No need to push the button and open the clear cover to read the time. Clear cover magnifies the watch face and doubles as a magnifying glass. The watch face is off white. The watch face glows green in the dark. Although the product description shows that the watch is waterproof, the 2 pages of instructions say that you should not immerse in water. The watch has auto-winding capability, but if you are not a practicing gymnast, the watch will not wind sufficiently in your pocket or bag.
This is a beautiful thing to behold inside and out. The watch case metal looks like carved antique brass and the naked moving mechanical mechanism is viewable from the front and rear. Looking inside, you are treated to gold and chrome plated parts along with blue screws and red jewels. I even see the mainspring through the front glass.
Unboxing, you will find a small clear “Made in China” sticker on the back glass. Carefully remove it, do not scratch the glass. You can use Use Ronson lighter fluid to remove the stubborn glue left on the glass. I think it feels smooth like glass and not plastic to me.
I set this using a solar atomic clock, comparing time accuracy during the day and night. Very accurate for an inexpensive mechanical watch. This is so inexpensive, I purchased another one of these the very next day. Don’t let my wife know. The new one appears to be just a touch faster than the first one. Still, as accurate or better than other mechanical watches I use.
The watch is pleasingly thick from front to back, with a good solid heft. It fits comfortably in the small pocket in Levi and Lands End jeans. Note: I have not yet tested what will happen if you sit for hours with this in you tight or loose jeans. I hope I don’t crush it. The chain matches the watch case color and metal.
This is a mechanical watch with a mainspring, [DO NOT over wind. You could harm the mechanism.] When you feel resistance, stop winding.
RECOMMENDATIONS –
o If you use it occasionally:
WIND watch stem in the morning up to 20 times (limited). Watch will run accurately all waking hours.
o If you use it daily for a week or more:
WIND watch stem every morning up to 20 times (limited). WIND AGAIN before retiring for the night. Watch will run accurately throughout the night and into the morning. REPEAT for all days.
Everyone tells time with their cell phone, so nobody will ask you what time it is. It is much, much cooler and sophisticated to carry this with you and use it proudly.

Pros:
Seems to keep time well. (EDIT: Consistently gains 1-2 minutes per day. Inquiring to find out if there’s a way to prevent this. Further edit: no response from seller.)
Looks pretty cool.
Winding/movement-based timekeeping and magnifying lens are really handy for outdoor/survival situations.
Cons:
Glowing dial charges quickly, but doesn’t last long. Don’t expect to use this in the middle of the night without light.
Chain keeps kinking up.
Slight misalignment of cover, off by a couple millimeters, easily fixed.
Neutral/untested:
Slightly weighty, which is kind of nice, but some might not like it.
Haven’t tested the water resistance, but it seems like it would be.
Edit: after getting it professionally calibrated, it keeps good time.

I don’t find anything to dislike of the watch itself, and time will tell how it performs. The paperwork is confusing. If the manufacturer can explain the warranty card to me, as far as “Reference” and “Trademark
Stamp and Signature”. I don’t know what they want in those spaces.
Thanks much if anyone knows.

The watch is great but I should have read the reviews about needing to be gymnast in order for the self winding to work. I gave the watch to my daughter as prop for her Steampunkt thing.

EXCELLENT TIME KEEPER, REALLY GOOD WEIGHT IN THE HAND, VERY CLEAR AND EASY TO READ.
I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THIS WATCH.

Purchased for my son for his pre-wedding gift. Came with nice black velvet bag.
Looks good.
– Gene Lubbers
Was a very nice looking watch, like the large numbers to read time easily. After a few months, will not wind anymore, also recently cannot keep time, looses about 10 minutes daily. Will not buy another!

Bonjour produit qui ne fonctionne plus. Ya til une garantie que faire ?c’était un cadeau que j avez fait livré et la elle ne fonctionne plus.
– Krissy Sharp
Love the watch, but the first one had loose parts in the back just floating around.
– Patricia Evans
This is a self winding watch, however, even though it’s worn everyday, it stops running several times! Very frustrating. I’m very disappointed as this was a gift for our anniversary.

bought it for a friend, he is very happy with it
