I purchased this watch for my wife for Valentine's day and she loved it. It was even prettier than it looked online. She loves the fact that it is an automatic and never needs a battery. This was the perfect gift for my wife who has everything.

This is a beautiful watch. Received quickly. Fair price. It's a little large for a ladies watch.

I love the size of the watch for my wrist, although if you have a dainty wrist it might be a bit too much for you, and the case is a little on the thick side. The case color is a beautiful Ion plated dark copper. The croc leather strap is a good color match and of nice quality. The crystals around the face are not too sparkly (which is an advantage, because the watch doesn't look cheap). The inside bezel is a dark brown, almost black (not sure if it's mother of pearl as described, it looks more like a paint finish). The AK logo is not too visible as I was afraid it might stand out on the glass, but it doesn't - thankfully. My only reason for giving it 4 stars is that a full winding lasts about 12 hrs or less, so if you're not wearing it/ shaking it constantly, it stops. No big deal for me, as I can always set it again looking at my cell phone time, but keep in mind that a quality automatic watch like Seiko should last about 3 days on its own by comparison.

This watch looks perfect, it was a gift for my friend. My only problem was that it took more then 1 month to receive it but the watch is just perfect.

Don't get me wrong, this is a beautiful watch! It has a large face with plenty of crystals which makes it stand out from all the rest. The band is a brown crocodile type leather of superior quality. I contemplated purchasing at the regular price of $195 rom Macy's but didn't. I then saw it a few months later on Overstock for less than half the original cost and immediately purchased it. I didn't receive it for a few months due to my local post office but that's another story. Upon receiving the watch, I wore it a few times to the office and received multiple compliments on a daily basis. After maybe 5 wears over a two week time period, I noticed one of the crystals had come loose on the face and was floating freely. No biggie! But then, after another wear, I noticed one of those beautiful brown crystals missing from the exterior. I stopped wearing it, afraid someone else would notice the same. On a casual Friday a few weeks later I decided to throw it on with a pair of jeans considering hardly anyone would be in the office (limited interaction), well by the end of the day, another brown crystal was missing from the exterior AND, the second hand from the dial was now floating around the inside with the first crystal. No way I can wear this thing again. It is a beautiful watch and surely mine must have come from a bad batch, considering i've never had such subquality workmanship on any of my other AK watches. I do think this watch is much more fragile and not built as solid as the others though and less likely to recommend anyone else to purchase it for more than 2 or 3 wears..

I already have one AK automatic watch that I paid full price for a couple of years ago and just love it, so when I saw this one and the price I didn't hesitate to order it. If it is not worn pretty much every day it does stop running, but I have a number of watches and would rather reset this than keep buying new batteries. It is also a big watch so may not be that great for a small person. But it is beautiful and I plan on keep watching for more AK automatics to buy.
