I have been looking for an automatic watch which is both beautiful and well-made for quite a while now. I have finally found that watch. I love the gold and black combination. The gold numbers on a black background make the numbers readable, which is hard to find in many watches. The position of the crown makes it very easy to wind the watch while wearing. However, I only have to wind it to set the time. The watch charges as soon as I pick it up, no winding or shaking necessary! These colors also go with anything so I can wear my watch everyday. I purchased this watch two weeks ago; it arrived on time and in the most amazing packaging. I definitely felt like I got my money's worth.
