Overall, I think this purchase turned out better than I expected. The dial face turned out to be a bit larger than I thought but in retrospect that was for the better since my eyes are getting older and the larger numbers are easier to see. The white numbers against the black face give very good contrast. It also helps that the #12 and #6 digits are slightly larger than the other numbers. I wish the calendar feature was larger as one has to bring the watch close to the eyes to view them clearly. Or had black numbers on a white background instead of the converse for better contrast like one of the other Eco Drives I have. Just be aware that the wrist band might be an issue if your wrist is too small. Otherwise I had no issues wearing it so far. I have liked the Eco Drive ever since I no longer have to replace watch batteries or remember trying to keep a mechanical drive wound up from non-use. Just have to keep it near a light source.
I love the face. The band ? Not so much. The holes are either too tight or bit tight enough. Clasp would be better. At least for me.
The watch is working well. No problems at all. I set the time and date.
