Customer Review: Sharp Watch

I love this watch. I was looking at $300-400 Citizen and Seiko watches when I remembered the movie "Stranger Than Fiction". The only down side is the watch is a little heavy and the analog hands are not meshed with the digital time. You have to set them separately.

Customer Review: Excellent...if you're not expecting a replica of the one in the movie

I got this watch over a year ago, and it is the only watch I have consistently worn during the winter and summer months alike. I truly love that it is both sturdy and functional, while maintaining a polished and dressy look at the same time. I'll reiterate the same points others have said. When you turn the dial to change the analog time, it is not synced up to change the digital. On top of that, there are separate batteries, so while my analog arms are dead, the digital is still running. That's a disappointment, and I can understand that at the price point that may not be possible, but I have to believe for a higher price point it would be easily syncable. I would pay as much as $120 for the ability to sync and a better, more vibrant backlight. The backlight is terrible. Didn't find many problems with the alarm other than it is a little bit confusing to set, but once you figure it out, it's fine. It's just an average watch alarm. Aside from the movie comparisons, though, this is by far the best watch I've ever owned, and has already more than paid for it's $60 price point (now it's $50). The fuctions abound, from chrono stopwatch, to lap counter, to giving you the day of the week, month and day, and AM/PM. I think my favorite function is that you can hold down the top right hand button for a few seconds to make the digital time disappear and just show the analog. I prefer the digital, but when I want it to look a little more dressy and classic, I can easily convert it. This is a very well made watch for the money, and a purchase you can't go wrong with. Just don't expect the watch you saw in the movie, and you'll be fine.
