This watch looks and feels like very high quality.  The steel is well polished and the face is beautiful. The large numbers (all 12 of them) are very distinct and make it easy to tell the time.  Many watches have 4 numbers and then dashes, but this watch is unique with all twelve large numbers. It keeps time very well and could easily be your low maintenance everyday watch. Some people prefer a quartz watch like this because it only needs battery maintenance once per year, rather than having to reset the clock every time you let it sit for 3 days like most automatics. Taking away one star because i don't like day dates on my watches. I believe watches are show pieces like jewelry and I don't want to mess with dates every other month. My cell phone is my gadget device.
