4.0 out of 5 stars Nice one, March 2, 2009

This is simply a nice watch. Its a multi-functional watch with moon phase, which is the specialty of this watch. I could have given 5 out of 5 star, but there is some wrong information in product description. Such as, its not a rose gold watch rather stainless steel with rose gold toned. Next, dial is not 42mm but 38-39mm. Last but not the least, its can't worth $1060 rather $400-500.
Still its really really a nice watch & could be a good time piece.

I received my watch and I felt it was a very unique style. The oval shape is quite different from any watches I have seen. I have only one complaint. These watches were made in China, the company goes to great lengths to make you believe there Swiss made. They do have a Swiss quartz movement & thats it. A little honesty in there ads would be nice.

This review is from: Stuhrling Original Men's '173L.3345E2 Special Reserve 'Aviator Calendar' Swiss Quartz Watch (Watch)

I must say I was exceedingly curious to see this watch, considering the numerous negative reviews it has earned. However, I found it to be a perfectly fine watch considering its price. The word "cheap" in English has, among other meanings, those of "inexpensive" and "shoddily made". This is an inexpensive watch considering the quality/price ratio, but definitely not shoddily made. The movement is Swiss, unlike many in the Stührling line which are Chinese made. The rose gold colored stainless steel case is very well executed, as is the dial. However, the sub-dials are hard to read, and in poor lighting become an ornament rather than a functional addition. The double clasp may be slightly cumbersome to handle for those not familiar with this mechanism, but an excellent video explaining how to use it is easily available at the Stührling blog -my watch came without written instructions on how to set a double clasp. Of course I cannot say anything about how this watch performs over time -I will have to use it for an extended period in order to objectively judge this. One final note: "rose gold" may be used as a noun or else as an adjective to describe color. It is beyond me how can anyone expect a watch under ten thousand dollars to be actually made of gold, even at 10 carats.
