I bought this watch several years ago for quite a bit more than it costs now (about 133% of current price), but then, the drive was brand new at that time. The kinetic drive has become more common now, so you benefit from the price improvement.

The watch is very stylish and looks sharp with any work/dress outfit. It may not be a Tag or Breitling, but then, it doesn't cost as much either - yet it still stands out. When charged, the watch is very accurate and hasn't ever had any problems. The crystal hasn't ever scratched and the same glass covers the backside - which means you can see the kinetic charging mechanism. The little colored semi-circle markings are to show you how much charge it has remaining. The hands and times show up fairly well in the dark.


The watch is on the heavy side, and it's not thin by any stretch. It also loses it's charge fairly quickly, so unless you have a stand that rotates the watch while you aren't wearing it, you'll have to charge it by hand. I'd say 1 week is about what it holds, but that is supposed to be 2, so the battery may be losing its strength over the years. Thankfully it charges pretty quickly with normal use. It doesn't have a light.

It is built very well and feels solid on your arm. I think it's attractive and I've used it without any issues for 5+ years.

I've had the ladies version of this watch for the last several years. The crystal has never scratched, even while I've put it through home restoration or other dirty, impact-prone jobs. It still keeps impeccably good time and looks appropriate with almost any outfit, business or casual. I'd highly recommend this product -- if you're like me and hard on watches, this one is worth every penny.

IT WAS A GOOD EXPERIENCE, WATCH IS VERY NICE AND ARRIVED PROMPTLY. I HAD NO PROBLEMS

it is the most beutifull design and practical watch i have ever seen,i already have this watch in gold color and i am thinking to buy in black dial and tow tone bracelet.

My wife bought me this watch for my birthday about 6-7 years ago and I love it. I wear it most everyday and it keeps great time. Mine has also took a lot of abuse. I wear it at work which can be hard on it... has had several bad impacts with metal and no cracks ... the 1st time or 2 I looked with horror thinking it would be broken but now if it gets smacked I don't even look because I truly think nothing of it anymore. It has been really durable. it was worth every penny in my book. At first I didn't wear it to work due to it is my nicest watch but then it would be " low charged" when I put it on finally after thinking it would ruin the Kinetic parts I started wearing it a lot. I took a few days on the production line(work) to get back to full charge but now ... no problem with keeping it charged.

Let me start by saying this is a great watch but I gave it two stars because it did not hold a charge like it was supposed to. The manual said 250 swings of the arm should be enough to charge it up to last 1 day but I wore it two days in a row and the watch stopped each time over night. I bought this same watch 15 years ago and it was recently stolen from the gym. I looked around at other watches but always came back to this one. Amazon is great and the watch was delivered on time. Unfortunately Watch Grabber (the actual seller) sent me a dud.

This is a great watch. It lasted 8 years without any problems - no batteries, kept the correct time and looked good. It stopped functioning a couple of months ago and I haven't been able to find a replacement that I like. It's difficult, but it's time to move on.
