The watch seems to keep time OK, and I'm not surprised to have to pay another $10 to have the band resized. But it came as a shock that there's no way to light up the dial and the hands don't seem to hold any sort of luminescence like old style watches. I can't read it in the dark, which is a serious downside.

After multiple attempts to set the time (in two places) and the date, the watch failed to keep time; i.e., the hands never moved. I took it to a jeweler and he told me it was a bad unit and to return it. Now I have had to send it back and, so far, still don't know the status of my purchase and my account has not yet been credited for it. I thought the price of the watch was very reasonable, but I'd rather pay a little more and get one that works.

This watch is very heavy. The band required a professional jeweler to resize. The owners booklet is very short and poorly written. If the alarm works I can not hear it, and it apparently must be reset every 12 hours so is worthless for my use. A friend got a watch with a great alarm system at Radio Shack for under $30.Also I believe the amount charged was too much. I am NOT HAPPY!
