I purchased this sleek looking watch while on a cruise in Nassau. I had my prescription sunglasses on in the store, so I thought that was the reason the watch seemed extra dark. When we arrived back at the ship and I wore my regular glasses, the dials were still extremely difficult to read indoors. Much to my dismay, the watch was challenging to read outside as well. I can only wear the watch in complete daylight. I would only use the watch as a daytime watch. The dials are not luminous in dark conditions, so don’t purchase it if you are looking for a do it all watch. This watch is just for outside on the brightest day.
Hard to read. He likes it, I would’ve returned it. All in personal preference I guess. It feels like quality, we’ll see!
I absolutely love this watch. Yeah, it’s black.. its supposed to be.. the blue accents I find set the deep black off perfectly. For my young generation eyes, I have zero problems seeing the dial. I could see it being difficult to read for someone that has lesser quality vision. I guess I don’t see why anyone would post anything negative about it. What you see is what you get, and I love it!

I receive a lot of compliments wearing it and I personally like the look because it can be worn in any situation. It also is all blacked out and does not have much contrast as others have mentioned but I do like that since it makes it look more cool and for me it is not hard to ever tell time with the watch.
