My BF loves it. No batteries, Eco-Drive runs correctly with no slowdown, no need to re-adjust other than daylight-savings time, easy to set, and easy to read day AND date, larger dial numerals, sturdy and attractive. Changed strap to a metal expandable, he didn't like fussing with the very stiff canvas strap that came with it. Excellent watch for the price. He looks at it often. The nicest watch ever he said. Highly recommend this and other Eco-drive watches.

Update 4 years: the watch is still running fine, sadly, it outlasted my beloved companion.
