Great watch,

This is a great watch - looks sharp and keeps perfect time. The only thing that I have a gripe with is that the glow in the dark hands are not that bright. That is minor, though. BTW - I got a great deal on this watch at the Seiko outlet in Massachusetts - $79.00.

BEWARE - must set alarm every 12 hours!!!!,

This is a great, stylish watch, but beware!! No where does it tell you that if you'd like to use the alarm, you have to reset it every 12 hours, and it is not possible to set it for further than 12 hours from the current time. Additionally, every time you set the alarm, the clock stops running, so they caution you to set your watch a few minutes ahead of time to account for the time you will lose while setting the alarm. Even more inconvenient, every time you go to reset the alarm, the hands of the alarm spin around to the current time and you have to reset. There is no way to just reactivate the alarm for the current time that it is set at.
Again, this is a wonderful watch that is very nice, but if you're looking for one to use an alarm for every day use, this is probably not the watch for you as it is very tedious.

Sharp looking, well functioning watch,

I've had this watch for over a year now, and I have no complaints. It looks great with almost anything and has a tough finish that doesn't scratch or scuff (the metal or the crystal). The blue face is understated but brilliant in the light.
The built-in timer and alarm functions are nice, although I rarely use them. I agree with the other review that the nite-glo hands are not that bright, though that's a minor issue.
All in all, a great watch.
