4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Watch April 7, 2012

This watch is a reissue of a Braun watch from the 70s. I'm not sure if they updated it a bit or went for a strait reissue. The designer, Dieter Rams, was idolized by Steve Jobs, and you'll find that many of his design conventions are integrated in Apple products. Even this watch, with its thick sides and minimal color scheme looks like it was made by the same person who designed the iphone 4/4s.

As far as the watch goes, it is extremely easy to tell the time. I'm one of those people who still might occasionally struggle with non-digital clock/watch, but not with this one. I've received enough compliments on the timepiece to assume it makes an impression. My only complaint is that I can't find an ideal wristband size... it is either way too tight, or loose enough that the watch face will slide toward the side of my wrist.

One last note, the seller was extremely attentive in helping track down the shipment when the shipping company had a problem. Great customer service!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully Simple January 6, 2012

I purchased this as a gift for my husband you says, "Beautifully simple and "just enough" design, just as you would expect from a Dieter Rams classic. Actually easier to read the exact time at a glance than my much more expensive Tag Heuer."

4.0 out of 5 stars Reliable and Easy on the Eyes January 20, 2013

By Brad

I look for four essential things in a wrist watch - a traditional face with hands (not LED numerals), sufficiently sized marks and lettering so it is readable in a split-second glance, non-metallic band, and consistent reliability. I've used Braun watches in past and was always happy with them. This watch meets all my requirements, plus it is thin and light with a secure leather band. I like the traditional face in black which makes it easy to read in any light and, of course, preserves the use of "clockwise" and "counter-clockwise" in the vocabulary! I nice addition would be a date window, but I can live without it. Iv'e had it for almost a year with no time resets.

Product Description

After a hiatus of many years, Braun watches and clocks are back in production in 2011 Braun's decision to re-issue their collection, including some of the rare LCD watches from the 1970's, gained approval from Dietrich Lubs, co-designer with Dieter Rams. Lubs credits their independent and functionally-oriented design for the continued relevance of the Braun timepiece collections, some thirty years after their introduction. Eventually, there will be production for the complete line of Braun watches and clocks, as well as new, exciting and innovative Braun products. The reappearance of Braun's complete wristwatch is a testament to the genius of the designers, and it hints at the numbers of loyal Dieter Rams adn Dietrich Lubs fans around the world.
