No battery technology, water resistant, titanium material, three hands, date and quality made me a believer in this brand of watch.
It looks good on my wrist and keeps time. My brother owns one, which I purchased as a gift about 3 years ago. He was tired of changing batteries. So I bought one when my Skagen was no longer dust proof.
I purchased this watch because my original one couldn't be fixed. It had been an anniversary gift from my wife several years ago. I found out the model has been discontinued. I really like the new one. It's a simple straight forward watch that gives me the time and date, and looks nice which is all I need. The first was a chronograph style and had 4 buttons to access the various functions. I very seldom used them.
Best watch I ever owned. Would highly recommend it.
