As an old retired guy, I actually use a watch for time-keeping [rather than my smart-phone].  Initially choose this Seiko SNK809 because it has the appearance of the old "issue" [issued to military personnel] mechanical watches [wind up, I think] that we were given when we first entered the military in the 1960s.  Those watches had green cloth bands, if I recall.

I like the large "minutes" numbers on the outside ring [useful for celestial navigation, not that anyone "shoots cel" much any more], and the "hours" numbers on the smaller, inside ring.  The day/date is convenient [first watch I've had in a while that has the "day"], and the smooth sweep of the "seconds" hand is very nice.  Luminosity is good; it'll fade during the evening hours, but by then we older retired folks are asleep.

Sizing:  my wrist circumference is just shy of 8 inches, and I'm at the second-to-the-last adjustment hole on the band [moderately loose fit].  I have ordered one of those NATO military straps [even though I worked with NATO in the 1980s I don't recall these watch straps at all; perhaps they're new?].

All in all, a nice mechanical [movement is "made in Malaysia"] watch, reminiscent of the old days [like old timers like me].
