The watch looks better in person than in the images. The watch keeps very good time and the mechanical movement is a wonder to watch. Overall the watch has a beautiful design and everything from the case to the leather strap is very high quality. That said, I wish I had not purchased the watch as the reserve power is just a few hours. It is frustrating to wear the watch all day and then have to set the time every morning. It will only keep time for a few (3~5) hours at best if you are not wearing it. If you are willing to accept this limitation, then it is a solid purchase especially with a discount code. If not, stay away.

Very attractive in person, a unique look. My first watch with an open heart, pleasant to view. The wife took an immediate liking to the watch. I had to buy a smaller strap so she could wear it—the strap that comes with the watch is on the long side, and she has a tiny wrist. The movement is quite accurate, gaining 17 seconds in 12 days. Seems to gain more time when left off the wrist overnight, only gains 0-1 second/day when left on the wrist while sleeping. I appreciate the moderate size case; the case thickness adds presence without being overly chunky. Good value for the money.
