For the price, this is a really nice watch. I'm a big fan of Seiko watches and this is my second one, and my first automatic watch. It wears nicely on the wrist and you can hardly even notice that it's there. It is a little on the small side so people with big wrists, take notice. But onr thing I love about it is the sweeping second hand, it really adds to it and I love the calendar and date.

The reason why I'm giving this watch four stars is because of the calendar. I really wanted it to be in all English units and I could not find a review that said it was not. That being said, the calendar is bilingual and because I work night shift, the calendar switches over when I need to see it and unfortunately I can't read Spanish. But, I think that is a very small gripe all things considered because I know many watches with calendars do that and unless you want to spend big money you won't be able to find one with all English units.

I would absolutely consider picking one up for a gift, especially if the person on the receiving end likes watches
