I love the way this watch looks, which is why I bought it. It's works in both casual and dressy settings.

However, the "automatic" feature does not have enough depth. If I skip wearing it even one day, it will have lost several hours and I'll have to to reset the time. Other than this annoyance, I really like this watch.

Overall a really nice watch for 100 bucks and an automatic skeleton to boot as well. The only thing I notice about this watch that I have a small complaint about is the right have of the seconds from 12 to 6 the second hand is somewhat choppy and not smooth like it is from 6 to 12. Other than that the watch seems to keep good time, but keep in mind that automatics are never as accurate as a quartz watch. I'm giving this product 4 stars out of 5. I highly recommend it as a starter automatic as generally these watches get up there into the thousands.

I am very pleased with this purchase as it isn't exactly easy to find a modest yet good-looking automatic watch under $100 (Got mine for $86). The hands can be easily distinguished from the background, so it's quite easy to read at a glance. However, just as the other reviews have already stated, the second hand is indeed rather choppy, although it keeps time just fine. But hey, those watches with really smooth sweeping hands easily costs two or three times more.

Great automatic watch for starters!

I am pleased with this timepiece and have been for over 3 years. The automatic movement is ok as I do not wear the watch often and requires setting the time before use. The watch is simple and easy to read with the skeleton face displayed in with a window effect. The rose gold and leather band blend nicely. The construction is solid for daily office work. The exhibition case back is also nice to admire when putting on or taking off the watch. Check out the uploaded video on youtube.com of this watch. Search under it's model number KC1549.

I purchased this watch for $112 and I have been extremely pleased with it. It is the best value for an dressy, automatic watch. Nothing on it reflects its pricetag.

Got this watch as a birthday present and I was a little disappointed at first. I had been raving about automatic watches and how I wanted one and had even bought an Invicta coin edge bezel automatic diver on Amazon (Japanese Miyota mvt) but was sorely disillusioned when it stopped running after only a few days and would not start again. I thought the chinese movement in the KC would fare even worse, but so far it is keeping good time and running smoothly. The second hand is a little jumpy, but it is acceptable. Looks-wise, this watch is a real winner and the rose gold finish is amazing with the brown croc strap. Goes great with earth tones. The hands are also rose gold toned and they are big and bold on the skeleton face. I was unsure about that, as I generally think they are a bit flashy, but I love being able to look through the face at the little gears turning through both the front and the exhibition caseback. So far, this watch has the Invicta beat! Don't hesitate to buy this watch.

When I first got this watch I loved it. But know after a year the second hand skips at the two through the six hour, then returns to normal opertation. I dont wear it much now as I am afraid I will damage it. I would not buy this watch again.
