I took almost a year before leaving this assessment. I bought it because I wanted to watch "vacation", ie a watch that is put and forget, in the mountains, in the sand, water etc. Amateur automatic watches and precise watches, this is the first time I bought a quartz watch is recharged by solar energy, in order to ensure that the seal would last as long as possible (no Opening the bottom to change the batteries). The watch is beautiful, exudes solidity. I have not worn for a long time but during all the holidays it known to the beach, sea water all day, a few meters deep, the shower and daily cleaning, dust etc. A few hours of sun are enough to it to warm up and then take on the task for several weeks. Wear it there a few days, she can then spend several months in a drawer and always be on time! Finally it is very precise properly (1 minute ahead in 6 months). The bracelet is awful and unwearable (except for those who make diving) but a NATO bracelet is a great alternative because it alleviates wrist watch. Only small problem: the dial is a bit small. He already gives this impression compared to the size of the watch (the box "than" a little, is prominent side crown (winder), so the dial seems small compared to the overall size of the watch, it is a " optical effect "). More minutes are on a kind of curved ring and not on a flat bottom. The dial is therefore flat as central to the luminescent markers, which is quite reduced. The outcome and equal size on paper, the difference is significant in my opinion compared with SEIKO or CITIZEN. After ... it's a matter of taste.
