This watch is great looking, very durable feeling and looks a lot more expensive than the price tag. The face is a very, very dark blue and looks really sharp. Easy to program. Combines a dressy watch with the simplicity of a digital display.

Sure, it's made in China, but it's a good looking and very capable timepiece for $67. Some things I didn't know until I bought it: 1) The watch has two batteries - one larger SR41W for the quartz oscillator/digital display/light and a smaller SR626SW battery for the analog hand movement - as mentioned in an earlier review, mine came with a dead SR626SW and therefore frozen hands, $3 for an new battery did the trick (note: frozen hands may mean a dead battery, rather than broken watch), 2) the alarm isn't all that loud, but it is piercing and does wake me up, 3) Both the luminescent hands and the digital display light are just barely legible in the dark, 4) The watch is large, but nicely shaped and sits comfortably on the wrist, 5) the strap look fine but feels #and sounds) like a $67 watch strap.

This is a super watch. It looks great. It has the functions that I was looking for (analog time with simultaneous digital day of the week, day of the month, month and year) along with other functions. The band is very flexible and comfortable, with easy on/off via two side buttons on the clasp. Combine all that with a stainless steel case and band (no more plating wear through) and you have a real winner! The only minor drawback is the relatively large size and heavy weight.

This was a present for my grandson for Christmas. We went to several jewerery stores but could not find what we wanted.This was what he was looking for and the price was ok. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was the band. If it had a streach band instead of the braclet band it would have been better. He has a small wrist and it couldn't be taken up enough for him. One link was too large and the next link was too small. Guess he will have to grow some more.

This watch is beautiful. It met all my husband's needs. However...it stopped working shortly after we received it. After reading reviews, we replaced the battery. It ran perfectly for almost two months. At that point it quit and we were past the return period. I wrote to Amazon and they took the watch back and returned my money. I truly believe that Amazon is always willing to deliver on customer service. I would rather purchase through them than any other company.

Pulsar name, Seiko guts for $40! The price on this watch has dropped substantially in the last 60 days (as of 4/6/11). It's a great deal. I needed a fashionable dual time watch and this fits the bill perfectly. The band is easy to size - just search on "adjusting Pulsar watch band" to find directions.

The watch worked well, right from receipt, keeps excellent time, both digital and analog are within 3 seconds, after 2 months, and I'm pleased with it.
But, unbelievably, you can't use the light when you're using the timer! So if you're running at dusk, or night, you can't check your running time.
This would have been a deal-breaker for me.
Additionally, it's not really a good watch to use as a timer while on the go - the hands obscure the timer, so you often can't read the whole timer display.

Apart from that, it's a good watch, I like it!

Looks nice, priced right and very functional. I have a Citizen dive watch that is too expensive for day to day use. Would have given this watch 5 stars but it was made in China not Japan. Not a big deal but wish Amazon would have stated this somewhere. Still it costs less and is nicer than the Casio's you could buy at Wally world.

I liked the looks, feel and funtions of this watch, would have given 5 start to the product, if it would not have stopped working. It happened twice that it's second hand stopped working (second time it came in non working condition). It was good that it was still in Amazon's replacement period and have got the third piece by now. It has been aroudn 20 days now and have not seen any issue yet. I like the watch itself and would recommend to any one who likes multifunction, metal watch and would wish best for it to keep working.

The first watch ran okay for about a day, then stopped. I was able to restart it and it lasted for about a week. It then stopped. The analog sweep second hand and hour hands could not be restarted. I returned the first one for a replacement.

The replacement did not run from the beginning and had the same problem of the sweep second hand and hour hands not moving.

I returned the second one for a refund.
