Inertia is a powerful force. If you’ve never been a fan of the way stainless steel links look on your wrist, or you’ve never placed a premium on watches with automatic movements, it’ll take one hell of a watch to get you to change your mind on both fronts. This is one of the few watches under $200 that’s up to the challenge, and could very well make you leave your leather band, battery powered, old favorites in their case.
It’d be fair to call me a convert, and I’d never thought I’d get used to any watch with a metal band. It doesn’t look cheesy, it doesn’t look showy, and the automatic movement is a nice bonus.
You can’t wind it via the crowns, but instead to start/recharge it you hold it between your thumb and index finger (like you would a flashlight) and gently swing it from side to side. That’ll oscillate the weight which winds the spring. When fully wound it’ll go for about 40 hrs if stationary, and it seems to stay powered up easily if you live a moderately active lifestyle. Nothing quite like having a watch that you look forward to taking for a walk like you would a dog.
