I purchased this watch in November, and decided to wait for a few months before I wrote a review, to make sure it held up okay. I own five watches and this is my favorite. The design is very intriguing and fun to watch it move. It is a bit heavy, but that makes it feel solid. It has kept perfect time for me and I only need to wind it if I haven't worn it for several days in a row. I don't need to go into great detail about the design, because you can see it from the picture.
I am somewhat concerned about it's durability at this point, however. Just recently, I was wearing it and I noticed that the second hand had somehow come loose, so that it spins when I move my arm quickly. It is still ticking though. I have not done any strenuous activities with the watch. I live a very low-key life. I am a student, and I work in a library. Nothing active or "extreme" by any stretch of the imagination. I have several less expensive watches from different brands that I have owned for years and never had any problems like this, so it seems strange that this one which cost double the other watches would be defective. Fortunately, Stuhrling Original watches come with a two year warrantee, and I will be sending it in to get fixed for free, I just have to pay for shipping.
So all in all, it's a beautiful watch, keeps great time, but be aware that it might break on you for no apparent reason. It still keeps time and looks good at this point, but the second hand moves freely.
