I wish it had a light ro see at night.
I just purchased this watch, and I'm very pleased with it. I work in an environment where I can't have Bluetooth devices, or Wi-Fi, so this passive watch is perfect. I really wanted a nice watch that had an alarm, and this was the only one I found with that feature of this style (the Seiko's don't have alarms, for example). I wanted a nice-looking analog watch with solar power, sapphire crystal, atomic timing, able to read at night, and an alarm. It's a tad busy, but it's nice looking. I like the muted black look. The sapphire crystal is great, and I love not worrying about scratches. Being a newbie, the thing I will never understand about luxury watches is why they don't have lights or electroluminescent screens. I was worried about the glow-in-the-dark hands on this watch. I will say they are MUCH better than the ones on my old Citizen Perpetual A-T World Time watch I got used on eBay. That one is useless after 15 minutes. This watch is much better, including being able to read it at 5am in a dark bedroom if I've left it in the sunlight the evening before. It's the in-between environments with a little light that are still a bit challenging, like movie theaters or music halls. But so far I've been able to read it. I do hear that the luminescence on these watches might be a weak point compared to a few other brands, I can't say it's true as I haven't been able to compare. Whatever they did, it's definitely an improvement over older models. I do still feel like I need to get a digital watch with an EL display for times when it's important. Why do luxury watches not do better in the dark?
Love the watch. Have owned it for over 4 years. Super light weight, titanium., and accuracy is phenomenal. Only gripe I have, is that it's hard to read the dial in low light situations.
Great watch but the face is busy and difficult to tell time in subdued light. I find myself usually wearing my Super Titanium more often. Still, love both watches!
