Final Boss of Watches
This is the final boss of watches. I've purchased several Eco-Drive watches over the years and love them all for different occasions. I also have a small collection from other brands that I've picked up along the way. But every other watch I own has the same fatal flaw: Is the time actually right when I put it on? Even the best battery-powered watches eventually need a new battery. My self-winding watches are usually only right twice a day after they've been sitting for a while. My other Eco-Drives are chronically out of date, at least every other month. That's why I absolutely love pairing Eco-Drive technology with radio-controlled automatic time setting. It basically eliminates both problems. No battery changes and no resetting the time. In fact, this has become the watch I use to make sure every other watch is correct before I put it on my wrist. I've only had it for a short while, so we'll see how it holds up. I may choose a different watch day to day depending on the occasion, but I'm still using this one every morning to keep all the others, and me, on time. My only negative so far is the bracelet. It's significantly lighter than the bands on my other watches and has a tendency to be a little squeaky. Unfortunately, that makes an otherwise excellent watch sound cheaper than it is. We'll see how the bracelet holds up to daily use, but for now it's the one part of the watch that doesn't quite live up to the rest.
