50s Style and technology

I really love the idea of this watch. It has a Swiss Sellita manual movement, the dial is unique and styling is classic but updated in size for modern tastes. It wears really well and gets lots of compliments. It runs well, and keeps great time. However, it's not perfect and I knocked a star off because of three things. #1 the movement is definitely manual, the website isn't super clear, but it is marked on the base of the watch dial that it is a Manual movement. I had some confusion on if it was an Automatic or manual based on the website wording. At this price point and since it is a modern take, it should have been an Automatic. #2, the dial does NOT have the texture visibility shown in the pictures...sort of. It does show the beautiful dial in full sun, but indoors, it's only really visible at certain angles and only when you are really looking for it. It's still a nice color gray and looks amazing, but it does NOT pop like the pictures show. And #3, the watch band is unnecessarily skinny. It's already an 18mm band but it really tapers down quite a bit and that's just not apparent from the pictures. It looks ok, when all i said and done, but it does look a bit feminine. In the end, this is a beautiful time piece and a great addition to any collection, just be aware of what you are getting.
