Customer Reviews: Average Rating:  Rating :  - Great Looking Watch With Useful Functionality
This is my second Eco-Drive, among many other watches, and I am extremely pleased with the brand and this watch in particular. The workmanship is outstanding and the weight is balanced for everyday wear: not too heavy so it feels like a brick, but not too light either. The main winning point for me is the cleanliness of the display. Time is easy to read and the luminous markers function great at night. Although there are many markings on the scale bezels, they do not affect the overall cleanliness of the face of the watch. The scales can be quite useful, but as many people have pointed out, the markings are small and difficult to read even for people with perfect vision. I do not consider this a flaw, since it would have been impossible to include this functionality and keep the size of the watch to manageable proportions.
One very useful feature for frequent travelers is that the hour hand can be individually adjusted without having to change the minutes. Another feature useful for people doing business in dual time-zones (or expatriates wishing to know the time in their native country) is the fact that the watch keeps dual time. However, the watch will only allow time difference in one hour increments, so dual time in half-hour increment time-zones (i.e. India) can't be kept.
The size of the watch is bold, without being cumbersome, and sits well on smaller wrists like mine. The Nighthawk withstands sporting activities without any problems: I've surfed, skied and mountain biked with it.
In conclusion, my overall impressions are extremely positive for day-to-day wear, and even for some more informal occasions. Great watch, highly recommended. + See Full Customer Review |  |
