Summary : Wind-up Watch
A good buy. This watch was a Christmas gift for my husband who insists on a wind-up watch - which is not that easy to find these days. I was a bit hesitant since I could not see or touch the item. Also it is quite inexpensive so I thought it might be a cheap piece of junk. Happily, my husband loves it, it keeps good time, seems to be of good quality and it's not a bad looking man's watch. It is very basic and unadorned, it has a regular 12 hour face and also military.

I would recommend this item if your are lokking for a durable wind-up watch.

Summary : The watch I looked for for ten years
Here's what this watch has that I like:
1. You have to wind it. The self-wind watches just sit on my dresser and stop.
2. It's easy to read. Even from a distance.
3. It's accurate. I'm guessing it's off by no more than 30 seconds a week.
4. The band is comfortable in cold weather and hot weather.
5. It's reasonably waterproof -- OK, not for scuba diving but OK if you forgot and wore it into the shower.
6. It lasts long -- my first one lasted 8 years until the winder broke and a new replacement cost me less than the repair at a watchmaker.
7. I have Rolexes, IWC's, Movados, but THIS is the watch that I use.

Summary : Excellent purchase for its price
This is a hand-wind watch. It is rare to find a wrist watch with this mechanism that is not an antique. The nylon band absorbed a lot of water during a morning run. Othewise, it is a good fit. The arms, especially the second hand is easily visable for those of use with failing eyesight.

Based on a limited measurement, 3 points, the watch is running fast by an average of 39 seconds per week (2 min. 36 seconds per month). The students t for a 95% confidence interval is 68 seconds maximum and 10 seconds minimum. All of these values are positive. The watch runs fast. This is an error which is probably unusual for those familar with quartz technology (+/- 2-4 seconds per month)

All in all, this is an excellent watch for working outside, hunting, even running.

The next tests will be time to unwind. It is performed by winding the watch, carefully, to maximum and then allowing it to wind down. With one sample point: 51 hours to unwind from maximum at 74 F.

If this review was helpful, please add your vote.

Thanks.

PS:
For accurate time-keeping, wind the watch in the morning and at night. Otherwise, it will lose time if wound once a day.

After 18 months of use the nylon band is wearing at the edges. Otherwise, as time piece the watch works well.
