I was instantly attracted! I
"I was instantly attracted! I love the dense complications and data on the face. The perpetual calendar is so clever, informative and elegant. The advancing date window at 6 o’clock moves reliably. The hands are precise and silent and the numerals and minute marks are easy to read. Luxurious, refined finishes and materials wrap it all together! Water resistance to 50 meters is more than adequate and I fearlessly wash my hands and do dishes while wearing it (I take it off to shower, etc). The size is great - I am a woman with fairly small wrists and I have it tightened down to the next-to-last hole on the band. The face is not too large on my wrist, but I do regularly wear men’s watches, as a fashion choice, so I am used to a larger watch. The case itself is quite low profile (beautiful mineral crystal!) and it is lightweight, not bulky. I did have trouble finding anyway to advance the moon phase window separate from the clock, so I moved it out by advancing the hands, then fine tuned it to the actual moon phase by pulling out the crown to stop time while the moon caught up. I should be right on time for the moon window to be top center for the full moon on Monday! Pursuing a plant-based lifestyle, I wish there had been an option for a metal or synthetic band instead of leather."
