5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect, February 28, 2010

This review is from: Rougois Hand Wind Decorated Skeleton Movement Watch RMS33S (Watch)

I have had this watch for about 2 weeks, and it is even better than I expected. So far, it has kept flawless time, and it is surprisingly easy to read the time for a watch with no numbers on the face. The internal movements are a little more intricate than you can see on the youtube videos of the watch working; there are at least 5 different visibly moving parts, though they're mostly concentrated in the upper-left part of the face. I continuously catch myself staring at it- people must think I'm pretty rude, the way I fixate on it.

It's a little bigger than I expected. This is fine for me, but it's certainly not a discreet watch. Don't get me wrong- it's not huge- but it is a full 44 millimeters across the face. That's about 1.75". It's also about a centimeter (0.4 inches) in height. Reviewers of other skeleton watches have commented on their noise and tend to describe them as loud. This watch is definitely audible in an otherwise silent room, but so far this hasn't been bothersome. I do, however, leave it on my desk when I go to bed. I was apprehensive of buying a wind-up watch, but it only takes about 2 seconds to wind this watch fully each day.

Finally, it's really cool. People sitting next to me will notice it and make me show it to them, and a few days ago a waiter complimented it. It is a very unique looking watch, which is enhanced by not having any numbers or distractions on the face. For this price range, it seems to be the best skeleton watch out there. I am strongly considering buying another one to keep as a backup, in case they ever stop selling them and something happens to mine.

I am a Radiologic Technologist and work with mostly ER and hospitalized patients. My coworkers are very positive with the appearance of the watch and are amazed at the intricacy of the works and how visible they are. I have already had a good comment from one of my ER patients and this is pretty cool considering that this was the first day that I have worn it!

The watch will be a nice conversation starter when I am getting a patient ready for an X-Ray exam since I can make a humorous statement about having a skeleton watch and taking X-Rays that show the inner beauty and workings of the human body. Making a patient feel more at ease is priceless and usually leads to much better and more diagnostically useful X-Ray images!

My only criticism about the watch is that the hour and minute hands have no glowing tips, yet the rotating second hand at the nine-o'clock position on the dial have glowing hands.
