Looks great but movement known to have issues

Great look and feature set. Myself and many others have issues with the F900 and F950 movements where the second hand (and sometimes others) will stop working multiple times a day and throw off the reference which makes them indicate incorrectly. The watch will detect at some point and run an auto hand correction to fix the reference. It's nice that the watch can correct itself but unfortunate that it has this problem in the first place and you can't trust that it is always indicating correctly. There appears to be nothing an individual can do to fix this issue. My watch is out of warranty so I will have to pay to have it fixed at the service center. The watch is a slate gray so I do not understand the other comment which seems to imply it is dark black. The pictures are very true to life on my monitor.
