This watch came alive and ticking, with no need for a preliminary charge; adjustment was quick and easy. The solar feature is very convenient. There is just one very minor issue I have with how it works: You are not able to adjust the date between the hours of 9:00 PM and 1:00 AM. As a night owl, this is a minor inconvenience for me.

I have for years been a owner of Seiko watches. I have an older Seiko watch of this very design and style. Only it is the automatic type. So, in selecting a new watch, I choose this one. The solar with the blue dial. I was very impressed with it when I recieved it. Had a some what tough time getting the calendar and date set. But, I can up with a way of doing it that worked just great. It's been working perfect every since. And it keeps great time. It's a very attractive and eye catching. I love it because it isn't too thick and the crystal is flush with the body of the watch. I would highly recommend this watch to any one.

for $80 stuff, it has an elegant look, water resistent and precise time. It worth your dollar. I strongly recomemded.
