Rating: 5/5

Review:
A very good watch

This watch was kindly sent to me for review and I think it is very good. It is a good quality product and it looks very classy.

The watch comes in a very nice, hinged presentation box with a manual and a little presentation bag, which would make it a very nice present. (There's also, rather bizarrely, a little pink hair-clip included as a "gift.") First impressions of the watch are excellent. It has a large face, 4cm in diameter (about 1.5 inches) and the dial looks great: it is black with simple gold markings and hands, which gives it a nice slightly late-60s feel to me, with a good clear day and date display. (you can have the days in English or French, by the way.)

The watch is reasonably chunky, but the thickness is nicely in proportion. The band is good quality, textured leather with a discreet logo on the buckle to match the watch. The whole thing looks really good, I think, and I would be happy to wear this with formal dress as well as liking it very much for everyday wear.

Functionally, it's very good. It keeps very good time, is shockproof and scratch resistant, and it is rated as water resistant up to 30 metres depth. I can't vouch for this and it's plainly not intended for submersion, but it's good to know that it will stand up well to the sort of knocks and wettings it might get in normal use. It just feels like a solidly made, durable watch. If I have any problems with durability I will update this review, but I'm not expecting any.

In summary, this is an elegant, classy watch which seems very well made and durable. I like it very much and can recommend it warmly.
