came across this watch being offered on sale. Now, Sthurling is a very reputable company and has a great warranty program. Knowing that, I purchased this watch without thinking twice. I must admit, from the pictures presented I was not very impressed but for the price, I really didn't think of it much. When I received the watch and opened the package, it would be an understatement to say that I was astonished. As you can see from my video, the craftsmanship and detail put behind this watch is actually very admirable. Now on to more specific details. I will be setting up the review in different categories to focus on different aspects separately, so you can decide if it is the right watch for you.

Body - The body of the watch is crafted from pure stainless steel, and it has a very polished finish which gives it a very reflective look. The case is 40mm and 10-11mm in thickness. If your not so sure about the sizing in mm, the face is about the average size and it consists of a slim profile. The hands of the watch are dark/light blue depending on how much light is being exposed onto it. Around the dial is a black border with little dots, which represent the hours and minutes, making it easier for a person to tell the time even if it is a see through dial. Overall great presentation and I am quiet impressed.

Movement - The movement of the watch is a Mechanical/Wind-up movement. It does not run on battery power but rather it is a very small spring loaded mechanism that keeps accurate time by slowly releasing energy and moving the gears of the movement. This energy is stored by the person winding the watch everyday or other day by turning the crown upwards about 15-20 times. Winding the watch takes about 10 seconds and the movements last for a long time. I have some wind up watches that I have owned for about 2 years and they still perform great. This movement is backed by a 2 year guarantee from Sthurling, so you can purchase this product with a safety net to fall on just incase anything was to happen.

Strap - The beautiful aspect of this product is that, when purchased Sthurling provides you with two sets of genuine leather strap. One of them is black which comes installed, and the other one is dark brown, which is provided seperately. The lenght is about 7.5-8 inches, which is average or also known as Men's standard size. The strap has alligator skin pattern carved on it, giving it a classic and elegant look. The strap does not come broken in, so at first it might be uncomfortable but overtime it becomes very comfy and a pleasure to wear.

After all is said and done, this is an amazing watch. For the price and the quality we are being offered, this is an absolute steal. It is one of those rare products that I always receive compliments on and it slowly became one of my favorite watches. I loved my first purchase so much, I decided to purchase a second one to give to my brother as a gift. The movement is absolutely mesmerizing and always a fun to look at. I am very happy with this product and I truly believe this is worth investing for. Hopefully I helped! Let me know if you have anymore question or comments.

*Additional Information*
The warranty process is not like the usual. Sthurling provides you with a proof of purchase card and a little paper which you need to fill out with basic information and mail to them in order to activate the warranty. It does not cover physical damage nor cracks on the dial window. However, if anything happens to your movement, they will replace it for free.
