Nice winding pocket watch that keeps very good time. Just remember to wind it twice a day. It goes well with my western attire. The chains that are included really add to the ways you can use this pocket watch. Fantastic watch for the money.

Quick delivery (free shipping option), the watch looks amazing, just like in the pictures*, do note that the watch uses a plastic cover (not glass) to protect the inner parts (like many other reviews have said).
The darker image is the untouched image, the other one is to show more details which my device couldn’t capture. The watch can be harder to read with low light (since the metallic surface is dark). The details on the cover and the back are really nice and detailed (especially for such a low price). So far, the time seems accurate and it only takes around 10 crown rotation for the watch to last for a whole day (to stay on the safe side I’ll never wind it more). Although the watch feels a bit fragile, it will definitely make for a beautiful (and functional) decoration if taken care of appropriately. The inclusion of 2 different chains is also a very useful bonus (the T-shaped end one is a bit thinner for those who would prefer a more subtle chain).
Strangely, pressing the crown tends to open the back panel more often then the front one (or does both with a harder press which is logical). Maybe it was meant to be the other way around?
* The “Black Blue” version was twice in the buying option (I took the one that cost 1 dollar less). So unless the first option offers cyan blue, I’d say the blue is more of a royal blue (but I’m still very happy with that colour).

Initial Review:
This is a very beautiful piece.
The case looks like gunmetal. The window and roman numerals on the front lets you see the time without even opening the case. So, a quick peek is easy.
The windows on both sides to the moving parts is really neat. I like the gold and blue contrast. There are even a few jewels on the back side.
The blue roman numerals on the black background is very masculine. However, they are very difficult to see due to the low contrast. The roman numerals stamped into the cover are actually easier to read.
Also, the blue hands can be difficult to spot against a background that has both gold and blue in it.
When opening the cover(s), you can certainly figure out what time it is within 3-7 seconds. You just have to let your eyes focus, find the clock hands, and then spot the roman numerals. With that said, I don’t buy a pocket watch for the purpose of quickly finding the time. If I wanted that, I’d wear a wrist watch (which I do). This watch is a piece of jewelry that completes a look, and it also happens to be functional. Anyway, when I’m checking the time on this very handsome watch, I want to hold it in my hand for a few seconds, so people nearby have more time to take it in. Let them see how cultured and sophisticated I am with my pocket watch. Be jealous. Be very jealous. Anyway, the window in the front cover allows you to get a quick peek at the time if that is what you want.
I will say that the cover and the chain seem to made out of a lightweight and cheap metal. They look really nice, but I wonder what time will tell. I’ll come back to update on that later. However, for this price, that is completely acceptable.
All of the clockwork parts that tell time seem to be made well. There is a very quiet tick tick sound (if I hold it to my ear), which I like. It is not loud at all, so don’t worry about that. I can see the parts moving through the windows, and I can also see how tightly the spring is wound, which should prevent me from over-winding. The instructions are to wind until you encounter resistance. Well, the resistance slowly increases as it gets tighter, so it is hard to tell when to stop. I error on the side of caution and stop winding sooner, and I can give it a couple turns throughout the day if I need to. Because I can actually see how tight it is 🙂
I’m a little concerned about the longevity of the cover latch. Just pressing the cover to snap it in might reduce the life expectancy. So, I try to press the cover release down, close the cover, and then release the cover release. That way, it isn’t snapping.
The time keeping seems to be quite accurate. I’ve had it running for about 10 hours now, and I have not noticed any drift at all. And this is side-by-side with a very accurate Seiko Automatic watch. If this observation changes over the next few days, I’ll update this. But so far, the timekeeping gets two thumbs up.
I took off one star for how difficult it is to tell the time, quickly. These are very simple and obvious observations that any clock designer should have considered. Don’t have the hands and the background be the same color. I would have liked all white or even red hands. Make sure your printing contrasts with its background. Gold roman numerals would have been nice.
But, in the end, you can’t beat what you’re getting for this price. This is a great “First Pocket Watch”. The design is unique and really handsome. I’ll wear it out with my designer jeans and t-shirt or button-up. For a suit, I’ll probably get a more classic style, and look in a higher price range. Although, this one can certainly pass with a suit, too. I think you’ll be quite pleased.
UPDATE:
I’ve now had this watch for about a week. The time-keeping is very accurate, when kept wound. Once the spring starts getting down toward the end, it slows down pretty bad. But, that only happened when I left it in the drawer for 36 hours. Otherwise, I’ve been able to wind it in the morning, and again before bed to keep it right on pace. Winding it this often is not necessary, but I don’t want to over-wind it and damage it. So, I’d rather wind it more often, but with fewer turns. When compared to my phone and PC (which are synced with Global time), this pocket watch stays right on. It is actually more accurate than my Seiko Automatic wrist watch.
I stand by my criticism of the lack of contracting colors. But also, that it is nice to have it in my hand for a few more seconds, anyway.
The opening in the front cover is nice, for quick time-telling. I keep my watch in my pants pocket, and I do notice lint/fuzz on the inside glass, because it gets in through that opening on the front cover. It’s not a big deal and wipes away easily.
I have not noticed any scratches or dents to anything. It is holding up well. I’m very pleased with this purchase.
Update 2 (it has been a couple months now):
Well, the inevitable happened, and I apparently over-wound it. I was winding it one morning and not paying close attention, when it suddenly stopped winding. So, the watch is still as accurate as before, but I noticed that it unwinds much more quickly than it used to. I’d say that I now have to wind it at least every 18-20 hours. If I don’t wind it after work, it is dead in the morning. But, if I keep it wound, it is still as true as ever and still in great shape. I wear it every day.

Beautiful pocket watch! Design is stunning, the ability to view its inner workings from both sides (when open) is captivating. My friend’s young son loves clocks, and I felt this would be an awesome surprise for him to be able to carry & care for his very own. It is lightweight, easily wound + surprisingly quiet when operating: the ticking is only apparent when held next to your ear. I really love how you can still tell time even when it’s closed. The push-open mechanism is a bit springy (not sure how it’ll hold up over time), yet it’s an incredible product overall at an affordable price.

I love pocket watches. I have seen a lot of them. This one is my all-time favorite. I love the chain open up front to back. I’m definitely going to cherish this pocket. Watch.

Loses 5 hours A DAY! For looks only!

Just what I was looking for – a gorgeous hand wound pocket watch that is easy to read. Most watches I looked at were too difficult to read either due to the skeletonized design or just poor color choices for the face and hands. Not only can I quickly and easily read this one, but with the revealed section on the cover, I can get a quick glance at the face while still closed. Really like the weight, design and fell of the watch and chain is not a cheap one, but very solid.

My nephew asked me for one for his birthday and I was very impressed by the quality and the beauty of this pocket watch. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is interested in this kind of fashion.

Die Taschenuhr sieht optisch sehr gut aus, allerdings klappert sie, die Plexiglasscheibe bewegt sich leicht und die Uhr ist Gold und die Kette Roségold. Warum kann ich nicht nachvollziehen, es passt auf jeden Fall nicht zusammen, daher geht sie wieder zurück.
– Dennis Schlarmann
Looks and feel of the watch is great. Unfortunately I’m sending mine back for a return as the minutes hand gets stuck on the Roman numerals and seconds hand. Which prevents it from keeping an accurate time or from being adjusted.

全てがそれなのか、この商品だけ不良品なのかは不明。配達も３日遅れで届いたし、返品も面倒なので此方で処分しますが…。
